MITSUBISHI L200 2019 Owner's Manual (in English)

Your driving ability can be seriously im-
paired even with blood alcohol levels far be- low the legal minimum. If you have beendrinking, don’t drive. Ride with a designated
non-drinking driver, call a cab or a friend, or
use public transportation. Drinking coffee or taking a cold shower will not make you so-
ber.
Similarly, prescription and nonprescription
drugs affect your alertness, perception and re- action time. Consult with your doctor or
pharmacist before driving while under the in- fluence of any of these medications.:ARN,NGz NEVER DRINK AND DRIVE.
Your perceptions are less accurate, your
reflexes are slower and your judgment is impaired.Safe driving techniques
Driving safety and protection against injury
cannot be fully ensured. However, we recom- mend that you pay extra attention to the fol-
lowing:
Seat belts
Before starting the vehicle, make sure that you and your passengers have fastened your
seat belts.
Floor mats:ARN,NGz Keep floor mats clear of the pedals by
correctly laying floor mats that are suita-
ble for the vehicle.
To prevent the floor mats from slipping out of position, securely retain them using the hook etc.
Note that laying a floor mat over a pedal
or laying one floor mat on top of another can obstruct pedal operation and lead to a
serious accident.
Carrying children in the vehi-
cle
z Never leave your vehicle unattended
with the key and children inside the ve-hicle. Children may play with the driv-
ing controls and this could lead to an ac- cident.
z Make sure that infants and small chil-
dren are properly restrained in accord-
ance with the laws and regulations, and
for maximum protection in case of an accident.
z Prevent children from playing in the lug-
gage compartment. It is quite dangerous
to allow them to play there while the ve- hicle is moving.
Loading luggage
When loading luggage, be careful not to load above the height of seats. This is dangerous
not only because rearward vision will be ob- structed, but also the luggage may be projec-ted into the passenger compartment underhard braking.

as sandy, muddy, and other difficult surfaces. On vehicles with A/T, do not exceed speeds of approximately 70 km/h in “4L” (Easy Select 4WD), “4LLc”
(Super Select 4WD II) range.

Parking brake
To park the vehicle, first bring it to a com- plete stop, fully apply the parking brake suffi-
ciently to hold the vehicle.
Parking brake
6-052.7((Starting and driving6

To apply
1-Firmly depress and hold the brake pedal,
then pull the lever up without pushing
the button at the end of hand grip.
CAUT,ONz When you intend to apply the parking brake,
firmly press the brake pedal to bring the ve-hicle to a complete stop before pulling theparking brake lever.
Pulling the parking brake lever with the ve- hicle moving could make the rear wheels
lock up, thereby making the vehicle unsta- ble. It could also make the parking brake
malfunction.NOTEz Apply sufficient force to the parking brake
lever to hold the vehicle stationary after the foot brake is released.NOTEz If the parking brake does not hold the vehi-
cle stationary after the foot brake is released,
have your vehicle checked immediately.
To release
1- Firmly depress and hold the brake pedal,
then pull the lever up slightly.
2- Push the button at the end of hand grip.
3- Lower the lever fully.
CAUT,ONz Before driving, be sure that the parking
brake is fully released and brake warning
lamp is off.
If a vehicle is driven without releasing the
parking brake, the brake will be overheated, resulting in ineffective braking and possible
brake failure.CAUT,ONz If the brake warning lamp does not extin-
guish when the parking brake is fully re- leased, the brake system may be abnormal.
Have your vehicle checked immediately.
For details, refer to “Brake warning lamp” on page 5-13.NOTEz To prevent the parking brake from being re-
leased unintentionally, the lever must be
pulled up slightly before it can be pushed down. Simply pressing the button does not
enable the lever to be pushed down.Parking
To park the vehicle, fully engage the parking
brake, and then move the gearshift lever to 1 st
or “R” (Reverse) position for vehicles equip- ped with M/T, or set the selector lever to “P”
(PARK) position for vehicles equipped with
A/T.

Parking on a downhill slope
Turn the front wheels towards the kerb andmove the vehicle forward until the kerb sidewheel gently touches the kerb.
On vehicles equipped with M/T, apply the
parking brake and place the gearshift lever into the “R” (Reverse) position.
On vehicles equipped with A/T, apply the
parking brake and place the selector lever in-
to the “P” (PARK) position.

NOTEz If your vehicle is equipped with
A/T, be sure
to apply the parking brake before moving se- lector lever to the “P” (PARK) position. If you move selector lever to the “P” (PARK)
position before applying the parking brake, it may be difficult to disengage selector lever
from the “P” (PARK) position when next you drive the vehicle, requiring applicationof a strong force the selector lever to move
from the “P” (PARK) position.

For vehicles equipped with the mirror re-tractor switch
Retracting and extending the mirrors using the mirror retrac-
tor switch
With the ignition switch or the operation
mode in ON or ACC, push the mirror retrac-
tor switch to retract the mirrors.
Push it again to extend the mirrors to their
original positions.
After turning the ignition switch to the
“LOCK” position or putting the operation
mode in OFF, it is possible to retract and ex-
tend the mirrors using the mirror retractor switch for about 30 seconds.
CAUT,ONz It is possible to retract and extend the mir-
rors by hand. After retracting a mirror using
the mirror retractor switch, however, you
should extend it by using the switch again, not by hand. If you extended the mirror by
hand after retracting it using the switch, it
would not properly lock in position. As a re- sult, it could move because of the wind or
vibration while you are driving, taking away your rearward visibility.NOTEz Be careful not to get your hands trapped
while a mirror is moving.
z If you move a mirror by hand or it moves af-
ter hitting a person or object, you may not be
able to return it to its original position using the mirror retractor switch. If this happens,
push the mirror retractor switch to place the mirror in its retracted position and then push
the switch again to return the mirror to its original position.
z When freezing has occurred and mirrors fail
to operate as intended, please refrain from repeated pushing of the retractor switch as
this action can result in burn-out of the mir-
ror motor circuits.Retracting and extending the
