CAUTION
l
The system may be malfunctioning.
Park
your vehicle in a safe place and stop
the engine.
Restart the engine and check whether the
display/indicator goes out. If they go out,
there is no abnormal condition. If they do
not go out or appear frequently, it is not
necessary to stop the vehicle immediately,
but we recommend you to have your vehi-
cle inspected.
Towing E00624400050CAUTION
l
When
towing the vehicle with only the
front wheels or only the rear wheels
raised off the ground, do not place the ig-
nition switch in the “ON” position or do
not put the operation mode in ON. Plac-
ing the ignition switch in the “ON” posi-
tion or putting the operation mode in ON
could cause the ASC to operate, resulting
in an accident.
Note that the correct towing method de-
pends on the transmission type and the ve-
hicle’s drive configuration.
For details, refer to “Towing” on page
6-18. Cruise control*
E00609101008
Cruise

control is an automatic speed control system
that keeps a set speed. It can be activated at about
40 km/h (25 mph) or more. CAUTION
l
When
you do not wish to drive at a set
speed, turn off the cruise control for safety.
l Do not use cruise control when driving
conditions will not allow you to stay at
the same speed, such as in heavy traffic
or on roads that are winding, icy, snow-
covered, wet, slippery, on a steep down-
hill slope.
l On vehicles with M/T, do not move the
gearshift lever to the “N” (Neutral) posi-
tion while driving at a set speed without
depressing the clutch pedal. The engine
will run too fast and might be damaged.
NOTE l Cruise

control may not be able to keep your
speed on uphills or downhills.
l Your speed may decrease on a steep uphill.
You may use the accelerator pedal if you
want to stay at your set speed.
l Your speed may increase to more than the
set speed on a steep downhill. You must use
the brake to control your speed. As a result,
the set speed driving is deactivated. Cruise control switches
A- “ON OFF” switch
Used to turn on and off the cruise control.

B- “COAST SET” switch
Used

to reduce the set speed and to set the desired
speed.

C- “ACC RES” switch
Used to increase the set speed and to return to the
original set speed.

D- “CANCEL” switch
Used to deactivate the set speed driving.
NOTE
l When operating the cruise control switches,
press the cruise control switches correctly.
The set speed driving may be deactivated au-
tomatically if two or more switches of the
cruise control are pressed at the same time. Starting and driving

driving at the set speed, and your speed will then
gradually increase.
When you reach your desired speed, release the
switch. Your new cruising speed is now set. To increase your speed in small amounts, press the
“ACC

RES” switch for less than about 1 second
and release it.
Each time you press the “ACC RES” switch, your
vehicle will go about 1.6 km/h (1 mph) faster. Starting and driving

the

“COAST SET” switch for less than about 1 sec-
ond and release it.
Each time you press the “COAST SET” switch,
your vehicle will slow down by about 1.6 km/h
(1 mph). Brake pedal

OGWE12E1

To temporarily increase or decrease
the speed
E00609600178
To temporarily increase the speed
Depress
the accelerator pedal as you would normal-
ly. When you release the pedal, you will return to
your set speed. NOTE
l In

some driving conditions, the set speed driv-
ing may be deactivated. If this happens, refer
to “To activate” on page 4-45 and repeat the
speed setting procedure. To temporarily decrease the speed
Depress

the brake pedal to decrease the speed. To
return to the previously set speed, press the “ACC
RES” switch (C). Refer to “To resume the set
speed” on page 4-48. To deactivate
E00609701206
The set speed driving can be deactivated as follows:
l Press

the “ON OFF” switch (A) (Cruise con-
trol will be turned off)
l Press the “CANCEL” switch (D).
l Depress the brake pedal. The set speed driving is deactivated automatically
in any of the following ways.
l When

you depress the clutch pedal (on vehi-
cles with M/T).
l When your speed slows to about 15 km/h
(9 mph) or more below the set speed because
of a hill, etc.
l When your speed slows to about 40 km/h
(25 mph) or less.
l When the Active Stability Control (ASC)
starts operating. (if so equipped)
Refer to “Active stability control (ASC)” on
page 4-42. WARNING
l On
vehicles equipped with CVT, al-
though the set speed driving will be deac-
tivated when shifting to the “N” (NEU-
TRAL) position, never move the selector
lever to the “N” (NEUTRAL) position
while driving.
You would have no engine braking and
could cause a serious accident.
Also, the set speed driving may be deactivated as
follows: l When

the engine speed rises and approaches
the tachometer's red zone (the red-coloured
part of the tachometer dial). Starting and driving
4-47 4
OGWE12E1

CAUTION
l
When the set speed driving is deactivated
automatically in any situation other than
those listed above, there may be a system
malfunction.
Press the “ON-OFF” switch to turn off
the cruise control and have your vehicle
inspected by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.
To resume the set speed E00609800617
If the set speed driving is deactivated by the condi-
tion

described in “To deactivate” on page 4-47,
you can resume the previously set speed by press-
ing the “ACC RES” switch (C) while driving at a
speed of about 40 km/h (25 mph) or higher. Under either of the following conditions, however,
using

the switch does not allow you to resume the
previously set speed.
In these situations, repeat the speed setting proce-
dure:
l The “ON OFF” switch is pressed. l
[Except
vehicles equipped with keyless oper-
ation system]
Turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” or
“ACC” position.
Put the operation mode in OFF or ACC.
l “CRUISE” indication lamp is turned OFF. Reversing sensor system*
E00615500345
This
system operates when you are backing the ve-
hicle. It uses corner and back sensors to detect an
obstacle and the information screen in the multi-in-
formation display and the buzzer to inform you of
the approximate distance to the obstacle. CAUTION
l
The reversing sensor system assists you in
determining the approximate distance be-
tween

the vehicle and an obstacle located
behind the vehicle. It has limitations in
terms of detectable areas and objects,
and may not properly detect some ob-
jects. Therefore, do not place excessive
confidence in the reversing sensor system
and operate the vehicle as carefully as
you would do with a vehicle not equipped
with this system.
l Make sure to check the surroundings
with your own eyes to ensure safety. Do
not operate the vehicle by relying on the
reversing sensor system alone.
Obstacle detection areas E00615600346
The detection areas of the corner and back sensors
are

limited to those shown in the illustration. More-
over, the sensors are unable to detect low or thin ob-
jects or objects near the rear bumper. Thus, make
sure to check the surroundings as you operate the
vehicle in a safe manner. Starting and driving
