2018 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER PHEV Owner's Manual (in English)

Corner and back sensor loca-tions
There are 8 sensors (A) in the front and rearbumper.
Detection areas
Depending on whether the vehicle is equip-
ped with a towing bar, you can change the parking sensors between the standard modeand the towing bar mode. The towing bar
mode changes the system to exclude the area in which the towing bar is mounted from the
detection areas.
Vehicles without a towing bar
The detection areas are within approximately
60 cm (A) from the front and corner sensors
and 125 cm (B) from the back sensors.
Vehicles with a towing bar
The detection areas are within approximately 60 cm (A) from the front and corner sensors
and 125 cm (B) from the back sensors. The
non-detection areas (C) are within approxi- mately 20 cm (D) from the bumper.
NOTEl The sensors do not detect objects located in
the area directly below or near the bumper. If the height of an object is lower than the
mounted position of the sensors, the sensors
may not continue detecting it even if they detected it initially.
For information on how to change the detec-
tion areas, please refer to “Changing the de- tection areas” on page 7-97.
Parking sensors (Front/Rear)*
7-99OGGE18E1Starting and driving7

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

sensors, the display for the malfunctioning
sensor will blink and the warning buzzer will sound for approximately 5 seconds.
Even after the buzzer and display has stopped
warning, the indication lamp (A) on “SO- NAR” switch will continue blinking until the
system reverts to the normal state. Have the vehicle inspected at a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.Rear-view camera*
E00618402310
The rear-view camera is a system that showsthe view behind the vehicle on a screen of the
DISPLAY AUDIO, the Smartphone Link Display Audio or the MITSUBISHI Multi-
Communication System (MMCS).
Rear-view camera*
7-102OGGE18E1Starting and driving7 Example: Corner sensor (left) malfunctioning

CAUTIONlThe rear-view camera is an assistance sys-
tem that enables the driver to check for ob- stacles behind the vehicle. Its range of view
is limited, so you should not overly depend on it. Please drive just as carefully as you
would if the vehicle did not have the rear-
view camera.
l Be sure to visually confirm safety around the
vehicle with your own eyes. Do not depend entirely on the rear-view camera.
Range of view of rear-view
camera
The range of view of the rear-view camera is
limited to the area shown in the illustrations.
It cannot show both sides and the lower part of the rear bumper, etc.
When reversing, be sure to visually confirm safety around the vehicle.
Location of rear-view camera
The rear-view camera (A) is integrated into
the part near the tailgate handle.

How to use the rear-view cam-
era
When you put the select position to the “R” position with the operation mode in ON, the
view behind the vehicle will automatically appear on the screen of the DISPLAY AU-DIO, the Smartphone Link Display Audio or
the MITSUBISHI Multi-Communication
System (MMCS). When you put the select position to any other position, the screen will
return to its original indication.
CAUTIONl The rear-view camera has a special lens that
can make objects shown on the screen ap-
pear to be closer or further away than they
actually are.
Rear-view camera*
7-103OGGE18E1Starting and driving7

NOTElBecause the rear-view camera has a special
lens, the lines on the ground between park-
ing spaces may not look parallel on the screen.
l In the following situations, the screen indi-
cation may be difficult to see. There is no abnormality.
• Low light (nighttime).
• When the light of the sun or the light from
a vehicle’s headlamps shines directly into
the lens.
l If the camera is hot and is then cooled by
rain or a car wash, the lens can mist up. This
phenomenon does not indicate a malfunc- tion.
l It is not possible to fully see obstacles when
the lens is dirty. If the lens becomes conta- minated by water droplets, snow, mud or oil,
wipe off the contamination, taking care not to scratch the lens.
l Please observe the following cautions. Ig-
noring them could lead to a camera malfunc-
tion.
• Do not subject the camera to physical
shock.
• Do not apply wax to the camera.
• Do not splash the camera with boiling wa-
ter.
• Do not disassemble the camera.Reference lines on the screen
E00649100029
Reference lines and upper surface of the rear
bumper (A) are displayed on the screen.
l Red line (B) indicates approximately
50 cm behind the rear bumper.
l Two Green lines (C) indicate approxi-
mately 20 cm outside of the vehicle
body.
l Short transverse lines (1 to 3) indicate
distance from the rear bumper.Check surroundings for safety.
1. Approximately at the rear edge of the
rear bumper
2. Approximately 100 cm
3. Approximately 200 cm
Errors between the display and the actual road surface
The reference lines for distance and vehicle
width are based on a level, flat road surface. In the following cases, errors are produced between the display reference lines and the distance on the actual road surface.
When the rear of the vehicle is weighed
down with the weight of passengers and luggage in the vehicle
The reference lines are displayed closer than
the actual distance.
Therefore when there is an obstacle on the
upward slope, it appears farther than its ac- tual position.

When solid objects are located close to the vehicle
When solid objects are located close to the
vehicle, the displayed distance on the screen
may differ from the actual distance.
Because the reference lines do not contact the body of the truck, it looks as if it would not
hit the vehicle in following illustration.
However, the vehicle may hit the truck be-
cause the body of the truck strays onto the course in reality.

7-105OGGE18E1Starting and driving7 Check surroundings for safety.

When approaching to solid objects
The reference lines for distance and vehicle
width are intended to indicate the distance to a flat object such as a level, flat road surface. This may make the distance to a projecting
object shown on the screen differ from the
actual distance to the projecting object. Do not use them as a guide for distances to solid
objects.
Example: On the screen the point B appears the nearest, then the point C and A in order of
distance. The points A and B actually are the same distances from the vehicle, and the
point C is farther off than the points A and B.
Multi Around Monitor*
E00645000147
The Multi Around Monitor is a system that shows the view combined with four cameras,i.e., “Front-view camera”, “Side-view cam- eras (right and left)” and “Rear-view camera”
on a screen of the inside rear-view mirror, the DISPLAY AUDIO, the Smartphone Link
Display Audio or the MITSUBISHI Multi-
Communication System (MMCS). It assists drivers to park their vehicles in parking
spaces and to parallel park their vehicles.CAUTIONl The Multi Around Monitor is an assistance
system that enables the driver to check the
safety around the vehicle. The range where the image can be displayed is limited. Do
not place too much confidence in the Multi
Around Monitor and try to drive carefully in the same way as for the vehicle not equipped
with the Multi Around Monitor.
Its range of view is limited, so you should not overly depend on it. Please drive just as
carefully as you would if the vehicle did not have the Multi Around Monitor.
l Be sure to visually confirm safety around the
vehicle with your own eyes. Especially, the four corners of the vehicle become blind
spots where an object is not displayed on the Multi Around Monitor. Do not depend en-
tirely on the Multi Around Monitor.CAUTIONl Do not use the Multi Around Monitor with
the door mirrors folded in and/or with the doors and/or the tailgate open. It will prevent
the Multi Around Monitor from displaying
the appropriate range.
