heating MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER PHEV 2017 Owner's Manual (in English)

NOTElDepending on the usage of the vehicle, the
engine may not start for a long period of
time and unused fuel will remain in the fuel tank. Fuel can deteriorate over time, which
can adversely affect the engine and/or the
fuel system.
If the vehicle is not refueled with more than
15 litres at least once every 3 months, the engine will automatically start, while the ready indicator is illuminated, to help pre-vent deterioration of the fuel. At that time,
charging of the drive battery will start and the battery charge mode display will appear
on the information screen in the multi infor-
mation display. The charging will stop, how-
ever, before the drive battery is fully charg- ed.
The engine may also start even while the EV drive mode is selected or the vehicle is sta-
tionary.
To stop the engine from starting automati-
cally when the vehicle is operated on the drive battery power only for a long time,start the engine and drive the vehicle enough
to reduce the fuel level to approximately half
tank. Refill the fuel tank with at least 15 li- tres of unleaded petrol.Refueling (gasoline)
E00203800060
CAUTIONl If the warning display appears, refuel imme-
diately.
If the vehicle runs out of fuel, the engine will not start even in a situation need to be
generated electricity, the following condi- tions will occur.
• The driving performance falls (since only
the electrical power stored in the drive battery can be used for the driving).
• The heating performance is not available
(except vehicles with electric heater).
• The effectiveness of the heater is insuffi-
cient (vehicles with electric heater).
• The catalytic converter may be damaged
due to excessive high temperature.
Refer to “Filling the fuel tank” on page
2-15.
Refer to “Fuel remaining display screen” on page 6-10.CAUTIONl The fuel in the fuel tank may not be con-
sumed and it may stagnate for a long time
depending on the use situation of the vehi- cle, the quality of fuel may change, and it
may have a bad influence on the engine or the parts of a fuel system.
Observe the following instructions for pre-
vention.
• Press the battery charge mode switch to
start the engine within 3 months at once.
Refer to “Battery charge mode switch” on page 7-28.
• Refill the fuel more than 15 litres at once
within 3 months. If the fuel remaining dis-
play will be below half, you can refill the
fuel more than 15 litres certainly.
Refer to “Fuel remaining display screen” on page 6-10.Drive battery
E00205000066WARNINGlA sealed lithium ion high voltage battery
(drive battery) is adopted for OUTLAND-
ER PHEV . If the drive battery is disposed
of improperly, there is a risk of severe burns and electrical shock that may resultin serious injury or death and there is also
a risk of environmental damage.
l Never attempt to use the drive battery for
any other purpose.
Drive battery
2-04OGGE17E1General information2

lSince the air conditioning (cooling or
heating) consumes power of the drive battery, its operation results in a shorterEV cruising range. Maintain an appro-
priate temperature.
l Put the selector lever to “B” (BRAKE)
position according to the road condition. To charge the drive battery with appro-priate use of the regenerative brake, it
can be increased the EV cruising range.Acoustic Vehicle Alerting
System (AVAS) E00205200042
The Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System(AVAS) is a device that uses sound to alert
pedestrians of the presence of the vehicle. The system operates when the vehicle speed
is about 35 km/h (22 mph) or less and the en-
gine is not running.
Refer to “Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System
(AVAS)” on page 7-29.
WARNINGl Even if the Acoustic Vehicle Alerting Sys-
tem (AVAS) sounds, pay special attention
to pedestrians.
Pedestrians may not notice the oncoming vehicle, which may cause an accident re-
sulting in serious personal injury or death.Operating sound under
charging or Remote ClimateControl E00205700050
Even if the operation mode of the powerswitch is OFF, you may hear an operating
sound such as the cooling fan for cooling the drive battery during charging, the air condi-
tioning compressor and for remote climate control (if so equipped).
This is not a malfunction.
Refer to “MITSUBISHI Remote control: Re-
mote Climate Control” on page 3-24.
In case of a collision
E00205300030
A crash or impact significant enough to re-
quire an emergency response for convention- al vehicles would also require the same re-sponse for Outlander PHEV.
Also follow the instructions described below
to avoid severe burns and electrical shock
that may result in serious injury or death.WARNINGl If your vehicle is drivable, pull your vehi-
cle off the road to a safe, nearby location
and remain on the scene.
Also, if possible, do the following opera- tions and stay out of the way of any on- coming traffic while awaiting the arrival
of emergency responders.
• Apply chocks to the wheels.
• Put the select position in “P” (PARK)
position.
• Apply the parking brake.
• Open the windows, doors and tailgate.
• Put the operation mode in OFF.
• Turn on the hazard warning flashers.
• Move the key away from the vehicle to
prevent unintended start-up of the sys- tem by inadvertent contact with a switch or impact from the crash.
l Never touch high-voltage wiring, connec-
tors, and other high-voltage parts, such as
the inverter unit and drive battery. An electric shock may occur if exposed elec-
tric wires are visible when viewed from inside or outside of your vehicle. For their locations, see “High-voltage components”
on page 2-08.

Economical drivingE00600102422
For economical driving, there are some tech- nical requirements that have to be met. Theprerequisite for low fuel consumption is a
properly adjusted engine. In order to achieve longer life of the vehicle and the most eco- nomical operation, we recommend you tohave the vehicle checked at regular intervals in accordance with the service standards.
Fuel economy and generation of exhaust gas
and noise are highly influenced by personal
driving habits as well as the particular operat- ing conditions. The following points shouldbe observed in order to minimize wear of
brakes, tyres and engine as well as to reduce
environmental pollution.
Starting and acceleration
Avoid driving when the accelerator pedal ispressed way down, such as for unnecessarily sudden starts, acceleration and deceleration.
Smoothly depress the accelerator pedal.
Observe the speed limit and keep the speed
as constant as possible while driving.
Idling
Parking for a long period with the ready indi-
cator illuminated will shorten the cruising
range.
Speed
The higher the vehicle speed, the more drive
battery is consumed. Avoid driving at full speed. Even a slight release of the accelerator
pedal will save a significant amount of drive battery.
Tyre inflation pressure
Check the tyre inflation pressures at regular intervals. Low tyre inflation pressure increa-ses road resistance and fuel consumption. In addition, low tyre pressures adversely affect
tyre wear and driving stability.
Cargo loads
Do not drive with unnecessary articles in the
luggage compartment. Especially during city
driving where frequent starting and stopping is necessary, the increased weight of the ve-
hicle will greatly affect fuel consumption. Al- so avoid driving with unnecessary luggage or carriers, etc., on the roof; the increased air re- sistance will increase fuel consumption.
Air conditioning
Too much cooling/heating can affect the cruising range, so maintain an appropriatetemperature to extend the cruising range.
Driving, alcohol and drugs
E00600200070
Driving after drinking alcohol is one of the
most frequent causes of accidents.
Your driving ability can be seriously im- paired even with blood alcohol levels far be-
low the legal minimum. If you have been drinking, don’t drive. Ride with a designated non-drinking driver, call a cab or a friend, or
use public transportation. Drinking coffee or
taking a cold shower will not make you so- ber.
Similarly, prescription and nonprescription
drugs affect your alertness, perception and re- action time. Consult with your doctor or
pharmacist before driving while under the in- fluence of any of these medications.WARNINGl NEVER DRINK AND DRIVE.
Your perceptions are less accurate, your
reflexes are slower and your judgment is impaired.Safe driving techniques
E00600301775
Driving safety and protection against injury
cannot be fully ensured. However, we recom- mend that you pay extra attention to the fol-
lowing:

Electric parking brake switch twice (once
more after the operation is completed once).
The maximum effect of the parking brake will be obtained.
l If the parking brake does not hold the vehi-
cle stationary after the foot brake is released,
contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point.
l When the operation mode of the power
switch is other than ON, if the Electric park- ing brake is applied, the Electric parking
brake indication lamp comes on for a while.
NOTEl If the Electric parking brake switch is re-
peatedly operated in a short time, the follow-
ing warning display will appear in the multi- information display and the Electric parkingbrake will temporarily stop working. In such
case, wait for approximately 1 minute until
the warning display disappears, and operate the Electric parking brake switch again.
l The brake warning lamp (red) and the indi-
cation lamp on the Electric parking brakeswitch may blink. This does not indicate a malfunction, the lamps go off when/if theElectric parking brake is released.
