Indication lamps
E00501600012Turn-signal indication lamps/
Hazard warning indication
lamps
E00501700185
These
indication lamps blink on and off
when a turn-signal lamp is operating.
NOTE
l If the blinking is too fast, the
cause may be a blown lamp bulb
or a faulty turn-signal connection.
When the hazard warning lamp switch is
pressed, all turn-signal lamps will flash
on and off continuously. High-beam indication lamp
E00501800115
This

indication lamp illuminates when
the high-beam is used. Front fog lamp indication
lamp*
E00501900347
This

indication lamp illuminates while
the front fog lamps are on. Rear fog lamp indication
lamp*
E00502000068
This

indication lamp illuminates while
the rear fog lamp is on. Diesel preheat indication lamp
E00502300250
This

indication lamp illuminates when
the ignition switch is placed in the “ON”
position. As the glow plug becomes hot,
the lamp goes out and the engine can be
started. CAUTION
l
If
the diesel preheat indication
lamp comes on after the engine
is started, the engine speed may
not rise above the idling speed
because of fuel freezing. In this
case, keep the engine idling for
about ten minutes, then turn
off the ignition switch and im-
mediately turn it on again to
confirm that the diesel preheat
indication lamp is off.
NOTE l If

the engine is cold, the diesel pre-
heat indication lamp is on for a lon-
ger time.
l When the engine has not been star-
ted within about 5 seconds after
the diesel preheat indication lamp
went out, return the ignition
switch to the “LOCK” position.
Then, turn the switch to the “ON”
position to preheat the engine
again. l
When
the engine is warm, the die-
sel preheat indication lamp does
not come on even if the ignition
switch is placed in the “ON” posi-
tion. Fuel filter indication lamp
E00509900170
This

indication lamp illuminates when
the ignition switch is turned to the “ON”
position and goes off after the engine
has started. If it lights up while the en-
gine is running, it indicates that water
has accumulated inside the fuel filter; if
this happens, remove the water from the
fuel filter.
Refer to “Removal of water from the
fuel filter” on page 6-06.
When the lamp goes out, you can re-
sume driving. If it either does not go out
or comes on from time to time, we rec-
ommend you to have the vehicle inspec-
ted. Instruments and controls

If the lamps do not turn on or off with the
switch in the “AUTO” position, manually op-
erate the switch and we recommend you to
have your vehicle checked.
[Vehicles with Daytime Running Lamp]

tion within approximately 3 minutes, the auto-
cutout function will not be activated.
When you want to keep the lamps on l Turn the switch in the “OFF” position to
switch off all lamps while the ignition key is
in the “LOCK” or “ACC” position or re-
move it from the ignition switch.
l Turn on the lamps with the switch in the
“ ”
or “ ” position again, then the
lamps will remain on.

For details, we recommend you to consult a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point. Lamp monitor buzzer
E00506100184
If

the driver’s door is opened when the ignition key
is in the “LOCK” or “ACC” position or removed
from the ignition switch while the lamps are on, a
buzzer will sound to remind the driver to turn off
the lamps. When the lamp auto-cutout function
acts, the buzzer will stop automatically. When this

beam changes from high to low (or low to high)
each time the lever is pulled to (1). While the high-
beam is on, the high-beam indication lamp in the in-
strument cluster will also illuminate. Headlamp flasher
E00506300157

set to high-beam illumination, the headlamps
are automatically returned to their low-beam
setting when the lamp switch is next turned
to the “ ” position.
Headlamp levelling switch*
E00506400826
The
angle of the headlamp beam varies depending
on the load carried by the vehicle.
The headlamp levelling switch can be used to ad-
just the headlamp illumination distance (when the
lower beam is illuminated) so that the headlamps’
glare does not distract other drivers.
Set the switch (referring to the following table) to
the appropriate position according to the number of
people and the load in the vehicle. CAUTION
l
Always
perform adjustments before driv-
ing.
Do not attempt to adjust while driving, as
it could cause an accident.

adjusting the beam position, first put
the dial in the “0” position (the highest beam
position). Single cab Vehicle condi-
