Electrical Parking switch

CAUTION

Electrical Parking switch

If you operate the electrical parking switch

and the select lever repeatedly within a short

time, the shifting from the “P” position or to

the “P” position is restrained for a certain

period for the system protection. In such a

case, wait for a while and then perform the

operation.

If the parking lock mechanism is faulty, a

warning is displayed on the information

screen in the multi-information display.

When this warning is displayed, park on a

flat place with the parking brake securely

applied. Have your vehicle inspected by a

MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-

ice Point.

Be careful not to spill beverages, etc. around

the electrical parking switch. The electrical

parking switch may be stuck to the pressed

position when it is pressed.

When you park your vehicle, be sure to apply

the parking brake and press the electrical

parking switch to lock the wheels. The indi-

cator on the switch illuminates in green and

the select position indicator displays “P” on

the information screen in the meter.

NOTE

When the selector lever is shifted from the

“P” position or to the “P” position, operating

noise and vibration of the parking lock are

felt, but this is normal.

Electrical Parking switch re-

minder buzzer

If the driver’s door is opened with the select

position other than “P” when the vehicle is at

a stop, the buzzer sounds to warn to press the

electrical parking switch.

If you press the electrical parking switch be-

fore your vehicle stops completely, the vehi-

cle makes a sudden stop, which may cause

injury to passengers. This also can be a

cause of failure of the vehicle.

Do not place an object around the electrical

parking switch. The electrical parking switch

may be pressed by the object when you

place it there or when you somehow touch it.

This will cause unintentional shifting to “P”

or “N” position, which may lead to an acci-

dent.

Regenerative braking level

selector (paddle type)*

Regenerative braking level selector can

quickly change the regenerative brake force

keeping your hand on the steering wheel

when you release your foot from the acceler-

ator pedal while driving.

OGGE20E1

Regenerative braking level selector (paddle type)*

By pulling the regenerative braking level se-

lector, the brake force (amount of electrical

energy to charge the drive battery) can be ad-

justed according to the driving condition such

as before a curve or a downhill.

Regenerative braking level can be switched

in the 6 level from B0 (without regenerative

brake force) to B5 (large regenerative brake

force).

CAUTION

NOTE

If a large regenerative brake force is applied

on a slippery road, tyres may skid. Always

drive safely in accordance with the prevail-

ing road condition.

If you operate the right and left paddles si-

multaneously, the regenerative brake force

level may not change.

On vehicles with the adaptive cruise control

system (ACC), you cannot control the regen-

erative brake force level while the adaptive

cruise control system (ACC) is operating.

The buzzer sounds if you operate the pad-

dles.

To decrease regenerative brake

force

NOTE

Increase in

regenerative

brake force

Decrease in

regenerative

brake force

Repeated continuous operation of a paddle

will continuously change the brake force

levels.

If you turn on the SPORT mode, the regener-

ative braking force level will automatically

switch to B5. After the regenerative braking

force level is switched, the regenerative

braking level can be adjusted by the regener-

ative braking level selector.

Each time you pull the “+” paddle towards

you, the regenerative brake force lowers by

one level.

If you turn on the cruise control when the

level B0 or B1 (smaller regenerative brake

force) is selected, the level is returned to the

normal level B2 automatically.

When stronger regenerative braking is gen-

erated, the stop lamps will illuminate even

when the brake pedal is not depressed.

Under the cruise control, the level B0 or B1

cannot be selected. The buzzer sounds if you

try to select these levels.

S-AWC (Super All Wheel Control)

To increase regenerative brake

force

To return to the normal regen-

erative brake force level of B2

CAUTION

Do not over-rely on the S-AWC. Even the S-

AWC cannot prevent the natural laws of

physics from acting on the vehicle. This sys-

tem, like any other system, has limits and

cannot help you to maintain traction and

control of the vehicle in all circumstances.

Reckless driving may lead to accidents. It is

the driver’s responsibility to drive carefully.

This means taking into account the traffic,

road and environmental conditions.

Each time you pull the “−” paddle towards

you, the regenerative brake force rises by one

level.

Pull the “+” paddle for approximately 2 sec-

onds or longer. The select lever position indi-

cator displays “D”.

Twin Motor 4WD

This system improves vehicle stability per-

formance and fuel economy performance

during acceleration and deceleration by mo-

tors provided at front and rear wheels, re-

spectively, controlling the distribution of a

drive force between the front and rear wheels

optimal for the operation of the driver.

S-AWC (Super All Wheel

Control)

Active yaw control system

(AYC)

The AYC is a system, with a left-right differ-

ential limiting function and yaw control func-

tion, that controls the left-right driving/brak-

ing force by managing the brake.

S-AWC is an integrated vehicle dynamics

control system that helps enhance driving

performance, cornering performance, and ve-

hicle stability over a wide range of driving

conditions through integrated management of

the twin motor 4WD, the AYC (Active Yaw

Control), the ABS and the ASC.

to the driving condition.

Left-right differential limiting

function

The left-right differential limiting function is

a function that enhances driving performance

and vehicle stability by preventing idle spin-

ning of a wheel when driving on a slippery

road or when the road surfaces of left and

right wheels are different.

This mode is for driving

on slippery road surfaces,

such as snow-covered

roads and improves sta-

bility on a slippery road.

SNOW

LOCK

CAUTION

Use tyres of the same specified size, same

type, same brand and with no wear differ-

ence. If tyres of a different size, type, brand

or degree of wear are used, a warning of EV

system abnormality may be displayed.

This mode is for driving

where maximum traction

is required. This mode is

suitable for driving on

rough roads or driving in

sand or fresh snow.

Yaw control function

The yaw control function is a function that

enhances vehicle cornering performance and

vehicle stability with management of vehicle

turning power (yaw moment) by controlling

the brake force when the vehicle does not

turn in response to steering input, such as

when the steering wheel is turned quickly or

when driving on a slippery road.

NOTE

Even if the S-AWC drive mode is selected,

after turning the operation mode of the pow-

er switch OFF and turning to ON again, the

S-AWC drive mode is set to “NORMAL”.

The drive mode can be switched while driv-

ing or stopped.

Drive mode switch

When the operation mode of the power

switch is in ON, operate the drive mode

switch (A) to change the S-AWC drive mode.

4-wheel drive operation

Display example

S-AWC drive mode display

WARNING

The S-AWC operation status is displayed.

Always concentrate on your driving first.

Keep your eyes and mind on the road.

Distractions while driving can lead to an

accident.

4-wheel drive operation

Example: “SNOW” mode is selected.

Your vehicle has been designed primarily for

use on paved roads.

But its unique 4-wheel drive system allows

you to occasionally travel on unpaved roads,

to campgrounds, picnic sites, and similar lo-

cations.

Not only does this ensure better handling on

dry, paved roads but also permits better trac-

tion when driving on slippery, wet or snow-

covered roads and when moving out of mud.

But it is not suitable for heavy off road use or

towing in rough conditions.

It is particularly important to note that 4-

wheel drive may not give sufficient hill

climbing ability with the regenerative brake

on steep slopes. You should try to avoid driv-

ing on steep slopes.

Also, you must exercise caution when driving

on sand and mud and when driving through

water because sufficient traction may not be

available in certain circumstances.

Please avoid driving the vehicle through

areas where the tyres may get stuck in deep

sand or mud.

The currently selected drive mode is dis-

played on the multi-information display.

In addition, when the drive mode is changed,

the selected mode appears on the interrupt

display screen of the information screen in

the multi-information display.

The drive mode display will appear on the in-

formation screen for a few seconds, and then

the original screen will return.
