Reversing sensor system warn-

ing display

E00615901519

In case there is a malfunction in the reversing
sensor  system,  the  display  for  the  malfunc-
tioning  sensor  will  blink  and  the  warning
buzzer  will  sound  for  approximately  5  sec-
onds.

Example: Corner sensor (left) malfunctioning

Even after the buzzer and display has stopped
warning,  the  indication  lamp  (A)  on  “SO-
NAR” switch will continue blinking until the
system  reverts  to  the  normal  state.  Have  the
vehicle  inspected  at  a  MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.

Parking sensors (Front/
Rear)*

E00647700092

When  parking  in  a  garage  or  during  parallel
parking, these sensors alert the driver to any
objects  near  the  vehicle  and  their  distance,
through  a  buzzer  and  the  sensor  display  on
the  information  screen  in  the  multi-informa-
tion display.

CAUTION

The  parking  sensors  assist  you  in  determin-
ing  the  approximate  distance  between  the
vehicle and any objects. It has limitations in
terms  of  detectable  areas  and  objects,  and
may  not  properly  detect  some  objects.
Therefore, do not place excessive confidence
in the parking sensors, and operate the vehi-
cle as carefully as you would do with vehicle
not equipped with this system.

Make sure to check the surroundings with
your own eyes to ensure safety. Do not oper-
ate the vehicle by relying on the parking sen-
sors alone.

Obstacle detection areas

E00647800136

The  detection  areas  of  the  corner  and  back
sensors  are  limited  to  those  shown  in  the  il-
lustration.  Moreover,  the  sensors  are  unable
to  detect  low  or  thin  objects  or  objects  near
the front or rear bumper. Thus, make sure to
check the surroundings as you operate the ve-
hicle in a safe manner.

Corner and back sensor loca-

tions

There are 8 sensors (A) in the front and rear
bumper.

Detection areas

Depending  on  whether  the  vehicle  is  equip-
ped  with  a  towing  bar,  you  can  change  the
parking  sensors  between  the  standard  mode
and  the  towing  bar  mode.  The  towing  bar
mode changes the system to exclude the area
in which the towing bar is mounted from the
detection areas.

Vehicles without a towing bar
The detection areas are within approximately
60 cm (A) from the front and corner sensors
and 125 cm (B) from the back sensors.

Vehicles with a towing bar
The detection areas are within approximately
60 cm (A) from the front and corner sensors
and 125 cm (B) from the back sensors. The
non-detection areas (C) are within approxi-
mately 20 cm (D) from the bumper.

NOTE

The sensors do not detect objects located in
the  area  directly  below  or  near  the  bumper.
If  the  height  of  an  object  is  lower  than  the
mounted position of the sensors, the sensors
may  not  continue  detecting  it  even  if  they
detected it initially.

For information on how to change the detec-
tion areas, please refer to “Changing the de-
tection areas” on page 7-100.

pear to be closer or further away than they
actually are.

Rear-view camera*

7-106

OGGE19E1

Starting and driving

NOTE

Because  the  rear-view  camera  has  a  special
lens,  the  lines  on  the  ground  between  park-
ing  spaces  may  not  look  parallel  on  the
screen.

In the following situations, the screen indi-
cation may be difficult to see. There is no
abnormality.

•

Low light (nighttime).

•

When the light of the sun or the light from
a vehicle’s headlamps shines directly into
the lens.

If the camera is hot and is then cooled by
rain or a car wash, the lens can mist up. This
phenomenon does not indicate a malfunc-
tion.

It is not possible to fully see obstacles when
the lens is dirty. If the lens becomes conta-
minated by water droplets, snow, mud or oil,
wipe off the contamination, taking care not
to scratch the lens.

Please observe the following cautions. Ig-
noring them could lead to a camera malfunc-
tion.

•

Do not subject the camera to physical
shock.

•

Do not apply wax to the camera.

•

Do not splash the camera with boiling wa-
ter.

•

Do not disassemble the camera.

Reference lines on the screen

E00649100061

Reference lines and upper surface of the rear
bumper (A) are displayed on the screen.

Red line (B) indicates approximately
50 cm behind the rear bumper.

Two Green lines (C) indicate approxi-
mately 20 cm outside of the vehicle
body.

Short transverse lines (1 to 3) indicate
distance from the rear bumper.

Check surroundings for safety.

1. Approximately at the rear edge of the

rear bumper (if so equipped)

2. Approximately 100 cm
3. Approximately 200 cm

Errors between the display and

the actual road surface

The  reference  lines  for  distance  and  vehicle
width are based on a level, flat road surface.
In  the  following  cases,  errors  are  produced
between  the  display  reference  lines  and  the
distance on the actual road surface.

When  the  rear  of  the  vehicle  is  weighed
down  with  the  weight  of  passengers  and
luggage in the vehicle
The reference lines are displayed closer than
the actual distance.
Therefore  when  there  is  an  obstacle  on  the
upward  slope,  it  appears  farther  than  its  ac-
tual position.

A: Actual objects
B: Objects shown on the screen

When there is an upward slope behind the
vehicle
The reference lines are displayed closer than
the actual distance.

When solid objects are located close to the
vehicle
When solid objects are located close to the
vehicle, the displayed distance on the screen
may differ from the actual distance.
Because the reference lines do not contact the
body of the truck, it looks as if it would not
hit the vehicle in following illustration.

However, the vehicle may hit the truck be-
cause the body of the truck strays onto the
course in reality.

Check surroundings for safety.

Rear-view camera*

OGGE19E1

Starting and driving

When approaching to solid objects
The  reference  lines  for  distance  and  vehicle
width are intended to indicate the distance to
a flat object such as a level, flat road surface.
This  may  make  the  distance  to  a  projecting
object  shown  on  the  screen  differ  from  the
actual  distance  to  the  projecting  object.  Do
not use them as a guide for distances to solid
objects.
Example:  On  the  screen  the  point  B  appears
the nearest, then the point C and A in order of
distance. The points A and B actually are the
same  distances  from  the  vehicle,  and  the
point C is farther off than the points A and B.

Check surroundings for your safety.

Multi Around Monitor*

E00645000310

The  Multi  Around  Monitor  is  a  system  that
shows the view combined with four cameras,
i.e.,  “Front-view  camera”,  “Side-view  cam-
eras (right and left)” and “Rear-view camera”
on  a  screen  of  the  DISPLAY  AUDIO,  the
Smartphone  Link  Display  Audio  or  the
MITSUBISHI Multi-Communication System
(MMCS). It assists drivers to park their vehi-
cles  in  parking  spaces  and  to  parallel  park
their vehicles.

CAUTION

The  Multi  Around  Monitor  is  an  assistance
system  that  enables  the  driver  to  check  the
safety  around  the  vehicle.  The  range  where
the  image  can  be  displayed  is  limited.  Do
not  place  too  much  confidence  in  the  Multi
Around Monitor and try to drive carefully in
the same way as for the vehicle not equipped
with the Multi Around Monitor.
Its  range  of  view  is  limited,  so  you  should
not overly depend on it. Please drive just as
carefully as you would if the vehicle did not
have the Multi Around Monitor.

Be sure to visually confirm safety around the
vehicle  with  your  own  eyes.  Especially,  the
four  corners  of  the  vehicle  become  blind
spots where an object is not displayed on the
Multi  Around  Monitor.  Do  not  depend  en-
tirely on the Multi Around Monitor.

CAUTION

Do  not  use  the  Multi  Around  Monitor  with
the  door  mirrors  folded  in  and/or  with  the
