Mitsubishi Outlander Head-Up Display example projected onto the windshield

  • XXXXX represents the name of the radio station currently selected by the audio system.

WARNING

  • Failure to adjust the brightness and position of the projected image correctly may interfere with the driver's view through the windshield. Reduced forward visibility can contribute to an accident resulting in severe injury or death.
  • Do not concentrate on the Head-Up Display [HUD] for extended periods while driving. Excessive attention to the display may prevent you from noticing other vehicles, pedestrians, or objects on the road and could lead to an accident resulting in severe injury or death.
  • Do not place liquids on or near the HUD opening, and do not spray water or spill beverages into the opening or surrounding area.

    If switches, wiring, or other electrical components become wet, they may malfunction or create a risk of vehicle fire.

    If a beverage or other liquid is accidentally spilled near the HUD, wipe up as much of the liquid as possible and promptly consult an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.

The Head-Up Display [HUD] projects selected vehicle information onto the windshield directly in front of the driver. Its position allows important driving information to be viewed without requiring the driver to look down at the instrument panel.

Depending on vehicle equipment and the functions currently in use, the Mitsubishi Outlander HUD can display one or more of the following types of information:

  • Vehicle speed
  • Navigation
  • Driving Assist (if so equipped)
  • Traffic Sign (if so equipped)
  • Audio
  • TEL/SMS

NOTE

  • Do not touch any internal parts of the projector.

    Touching internal projector components may cause the equipment to malfunction.

  • To avoid scratching the projector glass, do not place sharp objects on or near the projector opening.
  • Do not place objects on the instrument panel where they could obstruct or interfere with the projected HUD image.
  • If polarized sunglasses are worn, the Head-Up Display image may become difficult to see.
  • Visibility of the projected image may vary depending on weather and environmental conditions, including rain, snow, and strong sunlight.
