The main purpose of an EDR is to record, incertain crash or near
crash-like situations,
such as an airbag deployment or hitting aroad obstacle, data that
will assist in under-
standing how a vehicl
e’s systems performed.
The EDR is designed to record data related tovehicle dynamics and safety systems for ashort period of time,
typically 30 seconds or
less.The EDR in this vehicle is designed to recordsuch data as:How various systems
in your vehicle were
operating;Whether or not the driver and front pas-senger safety belts we
re buckled/fastened;
How far (if at all) the driver was depress-ing the accelerator and/or brake pedal;and,How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better under-standing of the circumstances in whichcrashes and injuries occur.
To read data recorded by an EDR, specialequipment is required, and access to the vehi-cle or the EDR is needed. In addition to thevehicle manufacturer, ot
her parties, such as
law enforcement, that have the special equip-ment, can read the information if they haveaccess to the vehicle or the EDR.

The driver’s seat position sensor is attachedto the seat rail and provides the airbag controlunit with information on the seat’s fore-aftposition. The airbag control unit controlsdeployment of the driver’s front airbag inaccordance with the information it receivesfrom this sensor.If there is a problem involving the driver’sseat position sensor, the SRS warning light in
the instrument panel will come on. Refer to“SRS warning light/dis
play” on page 4-41.

EDR data are recorded by your vehicle onlyif a non-trivial crash si
tuation occurs; no data
are recorded by the EDR under normal driv-ing conditions and no personal data (e.g.,name, gender, age, a
nd crash location) are
recorded. However, ot
her parties, such as
law enforcement, could combine the EDRdata with the type of
personally identifying
data routinely acquire
d during a crash inves-
tigation.

WA R N I N GIf the SRS warning light or warning dis-play comes on, have the vehicle inspectedby an authorized Mitsubishi Motorsdealer as soon as possible.Please observe the following instructionsto ensure that the driver’s seat positionsensor can operate correctly.• Adjust the seat to the correct position,and sit well back
against the seatback.
Refer to “Front seats” on page 4-4.• Do not recline the seatback more thannecessary when driving.• Do not place metallic objects or luggageunder the front seat.
If the vehicle is involved in a severeimpact, have the SRS sensors inspected byan authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer as
soon as possible.

After driving on snow or icy roads, removeany snow and ice which may have be leftaround the wheels. On vehicles that have ananti-lock braking syst

damage the wheel spee

cables located at each wheel.

The power steering system operates while theengine is running. It helps reduce the effortneeded to turn the steering wheel.The power steering sy
stem has mechanical
steering capability in case the power assist islost. If the power assist is lost for some rea-son, you will still be able to steer your vehi-cle, but you will notice it takes much moreeffort to steer. If this happens, have your vehi-cle inspected at an authorized MitsubishiMotors dealer or a repair facility of yourchoice.

WA R N I N GDo not stop the engine while the vehicle ismoving. Stopping the engine would makethe steering wheel extremely hard to turn,possibly resulting
in an accident.
NOTE
During repeated full-lock turning of thesteering wheel (for example, while you aremanoeuvring the vehicle into a parkingspace), a protection f
unction may be acti-
vated to prevent overheating of the powersteering system. This f
unction will make the
steering wheel graduall
y harder to turn. In
this event, limit your turning of the steeringwheel for a while. When the system hascooled down, the steering effort will returnto normal.If you turn the steering wheel while the vehi-cle is stationary with the headlights on, theheadlights may become
dim. This behavior
is not abnormal. The he
adlights will return to
their original brightness after a short while.

The Forward Collision Mitigation System(FCM) is designed to help reduce the risk of acollision with a vehicle or a pedestrianstraight ahead of your vehicle. The FCM usesa sensor (A) to determine the distance andrelative speed to a vehi
cle and a pedestrian in
front. The FCM is not designed as an auto-matic driving system or as a collision avoid-ance system. When your vehicle is approaching a vehicleor a pedestrian strai
ght-ahead in your path
and the FCM judges that there is the risk of acollision, the system
will give audible and
visual warnings.When the FCM judges that a collision withthe vehicle or the pedest
rian straight-ahead is
imminent, the system will automaticallyapply moderate braking to warn you to applythe brakes immediately. When the FCM judges that a collision withthe vehicle or the pedest
rian straight-ahead is
highly unavoidable, th
e system will apply
emergency braking to reduce the severity ofthe collision and, if possible, to avoid the col-lision.Stop lights are illuminated during automaticbraking.

• When your vehicle is on a chassis dyna-mometer or free rollers.• If the windshield on or surrounding thesensor is cracked or scratched.NOTE
When depressing the brake pedal while auto-matic braking is applie
d, the brake pedal will
feel firm. This is normal. Depress the brakepedal harder to apply
greater braking force.
During the automatic

N00629001709
For a safer and more enjoyable trip, alwayscheck for the following:Before starting the vehicle, make certainthat you and all passengers are seated andwearing their seat
belts properly (with
children in the rear seat, in appropriaterestraints), and that all the doors and theliftgate are locked.
Move the driver’s seat as far backward aspossible, while keeping good visibility,and good control of the steering wheel,brakes, accelerator, and controls. Checkthe instrument panel indicators and multi-information display
for any possible prob-
lem.Similarly, the front
passenger seat should
also be moved as fa
r back as possible.
Make sure that infants and small childrenare properly restrained in accordance withall laws and
regulations.
Check these by selecting the defroster mode,and set the blower swit
ch on high. You should
be able to feel the air blowing against thewindshield. Refer to “Defrosti
ng or defogging (wind-
shield, door windows)” on page 7-12Check all the tires for heavy tread wear oruneven wear patterns. Look for stones, nails,glass, or other objects
stuck in the tread. Look
for any tread cuts or
sidewall cracks. Check
the wheel nuts for tightness, and the tires(including spare tire) for proper pressure.
Replace your tires before they are heavilyworn out.As your vehicle is equi
pped with a tire pres-
sure monitoring system, there is a risk ofdamage to the tire inflation pressure sensorswhen the tire is replaced on the rim. Tirereplacement should, onl
y, be performed by an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.Have someone watch wh
ile you turn all the
exterior lights on and off. Also check the turnsignal indicators and hi
gh-beam indicators on
the instrument panel.Check the ground under the vehicle afterparking overnight, for
fuel, water, oil, or
other leaks. Make sure
all the fluid levels are
correct. Also, if you
can smell fuel, you need
to find out why imme
diately and have it
fixed.
