The Active stability
control (ASC) takes
overall control of the
anti-lock braking sys-
tem, traction control function and skid control function to help maintain the vehicle’s controland traction. Please read
this section in con-
junction with the page on the anti-lock brak- ing system, traction control function and skidcontrol function. Anti-lock braking system

On slippery surfaces, the traction control function prevents the drive wheels from spin- ning excessive, thus helping the vehicle tostart moving from a stopp
ed condition.
It also
provides sufficient driv
ing force and steering
performance as the vehicle turns while press-ing the acceleration pedal.
N00559300019
The skid control function is designed to helpthe driver maintain control of the vehicle on slippery roads or during rapid steering
CAUTION If the warning display appears while the engine is running, have
the vehicle inspected
by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of
your choice as soon as
possible. It may become harder to turn thesteering wheel.
Active stability control (ASC)
CAUTION Do not over-rely on the ASC. Even the ASC cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle. This system, like any other system, has
limits and cannot help
you to maintain traction and control of the vehicle in all circumstances. Reckless driv- ing can lead to accident
s. It is the driver’s
responsibillty to drive carefully, This means taking into account the traffic, road and envi- ronmental conditions. Be sure to use the same specified type and size of tire on all four
wheels. Otherwise, the
ASC may not work properly. Do not install any aftermarket limited slip differential (LSD) on your vehicle. The ASC may stop functioning properly.NOTE
 An operation noise may be emitted from the engine compartment in the following situa-tions. The sound is associated with checkingthe operations of the ASC. At this time, you may feel a shock from the brake pedal if you depress it. These do not
indicate a malfunc-
tion. • When the ignition switch is set to the “ON” position. • When the vehicle is driven for a while after the engine is turned on.
 When the ASC is acti
vated, you may feel a
vibration in the vehicl
e body or hear a whin-
ing sound from the engine compartment.This indicates that th
e system is operating
normally. It does not i
ndicate a malfunction.
 When the anti-lock braking system warning light is illuminated, the ASC is not active.

your vehicle if it becomes too close to the vehicle in front.The cruising set speed can be set from 25 mph (40 km/h) to 110 mph (180 km/h). The distance can be select
ed from three levels.
If the vehicle in front decelerates, the ACC will automatically apply limited braking to maintain the distance, a
nd if the front vehicle
then accelerates, the ACC will automatically accelerate your vehicle up to the set speed. If your vehicle is approa
ching too close to the
front vehicle, a buzzer will sound and a warn- ing is shown in the multi information display.When the ACC detects no vehicle ahead, the set speed will be maintained. Conventional cruise cont
rol mode without the
distance control can
also be selected.
Stop lights are illuminated during automatic braking.

N00577100035
While the ACC is turned on, indicators for the ACC are shown in the multi information display.
WA R N I N G Before using the ACC, read this entire sec- tion to understand th
e limitations of this
system. Failure to follow instructionscould result in an accident. Never rely solely on the ACC. The ACC is not a collision avoidance system or an automatic driving system. It is designed to use only limited brak
ing and is never a
substitute for your safe and careful driv- ing. Always be ready to apply the brakes manually.

N00577400041
If the system judges that there is a risk of your vehicle colliding wi
th a vehicle or the
pedestrian in front, this function warns you of the potential hazard with
visual and audible
alarms.When this function is triggered, a buzzer sounds and, at the sa
me time, a “BRAKE”
message appears on the information screen of the multi-information display. The FCM will also prepare to provide quickbrake response and greater brake force when you apply the brakes. The forward collision
warning function oper-
ates when the following vehicle speed:  Against a vehicle: Approximately 10 mph (15 km/h) to 87 mph (140 km/h).  Against a pedestrian: Approximately 5 mph (7 km/h) to 40 mph (65 km/h).
N00577700073
When the FCM judges th
at a collision with
the vehicle or the pedest
rian straight-ahead is
imminent, the FCM will automatically applymoderate braking to warn the driver to apply the brakes immediately. If the FCM judges that the collision is highlyunavoidable, it will
automatically apply
emergency braking to reduce the severity of the collision and, if possible, to avoid the col- lision. When the FCM applies emergency braking, abuzzer sounds and a warn
ing message is dis-
played in the information screen of the multi- information display. The FCM braking function operates when the following vehicle speed:  Against a vehicle:
Approximately 3 mph
(5 km/h) to 50 mph (80 km/h) mph (5 km/h) to 40 mph (65 km/h)

FCM braking function

WA R N I N G If the ASC is turned off, the FCM braking function will not operate. Refer to “Activestability control” on page 5-100. If the brake pedal is not depressed within 2 seconds after your vehicle has beenstopped by the FCM,
a warning buzzer
will sound and the brakes activated by the FCM will automatically be released.Apply the brakes as
necessary to keep
your vehicle stationary. The FCM will not activate and will not provide either warnin
g or braking in cer-
tain situations. Some of these include:• When the selector lever is in the “P”(PARK) or “R” (R
EVERSE) position.
• When an object other
than a vehicle or a
pedestrian is in front.• When the FCM has detected a problemin the system.• When a vehicle or a
pedestrian suddenly
cuts in front of your vehicle.
 The FCM may or may not detect a motor- cycle, bicycle or wall depending on the sit-uation. The FCM is not designed to detect these objects. The forward collision warning function and/or the FCM brakin
g function may not
activate in certain
situations. Some of
these include:• When a vehicle sudden
ly appears just in
front of your vehicle.• When a vehicle cuts
into your path at a
close distance.
