tion with the ignition switch or the operation mode is in ON,
the rear-view image will be displayed on the screen of the
Mitsubishi Multi Entertainment System.
When the gearshift lever or the selector lever is shifted out of
the “R” position, the rear-view image will go off.

the liftgate handle.
WA R N I N G
!
Never rely solely on the rear-view camera to clear
the area behind your vehicle. Always check visually
behind and all around your vehicle for persons, ani-
mals, obstructions or other vehicles. Failure to do so
can result in vehicle damage, serious injury or
death.
The rear-view camera is an aid system for backing
up, but it is not a substitute for your visual confir-
mation.
The view on the screen is limited, and objects out-
side the view, such as under the bumper or around
either corner of the bumper end, cannot be seen on
the screen.
CAUTION
!
If the camera lens gets dirty, a clear image cannot be
obtained. As necessary, rinse the lens with clean
water and gently wipe with a clean, soft cloth.
To avoid damaging the camera;
• Do not rub the cover excessively or polish it by
using an abrasive compound.
• Do not disassemble the camera.
• Do not splash hot water directly on the lens.
• Do not spray the camera and its surroundings with
high-pressure water.
• Make sure that the liftgate is securely closed when
backing up.

Reference lines on the screenReference lines and upper surface of the rear bumper (A) are
displayed on the screen.

Red line (B) indicates approximately 20 inches (50 cm)
behind the rear bumper.

Two Green lines (C) indicate approximately 8 inches (20
cm) outside of the vehicle body.

Short transverse lines (1 to 3) indicate distance from the
rear bumper.1: Approximately at the rear edge of the rear bumper
2: Approximately 39 inches (100 cm)
3: Approximately 79 inches (200 cm)
CAUTION
!
The rear-view camera uses a wide-angle lens. As a
result, images and distances shown on the screen are
not exact.
Actual distance may be different from distance indi-
cated by the lines on the screen, depending on the
loading condition of the vehicle and road surface
condition.
The reference lines for distance and vehicle width
are based on a level, flat road surface. In the follow-
ing cases, objects shown on the screen will appear to
be farther off than they actually are.
• When the rear of the vehicle is weighed down with
the weight of passengers and luggage in the vehi-
cle. (Case 1)
• When there is an upward slope at the back. (Case
2)

CAUTION
!
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. They may not indi-
cate correct distance depending on the shape of an
obstacle.
For example, when there is an object behind the
vehicle that has upper sections projecting in the
direction of the vehicle, the reference lines on the
screen will indicate that point A is the farthest point
and point B is the closest point to the vehicle. In real-
ity, point A and B are actually the same distance
from the vehicle, and point C is farther off than
point A and B.

units used on the multi-information display.NOTE
When the ignition switch or the operation mode is in OFF,
the selector lever position display and fuel remaining dis-
play are not displayed.

points.To reset the trip odometerTo return the display to 0, hold down the multi-information dis-
play switch for about 1 second or more. Only the currently dis-
played value will be reset.
Example
If trip odometer is displayed, only trip odometer will
be reset.NOTE
Both trip odometers and can count up to 9999.9
miles/kilometers.
When a trip odometer goes past 9999.9 miles/kilometers,
it returns to 0.0 miles/kilometers.

When disconnecting the battery terminal, the memories of
trip odometer displays and are cleared, and their
displays return to “0.0 miles/kilometers”.

NOTE
You can adjust to 8 different levels for when the parking
lights or headlights are illuminated and 8 for when they
are not.
Each time you reduce two brightness levels, the segment
display of the brightness level decreases one by one.

If you press and hold the switch for longer than about 1
second, the brightness automatically scrolls through its
different levels, and stops scrolling when you release the
switch. Select your desired level of brightness.

The brightness level of the instruments is stored when the
ignition switch is turned to the “OFF” position or the
operation mode is put in OFF.
Driving range display
N00575200016
This displays the approximate driving range (how many more
miles or kilometers you can drive). When the driving range
falls below approximately 30 miles (50 km), “---” is displayed.NOTE
The driving range is determined based on the fuel con-
sumption data. This may vary depending on the driving
conditions and habits. Treat the distance displayed as just
a rough guideline.

When you refuel, the driving range display is updated.
However, if you only add a small amount of fuel, the cor-
rect value will not be displayed. Fill to a full tank when-
ever possible.

When your vehicle is stopped on an extremely steep hill,
the driving range value may, change. This is due to the
movement of fuel in the tank and does not indicate any
breakdown.

The display setting can be changed to the preferred units
(miles or km).
Refer to “Changing the function settings” on page 3-105.

Average fuel consumption display
N00575300017
This displays the average fuel consumption from the last reset
to the present.
The reset mode conditions for the average fuel consumption
display can be switched between “Auto reset” and “Manual
reset”.

not be measured.

The initial (default) setting is “Auto reset mode”.

Average fuel consumption may vary depend on the driv-
ing conditions (road conditions, how you drive, etc.).
The actual fuel consumption may differ from the fuel con-
sumption displayed, so treat the fuel consumption dis-
played as just a rough guideline.

Disconnecting the battery cable will erase from memory
the manual reset mode or auto reset mode setting for the
average fuel consumption display.

The display setting can be changed to the preferred units
{mpg, km/L, L/100 km}.
