At extremely cold ambient temperature
If the engine won’t start, press the accelerator pedal about half-
way down while cranking the engine. Release the accelerator
pedal when the engine starts.
Startability of continuously variable transmission (CVT)
vehicles or Twin Clutch SST vehicles at extremely cold
ambient temperature
When the ambient temperature is -4°F (-20°C) or lower on
vehicles with CVT, or -22°F (-30°C) or lower on vehicles with
Twin Clutch SST, it may not be possible to start from a stand-
still even with the selector lever (CVT) or the gearshift lever
(Twin Clutch SST) in the “D” (DRIVE) position.
This phenomenon occurs because the transaxle has not warmed
up sufficiently; it does not indicate a problem. If this occurs,
place the selector lever (CVT) or the gearshift lever (Twin
Clutch SST) in the “P” (PARK) position and let the engine idle
for at least 10 minutes.
The transaxle will warm up, and you will be able to drive nor-
mally.
Do not leave the vehicle during warm-up operation.Flooded engine
If the engine has flooded during starting, first run the starter for
5 to 6 seconds while holding down the accelerator pedal.
Return the ignition switch to the “LOCK” position and release
the accelerator pedal. Wait a moment, then without depressing
the accelerator pedal, turn the ignition switch to the “START”
position for another 5 to 6 seconds. Release the ignition switch
if the engine starts. Repeat as necessary. Contact your
Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice for
assistance.
CAUTION
!When starting the engine, make sure you depress
the brake pedal. If you start the engine with the
accelerator pedal depressed, move your foot to the
brake pedal as soon as the engine has started.

or contact your local Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facil-
ity of your choice for assistance.
Stopping the engine
N00542300062
1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop.
2. Fully engage the parking brake while depressing the brake
pedal.
3. For vehicles with a manual transaxle, turn the ignition
switch to the “LOCK” position to stop the engine, and
then move the gearshift lever to the 1st (on a uphill) or
“R” (Reverse) (on a downhill) position.
For vehicles with continuously variable transmission
(CVT) or Twin Clutch SST, place the selector lever (CVT)
or the gearshift lever (Twin Clutch SST) in the “P”
(PARK) position, and then turn the ignition switch to the
“LOCK” position to stop the engine.

DRIVING DOWNHILL
When traveling down steep grades, the computer may automat-
ically select a lower shift position. This function assists engine
braking efforts, reducing the need for using the service brakes.
Waiting
N00541000033
For short waiting periods, such as at traffic lights, the vehicle
can be left in gearshift lever position and held stationary with
the service brake.
For longer waiting periods with the engine running, place the
gearshift lever in the “N” (NEUTRAL) position and apply the
parking brake, while holding the vehicle stationary with the
service brake.
Prior to moving off after having stopped the vehicle, make sure
that the gearshift lever is in “D” (DRIVE) position or manual
shift position.
CAUTION
!Do not use the tendency of the vehicle to creep for-
ward in order to drive at low speeds up hills.
The transmission may be damaged and an accident
may occur due to the following conditions.
• The Twin Clutch SST fluid temperature will rise
and can cause transmission damage.
• If the vehicle is continuously driven at low speeds
using the tendency of the vehicle to creep forward,
the vehicle will vibrate or the warning display
will appear on the information screen in the multi-
information display to alert the driver that the
Twin Clutch SST fluid temperature has risen.
After that, if the Twin Clutch SST fluid tempera-
ture rises even higher, the transmission protection
control will operate.
If this occurs, the vehicle may suddenly reverse as
if the gearshift lever was in the “N” (NEUTRAL)
position and cause an accident.
If the warning display appears or the transmis-
sion protection control operates, refer to “When
warning display is showing” on page 3-110.
CAUTION
!Do not rev the engine unnecessarily while the vehicle
is stationary. Unexpected acceleration may occur if
the gearshift lever is in a position other than “P”
(PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL).

3 Hill start assist
(vehicles with Twin Clutch SST)
N00562600032
The hill start assist makes it easy to start off on a steep uphill
slope by preventing the vehicle from moving backwards. It
keeps the braking force for about 2 seconds when you move
your foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
To operate
N00562700033
1. Stop the vehicle completely using the brake pedal.
2. Release the brake pedal and the hill start assist will main-
tain the braking force applied while stopping for approxi-
mately 2 seconds.
3. Depress the accelerator pedal and the hill start assist grad-
ually will decrease the braking force as the vehicle starts
moving.NOTEThe hill start assist is activated when all of the following
conditions are met.
• The engine is running.
• The gearshift lever is in any position other than “P”
(PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL).
• The vehicle is completely stationary, with the brake
pedal depressed.
• The parking brake is released.
The hill start assist will not operate if the accelerator pedal
is depressed before the brake pedal is released.
The hill start assist also operates when reversing on an
uphill slope.
CAUTION
!Do not overly rely on the hill start assist to prevent
backwards movement of the vehicle. Under certain
circumstances, even when hill start assist is acti-
vated, the vehicle may move backwards if the brake
pedal is not sufficiently depressed, if the vehicle is
heavily loaded, or if the road is very steep or slip-
pery.The hill start assist is not designed to keep the vehi-
cle stopped in place on uphill slopes for more than 2
seconds.When facing uphill, do not rely on using the hill
start assist to maintain a stopped position as an
alternative to depressing the brake pedal.
Doing so could cause an accident.Do not turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” or
“ACC” position while the hill start assist is operat-
ing. The hill start assist could stop operating, which
could result in an accident.

Anti-lock braking system
(if so equipped)
N00517900266
The anti-lock braking system helps prevent the wheels from
locking up when braking. This helps you keep control of your
vehicle and its direction. Driving hints When using the anti-lock brakes (sudden braking), steer-
ing is slightly different from normal driving conditions.
Use the steering wheel carefully.
Always keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front of
you. Even if your vehicle is equipped with the anti-lock
braking system, leave a greater braking distance when:
• Driving on gravel or snow-covered roads.
• Driving on uneven road surfaces.
Operation of anti-lock braking system is not restricted to
situations where brakes are applied suddenly. This system
may also prevent the wheels from locking when you drive
over manholes, steel roadwork plates, road markings, or
any uneven road surface.
When the anti-lock braking system is in use, you may feel
the brake pedal vibrating and hear a unique sound. You
may also feel as if the pedal resists being pressed.
In this situation, simply hold the brake pedal down
firmly. Do not pump the brake, which will result in
reduced braking performance.
CAUTION
!If the warning is displayed, the hill start assist will
not operate. Start off carefully.Park your vehicle in a safe place and stop the engine.
Restart the engine and check whether the warning
display went out, in which case the hill start assist is
again working normally.
If the warning remains displayed or reappears fre-
quently, it is not necessary to stop the vehicle imme-
diately, but the vehicle should be inspected by an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair
facility of your choice as soon as possible.
