After approximately 30 minutes has elapsed
with the operation mode of the power switch
in ACC, the function automatically cuts out
the power for the audio system and other
electric devices that can be operated with that
position. {Only that driver’s door has closed
and the select position is in the “P” (PARK)

switch operate again, the power is supplied
again.

When the operation mode of the power
switch is in any mode other than OFF, if you
try to lock the doors and the tailgate by press-
ing the driver’s or front passenger’s door
lock/unlock switch, or the tailgate lock
switch, a warning display will appear and the
outer buzzer will sound and you cannot lock
the doors.
When the Hybrid EV System is not operat-
ing, put the operation mode of the power
switch in OFF. Leaving the operation mode
of the power switch in ON or ACC for a long
time when the Hybrid EV System is not
operating may cause the auxiliary battery to
be discharged, making it impossible to start
the Hybrid EV System, lock and unlock the
steering wheel.
When the auxiliary battery is disconnected,
the current operation mode of the power
switch is memorized. After reconnecting the
auxiliary battery, the memorized mode is
selected automatically. Before disconnect-
ing the auxiliary battery for repair or replace-
ment, make sure to put the operation mode of
the power switch in OFF.
Be careful if you are not sure which opera-
tion mode of the power switch the vehicle is
in when the auxiliary battery is run down.
The operation mode of the power switch can-
not be changed from OFF to ACC or ON if
the keyless operation key is not detected to
be in the vehicle. Refer to “Keyless opera-
tion system: Operating range for starting the
Hybrid EV System and changing the opera-
tion mode of the power switch” on page 3-8.
When there is the keyless operation key in
the vehicle and the operation mode of the
power switch isn’t change, the keyless oper-
ation key battery may have worn out.
If the operation mode of the power switch
cannot be changed to OFF, perform the fol-
lowing procedure.
1. Press the electrical parking switch to shift
to the “P” (PARK) position and lock the
wheels, and then change the operation
mode of the power switch to OFF.
2. One of the other causes could be low aux-
iliary battery voltage. If this occurs, the
keyless entry system, keyless operation
function, and steering lock will also not
operate. Contact an authorised
MITSUBISHI MOTORS dealer.
ACC power auto-cutout func-
tion
When the ACC power is automatically cut
out, you cannot lock the steering wheel and
you cannot lock and unlock the doors using
the keyless entry system or keyless operation
function.
It is possible to modify functions as follows:
• The time until the power cuts out can be
changed to approximately 60 minutes.
• The ACC power auto-cutout function can
be deactivated.
For details, consult an authorised
MITSUBISHI MOTORS dealer.
