and dipper switch E00506003533
HeadlampsNOTEl Do not leave the headlamps and other lamps
on for a long time while the engine is sta-tionary (not running). A run-down batterycould result.
l When it rains or when the vehicle has been
washed, the inside of the lens sometimes be-
comes foggy. This is the same phenomenon as when window glass mists up on a humid
day, and does not indicate a functional prob- lem. When the lamp is switched on, the heat
will remove the fog. However, if water gath-
ers inside the lamp, we recommend you to have it checked.

CAUTIONlDo not remove the ignition key from the ig-
nition switch while driving. The steeringwheel will lock, causing loss of control.
l If the engine is stopped while driving, the
brake servomechanism will cease to function and braking efficiency will deteriorate. Also,
the power steering system will not function
and it will require greater manual effort to
operate the steering.
l Do not leave the key in the “ON” position
for a long time when the engine is not run- ning, doing so will cause the battery to be
discharged.
l Do not turn the key to the “START” position
when the engine is running, doing so could damage the starter motor.NOTEl For vehicles with an
A/T, when the selector
lever is in the “P” (PARK) position, do not operate the lock button of selector lever re-
peatedly for more than 30 seconds. You may
not be able to remove the key from the igni-
tion switch, because the protection circuit is
activated. If this occurs, wait a few moments before removing the key.

the battery is weak or dead, refer to the“Emergency starting” section for in- structions on starting the engine.
l The engine is well warmed up if the
coolant temperature gauge needle starts
to move (the engine speed decreases).
Extended warming-up operation will re-
sult in excessive fuel consumption.

Automatic transmissionSports Mode 4A/T, 5A/T E00603200710NOTElDuring running-in period or immediately af-
ter reconnection of the battery cable, there may be a case where gear shifts are not
made smoothly. This does not indicate a faulty transmission.
Gear shifts will become smooth after the transmission has been shifted several times
by the electronic control system.Selector lever operation
E00603301082
The transmission has 4 forward gears (4A/T),
5 forward gears (5A/T) and 1 reverse gear.
The individual gears are selected automati- cally, depending on the position of the gear selector lever, the speed of the vehicle and
the position of the accelerator pedal.
The selector lever has 2 gates; the main gate
(1) and the manual gate (2).NOTEl For information on manual gate operation,
please refer to “Sports mode” on page 6-21.In the main gate, the selector lever has 4 po-
sitions, and is equipped with a lock button
(A) to avoid inadvertent selection of the wrong gear.The lock button must be pushed while the brake pedal is depressed to move

selector lever from the “P” (PARK) or
“N” (NEUTRAL) position while depress-
ing the accelerator pedal, doing so is dan- gerous because the vehicle will “jump”
forward or backward.
When the selector lever cannot
be shifted from the “P” (PARK)
position
When the selector lever cannot be shifted from the “P” (PARK) position to another po-
sition while the brake pedal is pressed and
held down with the ignition switch at the
“ON” position, the battery may be flat or the shift-lock mechanism may be malfunction- ing.
Immediately have your vehicle checked by
an authorized MITSUBISHI MOTORS deal-
er.

If the warning lamp illuminateswhile driving
E00607302436
If only the ABS warning lamp illuminates
l Avoid hard braking and high-speed driv-
ing. Stop the vehicle in a safe place.
Restart the engine and check to see whether the lamp goes out after a few
minutes driving; if it then remains off during driving, there is no problem.
However, if the lamp does not go out, or if it lights up again when the vehicle is
driven, we recommend you to have the
vehicle checked as soon as possible.
l The ABS warning lamp can illuminate if
the battery voltage is insufficient when the engine is started. In this case, it doesnot indicate an ABS fault.
Charge the battery by allowing the en- gine to idle for a while.
If the battery has been charged but the
ABS warning lamp continues to illumi-
nate or illuminates intermittently, have
the vehicle inspected.
If the ABS warning lamp and
brake warning lamp illuminate
at the same time
The ABS and brake force distribution func- tion will not work, so hard braking could
make the vehicle unstable.
Avoid hard braking and high-speed driving.
Stop the vehicle in a safe place and contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point.
NOTEl Immediately after the vehicle starts moving
after engine start up, a whining sound of a motor will be heard from the engine com-
partment. If the brake pedal is depressed at that moment, you can feel the brake pedal
pulsating.
This pulsation is due to the self-diagnosis
operation of the ABS and does not indicate a malfunction.
l After driving on snowy roads, remove any
snow and ice which may have become ad-
hered to the wheel areas.
When doing this, be careful not to damage the wheel speed sensors (A) and cables loca-NOTEted at each wheel on vehicles equipped with
an ABS.
l The ABS becomes operative after the vehi-
cle has accelerated to a speed in excess of approximately 10 km/h (6 mph). It stops op-
erating when the vehicle decelerates to a speed below approximately 7 km/h (4 mph).
