Cautions and actions to deal with intense heat

When the ambient temperature is approximately 45 °C or higher, the phenomena described below may occur. Please take the described ac-

tion.

Even if the ambient temperature is approximately 45 °C or lower, when performing quick charging, driving at high-speed and uphill repeat-

edly, the phenomena described below may occur. Please take the described actions.

NOTE

*¹: Refer to “PROPULSION POWER IS REDUCED warning display” on page 6-48.

Display of the “PROPULSION POWER IS REDUCED” warning display does not indicate a malfunction.

*²: Refer to “BATTERY TOO COLD warning display” on page 6-25.

*³: Refer to “BATTERY TOO COLD FOR VEHICLE TO OPERATE” warning display” on page 6-25.

*⁴: Refer to “Ready indicator” on page 6-55.

*⁶: Refer to “Automatic OFF of the operation mode” on page 3-25.

To warm up the drive battery, you need to register your wireless LAN device (which conforms to IEEE 802.11 b and iOS or Android) to your vehicle by

MITSUBISHI Remote Control (if so equipped).

If the information of “ ” mark on the wireless LAN device is displayed, connect the EV charging cable as soon as possible. Refer to “MITSUBISHI

Remote Control” on page 3-20.

When warming the drive battery with the drive battery warming system (if so equipped), use the EV charging cable. When using a home charging device or

a public charging device (EVSE: Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment), charging and warm-up of the drive battery may be stopped. If this happens, disconnect

the charge connector and insert the charge connector again.

Accordingly, the drive battery warming system will be reactivated and you can start the Plug-in Hybrid EV system within 1 hour.

The drive battery warming system may not be activated depending on the situation.

While warming up the drive battery, the following phenomena may occur.

The operation sound of on board equipment and the state of charge is displayed on the multi-information display.

Refer to “Charging from rated AC 220-240 V outlet” on page 3-12.

•

Inside of the vehicle may be heated automatically.

The drive battery may not become full charge, or the remaining capacity of drive battery may decrease.
