Dipper (High/Low beamchange)
E00506201557
When the lamp switch is in the “” posi-
tion, the beam changes from high to low (or
low to high) each time the lever is pulled fully (1). While the high-beam is on, the
high-beam indication lamp in the instrument
cluster will also illuminate.
Headlamp flasher
E00506300199
The high-beams flash when the lever is pulled slightly (2), and will go off when it is
released.
When the high-beam is on, the high-beam in- dication lamp in the instrument cluster will il-
luminate.
NOTEl The high-beams can also flash when the
lamp switch is OFF.
l If you turn the lamps off with the headlamps
set to high-beam, the headlamps are auto- matically returned to their low-beam setting
when the lamp switch is next turned to the
“
” position.
Automatic high-beam system*
E00538200090
The system switches the headlamp beams
(high/low) when the sensor (A) senses an il- luminant such as lights of a vehicle in frontor oncoming vehicle or street lamp.
WARNINGl The headlamp beams (high/low) may not
be switched automatically under certain
circumstances. Do not overestimate the system. It is the responsibility of the driv-
er to switch the headlamp beams (high/
low) manually to suit each driving condi- tion.
Refer to “Dipper (High/Low beam
change)” on page 6-56How to use the automatic high-
beam system
E00551500045
1. Rotate the lamp switch to the “” posi-
tion or “AUTO” position when the Plug-
in Hybrid EV System is operating.
NOTEl If the headlamps are on when the lamp
switch is in the “AUTO” position, the auto- matic high-beam system is triggered.

NOTElThe headlamps may remain at low beam (or
be switched from high-beam to low beam)
when a reflective object (e.g. street lamp,
traffic signal, noticeboard and signboard) re- flects light.
l Any of the following factors may influence
the headlamp beam switching timing:
• How brightly the exterior lamps of a vehi-
cle in front or oncoming vehicle illumi-
nate.
• Movement or direction of a vehicle in
front or oncoming vehicle.
• Only right or left exterior lamp of a vehi-
cle in front or oncoming vehicle is illumi-
nating.
• A vehicle in front or oncoming vehicle is
a motorcycle.
• Road conditions (gradient, bends and road
surface).
• The number of occupants and luggage
load.
l The automatic high-beam system recognises
environmental conditions by sensing a lightsource ahead of your vehicle. Therefore, you
may feel like something is not quite right
when the headlamp beams are switched au- tomatically.
l The system may not detect a light vehicle
such as a bicycle.
l The system may not detect an ambient
brightness precisely. This causes the traffic to be dazzled by high-beam or the low beam
to be maintained. In such cases, you should switch the headlamp beams manually.NOTE• In bad weather (heavy rain, fog, snow or
sandstorm).
• The windscreen is dirty or fogged up.
• The windscreen is cracked or broken.
• The sensor is deformed or dirty.
• A light that is similar to the headlamps or
tail lamps is shining around your vehicle.
• A vehicle in front or oncoming vehicle is
driven without lights, the exterior lamps are dirty or discoloured, or the directionof the headlamp beams is adjusted im- properly.
• It becomes dark and bright suddenly and
continuously around your vehicle.
• Your vehicle is driven on uneven surfa-
ces.
• Your vehicle is driven on a winding road.
• A reflective object such as a noticeboard
or a mirror reflects a light ahead of yourvehicle.
• When lamps of the vehicle in front or
headlamps of an oncoming vehicle blend
into the other lamps.
• The rear end of a vehicle in front (such as
a container truck) reflect a strong light.
• Your vehicle’s headlamp is broken or
dirty.
• Your vehicle is inclined due to a flat tyre
or towing.
• The warning display appears.
(Refer to “System problem warning” on
page 6-58.)
l Observe the precautions below to maintain
good usage conditions:NOTE• Do not attempt to disassemble the sensor.
• Do not affix a sticker or label on the
windscreen near the sensor.
• Avoid overload.
• Do not modify your vehicle.
• When the windscreen is replaced, use the
MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENUINE
parts.System problem warning

[When the sensor is malfunctioning]
NOTElIf the sensor or its surrounding area reaches
an extremely high temperature when parking the vehicle under a blazing sun, the “AHBSERVICE REQUIRED” warning display
may appear.
If the warning display remains even after the temperature of the sensor or its surrounding area has been in range, please contact a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
Sensor is too hot or cold
If the system becomes temporarily unavaila-
ble due to a high or low temperature of thesensor, the following warning display will
appear.
After the temperature of the sensor has been
in range, the system will automatically return
to operation.
If the warning display does not disappear af- ter waiting for a while, there is a possibilitythat the automatic high-beam system has a
malfunction. Contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point for in-
spection of the system.
Windscreen is dirty
If the automatic high-beam system deter- mines that its performance has been degra-ded, the warning display will appear.
This can occur when:
l Foreign objects, such as dirt, snow or
ice, adhere to the windscreen of the sen-
sor portion.
l There are adverse weather conditions,
such as rain, snow, sand storms, etc.
l A vehicle in front or an oncoming vehi-
cle is splashing water, snow or dirt.
When the sensor performance returns, the au-
tomatic high-beam system will resume opera- tion.
If the warning display does not disappear af-
ter waiting for a while, there is a possibility that the sensor has a malfunction. Contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point for inspection of the sensor.Welcome light

If the lever is put in the “AUTO” position,the rain sensor (A) will detect the extent of
rain (or snow, other moisture, dust, etc.) and the wipers will operate automatically.
Keep the lever in the “OFF” position if the windscreen is dirty and the weather is dry.
Wiper operation under these conditions can scratch the windscreen and damage the wip-
ers.CAUTIONl With the ignition switch or the operation
mode in ON and the lever in the “AUTO”
position, the wipers may automatically oper-
ate in the situations described below.
If your hands get trapped, you could suffer injuries or the wipers could malfunction. Be sure to turn the ignition switch to the
“LOCK” position or put the operation mode
in OFF, or move lever to the “OFF” position to deactivate the rain sensor.CAUTION• When cleaning the outside surface of the
windscreen, if you touch on top of the
rain sensor.
• When cleaning the outside surface of the
windscreen, if you wipe with a cloth on
top of the rain sensor.
• When using an automatic car wash.
• A physical shock is applied to the wind-
screen.
• A physical shock is applied to the rain
sensor.NOTEl To protect the rubber parts of the wipers,
this operation of the wipers does not take
place even if the lever is put in the “AUTO” position when the vehicle is stationary and
the ambient temperature is about 0 °C or lower.
l Do not cover the sensor by affixing a sticker
or label to the windscreen. Also, do not put any water-repellent coating on the wind-screen. The rain sensor would not be able to
detect the extent of rain, and the wipers
might stop working normally.
l In the following cases, the rain sensor may
be malfunctioning.
For further information, we recommend you
to consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point.
• When the wipers operate at a constant in-
terval despite changes in the extent of
rain.NOTE• When the wipers do not operate even
though it is raining.
l The wipers may automatically operate when
things such as insects or foreign objects are affixed to the windscreen on top of the rainsensor or when the windscreen is frozen.
Objects affixed to the windscreen will stop
the wipers when the wipers cannot remove them. To operate the wipers again, move the
lever in the “LO” or “HI” position.
Also, the wipers may operate automatically due to strong direct sunlight or electromag-
netic wave. To stop the wipers, place the lever in the “OFF” position.
