Mitsubishi Outlander: Emergency stop signal system
This is a device that reduces the possibility of rear end collisions by the rapid and automatic blinking of the hazard warning lamps to alert vehicles approaching from behind during sudden braking.
When the emergency stop signal system operates, the hazard warning indication lamp in the instrument cluster blinks rapidly at the same time.
CAUTION
• If the ABS warning or ASC warning is displayed, the emergency stop signal system may not operate.
Refer to “ABS warning lamp/display”.
Refer to “ASC warning display”.
