Wi t h t h e A C C tu r ned on ( i n th e ‘ s t an dbystate’), push down the “SET -” switch whiledriving.When your desired speed is reached, releasethe “SET -” switch; then this speed is set andthe ACC initiates the speed control to the setspeed.
The set speed is indicated on the informationscreen of the multi-information display.The ACC can be selected between approxi-mately 40 km/h to 180 km/h.Yo u c a n s e t a n d i n i t i a t e t h e s p e e d c o n t r o lwhen driving at approximately 10-40 km/hwhile a vehicle in front is being detected. Inthis case, the target speed is set to 40 km/h.Setting to any speed outside this range doesnot cause the ACC to start the control.When the ACC is initialized, a buzzer soundis heard and the “SET” indicator lights up onthe screen. At the same time, the displayshowing the following distance setting andthe running-ahead vehicle symbol (only whenthe ACC is detecting a vehicle in front) isswitched to the in-control mode display.
NOTE
zEven if the ACC is in the activated statewhen the operation mode is set to “OFF”, thesystem does not automatically become acti-vated when the operation mode is set to“ON” next time.

NOTE
zThe ACC cannot start the control when anyof the following conditions is present. Youare alerted to this state by a sounding buzzer.•When the vehicle speed is lower thanapproximately 10 km/h or 180 km/h orhigher.•When the vehicle is running at a speedbetween approximately 10 and 40 km/h andthe ACC is not detecting any vehicle infront.•When the ASC is in the OFF state.•When ABS, ASC or TCL is working.•When the selector lever is in a positionother than “D” (DRIVE).• While the brake pedal is being depressed.•When the parking brake is engaged.•When the system determines that its perfor-mance has been degraded due to contami-nants adhered to the sensor.•When there is any abnormality in the sys-tem.

m Cruise control (automatic speed controlsystem) P.7-35
E00635101041
The FCM uses a sensor (A) to determine thedistance to a vehicle in front in the same laneand its speed relative to your vehicle’s speed.If the system judges that your vehicle is indanger of colliding against the vehicle almoststraight from behind, it gives you visual andaudible alarms (Forward collision warningfunction), increases the brake fluid pressure(FCM brake prefill function), and also pro-vides braking force assistance when you
depress the brake pedal (FCM brake assistfunction) to avoid frontal collision.When the risk of collision increases more, thesystem causes the brakes to work moderatelyto encourage you to apply brakes. If the sys-tem judges that a potential collision is immi-nent, it initiates emergency braking tomitigate collision-caused damages or to avoidpossible collision (FCM braking function).Stop lamps are illuminated during automaticbraking.
E00635401031
If the system judges that there is a risk ofyour vehicle colliding with a vehicle in front,
CAUTIONzCruise control (automa
tic vehicle speed con-
trol system) does not alert by proximityalarm and control dist
ance between vehicles
to the vehicle in front.
Forward Collision Mitiga-tion System (FCM)
*
WA R N I N GzA driver is responsible for driving safely.The FCM is the system to mitigate colli-sion-caused da
mages or to avoid collisions
as much as possible.The system is not intended to compensatefor driver’s loss of attention to the frontduring driving due to distraction or care-lessness or supplement a drop in visibilitydue to the rain and fog.It is never a substitute for your safe andcareful driving. Always be ready to applythe brakes manually.zThe FCM works to avoi
d frontal collisions
as much as possible.
However, the effect of
its operation varies
depending on situa-
tions and conditions, such as driving con-ditions, road conditions, and steering,acceleration and braking operations, sothat the performanc
e the function can
deliver is not always the same.If your vehicle is in danger of collision,take all necessary
collision-evading
actions, such as de
pressing the brake
pedal strongly regardless of whether thesystem is activated or not.

This switch is used to turn on and off theFCM and also to select your desired collisionalarm timing.When the switch is held pressed, the ON/OFFstate of the FCM changes from ON to OFFand vice versa. If you give the switch a shortpress with the FCM in the ON state, you canchange the collision alarm timing.
Yo u c a n s w i t c h t h e s y s t e m f r o m O F F t o O Nor ON to OFF if you hold the FCM ON/OFFswitch pressed when the operation mode isset to “ON”.Once the system is turned on, a buzzersounds, the information screen of the multi-information display shows the collision alarmtiming currently selected, and the “FCMOFF” indicator on the screen goes out.When you turn off the system, a buzzer soundand, at the same time, the “FCM OFF” mes-sage appears on the screen and the “FCMOFF” indicator comes on.Cycling the operation mode to ON will setthe FCM back ON.
•When installing the spare tyre for emer-gency.•When tyre chains are attached.zImproperly handling the system componentsmay result in such problems as degraded sen-sor performance and ultimately in an acci-dent. Be sure to take the followingprecautions to keep the system in good oper-ating conditions.•Avoid application of
strong shock loads to
the sensor and never tamper with or removethe sensor mounting screws.• The cover in front of the sensor and the sen-sor should be kept clean.•Do not cover the sensor mounted area ofthe vehicle or the sensor cover with asticker or anything such as a grill guardetc..•The sensor front cove
r should not be modi-
fied or painted.•Avoid using different
size tyres from those
specified and maintain even tyre wear.•Do not modify the suspension of your vehi-cle.
zIf the sensor mounted area of the vehicle isdeformed due to an acci
dent or some other
causes, turn off the system and please con-tact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS AuthorisedService Point.CAUTION
NOTE
zA sound will be heard during the activationof automatic braking, this is a function of thebrake control and is not abnormal.

This system operates when you are backingthe vehicle. It uses corner and back sensors todetect an obstacle and the information screenin the multi information display and thebuzzer to inform you of the approximate dis-tance to the obstacle.
E00615601473
The detection areas of the corner and backsensors are limited to those shown in theillustration. Moreover, the sensors are unableto detect low or thin objects or objects nearthe rear bumper. Thus, make sure to check thesurroundings as you operate the vehicle in asafe manner.There are two corner sensors (A) at the cor-ners of the rear bumper, and two back sensors(B) in the centre of the rear bumper.

CAUTION
CAUTIONzThe reversing sensor system assists you indetermining the approximate distancebetween the vehicle and an obstacle locatedbehind the vehicle. It has limitations in termsof detectable areas and objects, and may notproperly detect some objects. Therefore, donot place excessive confidence in the revers-ing sensor system, and operate the vehicle ascarefully as you would
a vehicle without this
system.zMake sure to check the surroundings withyour own eyes to ensure safety. Do not oper-ate the vehicle by relying on the reversingsensor system alone.

Depending on whether the vehicle isequipped with a towbar, you can change thereversing sensor system between the standardmode and the towbar mode. The towbar modechanges the system to exclude the area inwhich the towbar is mounted from the detec-tion areas.The detection areas are within approximately60 cm (A) from the corner sensors, 150 cm(B) from the back sensors, and 60 cm (C) orless from the ground surface, excluding thearea approximately 10 cm (D) from theground surface.

NOTE
zIf the rear bumper has been exposed to animpact, the corner or back sensors may failand prevent the system from functioningproperly. Have the vehicle inspected at aMITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorised ServicePoint.zThe sensors do not detect objects located inthe area directly below or near the bumper. Ifthe height of an object is lower than themounted position of the corner or back sen-sors, the sensors may not continue detectingit even if they detected it initially.CAUTIONzThe reversing sensor
system may not operate
properly under the following conditions:•The sensors or surroundings are coveredwith ice, snow, or mud.•The sensors are frozen.•The system receives ultrasonic noise fromother sources (the horns
of other vehicles,
motorcycle engines, brakes, radios, pouringrain, splashing water,
snow traction device
(tyre chains), etc.).•The sensors are extremely hot or cold(while the vehicle is parked for a longperiod of time under a blazing sun or incold weather).
