Cruise control is an automatic speed control system that keeps a set speed. It can be acti- vated at speeds from about 25 mph(40 km/h). Cruise cont
rol does not work at
speeds below about 25 mph (40 km/h).
NOTE
 The indicator may come on when you start the engine. This means that the battery voltage momentarily dropped when theengine was started. It
does not indicate a
malfunction, provided th
at the display goes
out immediately.  When a spare tire has been put on your vehi- cle, the gripping ability of the tire will be lower, making it more
likely that the dis-
play/indicator will blink.
ASC warning display

CAUTION The system may be malfunctioning. Park your vehicle in a
safe place and stop the
engine. Restart the engi
ne and check whether
the display/indicator goes out. If they go out, there is no abnormal condition. If they do not go out or if they turn on frequently, it is notnecessary to stop the
vehicle immediately,
but you should have your
vehicle inspected
by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer ora repair facility of
your choice as soon as
possible.
To w i n g
CAUTION If the 2WD vehicle is
towed with the ignition
switch in the “ON” pos
ition or the operation
mode in ON and only the front wheels or only the rear wheels raised off the ground, the ASC may operate, resulting in an acci-dent. When towing the 2WD vehicle with the front wheels raised, ke
ep the ignition switch
in the “OFF”, “LOCK”
or “ACC” position or
the operation mode in ACC or OFF. Whentowing the vehicle with the rear wheels raised, keep the ignition switch in the “ACC” position or the operation mode in ACC.Refer to “Towing” on page 8-14.
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 roadsthat 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 decr
ease on a steep uphill.
You may use the accelerator pedal if youwant to stay at your set speed.  Your speed may increase to more than the set speed on a steep downhill. You have to usethe brake to control your speed. As a result, the set speed driving is deactivated.

N00581300025
The speed of your vehicle will be maintained at the speed you have set. The speed can be set between approximately 25 mph (40 km/h) and 110 mph (180 km/h).
N00581400026
The ACC will maintain the distance to thefront vehicle and will apply the brakes auto-matically when the system judges braking is necessary. The distance
can be selected from
three levels. When the front vehicle stops, the ACC will automatically apply the brakes to stop yourvehicle. A few seconds after your vehicle has stopped, the ACC will release the brakes and yourvehicle will start to move or creep slowly. You must apply the brakes to keep your vehi- cle stationary.
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 set speed.
• While ABS, ASC or TCL is activated. • When the selector leve
r is in positions other
than “D” (DRIVE) and “Ds” (DOWN- SHIFT & SPORTY DRIVING). • While the brake pedal is depressed. • While the parking brake is engaged.• When the ACC system has judged that the performance for detect
ing a front vehicle is
degraded. • When an abnormality
in the ACC system
has been detected.
When ACC detects no vehicle in front within the set distance

NOTE
 If the vehicle speed exceeds the set speed on a down slope, the system will automatically apply the brake to main
tain the vehicle set
speed.NOTE
When ACC detects a vehicle in front within the set distance

NOTE
 If the brake pedal is not depressed within 2 seconds after your vehi
cle has been stopped
by the ACC, a warni
ng buzzer will sound,
the above warning will be shown in the multi information display to alert the driver, and the ACC control will be canceled.  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

Forward Collision Mitigation System (FCM) (if so equipped)
Features and controls 5-107
5
N00577300024
The Forward Collision Mitigation System (FCM) is designed to help reduce the risk of a collision with a vehicl
e straight ahead of your
vehicle. The FCM uses a radar sensor (A) todetermine the distance to a vehicle in front and relative speed to th
at vehicle. The FCM is
not designed as an automatic driving systemor as a collision
avoidance system.
When your vehicle is approaching a vehicle straight ahead in your path and the FCM
judges that there is the ri
sk of a collision, the
system will give audibl
e and visual warnings.
When the FCM judges th
at a collision with
the vehicle straight-ahead is imminent, the system will automatically apply moderatebraking to warn you to apply the brakes immediately. When the FCM judges th
at a collision with
the vehicle straight-a
head is highly unavoid-
able, the system will apply emergency brak- ing to reduce the severity of the collision and, if possible, to avoid the collision.
N00577400025
If the system judges that there is a risk of your vehicle colliding wi
th a vehicle in front,
this function warns you of the potential haz- ard with visual and audible alarms.When this function is triggered, a buzzer sounds and, at the same time, a “BRAKE” message appears on the information screen ofthe multi-information display. The FCM will also prepare to provide quick brake response and greater brake force whenyou apply the brakes.
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 desi
gned 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 in fr
ont. When
your vehi-
cle is approaching a vehicle too closely, take all necessary actions to avoid a colli-sion, such as brakin
g and steering, regard-
less of whether the FCM is activated or not. Never rely on the FCM to prevent acollision.

N00577700028
When the FCM judges that a collision with the vehicle straight-ahead is imminent, the FCM will automatically apply moderate brak- ing to warn the driver to apply the brakesimmediately. If the FCM judges that the collision is highly unavoidable, it will automatically applyemergency braking to reduce the severity of the collision and, if possible, to avoid the col- lision.When the FCM applies
emergency braking, a
buzzer sounds and a warn
ing message is dis-
played in the information screen of the multi- information display.
NOTE
 If the FCM detects that the driver is making steering and/or accelera
tion inputs to try and
avoid a collision, the forward collision warn-ings may stop.
FCM braking function

WA R N I N G If the ASC is turned off, the FCM braking function will not operat
e. Refer to “Active
stability control” on page 5-90. If the brake pedal is not depressed within 2 seconds after your vehicle has been stopped by the FCM, a warning buzzer will sound and the brak
es activated by the
FCM will automatically be released. Apply the brakes as
necessary to keep
your vehicle stationary.NOTE
 When depressing the brake pedal while auto- matic braking is applie
d, the brake pedal will
feel firm. This is normal. Depress the brake pedal harder to apply
greater braking force.
 During the automatic
braking, operating
sounds may be heard.
This is normal.
WA R N I N GThe FCM will not activate and will not provide either warnin
g or braking in cer-
tain situations. Some of these include:• When the selector lever is in a positionother than the “D” (DRIVE) or “Ds”(DOWNSHIFT & SPORTY DRIVING).• When your vehicle speed is extremelylow, less than ap
proximately 2 mph
(2km/h).• When an object other than a vehicle,such as a pedestri
an, is in front.
• When the FCM has detected a problem in the system.• When a vehicle suddenly cuts in front ofyour vehicle.• When the vehicle in fr
ont is moving at a
speed much lower than your vehicle’s speed.
 Braking function will
not work in the fol-
lowing situations.• Your vehicle is driving at approximately19 mph (30 km/h) or faster while thevehicle in front is
stationary or moving
extremely slow.•ASC is OFF. The forward collision warning function and/or the FCM brakin
g function may not
activate in certain situations. Some of these include:• When a vehicle cuts
into your path at a
close distance.
