2020 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER PHEV Owner's Manual (in English)

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.Parking sensors (Front/
Rear)*
When parking in a garage or during parallel parking, these sensors alert the driver to any
objects near the vehicle and their distance,
through a buzzer and the sensor display on the information screen in the multi-informa- tion display.
CAUT,ONz The parking sensors assist you in determin-
ing the approximate distance between the
vehicle and any objects. It has limitations in terms of detectable areas and objects, and
may not properly detect some objects. Therefore, do not place excessive confidence
in the parking sensors, and operate the vehi-
cle as carefully as you would do with vehicle not equipped with this system.
z Make sure to check the surroundings with
your own eyes to ensure safety. Do not oper-
ate the vehicle by relying on the parking sen-
sors alone.Obstacle detection areas
The detection areas of the corner and back
sensors are limited to those shown in the il- lustration. Moreover, the sensors are unableto detect low or thin objects or objects near
the front or rear bumper. Thus, make sure to check the surroundings as you operate the ve-
hicle in a safe manner.
Corner and back sensor loca-
tions
There are 8 sensors (A) in the front and rear bumper.
Detection areas
Depending on whether the vehicle is equip- ped with a towing bar, you can change the
parking sensors between the standard mode and 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.
Parking sensors (Front/Rear)*
7-1012**(20(1Starting and driving7

Vehicles without a towing bar
The detection areas are within approximately60 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.
NOTEz 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 7-100.
CAUT,ONz The parking sensors may not operate proper-
ly under the following conditions:

ence only, as errors may be caused by vari- ous factors, such as temperature, humidity,
or the shape of the obstacles.NOTEz When the sensors are detecting different ob-
stacles at the same time, the informationscreen in the multi information display indi-
cates the directions of the obstacles each sensors are detecting. However, closer obsta-
cles are given priority over other detected
obstacles and the warning buzzer sounds to
inform you of closer obstacles.Changing the detection areas
The detection areas can be changed as fol-
lows:
Vehicles with a towing bar
While the operation of the system is stopped
at the “SONAR” switch, press the “SONAR”
switch approximately 3 seconds or more, and
release it. The buzzer sounds twice to indi- cate that the detection area has been changed.
Vehicles without a towing bar
While the operation of the system is stopped
at the “SONAR” switch, press the “SONAR”
switch approximately 3 seconds or more, and release it. The buzzer sounds once to indicate
that the detection area has been changed.
NOTEz The mode of the detection area can be
switched only when the select position is in
the “R” (REVERSE) position.
z The detection area will not change if you
keep the “SONAR” switch pressed for 10 seconds or more.
z After pressing the “SONAR” switch, the
parking sensors operation differs according
to the detection area setting.

Warning display
In case there is a malfunction in the parkingsensors, 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*
The rear-view camera is a system that shows
the view behind the vehicle on a screen of the
DISPLAY AUDIO, the Smartphone-link Dis-play Audio (SDA) or the Smartphone-link
Display Audio (SDA) navigation system.
CAUT,ONz The 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.
z 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
(SDA) or the Smartphone-link Display Audio (SDA) navigation system. When you put the
select position to any other position, the
screen will return to its original indication.
CAUT,ONz 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.NOTEz Because the rear-view camera has a special
lens, the lines on the ground between park-
ing spaces may not look parallel on the screen.
z In the following situations, the screen indi-
cation may be difficult to see. There is no abnormality.

zRed line (B) indicates approximately
50 cm behind the rear bumper.
z Two Green lines (C) indicate approxi-
mately 20 cm outside of the vehicle
body.
z 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 (if so equipped)
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.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.Rear-view camera*
