N00401601277
Your vehicle has seat belts and other safety features that help protect you and your pas-sengers in an accident. Seat belts are the most important safety device. When worn properly, seat belts canreduce the chance of serious injury or death in various types of crashes. For added protec- tion during a severe frontal collision, yourvehicle has a Supplemental Restraint System(SRS) with airbags for the driver and passen- gers. The seats, head restraints, and door locks also are safety equipment, which mustbe used correctly. Always check the following before you drive: That everyone in your vehicle is properly wearing their seat belt.  That infants and small children are prop- erly secured in an appropriate child restraint system in the rear seat.  That all doors are fully closed and locked.  That seatbacks are upright, with head restraints properly adjusted.
Safety equipment cannot prevent injury or death in all motor vehicle accidents. How-ever, you can help reduce the risk of injury or death, by following the instructions in this manual.

Position the driver’s seat
as far back as possi-
ble while maintaining a position that still enables you to fully apply the pedals, easily control the steering wheel and safely operatethe vehicle.
Seats and restraint systems
WA R N I N G Do not place objects under the seats. The objects could prevent the seat from lock- ing securely, which could lead to an acci- dent. The objects ma
y also cause damage
to the seat or other parts.
Front seats
WA R N I N G Do not attempt to adjust the seat while driving. This can cause loss of vehicle con- trol and result in an accident.Manual seat adjustment Power seat adjustment
 After adjusting the seat, make sure that it is securely locked into position. To reduce the risk to the driver of serious injury or death during deployment of thedriver’s airbag, always properly wear the seat belt and adjust th
e driver’s seat as far
back as possible while maintaining a posi-tion that still enables
you to fully apply the
pedals, easily control the steering wheel, and safely operate the vehicle. To reduce the risk to the front passenger of serious injury or death during deploy-ment of the passenger’s airbag, always properly wear the seat belt and adjust the front passenger’s seat as far back as possi-ble. Always place children 12 years old and under in the rear seat and use appropriate child restraint systems.CAUTION Make sure that the seat is adjusted by an adult. If it is adjusted by a child, an unex-pected accident might occur. Do not place a cushion or the like between your back and the seatback while driving. The effectiveness of the head restraints willbe reduced in the event of an accident. When sliding the seats, be careful not to catch your hand or leg.WA R N I N G

3. If the engine still will not start, the engine could be flooded with too much gasoline. While depressing the brake pedal, push the accelerator pedal all the way downand hold it there, then press the engine switch to crank the engine. If the engine does not start after 5 to 6 seconds, pushthe engine switch to stop cranking the engine, and release the accelerator pedal. Put the operation mode in OFF. Wait afew seconds, and then press the engineswitch to crank the engine again while depressing the brake pedal, but do not push the accelerator pedal. If the enginefails to start, repeat these procedures. If the engine still will not start, contact your local Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repairfacility of your choice for assistance.
Startability of the engine with an ambient temperature of -22 °F (-30 °C) or lower When the ambient temperature is -22 °F (-30°C) or lower, it may not be possible to start from a standstill even with the selector lever in the “D” (DRIVE) or “R” (REVERSE)position. This phenomenon occurs because the trans- axle has not warmed up sufficiently; it doesnot indicate a problem. If this occurs, place the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) position and let the engine idle for at least 10 minutes.
The transaxle will warm up, and you will be able to start normally. Do not leave the vehicle during warm-up operation.

The following operation can be used to start the engine or change the operation mode. 1. Depress the brake pe
dal firmly with your
right foot. 2. While depressing the brake pedal, touch the portion of the F.A.S.T.-key shown inthe illustration to the engine switch.
Stopping the engine

WA R N I N G Do not operate the engine switch while driving except in an emergency. If the engine is stopped while driving, the brake servomechanism will cease to function andbraking efficiency will deteriorate. Also, the power steering system will not func- tion and it will require greater manualeffort to operate the steering. This could result in a serious accident.NOTE
 If you have to bring the engine to an emer- gency stop while driving, press and hold the engine switch for 3 seco
nds or more, or press
it quickly three times or more. The enginewill stop and the operation mode will go to ACC.
 Do not stop the engine with the selector lever in any position other than the “P” (PARK) position. If the engine is stopped with the selector lever in any position other than the “P” (PARK) position, the operation modewill go to ACC rather than OFF. Put the operation mode in OFF after placing the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) posi-tion.

N00596700027
The Active Yaw Control (AYC) is a system with a yaw control function, that controls the left-right driving/braking force using the brakes. The yaw control function is a function that enhances vehicle cornering performance andvehicle stability with management of vehicle turning power (yaw moment) by controlling the drive power difference of the left andright wheels and the braking force when the vehicle does not turn in response to steering input, such as when the steering wheel isturned quickly or when driving on slippery road.
The AYC operation status can be displayed on the information screen in the multi-infor- mation display. To display the status, press the multi-informa-tion display switch to change the information screen. Refer to “Information screen (With the igni-tion switch or the operation mode in ON)” on page 5-148. Refer to “S-AWC operation display” on page 5-72. The AYC operation status is displayed.
The amount of the yaw moment is displayed as a bar graph.

The power steering system operates while the engine is running. It helps reduce the effortneeded to turn the steering wheel. The power steering system has mechanical steering capability in case the power assist islost. If the power assist is lost for some rea- son, you will still be able to steer your vehi- cle, but you will notice it takes much moreeffort to steer. If this happens, have your vehi-cle inspected at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.
Warning light Warning display
If there is a malfunction in the system, the warning light will come on and the warning display will appear on the information screen in the multi-information display.Under normal conditions, the warning light comes on when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the operation mode isput in ON, and goes off after the engine has started.

WA R N I N G Do not stop the engine while the vehicle is moving. Stopping the engine would make the steering wheel extremely hard to turn,possibly resulting in an accident.
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 powersteering 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 headlights on, theheadlights may become dim. This behavior is not abnormal. The headlights will return to their original brightness after a short while.

When parking on a hill, set the parking brake, and turn the front wheels toward the curb on adownhill, or away from the curb on an uphill. If necessary, apply chocks to the wheels. Be sure that the parking brake is firmly setwhen parked and that the selector lever is inthe “P” (PARK) position. When parking on a hill, it is important to set the parking brake before moving the selectorlever to the “P” (PARK) position. This pre- vents loading the parking brake against the transaxle. When this happens, it is difficult tomove the selector lever out of the “P” (PARK) position. Never leave the engi
ne running while you
take a short nap or rest. Also, never leave theengine running in a closed or poorly venti- lated place.
Your front bumper can be damaged if you scrape it over curbs or parking stop blocks. Be careful when traveling up or down steep slopes where your bumper can scrape theroad. Always carry the key and lock all doors and the liftgate when leaving the vehicle unat- tended. Always try to park your vehicle in a well litarea.
More effort could be required to turn the steering wheel. Refer to “Electric power steering system (EPS)” on page 5-84.

It is very important to know how much weight your vehicle can carry. This weight is called the vehicle capacity weight andincludes the weight of all occupants, cargo (including the roof load), non-factory- installed options, and the tongue weight ofthe trailer, if any, being towed. The tire and loading information placard located on the driver’s door sill of your vehicle will showhow much weight it may properly carry. It is important to familiarize yourself with the following terms before loading your vehicle:
Parking Parking on a hill Parking with the engine run- ning
WA R N I N G Leaving the engine running risks injury or death from accidentally moving the selec- tor lever or the accumulation of toxic exhaust fumes in the passenger compart- ment.
