The power steering system operates while theengine is running. It helps reduce the effort needed to turn the steering wheel. The power steering system has mechanicalsteering capability in case the power assist islost. 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 moreeffort to steer. If this happens, have your vehi- cle inspected at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of yourchoice.

N00518901387
If the set speed driving is deactivated by the condition described in “To deactivate” onpage 5-87, you can resume the previously set speed by push up the “RES +” switch (C) while driving at a speed of approximately 20mph (30 km/h) or higher. The “SET” indicator appears on the informa- tion screen of the multi-information display.
Under either of the following conditions, however, using the switch does not allow you to resume the previously set speed. In thesesituations, repeat the speed setting procedure: The CRUISE CONTROL ON/OFF switch is pressed. The ignition switch is turned to the “OFF” position or the operation mode is put in OFF. Indicator go off.
N00576800064
Adaptive Cruise Control System (ACC) maintains a set speed with no need for you to use the accelerator pedal. Using a sensor (A), the system also measures the relative speedand distance between your vehicle and a vehi- cle in front, and maintains a set following dis- tance between your vehicle and the vehicle infront by automatically decelerating your vehi-cle if it becomes too close to the vehicle in front. The cruising set speed can be set from 20 to110 mph (30 to 180 km/h). The distance can be selected from four levels. If the vehicle in front decelerates, the ACCwill automatically apply limited braking to maintain the distance, and if the front vehicle then accelerates, the ACC will automaticallyaccelerate your vehicle up to the set speed. If your vehicle is approaching too close to the front vehicle, a buzzer will sound and a warn-ing is shown in the multi-information display. When the ACC detects no vehicle ahead, the set speed will be maintained.Conventional cruise control mode without the distance control can also be selected. Stop lights are illuminated during automaticbraking.
CAUTION When the set speed driving is deactivated automatically in any situation other than those listed above, there may be a system malfunction. Press the CRUISE CONTROL ON/OFFswitch to turn off the cruise control and have your vehicle inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facilityof your choice.

Forward Collision Mitigation sy
stem (FCM) (if so equipped)
5-100 Features and controls
5
N00577300079
The Forward Collision Mitigation system (FCM) is designed to help reduce the risk of acollision with a vehicle or a pedestrian straight ahead of your vehicle. The FCM uses a sensor (A) to determine the distance andrelative speed to a vehicle and a pedestrian in front. The FCM is not designed as an auto- matic driving system or as a collision avoid-ance system. When your vehicle is approaching a vehicle or a pedestrian straight-ahead in your pathand the FCM judges that there is the risk of a collision, the system will give audible and visual warnings.When the FCM judges that a collision with the vehicle or the pedestrian straight-ahead is imminent, the system will automaticallyapply moderate braking to warn you to apply the brakes immediately.
When the FCM judges that a collision with the vehicle or the pedestrian straight-ahead is highly unavoidable, the system will apply emergency braking to reduce the severity ofthe collision and, if possible, to avoid the col- lision. Stop lights are illuminated during automaticbraking.
CAUTION Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for com- pliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Forward Collision Mitiga- tion system (FCM)
(if so
equipped)
WA R N I N G Before using the FCM, read this entire section to fully understand the limitations of this system. Failure to follow instruc- tions could result in an accident. The FCM is designed to help avoid certain frontal collisions or reduce the crash speed in such collisions. It is not a substi-tute for your safe and careful driving. Under certain circumstances, the system may not operate or may not detect cor-rectly a vehicle or a pedestrian in front. When your vehicle is approaching a vehi- cle or a pedestrian too closely, take all nec-essary actions to avoid a collision, such as braking and steering, regardless of whether the FCM is activated or not.Never rely on the FCM to prevent a colli- sion. Never attempt to test the operation of the FCM. Doing so could cause an accident, resulting in serious injury or death.
