Hill start assist

E00628001237

The hill start assist makes it easy to start off
on a steep uphill slope by preventing the ve-
hicle  from  moving  backwards.  It  keeps  the
braking  force  for  about  2  seconds  when  you
move  your  foot  from  the  brake  pedal  to  the
accelerator pedal.

CAUTION

Do not overly rely on the hill start assist to
prevent backwards movement of the vehicle.
Under certain circumstances, even when hill
start assist is activated, the vehicle may
move backwards if the brake pedal is not
sufficiently depressed, if the vehicle is heav-
ily loaded, or if the road is very steep or slip-
pery.

The hill start assist is not designed to keep
the vehicle stopped in place on uphill slopes
for more than 2 seconds.

When facing uphill, do not rely on using the
hill start assist to maintain a stopped position
as an alternative to depressing the brake ped-
al.
Doing so could result in an accident.

Do  not  turn  the  operation  mode  in  ACC  or
OFF  while  the  hill  start  assist  is  operating.
The  hill  start  assist  could  stop  operating,
which could result in an accident.

brake pedal.

2. Put the select position to the “D” posi-

tion.

NOTE

When reversing on an uphill slope, put the
select position to the “R” position.

3. Release the brake pedal and the hill start

assist will maintain the braking force ap-
plied while stopped for approximately 2
seconds.

4. Depress the accelerator pedal and the

hill start assist will gradually decrease
the braking force as the vehicle starts
moving.

NOTE

The hill start assist is activated when all of
the following conditions are met.

•

The Plug-in Hybrid EV System is operat-
ing.
(The hill start assist will not be activated
while the Plug-in Hybrid EV System is
starting or immediately after the Plug-in
Hybrid EV System has started.)

•

Brake assist system

E00627001793

The brake assist system is a device assisting
drivers  who  cannot  depress  the  brake  pedal
firmly when it is necessary to do so (such as
in  emergency  stop  situations)  and  provides
greater braking force.

If the brake pedal is depressed suddenly, the
brakes  will  be  applied  with  more  force  than
usual.

CAUTION

The  brake  assist  system  is  not  a  device  de-
signed to exercise braking force greater than
its capacity. Make sure to always keep a suf-
ficient  distance  between  your  vehicle  and  a
vehicle  in  front  of  you  without  relying  too
much on the brake assist system.

NOTE

Once the brake assist system is operational,
it maintains great braking force even if the
brake pedal is lightly released.
To stop its operation, completely remove
your foot from the brake pedal.

NOTE

When the brake assist system is in use, you
may  feel  as  if  the  depressed  brake  pedal  is
soft,  the  pedal  moves  in  small  motions  in
conjunction with the sound of the ABS oper-
ation,  or  the  vehicle  body  and  the  steering
wheel  vibrate.  This  occurs  when  the  brake
assist system is operating normally and does
not  indicate  faulty  operation.  Continue  to
firmly depress the brake pedal.

You may hear an operation noise when the
brake pedal is depressed suddenly while sta-
tionary. This does not indicate a malfunction
and the brake assist system is operating nor-
mally.

When the anti-lock brake system warning
lamp or only Active Stability Control warn-
ing lamp illuminate, the brake assist system
in not functioning.

Emergency stop signal
system

E00626001259

This is a device that reduces the possibility of
rear end collisions by the rapid and automatic
blinking of the hazard warning lamps to alert
vehicles  approaching  from  behind  during
sudden  braking.  When  the  emergency  stop
signal  system  operates,  the  hazard  warning
indication  lamp  in  the  instrument  cluster
blinks rapidly at the same time.

CAUTION

If the ABS warning or ASC warning is dis-
played,  the  emergency  stop  signal  system
may  not  operate.  Refer  to  “ABS  warning
lamp/display” on page 7-41.
Refer  to  “ASC  warning  lamp/display”  on
page 7-45.

NOTE

[Activating condition for the emergency stop
signal system]
It activates when all of the following condi-
tions are met.

•

The vehicle speed is approximately
55 km/h (34 mph) or higher.

•

The brake pedal has been depressed, and
the system judges that it was sudden brak-
ing from the vehicle deceleration and the
operating condition of the anti-lock brake
system (ABS).

[Deactivating condition for the emergency
stop signal system]
It deactivates when one of the following
conditions is met.

•

The brake pedal is released.

•

The hazard warning flasher switch is
pressed.

•

The system judges that it was not sudden
braking from the vehicle deceleration and
the operating condition of the anti-lock
brake system (ABS).

Anti-lock brake system
(ABS)

E00607102489

Environmental conditions can have an effect
on  braking.  During  sudden  braking  when
there is snow, ice, oil, water etc. on the road
surface,  a  skid  may  occur.  In  this  situation,
steering  control  and  braking  effectiveness  is
reduced  and  the  stopping  distance  is  in-
creased. The vehicle may also go into an un-
controlled spin.
The ABS helps prevent the wheels from lock-
ing  during  braking,  thus  maintaining  direc-
tional  stability,  ensuring  controllability  and
providing optimum braking force.

Operating hints

Always maintain the same distance from
the vehicle in front of you as you would
for a vehicle not equipped with ABS.
Compared with vehicles not fitted with
ABS, your vehicle may require a longer
stopping distance in the following cases:

• Driving on gravel or snow-covered

roads.

• Driving with snow traction device

(tyre chains) installed.

• Driving on roads where the road sur-

face is pitted or has other differences
in surface height.

• Driving on bumpy roads or other poor

driving surfaces.

Operation of ABS is not restricted to sit-
uations  where  brakes  are  applied  sud-
denly.  This  system  may  also  operate  to
prevent wheel lock when you are driving
over  manholes,  steel  road-work  plates,
or the vehicle is driven over steps or lev-
el differences in the road, road markings,
or  other  surfaces  which  are  difficult  for
the wheels to grip.

When  the  ABS  is  activated,  you  may
feel the brake pedal pulsation and the vi-
brations of the vehicle body and steering
wheel. You may also hear a characteris-
tic noise. At this time, you may feel as if
the  pedal  attempts  to  resist  being  de-
pressed.
This is a normal result of the ABS oper-
ation, and does not indicate a problem.
If  this  situation  occurs,  depress  the
brake  pedal  more  firmly  in  order  to
operate  the  ABS.  Do  not  pump  the
brake.  This  will  result  in  reduced
braking performance.

You will hear the operation sound of the
motor  coming  from  the  Plug-in  Hybrid
EV  System  compartment  immediately
following start off after starting the Plug-
in Hybrid EV System. If the brake pedal
is  depressed  at  that  moment,  you  can
feel the brake pedal pulsating.
This pulsation is due to the self-diagno-
sis  operation  of  the  ABS  and  does  not
indicate a malfunction.

The  ABS  will  operate  after  the  vehicle
has  accelerated  to  a  speed  in  excess  of
approximately 10 km/h (6 mph). It stops
operating  when  the  vehicle  decelerates
to a speed below about 5 km/h (3 mph).

CAUTION

Even  the  ABS  cannot  prevent  the  natural
laws of physics from acting on the vehicle. It
cannot for instance avoid accidents that may
result from excessive speed on bends or fol-
lowing  another  vehicle  too  closely  or  aqua-
planing. It should remain the driver’s task to
observe  safety  precautions  to  judge  speeds
and brake applications correctly in such con-
ditions.

Be sure to use tyres of the same type and
size on 4 wheels.
If tyre types or sizes are mixed, ABS may
not function normally.

Under  normal  conditions,  the  ABS  warning
lamp  only  comes  on  when  the  operation
mode  is  put  in  ON  and  goes  off  a  few  sec-
onds later.

CAUTION

Any  of  the  following  warning  lamp/display
behaviour indicates that the ABS is not func-
tioning  and  only  the  standard  brake  system
is  working.  (The  standard  brake  system  is
functioning  normally.)  If  this  happens,  take
your  vehicle  to  a  MITSUBISHI  MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.

•

When the operation mode is put in ON,
the warning lamp does not come on or it
remains on and does not go off.

luminate while driving

E00607302494

If only the ABS warning lamp/

display illuminate

Avoid hard braking and high-speed driv-
ing. Stop the vehicle in a safe place.
Restart  the  Plug-in  Hybrid  EV  System
and check to see whether the lamp goes
out after a few minutes driving; if it then
remains  off  during  driving,  there  is  no
problem.
However, if the lamp does not go out, or
if  it  lights  up  again  when  the  vehicle  is
driven,  we  recommend  you  to  have  the
vehicle checked as soon as possible.

If  you  start  Plug-in  Hybrid  EV  System
when the auxiliary battery voltage is in-
sufficient,  ABS  warning  lamp/display
may  illuminate,  but  this  is  not  a  failure
of ABS. When the drive battery is charg-
ed, the auxiliary battery is also charged,
and  the  warning  lamp/display  will  go
out. If the warning lamp/display contin-
ues illuminating even after the battery is
sufficiently  charged  or  the  warning
lamp/display  illuminates  frequently,
have  your  vehicle  inspected  by  a
MITSUBISHI  MOTORS  Authorized

Electric power steering
system (EPS)

E00629201294

The power steering system operates while the
Plug-in Hybrid EV System is operating.
It  helps  reduce  the  effort  needed  to  turn  the
steering wheel.
The  power  steering  system  has  mechanical
steering capability in case the power assist is
lost. If the power assist is lost for some rea-
son, you will still be able to steer your vehi-
cle,  but  you  will  notice  it  takes  much  more
effort to steer. If this happens, have your ve-
hicle inspected at a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.

WARNING

Do  not  stop  the  Plug-in  Hybrid  EV  Sys-
tem while the vehicle is moving. Stopping
the  Plug-in  Hybrid  EV  System  would
make  the  steering  wheel  extremely  hard
to turn, possibly resulting in an accident.

NOTE

During  repeated  full-lock  turning  of  the
steering  wheel  (for  example,  while  you  are
manoeuvring  the  vehicle  into  a  parking
space), a protection function may be activa-
ted  to  prevent  overheating  of  the  power
steering system. This function will make the
steering  wheel  gradually  harder  to  turn.  In
this event, limit your turning of the steering
wheel  for  a  while.  When  the  system  has
cooled down, the steering action will return
to normal.

If you turn the steering wheel while the vehi-
cle  is  stationary  with  the  headlamps  on,  the
headlamps may become dim. This behaviour
is  not  abnormal.  The  headlamps  will  return
to  their  original  brightness  after  a  short
while.

CAUTION

Do not over-rely on the ASC. Even the ASC
cannot prevent the natural laws of physics
from acting on the vehicle.
This system, like any other system, has lim-
its and cannot help you to maintain traction
and control of the vehicle in all circumstan-
ces. Reckless driving may lead to accidents.
It is the driver’s responsibility to drive care-
fully. This means taking into account the
traffic, road and environmental conditions.

Be sure to use the same specified type and
size of tyre on all 4 wheels. Otherwise, the
ASC may not work properly.

CAUTION

Do not install any aftermarket limited-slip
differential (LSD) on your vehicle. The ASC
may stop functioning properly.

NOTE

An operation noise may be emitted from the
Plug-in  Hybrid  EV  System  compartment  in
the  following  situations.  The  sound  is  asso-
ciated  with  checking  the  operations  of  the
ASC.  At  this  time,  you  may  feel  a  shock
from the brake pedal if you depress it. These
do not indicate a malfunction.

•

When the operation mode is put in ON.

•

When the vehicle is driven for a while af-
ter the Plug-in Hybrid EV System is
turned on.

When the ASC is activated, you may feel a
vibration in the vehicle body or hear a whin-
ing sound from the Plug-in Hybrid EV Sys-
tem compartment.
This indicates that the system is operating
normally. It does not indicate a malfunction.

When the anti-lock brake system warning
lamp is illuminated, the ASC is not active.

Traction control function

E00619000087

On  slippery  surfaces,  the  traction  control
function  prevents  the  drive  wheels  from  ex-
cessive  spinning,  thus  helping  the  vehicle  to
start moving from a stopped condition. It also
provides sufficient driving force and steering
performance as the vehicle turns while press-
ing the acceleration pedal.

CAUTION

When driving a vehicle on a snowy or icy
road, be sure to install snow tyres and drive
the vehicle at moderate speeds.

Stability control function

E00619101098

The  stability  control  function  is  designed  to
help the driver maintain control of the vehicle
on slippery roads or during rapid steering ma-
noeuvres.  It  works  by  controlling  the  Plugin
Hybrid  EV  System  output  and  the  brake  on
each wheel.

NOTE

The stability control function operates at
speeds of about 15 km/h (9 mph) or higher.

ASC OFF switch

E00619201871

The ASC is automatically activated when the
operation mode is put in ON. You can deacti-
vate the system by pressing down the ASC
OFF switch for 3 seconds or longer.
When the ASC is deactivated, the display/
indicator will turn on. To reactivate the ASC,
momentarily press the ASC OFF switch; the

indicator is turned off.

CAUTION

For safety reasons, the ASC OFF switch
should be operated when your vehicle is
stopped.

Be sure to keep the ASC on while driving in
normal circumstances.

CAUTION

In  case  you  turn  off  the  ASC  to  move  out
from  mud  or  sand  etc.,  press  the  ASC  OFF
switch  to  activate  the  ASC  quickly  after
moving out, and do not turn off the ASC un-
less it is necessary.

If  you  continue  to  race  the  tyre  by  depress-
ing  the  accelerator  pedal  too  much  while
ASC is turned off, parts such as the transaxle
may  be  damaged  and  this  could  lead  to  an
accident.

NOTE

When  moving  out  of  mud,  sand  or  fresh
snow, pressing the accelerator pedal may not
allow the Plug-in Hybrid EV System output
to  increase.  In  such  situations,  switching  to
“LOCK”  with  the  Drive  mode  switch  and
temporarily  turning  off  the  Active  Stability
Control  (ASC)  with  the  ASC  OFF  switch
will make it easier to move out your vehicle.
Refer  to  “Operation  under  adverse  driving
conditions: If your vehicle becomes stuck in
sand, mud or snow” on page 9-21.

By pressing the “ASC OFF” switch, both the
stability control function and the traction
control function are turned OFF.

If you continue to press the ASC OFF switch
after the ASC is turned off, the “mistaken
operation protection function” will activate
and the ASC will turn back on.

Speed Limiter*

E00633201093

The Speed Limiter is a driver assist function
to prevent from exceeding the speed set by
driver while Plug-in Hybrid EV System pow-
er control.

CAUTION

Because the system does not use service
brake (hydraulic brake), the vehicle speed
may exceed the set speed on the downhill.
If a driver wants to keep the vehicle speed in
such a situation, he/she must put on a service
brake.

If  the  vehicle  speed  exceeds  the  set  speed
(about  3  km/h  (2  mph)),  the  indicator  will
brink in the combination meter.
If  the  vehicle  speed  exceeds  the  set  speed
about  +3  km/h  (2  mph)  more  than  about  5
seconds  after  indicated  alert  message,  beep
alert  is  sounded  for  about  10  seconds  at  the
most.

While  running  without  alert  message,  if  you
decrease  the  set  speed  and  vehicle  speed  is
more than set speed about +3 km/h (2 mph),
alert  message  is  displayed  but  beep  alert  is
delayed.
In  this  case,  when  vehicle  speed  keeps  ex-
ceeding set speed about +3 km/h (2 mph) for
about  30  seconds  after  the  alert  message  is
appeared, beep alert is sounded for about 10
seconds at the most.
If  the  vehicle  speeds  decreases  less  than  set
speeds  after  the  alert  message  is  appeared,
the message is disappeared. When beep alert
is sounding, the beep alert also goes off.

NOTE

However, this gives priority to audio and
visual signal of safety reasons or driver’s de-
mand.
