Rear-View Camera; Roof Carrier Precaution - Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution Owner's Manual

Roof carrier precaution

CAUTION
l Make sure that the weight of the luggage
does not exceed the allowable roof load.
If the allowable roof load is exceeded, this
may cause damage to the vehicle.
The roof load is the total allowable load
on the roof (the weight of the roof carrier
plus the weight of luggage placed on the
roof carrier).
For specific figures, please refer to "Max-
imum roof load" on page 9-06.
l When luggage is loaded onto the vehicle,
please make sure to drive slowly and
avoid excessive manoeuvres such as sud-
den braking or quick turning.
In addition, place the luggage on the car-
rier so that its weight is distributed even-
ly with the heaviest items on the bottom.
Do not load items that are wider than the
roof carrier.
The additional weight on the roof could
raise the vehicle's centre of gravity and af-
fect vehicle handling characteristics.
As a result, driving errors or emergency
manoeuvres could lead to a loss of control
and result in an accident.
l Before driving and after travelling a
short distance, always check the load to
make sure it is securely fastened to the
roof carrier.
Check periodically during your travel
that the load remains secure.
NOTE
l
To prevent wind noise or reduction in fuel
economy, remove the roof carrier when not
in use.
l Before using an automatic car wash, remove
the roof carrier.
l Be sure that adequate clearance is main-
tained for raising the sunroof (if so equip-
ped) when installing a roof carrier.

Starting and driving

Rear-view camera*

E00618400361
The rear-view camera is a system that shows the
view behind the vehicle on a screen of the
MITSUBISHI Multi Communication
(MMCS) or the inside rear-view mirror.
CAUTION
l The rear-view camera is an assistance sys-
tem that enables the driver to check for
obstacles behind the vehicle. Its range of
view is limited, so you should not overly
depend on it. Please drive just as careful-
ly as you would if the vehicle did not have
the rear-view camera.
l Be sure to visually confirm safety around
the vehicle with your own eyes. Do not de-
pend entirely on the rear-view camera.
Range of view of rear-view camera
The range of view of the rear-view camera is limi-
ted to the area shown in the illustrations. It cannot
show both sides and the lower part of the rear bump-
er, etc.
When reversing, be sure to visually confirm safety
around the vehicle.
