2- Keyless operation key (with electric tail-
gate switch)
3- Emergency keyWARNINGl When taking a key on flights, do not press
any switches on the key while on the plane. If a switch is pressed on the plane,
the key emits electromagnetic waves, which could adversely affect the plane’s flight operation.
When carrying a key in a bag, be careful that no switches on the key can be easily
pressed by mistake.NOTEl The key is a precision electronic device with
a built-in signal transmitter. Please observe
the following in order to prevent a malfunc- tion.
• Do not leave in a place that is exposed to
direct sunlight, for example on the dash- board.
• Do not disassemble or modify.
• Do not excessively bend the key or sub-
ject it to strong impacts.
• Do not expose to water.
• Keep away from magnetic key rings.
• Keep away from audio systems, personal
computers, TVs, and other equipment that generates a magnetic field.NOTE• Keep away from devices that emit strong
electromagnetic waves, such as cellular
phones, wireless devices and high fre- quency equipment (including medical de-
vices).
• Do not clean with ultrasonic cleaners or
similar equipment.
• Do not leave the key where it may be ex-
posed to high temperature or high humidi- ty.
l The plug-in hybrid EV system is designed so
that it will not start if the ID code registered
in the immobilizer computer and the key’s ID code do not match. Refer to the “Elec-
tronic immobilizer” section for details and key usage.
l [For vehicles equipped with the security
alarm system]
Pay attention to the following if the security
alarm is set to “Active”.
Refer to “Security alarm system” on page 4-27.
• If the security alarm is in the system
armed mode, the alarm will sound if the
doors are opened after being unlocked with the key, the inside lock knob or the
central door lock switch.
• Even if the security alarm is set to “Ac-
tive”, the system preparation mode is not entered if the keyless entry system or thekeyless operation function was not used to
lock the vehicle.

When the operation mode of the power
switch is put in ON, if the brake fluid is low,
this warning is displayed.
The warning lamp in the instrument cluster also illuminates.CAUTIONl If this warning stays illuminated and does
not go out while driving, there is a danger of ineffective braking. In this case, immediate-
ly park your vehicle in a safe place and we recommend you to have it checked.
l If the brake warning display is displayed and
the brake warning lamp and the ABS warn- ing lamp are illuminated at the same time,
the braking force distribution function will
not operate, so the vehicle may be destabi- lised during sudden braking. Avoid sudden
braking and high-speed driving, stop the ve-
hicle in a safe place, and we recommend you to have it checked.
l The vehicle should be brought to a halt in
the following manner when brake perform-
ance has deteriorated.
• Depress the brake pedal harder than usual.
Even if the brake pedal moves down to
the very end of its possible stroke, keep it pressed down hard.
• Should the brakes fail, use regenerative
brake to reduce your speed and carefully
pull the parking brake lever.
Depress the brake pedal to operate the
stop lamp to alert the vehicles behind you.Oil pressure warning display
E00524901309
If the engine oil pressure drops while the
Plug-in Hybrid EV System is operating, thewarning display is displayed on the informa-
tion screen in the multi information display.
CAUTIONl If the vehicle is driven while the engine oil
is low, or the oil level is normal but the warning is displayed, the engine may burn
out and be damaged.
l If the warning is displayed while the Plug-in
Hybrid EV System is operating, immediately
park your vehicle in a safe place and check
the engine oil level.
l If the warning is displayed while the engine
oil level is normal, have it inspected.Combination headlamps

HeadlampsNOTEl Do not leave the lights on for a long time
while the Plug-in Hybrid EV System is sta-tionary (not operating). A run-down auxili- ary battery could result.
l When it rains, or when the vehicle has been
washed, the inside of the lens sometimes be-
comes foggy, but this does not indicate a
functional problem.
When the lamp is switched on, the heat will remove the fog. However, if water gathers
inside the lamp, we recommend you to have it checked.
Rotate the switch to turn on the lamps.

CAUTIONlAny of the following warning lamp/display
behaviour indicates that the ABS is not func-tioning and only the standard brake system
is working. (The standard brake system is functioning normally.) If this happens, takeyour vehicle to a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.
• When the operation mode is put in ON,
the warning lamp does not come on or it remains on and does not go off.
• The warning lamp comes on while driv-
ing.
• The warning display appears while driv-
ing.If the warning lamp/display il-
luminate while driving
E00607302423
If only the ABS warning lamp/ display illuminate
l Avoid hard braking and high-speed driv-
ing. Stop the vehicle in a safe place.
Restart the Plug-in Hybrid EV System and check to see whether the lamp goes
out after a few minutes driving; if it then remains off during driving, there is no
problem.
However, if the lamp does not go out, or if it lights up again when the vehicle is driven, we recommend you to have the
vehicle checked as soon as possible.
l If you start Plug-in Hybrid EV System
when the auxiliary battery voltage is in-
sufficient, ABS warning lamp/display may illuminate, but this is not a failure
of ABS. When the drive battery is charg-
ed, the auxiliary battery is also charged, and the warning lamp/display will go
out. If the warning lamp/display contin- ues illuminating even after the battery is
sufficiently charged or the warning
lamp/display illuminates frequently, have your vehicle inspected by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point.
If the ABS warning lamp/ display and brake warning
lamp/display illuminate at the same time
Warning lamp
Warning display
The ABS and brake force distribution func- tion may not work, so hard braking could
make the vehicle unstable.
Avoid hard braking and high-speed driving.
Stop the vehicle in a safe place immediately
and contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point.
NOTEl The ABS warning lamp and brake warning
lamp illuminate at the same time and the
warning displays appear alternately on the information screen in the multi informationdisplay.

• 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*.
*: When judging the state that detection per- formance deterioration and the FCM can’t operate temporarily by these situations auto-
matically, “FCM TEMPORARILY NOT
AVAILABLE” message is indicated, and a “FCM OFF” indicator lights up.
Additionally, it may be indicated in the fol- lowing situations.

The concentration should be checked beforethe start of cold weather and anti-freeze add-
ed to the system if necessary.Washer fluid
E01000702214
Open the washer fluid reservoir cap andcheck the level of washer fluid with the dip- stick.
If the level is low, replenish the container with washer fluid.
NOTEl The washer fluid container serves the wind-
screen, rear window and headlamps (if soequipped).During cold weather
To ensure proper operation of the washers at
low temperatures, use a fluid containing ananti-freezing agent.
Brake fluid
E01000801755
To check the fluid level
The fluid level must be between the “MAX”
and “MIN” marks on the reservoir.The fluid level is monitored by a float. When
the fluid level falls below the “MIN” mark, the brake fluid warning lamp lights up.The fluid level falls slightly with wear of the brake pads, but this does not indicate any ab-
normality.

The fluid in the master cylinder should be checked when doing other work under thebonnet. The brake system should also be checked for leakage at the same time.
If the fluid level falls markedly in a short length of time, it indicates leaks from the
brake system.
If this occurs, we recommend you to have the
vehicle checked.
