2017 MITSUBISHI SHOGUN traction control

NOTElImmediately after reconnection of the bat-
tery cable, the indication lamp will illu-
minate and the Active Stability Control
function will stop operating. If the vehicle is
driven and the
indication lamp goes off,
the Active Stability Control function will
again start operating.
If the indication lamp illuminates again or il-
luminates even though the battery has not been disconnected, an insufficient battery
voltage or other problems may be the reason.
We recommend you to have your vehicle in- spected.
Active traction control function
E00614100041
The active traction control function maintains
traction on slippery road surfaces by auto-
matically controlling the engine output and applying the brakes so the driving wheels are prevented from spinning.
The active traction control function automati-
cally turns ON when the ignition switch is
turned to the “ON” position.
CAUTIONl If the temperature in the braking system in-
creases excessively due to continuous brake
control on a slippery road surface, a warning
buzzer will sound intermittently to warn the driver. If driving continues in spite of the
buzzer and the temperature in the braking
system increases further, the
indication
lamp will illuminate, the warning buzzer will sound continuously for approximately
3 seconds, and active traction control func- tion operation will be suspended to protectthe braking system. (Normal operation of thevehicle will not be affected.) If the vehicle is
stopped and the
indication lamp goes off,
the active traction control function will start
operating again.

The indication lamp (1) should illuminate
when the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position and should go off after a few seconds.
If the indication lamp stays on or does not il-
luminate when the ignition switch is turned to
the “ON” position, we recommend you to
have your vehicle inspected.
When the active Traction Control System op-
erates, the active traction control function in-dication lamp (1) blinks and the indication
lamp for the wheel (2) being subjected to an- tispin control also blinks.
Example indication: Active traction con- trol function controlling front-right wheel
NOTEl In the event of a fault in the Active Stability
Control function, the and indication
lamps illuminate. As a result, an indication
of the active traction control function is limi- ted to flashing of the indication lamp for the
wheel (2) being subjected to antispin con- trol.

CAUTIONlIf the vehicle is towed with the ignition
switch in the “ON” position and only the
front wheels or only the rear wheels raised off the ground, the active traction control
function may operate, resulting in an acci-
dent. When towing the vehicle with the front wheels raised, keep the ignition switch in the
“LOCK” or “ACC” position. When towing the vehicle with the rear wheels raised, keep the ignition switch in the “ACC” position.

Cruise control is an automatic speed controlsystem that keeps a set speed. It can be acti-vated at about 40 km/h (25 mph) or more.
CAUTIONl When you do not wish to drive at a set
speed, turn off the cruise control for safety.
l Do not use cruise control when driving con-
ditions will not allow you to stay at the same
speed, such as in heavy traffic or on roads that are winding, icy, snow-covered, wet,
slippery, on a steep downhill slope.NOTEl Cruise control may not be able to keep your
speed on uphills or downhills.
l Your speed may decrease on a steep uphill.
You may use the accelerator pedal if you
want to stay at your set speed.
l Your speed may increase to more than the
set speed on a steep downhill. You must use the brake to control your speed. As a result, the set speed driving is deactivated.Cruise control switches

TowingE00801505888
If your vehicle needs to be tow- ed
If towing is necessary, we recommend you to have it done by your MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or a
commercial tow truck service.

In the following cases, transport the vehicle
using a tow truck.
l The engine runs but the vehicle does not
move or abnormal noise is produced.
l Inspection of the vehicle’s underside re-
veals that oil or some other fluid is leak- ing.
If a wheel gets stuck in a ditch, do not try to tow the vehicle. Please contact your author-
ized MITSUBISHI MOTORS dealer or a
commercial tow truck service for assistance.

Only when you cannot receive a towing serv-
ice from a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point or commercial tow truck service, tow your vehicle carefully in accord-
ance with the instructions given in “Emer- gency towing” in this part.

The regulations concerning towing may dif-
fer from country to country. It is recommen-
ded that you obey the regulations of the area where you are driving your vehicle.Towing the vehicle by a tow
truckCAUTIONl This vehicle must not be towed by a tow
truck using sling lift type equipment (Type A) as illustrated. Using a sling lift will dam-age the bumper and front end.
l Be sure to shift the transfer shift lever to
“2H” position and transport the vehicle with the driving wheels on a carriage (Type C, D
or E) as illustrated. Never try to tow with the transfer shift lever in “4H”, “4HLc” or “4LLc” positions and with the front or rearwheels on the ground (Type B or Type C) as illustrated. This could result in driving sys-
tem damage or the vehicle may jump at the
carriage. If you cannot shift the transfer shift lever to the “2H” position or the transmis-sion is malfunctioning or damaged, transport the vehicle with all wheels on a carriage
(Type D or E) as illustrated.
l As your vehicle equipped with the Active
Stability & Traction Control system (ASTC), if the vehicle is towed with the ig-
nition switch in the “ON” position and only
the front wheels or only the rear wheels raised off the ground, the active Traction
Control System may operate, resulting in an accident.
