N00567301132
The brake assist system
is a device assisting
drivers who cannot depress the brake pedalfirmly such as in em
ergency stop situations
and provides greater braking force.If the brake pedal is depressed suddenly, thebrakes will be applied
with more force than
usual.
CAUTIONDo not overly rely on th
e hill start assist to
prevent backwards movement of the vehicle.Under certain circumstances, even when hillstart assist is activated, the vehicle maymove backwards if the brake pedal is not suf-ficiently depressed, if
the vehicle is heavily
loaded, or if the road is very steep or slip-pery.The hill start assist
is not designed to keep
the vehicle stopped in
place on uphill slopes
for more than 2 seconds.When facing uphill, do not rely on using thehill start assist to ma
intain a stopped position
as an alternative to depressing the brakepedal.Doing so could cause an accident.Do not turn the igniti
on switch to the “OFF”,
“LOCK” or “ACC” pos
ition while the hill
start assist is operating. The hill start assistcould stop operating, wh
ich could result in
an accident.

N00517900240
The anti-lock braking system helps preventthe wheels from locking up when braking.This helps maintain vehicle drivability andsteering wheel handling.When using the anti-lock brakes (suddenbraking), steering is slightly differentfrom normal driving conditions. Use thesteering wheel carefully.Always keep a safe distance from thevehicle in front of you. Even if your vehi-cle is equipped with
the anti-lock braking
system, leave a greater braking distancewhen:• Driving on gravel or snow-coveredroads.• Driving on uneven road surfaces.
Operation of anti-lock braking system isnot restricted situations where brakes areapplied suddenly. This system may alsoprevent the wheels from locking whenyou drive over manholes, steel roadworkplates, road markings
, or any uneven road
surface.When the anti-lock braking system is inuse, you may feel the brake pedal vibrat-ing and hear a unique sound. It may alsofeel as if the pedal
resists being pressed.
In this situation, si
mply hold the brake
pedal down firmly. Do not pump thebrake, which will result in reducedbraking performance.
CAUTIONThe brake assist system is not a devicedesigned to exercise
braking force greater
than its capacity. Make sure to always keep asufficient distance be
tween your vehicle and
a vehicle in front of
you without relying too
much on the brake assist system.NOTE
Once the brake assist system is operational,it maintains great braking force even if thebrake pedal is lightly released.To stop its operation, completely removeyour foot from the brake pedal.The brake assist system may become opera-tional when the brake pedal is fullydepressed even if it
has not been depressed
suddenly.When the brake assist system is in use whiledriving, you may feel as if the depressedbrake pedal is soft, the pedal moves in smallmotions in conjunction with the operationnoise, or the vehicle body and the steeringwheel vibrate. This occurs when the brakeassist system is ope
rating normally and does
not indicate faulty
operation. Continue to
depress the brake pedal.You may hear an operation noise when thebrake pedal is suddenl
y or fully depressed
while stationary. This does not indicate amalfunction and the brake assist system isoperating normally.
When the anti-lock brake system warninglight or only active st
ability control warning
light illuminate, the brake assist system innot functioning.
Anti-lock braking system Driving hints
NOTE
CAUTIONThe anti-lock braking system cannot preventaccidents. It is your
responsibility to take
safety precautions a
nd to drive carefully.
To prevent failure of the anti-lock brakingsystem, be sure all 4 wheels and tires are thesame size and the same type.NOTE
A whining sound is emitted from the enginecompartment when driving immediatelyafter starting the engine. These are the nor-mal sounds the anti-lock braking systemmakes when performing a self-check. It doesnot indicate
a malfunction.

N00559100147
The Active stability
control (ASC) takes
overall control of the
anti-lock braking sys-
tem, traction control function and skid controlfunction to help maintain the vehicle’s control
and traction. Please read

On slippery surfaces, the traction controlfunction prevents the drive wheels from spin-ning excessive, thus helping the vehicle tostart moving from a stopp
ed condition.
It also
provides sufficient driv
ing force and steering
performance as the vehicle turns while press-ing the acceleration pedal.
CAUTIONIf the warning display appears while theengine is running, have
the vehicle inspected
by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer ora repair facility of
your choice as soon as
possible. It may become harder to turn thesteering wheel.
Active stability control (ASC)
CAUTIONDo not over-rely on the ASC. Even the ASCcannot prevent the natural laws of physicsfrom acting on the vehicle. This system, likeany other system, has
limits and cannot help
you to maintain traction and control of thevehicle in all circumstances. Reckless driv-ing can lead to accident
s. It is the driver’s
responsibillty to drive carefully, This meanstaking into account the traffic, road and envi-ronmental conditions.Be sure to use the same specified type andsize of tire on all four
wheels. Otherwise, the
ASC may not work properly.Do not install any aftermarket limited slipdifferential (LSD) on your vehicle. The ASCmay stop functioning properly.
NOTE
An operation noise may be emitted from theengine compartment in the following situa-tions. The sound is associated with checkingthe operations of the ASC. At this time, youmay feel a shock from the brake pedal if youdepress it. These do not indicate a malfunc-tion.• When the ignition switc
h is set to the “ON”
• When the vehicle is driven for a while afterthe engine is turned on.
When the ASC is acti
vated, you may feel a
vibration in the vehicl
e body or hear a whin-
ing sound from the engine compartment.This indicates that th
e system is operating
normally. It does not i
ndicate a malfunction.
When the anti-lock braking system warninglight is illuminated, the ASC is not active.

tion will start operat-
ing again.NOTE
The indicator may come on when youstart the engine. This means that the batteryvoltage momentarily dropped when theengine was started. It
does not indicate a
malfunction, provided th

Tire pressure monitoring system
Features and controls 5-139
5
Each tire, including the spare (if provided),should be checked monthly when cold andinflated to the inflation pressure recom-mended by the vehicle manufacturer on thevehicle placard or tire
inflation pressure label.
(If your vehicle has tires of a different sizethan the size indicated on the vehicle placardor tire inflation pressure label, you shoulddetermine the proper ti
re inflation pressure
for those tires.)As an added safety feat
ure, your vehicle has
been equipped with a tire pressure monitoringsystem (TPMS) that illuminates a low tirepressure telltale when
one or more of your
tires is significantly under-inflated.Accordingly, when the low tire pressure tell-tale illuminates, you
should stop and check
your tires as soon as possible, and inflatethem to the proper pressure. Driving on a sig-nificantly under-inflated
tire causes the tire to
overheat and can lead
to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiencyand tire tread life, and may affect the vehi-cle’s handling and stoppi
ng ability. Please
note that the TPMS is
not a substitute for
proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’sresponsibility to
maintain corre
ct tire pres-
sure, even if under-infl
ation has not reached
the level to trigger illumination of the TPMSlow tire pressure telltale.Your vehicle has also
been equipped with a
TPMS malfunction indica
tor to indicate when
the system is not operating properly. TheTPMS malfunction indicator is combinedwith the low tire pressure telltale.When the system detects a malfunction, thetelltale will flash for approximately one min-ute and then remain c
ontinuously illuminated.
This sequence will c
ontinue upon subsequent
vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunctionexists.When the malfunction indicator is illumi-nated, the system may not
be able to detect or
signal low tire pr
essure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions ma
y occur for a variety
of reasons, including the installation ofreplacement or alternate tires or wheels on thevehicle that prevent the TPMS from function-ing properly. Always
check the TPMS mal-
function telltale after
replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure thatthe replacement or alternate tires and wheels
CAUTIONIf the tire pressure monitoring system warn-ing light does not illumi
nate when the igni-
tion switch is turned to the “ON” position orthe operation mode is put in ON, it meansthat the tire pressure monitoring system isnot working properly. Have the systeminspected by an authorized MitsubishiMotors dealer.In such situations, a malfunctioning of thesystem may be preventing the monitoring ofthe tire pressure. Avoid sudden braking,sharp turning and high-speed driving.If a malfunction is detected in the tire pres-sure monitoring system, the tire pressuremonitoring system warning light will blinkfor approximately 1 mi
nute and then remain
continuously illuminate
d. The warning light
will issue further warnings each time theengine is restarted as
long as the malfunction
exists.Check to see whether the warning light goesoff after few minutes driving.If it then goes off during driving, there is noproblem.However, if the warning light does not gooff, or if it blinks again when the engine isrestarted, have the
vehicle inspected by an
authorized Mitsubish
i Motors dealer.
In such situations, a malfunctioning of thesystem may be preventing the monitoring ofthe tire pressure. For safety reasons, whenthe warning light appears while driving,avoid sudden braking, sharp turning andhigh-speed driving.
