Automatic transmission
Sports Mode 5A/T E00603201935NOTElDuring 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
E00603302236
The transmission has 5 forward gears and 1
reverse gear.
The individual gears are selected automati- cally, depending on the speed of the vehicle
and the position of the accelerator pedal.

The selector lever (A) has 2 gates; the maingate (B) and the manual gate (C).While depressing the brake pedal,
move the selector lever through the gate.Move the selector lever throughthe gate.WARNINGl Always depress the brake pedal when
shifting the selector lever into a gear from the “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL) po-sition.
Never put your foot on the accelerator
pedal while shifting the selector lever
from the “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEU- TRAL) position.NOTEl To avoid erroneous operation, move the se-
lector lever firmly into each position and
briefly hold it there. Always check the posi- tion shown by the selector lever position dis-
play after moving the selector lever.
l If the brake pedal is not depressed and held,
the shift-lock device activates to prevent the selector lever from being moved from the “P” (PARK) position.When the selector lever cannot
be shifted from the “P” (PARK)position
E00629101192
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 or the operation mode in ON,the battery may be flat or the shift-lock
mechanism may be malfunctioning. Immedi-
ately have your vehicle checked by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point.
If you need to move the vehicle, shift the se- lector lever as follows.
For LHD vehicles
1. Make sure the parking brake is applied. 2. Stop the engine if it is running.

“P” PARK
This position locks the transmission to pre- vent the vehicle from moving. The engine
can be started in this position.
“R” REVERSE
This position is to back up.
CAUTIONl Never shift into the “P” (PARK) or “R”
(REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in motion to avoid transmission damage.
“N” NEUTRAL
At this position the transmission is disengag-
ed. It is the same as the neutral position on amanual transmission, and should only be used when the vehicle is stationary for an ex-
tended length of time during driving, such as
in a traffic jam.
WARNINGl Never move the selector lever to the “N”
(NEUTRAL) position while driving. A se- rious accident could occur since you could
accidentally move the lever into the “P” (PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position or
you will lose engine braking.
l On a gradient, the engine should be star-
ted in the “P” (PARK) position, not in the
“N” (NEUTRAL) position.
l To prevent rolling, always keep your foot
on the brake pedal when the vehicle is in “N” (NEUTRAL) position, or when shift- ing into or out of “N” (NEUTRAL) posi-
tion.“D” DRIVE
This position is used for most city and high-
way driving. The transmission will automati-
cally change its gear depending on road and driving conditions.
CAUTIONl To prevent transmission damage, never shift
into the “D” (DRIVE) position from the “R”
(REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in motion.Sport mode
E00603902681
Whether the vehicle is stationary or in mo-
tion, sports mode is selected by gently push-ing the selector lever from the “D” (DRIVE)
position into the manual gate (A).
To return to “D” range operation, gently push
the selector lever back into the main gate (B).
In sports mode, gear shifts can be made rap- idly simply by moving the selector leverbackward and forward. For vehicles equippedwith the shift paddles, shift paddles at the
steering wheel can also be used to perform
gearshift. In contrast to a manual transmis-
sion, the sports mode allows gear shifts with the accelerator pedal depressed.

Page 148 of 426
NOTElIf your vehicle is equipped with shift pad-
dles, you can shift into sports mode with
shift paddles when the selector lever is in the main gate as well. Also, you can return to
the “D” range operation in any of following ways.
When returning to “D” range operation, the selector lever position display will change to
“D” (DRIVE) position.
• Pull the + (SHIFT UP) side shift paddle
forward (towards the driver) for over 2
seconds.
• Stop the vehicle.
• Push the selector lever from the “D”
(DRIVE) position into the manual gate
(A) and push the selector lever back into the main gate (B).
+ (SHIFT UP)
The transmission shifts up by one gear with
each operation.
- (SHIFT DOWN)
The transmission shifts down by one gear
with each operation.
CAUTIONl In sports mode, the driver must execute up-
ward shifts in accordance with prevailing road conditions, taking care to keep the en-
gine speed below the red zone.
l Repeated continuous operation of the selec-
tor lever or the shift paddles will continuous-ly switch shift position.
l For vehicles equipped with the shift paddles,
do not use the left- and right-hand shift pad- dles at the same time. Doing so could cause
a shift of gear ratio that you do not expect.NOTEl Only the 5 forward gears can be selected. To
reverse or park the vehicle, move the selec-
tor lever to the “R” (Reverse) or “P” (Park)
position as required.NOTEl To maintain good running performance, the
transmission may refuse to perform an up- shift when the selector lever or the shift pad-dles are operated to the “+ (SHIFT UP)” po-
sition at certain vehicle speeds. Also, to pre- vent over-revving of the engine, the trans-
mission may refuse to perform a downshift when the selector lever or the shift paddlesare operated to the “— (SHIFT DOWN)”
position at certain vehicle speeds. When this
happens, a buzzer sounds to indicate that a downshift is not going to take place.
l Downward shifts are made automatically
when the vehicle slows down. When the ve-
hicle stops, 1 st
gear is automatically selected.
l When driving away on a slippery road, push
the selector lever forward into the “+(SHIFT UP)” position. This causes the trans-
mission to shift into the 2 nd
gear which is
better for smooth driving away on a slippery
road. Push the selector lever to the “—
(SHIFT DOWN)” side to shift back to the 1 st
gear.
l If the
A/T fluid temperature is high, the pro-
tection function operates. In this case, the
transmission may refuse to perform an up- shift when the selector lever or the shift pad-
dles are operated to the “+ (SHIFT UP)” po- sition in sports mode, or it may automatical-
ly downshift.

ately have the vehicle inspected at a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
