How to read the screen
In any mode other than the Bird’s eye-view
mode, the lines in the screen give the follow- ing information. Use them only as a guide.
CAUT,ONz When you accidentally hit the camera and its
circumference against something, the view
and the lines in the screen may not be dis- played correctly. Be sure to have it inspected
by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point.
Front-view mode
Reference lines for the distance and the vehi-
cle width and upper surface of the front
bumper (A) are displayed on the screen.
z The Red line (B) indicates approximate-
ly 50 cm from the front edge of the front
bumper.
z The Two Green lines (C) indicate the ap-
proximate vehicle width.
z The Orange line (D) indicates an expec-
ted course when the vehicle moves for-
ward with the steering wheel turned. It
disappears when the steering wheel is in the neutral position.
z The approximate distance from the vehi-
cle body is as follows:
z
1- Approximately 100 cm from the
front edge of the front bumper
NOTEz When the expected course lines are dis-
played in the front view, the expected course lines are also displayed in the bird’s-eyeview (Front: solid line, Rear: broken line).Rear-view mode
Reference lines for the distance and the vehi-
cle width and upper surface of the rear bump- er (A) are displayed on the screen.
z The Red line (B) indicates approximate-
ly 50 cm behind the rear edge of the rear
bumper.
z The Two Green lines (C) indicate the ap-
proximately vehicle width.
z The Orange line (D) indicates an expec-
ted course when the vehicle is reserved with the steering wheel turned. It disap-
pears when the steering wheel is in the
neutral position.
z The approximate distance from the vehi-
cle body is as follows:
1- Approximately 100 cm from the rear
edge of the rear bumper
2- Approximately 200 cm from the rear
edge of the rear bumper

CAUT,ONzDue to the number of people in the vehicle,
the fuel quantity, the weight and positioning
of luggage, and/or the condition of the road surface, the lines in the view from the rear- view camera may not be accurately posi-
tioned relative to the actual road.
Use the reference lines only as a guideline, and always do a safety check of your behind
and surroundings directly while driving.NOTEz When the expected course lines are dis-
played in the rear view, the expected course lines are also displayed in the bird’s-eyeview (Front: broken line, Rear: solid line).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 there is an upward slope behind 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.

A- Actual objects B- Objects shown on the screen
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.
Side-view mode
Reference lines for the vehicle width and the
front end of the vehicle are displayed on the
screen.

Loading a roof carrierCAUT,ONzUse a roof carrier that properly fits your ve-
hicle. Do not load luggage directly onto the
roof.
For installation, refer to the instruction man-
ual accompanying the roof carrier.NOTEz We recommend you to use a
MITSUBISHI
MOTORS GENUINE roof carrier, since the
brackets to be used have a special shape. For
details, we recommend you to consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
Roof carrier precaution
CAUT,ONz Make sure that the weight of the luggage
does not exceed the allowable roof load.
If the allowable roof load is exceeded, this may cause damage to the vehicle.
The roof load is the total allowable load on
the roof (the weight of the roof carrier plus
the weight of luggage placed on the roof car- rier).
For the specific value, refer to “Maximum
roof load” on page 11-08CAUT,ONz When luggage is loaded onto the vehicle,
please make sure to drive slowly and avoid
excessive manoeuvres such as sudden brak- ing or quick turning.
In addition, place the luggage on the carrier
so that its weight is distributed evenly with the heaviest items on the bottom. Do not load items that are wider than the roof carri-
er.
The additional weight on the roof could raise
the vehicle’s centre of gravity and affect ve- hicle handling characteristics.
As a result, driving errors or emergency ma-
noeuvres could lead to a loss of control and result in an accident.
z Before driving and after travelling a short
distance, always check the load to make sure it is securely fastened to the roof carrier.
Check periodically during your travel that
the load remains secure.NOTEz To prevent wind noise or reduction in fuel
economy, remove the roof carrier when not
in use.
z Remove the roof carrier before using an au-
tomatic car wash.Trailer towing
In order to tow a trailer with your vehicle,
when having a trailer towing device mounted that meets all relevant regulations in your
area, consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point.
Check that your towing bar coupling ball
does not obscure your vehicle’s licence plate when the trailer or caravan is disconnected. If
it obscures the licence plate, please remove
the towing bar coupling ball. And if the tow-
ing bar coupling ball is lockable by using a
key or any kind of tools, please remove the
coupling ball and use a towing bar coupling ball which can be removed or repositioned
without the use of a key or any kind of tools instead.
The regulations concerning the towing of a
trailer may differ from country to country. You are advised to obey the regulations in
each area.CAUT,ONz Danger of Accident!
A towing bar should be fitted according to MITSUBISHI MOTORS guidelines.
Trailer towing

NOTEzIf you are going to tow a trailer, pay careful
attention to the following points.
Maximum towable weight with
brake and maximum trailer- nose weight
Never exceed the maximum towable weight
with brake and the maximum trailer-nose weight as listed in the specifications. (Referto “Vehicle weight” on page 11-08.)
If you tow a trailer at an altitude of more than
1,000 m above sea-level, reduce your weight
by 10 % of the gross combination weight for
every increase of 1,000 m above sea-level, as the engine output is lowered owing to de-
crease in atmospheric pressure.

Operating hints
zHave your vehicle serviced prior to tow-
ing a heavy trailer, taking particular care of the state of engine tune, the condition of brakes, steering and tyres.
Adjust tyre pressures to those specifica-
tions at trailer towing.
(Refer to “tyre inflation pressures” on page 10-13.)
Check the tyres, wiring and brakes (if
fitted) on the trailer.
z Leave plenty of room between the front
of your vehicle and the preceding vehi-cle.
If the trailer begins to sway or becomes
difficult to handle, gently slow down or
apply the independent trailer brakes (if fitted) NOT the vehicle brakes. Stop the
vehicle and trailer in a safe location.
One cause of swaying is poor trailer bal- ance and until this has been overcome
the swaying will recur. Relocated the load in your trailer and re-assess the
problem.
z Be sure that the driving speed does not
exceed 100 km/h (62 mph) for trailer op-
eration.
It is also recommended that you obey the
local regulations in case the driving
speed with a trailer is limited to less than 100 km/h (62 mph).
z To prevent the clutch from slipping (ve-
hicle with a M/T only), do not rev the
engine more than is required when start-
ing off.
z To prevent shocks from the overrun
brake, depress the brake pedal lightly at
first and then more strongly.
z To make full use of engine braking,
change to a lower gear before descend-
ing a slope.
z The body, brakes, clutch, and chassis
will be under additional strain when
towing a trailer.
z The heavier weight and higher rolling
and air resistance will increase fuel con-
sumption.
Additional precautions for vehi-
cles with A/T
It is recommended to use a lower gear in
sports mode on slopes or at low speed, taking care to keep the engine speed below the red
zone.
