After driving on icy roads
E00618800219
After driving on snowy roads, remove any
snow and ice which may have become ad-
hered to the wheel areas.
When doing this, be careful not to damage the wheel speed sensors (A) and cables loca-ted at each wheel on vehicles equipped with an ABS.
Electric power steering
system (EPS) E00629201294
The power steering system operates while thePlug-in Hybrid EV System is operating.
It helps reduce the effort needed to turn the steering wheel.
The power steering system has mechanical
steering capability in case the power assist is lost. If the power assist is lost for some rea-
son, you will still be able to steer your vehi-
cle, but you will notice it takes much more
effort to steer. If this happens, have your ve- hicle inspected at a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.WARNINGl Do not stop the Plug-in Hybrid EV Sys-
tem while the vehicle is moving. Stopping the Plug-in Hybrid EV System would
make the steering wheel extremely hard to turn, possibly resulting in an accident.NOTEl During repeated full-lock turning of the
steering wheel (for example, while you are manoeuvring the vehicle into a parking space), a protection function may be activa-
ted to prevent overheating of the power steering system. This function will make the
steering wheel gradually harder to turn. In
this event, limit your turning of the steering wheel for a while. When the system has
cooled down, the steering action will return to normal.NOTEl If you turn the steering wheel while the vehi-
cle is stationary with the headlamps on, the headlamps may become dim. This behaviour
is not abnormal. The headlamps will return to their original brightness after a shortwhile.
Electric power steering system
warning display
If there is a malfunction in the system, the warning display will appear on the informa-
tion screen in the multi information display.
CAUTIONl If the warning display appears while the
Plug-in Hybrid EV System is operating,
have the vehicle inspected by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point as soon as possible.
It may become harder to turn the steering wheel.

l Press the Speed Limiter ON/OFF switch
l If CRUISE CONTROL ON/OFF switch
or ACC ON/OFF switch is pressed, the
Speed Limiter will be cancelled.
NOTEl If the Speed Limiter is cancelled by other
states, it may be a system malfunction.
Stop using the Speed Limiter and turn off
the Speed Limiter. Have your vehicle in-
spected by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Serv-
ice Point.CAUTIONl There is a possibility for the Speed Limiter
to allow abrupt acceleration corresponding
to accelerator pedal position when the Speed Limiter is deactivated. Be careful.To resume
E00634501048
The Speed Limiter memorizes the set speed
when system has been deactivated, the Speed
Limiter can resume by push up the RES +
switch (C).
However, the Speed Limiter immediately
starts controlling and the vehicle decreases as if an accelerator pedal is closed fully, whenthe vehicle speed is higher than the set speed.CAUTIONl There is a possibility to occur jerk, depend-
ing on a running resistance. Be careful.Adaptive Cruise Control
System (ACC)* E00634601166
The ACC maintains a set speed with no needfor you to use the accelerator pedal. Using a
sensor (A), the system also measures the rela- tive speed and distance between your vehicle
and a vehicle in front, and maintains a set fol- lowing distance between your vehicle and thevehicle in front by automatically decelerating
your vehicle if it becomes too close to the ve-
hicle in front.
The ACC is the driver assist system to make comfortable on a freeway. Stop lamps are il-luminated during automatic braking.

sensor is deformed by an accident, please do
not use the ACC and contact a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
When ACC detects no vehicle
in front within the set distance
Your vehicle runs at a speed to which you set. It is possible to set the speed between ap-
proximately 40 and 180 km/h.
NOTEl If the vehicle speed exceed the set speed on
down slope, the system automatically ap-plies the brake to maintain the vehicle speed.
l When depressing the brake pedal while auto-
matic brake is applied, the brake pedal is felt solidly, but it is not abnormal. You can moredepress the pedal and it provides greater
braking force.
l Sound is heard while automatic brake, but it

While the ACC is active, if your vehicle ap-
proaches too closely to a vehicle in front be-cause the ACC cannot allow for an adequate
deceleration in such cases as rapid decelera-
tion of the vehicle in front or apparition of a vehicle cutting in front of your vehicle, the
ACC gives a warning by sounding a buzzer and displaying a message.
If this happens, increase the following dis-
tance by depressing the brake pedal or mak- ing other decelerating control.
CAUTIONl When the ACC is not in use, turn off the
system to prevent it from operating by mis-take and an unexpected accident.
l Never operate the ACC from outside the ve-
hicle.CAUTIONl Neither control nor a warning are performed
in the following situation.

proaches, such as a pedestrian.
• When there is an abnormality in the sys-
tem (When the ACC detectes an abnor-mality, “ACC SERVICE REQUIRED” is
indicated.)
l The ACC makes neither acceleration nor de-
celeration control and only issues warning inthe following situation.
• The vehicle in front is parked or moving
at an extremely slow speed.
l The ACC may not be able to maintain the
set speed or the distance to a vehicle in front
and may not alert the driver, if the system
cannot detect the vehicle in front properly, in
the following situations.
