E00313200013
The safety mechanism is activated if the elec-
tric tailgate should trap a person or an object
during automatic operation, or if the sensors (A) on either side of the electric tailgate are
hit. The warning buzzer sounds once for safe- ty and the electric tailgate automatically moves in the direction opposite to the one in which it was operating.
CAUTIONl The safety mechanism will sometimes not
operate depending on the condition of the
trapped object or how it is trapped. There- fore, be especially careful not to trap a hand,
part of your body or an object at this time.
Electric tailgate*
4-24OGGE16E1Locking and unlocking4

CAUTIONlThe safety mechanism is cancelled just be-
fore the electric tailgate is fully closed to al- low it to close completely. Therefore be es-
pecially careful not to trap a hand or finger
at this time.
l The safety mechanism is deactivated when
the electric tailgate is closed manually. Therefore be especially careful not to trap ahand or finger at this time.
l If the safety mechanism is repeatedly operat-
ed, the tailgate could be switched to manual operation. Be careful at this time, as the
electric tailgate could open or close sudden-
ly, depending on its position.
Once the electric tailgate is completely open or closed, normal automatic operation is
again possible.NOTEl If the environment or usage conditions sub-
ject the sensors to the same kind of force as
that of trapping a person or object, the safety mechanism could be activated.
l Do not damage the sensors when loading or
unloading luggage, or when cleaning therear window. Doing so could prevent the tailgate from closing automatically.Drop prevention mechanism
After the electric tailgate is opened automati-
cally, if it is detected that the tailgate is drop- ping due to factors such as accumulated
snow, the electric tailgate is closed automati- cally.
A warning buzzer sounds continuously while
the drop prevention mechanism operates.
NOTEl If snow has accumulated on the electric tail-
gate, remove it before operation.
l Do not install accessories other than
MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENUINE parts
on the electric tailgate. Some accessories could be too heavy, causing the drop preven-
tion mechanism to operate.
l The drop prevention mechanism could be
activated if manual operation is attempted immediately after the electric tailgate is
completely opened automatically.Sudden operation prevention
mechanism
If the engine is started while the electric tail-
gate is operating automatically, it may switch to manual operation due to insufficient bat-
tery voltage, making the electric tailgate stop intermittently while it moves. This is to stop
the electric tailgate from operating suddenly. When the tailgate is completely closed or
opened, automatic operation is again possible after approximately 10 seconds.
CAUTIONl The safety mechanism is deactivated while
the sudden operation prevention mechanism
is operating. Therefore be especially careful
not to trap a hand or finger at this time.Manual operation
E00313401067
If the electric tailgate power switch is off, the
electric tailgate can be operated by manual

Therefore be especially careful not to trap a hand or finger at this time.Tailgate easy closer
E00313300069
The tailgate easy closer is a mechanism for
assisting the closing of the electric tailgate.
If the electric tailgate is closed to a position
where it is detected as being ajar, it closes au- tomatically.

NOTElRepeated continuous operation of the handle
could activate the protection circuit and tem-
porarily prevent the tailgate easy closer from
operating.
If this occurs, wait about 1 minute before
operating the tailgate easy closer again.Inside tailgate release
E00303400298

Security alarm system*
4-28OGGE16E1Locking and unlocking4

The security alarm has fourmodes:
System preparation mode (ap- prox. 20 seconds)
(The buzzer sounds intermittently and the se-curity indicator (A) blinks.)
The system preparation time extends fromthe point at which all of the doors and the
tailgate are locked by pressing the LOCK
switch on the remote control switch or the
keyless operation function to the point at which the system armed mode goes into ef- fect.
During this time, it is possible to temporarily
open a door or the tailgate without using the
keyless entry system or the keyless operation function and without causing the alarm tosound (for example, when you forget some-
thing inside the vehicle or realize that a win- dow is open).
System armed mode
(The buzzer stops and the security indicator continues to blink with the indicator’s re-
duced lit-up duration time.)
Once the system preparation mode has ended,
the system armed mode starts.
If an unlawful opening of any of the doors,
tailgate or bonnet is detected during the sys- tem armed mode, the alarm will be activated
to warn people around the vehicle of an ab-
normal condition.
Also, if unlawful moving of the vehicle is at- tempted or a vehicle intrusion is detected, thealarm will be activated.
Alarm activation
The turn-signal lamps blink and the siren
sounds for approximately 30 seconds.
Refer to “Alarm activation” on page 4-33.
NOTEl The alarm will resume if unlawful actions
are taken again, even if the alarm has stop-
ped.
System cancellation
It is possible to cancel the system activation
during the system preparation mode or the system armed mode.
In addition, it is possible to cancel the alarm
once it has been activated.
Refer to “Cancelling the system” on page 4-32, “Cancelling the alarm” on page 4-33.
NOTEl When lending the vehicle to another person
or allowing the vehicle to be driven bysomeone who is unfamiliar with the securityalarm system, be sure to give the person a
proper explanation of the security alarm sys- tem.
If a person who is unfamiliar with the securi-
ty alarm system accidentally unlocked the vehicle, causing the alarm to sound, the
alarm would be a nuisance to people nearby.Changing the security alarm
