2018 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER PHEV air condition

ECO mode switchE00531801111
ECO mode is an eco-driving support system
which automatically controls the Plug-in Hy- brid EV System and air conditioning system to improve fuel efficiency.
When the ECO mode is active, your vehicle
will slowly accelerate even when you press the accelerator pedal.
Refer to “Automatic climate control air con- ditioner” on page 8-04.
The ECO mode starts working by pressing
the ECO mode switch when the operation mode of the power switch is in ON. Push the
switch again and the ECO mode will cancel. While the ECO mode is working, an ECO mode indicator will be turned on.NOTEl Even if the ECO mode is operating, you can
select normal operation of the air condition-
er.
For further information, we recommend you to consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point.
On vehicles equipped with the Smartphone Link Display Audio or the MITSUBISHI
Multi-Communication System (MMCS), it is possible to change the setting by means of
screen operations.
Refer to the separate owner’s manual for de-
tails.Fog lamp switch

Economical drivingE00600102422
For economical driving, there are some tech- nical requirements that have to be met. Theprerequisite for low fuel consumption is a
properly adjusted engine. In order to achieve longer life of the vehicle and the most eco- nomical operation, we recommend you tohave the vehicle checked at regular intervals in accordance with the service standards.
Fuel economy and generation of exhaust gas
and noise are highly influenced by personal
driving habits as well as the particular operat- ing conditions. The following points shouldbe observed in order to minimize wear of
brakes, tyres and engine as well as to reduce
environmental pollution.
Starting and acceleration
Avoid driving when the accelerator pedal ispressed way down, such as for unnecessarily sudden starts, acceleration and deceleration.
Smoothly depress the accelerator pedal.
Observe the speed limit and keep the speed
as constant as possible while driving.
Idling
Parking for a long period with the ready indi-
cator illuminated will shorten the cruising
range.
Speed
The higher the vehicle speed, the more drive
battery is consumed. Avoid driving at full speed. Even a slight release of the accelerator
pedal will save a significant amount of drive battery.
Tyre inflation pressure
Check the tyre inflation pressures at regular intervals. Low tyre inflation pressure increa-ses road resistance and fuel consumption. In addition, low tyre pressures adversely affect
tyre wear and driving stability.
Cargo loads
Do not drive with unnecessary articles in the
luggage compartment. Especially during city
driving where frequent starting and stopping is necessary, the increased weight of the ve-
hicle will greatly affect fuel consumption. Al- so avoid driving with unnecessary luggage or carriers, etc., on the roof; the increased air re- sistance will increase fuel consumption.
Air conditioning
Too much cooling/heating can affect the cruising range, so maintain an appropriatetemperature to extend the cruising range.
Driving, alcohol and drugs
E00600200070
Driving after drinking alcohol is one of the
most frequent causes of accidents.
Your driving ability can be seriously im- paired even with blood alcohol levels far be-
low the legal minimum. If you have been drinking, don’t drive. Ride with a designated non-drinking driver, call a cab or a friend, or
use public transportation. Drinking coffee or
taking a cold shower will not make you so- ber.
Similarly, prescription and nonprescription
drugs affect your alertness, perception and re- action time. Consult with your doctor or
pharmacist before driving while under the in- fluence of any of these medications.WARNINGl NEVER DRINK AND DRIVE.
Your perceptions are less accurate, your
reflexes are slower and your judgment is impaired.Safe driving techniques

NOTElWhen the battery charge mode switch or the
battery save mode switch is pressed while
driving in the EV priority mode, the mode changes to the selected mode.
If the EV switch is pressed, the mode is re- turned to the EV priority mode.
However, the mode may not return to the
EV priority mode depending on the remain- ing power in the drive battery.
l In any of the situations listed below, the EV
priority mode continues even if the engine is
automatically started.
• When the accelerator pedal is fully de-
pressed.
• When the vehicle speed is over 120 km/h.
• When the demister switch is pressed.
l If the ambient temperature is low, the engine
may start for heating when the Plug-in Hy-
brid EV system is started with air condition- er performed.
If you want to stop the engine running, se-
lect the EV priority mode with the operation
mode of the power switch in ON before starting the Plug-in Hybrid EV system.
l In the EV priority mode, the accelerator ped-
al response may be negative even if the ac-
celerator pedal is depressed or released.
l The motor output in the EV priority mode
may decrease due to the deteriorated drive
battery or the ambient temperature falls. In such a case, start the engine by cancelling
the EV priority mode to secure the motor output.Battery save mode switch
E00636800080
The remaining quantity of the drive battery
can be kept if you drive in the EV driving mode at a residential area or use electric
power at the destination.
Moreover, the electric power consumption of
the drive battery can also be held down by
pressing the battery save mode switch while high-speed driving.
If the battery save mode switch is pressed
while the ready indicator is on, the engine will start to keep the remaining quantity of
the drive battery, the vehicle operates in the series hybrid mode or the parallel hybrid mode.
It can be cancelled, if it is pressed once again.If the battery save mode is activated, the fol-
lowing image is displayed on the information screen in the multi-information display.NOTEl The engine may stop when the vehicle stops
or is running.
l Even if the battery save mode switch is
pressed, the engine may not start dependingon the condition of the remaining drive bat-
tery capacity or the Plug-in Hybrid EV sys- tem control.
Additionally, the battery save mode may not
be activated depending on the remaining fuel
quantity.
l When the battery charge mode switch or the
EV switch is pressed while driving in the battery save mode, the mode changes to the
selected mode.
Refer to “Battery charge mode switch” on page 7-28 or “EV switch” on page 7-25.
If the battery save mode switch is pressed, the mode is returned to the battery save
mode.

MITSUBISHI MOTORS GEN-
UINE Parts when replacing the wind-
screen wipers.Tyre pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) E00637100282
The tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS)
uses tyre inflation pressure sensors (A) on the wheels to monitor the tyre inflation pressures.
The system only indicates when a tyre is sig-
nificantly under-inflated.
The base tyre pressure can be set at desired value by the driver with the reset function ex-
ecution. (The low pressure warning threshold is set based on the reset.)
The tyre inflation pressure sensor IDs for two
sets of tyres can be registered by aMITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point, and the valid ID set can be switched by the Multi-information display switch (It’s
beneficial in case of seasonal tyre change be-
tween summer tyre and winter tyre.)NOTEl The tyre pressure monitoring system
(TPMS) is not a substitute for regularlychecking tyre inflation pressures.
Be sure to check the tyre inflation pressures as described in “Tyres” on page 11-10.
l The tyre inflation pressure sensor (B) is in-
stalled in the illustrated location.
• On vehicles with the type 1 sensor which
has the metallic air valve (C), replace
grommet and washer (D) with the new ones when the tyre is replaced.
