MITSUBISHI ASX 2019 Owner's Manual (in English)

NOTEzThe display/indicator may turn on when
you start the engine. This means that the bat- tery voltage momentarily dropped when the
engine was started. It does not indicate a malfunction, provided that the display goes out immediately.
z When a compact spare tyre has been put on
your vehicle, the gripping ability of the tyre
will be lower, making it more likely that the
display/indicator will blink.
ASC warning display
If an abnormal condition occurs in the sys-
tem, the following display/indicator will turn
on.
-ASC indicator -ASC OFF display/ASC OFF in-
dicatorWarning display type 1Warning display type 2NOTEz The combination of items shown on the dis-
play varies depending on the vehicle model.CAUT,ONz The system may be malfunctioning.
Park your vehicle in a safe place and stop
the engine.
Restart the engine and check whether the display/indicator goes out. If they go out,
there is no abnormal condition. If they do not go out or appear frequently, it is not nec- essary to stop the vehicle immediately, but
we recommend you to have your vehicle in- spected.TowingCAUT,ONz When towing the vehicle with only the front
wheels or only the rear wheels raised off the
ground, do not place the ignition switch in the “ON” position or do not put the opera- tion mode in ON. Placing the ignition switch
in the “ON” position or putting the operation mode in ON could cause the ASC to operate, resulting in an accident.
Note that the correct towing method depends
on the transmission type and the vehicle

CAUT,ONzOn vehicles with M/T, do not move the gear-
shift lever to the “N” (Neutral) position while driving at a set speed without depress-
ing the clutch pedal. The engine will run too fast and might be damaged.NOTEz Cruise control may not be able to keep your
speed on uphills or downhills.
z Your speed may decrease on a steep uphill.
You may use the accelerator pedal if you
want to stay at your set speed.
z Your speed may increase to more than the
set speed on a steep downhill. You must use the brake to control your speed. As a result,
the set speed driving is deactivated.
Cruise control switches
A- CRUISE CONTROL ON/OFF switch
Used to turn on and off the cruise control.

B- SET - switch
Used to reduce the set speed and to set the

The set speed driving can be deactivated as follows:
z Press the CRUISE CONTROL ON/OFF
switch (A) (Cruise control will be turned off.)
z Press the CANCEL switch (D).
z Depress the brake pedal.
The set speed driving is deactivated automat-
ically in any of the following ways.
z When you depress the clutch pedal (on
vehicles with M/T).
z When your speed slows to about
15 km/h (9 mph) or more below the set
speed because of a hill, etc.
z When your speed slows to about
40 km/h (25 mph) or less.
z When the Active Stability Control
(ASC) starts operating. (if so equipped)
Refer to “Active Stability Control (ASC)” on page 6-39.:ARN,NGz On vehicles equipped with CVT, although
the set speed driving will be deactivated
when shifting to the “N” (NEUTRAL) po-
sition, never move the selector lever to the “N” (NEUTRAL) position while driving.
You would have no engine braking and
could cause a serious accident.
Also, the set speed driving may be deactiva-
ted as follows:
z When the engine speed rises and ap-
proaches the tachometer

In these situations, repeat the speed settingprocedure:
z The CRUISE CONTROL ON/OFF
switch is pressed.
z [Except vehicles equipped with keyless
operation system@
Turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” or “ACC” position.
[Vehicles equipped with keyless opera-
tion system@
Put the operation mode in OFF or ACC.

OFF.Forward Collision
Mitigation system (FCM)*
The Forward Collision Mitigation System (FCM) uses a sensor (A) to determine the
distance and relative speed to a vehicle and a pedestrian in front. When your vehicle is ap-
proaching 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 visual warnings (forward
collision warning function), increases the
brake fluid pressure (FCM brake prefill func- tion), and also provides braking force assis-
tance when you depress the brake pedal (FCM brake assist function) 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.:ARN,NGz A driver is responsible for driving safely.
The FCM is the system to mitigate colli- sion- caused damages or to avoid colli- sions as much as possible.
The system is not intended to compensate for driver

Forward collision warningfunction
If the system judges that there is a risk of
your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a pe- destrian in front, this function warns you of
the potential hazard with visual and audible
alarms.
When this function is triggered, a buzzer
sounds and, at the same time, the
indica-
tor starts flashing.
The forward collision warning function oper- ates at the following vehicle speed:
z Against a vehicle: Approximately 15
km/h to 140 km/h.
z Against a pedestrian: Approximately 7
km/h to 65 km/h.
CAUT,ONz Under certain conditions, the audible alarm
may not work at all or may be scarcely audi- ble. Do not overly rely on the system; if your
vehicle is in danger of collision, take all nec- essary collision-evading actions, such as de-
pressing the brake pedal strongly regardless of whether the system is activated or not.FCM brake prefill function
If the system judges that there is a risk of
your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a pe-
destrian in front, this function prefills the
brake line with additional brake fluid to make
the brakes more responsive to your brake pedal operation.
The FCM brake prefill function operates at
the following vehicle speed:
z Against a vehicle: Approximately
5 km/h to 80 km/h.
z Against a pedestrian: Approximately
5 km/h to 65 km/h.
FCM brake assist function
If the system judges that there is a risk of your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a pe-
destrian in front, this function deploys the brake assist sooner than the brake assist oper-
ation.
The FCM brake assist function operates at the following vehicle speed:
z Against a vehicle: Approximately
15 km/h to 80 km/h.
z Against a pedestrian: Approximately
15 km/h to 65 km/h.CAUT,ONz The brake assist function may not be trig-
gered when the brake pedal is operated in certain ways.
Do not overly rely on the system; if your ve-
hicle is in danger of collision, take all neces-
sary collision-evading actions, such as de-
pressing the brake pedal strongly regardless of whether the system is activated or not.FCM braking function
If the system judges that there is a high risk
of your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a pedestrian in front, the system applies the
brakes moderately to encourage you to apply the brakes.
If the system judges that a collision is un-
avoidable, it initiates emergency braking con- trol to mitigate collision-caused damages or,
if the situation permits, to avoid a collision. When the emergency braking control is trig- gered, you are warned of the hazard by a vis- ual alarm.
Once the emergency braking has worked, you
are alerted to this by a message on the infor- mation screen of the multi-information dis- play.

The FCM braking function operates at the
following vehicle speed:
z Against a vehicle: Approximately
5 km/h to 80 km/h
z Against a pedestrian: Approximately
5 km/h to 65 km/h
CAUT,ONz Do not use the FCM as a normal braking.
z After your vehicle has stopped following the
activation of the FCM, automatic braking is
released. As the vehicle will then start creep-
ing, be sure to depress the brake pedal to hold the vehicle stationary.
z When applying the brake during the auto-
matic braking condition the pedal will feel
firm.
This is not abnormal.
You can apply more pressure to the pedal to
assist in braking.
z In the following situations, the system pro-
vides neither control nor alarming.
