The Active stability
control (ASC) takes
overall control of the
anti-lock braking sys-
tem, traction control function and skid controlfunction to help maintain the vehicle’s control
and traction. Please read
this section in con-
junction with the page on the anti-lock brak-ing system, traction c
ontrol function and skid
control function.Anti-lock braking system

On slippery surfaces, the traction controlfunction prevents the drive wheels from spin-ning excessive, thus helping the vehicle tostart moving from a stopp
ed condition.
It also
provides sufficient driv
ing force and steering
performance as the vehicle turns while press-ing the acceleration pedal.
CAUTIONIf the warning display appears while theengine is running, have
the vehicle inspected
by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer ora repair facility of
your choice as soon as
possible. It may become harder to turn thesteering wheel.
Active stability control (ASC)
CAUTIONDo not over-rely on the ASC. Even the ASCcannot prevent the natural laws of physicsfrom acting on the vehicle. This system, likeany other system, has
limits and cannot help
you to maintain traction and control of thevehicle in all circumstances. Reckless driv-ing can lead to accident
s. It is the driver’s
responsibillty to drive carefully, This meanstaking into account the traffic, road and envi-ronmental conditions.Be sure to use the same specified type andsize of tire on all four
wheels. Otherwise, the
ASC may not work properly.Do not install any aftermarket limited slipdifferential (LSD) on your vehicle. The ASCmay stop functioning properly.
NOTE
An operation noise may be emitted from theengine compartment in the following situa-tions. The sound is associated with checkingthe operations of the ASC. At this time, youmay feel a shock from the brake pedal if youdepress it. These do not indicate a malfunc-tion.• When the ignition switc
h is set to the “ON”
• When the vehicle is driven for a while afterthe engine is turned on.
When the ASC is acti
vated, you may feel a
vibration in the vehicl
e body or hear a whin-
ing sound from the engine compartment.This indicates that th
e system is operating
normally. It does not i
ndicate a malfunction.
When the anti-lock braking system warninglight is illuminated, the ASC is not active.

The skid control function is designed to helpthe driver maintain control of the vehicle onslippery roads or during rapid steeringmaneuvers. It works by
controlling the engine
output and the brake on each wheel.
N00559401307
The ASC is automatically activated when theignition switch is turned to the “ON” posi-tion. You can deactivate
the system by press-
ing down the ASC OFF switch for 3 secondsor longer. When the ASC is deacti
vated, the indica-
tor will turn on. To reactivate the ASC,momentarily press the ASC OFF switch; the indicator is turned off.
N00559501249
CAUTIONWhen driving a vehicle on a snowy or icyroad, be sure to install snow tires and drivethe vehicle at moderate speeds.
Skid control function
NOTE
The skid control func
tion operates
at speeds
of about 9 mph (15 km/h) or higher.
ASC OFF switch
CAUTIONFor safety reasons, the ASC OFF switchshould be operated when your vehicle isstopped. Be sure to keep the ASC on while driving innormal circumstances.
NOTE
Using the ASC OFF swit
ch turns off both the
stability control function and the tractioncontrol function.When moving out of mud, sand or freshsnow, pressing the ac
celerator pedal may not
allow the engine speed to increase. In suchsituations, temporaril
y turning off ASC with
the ASC OFF switch will make it easier tomove out your vehicle.If you continue to press the ASC OFF switchafter the ASC is turned off, the “mistakenoperation protection func
tion” will activate
and the ASC will turn back on.

N00577400041
If the system judges that there is a risk ofyour vehicle colliding wi
th a vehicle or the
pedestrian in front, th
is function warns you of
the potential hazard with
visual and audible
alarms.When this function is triggered, a buzzersounds and, at the same time, a “BRAKE”message appears on the information screen ofthe multi-information display.The FCM will also prepare to provide quickbrake response and greater brake force whenyou apply the brakes.The forward collision
warning function oper-
ates when the following vehicle speed:Against a vehicle: Approximately 10 mph(15 km/h) to 87 mph (140 km/h).Against a pedestrian
: Approximately 5
mph (7 km/h) to 40 mph (65 km/h).
WA R N I N GBefore using the FCM, read this entiresection to fully understand the limitationsof 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 crashspeed in such collisions. It is not a substi-tute for your safe and careful driving.Under certain circumstances, the systemmay 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 pedestri
an too closely, take all nec-
essary actions to avoi
d 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 theFCM. Doing so could cause an accident,resulting in seriou
s injury or death.
