System check screen
Driving range display
NOTE
 The driving range is determined based on the fuel consumption data. This may vary depending on the driving conditions and hab- its. Treat the distance displayed as just arough guideline.  When you refuel, the driving range display is updated. However, if you only add a small amount of fuel, the correct value will not be displayed.Fill to a full tank whenever possible.  When your vehicle is stopped on an extremely steep hill, the driving range value may, change. This is due to the movement of fuel in the tank and does not indicate anybreakdown.
 The display setting can be changed to the preferred units (miles or km). Refer to “Changing the function settings” on page 5-152.
Average fuel consumption dis- play
NOTE
 The average fuel consumption display can be reset separately in both auto reset mode and manual reset mode.  “---” is displayed when the average fuel con- sumption cannot be measured.  The initial (default) setting is “Auto reset mode”.NOTE

N00520501856
This indicator is a part of the onboard diag- nostic (OBD) system which monitors the emissions, engine contro
l system or continu-
ously variable transmission (CVT) control system. If a problem is detected in one of these systems, this indicator illuminates orflashes. When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the operation mode is put in ON, this indicator normally comes onand goes off after the engine has started. This indicator will come on if the fuel tank filler cap is not properly tightened. If this
indicator comes on and stays on after refuel- ing, stop the engine an
d check that the cap is
properly tightened. (Turn the cap clockwise until you hear clicking sounds.)If this indicator does not go off after several seconds or lights up while driving, have the system checked as soon as possible at anauthorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.
CAUTION When the warning light remains on or does not come on, there is the possibility that the parking brake cannot be operated or released. Immediately contact the nearest authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. Whenthe warning light comes on during driving, immediately stop the vehicle in a safe place, and contact an authorized Mitsubishi Motorsdealer. If you inevitably have to park, park the vehicle on level and stable ground, shift the selector lever in “P” (PARK) positionand place chocks or blocks.
Engine malfunction indicator (“SERVICE ENGINE SOON” or “Check engine light”)
CAUTION Driving for a long time with the engine mal- function indicator on may cause more dam- age to the emission control system. This could also affect fuel economy and drivabil-ity. If this indicator does not come on when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” posi- tion or the operation mode is put in ON, have the system checked at an authorizedMitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.
 If the engine malfunction indicator comes on while the engine is running, avoid driving at high speeds. During vehicle operation with the indicator on, the vehicle may not accelerate when youdepress the accelerator pedal. When the vehicle is stationary with the indi- cator on, you must depress the brake pedalmore firmly than usual since the engine idling speed is higher than usual and a vehi- cle with continuously variable transmission(CVT) has a stronger tendency to creep for- ward.NOTE
 Do not disconnect the battery cable when the engine malfunction indicator (“SERVICEENGINE SOON” or “Check engine light”) is on. The engine electronic control module storescritical OBD information (especially exhaust emission data), which may be lost if the bat- tery cable is disconnected while the enginemalfunction indicator is on. This will make it difficult to diagnose the cause of future prob- lems.CAUTION

 Always obey applicable laws and regula- tions. Be a polite and alert driver. Always leave room for unexpected events, such as sudden braking. If you plan to drive in another country, obey their vehicle registration laws and make sure you will be able to get the rightfuel.
N00629400445
 Check the battery. At the same time, check the terminals and wiring. Duringextremely cold weather, the battery will not be as strong. Also, the battery power level may drop because more power isused for cold starting and driving. Before driving the vehicle, check to see if the engine runs at the proper speed and ifthe headlights are as bright as normally. Charge or replace the battery if necessary. During extreme cold weather, it is possi-ble that a very low battery could freeze.
 Warm the engine sufficiently. After start- ing the engine, allow a short warm-up time to distribute oil to all cylinders. Then drive your vehicle slowly.Stay at low speeds at first so that the transaxle, transfer case and rear axle oil have time to spread to all lubricationpoints.  Check the engine antifreeze. If there is not enough coolant because of aleak or from engine overheating, addMitsubishi Motors Genuine Super Long Life Coolant Premium or equivalent. Please read this section in conjunctionwith the “Engine coolant” on page 9-7.

All the parts of the brake system are criticalto safety. Have the vehicle serviced by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice at regular inter-vals according to the “WARRANTY AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL”.
Check the brake system while driving at a low speed immediately after starting, espe-cially when the brakes are wet, to confirm they work normally. A film of water can be formed on the brakediscs and prevent normal braking after driv- ing in heavy rain or through large puddles, or after the vehicle is wash
ed. If this occurs, dry
the brakes out by driving slowly while lightlydepressing the brake pedal. On snowy roads, ice can form on the braking system, making the brakes less effective. While driving in such conditions, pay close attention to surrounding vehicles and to thecondition of the road surface. From time to time, lightly depress the brake pedal and check how effective the brakes are. It is important to take advantage of the engine braking by downshifting while driving onsteep downhill roads in order to prevent the brakes from overheating.
Driving during cold weather
WA R N I N G The battery gives off explosive hydrogen gas. Any spark or flame can cause the bat-tery to explode, which could cause serious injury or death. Always wear protective clothes and a facemask when working with your battery, or let a skilled mechanic do it.
WA R N I N G Never open the radiator cap when the radiator is hot. You could be seriously burned.

Trailer towing
Driving safety 6-13

Your vehicle will need service more often when you’re towing a trailer. Refer to “WAR- RANTY AND MAINTENANCE MAN- UAL”. Especially important in traileroperation are automatic transaxle fluid, engine oil, rear axle oil, belt, cooling system and brake system. Each of these is covered inthis manual.For details, please refer to the “Vehicle care and maintenance” section. Check periodically to see that all hitch nutsand bolts are tight. Mitsubishi Motors recommends that any trailer having a total weight of 1,250 lb (567 kg) or more be equipped with its own electric or surge-type brakes. If you choose electric brakes, be sure they are electrically actuated. Do not attempt to tap into your vehicle’s hydraulic system. No mat- ter how successful it may seem, any attemptto attach trailer brakes to your vehicle’s hydraulic system will lower braking effec- tiveness and create a potential hazard.
Trailer lights and equipment must comply with federal, state, and local regulations.Check with your local recreational vehicle dealer for the requirements in your area, and use only equipment designed for your vehi-cle. Since lighting and wiring vary by trailer type and brand, you should have a qualified tech- nician install a suitable connector between the vehicle and the trailer. Improper equipment orinstallation can cause damage to your vehi- cle’s electrical system and affect your vehicle warranty. Many states and Canadian provinces require special outside mirrors when towing a trailer.Even if not required, you should install spe- cial mirrors if you cannot clearly see behind you, or if the trailer creates a blind spot. Ask your trailer sales or rental agency if any other items are recommended or required for your towing situation.
Towing a trailer requires a certain amount of experience. Before setting out for the open road, you’llwant to get to know your trailer. Acquaint

Operating hints
WA R N I N G If you have a rear window open and you tow a trailer with your vehicle, carbon monoxide gas which you cannot see or smell could come into your vehicle. It cancause unconsciousness or death. Refer to “Exhaust system” on page 9-22. To maximize your safety when towing atrailer:• Have your exhaust system inspected forleaks, and make necessary repairs before starting on your trip.• Keep the rear windows closed.• If exhaust does come into your vehicle through a window or another opening, drive with your front, main heating or cooling system on and with the blower onany speed. This will bring fresh, outside air into your vehicle. Do not use recircu- lation because it only recirculates the airinside your vehicle. Refer to “Air selec- tion switch” on page 7-9.

yourself with the feel
of handling and braking
with the added weight of the trailer. Always keep in mind that the vehicle you are driving is now a good deal longer and not nearly asresponsive as your vehicle is without a trailer. Before you start, check the trailer hitch, safety chains, tires and mirror adjustment. Be sure your vehicle’s tires are inflated to the cold inflation pressure listed in the manual.You’ll find these numbers on the tire and loading information placard at the sill of the driver’s door.Refer to “Tire inflation pressures” on page 9-15. Stay at least twice as far behind the vehicle ahead as you would when driving your vehi-cle without a trailer. This can help you avoid situations that require heavy braking and sud- den turns.
You’ll need more passing distance up ahead when you’re towing a trailer. And, becauseyou’re a good deal longer, you’ll need to go much farther beyond the passed vehicle before you can return to your lane. Hold the bottom of the steering wheel with one hand. Then, to move the trailer to the left, just move that hand to the left. To move thetrailer to the right, move your hand to the right. Always back up slowly and, if possible, have someone guide you. When you’re turning with a trailer, make wider than normal turns to help prevent thetrailer from striking shoulders, curbs, road signs, trees or other objects.
Avoid jerky or sudden maneuvers. Signal well in advance. Towing a trailer puts additional burden on the engine and transaxle, which may cause over- heating. Following are some suggestions to reduce overheating: When towing at high altitudes, engine coolant and automatic transaxle fluid will overheat at a lower temperature than at normal altitudes.If you turn your engine off immediately after towing at high altitude on steep uphill grades, your vehicle may show signs similar to over-heating. To avoid this, let the engine run while parked (preferably on level ground)
