The active stability control (ASC) takes over-
all control of the anti-lock brake system
(ABS), traction control function and stability
control function to help maintain the vehi-
cle’s control and traction. Please read this
section in conjunction with the page on the
ABS, traction control function and stability
control function.

NOTE
 During repeated full-lock turning of the
steering wheel (for example, while you are
manoeuvring the vehicle into a parking
space), a protection function may be acti-
vated to prevent overheating of the power
steering system. This function will make the
steering wheel gradually harder to turn. In
this event, limit your turning of the steering
wheel for a while. When the system has
cooled down, the steering effort will return
to normal.
 If you turn the steering wheel while the vehi-
cle is stationary with the headlamps on, the
headlamps may become dim. This behaviour
is not abnormal. The headlamps will return
to their original brightness after a short
while.

CAUTION
 If the warning lamp comes on and the warn-
ing display appears while the Hybrid EV
System is operating, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorised MITSUBISHI
MOTORS dealer as soon as possible.
It may become harder to turn the steering
wheel.

(ASC)
CAUTION
 Do not over-rely on the ASC. Even the ASC
cannot prevent the natural laws of physics
from acting on the vehicle.
This system, like any other system, has lim-
its and cannot help you to maintain traction
and control of the vehicle in all circum-
stances. Reckless driving can lead to acci-
dents. It is the driver’s responsibility to drive
carefully. This means into account the traffic,
road and environmental conditions.
 Be sure to use the same specified type and
size of tyre on all 4 wheels. Otherwise, the
ASC may not work properly.
 Do not install any aftermarket limited slip
differential (LSD) on your vehicle. The ASC
may stop functioning properly.
NOTE
 An operation noise may be emitted from the
engine compartment in the following situa-
tions. The sound is associated with checking
the operations of the ASC. At this time, you
may feel a shock from the brake pedal if you
depress it. These do not indicate a malfunc-
tion.
• When the operation mode of the power
switch is put in ON.
• When the vehicle is driven for a while after
the Hybrid EV System is turned on.
