Plug-in Hybrid EV System

Main features

It is operated as electric vehicle in the EV drive mode using the electrical power stored

in the drive battery,* remaining amount of the drive battery. It is

also automatic control* hybrid mode or parallel hybrid mode using engine power from EV drive mode according to the driving condition or if the charging level of the drive battery is decreased.

If there is a remaining amount in the

*1:

drive battery, it is actively driven in the EV drive mode. The cruising range varies depending on the remaining charge in the drive battery, vehicle speed, and air conditioner operating conditions.

Yo u c a n a d j us t th e ti m i ng t o s w it c h to

the EV drive mode by using the battery save switch. Refer to “Battery save switch” on page 7-22.

according to the

for driving in series

E00203500025

E00203600026

 With the high performance motor, noise

and vibration during driving are greatly limited and powerful acceleration can also be obtained.

 With the regenerative brake, the dr ive ba t-

tery is automatically charged when the accelerator is released.

 The vehicle can be charged from EV

charge power outlets (rated AC 240 V).

EV drive mode

 The vehicle is driven by the motors only

using electrical power stored in the drive battery. However, EV drive mode is cancelled depending on the drive battery level, vehicle speed, and air conditioner operating conditions. Pay attention to the following points:

•Check the EV cruising range in the information screen. Refer to “EV cruising range display/Total cruising range display” on page 6-13.

•Drive your vehicle at moderate speeds avoiding quick acceleration/deceleration. Repeated quick acceleration/deceleration causes the drive battery level to decrease quickly, which extremely reduces the EV cruising range.

Series hybrid mode

 The vehicle is driven by the motors only

using the electricity generated by the engine. This mode is used when the drive battery level is low, at quick acceleration, or when power is required like climbing uphill.

Parallel hybrid mode

 The vehicle is driven by the power of the

engine, assisted by motors. This mode is used during high-speed driving with better engine efficiency.

Powerful acceleration uphill road

such as mountain road

High-speed driving

Regenerative braking

Motion energy is converted into electric energy using the motor as a power generator. Then a braking force generates and converted electric energy will be charged to the drive battery.

 If you lift your foot off the accelerator pedal during driving, a braking force that equivalent to engine braking of a combustion engine vehicle

will be generated. Also, if you shift the select position into “B” (BRAKE) from “D” (DRIVE), effectiveness of the regenerative braking is getting strong. Shift the selector lever into “B” (BRAKE) position according to the driving condition.

 Regenerative brake force increases with the foot brake force when the brake pedal is depressed.  If a problem occurs in the Plug-in hybrid EV system, or if the ABS and/or the ASC have been activated, the regenerative braking will be

restricted. The foot brake will still operate.

Operation of gasoline engine

E00203700027

 Even when the vehicle is driving in EV

drive mode, it may be automatically changed to series hybrid mode or parallel hybrid mode in the following cases:

•The plug-in hybrid EV system is too hot or too cold.

•Quick acceleration is applied.

•The air conditioner is operating.

•The accelerator pedal is depressed hard on an uphill road or expressway.

•In cold weather

•The vehicle has not been refueled for a long time.

•The drive battery level is low.

In addition to the above, there are more cases where EV drive mode is automatically changed to series or parallel hybrid mode.

 Even while the vehicle is stopped, the

engine may automatically be started in the following cases:

•The drive battery level is low.

Plug-in Hybrid EV System

•The plug-in hybrid EV system is too hot or too cold.

•The air conditioner is used.

•The vehicle has not been used for a long time.

•The engine has not been operated for a long time.

Refueling (gasoline)

 If the warning display appears, refuel as

soon as possible. If the vehicle is runs out of fuel, the engine will not start even in a situation need to be generated electricity, the following conditions will occur.

•The driving performance falls (since only the electrical power stored in the drive battery can be used for the driving).

•The heating performance cannot be available (except vehicles with electric heater).

•The effectiveness of the heater is insufficient (vehicles with electric heater).

•The catalytic converter may be damaged due to excessive high temperature.

Refer to “Filling the fuel tank” on page 2-13. Refer to “Fuel remaining display screen” on page 6-9.

E00203800028

 Depending on the operating conditions of

your vehicle, the fuel in the fuel tank may not be used for a long time and stay in the tank, resulting in deterioration of the fuel quality. As this may affect the engine and fuel system parts, observe the following instructions:

•Run the engine by pressing the battery charge switch at least once in 3 months. Refer to “Battery charge switch” on page 7-23.

• Refuel 20 litres or more of fuel every 6 months (to make the total refueling amount in 6 months be 20 litres or more).

 If refueling of the above amount is not possi-

ble due to a high fuel level because the vehicle has not been used for a long time or for some other reason, consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorised Service Point.

Drive battery

 A sealed lithium ion high voltage battery

(drive battery) is adopted for Outlander PHEV. If the drive battery is disposed of improperly, there is a risk of severe burns and electrical shock that may result in serious injury or death and there is also a risk of environmental damage.

E00203900029

 Never attempt to use the drive battery for

any other purpose.

 It is the battery to operate the motor and

the air conditioning. In addition to the drive battery, Outlander PHEV has the auxiliary battery to operate lamps, wipers, etc.

 Compact, light-weight lithium ion battery

with high energy density is used for the drive battery.

 The drive battery has the following char-

acteristics. Please read this carefully paying attention to the following:

Characteristics

 The same as ordinary lithium-ion batter-

ies, the battery capacity of the drive battery gradually reduces with time, resulting in reduced cruising range. Depending on the usage conditions, such as frequent quick acceleration/deceleration, extremely hot weather, storing the vehicle in high ambient temperatures, etc., the rate of battery capacity drop will increase.

2-4 General information

WARNING

BK0203201EN.book 5 ページ２０１３年１１月１９日　火曜日　午前１１時５０分

 The performance may be changed due to

the outside temperature. At low temperature, in particular, the EV cruising range is short and the charging time is long, compared to operation at normal temperature.

 The battery is gradually discharged with-

out use and the battery charge is lowered.

 It is not necessary to consume the battery

completely before charging.

EV cruising range

 Even if the charge level is the same, the

EV cruising range may vary depending on driving conditions. Since driving at high speed or climbing on a hill requires higher consumption of the drive battery than usual, the EV cruising range is shortened.

 Since the air conditioning (cooling or

heating) consumes power of the drive battery, its operation results in a shorter EV

Precautions for operation

 If your vehicle is not used for a long time,

check the drive battery level display every 3 months. If the drive battery level display shows 0, charge the battery until some indication appears. Alternately, put the operation

 Mitsubishi Motors collects drive batteries.

If you scrap your vehicle, please consult a Mitsubishi Motors Authorised Service Point.

The Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System (AVAS) is device that uses sound to alert pedestrians of the presence of the vehicle. The system operates when the vehicle speed is about 35 km/h or less and the engine is not running. Refer to “Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System (AVAS)” on page 7-24.

E00204000027

E00204100028

Plug-in Hybrid EV System

 Even if the Acoustic Vehicle Alerting Sys-

tem (AVAS) sounds, pay special attention to pedestrians. Pedestrians may not notice the oncoming vehicle, which may cause an accident resulting in serious personal injury or death.

In case of a collision

E00204200029

A crash or impact significant enough to require an emergency response for conventional vehicles would also require the same response for Outlander PHEV. Also follow the instructions described below to avoid severe burns and electrical shock that may result in serious injury or death.

 If your vehicle is drivable, pull your vehi-

cle off the road to a safe, nearby location and remain on the scene. Also, if possible, do the following operations and stay out of the way of any oncoming traffic while awaiting the arrival of emergency responders.

•Apply chocks to the wheels.

•Put the select position in “P”(PARK) position.

•Apply the parking brake.

•Open the windows, doors and tailgate.

•Put the operation mode in OFF.

•Turn on the hazard warning flashers.

• Move the key away from the vehicle to prevent unintended start-up of the system by inadvertent contact with a switch or impact from the crash.

 Never touch high-voltage wiring, connec-

tors, and other high-voltage parts, such as the inverter unit and drive battery. An electric shock may occur if exposed electric wires are visible when viewed from inside or outside of your vehicle. For their locations, see “High-voltage components” on page 2-7.

 If the vehicle receives a strong impact to

the floor while driving, stop the vehicle in a safe place and check the floor.

 Never start the plug-in hybrid EV system

if you found the leak of a liquid (except water of the air conditioner) while checking the outside of the vehicle because there is possibility the fuel system has been damaged and causing of fire or exploding. In such case, immediately contact your MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point.

 Leaks or damage to the drive battery may

result in a fire. If you discover them, contact emergency services immediately. Since the fluid leak may be lithium manganite from the Lithium-ion battery, never touch any fluid leaking from the inside or outside of the vehicle. If the fluid contacts your skin or eyes, wash it off immediately with a large amount of water and receive immediate medical attention to help avoid serious injury.

 If you are unable to safely assess the vehi-

cle due to vehicle damage, do not touch the vehicle. Leave the vehicle and contact emergency services. Advise emergency responders that this is a Plug-in Hybrid vehicle.

 If a fire occurs in this vehicle, leave the

vehicle as soon as possible and contact emergency services. Do not attempt to extinguish a fire by yourself. If the fire involves a lithium-ion battery, it will require large, sustained volumes of water for extinguishment. Using a small amount of water or the incorrect fire extinguisher can result in serious injury or death from electrical shock.

 When you leave the vehicle, if possible,

open the windows, doors and tailgate to prevent accumulation of poisonous/combustible gasses. This will also assist in the rescue and fire fighting process.

 As with any vehicle fire, the byproducts of

combustion can be toxic. Do not inhale smoke, vapors, or gas from the vehicle. Move to a safe distance upwind and uphill from the vehicle fire and out of the way of any oncoming traffic while awaiting the arrival of emergency responders.

 If you detect leaking fluids, sparks, smoke,

flames, gurgling, popping or hissing noises originating from the high voltage battery compartment, contact emergency services immediately. This may result in a fire.

 Physical damage to the vehicle or high

voltage battery may result in immediate or delayed release of toxic and/or flammable gases and fire.

 If your vehicle needs to be towed, trans-

port the vehicle on a flatbed truck or tow the vehicle with all wheels off the ground. If the any wheels are on the ground when towing, this may cause damage to the electric motors. This may also cause a fire, if wiring in the electric motor unit room becomes damaged. Refer to “Towing” on page 9-19.

 Do not attempt to repair a damaged Plug-

in Hybrid vehicle by yourself. Please contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorised Service Point for service.

Filling the fuel tank

 Poor quality petrol can cause problems such

as hard starting, stalling, engine noise and hesitation. If your experience these problems, try another brand and/or grade of petrol. If the check engine warning lamp flashes, have the system checked as soon as possible at a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorised Service Point.

Filling the fuel tank

E00200203572

 When handling fuel, comply with the

safety regulations displayed by garages and filling stations.

 Gasoline is highly flammable and explo-

sive. You could be burned or seriously injured when handling it. When refueling your vehicle, always put the operation mode of the power switch in OFF and keep away from flames, sparks, and smoking materials. Always handle fuel in wellventilated outdoor areas.

 Before removing the fuel cap, be sure to

get rid of your body’s static electricity by touching a metal part of the car or fuel pump. Any static electricity on your body could create a spark that ignites fuel vapor.

 Perform the whole refueling process

(opening the fuel tank filler door, removing the fuel cap, etc.) by yourself. Do not let any other person come near the fuel tank filler. If you allowed a person to help you and that person was carrying static electricity, fuel vapor could be ignited.

 Do not perform charging and refueling at

the same time. If you charged with static electricity, fuel vapor could be ignited by the discharge spark.

 Do not move away from the fuel tank filler

until refueling is finished. If you moved away and did something else (for example, sitting on a seat) part-way through the refueling process, you could pick up a fresh charge of static electricity.

 Be careful not to inhale fuel vapor. Fuel

contains toxic substances.

 Keep the doors and windows closed while

refueling the vehicle. If they were open, fuel vapor could get into the cabin.

 If the tank cap must be replaced, use only

a MITSUBIHI MOTORS original part.

 Depending on the operating conditions of

•Run the engine by pressing the battery charge switch at least once in 3 months. Refer to “Battery charge switch” on page 7-23.

• Refuel 20 litres or more of fuel every 6 months (to make the total refueling amount in 6 months be 20 litres or more).

 If refueling of the above amount is not possi-

ble due to a high fuel level because the vehicle has not been used for a long time or for some other reason, consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorised Service Point.

Open the fuel tank filler door with the release lever located the side of the driver’s seat.

3. Open the fuel tank filler tube by slowly turning the cap anticlockwise.

1- Remove 2- Close

 Since the fuel system may be under pressure,

remove the fuel tank filler tube cap slowly. This relieves any pressure or vacuum that might have built up in the fuel tank. If you hear a hissing sound, wait until it stops before removing the cap. Otherwise, fuel may spray out, injuring you or others.

 While filling with fuel, hang the fuel cap on

the hook (A) located on the inside of the fuel tank filler door.

4. Insert the gun in the tank port as far as it goes.

 Do not tilt the gun.

5. When the gun stops automatically, do not fill with fuel any more.

6. To close, turn the fuel cap slowly clockwise until you hear clicking sounds, then gently push the fuel tank filler door closed.

Important points!

Due to large number of accessory and replacement parts of different manufactures available in the market, it is not possible, not only for MITSUBISHI MOTORS, but also a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorised Service Point, to check whether the attachment or installation of such parts affects the overall safety of your MITSUBISHI-vehicle.

Even when such parts are officially authorised, for example by a “general operators permit” (an appraisal for the part) or through the execution of the part in an officially approved manner of construction, or when a single operation permit following the attachment or installation of such parts, it cannot be deduced from that alone, that the driving safety of your vehicles has not been affected.

Consider also that there basically exists no liability on the part of the appraiser or the official. Maximum safety can only be ensured with parts recommended, sold and fitted or installed by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS

authorised Service Point (MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENUINE replacement parts and MITSUBISHI MOTORS accessories). The same also pertains to modifications of MITSUBISHI vehicles with respect to the production specifications. For safety reasons, do not attempt any modifications other than those that follow the recommendations of a MITSUBISHI MOTORS authorised Service Point.

Modification/alterations to the electrical or fuel systems

MITSUBISHI MOTORS CORPORATION has always manufactured safe, high quality vehicles. In order to maintain this safety and quality, it is important that any accessory that is to be fitted, or any modifications carried out which involve the electrical or fuel systems, should be carried out in accordance with MITSUBISHI guidelines.

 If the wires interfere with the vehicle body or

improper installation methods are used (protective fuses not included, etc.), electronic devices may be adversely affected, resulting in a fire or other accident.

Battery

E08300101037

There are two types of batteries installed in your vehicle: a drive battery for operating the motor (electric motor unit) and air conditioning as well as an auxiliary battery for starting the Plug-in Hybrid EV system and operating the lamps, wipers, etc. This chapter explains charging of the drive battery.

 The auxiliary battery is automatically

charged while the ready indicator is illuminated or during charge for the drive battery. Refer to “Ready indicator” on page 6-37.

 If the auxiliary battery is flat, the Plug-in

Hybrid EV system cannot be started. Refer to “Emergency starting” on page 9-2.

Basic knowledge for charging

E08300201070

Normal charging is performed through the on board charger using rated AC 240 V outlet as the power source

 To redu ce th e ri sk o f el ec tr ic sh oc k o r fi re

due to electric leak, always use an outlet protected by a residual current detector, rated for amperage equal to or greater than the value specified by MITSUBISHI MOTORS, and that is connected to a dedicated branch circuit. If the circuit is shared, and another electrical device is being used at the same time the vehicle is charging, the breaker may trip and the circuit may cause adverse interference on MCB (Moulded Circuit Board) and household electrical appliances such as TVs and audio systems.

 It is possible to charge even in rain or

snow. However, be sure to pay attention to the following:
