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 is 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 stronger. Shift the selector lever into “B” (BRAKE) position according to the driving condition.

• When you depress the brake pedal, the regenerative braking force may be increased.

• 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

• 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.

•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	2
long time.

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

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

Refueling (gasoline)

E00203800031

CAUTION

• If the warning display appears, refuel immediately.

If the vehicle 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 is not 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.

In case of a collision

WARNING

2Also, 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, connectors, 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 3-12.

• If the vehicle receives a strong impact to the floor while driving, stop the vehicle in a safe place and check the floor.

WARNING

• Never start the plug-in hybrid EV system if you found a 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 vehicle 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.

WARNING

• 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.
