Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV (2019 year). Instruction — part 19

The FCM brake assist function operates at
the following vehicle speed:

l

Against a vehicle: Approximately
15 km/h (9 mph) to 80 km/h (50 mph).

l

Against a pedestrian: Approximately
15 km/h (9 mph) to 65 km/h (40 mph).

CAUTION

l

The brake assist function may not be trig-
gered when the brake pedal is operated in
certain ways.
Do not overly rely on the system; if your ve-
hicle is in danger of collision, take all neces-
sary collision-evading actions, such as de-
pressing the brake pedal strongly regardless
of whether the system is activated or not.

FCM braking function

E00635501380

If the system judges that there is a high risk
of your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a
pedestrian in front, the system applies the
brakes moderately to encourage you to apply
the brakes.
If the system judges that a collision is un-
avoidable, it initiates emergency braking con-
trol to mitigate collision-caused damages or,
if the situation permits, to avoid a collision.
When the emergency braking control is trig-
gered, you are warned of the hazard with vis-
ual and audible alarms like with the forward
collision warning function.

Once the emergency braking has worked, you
are alerted to this by a message on the infor-
mation screen of the multi-information dis-
play.

The FCM braking function operates at the
following vehicle speed:

l

Against a vehicle: Approximately
5 km/h (3 mph) to 80 km/h (50 mph).

l

Against a pedestrian: Approximately
5 km/h (3 mph) to 65 km/h (40 mph).

CAUTION

l

Do not use the FCM as a normal braking.

l

After your vehicle has stopped following the
activation of the FCM, automatic braking is
released. As the vehicle will then start creep-
ing, be sure to depress the brake pedal to
hold the vehicle stationary.

CAUTION

l

When applying the brake during the auto-
matic braking condition the pedal will feel
firm.
This is not abnormal.
You can apply more pressure to the pedal to
assist in braking.

l

In the following situations, the system pro-
vides neither control nor alarming.

When a vehicle or a pedestrian suddenly
cuts in front of your vehicle.

When the distance from a vehicle or a pe-
destrian in front is extremely short.

To an oncoming vehicle.

When the select position is in the “P”
(PARK) or the “R” (REVERSE) position.

When the FCM has detected a problem in
the system.

l

If the ASC is deactivated, the FCM braking
function will not operate. Refer to “Active
Stability Control (ASC)” on page 7-43.

l

The FCM may or may not detect a motorcy-
cle, bicycle or wall depending on the situa-
tion. The FCM is not designed to detect
these objects.

l

The forward collision warning function
and/or the FCM braking function may not
activate in the following situations.

When a vehicle suddenly appear just in
front of your vehicle.

When a vehicle cuts in front of your vehi-
cle very closely.

When the vehicle in front is offset to the
left or right.

Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation System (UMS)*

E00643400280

The Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation System (UMS) operates to prevent sudden starts and mitigate collision-caused damages by suppress-
ing the motor output for up to approximately 5 seconds when the system judges that the system is detected the vehicle or obstacles within ap-
proximately 4 m in front and behind your vehicle and judges that accelerator pedal was depressed promptly and too strongly such as misopera-
tion of it. This system operates when the vehicle is at stop or is moving forward or backward at less than approximately 10 km/h.
When the UMS operates, the warning display appears on the information screen of the multi information display, and the buzzer sounds intermit-
tently.
The UMS ON/OFF is switched in conjunction with the ON/OFF state of the Forward Collision Mitigation (FCM). (Vehicles equipped with
FCM)
