Work Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Always perform the side radar alignment after performing the following work.
- After removing and installing or replacing the side radar.
- After removing and installing, replacing or repainting the rear bumper.
Side radar alignment conditions are following;
- The vehicle speed is 50 km/h (31 MPH) or higher.
- The objects which reflect the wave of radar is located 8 m or more away from the vehicle.
- The steering wheel is straight.

NOTE:

The side radar alignment process is reset (back to 0%) when key switch is OFF before completing.
The side radar alignment process stops when the vehicle speed is 0 km/h (vehicle parked) and restarts when the alignment conditions are satisfied.
Timeout occurs, if the side radar alignment conditions are not satisfied for 15 minutes after the side radar alignment is started.
The side radar irradiates radar and performs the alignment by receiving its reflected wave for certain fixed time.
Because of not receiving the reflected wave, the side radar alignment may stop making progress under the following environment.
- When driving on a road with high snow banks on both sides.
- When driving on a road that has no objects to reflect the radar waves, such as a coastline road.
- When driving on the road that sits above the surrounding level surface, such as a road on top of a levee or on top of an earthen dam.
