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)

NOTE
Mirror image is displayed on the screen.

Monitor brightness is adjusted automatically by sensors.

It is possible to change the display language of the screen.
For details, please refer to the separated owner’s manual
for “Mitsubishi Multi-Communication System” or
“Change language or turn off the inside rearview mirror

page 3-126.

Under certain circumstances, it may become difficult to
see an image on the screen, even when the system is func-
tioning correctly.

N00568900024
It is possible to turn off the screen of the inside rearview mirror
and change the language of the warning messages on the
screen.
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.

Tachometer
N00519200289
The tachometer shows engine revolutions per minute. This
allows the driver to determine the most efficient selector posi-
tion and engine speed combinations.
This gauge also assists in evaluating engine performance.
Rheostat meter illumination button
N00554900182
Each time you press this button, there is a sound and the bright-
ness of the instruments changes.NOTE
You can adjust to 8 different levels respectively for when
the front side-marker and parking lights are illuminated
and when they are not.

If the vehicle is equipped with the automatic light control,
when the light switch is in a position other than the “OFF”
position, the meter illumination switches automatically to
the adjusted brightness, depending on the brightness out-
side the vehicle.

The brightness level of the instruments is stored when the
ignition switch is turned to the “LOCK” position or the
operation mode is put in OFF.

If you press and hold the button for longer than about 1
second when the front side-marker and parking lights are
illuminated, the brightness level changes to the maximum
level. Pressing and holding the button for longer than
about 1 second again returns the brightness level to the
previous level.
CAUTION
!
The red zone indicates an engine speed beyond the
range of safe operation.
Select the correct shift position (manual transaxle)
or selector position (CVT) to control the engine
speed so that the tachometer indicator does not
enter the red zone.
