The ACC control is automatically cancelled
and the ACC is placed in the ‘standby’ state
in any of the situations listed below; you are
alerted to this condition by the sound of a
buzzer and a message on the display. You can
make the system restart the control by using
the “SET -” or “RES +” switch if the condi-
tions for resuming the control are reestablish-
ed.
l
When your vehicle stops as the vehicle
in front stops.
l
When ASC is turned off.
l
When ABS, ASC or TCL is in operation.
l
When the select position is in the “P”
(PARK), the “R” (REVERSE) or the
“N” (NEUTRAL) position.
l
When the parking brake is applied.
WARNING
l
Although the set speed driving will be de-
activated when shifting to the “N” (NEU-
TRAL) position, never move the selector
lever to the “N” (NEUTRAL) position
while using regenerative braking as it
could cause a serious accident.
When the ACC system determines that its
performance has been degraded, a buzzer will
sound and a message will be displayed in the
multi information display.
This can occur when:
l
Foreign objects, such as dirt, snow or
ice, adhere to the surface of the sensor.
l
There are adverse weather conditions,
such as rain, snow or sand storms, etc.
l
A vehicle in front or an oncoming vehi-
cle is splashing water, snow or dirt.
l
Driving on a nonbusy road with a few
vehicles and obstacles in front.
l
The brake system is overheating due to
continuous brake control on long down-
hill road.
If the display keeps showing the message,
there is a possibility that the ACC has a mal-
function. Contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.
When the ACC system detects an abnormali-
ty in the system, the ACC system will be
turned off, a buzzer will sound and a message
will be displayed in the multi information
display.
If the message remains after the operation
mode has been turned to the “OFF” position
and then turned back to the “ON” position,
contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point.
