On slippery surfaces, the traction control function prevents the drive wheels from spin- ning excessive, thus helping the vehicle tostart moving from a stop
ped condition. It also
provides sufficient driving force and steering performance as the vehicle turns while press-ing the acceleration pedal.
N00559301074
The skid control function is designed to helpthe driver maintain control of the vehicle onslippery roads or during rapid steering maneuvers. It works by controlling the engine output and the brake on each wheel.
CAUTION Do not over-rely on the ASC. Even the ASC cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicl
e. This system, like
any other system, has limits and cannot helpyou to maintain traction and control of the vehicle in all circumstances. Reckless driv- ing can lead to accidents. It is the driver’sresponsibillty to drive carefully, This means taking into account the traffic, road and envi- ronmental conditions. Be sure to use the same specified type and size of tire on all four wheels. Otherwise, theASC may not work properly. Do not install any aftermarket limited slip differential (LSD) on your vehicle. The ASC may stop functioning properly.
NOTE
 An operation noise may be emitted from the engine compartment in the following situa- tions. The sound is associated with checking the operations of the ASC. At this time, you may feel a shock from the brake pedal if youdepress it. These do not indicate a malfunc- tion. • When the ignition switch is set to the “ON” position. • When the vehicle is driven for a while after the engine is turned on.
 When the ASC is activated, you may feel a vibration in the vehicle body or hear a whin- ing sound from the engine compartment.This indicates that the system is operating normally. It does not indicate a malfunction.  When the anti-lock braking system warning light is illuminated, the ASC is not active.

CAUTION When driving a vehicle on a snowy or icy road, be sure to install snow tires and drive the vehicle at moderate speeds.
Skid control function
NOTE
 The skid control function operates at speeds of approximately 9 mph (15 km/h) or higher.

Adaptive Cruise Control System (ACC) (if so equipped)
Features and controls 5-87

N00576800064
Adaptive Cruise Control System (ACC) maintains a set speed with no need for you to use the accelerator pedal. Using a sensor (A), the system also measures the relative speedand distance between your vehicle and a vehi- cle in front, and maintains a set following dis- tance between your vehicle and the vehicle infront by automatically decelerating your vehi-cle if it becomes too close to the vehicle in front. The cruising set speed can be set from 20 to110 mph (30 to 180 km/h). The distance can be selected from four levels. If the vehicle in front decelerates, the ACCwill automatically apply limited braking to maintain the distance, and if the front vehicle then accelerates, the ACC will automaticallyaccelerate your vehicle up to the set speed. If your vehicle is approaching too close to the front vehicle, a buzzer will sound and a warn-ing is shown in the multi-information display. When the ACC detects no vehicle ahead, the set speed will be maintained.Conventional cruise control mode without the distance control can also be selected. Stop lights are illuminated during automaticbraking.

WA R N I N G Before using the ACC, read this entire sec- tion to understand the limitations of this system. Failure to follow instructions could result in an accident. Never rely solely on the ACC. The ACC is not a collision avoidance system or anautomatic driving system. It is designed to use only limited braking and is never a substitute for your safe and careful driv-ing. Always be ready to apply the brakes manually.

When the ACC no longer detects a vehicle in front, the buzzer will sound, the vehicle sym- bol in the display will disappear and your vehicle will slowly accelerate to the setspeed.
N00576900052
While the ACC is activat
ed, if your vehicle is
approaching too closely to the vehicle infront, the ACC gives a warning by sounding a buzzer and displaying a message. Apply the brakes to maintain the appropriate distance tothe vehicle in front.
WA R N I N G Never leave your vehicle while the ACC system is in the stationary vehicle hold state. When leaving the vehicle, apply the parking brake and move the selector leverto the “P” (PARK) position.NOTE
 When the ACC system is in the stationary vehicle hold state, the stop lights will illumi-nate.  While the ACC system is in the stationary vehicle hold state, the vehicle will not start moving again unless you press the “RES+” switch or depress the accelerator pedal.  When depressing the brake pedal while the automatic brake is applied, the brake pedalwill feel firm. This is normal. Depress the brake pedal harder to apply greater braking force.  During the automatic braking, operation sounds may be heard. This is normal.  If the turn-signal lever is operated while the ACC is active, the system may accelerate the vehicle to assist you in passing a vehicle in front.
 If the vehicle in front starts moving within 2 seconds after stopping, your vehicle will start moving.WA R N I N G Your vehicle may accelerate up to the set speed in the following situations. Apply the brake, if necessary, to slow down.• When your vehicle no longer follows thevehicle in front, e.g. at a freeway exit or when your vehicle or the vehicle in frontchanges its lane.NOTE
• When driving on a curve. When the vehicle in front has changed its course or lane, if a stationary vehicle appears in front your vehicle, the ACC will not decelerate your vehicle.

There are two ways to cancel the ACC con- trol.  By pressing the “CANCEL” switch.  By depressing the brake pedal.
When the ACC is canceled, the “SET” indi- cator goes off and the following distance indi-cator turns to the standby display. The front vehicle indicator also turns to the standby dis- play when a front vehicle is detected.
In any of the situations listed below, the ACC control is automatically canceled, a buzzer sounds and a message is shown in informa- tion screen of the multi-information display. If the ACC system is in the stationary vehicle hold state, it will also be automatically can- celed and the Electric parking brake will operate.  When the ASC is turned off.  While ABS, ASC or TCL is activated.  When the selector lever is in a position other than “D” (DRIVE).  When the parking brake is applied.  When the driver’s seat belt is unfastened.  When the driver’s door is opened.  When the ACC no longer detects any vehicle in front while it is in the stationaryvehicle hold state.  When the vehicle is in the stationary vehi- cle hold state for 10 minutes or more.
NOTE
 The set speed indication on the display turns to “---” when the accelerator pedal is depressed. This indication remains as long as the pedal is in a depressed position.  In certain conditions, the braking control and alarming functions of ACC may not work for a short while after releasing the acceleratorpedal.
To cancel ACC control

NOTE
 You can also cancel the ACC control by pressing the ACC ON/OFF switch. If this switch is pressed while
the ACC is ON, the
ACC will be turned off.  If you press the “CANCEL” switch or ACC ON/OFF switch to cancel the stationary vehicle hold state, the vehicle will startcreeping.

 When the system detects the vehicle mov- ing down a slope while the vehicle is in the stationary vehicle hold state.
If the ACC system judges that the stationary vehicle hold state can no longer be main-tained on a steep slope after your vehicle stops when the vehicle in front stops, the sta- tionary vehicle hold state is cancelled and awarning appears on the information screen of the multi-information display. Depress the brake pedal. If the detection performance of the ACC sys- tem has degraded, such as in the following situations, or if the ACC system judges that it can temporarily not operate, the ACC systemoperation will be cancelled automatically, and then a buzzer will sound and a message will appear to inform the driver. This can occur when
 The brake system is overheating due to continuous brake control on long down- hill slope.
This can occur when  In adverse weather conditions, such as rain, snow or sand storms, etc. Foreign objects, such as dirt, snow or ice, adhere to the surface of the sensor.  A front vehicle or an oncoming vehicle is splashing water, snow or dirt.  Driving on a nonbusy road with a few vehicles and obstacles in front.
If the display keeps showing the message, there is a possibility that the ACC has a mal- function. Contact your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. When the ACC system detects an abnormal- ity in the system, the ACC system will beturned off, a buzzer will sound and a message will be displayed in the multi-information display.If the message remains after the operation mode is put in OFF, and then turned back to
ON, contact your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
