zThe electric tailgate is completely open.
z People, luggage, etc., are not touching
the sensors.
Operating the electric tailgate using the keyless operation key
or the driver’s side electric tail- gate switch
After unlocking the doors and the electrictailgate, the electric tailgate can be operated by pressing the switch (A) of the keyless op-
eration key or the driver’s side electric tail-
gate switch (B).
<Using the keyless operation key>
If the electric tailgate switch is pressed twice
in a row, the electric tailgate operates after the warning buzzer sounds and the hazardwarning flasher blinks.
The electric tailgate operates as follows:

Opening the electric tailgate us-
ing the open switch
The electric tailgate can be opened by press-
ing the open switch (C).
If the open switch is pressed with the tailgate
and all doors are unlocked, the electric tail- gate opens after the warning buzzer sounds.When the tailgate and all doors are locked,
the warning buzzer will not sound.
NOTEz When the keyless operation key is within the
operation range, the electric tailgate can be
opened by pressing the open switch even if the tailgate is locked.Closing the electric tailgate us-
ing the close switch
The electric tailgate can be closed by press-
ing the close switch (D) on the inside of the electric tailgate.
If the close switch on the inside of the elec-tric tailgate is pressed, the electric tailgate
closes after the warning buzzer sounds and the hazard warning flasher blinks.
If the close switch is pressed once while the
tailgate is closing, the warning buzzer sounds
and the electric tailgate opens.
NOTEz If the close switch is again pressed once
while the electric tailgate is operating in the
opening direction, the warning buzzer sounds once and the electric tailgate closes.Safety mechanism
E00313201036
The safety mechanism is activated if the elec-
tric tailgate should trap a person or an object during automatic operation, or if the sensors
(A) on either side of the electric tailgate are hit. The warning buzzer sounds once for safe-ty and the electric tailgate automatically
moves in the direction opposite to the one in which it was operating.
CAUT,ONz The safety mechanism will sometimes not
operate depending on the condition of the
trapped object or how it is trapped. There- fore, be especially careful not to trap a hand,
part of your body or an object at this time.

CAUT,ONzThe safety mechanism is cancelled just be-
fore the electric tailgate is fully closed to al- low it to close completely. Therefore be es-
pecially careful not to trap a hand or finger
at this time.
z The safety mechanism is deactivated when
the electric tailgate is closed manually. Therefore be especially careful not to trap ahand or finger at this time.
z If the safety mechanism is repeatedly operat-
ed, the tailgate could be switched to manual
operation. Be careful at this time, as the electric tailgate could open or close sudden-
ly, depending on its position.
Once the electric tailgate is completely open
or closed, normal automatic operation is
again possible.NOTEz If the environment or usage conditions sub-
ject the sensors to the same kind of force as
that of trapping a person or object, the safety mechanism could be activated.
z Do not damage the sensors when loading or
unloading luggage, or when cleaning therear window. Doing so could prevent the
tailgate from closing automatically.Drop prevention mechanism
After the electric tailgate is opened automati-
cally, if it is detected that the tailgate is drop-
ping due to factors such as accumulated snow, the electric tailgate is closed automati-
cally.
A warning buzzer sounds continuously while the drop prevention mechanism operates.
NOTEz If snow has accumulated on the electric tail-
gate, remove it before operation.
z Do not install accessories other than
MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENUINE parts
on the electric tailgate. Some accessories could be too heavy, causing the drop preven-
tion mechanism to operate.
z The drop prevention mechanism could be
activated if manual operation is attempted immediately after the electric tailgate is
completely opened automatically.Sudden operation prevention
mechanism
If the Plug-in Hybrid EV System is started
while the electric tailgate is operating auto-
matically, it may switch to manual operation due to insufficient auxiliary battery voltage,
making the electric tailgate stop intermittent- ly while it moves. This is to stop the electric
tailgate from operating suddenly. When the tailgate is completely closed or opened, auto-
matic operation is again possible after ap-
proximately 10 seconds.
CAUT,ONz The safety mechanism is deactivated while
the sudden operation prevention mechanism is operating. Therefore be especially careful
not to trap a hand or finger at this time.Manual operation
E00313401083
If the electric tailgate power switch is off, the
electric tailgate can be operated by manual operation.

E00313300069
The tailgate easy closer is a mechanism for
assisting the closing of the electric tailgate.
If the electric tailgate is closed to a position
where it is detected as being ajar, it closes au- tomatically.
:ARN,NGz Be careful not to catch your hands or fin-
gers when the electric tailgate closes auto- matically from the door ajar position. If
you think your hands or fingers could be caught during the operation of the tailgate
easy closer, pull the handle of the electric tailgate. The electric tailgate will return to
the door ajar position.CAUT,ONz Do not touch the latch (A) on the inside of
the electric tailgate. The tailgate easy closer
could operate and catch your fingers.NOTEz The tailgate easy closer operates even when
the electric tailgate power switch is OFF.

NOTEzRepeated continuous operation of the handle
could activate the protection circuit and tem-
porarily prevent the tailgate easy closer from
operating.
If this occurs, wait about 1 minute before
operating the tailgate easy closer again.Inside tailgate release
E00303401370
The inside tailgate release is designed to pro-vide a way to open the tailgate in the case of
a discharged auxiliary battery.
The tailgate release (see illustration) is moun- ted on the tailgate.

E00301502172
The security alarm system is for alerting thesurrounding area of suspicious behaviour to
prevent unlawful entry into the vehicle by op- erating an alarm if a door, the tailgate or the bonnet is opened when the vehicle has not
been unlocked using the keyless entry system or the keyless operation function.
Also, for vehicles equipped with the interior
alarm sensor, the alarm will be activated if
any of the following occurs:
z attempt to an unlawful moving of the ve-
hicle (the vehicle inclination detection
function)
z detection of a motion in the vehicle (the
interior intrusion detection function)
z disconnection of the battery terminal
The security alarm system is set to “active”.
When making changes to the settings, please follow the procedure listed in the section ti-
tled “Changing the security alarm settings” on page 4-30.

electrictailgate

On vehicles equipped with the Smartphone
Link Display Audio or the MITSUBISHI
Multi-Communication System (MMCS),
screen operations can be used to make the ad- justment. Refer to the separate owner’s man-
ual for details.CAUT,ONz Do not modify or add parts to the security
alarm system.
Doing so could cause the security alarm to malfunction.NOTEz The alarm system will not be activated if the
doors and the tailgate have been locked us-ing a key, the inside lock knob or the central
door lock switch (instead of the keyless en- try system or the keyless operation func-
tion).NOTEz For vehicles equipped with the interior alarm
sensor, if the turn-signal lamps do not blink after the locking and unlocking operation us-ing the keyless entry system or the keyless
operation function, the security alarm system
may be malfunctioning.
Have the vehicle inspected at a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
If the confirmation function (blinking of the turn-signal lamps by locking and unlocking
the doors and the tailgate) is deactivated, the
turn-signal lamps do not blink after the lock- ing and unlocking operation.
For information on the confirmation func- tion, refer to “Keyless entry system” on page
4-03 and “To operate using the keyless oper-
ation function” on page 4-09.
z For vehicles equipped with the interior alarm
sensor, the security alarm system could be
activated in the following situations.

The security alarm has fourmodes:
System preparation mode (ap- proximately 20 seconds)
(The buzzer sounds intermittently and the se-curity indicator (A) blinks.)
The system preparation time extends fromthe point at which all of the doors and the
tailgate are locked by pressing the LOCK
switch on the remote control switch or the
keyless operation function to the point at which the system armed mode goes into ef- fect.
During this time, it is possible to temporarily
open a door or the tailgate without using the
keyless entry system or the keyless operation function and without causing the alarm tosound (for example, when you forget some-
thing inside the vehicle or realize that a win- dow is open).
System armed mode
(The buzzer stops and the security indicator continues to blink with the indicator’s re-duced lit-up duration time.)
Once the system preparation mode has ended,
the system armed mode starts.
If an unlawful opening of any of the doors,
tailgate or bonnet is detected during the sys- tem armed mode, the alarm will be activated
to warn people around the vehicle of an ab-
normal condition.
Also, for vehicles equipped with the interior
alarm sensor, if unlawful moving of the vehi- cle is attempted or a vehicle intrusion is de-
tected, the alarm will be activated.
Alarm activation
Inside alarm (approximately 10 seconds):
The buzzer sounds, warning those inside the vehicle of an abnormal condition.
(except for vehicles equipped with the interi- or alarm sensor)
Outside alarm (approximately 30 seconds):
The turn-signal lamps blink and the horn (the
siren for vehicles equipped with the interior alarm sensor) sounds, warning people around
the vehicle of an abnormal condition.
Refer to “Alarm activation” on page 4-33.NOTEz The alarm will resume if unlawful actions
are taken again, even if the alarm has stop-
ped.
System cancellation
It is possible to cancel the system activation
during the system preparation mode or the
system armed mode.
In addition, it is possible to cancel the alarm once it has been activated.
Refer to “Cancelling the system” on page
4-32, “Cancelling the alarm” on page 4-34.
NOTEz When lending the vehicle to another person
or allowing the vehicle to be driven bysomeone who is unfamiliar with the securityalarm system, be sure to give the person a
proper explanation of the security alarm sys- tem.
If a person who is unfamiliar with the securi-
ty alarm system accidentally unlocked the vehicle, causing the alarm to sound, the
alarm would be a nuisance to people nearby.
