Proximity alarm
E00634701079
While the ACC is active, if your vehicle ap-
proaches too closely to a vehicle in front be-cause the ACC cannot allow for an adequate
deceleration in such cases as rapid decelera-
tion of the vehicle in front or apparition of a vehicle cutting in front of your vehicle, the
ACC gives a warning by sounding a buzzer and displaying a message.
If this happens, increase the following dis-
tance by depressing the brake pedal or mak- ing other decelerating control.
CAUTIONl When the ACC is not in use, turn off the
system to prevent it from operating by mis-take and an unexpected accident.
l Never operate the ACC from outside the ve-
hicle.CAUTIONl Neither control nor a warning are performed
in the following situation.
• Something other than a vehicle ap-
proaches, such as a pedestrian.
• When there is an abnormality in the sys-
tem (When the ACC detectes an abnor-mality, “ACC SERVICE REQUIRED” is
indicated.)
l The ACC makes neither acceleration nor de-
celeration control and only issues warning inthe following situation.
• The vehicle in front is parked or moving
at an extremely slow speed.
l The ACC may not be able to maintain the
set speed or the distance to a vehicle in front
and may not alert the driver, if the system
cannot detect the vehicle in front properly, in
the following situations.
• When a vehicle cuts in front of your vehi-
cle very closely.
• When a vehicle in front is offset to the left
or right.
• When a vehicle in front is towing a trailer.
• The vehicle in front is moving at a speed
much lower than your vehicle’s.
• A motorcycle or a bicycle.
• A freight trailer that is not carrying a con-
tainer.
• The vehicle has a protruding load from
the carrier.
• When the vehicle has a low weight.
• When the vehicle has an extremely high
ground clearance.CAUTION• When there is repeated steep uphill and
downhill driving.
• When driving on an irregular or uneven
road surface.
• When being driven in a tunnel.
• When you are carrying extremely heavy
loads in the rear seats or luggage area.
• When the Plug-in Hybrid EV System is
starting.
• When driving in curved sections of road
including their entrance/outlet or running
beside a closed lane in a traffic work or
similar zone.
• When the cover part in front of the sensor
and the sensor become dirty or have snow
and ice adhering to it*.
• When water, snow or sand on the road are
extorted by the vehicle in front or an on- coming vehicle*.
*: After the ACC control has been cancelled automatically due to detection of a state of
decline in performance, the ACC will not operate in the temporary condition and will
inform the driver by buzzer and indication.
When the ACC is in the state in which it can operate, indication is cancelled. Should indi-
cations not be cancelled, then there is a pos- sible abnormality in the system.

CAUTIONlImproperly handling the system components may result in such problems as degraded sensor performance and ultimately in an accident.
Be sure to take the following precautions to keep the system in good operating conditions.
• Avoid application of strong shock loads to the sensor.
• The sensor should be kept clean.
• Do not cover the sensor with a sticker or anything.
• Do not modify the suspension of your vehicle.
l If the bumper has been exposed to an impact, the sensors may fail and prevent the system from functioning properly. Have the vehicle inspected a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
