MITSUBISHI L200 2013 Owner's Manual (in English)

lThe driving range is shown based on the ac-
cumulated fuel consumption data, however,
may be changed depending on the driving con-
dition (road condition, driving behavior,
etc.). If the battery terminals are disconnec-
ted, the accumulated fuel consumption data
will be erased. It is recommended to use the
indication as reference.
l When the vehicle is fueled, the driving range
will be updated. However, if the amount of
fueling is small, the indication may not be cor-
rect. Therefore, fill up the tank as much as
possible in case of fueling.
l When the vehicle is stopped on a steep slope,
the value of the driving range may increase.
This is caused by the fuel movement inside
the tank on the slope and is not deemed as a
failure.
Resetting the driving range
Press the “RESET” function button to reset the driv-
ing range plotted in graph.NOTE
l Pressing the “RESET” function button will
not reset the indication (C).
l It is possible to set the display unit to km or
miles.
Refer to “User customization” on page 3-24.Average speed E00518400126
The average speed during the period since the last
reset is shown in (A) and the momentary speed in
(C). The average value of the vehicle speed is graph-
ed every 5 minutes and the data for up to 4 hours
are shown in (B).
When you press the “MANUAL” function button
in the auto reset mode, the mode will be changed to
the manual reset mode. When you press the “AU-
TO” function button in the manual reset mode, the
mode will be changed to the auto reset mode.

l When the average speed cannot be calcula-
ted, “---” will be shown.
l The average and momentary speed change de-
pending on the driving condition (road condi-
tion, driving behavior, etc.). The indications
may differ from the actual speed. Therefore,
it is recommended to use the indications as
reference.
l The unit indication can be changed to your de-
sired setting (km/h or mph).

evation selected.NOTE
l The elevation is determined from changes in
atmospheric pressure. Depending on weather
conditions, the indicated elevation may differ
from the actual elevation. Variations in atmos-
pheric pressure can cause different elevations
to be shown even in the same location. This
behavior does not indicate a fault. Use the in-
dication as a guide only.
Resetting the elevation
Press the “RESET” function button to reset the ele-
vation plotted in graph.

This compass shows the direction of the vehicle by
the 8 azimuth system.
NOTE
l This system uses the earth’s magnetic field,
and so may not show the correct direction de-
pending on the traffic condition or in the fol-
lowing places where the earth’s magnetic
field is disrupted. •Car parks located in buildings and tunnels
• Expressways and underground cables
• Area over the subway
• Transforming station
• Areas along the railroad
In these cases, the correct direction will be
displayed once the vehicle returns to a place
where the earth’s magnetic field is stable.
l Do not install ski racks, antennas, etc. which
are attached to the vehicle by means of a mag-
net. They affect the operation of the compass.
Setting the declination
The declination is the difference between true
north (the direction of the geographic north pole)
and where a compass needle points to. Since the dec-
lination varies from place to place, it needs to be
set for each region. Otherwise the compass will not
show the correct direction.
Set the declination by the following steps:
NOTE
l The default declination setting is 0 degrees
.
In accordance with the illustration, set the dec-
lination setting to the declination contour near-
est to a region where you drive the vehicle.
l The declination can be set at intervals of
1 degrees, from 28 degrees west (W28) to
28 degrees east (E28).
With a settings display showing, press the “ADJ”
button and select “COMPASS VARIANCE”.
1. Press the function button for “SELECT”.
2. Press the function button for “←” or “→” to
set the desired declination.

Pressing “←” or “→” for more than 1 sec-
ond makes the value change rapidly.

completed, press the “SET” function button.
Setting the compass
The compass is usually calibrated automatically
when the vehicle is moving. At times when com-
plete calibration is not possible, no compass indica-
tions are given. Manually set the compass using the
following procedure.
NOTE
l If your vehicle has a sunroof, keep the sun-
roof closed when calibrating the compass.
Having the sunroof open when calibrating
the compass could render the compass un-
able to correctly show directions.
With a settings display showing, press the “ADJ”
button and select “COMPASS CALIBRATION”. 1. Press the function button for “SELECT”.
2. Press the function button for “SELECT”.
3.Turn the vehicle slowly through 360 degrees
in a safe, open area with no buildings and oth-
er vehicles.
NOTE
l If you wish to stop calibrating the compass
part-way through the procedure, press the “IN-
FO” button or “ADJ” button.
