lAutomatic high-beam systemCAUTIONl To maintain proper performance of the
FCM, LDW and Automatic high-beam sys-tem:
• Always keep clean the windscreen.
If the inside of the windscreen where the
sensor is installed becomes dirty or fog- ged, contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.
• Do not apply an impact or load on the
sensor or its surrounding area.CAUTION• Do not put anything including a sticker or
film on the windscreen in front of or sur- rounding the area of the sensor.
• Do not attempt to detach or disassemble
the sensor.
• If the windscreen is misted, remove the
mist from the windscreen by using the de-
mister switch.
• Maintain the wiper blades in good condi-
tion.
Refer to “Wiper blades” on page 10-06.
When replacing the wiper blades, use on-
ly MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENUINE
parts or equivalent.
• Do not dirty or damage the sensor.
• Do not spray glass cleaner on the sensor.
Also, do not spill liquid, such as a bever-
age, on the sensor.
• Do not install an electronic device, such
as an antenna, or a device that emits
strong electric waves near the sensor.
• Always use tyres of the same size, same
type and same brand and that have no sig-
nificant wear differences.
CAUTION• Do not modify the vehicle’s suspensions.
l If the windscreen on the sensor or in the sur-
rounding area of the sensor is cracked or scratched, the sensor may not detect an ob-ject properly. This could cause a serious ac-cident. Turn off the FCM and have your ve-
hicle inspected as soon as possible at a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
If you need to replace the windscreen, con-
tact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point.
l The sensor emits infrared rays when the op-
eration mode is in ON. Do not look into the
sensor by using optical goods such as a mag-
nifying glass. The infrared ray might injure your eyes.

Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation System*E00643400163
The Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation System operates to prevent sudden starts and mitigate collision-caused damages by suppressing the motor output for up to approximately 5 seconds when the system judges that the system has detected a vehicle or obstacles within approximately4 m in front and behind your vehicle and judges that accelerator pedal was depressed promptly and too strongly such as misoperation of it. This system operates when the vehicle is at stop or moving forward or backward at a speed of approximately 10 km/h (6 mph).
When the Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation System operates, the warning display appears on the information screen of the multi information
display, and the buzzer sounds intermittently. Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation System ON/OFF is switched in conjunction with the ON/OFF state of the Forward Collision Mitigation. (Vehicles equipped with Forward Collision Mitigation System)SituationOperation displayBuzzerWhen an obstacle is detected in front of your vehicle with the
select position in the “D”, if the accelerator pedal is depressed promptly and too strongly, the motor output is suppressed forup to approximately 5 seconds.

SituationOperation displayBuzzerWhen an obstacle is detected behind your vehicle with the se-
lector lever in the “R” position, if the accelerator pedal is de-
pressed promptly and too strongly, the motor output is sup- pressed for up to approximately 5 seconds.WARNINGl Do not overly rely on the Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation System. It is never a substitute for your safe and careful driving. Always be careful
to operate the accelerator pedal perceiving the environmental conditions. Misoperation can lead to a serious accident.
l As the Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation System is not a function to keep the stop condition of the vehicle, depress the brake pedal according to
the environmental condition.
l Depending on the situation, the system does not operate even if the vehicle or the obstacle in front and behind your vehicle and this may cause the
vehicle to start suddenly and lead to a serious accident.
l If the vehicle is trapped in the railway crossing because the system is activated as the crossing barrier is misrecognised as an obstacle, escape from
the railway crossing without any panic by one of the following methods.
• Release the foot from the accelerator pedal and lightly depress the pedal again.
• Turn the system OFF. (Continuously press the Forward collision mitigation system (FCM) and Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation System
ON/OFF switch for more than 3 seconds.)
• Continuously depress the accelerator pedal for more than 5 seconds.
• Repeat to press the accelerator pedal quickly to its full stroke more than 3 times.
l Do not perform inspection of the system operation on your own. Depending on the situation, this may cause the system to not operate properly and
lead to a serious accident.

• When you are driving on a road with steep and alternating up and down slopes.
• When a road surface is surging, and there is unevenness.
• When the system judges driver’s steering or gear shifting actions as evasive actions to avoid collision.
• For a short period after the system judges the repeated depression of the accelerator pedal at a few seconds interval as a release operation.
• When the vehicle body is extremely inclined by carrying heavy loads or improper adjustment of the tyre pressure.
• When the driving is unstable due to an accident or trouble.
• The system receives ultrasonic noise from other sources (the horns of other vehicles, motorcycle engines, brakes, radios, pouring rain, splashing water,
snow traction device (tyre chains), etc.).
• Obstacle is not vertical to the ground, the obstacle is not at right angles to vehicle traveling direction, or when there is uneven walls and wavy walls.

Blind Spot Warning (BSW)(with Lane Change Assist)* E00644300084
The Blind Spot Warning (BSW) is a driving aid system that alerts the driver when anothervehicle, which may not be visible through the outside rear-view mirror, is travelling in the
next lane behind your vehicle.
When a vehicle in the next lane is travelling at the same speed or faster in the detection areas, the Blind Spot Warning lamp in the
corresponding outside rear-view mirror will illuminate. If the turn-signal lever is operated
to the side where the Blind Spot Warning
lamp is illuminated, the Blind Spot Warning lamp will blink and the system will beepthree times to alert the driver.
Depending on the speed of your vehicle, the
Blind Spot Warning system will detect up to
approximately 70 m from your vehicle.WARNINGl Before using the BSW, read this entire
section to fully understand the limitationsof this system. Failure to follow instruc- tions could result in an accident.
l Never rely solely on the BSW system
when changing lanes. The BSW is an aidonly. It is not a substitute for your safe
and careful driving. Always check visually
behind and all around your vehicle for other vehicles. The performance of theBSW may vary depending on driving,
traffic and/or road conditions.Detection areas
E00644400115
The BSW uses 2 sensors (A) located inside
the rear bumper.
The detection areas are shown as illustrated.
WARNINGl In certain situations, the BSW may not
detect a vehicle in the detection areas or
the detection may be delayed. Some of these include:
• When a small motorcycle or a bicycle is
behind your vehicle.
