Cruise control is an automatic speed control system that keeps a set speed. It can be acti- vated at speeds from approximately 20 mph(30 km/h). Cruise control does not work at speeds below approximately 20 mph (30 km/h).
CAUTION The system may be malfunctioning. Park your vehicle in a safe place and stop theengine. Restart the engine and check whether the light/display goes out. If they go out, there is no abnormal condition. If they do notgo out or if they turn on frequently, it is not necessary to stop the vehicle immediately, but you should have your vehicle inspectedby an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of
your choice as soon as
possible.

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

If the set speed driving is deactivated by thecondition described in “To deactivate” onpage 5-90, you can resume the previously set speed by push up the “RES +” switch while driving at a speed of approximately 20 mph(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.
WA R N I N GAlthough the set speed driving will be deactivated when shifting to the “N”(NEUTRAL) 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.
CAUTION When the set speed driving is deactivated automatically in any situation other than those listed above, there may be a system malfunction.

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.

(if so equipped)
WA R N I N G Before using the ACC, read this entire sec- tion to understand the limitations of this system. Failure to follow instructions could result in an accident. Never rely solely on the ACC. The ACC is not a collision avoidance system or anautomatic driving system. It is designed to use only limited braking and is never a substitute for your safe and careful driv-ing. Always be ready to apply the brakes manually.

When the ACC no longer detects a vehicle in front, the buzzer will sound, the vehicle sym- bol in the display will disappear and your vehicle will slowly accelerate to the setspeed.
N00576900052
While the ACC is activated, if your vehicle isapproaching too closely to the vehicle infront, the ACC gives a warning by sounding a buzzer and displaying a message. Apply the brakes to maintain the appropriate distance tothe vehicle in front.
WA R N I N G Never leave your vehicle while the ACC system is in the stationary vehicle hold state. When leaving the vehicle, apply the parking brake and move the selector leverto the “P” (PARK) position.NOTE
 When the ACC system is in the stationary vehicle hold state, the stop lights will illumi-nate.  While the ACC system is in the stationary vehicle hold state, the vehicle will not start moving again unless you press the “RES+” switch or depress the accelerator pedal.  When depressing the brake pedal while the automatic brake is applied, the brake pedalwill feel firm. This is normal. Depress the brake pedal harder to apply greater braking force.  During the automatic braking, operation sounds may be heard. This is normal.  If the turn-signal lever is operated while the ACC is active, the system may accelerate the vehicle to assist you in passing a vehicle in front.
 If the vehicle in front starts moving within 2 seconds after stopping, your vehicle will start moving.WA R N I N G Your vehicle may accelerate up to the set speed in the following situations. Apply the brake, if necessary, to slow down.• When your vehicle no longer follows thevehicle in front, e.g. at a freeway exit or when your vehicle or the vehicle in frontchanges its lane.NOTE
• When driving on a curve. When the vehicle in front has changed its course or lane, if a stationary vehicle appears in front your vehicle, the ACC will not decelerate your vehicle.

There are two ways to increase the set speed. The set speed will increase by 1 mph (1.6 km/h) every time you push up the“RES +” switch while the ACC is activated. If you hold the switch pushed up, the set speed increases in 5 mph (8 km/h) incre-ments.
When the accelerator pedal is depressed while driving with the ACC control working,you can accelerate the vehicle beyond the presently set speed.
When the vehicle speed reaches your desired speed, push down and release the “SET -” switch and release the accelerator pedal; the new speed is then set in the system.
CAUTION To maintain proper performance of the ACC:• Always clean the surface of the radar sen- sor.• Avoid impacting the radar sensor or its sur-rounding area.• Do not put a sticker on the radar sensor orits surrounding area.• Do not paint the radar sensor.• Do not install a grill guard.• Do not modify the radar sensor or its sur- rounding area.• Always use tires of the same size, sametype, and same brand, and which have nosignificant wear differences.• Do not modify the vehicle’s suspension.
To increase the set speed

By using the “RES +” switch:

NOTE
 There is some time lag until the vehicle begins accelerating to the new set speed after the set speed has been changed.  The set speed can be changed even while your vehicle is following a vehicle in frontusing the ACC. In this case, however, although the set speed itself is increased, your vehicle will not accelerate.  While the ACC system is in the stationary vehicle hold state, the vehicle speed cannotbe set.
By using the accelerator pedal:

WA R N I N G The ACC braking control and approach alarm functions will not work while the accelerator pedal is depressed.NOTE
 The set speed indicator in the multi-informa- tion display will show “---” while the accel- erator pedal is depressed.  If the “SET -” button is not pushed down while depressing the accelerator pedal, yourvehicle speed will return to the set speed, after the accelerator pedal is released. When the accelerator pedal is released, the ACCbraking control and approach alarm func- tions may not immediately work.

 When the system detects the vehicle mov- ing down a slope while the vehicle is in the stationary vehicle hold state.
If the ACC system judges that the stationary vehicle hold state can no longer be main-tained on a steep slope after your vehicle stops when the vehicle in front stops, the sta- tionary vehicle hold state is cancelled and awarning appears on the information screen of the multi-information display. Depress the brake pedal. If the detection performance of the ACC sys- tem has degraded, such as in the following situations, or if the ACC system judges that it can temporarily not operate, the ACC systemoperation will be cancelled automatically, and then a buzzer will sound and a message will appear to inform the driver.
This can occur when  The brake system is overheating due to continuous brake control on long down- hill slope.
This can occur when  In adverse weather
conditions, such as
rain, snow or sand storms, etc. Foreign objects, such as dirt, snow or ice, adhere to the surface of the sensor.  A front vehicle or an oncoming vehicle is splashing water, snow or dirt.  Driving on a nonbusy road with a few vehicles and obstacles in front.
If the display keeps showing the message, there is a possibility
that the ACC has a mal-
function. Contact your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. When the ACC system detects an abnormal- ity in the system, the ACC system will beturned off, a buzzer will sound and a message will be displayed in the multi-information display.
If the message remains after the operation mode is put in OFF, and then turned back to ON, contact your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
