N00577700073
When the FCM judges that a collision with the vehicle or the pedest
rian straight-ahead is
imminent, the FCM will automatically applymoderate braking to warn the driver to apply the brakes immediately. If the FCM judges that
the collision is highly
unavoidable, it will automatically apply emergency braking to reduce the severity of the collision and, if possible, to avoid the col- lision. When the FCM applies emergency braking, abuzzer sounds and a wa
rning message is dis-
played in the information screen of the multi- information display. The FCM braking function operates when the following vehicle speed:  Against a vehicle:
Approximately 3 mph
(5 km/h) to 50 mph (80 km/h) Against a pedestrian: Approximately 3 mph (5 km/h) to 40 mph (65 km/h)
FCM braking function

WA R N I N G If the ASC is turned off, the FCM braking function will not operate. Refer to “Activestability control” on page 5-99. If the brake pedal is not depressed within 2 seconds after your vehicle has beenstopped by the FCM,
a warning buzzer
will sound and the brakes activated by the FCM will automatically be released.Apply the brakes as necessary to keep your vehicle stationary. The FCM will not activate and will not provide either warnin
g or braking in cer-
tain situations. Some of these include:• When the selector le
ver is in the “P”
(PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position.• When an object other
than a vehicle or a
pedestrian is in front.• When the FCM has detected a problemin the system.• When a vehicle or a pedestrian suddenlycuts in front of your vehicle.
 The FCM may or may not detect a motor- cycle, bicycle or wall depending on the sit-uation. The FCM is not designed to detect these objects. The forward collision warning function and/or the FCM brakin
g function may not
activate in certain situations. Some ofthese include:• When a vehicle sudden
ly appears just in
front of your vehicle.• When a vehicle cuts
into your path at a
close distance.
• When a vehicle ahead is not completelyin your path.• When your vehicle ch
anged lanes, and
your vehicle approac
hed immediately
behind the vehicle ahead.• When a vehicle ahead
is towing a trailer.
• When a vehicle ahea
d is a truck loaded
with freight that protrudes rearward from the cargo bed.• When the height of a vehicle ahead isextremely low or its road clearance isextremely high.• When a vehicle ahead is extremely dirty.• When a vehicle ahea
d is covered with
snow.• When a vehicle ahea
d has a large glass
surface.• When a vehicle ahead does not havereflectors (light refl
ector) or the position
of the reflector is low.• When a vehicle ahead is a car carrier ora similar shaped vehicle.• When accelerating and deceleratingquickly.• When driving on a s
lippery road covered
by rain water, snow, ice, etc.• When driving on a r
oad with alternating
up and down steep slopes.• When driving on a curve.• When driving on a bumpy or rough road.• When driving in dark areas, such as in a tunnel or at night.WA R N I N G

• When the system recognizes driver’s steering, accelerati
ng, braking or gear
shifting actions as evasive actions toavoid collision.• When the rear of your vehicle is weigheddown with the weight of passengers and luggage.• Up to several seconds after starting driv-ing.• In adverse weather
conditions, such as

dirt, water droplets,
snow and ice, etc.• When a vehicle ahea
d or an oncoming
vehicle is splashing wa
ter, snow or dirt.
• When using a windshield washer.• If windshield wipers are not Mitsubishi Motors Genuine parts or equivalent. • When the sensor becomes extremely hotor cold.• If the battery becomes weak or runsdown.• When the sensor is affected by stronglight, such as direct
sunlight or the head-
lights of an oncoming vehicle.
 The FCM may not detect a pedestrian in certain situations. Some of these include:• If the pedestrian is
shorter than approxi-
mately 3.2 feet (1 m) or taller thanapproximately 6.5 feet (2 m).WA R N I N G
• If the pedestrian is
wearing loose-fitting
clothes.• If part of a pedestrian’s body is hidden, such as when holding an umbrella, large bag, etc.• If a pedestrian bends forward, sits or lieson the road.• When a pedestrian is pushing/pullingsomething, such as a stroller, bicycle orwheelchair.• When pedestrians gather in a group.• When a pedestrian
clothing appears to
be nearly the same color or brightness asits surroundings.• When a pedestrian is very close to anobject, such as a vehicle.• When a pedestrian is in a dark area, suchas at night or in a tunnel.• When a pedestrian is walking fast orrunning.• When a pedestrian suddenly rushes infront of the vehicle.• When the position of
a pedestrian is close
to the edge of the vehicle.
 When the system recognizes driver’s steering or accelerati
ng actions as evasive
actions to avoid a collision, FCM control and alarm functions
may be canceled.
In certain situations,
though there is little
or no risk of a collision, the FCM mayactivate. Examples include: • When overtaking a vehicle.WA R N I N G
• When driving on a curve.• When there is a road side object (B) thatreflects the radar sensor signal, such as a road sign.• When approaching
a gate, a railroad
crossing, an underpas
s, a narrow bridge,
manhole lid or
a speed bump.
• When driving unde
r an overpass or
pedestrian bridge.• When driving in a narrow tunnel.• When driving in a parking structure.• When approaching a slope where the incline changes
significantly.
• When trying to st
op your vehicle very
close to a vehicle or
an object in front.
• When passing a vehicle, a pedestrian or an object closely.WA R N I N G

Blind Spot Warning (BSW) (with Lane Change Assist) (if so equipped) 5-126 Features and controls
5
N00592200040
The Blind Spot Warning (BSW) is a driving aid system that alerts the driver when anothervehicle which may not be visible through the outside rearview mirror is traveling in the next lane behind your vehicle. When a vehicle in the next lane is traveling at same speed or faster in the detection areas,the Blind Spot Warning light in the corre- sponding outside rearview
mirror will illumi-
nate. If the turn signal lever is operated to theside where the Blind Spot Warning light is illuminated, the Blind
Spot Warning light will
blink and the system will beep three times toalert the driver. Depending on the relative speed between your vehicle and a vehicle in the next lane,the Blind Spot Warning system will detect up to approximately 230 feet (70 m) from your vehicle. (Lane Change Assist)
N00592300070
The BSW uses two sensors (A) located inside the rear bumper. The detection areas are shown as illustrated.
