WARNING•Do not open the tailgate, for example to
remove or place an item in the cargo area.
Charging may affect the operation of elec-
tric medical devices and result in serious personal injury or death.
l Do not charge when the EV charging ca-
ble is coiled up.
Doing so the cable may be heated and this might result in fire.
l Before charging, make sure that there is
no foreign matter such as dust at the nor- mal charge port and the normal charge
connector.
At this time, do not touch the normal charge port.
l When the normal charge connector is
connected to the charge port, prevent for- eign matter such as water or dust from
entering in the connection.
Connection with foreign matter such as
water or dust may cause fire or an electric shock. Do not perform charging if there
might be strong exposure to water at the
connection.
l Never pull the cable to remove the plug.
And never submerge the EV charging connector, control box or plug in water.
l Please observe the following in order to
prevent accidents during charging such as
electrocution.
• Only use the EV charging cable that is
supplied with the vehicle.WARNING• Do not charge another vehicle by the
EV charging cable. The cable may overheat and this may result in a fire.
• When charging outdoors, make sure to
use an outlet that is protected from wa-
ter entering.
• Do not perform charging with the vehi-
cle coverd by a car cover, except for the
MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENUINE
car cover.
• Do not connect or disconnect the plug
and connector with wet hands.
l While it is normal for the connector and
charging cable to become warm during
charging, discontinue use immediately if
the connector or charging cable becomes hot to the touch.
l While it is normal for the control box to
become warm during charging, discontin- ue use immediately if the control box be-
comes hot to the touch.
l If abnormal smells are detected or the ve-
hicle produces smoke, quickly stop charg-
ing.
l Do not perform charging in a poorly ven-
tilated area or in an enclosed area. Keep sparks, cigarettes, and flames away from
the auxiliary battery.
Flammable gas generated from the auxili- ary battery during charging may be trap-
ped, resulting in explosion.
If charging is inevitably required, venti- late the area well.WARNINGl Grasp the normal charge connector when
connecting or disconnecting the EVcharging cable.
Grasping the cable may damage the cable
and could cause an electric shock, short circuit, and/or fire.CAUTIONl During charging, the cooling fans inside the
engine compartment may automatically be operated even if the operation mode of the
power switch is in OFF.
Keep your hands away from the cooling fan during charging.
l Do not perform charging from other power
source like a generator. Doing so could cause a malfunction.NOTEl If the charge connector is not easily connec-
ted to the charge port due to foreign materialentering, never force the connection. Doing so could damage the charging equipment or
the vehicle. Please contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.

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.

4.Check the coolant level in the reserve
tank (B and C).
B: Reserve tank for engine cooling
C: Reserve tank for EV cooling system
5. Add coolant to the radiator and/or re-
serve tank if necessary. (Refer to the
“Maintenance” section.)
WARNINGl Make sure that the engine and the Plug-in
Hybrid EV system have cooled down be- fore removing the radiator cap (D) and
the reserve tank cap (E), because hot steam or boiling water will otherwise gush from the filler port and may scald you.CAUTIONl Do not add coolant while the engine is hot.
Suddenly adding cold coolant could damage the engine. Wait for the engine to cool
down, then add coolant a little at a time.
6. Examine the radiator hoses for coolant
leakage and the drive belt for looseness
or damage.
If there is anything wrong with the cool-
ing system or drive belt, we recommend
you to have it checked and repaired.
