zThe performance may be changed due tothe outside temperature.At low temperature, in particular, the EVcruising range is short and the chargingtime is long, compared to operation atnormal temperature.zThe battery is gradually discharged with-out use and the battery charge is lowered.zIt is not necessary to consume the batterycompletely before charging.zIf your vehicle is not used for a long time,check the drive battery level display every3 months.If the drive battery level display shows 0,charge the battery until some indicationappears. Alternately, put the operationmode of the power switch in “ON” to startthe engine automatically, wait for theengine to stop automatically, then put theoperation mode of the power switch in“OFF”.zMitsubishi Motors collects drive batteries.If you scrap your vehicle, please consult aMitsubishi Motors Authorised ServicePoint.

zEven if the charge level is the same, theEV cruising range may vary depending ondriving conditions. Since driving at highspeed or climbing on a hill requires higherconsumption of the drive battery thanusual, the EV cruising range is shortened.zSince the air conditioning (cooling orheating) consumes power of the drive bat-tery, its operation results in a shorter EVcruising range. Maintain an appropriatetemperature.zPut the selector lever to “B” (BRAKE)position according to the road condition.To c h a rg e t h e d r i v e b a t t e r y w i t h a p p r o p r i -ate use of the regenerative brake, it can beincreased the EV cruising range.

The Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System(AVAS) is device that uses sound to alertpedestrians of the presence of the vehicle.The system operates when the vehicle speedis about 35 km/h or less and the engine is notrunning.Refer to “Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System(AVAS)” on page 7-24.
E00204200029
A crash or impact significant enough torequire an emergency response for conven-tional vehicles would also require the sameresponse for Outlander PHEV.Also follow the instructions described belowto avoid severe burns and electrical shock thatmay result in serious injury or death.
Precautions for operation
EV cruising range Acoustic Vehicle Alerting Sys-tem (AVAS)
WA R N I N GzEven if the Acoustic Vehicle Alerting Sys-tem (AVAS) sounds, pay special attentionto pedestrians.Pedestrians may not notice the oncomingvehicle, which may cause an accidentresulting in serious
personal injury or
death.
In case of a collision
WA R N I N GzIf your vehicle is dr
ivable, pull your vehi-
cle off the road to a safe, nearby locationand remain on the scene.Also, if possible, do the following opera-tions and stay out of the way of anyoncoming traffic while awaiting thearrival 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 toprevent unintended start-up of the sys-tem by inadvertent contact with a switchor impact from the crash.
zNever touch high-voltage wiring, connec-tors, and other high-vol
tage parts, such as
the inverter unit and drive battery. Anelectric shock may occur if exposed elec-tric wires are visible when viewed frominside or outside of
your vehicle. For their
locations, see “High-
voltage components”
on page 2-7.zIf the vehicle receives a strong impact tothe floor while driving, stop the vehicle ina safe place and
check the floor.
zNever start the plug-in hybrid EV systemif you found the leak
of a liquid (except
water of the air conditioner) while check-ing the outside of the vehicle because thereis possibility the fuel system has beendamaged and causing of fire or exploding.In such case, immediately contact yourMITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Ser-vice Point.WA R N I N G
zLeaks or damage to the drive battery mayresult in a fire. If you discover them, con-tact emergency services immediately.Since the fluid leak may be lithium man-ganite from the Lithium-ion battery, nevertouch any fluid leaking from the inside oroutside of the vehicle. If the fluid contactsyour skin or eyes, wash
it off immediately
with a large amount of water and receiveimmediate medical attention to help avoidserious injury.zIf you are unable to safely assess the vehi-cle due to vehicle damage, do not touchthe vehicle. Leave the vehicle and contactemergency services. Advise emergencyresponders that this is a Plug-in Hybridvehicle.zIf a fire occurs in this vehicle, leave thevehicle as soon as possible and contactemergency services. Do not attempt toextinguish a fire by yourself. If the fireinvolves a lithium-ion battery, it willrequire large, sustained volumes of waterfor extinguishment. Using a small amountof water or the incorrect fire extinguishercan result in serious injury or death fromelectrical shock.zWhen you leave the vehicle, if possible,open the windows, doors and tailgate toprevent accumulation of poisonous/com-bustible gasses. This will
also assist in the
rescue and fire fighting process.WA R N I N G
zAs with any vehicle fire, the byproducts ofcombustion can be toxic. Do not inhalesmoke, vapors, or gas from the vehicle.Move to a safe distance upwind and uphillfrom the vehicle fire and out of the way ofany oncoming traffic while awaiting thearrival of emergency responders.zIf you detect leaking fluids, sparks, smoke,flames, gurgling, popping or hissing noisesoriginating from the high voltage batterycompartment, contact emergency servicesimmediately. This may result in a fire.zPhysical damage to the vehicle or highvoltage battery may result in immediate ordelayed release of toxic and/or flammablegases and fire.zIf your vehicle needs to be towed, trans-port the vehicle on a
flatbed truck or tow
the vehicle with all wheels off the ground.If the any wheels are on the ground whentowing, this may cause damage to the elec-tric motors. This may also cause a fire, ifwiring in the electric motor unit roombecomes damaged. Refer to “Towing” onpage 9-19.zDo not attempt to repair a damaged Plug-in Hybrid vehicle by yourself. Please con-tact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-ised Service Point for service.WA R N I N G

With the operation mode in ON, a buzzersounds under the following condition:zThe vehicle speed exceeds 8 km/h withthe parking brake applied.
E00502602938
This lamp is a part of anonboard diagnostic systemwhich monitors the emissions,engine control system.If a problem is detected in one
of these systems, this lamp illuminates orflashes.Although your vehicle will usually be driva-ble and not need towing, we recommend youto have the system checked as soon as possi-ble.This lamp will also illuminate when the oper-ation mode of the power switch is put in ON,and goes off after the Plug-in Hybrid EV Sys-tem has started. If it does not go off after thePlug-in Hybrid EV System has started, werecommend you to have the vehicle checked.
This data will be erased if a auxiliary batterycable is disconnected which will make a rapiddiagnosis difficult. Do not disconnect a auxil-iary battery cable when the check enginewarning lamp is ON.
CAUTIONzIn the situations listed below, brake perfor-mance may be compromised or the vehiclemay become unstable if brakes are appliedsuddenly; consequen
tly, avoid driving at
high speeds or applyi
ng the brakes suddenly.
Furthermore, immediately the vehicle shouldbe brought to a stop in
a safe location and we
recommend you to have it checked.•The brake warning lamp does not illumi-nate when the parking brake is applied ordoes not turn off when the parking brake isreleased.•The brake warning lamp and the ABSwarning lamp illuminate at the same time.For details, refer to “ABS warning lamp”on page 7-30.•The brake warning lamp remains illumi-nated while driving.
zThe vehicle should be brought to a halt in thefollowing manner when brake performancehas deteriorated.• Depress the brake pedal harder than usual.Even if the brake pedal moves down to thevery end of its possible stroke, keep itpressed down hard.
• Should the brakes fail, use regenerativebraking to reduce your speed and carefullypull the parking brake lever.Depress the brake pedal to operate the stoplamp to alert the vehicles behind you.
Check engine warning lamp
CAUTION
CAUTIONzProlonged driving with this lamp on maycause further damage to the emission controlsystem. It could also
affect fuel economy and
drivability.zIf the lamp does not illuminate when theoperation mode is put in ON, we recommendyou to have the system checked.zIf the lamp illuminates while the Plug-inHybrid EV System is
operating, avoid driv-
ing at high speeds and have the systeminspected by a MITSUBISHI MOTORSAuthorised Service Poin
t as soon as possible.
NOTE
zThe engine electronic control moduleaccommodating the onboard diagnostic sys-tem has various fault data (especially aboutthe exhaust emission) stored.
