CAUTIONlThere is a possibility to occur jerk, depend-
ing on a running resistance. Be careful.Adaptive Cruise Control
System (ACC)* E00634601300
The ACC maintains a set speed with no needfor you to use the accelerator pedal. Using a
sensor (A), the system also measures the rela- tive speed and distance between your vehicle
and a vehicle in front, and maintains a set fol- lowing distance between your vehicle and thevehicle in front by automatically decelerating
your vehicle if it becomes too close to the ve-
hicle in front.
The ACC is the driver assist system to make comfortable on a freeway. Stop lamps are il-luminated during automatic braking.
If you desire, a cruise control without inter-
vention of the following distance control is
also selectable.WARNINGl A driver is responsible for driving safely.
Even if the ACC is in use, always grasp the surrounding circumstances and pro- vide for safe driving.
l Never rely solely on the ACC. The ACC is
the system to reduce load on the driver.
The ACC is not a collision avoidance sys- tem or an automatic driving system. The
system is not intended to compensate for driver’s loss of attention to the front dur-
ing driving due to distraction or careless-
ness or supplement a drop in visibility due
to the rain and fog.
It is never a substitute for your safe and careful driving. Always be ready to apply
the brakes manually.WARNINGl This system may not correctly detect the
actual situation depending on the type of
vehicle in front and its conditions, the weather conditions, and the road condi-
tions.
Additionally, the system may be unable to decelerate sufficiently if the vehicle infront applies the brakes suddenly or an-
other vehicle cuts into your path, so your vehicle approaches the front vehicle.
Improper usage of this system or loss of attention to the front by the over-rely on
the ACC, may result in a serious accident.CAUTIONl In the following situations, the system may
become transiently unable to detect a vehicle in front or triggers its control and alarm
functions by detecting something other than a vehicle in front.
Adaptive Cruise Control System (ACC)*

CAUTIONlWhen the cover in front of the sensor or the
sensor is deformed by an accident, please do
not use the ACC and contact a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.NOTEl You cannot operate the regenerative brake
controls while the ACC is operating. If do-
ing so, the buzzer sounds.
l If you turn on the ACC when the select posi-
tion is in “B” (including B0 to B5) position,
the select position is changed to “D” posi- tion.
When ACC detects no vehicle
in front within the set distance
Your vehicle runs at a speed to which you set. It is possible to set the speed between ap-
proximately 40 and 180 km/h.
NOTEl If the vehicle speed exceed the set speed on
down slope, the system automatically ap-plies the brake to maintain the vehicle speed.
l When depressing the brake pedal while auto-
matic brake is applied, the brake pedal is felt solidly, but it is not abnormal. You can moredepress the pedal and it provides greater
braking force.NOTEl Sound is heard while automatic brake, but it
is operated a brake control and not abnor-
mal.
When ACC detects a vehicle in
front within the set distance
The ACC makes control to maintain a fol- lowing distance (time gap) matched with the vehicle speed between your vehicle and a ve-
hicle in front while also activating brakes as necessary.
If the vehicle in front stops, the ACC reacts
to it by stopping your vehicle.
Depress the brake pedal as soon as your vehi- cle comes to a stop.
CAUTIONl Never leave the vehicle when it is stopped
by automatic braking.NOTEl If you do not depress the brake pedal within
2 seconds after an automatic stop, you arealerted to automatic cancellation of the ACC
by a buzzer and display message and the
ACC shift into the ‘standby state’.
The vehicle will then start creeping as the
brakes are released.
When the ACC no longer detects any vehicle
in front, a buzzer sounds and the symbol of
vehicle running ahead disappears from the
screen. The vehicle is slowly accelerated to
resume the set speed and continues running at
that speed.
Adaptive Cruise Control System (ACC)*
7-54OGGE18E1Starting and driving7

NOTE•When the select position is in the “P”
(PARK), the “R” (REVERSE) or the “N”
(NEUTRAL) position.
• While the brake pedal is being depressed.
• When the parking brake is applied.
• When the system determines that its per-
formance has been degraded due to con-
taminants adhered to the sensor.
• When there is any abnormality in the sys-
tem.
To increase the set speed
There are two ways to increase the set speed.
By using the “RES +” switch:
The set speed increases by 1 km/h (1 mph) every time you push up the “RES +” switch
while the ACC control is working. If you hold the switch pushed up, the set speed in-creases in 5 km/h (3 mph) increments.
CAUTIONl The setting speed should be set up the suita-
ble speed according to a situation.NOTEl There is some time lag between the setting
to a new speed and actually accelerating tothat speed.
l Speed setting operation is possible even in
presence of a vehicle in front. In this case, however, the set speed alone increases with-
out actual acceleration taking place.
l When the switch is held pushed, a buzzer
sounds every time the set speed changes.
By using the accelerator pedal:
When the accelerator pedal is depressed
while driving with the ACC control working,you can accelerate the vehicle temporarily
beyond the presently set speed.
At the point where the vehicle speed is raised
to your desired speed, push down and release
the “SET -” switch; the new speed is then set in the system.CAUTIONl The ACC braking control and proximity
alarm functions will not work while the ac- celerator pedal is depressed.NOTEl The set speed indication on the display turns
to “---” when the accelerator pedal is de- pressed. This indication remains as long as
the pedal is in a depressed position.
l The ACC control at the original set speed re-
sumes as soon as you release the accelerator
pedal. Under certain conditions, however,
the braking control and alarming functions of ACC may not work for a short while afterreleasing the accelerator pedal.
Adaptive Cruise Control System (ACC)*

lWhen the select position is in the “P”
(PARK), the “R” (REVERSE) or the
“N” (NEUTRAL) position.
l When the parking brake is applied.WARNINGl Although the set speed driving will be de-
activated when shifting to the “N” (NEU-
TRAL) position, never move the selector lever to the “N” (NEUTRAL) position
while using regenerative braking as it could cause a serious accident.
When the ACC system determines that its
performance has been degraded, a buzzer will sound and a message will be displayed in the multi information display.
This can occur when:
l Foreign objects, such as dirt, snow or
ice, adhere to the surface of the sensor.
l There are adverse weather conditions,
such as rain, snow or sand storms, etc.
l A vehicle in front or an oncoming vehi-
cle is splashing water, snow or dirt.
l Driving on a nonbusy road with a few
vehicles and obstacles in front.
l The brake system is overheating due to
continuous brake control on long down- hill road.
If the display keeps showing the message,
there is a possibility that the ACC has a mal- function. Contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.
When the ACC system detects an abnormali-
ty in the system, the ACC system will be turned off, a buzzer will sound and a message
will be displayed in the multi information display.
If the message remains after the operation mode has been turned to the “OFF” position
and then turned back to the “ON” position, contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point.To turn off ACC
Press the “ACC ON/OFF” switch when ACC
is in the ‘ON state’ to turn off ACC.
NOTEl Pressing the switch turns off the ACC even
if it is engaged.
l The set speed is cancelled when the ACC is
turned off or the operation mode is set to
“OFF”.
l If the ACC is in the ‘ON state’ when the op-
eration mode is set to “OFF”, the system is set to the ‘OFF state’ when the operation
mode is set to “ON” next time.

CAUTIONlCruise control (automatic vehicle speed con-
trol system) does not alert by proximity
alarm and control distance between vehicles to the vehicle in front.Forward Collision
Mitigation System (FCM)* E00635101243
The Forward Collision Mitigation System(FCM) uses a sensor (A) to determine the distance and relative speed to a vehicle and apedestrian in front.
When your vehicle is approaching a vehicle
or a pedestrian straight-ahead in your path
and the FCM judges that there is the risk of a collision, the system gives audible and visualwarnings (forward collision warning func-
tion), increases the brake fluid pressure (FCM brake prefill function), and also pro-vides braking force assistance when you de-press the brake pedal (FCM brake assist func-
tion) to avoid frontal collision.
When the risk of collision increases more, the system causes the brakes to work moderately
to encourage you to apply brakes. If the sys- tem judges that a potential collision is immi- nent, it initiates emergency braking to miti-
gate collision-caused damages or to avoid possible collision (FCM braking function).
Stop lamps are illuminated during automatic
braking.
If you turn the FCM ON/OFF, the Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation System (UMS) al- so turns ON/OFF at the same time. (Vehicles
equipped with the UMS)WARNINGl A driver is responsible for driving safely.
The FCM is the system to mitigate colli- sion-caused damages or to avoid collisionsas much as possible.
The system is not intended to compensate for driver’s loss of attention to the frontduring driving due to distraction or care-
lessness or supplement a drop in visibility
due to the rain and fog.
It is never a substitute for your safe and careful driving. Always be ready to apply
the brakes manually.
l The FCM works to avoid frontal collisions
as much as possible. However, the effect
of its operation varies depending on situa- tions and conditions, such as driving con-ditions, road conditions, and steering, ac-
celeration and braking operations, so that
the performance the function can deliver
is not always the same.
If your vehicle is in danger of collision,
take all necessary collision-evading ac- tions, such as depressing the brake pedal
strongly regardless of whether the system is activated or not.
l Never attempt to test the operation of the
FCM. Doing so could cause an accident,
resulting in serious injury or death.
