WARNINGlBefore using the RCTA, read this entire
section to fully understand the limitations
of this system. Failure to follow instruc- tions could result in an accident.WARNINGl Never rely solely on the RCTA when
backing up. The RCTA is an aid system. It is not a substitute for your safe andcareful driving. Always check visually be-
hind and all around your vehicle for other vehicles, persons, animals or obstructions.
The performance of the RCTA may vary depending on driving, traffic and/or sur-rounding conditions.NOTEl The Blind Spot Warning lamps in the out-
side rear-view mirrors on both sides will blink, even when only one vehicle is ap-
proaching from one side.Detection areas
The detection area is shown as illustrated.
CAUTIONl In certain situations, the RCTA may not de-
tect a vehicle in the detection areas. Some of these situations include:
Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)*
7-84OGGE17E1Starting and driving7
CAUTION•When the reversing speed of your vehicle
is approximately 18 km/h (11 mph) or
higher.
• When the speed of an approaching vehicle
is approximately 7 km/h (5 mph) or less.
• If the sensor detection area is blocked by
a nearby object, such as a wall or parked vehicle.
• When a vehicle is approaching from
straight behind your vehicle.
• When your vehicle is exiting from an an-
gled parking spot.
• Immediately after the RCTA has been
turned on.
• Immediately after the operation mode of
the power switch has been put in ON.
• When the bumper surface around the sen-
sor is covered with dirt, snow and ice, etc.
• When the sensor becomes extremely hot
or cold, such as after the vehicle has been parked for a prolonged time under the
blazing sun or in cold weather.

When approaching to solid objects
The reference lines for distance and vehicle
width are intended to indicate the distance to a 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 the
point C is farther off than the points A and B.
Multi Around Monitor*
E00645000147
The Multi Around Monitor is a system that shows the view combined with four cameras,i.e., “Front-view camera”, “Side-view cam- eras (right and left)” and “Rear-view camera”
on a screen of the inside rear-view mirror, the DISPLAY AUDIO, the Smartphone Link
Display Audio or the MITSUBISHI Multi-
Communication System (MMCS). It assists drivers to park their vehicles in parking
spaces and to parallel park their vehicles.CAUTIONl The Multi Around Monitor is an assistance
system that enables the driver to check the
safety around the vehicle. The range where the image can be displayed is limited. Do
not place too much confidence in the Multi
Around Monitor and try to drive carefully in the same way as for the vehicle not equipped
with the Multi Around Monitor.
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 Multi Around Monitor.
l Be sure to visually confirm safety around the
vehicle with your own eyes. Especially, the four corners of the vehicle become blind
spots where an object is not displayed on the Multi Around Monitor. Do not depend en-
tirely on the Multi Around Monitor.CAUTIONl Do not use the Multi Around Monitor with
the door mirrors folded in and/or with the doors and/or the tailgate open. It will prevent
the Multi Around Monitor from displaying
the appropriate range.

CAUTIONlAs your vehicle is equipped with the rain
sensor, place the wiper switch lever in the“OFF” position to deactivate the rain sensor
before washing the vehicle. Otherwise, the wipers will operate in the presence of waterspray on the windscreen and may get dam-
aged as a result.
l Refrain from excessively using a car wash as
its brushes may scratch the paint surface,
causing it to lose its gloss. Scratches will be
especially visible on darker coloured vehi-
cles.
l Never spray or splash water on the electrical
components in the engine compartment. Do- ing so could have an adverse effect on the
Plug-in Hybrid EV system startability.
Exercise caution also when washing the un-
derbody; be careful not to spray water into the engine compartment.
l Some types of hot water washing equipment
apply high pressure and heat to the vehicle. They may cause heat distortion and damage
to the vehicle resin parts and may result in flooding of the vehicle interior.
Therefore:
• Maintain a distance of approx. 70 cm or
more between the vehicle body and the washing nozzle.
• When washing around the door glass,
hold the nozzle at a distance of more than
70 cm and at right angles to the glass sur- face.CAUTIONl After washing the vehicle, drive the vehicle
slowly while lightly depressing the brake
pedal several times in order to dry out the
brakes.
Leaving the brakes wet could result in re- duced braking performance. Also, there is a possibility that they could freeze up or be-
come inoperative due to rust, rendering the vehicle unable to move.
l When using an automatic car wash, pay at-
tention to the following items, referring to the operation manual or consulting a car
wash operator. If the following procedure is not followed, it could result in damage to
your vehicle.
• The outside mirrors are retracted.
• The wiper arms are secured in place with
tape.
• As your vehicle is equipped with roof
rails, consult a car wash operator before using a car wash.
• As your vehicle is equipped with the rain
sensor, place the wiper switch lever in the“OFF” position to deactivate the rain sen-
sor.
• Make sure that the charging lid and the
fuel lid are completely closed.
• If your vehicle is equipped with the Ultra-
sonic misacceleration Mitigation System,
turn the system off by using “FCM and
Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation System ON/OFF switch” on page 7-69.During cold weather
Salt and other chemicals spread on the roads
in some areas in winter can have a harmful effect on the vehicle body. You should there-
fore wash the vehicle as often as possible in accordance with our care-instructions. It is
recommended to have a preservative applied
and the underfloor protection checked before and after the cold weather season.
After washing your vehicle, wipe off all wa- terdrops from the rubber parts around the
doors to prevent the doors from freezing.
NOTEl To prevent freezing of the weatherstripping
on the doors, bonnet, etc., they should be treated with silicone spray.Waxing
E00901000919
Waxing the vehicle will help prevent the ad-
herence of dust and road chemicals to the paintwork. Apply a wax solution after wash- ing the vehicle, or at least once every three
months to assist displacing of water.
Do not wax your vehicle in direct sunlight.
You should wax after the surfaces have
cooled.
For information on how to use wax refer to the instruction manual of the wax.
