The brake assist system is a device assisting drivers who cannot depress the brake pedal firmly such as in emergency stop situations and provides greater braking force. If the brake pedal is depressed suddenly, the brakes will be applied with more force thanusual.
NOTE
 The hill start assist is activated when all of the following conditions are met. • The engine is running. (The hill start assist will not be activated while the engine is starting or immediately after the engine is started.) • The selector lever is in any position other than “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL). • The vehicle is completely stationary, with the brake pedal depressed. • The parking brake is released.  The hill start assist will not operate if the accelerator pedal is depressed before the brake pedal is released.  The hill start assist also operates when reversing on an uphill slope.
Warning light/display
CAUTION If the warning is displayed, the hill start assist will not operate. Start off carefully. Park your vehicle in a safe place and stop the engine.Restart the engine and check whether the light/display goes out, in which case the hill start assist is again working normally. If they remain displayed or reappear fre- quently, it is not necessary to stop the vehicle immediately, but the vehicle should beinspected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice as soon as possible.
Brake assist system
CAUTION The brake assist system is not a device designed to exercise braking force greater than its capacity. Make sure to always keep a sufficient distance between your vehicle and a vehicle in front of you without relying toomuch on the brake assist system.NOTE
 Once the brake assist system is operational, it maintains great braking force even if thebrake pedal is lightly released. To stop its operation, completely remove your foot from the brake pedal.  The brake assist system may become opera- tional when the brake pedal is fullydepressed even if it has not been depressed suddenly.  When the brake assist system is in use while driving, you may feel as if the depressed brake pedal is soft, the pedal moves in smallmotions in conjunction with the operation noise, or the vehicle body and the steering wheel vibrate. This occurs when the brakeassist system is operating normally and does not indicate faulty operation. Continue to depress the brake pedal.  You may hear an operation noise when the brake pedal is suddenly or fully depressed while stationary. This does not indicate a malfunction and the brake assist system isoperating normally.

This helps maintain vehicle drivability and steering wheel handling.  When using the anti-lock brakes (sudden braking), steering is slightly differentfrom normal driving conditions. Use the steering wheel carefully.  Always keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you. Even if your vehi-cle is equipped with the anti-lock braking system, leave a greater braking distance when:• Driving on gravel or snow-covered roads. • Driving on uneven road surfaces. Operation of anti-lock braking system is not restricted situations where brakes are applied suddenly. This system may alsoprevent the wheels from locking when you drive over manholes, steel roadwork plates, road markings, or any uneven roadsurface.  When the anti-lock braking system is in use, you may feel the brake pedal vibrat-ing and hear a unique sound. It may also feel as if the pedal resists being pressed. In this situation, simply hold the brakepedal down firmly. Do not pump the brake, which will result in reduced braking performance.

Driving hints
CAUTION The anti-lock braking system cannot prevent accidents. It is your responsibility to take safety precautions and to drive carefully. To prevent failure of the anti-lock braking system, be sure all four wheels and tires are the same size and the same type.NOTE
 A whining sound is emitted from the engine compartment when driving immediately after starting the engine. These are the nor- mal sounds the anti-lock braking systemmakes when performing a self-check. It does not indicate a malfunction.  The anti-lock braking system can be used after the vehicle has reached a speed over approximately 6 mph (10 km/h). It stopsworking when the vehicle slows below 3 mph (5 km/h).

WA R N I N G Do not stop the engine while the vehicle is moving. Stopping the engine would make the steering wheel extremely hard to turn,possibly resulting in an accident.
NOTE
 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 acti- vated to prevent overheating of the powersteering 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 effort will return to normal.  If you turn the steering wheel while the vehi- cle is stationary with the headlights on, theheadlights may become dim. This behavior is not abnormal. The headlights will return to their original brightness after a short while.

CAUTION When towing the vehicle with only the front wheels or only the rear wheels raised off the ground, do not place the ignition switch in the “ON” position or do not put the operationmode in ON. Placing the ignition switch in the “ON” position or putting the operation mode in ON could cause the ASC to operate,resulting in an accident. Note that the correct towing method depends on the transmission type and the vehicle’sdrive configuration. For details, refer to “Towing” on page 8-11.
Cruise control
CAUTION When you do not wish to drive at a set speed, turn off the cruise control for safety.
 Do not use cruise control when driving con- ditions 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 downhill slope.NOTE
 Cruise control may not be able to keep your speed on uphills or downhills.  Your speed may decrease on a steep uphill. You may use the accelerator pedal if you want to stay at your set speed.  Your speed may increase to more than the set speed on a steep downhill. You have to use the brake to control your speed. As a result,the set speed driving is deactivated.CAUTION
