2018 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER PHEV brake

Forward collision warningfunction
E00635401129
If the system judges that there is a risk of
your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a pe-
destrian in front, this function warns you of
the potential hazard with visual and audible
alarms.
When this function is triggered, a buzzer
sounds and, at the same time, a “BRAKE!”
message appears on the information screen of
the multi-information display.
The forward collision warning function oper- ates at the following vehicle speed:
l Against a vehicle: Approximately
15 km/h (9 mph) to 140 km/h (87 mph).
l Against a pedestrian: Approximately
7 km/h (5 mph) to 65 km/h (40 mph).
CAUTIONl Under certain conditions, the audible alarm
may not work at all or may be scarcely audi- ble. Do not overly rely on the system; if your
vehicle is in danger of collision, take all nec- essary collision-evading actions, such as de-
pressing the brake pedal strongly regardless of whether the system is activated or not.FCM brake prefill function
E00635201055
If the system judges that there is a risk of
your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a pe-
destrian in front, this function prefills the
brake line with additional brake fluid to make
the brakes more responsive to your brake pedal operation.
The FCM brake prefill function operates at
the following vehicle speed:
l Against a vehicle: Approximately
5 km/h (3 mph) to 80 km/h (50 mph).
l Against a pedestrian: Approximately
5 km/h (3 mph) to 65 km/h (40 mph).
FCM brake assist function
E00635301072
If the system judges that there is a risk of
your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a pe-
destrian in front, this function deploys the
brake assist sooner than the brake assist oper- ation.
The FCM brake assist function operates at
the following vehicle speed:
l Against a vehicle: Approximately
15 km/h (9 mph) to 80 km/h (50 mph).
l Against a pedestrian: Approximately
15 km/h (9 mph) to 65 km/h (40 mph).CAUTIONl The brake assist function may not be trig-
gered when the brake pedal is operated in certain ways.
Do not overly rely on the system; if your ve- hicle is in danger of collision, take all neces-
sary collision-evading actions, such as de-
pressing the brake pedal strongly regardless of whether the system is activated or not.FCM braking function
E00635501380
If the system judges that there is a high risk
of your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a
pedestrian in front, the system applies the
brakes moderately to encourage you to apply the brakes.
If the system judges that a collision is un-
avoidable, it initiates emergency braking con- trol to mitigate collision-caused damages or, if the situation permits, to avoid a collision.When the emergency braking control is trig-
gered, you are warned of the hazard with vis- ual and audible alarms like with the forwardcollision warning function.

Once the emergency braking has worked, you
are alerted to this by a message on the infor- mation screen of the multi-information dis- play.
The FCM braking function operates at the
following vehicle speed:
l Against a vehicle: Approximately
5 km/h (3 mph) to 80 km/h (50 mph).
l Against a pedestrian: Approximately
5 km/h (3 mph) to 65 km/h (40 mph).
CAUTIONl Do not use the FCM as a normal braking.
l After your vehicle has stopped following the
activation of the FCM, automatic braking is released. As the vehicle will then start creep-
ing, be sure to depress the brake pedal to
hold the vehicle stationary.CAUTIONl When applying the brake during the auto-
matic braking condition the pedal will feel firm.
This is not abnormal.
You can apply more pressure to the pedal to
assist in braking.
l In the following situations, the system pro-
vides neither control nor alarming.
• When a vehicle or a pedestrian suddenly
cuts in front of your vehicle.
• When the distance from a vehicle or a pe-
destrian in front is extremely short.
• To an oncoming vehicle.
• When the select position is in the “P”
(PARK) or the “R” (REVERSE) position.

switch
E00635601323
This switch is used to turn on and off the FCM and UMS and also to select your de-
sired collision alarm timing.
When the switch is held pressed, the ON/OFF state of the FCM and UMS changes from ON to OFF and vice versa. If you give
the switch a short press with the FCM in the
ON state, you can change the collision alarm timing.

7-68OGGE18E1Starting and driving7

NOTElWhen the FCM and UMS ON/OFF switch is
held pressed to change the ON/OFF state ofthe FCM, the ON/OFF state of the UMS is
also changed at the same time.
To turn on/off the system
You can switch the system from OFF to ON
or ON to OFF if you hold the FCM and UMS ON/OFF switch pressed when the operation mode is set to “ON”.
Once the system is turned on, the information
screen of the multi-information display shows the collision alarm timing currently se- lected, and the
indicator on the screen
goes out.
When you turn off the system, the following message appears on the screen and the
in-
dicator comes on.
Cycling the operation mode to ON will set
the FCM back ON.
NOTEl The indicator is combined with the
“UMS OFF” indicator.
To change alarm timing
Give a short press to the FCM and UMS
ON/OFF switch to change the timing at which the frontal collision alarm is triggered. Every time you press the switch, the alarm
timing changes between three levels: “FAR”
(earlier alarming), “MIDDLE” (normally alarming) or “NEAR” (later alarming).
As you make selection, the selected alarm timing is displayed on the information screenof the multi-information display. Even after
turning off the FCM or setting the operation mode to “OFF”, the system retains your last
selected alarm timing in memory.
When “FAR” is selected
When “MIDDLE” is selected
When “NEAR” is selected
CAUTIONl For the FCM brake prefill, the FCM brake
assist and the FCM braking functions, the function triggering timing cannot be changed.When a problem is detected

SituationOperation displayBuzzerWhen an obstacle is detected behind your vehicle with the se-
lector lever in the “R” position, if the accelerator pedal is de-
pressed promptly and too strongly, the motor output is sup- pressed for up to approximately 5 seconds.WARNINGl Do not overly rely on the UMS. It is never a substitute for your safe and careful driving. Always be careful to operate the accelerator pedal perceiv-
ing the environmental conditions. Misoperation can lead to a serious accident.
l As the UMS is not a function to keep the stop condition of the vehicle, depress the brake pedal according to the environmental condition.
l Depending on the situation, the system does not operate even if the vehicle or the obstacle in front and behind your vehicle and this may cause the
vehicle to start suddenly and lead to a serious accident.
l If the vehicle is trapped in the railway crossing because the system is activated as the crossing barrier is misrecognised as an obstacle, escape from
the railway crossing without any panic by one of the following methods.
• Release the foot from the accelerator pedal and lightly depress the pedal again.
• Turn the system OFF. (Continuously press the FCM and UMS ON/OFF switch for more than 3 seconds.)
• Continuously depress the accelerator pedal for more than 5 seconds.
• Repeat to press the accelerator pedal quickly to its full stroke more than three times.
l Do not perform inspection of the system operation on your own. Depending on the situation, this may cause the system to not operate properly and
lead to a serious accident.
