celeration Mitigation System(RMS) (Forward)* ON/OFFswitch
This switch is used to turn on and off the
FCM and RMS (Forward) and, also to select your desired collision alarm timing.
When the switch is held pressed, the
ON/OFF state of the FCM and RMS (For- ward) changes from ON to OFF and vice ver- sa. If you give the switch a short press with
the FCM in the ON state, you can change the collision alarm timing.
NOTEz When the FCM and RMS (Forward)*
ON/OFF switch is held pressed to change
the ON/OFF state of the FCM, the ON/OFF
state of the RMS (Forward) is also changed
at the same time.
To turn on/off the system
You can switch the system from OFF to ON
or ON to OFF if you hold the FCM and RMS (Forward)* ON/OFF switch pressed when the
ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position
or the operation mode is put in ON.
Once the system is turned on, the information screen of the multi-information display
shows the collision alarm timing currently se- lected, and the
indicator on the instrument
cluster goes out.
When you turn off the system, the following message appears on the information screen of
the multi-information display and the
indi-
cator will come on in the instrument cluster.
Cycling the ignition switch to the “ON” posi-
tion or putting the operation mode in ON will
set the FCM back ON.
NOTEz The indicator is combined with the Radar
sensing misacceleration Mitigation System
(RMS) (Forward) OFF indicator.
To change alarm timing
Give a short press to the FCM and RMS
(Forward)* ON/OFF switch to change the
timing at which the frontal collision alarm is
triggered. Every time you press the switch, the alarm timing changes from three levels
(far, middle or near).
As you make selection, the selected alarm
timing is displayed on the information screen
of the multi-information display. Even after turning off the FCM, turning the ignition
switch to the “LOCK” position or putting the operation mode in OFF, the system retains
your last selected alarm timing in memory.

assist and the FCM braking functions, the function triggering timing cannot be changed.System problem warning
If there is a malfunction in the system, a
warning will appear on the information
screen of the multi-information display de- pending on the situation.
Windscreen is dirty
When the FCM system determines that its
performance has been degraded, the FCM will become inoperative.
This can occur when:
z Foreign objects, such as dirt, snow or
ice, adhere to the windscreen of the sen-
sor portion.
z There are adverse weather conditions,
such as rain, snow, sand storms, etc.
z A vehicle in front or an oncoming vehi-
cle is splashing water, snow or dirt.
The following message will appear on the in-
formation screen of the multi-information
display and the
indicator will come on in
the instrument cluster.
When the sensor performance returns, the FCM functions will resume operation.
If the display keeps showing the message,
there is a possibility that the sensor has a
malfunction. Contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point for in-
spection of the sensor.NOTEz The “CAMERA BLOCKED” message may
temporarily appear on the information
screen when the sensor cannot detect a vehi- cle, a pedestrian or an object within range.
This is not a malfunction. When a vehicle or an object comes within range, the FCM
function will resume and the message will go off.
z The “CAMERA BLOCKED” message may
appear on the information screen when driv-
ing on a nonbusy road with a few vehicles
and obstacles in front.
When the system cannot oper-
ate temporarily
If the system becomes temporarily unavaila-
ble for some reason, the following messagewill appear on the information screen of the
multi-information display, the
indicator
will come on in the instrument cluster and the
FCM will automatically be turned off.

If the display keeps showing the message,
there is a possibility that the FCM has a mal-
function. Contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point for inspection of the system.
Sensor is too hot or cold
If the system becomes temporarily unavaila- ble due to the high or low temperature of the
sensor, the following message will appear on the information screen of the multi-informa- tion display, the
indicator will come on in
the instrument cluster and the FCM will auto-
matically be turned off.
After the temperature of the sensor has been
in range, the system will automatically return
to operation.
If the display keeps showing the message,
there is a possibility that the FCM has a mal-
function. Contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point for inspection of
the system.
FCM deactivation due to fault
If the FCM detects a malfunction in the sys-
tem, either one of the following messages will appear on the information screen of themulti-information display, the
indicator
will come on in the instrument cluster and the
FCM will automatically be turned off.
If the message remains even after the ignition
switch is turned to the “LOCK” position and then turned back to the “ON” position or the
operation mode is put in OFF, and then turned back to “ON”, please contact a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point.
NOTEz If the sensor or its surrounding area reaches
an extremely high temperature when parking the vehicle under a blazing sun, the “FCMSERVICE REQUIRED” message may ap-
pear.
After the temperature of the sensor or its sur-
rounding area has been in range, if the mes-
sage remains even after restarting the en- gine, please contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.Handling of the sensor

Radar sensing misacceleration Mitigation System (RMS) (Forward)*
The Radar sensing misacceleration Mitigation System (RMS) (Forward) operates to prevent sudden starts and mitigate collision-caused damages by suppressing the engine output for up to approximately 5 seconds when the system judges that the system is detected the vehicle or obstacleswithin approximately 4 m in front your vehicle and judges that accelerator pedal was depressed promptly and too strongly such as misoperation
of it. This system operates when the vehicle is at stop or moving forward at speed less than approximately 10 km/h (6 mph). When the RMS (Forward) operates, the
indicator blinks in the instrument cluster, and the buzzer sounds intermittently.

Following parts are used in combination with Forward Collision Mitigation system (FCM) and RMS (Forward).

:ARN,NGzDo not overly rely on the RMS (Forward). It is never a substitute for your safe and careful driving. Always be careful to operate the accelerator
pedal perceiving the environmental conditions. Misoperation can lead to a serious accident.
z The RMS (Forward) does not have a brake function. Even if the system operates, the vehicle will start to creep if you do not depress the brake
pedal.
Depress the brake pedal according to the environmental condition.
z Depending on the situation, the system does not operate even if the vehicle or the obstacle id in front of your vehicle and this may cause the vehicle
to start suddenly and lead to a serious accident.
z If the vehicle is trapped in the railway crossing because the system is activated as the crossing barrier is misrecognised as an obstacle, escape from
the railway crossing without any panic by one of the following methods.

CAUT,ONzThe RMS (Forward) operates to the obstacles such as a vehicle ahead or a wall. It sometimes happens that a motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian are detected as
obstacles, but these are not the object of the RMS (Forward).
z The RMS (Forward) may not operate in the following conditions.

CAUT,ONzThe RMS (Forward) may not operate because the sensor cannot detect the front vehicle or obstacle as follows.
