E00626001073
This is a device that reduces the possibility ofrear end collisions by the rapid and automaticblinking of the hazard warning lamps to alertvehicles approaching from behind duringsudden braking. When the emergency stopsignal system operates, the hazard warningindicator lamp in the instrument clusterblinks rapidly at the same time.

Environmental conditions can have an effecton braking. During sudden braking whenthere is snow, ice, oil, water etc. on the roadsurface, a skid may occur. In this situation,steering control and braking effectiveness isreduced and the stopping distance isincreased. The vehicle may also go into anuncontrolled spin.The ABS helps prevent the wheels from lock-ing during braking, thus maintaining direc-
tional stability, ensuring controllability andproviding optimum braking force. zAlways maintain the same distance fromthe vehicle in front of you as you wouldfor a vehicle not equipped with ABS.Compared with vehicles not fitted withABS, your vehicle may require a longerstopping distance in the following cases:•Driving on gravel or snow-coveredroads.• Driving with snow traction device (tyrechains) installed.•Driving on roads where the road surfaceis pitted or has other differences in sur-face height.• Driving on bumpy roads or other poordriving surfaces.
zOperation of ABS is not restricted to situ-ations where brakes are applied suddenly.This system may also operate to preventwheel lock when you are driving overmanholes, steel road-work plates, or thevehicle is driven over steps or level differ-ences in the road, road markings, or othersurfaces which are difficult for the wheelsto grip.

*CAUTION zIf the ABS warning or ASC warning is dis-played, the emergency stop signal systemmay not operate. Refer to “ABS warninglamp/display” on page 7-30.Refer to “ASC warn
ing display” on page

z[Activating condition for the emergency stopsignal system]It activates when all
of the following condi-
tions are met.•The vehicle speed is approximately 55km/h or higher.
•The brake pedal has been depressed, andthe system judges that it was sudden brak-ing from the vehicle deceleration and theoperating condition of the anti-lock brakesystem (ABS).[Deactivating condition for the emergencystop signal system]It deactivates when one of the following con-ditions is met.•The brake pedal is released.• The hazard warning flasher switch ispressed.•The system judges that it was not suddenbraking from the vehicle deceleration andthe operating condition of the anti-lockbrake system (ABS).

E00615500374
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.
•When passing a road section where thenumber of lanes increases/decreases ormultiple lanes are crossing each other.•When the lane is marked by double or oth-erwise special lines.•When driving on a winding or rough road.•When driving on a sli
ppery road covered by
rain water, snow, ice, etc.•When passing through a place where thebrightness suddenly ch
anges, like the inlet
or outlet of a tunnel.•When turning steep curves.•When the road surface is reflecting the lightshining from the direction opposite to therunning direction.•Vehicle largely lurches when it is runningover steps or other irregularities of the roadsurface.•When the headlamp illumination is inade-quate because of contaminated or deterio-rated lenses or improperly aimedheadlamps.•When the vehicle is leaning much to oneside due to heavy l
uggage on it or improp-
erly adjusted tyre pressures.•When oncoming vehicl
es’ headlamps shine
the LDW camera.•When the vehicle is equipped with non-standard tyres (incl
uding excessively worn
tyres), uses snow tr
action device (tyre
chains), or has non-specified componentssuch as a modified suspension.CAUTION
•When the windscreen is covered with rainwater, snow, dust, etc.
zFollow the instructions given below to keepyour LDW in good operating conditions. •Always keep the windscreen clean.•Avoid applying a str
ong shock or pressure
to the LDW camera. Do not attempt to dis-assemble it.•Disturbing the installation of the LDWcamera or its removal is under no circum-stances permitted. The camera has beenprecisely oriented at the factory.• Do not put anything like a sticker on thearea in front of the LDW camera lens of thewindscreen.•Use only MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENU-INE Parts when replacing the windscreenwipers.

CAUTION
CAUTION zThe 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.
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. The non-detection areas (E)are within approximately 20 cm (F) from thebumper.
For information on how to change the detec-tion areas, please refer to “Changing thedetection areas” on page 7-66.

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.CAUTION zThe 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).
