CAUTIONlThe parking sensors may not operate proper-
ly under the following conditions:
• The sensors or surroundings have been
wiped by hand.
• The stickers or accessories have been at-
tached to the sensors or surroundings.
• The sensors or surroundings are covered
with ice, snow, or mud.
• When the temperature difference is too
large.
• The sensors are frozen.
• The system receives ultrasonic noise from
other sources (the horns of other vehicles, motorcycle engines, brakes, radios, pour-
ing rain, splashing water, snow traction device (tyre chains), etc.).
• The sensors are extremely hot or cold
(while the vehicle is parked for a long pe- riod of time under a blazing sun or in coldweather).
• The vehicle tilts significantly.
• The vehicle is driven on a rough road
(with a bumpy, gravel, hilly, or grassysurface).
• The vehicle is too close to an obstacle.
• Immediately after Plug-in Hybrid EV
System starting.
l The parking sensors may not properly detect
the following objects:
• Objects that are thin, such as wire nets or
ropes.
• Objects that absorb sound waves, such as
snow.
• Objects that are shaped with a sharp an-
gle.CAUTION• Objects with a smooth surface, such as
glass.
• Objects that are low, such as kerbstones.
l If the bumper has been exposed to an im-
pact, the sensors may fail and prevent the
system from functioning properly. Have the vehicle inspected at a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.NOTEl When the sensor is received ultrasonic noise
from outside, the sensor of the correspond- ing portion will blink at a constant frequen- cy. When they are not received the noise and
return to normal operation.To operate
E00648100149
To operate the system, the operation mode is
put in ON. When the parking sensors are op-
erated, the indication lamp (A) will turn on. To stop the operation, press the “SONAR”
switch and the indication lamp (A) goes off.

7-100OGGE18E1Starting and driving7
WARNINGlWhen trying to rock your vehicle out of a
stuck position, make sure that there are
no people nearby. The rocking motion can make your vehicle suddenly lurch for-
ward or backward, and injure any by- standers.
On a flooded road
l Do not drive on a flooded road. If you
drive on a flooded road, not only does the Plugin Hybrid EV System stop but
there may be a failure like electric leak- age or short circuit.
If you inevitably had to run on a flooded
road and the vehicle was exposed to wa- ter, be sure to have your vehicle inspec-
ted by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point.
l If there is water on the brakes after driv-
ing through puddles or washing the vehi- cle, resulting in temporarily ineffective
brakes. In such cases, lightly depress the brake pedal to see if the brakes operate
properly. If they do not, lightly depress the pedal several times while driving in
order to dry the brake pads.
l When driving in rain or on a road with
many puddles a layer of water may form
between the tyres and the road surface.
This reduces a tyre’s frictional resistance
on the road, resulting in loss of steering stability and braking capability.
To cope with this, observe the following
items: A- Drive your vehicle at slow speed.B- Do not drive on worn tyres.
C- Always maintain the specified tyre
inflation pressures.
On a snow-covered or frozen road
l When driving on a snow-covered or fro-
zen road, it is recommended that you use snow tyres or snow traction device (tyre chains).
Refer to the “Snow tyres” and “Snow
traction device (tyre chains)” sections.
l Avoid high-speed operation, sudden ac-
celeration, abrupt brake application and
sharp cornering.
l Depressing the brake pedal during travel
on snowy or icy roads may cause tyre
slippage and skidding. When traction be-
tween the tyres and the road is reduced the wheels may skid and the vehicle can-
not readily be brought to a stop by con- ventional braking techniques. Brakingwill differ, depending upon whether you
have anti-lock brake system (ABS). As your vehicle is equipped with ABS,brake by pressing the brake pedal hard,
and keeping it pressed.
l Allow extra distance between your vehi-
cle and the vehicle in front of you, and avoid sudden braking.
l Accumulation of ice on the braking sys-
tem can cause the wheels to lock. Pullaway from a standstill slowly after con-
firming safety around the vehicle.CAUTIONl Do not press the accelerator pedal rapidly. If
the wheels break free of the ice, the vehicle
could suddenly start moving and possibly cause an accident.
On a bumpy or rutted road
Drive as slow as possible when driving on
bumpy or rutted roads.

Snow traction device (tyrechains)
E01002103336
If snow traction device (tyre chains) have to
be used, ensure that they are fitted only on
the drive wheels (front) in accordance with
the manufacturer’s instructions.
On 4WD vehicles in which the driving power is distributed preferentially to the front wheels, ensure that the snow traction device
(tyre chains) are fitted on the front.
Use only snow traction device (tyre chains) which are designed for use with the tyresmounted on the vehicle: use of the incorrect
size or type of snow traction device (tyre
chains) could result in damage to the vehicle body.
Contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point before putting on a snow traction device (tyre chains). The max. snowtraction device (tyre chains) height is as fol-
lows.

When driving with a snow traction device
(tyre chains) on the tyres, do not drive faster than 50 km/h (30 mph). When you reach
roads that are not covered in snow, immedi- ately remove the snow traction device (tyre
chains).
CAUTIONl Choose a clear straight stretch of road where
you can pull off and still be seen while you
are fitting the snow traction device (tyre
chains).
l Do not fit snow traction device (tyre chains)
before you need them. This will wear out
your snow traction device (tyre chains) and the road surface.
l After driving around for 100-300 meters,
stop and retighten the snow traction device
(tyre chains).
l Drive carefully and do not exceed 50 km/h
(30 mph). Remember that preventing acci-
dents is not the purpose of snow traction de- vice (tyre chains).CAUTIONl When snow traction device (tyre chains) are
installed, take care that they do not damage the disc wheel or body.
l An aluminium wheel can be damaged by a
snow traction device (tyre chains) whiledriving. When fitting a snow traction device (tyre chains) on an aluminium wheel, take
care that any part of the snow traction device
(tyre chains) and fitting cannot be brought into contact with the wheel.
l When installing or removing a snow traction
device (tyre chains), take care that hands and
other parts of your body and not injured by the sharp edges of the vehicle body.NOTEl The laws and regulations concerning the use
of snow traction device (tyre chains) vary.
Always follow local laws and regulations.
In most countries, it is prohibited by the law to use of snow traction device (tyre chains) on roads without snow.Wiper blade rubber
