• Keep away from magnetic key rings.
• Keep away from audio systems, personal
computers, TVs, and other equipment that generates a magnetic field.NOTE• Keep away from devices that emit strong
electromagnetic waves, such as cellular
phones, wireless devices and high fre- quency equipment (including medical de-
vices).
• Do not clean with ultrasonic cleaners or
similar equipment.
• Do not leave the key where it may be ex-
posed to high temperature or high humidi- ty.
l The plug-in hybrid EV system is designed so
that it will not start if the ID code registered
in the immobilizer computer and the key’s ID code do not match. Refer to the “Elec-
tronic immobilizer” section for details and key usage.

When the operation mode of the power
switch is put in ON, if the brake fluid is low,
this warning is displayed.
The warning lamp in the instrument cluster also illuminates.CAUTIONl If this warning stays illuminated and does
not go out while driving, there is a danger of ineffective braking. In this case, immediate-
ly park your vehicle in a safe place and we recommend you to have it checked.
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.
• Depress the brake pedal harder than usual.
Even if the brake pedal moves down to
the very end of its possible stroke, keep it pressed down hard.CAUTION• Should the brakes fail, use the regenera-
tive brake to reduce your speed and keep
pulling the Electric parking brake switch.
Refer to “Electric parking brake” on page

If the engine oil pressure drops while the
Plug-in Hybrid EV System is operating, thewarning display is displayed on the informa-
tion screen in the multi information display.
CAUTIONl If the vehicle is driven while the engine oil
is low, or the oil level is normal but the warning is displayed, the engine may burn
out and be damaged.
l If the warning is displayed while the Plug-in
Hybrid EV System is operating, immediately
park your vehicle in a safe place and check
the engine oil level.CAUTIONl If the warning is displayed while the engine
oil level is normal, have it inspected.Combination headlamps

Headlamps
NOTElDo not leave the lights on for a long time
while the Plug-in Hybrid EV System is sta-tionary (not operating). A run-down auxili- ary battery could result.
l When it rains, or when the vehicle has been
washed, the inside of the lens sometimes be-
comes foggy, but this does not indicate a
functional problem.
When the lamp is switched on, the heat will remove the fog. However, if water gathers
inside the lamp, we recommend you to have it checked.

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

Warning lampWarning display
If there is a malfunction in the system, the
ABS warning lamp will come on and the
warning display will appear on the informa- tion screen in the multi information display.
Under normal conditions, the ABS warning
lamp only comes on when the operation
mode is put in ON and goes off a few sec- onds later.
CAUTIONl Any of the following warning lamp/display
behaviour indicates that the ABS is not func-tioning and only the standard brake system
is working. (The standard brake system is functioning normally.) If this happens, takeyour vehicle to a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.
• When the operation mode is put in ON,
the warning lamp does not come on or it remains on and does not go off.
• The warning lamp comes on while driv-
ing.
• The warning display appears while driv-
ing.If the warning lamp/display il-

If only the ABS warning lamp/ display illuminate
l Avoid hard braking and high-speed driv-
ing. Stop the vehicle in a safe place.
Restart the Plug-in Hybrid EV System and check to see whether the lamp goes
out after a few minutes driving; if it then remains off during driving, there is no
problem.
However, if the lamp does not go out, or if it lights up again when the vehicle is driven, we recommend you to have the
vehicle checked as soon as possible.
l If you start Plug-in Hybrid EV System
when the auxiliary battery voltage is in-
sufficient, ABS warning lamp/display may illuminate, but this is not a failure
of ABS. When the drive battery is charg-
ed, the auxiliary battery is also charged, and the warning lamp/display will go
out. If the warning lamp/display contin- ues illuminating even after the battery is
sufficiently charged or the warning
lamp/display illuminates frequently, have your vehicle inspected by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point.

The concentration should be checked beforethe start of cold weather and anti-freeze add-
ed to the system if necessary.Washer fluid
E01000702214
Open the washer fluid reservoir cap andcheck the level of washer fluid with the dip- stick.
If the level is low, replenish the container with washer fluid.
NOTEl The washer fluid container serves the wind-
screen, rear window and headlamps.During cold weather
To ensure proper operation of the washers at
low temperatures, use a fluid containing ananti-freezing agent.
Brake fluid
E01000801755
To check the fluid level
The fluid level must be between the “MAX”
and “MIN” marks on the reservoir.The fluid level is monitored by a float. When
the fluid level falls below the “MIN” mark, the brake fluid warning lamp lights up.The fluid level falls slightly with wear of the brake pads, but this does not indicate any ab-
normality.

The fluid in the master cylinder should be checked when doing other work under thebonnet. The brake system should also be checked for leakage at the same time.
If the fluid level falls markedly in a short length of time, it indicates leaks from the
brake system.
If this occurs, we recommend you to have the
vehicle checked.
