If the CVT does not shift while driving, or your vehicle does not pick up enough speed when starting on an uphill slope, there may be something unusual happening in the transmis-sion, causing a safety device to activate. Have your vehicle checked at an authorized Mit- subishi Motors dealer or a repair facility ofyour choice as soon as possible. 1. If your vehicle has difficulty moving uphill, shift the selector lever into “L” (LOW) position (except for vehicles withsport mode) or 2nd shift range of the sports mode. This method might not work dependingon the type of transmission malfunction.
2. Once the vehicle is moving on a level road, move the selector lever back to “D” (DRIVE) position.
N00539700046
The Twin Clutch SST is a transmission that,through integrated control of the engine and transmission, is able to achieve both thesmooth shifting of an automatic transaxle and the acceleration and fuel economy close to a manual transaxle. In addition, the controlmode can be selected from two types to suit the driving conditions. Together with manual shifting, the transmis-sion is capable of responding to a variety of driving circumstances. Twin Clutch SST control mode
 P.5-75
Manual shift
 P.5-76
N00539800047
As an additional safety precaution, models equipped with a Twin Clutch SST have ashift-lock device that holds the gearshift lever in the “P” (PARK) position. To move the gearshift lever from the “P” (PARK) positionto another position, follow the steps below. 1. Press and hold the brake pedal down. 2. Move the gearshift lever to the desired position.
The Twin Clutch SST has 6 forward gears and 1 reverse gear. The individual gears are selected automati-cally, depending on the position of the gear- shift lever, the speed of the vehicle and the position of the accelerator pedal.The gearshift lever (A) has 2 gates; the main shift gate (B) and the manual shift gate (C).
NOTE
 On a slope, be sure to apply the parking brake before moving the selector lever to the “P” (PARK) position. If you move the selec- tor lever to the “P” (PARK) position before applying the parking brake, it may be diffi-cult to disengage the selector lever from the “P” (PARK) position when next you drive the vehicle, requiring application of a strongforce to the selector lever to move from the “P” (PARK) position.
When the CVT makes no speed change

NOTE
 When the warning display or the warning display appears on the information screen in the multi-information display, therecould be a malfunction in the CVT. Refer to “Continuously variable transmission (CVT): Warning display” on page 5-65.

This position locks the transmission to pre- vent the vehicle from moving. The engine canbe started from the “PARK” position.
Move the lever to this position only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop. At this position, the transmission is disen- gaged. It is the same as the neutral position ona manual transaxle and should be used when the vehicle is not moving for an extended length of time during driving, such as in atraffic jam.
This position is used for most city and high- way driving. Engine shifting and braking are done automatically as needed, depending on road conditions.
CAUTION When warning display is shown, your vehicle may not accelerate normally, even if the accelerator pedal is depressed. Use cau-tion when necessary to drive the vehicle.
Gearshift lever positions (Main shift gate)

“P” PARK

“R” REVERSE

CAUTION Never shift into the “P” (PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position while
the vehicle is in
motion. If the lever is shifted into the “P” (PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in motion, the transmissionmay be damaged.
“N” NEUTRAL

WA R N I N G Never move the gearshift lever to the “N” (NEUTRAL) position while driving since you could accidentally slip it into the “P”(PARK) or “R”(REVERSE) position and the engine speed could rise, damaging the transmission.
 To prevent the vehicle from rolling when stopped on a slope, the engine should be started in the “P” (PARK) position. Although the engine can be started when the vehicle is in the “N” (NEUTRAL) posi-tion, for safety reasons, do not start the engine in the “N” (NEUTRAL) position. Always keep your foot on the brake pedal when the vehicle is in “N” (NEUTRAL) position, or when shifting into or out of“N” (NEUTRAL) position, to prevent roll- ing.
“D” DRIVE

CAUTION Never shift into the “D” (DRIVE) position from the “R” (REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in motion. If the lever is shifted into the “D” (DRIVE) from the “R” (REVERSE) position while thevehicle is in motion, the transmission may be damaged.WA R N I N G

If there is a problem in the Twin Clutch SST or engine electronic control module, the fol- lowing may occur.  Twin Clutch SST does not shift.  Vehicle cannot move.  Twin Clutch SST acceleration is slow.  Vehicle does not creep.  “Shift shock” is large.  Shifting occurs at higher engine speed.  Response is slow.
If any of these occurs, perform the following procedure. The temperature of Twin Clutch SST fluid is high. Refer to “Warning display” on page 5-73 and follow the appropriate measures. There could be a malfunction in the engine electronic control module.
CAUTION Do not rev the engine unnecessarily while the vehicle is stationary. Unexpected acceler- ation may occur if the gearshift lever is in aposition other than “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL). Do not keep the vehicle in a stopped position on an uphill slope by depressing the acceler- ator pedal instead of the brake pedal.The transmission may be damaged and an accident may occur due to the following con- ditions.• The Twin Clutch SST fluid temperaturewill rise and can cause transmission dam- age.
• If the vehicle is kept in a stopped positionby depressing the accelerator pedal instead of the brake pedal, the vehicle will vibrate or the warning display will appear on the information screen in the multi-infor- mation display to alert the driver that the Twin Clutch SST fluid temperature hasrisen. After that, if the Twin Clutch SST fluid temperature rises even higher, the transmis-sion protection control will operate. If this occurs, the vehicle may suddenly reverse as if the gearshift lever was in the “N” (NEUTRAL) position and cause an accident. If the warning display appears or the transmission protection control operates, refer to “When warning display is showing” on page 5-73.
