The rear-view camera is a system that showsthe view behind the vehicle on a screen of the
MITSUBISHI Multi Communication System
(MMCS), the Smartphone Link Display Au-
dio or the DISPLAY AUDIO.
Rear-view camera*
6-79OKTE17E1Starting and driving6

WARNINGlThe rear-view camera is an assistance sys-
tem that enables the driver to check for
obstacles behind the vehicle. Its range of view is limited, so you should not overly depend on it. Please drive just as carefully
as you would if the vehicle did not have the rear-view camera.
l Be sure to visually confirm safety around
the vehicle with your own eyes. Do not de-
pend entirely on the rear-view camera.
Range of view of rear-view
camera
The range of view of the rear-view camera is
limited to the area shown in the illustrations.
It cannot show both sides and the lower part of the rear bumper, etc.
When reversing, be sure to visually confirm safety around the vehicle.
Location of rear-view camera
The rear-view camera (A) is integrated into
the part near the rear gate handle.

How to use the rear-view cam-
era
When you place the gearshift lever or the se- lector lever in the “R” position with the igni-
tion switch in the “ON” position or the opera- tion mode in ON, the view behind the vehiclewill automatically appear on the screen of theMITSUBISHI Multi Communication System
(MMCS), the Smartphone Link Display Au-
dio or the DISPLAY AUDIO. When you move the gearshift lever or the selector lever to any other position, the screen will return toits original indication.
CAUTIONl The rear-view camera has a special lens that
can make objects shown on the screen ap- pear to be closer or further away than they
actually are.
Rear-view camera*
6-80OKTE17E1Starting and driving6

NOTElBecause the rear-view camera has a special
lens, the lines on the ground between park-
ing spaces may not look parallel on the screen.
l In the following situations, the screen indi-
cation may be difficult to see. There is no abnormality.
• Low light (nighttime).
• When the light of the sun or the light from
a vehicle’s headlamps shines directly into
the lens.
• If a fluorescent light shines directly into
the lens, the screen indication may be
flicker.
There is no abnormality.
l If the camera is hot and is then cooled by
rain or a car wash, the lens can mist up. This
phenomenon does not indicate a malfunc- tion.
l If the atmospheric temperature is extremely
hot or extremely cold, the rear-view camera
images may not be clear.
There is no abnormality.
l If a radio set is installed near the camera, the
rear-view camera images may cause electri- cal system interference and the system may
stop functioning properly.
l It is not possible to fully see obstacles when
the lens is dirty. If the lens becomes conta-
minated by water droplets, snow, mud or oil, wipe off the contamination, taking care not
to scratch the lens.
l Please observe the following cautions. Ig-
noring them could lead to a camera malfunc-tion.NOTE• Do not subject the camera to a physical
shook such as striking it strongly or
throwing a thing at it.
• Do not adhere organic substances, waxes,
oil remover, and glass cleaner to the cam- era.
If adhered to them, immediately wipe off.
• Do not splash the camera with boiling wa-
ter.
• Never spray or splash water on the cam-
era or around it.
• Do not disconnect, disassemble or modify
the camera.
• Do not scratch the camera, as this may
cause damage to the rear-view camera im-
ages.
Reference lines on the screen
Reference lines and upper surface of the rear
bumper (A) are displayed on the screen.
l Red line (B) indicates approximately
50 cm behind the rear bumper.
l Two Green lines (C) indicate approxi-
mately 20 cm outside of the vehicle
body.
l Short transverse lines (1 to 3) indicate
distance from the rear bumper.Check surroundings for safety.
1- Approximately at the rear edge of the
rear bumper
2- Approximately 100 cm
3- Approximately 200 cm
CAUTIONl Due to the number of people in the vehicle,
the fuel quantity, the weight and positioning
of luggage, and/or the condition of the road surface, the lines in the view from the rear- view camera may not be accurately posi-
tioned relative to the actual road.
Use the reference lines only as a guideline, and always do a safety check of your behind
and surroundings directly while driving.

Errors between the display andthe actual road surface
The reference lines for distance and vehicle
width are based on a level, flat road surface. In the following cases, errors are produced between the display reference lines and the
distance on the actual road surface.
l When the rear of the vehicle is weigh-
ed down with the weight of passengers
and luggage in the vehicle
The reference lines are displayed closer than the actual distance.
Therefore when there is an obstacle on the
upward slope, it appears farther than its ac-
tual position.
A- Actual objects B- Objects shown on the screen
l When there is an upward slope behind
the vehicle
The reference lines are displayed closer than the actual distance.
Therefore when there is an obstacle on the
upward slope, it appears farther than its ac-
tual position.
A- Actual objects B- Objects shown on the screen
l When there is a downward slope be-
hind the vehicle
The reference lines are displayed farther than the actual distance.
Therefore when there is an obstacle on the
downward slope, it appears closer than its ac-
tual position.
A- Actual objects B- Objects shown on the screen
l When solid objects are located close to
the vehicle
When solid objects are located close to the
vehicle, the displayed distance on the screen
may differ from the actual distance.
Because the reference lines do not contact the
body of the truck, it looks as if it would not hit the vehicle in following illustration.
Rear-view camera*
6-82OKTE17E1Starting and driving6

However, the vehicle may hit the truck be-cause the body of the truck strays onto the
course in reality.
l When approaching to solid objects
The reference lines for distance and vehicle
width are intended to indicate the distance toa flat object such as a level, flat road surface.
This may make the distance to a projecting
object shown on the screen differ from the actual distance to the projecting object. Do
not use them as a guide for distances to solid
objects.
Example: On the screen the point B appears the nearest, then the point C and A in order of
distance. The points A and B actually are the same distances from the vehicle, and thepoint C is farther off than the points A and B.Cargo loads
E00609901123
Cargo loads precautionsCAUTIONl When loading luggage, be careful to the fol-
lowing.
• Stow cargo and luggage in the cargo area
whenever possible.
• Distribute cargo or luggage evenly not to
be unbalanced in weight.
• Do not place cargo or luggage on the in-
strument panel.
Also, do not stack up cargo or luggage on the front passenger’s seat or the rear seat.
Having the driver’s vision blocked, and
your cargo being thrown inside the cabin if you suddenly have to brake can cause a
serious accident or injury.Trailer towing
E00610001863
In order to tow a trailer with your vehicle,
when having a trailer towing device mounted that meets all relevant regulations in your
area, consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point.

Check that your towing bar coupling ball
does not obscure your vehicle’s licence plate when the trailer or caravan is disconnected. Ifit obscures the licence plate, please remove
the towing bar coupling ball. And if the tow-
ing bar coupling ball is lockable by using a
key or any kind of tools, please remove the coupling ball and use a towing bar coupling
ball which can be removed or repositioned
without the use of a key or any kind of tools instead.
The regulations concerning the towing of a
trailer may differ from country to country.
You are advised to obey the regulations in
each area.CAUTIONl Danger of Accident!
A towing bar should be fitted according to
MITSUBISHI MOTORS guidelines.NOTEl If you are going to tow a trailer, pay careful
attention to the following points.Maximum towable weight with
brake and maximum trailer- nose weight
Never exceed the maximum towable weight
with brake and the maximum trailer-nose weight as listed in the specifications. (Referto “Vehicle weight” on page 11-11.)
If you tow a trailer at an altitude of more than
1,000 m above sea-level, reduce your weight
by 10 % of the gross combination weight for
every increase of 1,000 m above sea-level, as the engine output is lowered owing to de-
crease in atmospheric pressure.
