The speedometer shows the vehicle speed in miles per hour (mph) or kilometers per hour (km/h).
CAUTION The reference lines for distance and vehicle width are intended to indicate the distance to a flat object such as a level, flat road surface. They may not indicate correct distance depending on the shape of an obstacle.For example, when there is an object behind the vehicle that has upper sections projecting in the direction of the vehicle, the referencelines on the screen will indicate that point A is the farthest point a
nd point B is the closest
point to the vehicle. In reality, point A and Bare actually the same distance from the vehi- cle, and point C is farther off than point A and B.NOTE
 Monitor brightness is adjusted automatically by sensors.
 On vehicles equipped with Mitsubishi Multi- Communication System, it is possible to change the display language of the screen. For details, please refer to the separate owner’s manual.  Under certain circumstances, it may become difficult to see an image on the screen, evenwhen the system is functioning correctly. • In a dark area, such as at night. • When water drops or condensation are on the lens. • When sun light or headlights shine directly into the lens.

The tachometer shows engine revolutions per minute. This allows the driver to determinethe most efficient shift position (manual transaxle), selector position {continuously variable transmission (CVT)} or shift posi-tion (Twin Clutch SST) and engine speed combinations. This gauge also assists in evaluating engineperformance.
N00554900137
Each time you press this button, there is asound and the brightness of the instruments changes.
Tachometer
CAUTION The red zone indicates an engine speed beyond the range of safe operation. Select the correct shift position (manual transaxle), selector position (CVT) or gear- shift position (Twin Clutch SST) to control the engine speed so that the tachometer indi-cator does not enter the red zone.
Rheostat meter illumination button
NOTE
 You can adjust to 8 different levels respec- tively for when the tail
lights are illuminated
and when they are not.  If the vehicle is equipped with the automatic light control, when the light switch is in a position other than the “OFF” position, themeter illumination switches automatically to the adjusted brightness, depending on the brightness outside the vehicle.  The brightness level of the instruments is stored in memory when the ignition switch isturned off.  If you press and hold the button for longer than about 1 second when the parking lights are illuminated, the brightness level changes to the maximum level. Pressing and holdingthe button for longer than about 1 second again returns the brightness level to the pre- vious level.

N00520600296
This light comes on in the event of a malfunc- tion in the charging system or when the igni- tion switch is turned to the “ON” position (engine off). A warning is also displayed inthe multi-information display. When the engine is started,
the light should go out.
Check to make sure that the light has goneout before driving.
N00558300025 N00558400084
Type 1 Type 2 This warning is displayed if the vehicle is being driven with the parking brake still applied. The warning light in the instrumentcluster only comes on when the parking brake is applied.
CAUTION Driving for a long time with the engine mal- function indicator on may cause more dam- age to the emission control system. This could also affect fuel economy and drivabil- ity. If this indicator does not come on when the ignition key is turned to the “ON” position,have the system checked at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice. If the engine malfunction indicator comes on while the engine is running, avoid driving athigh speeds. During vehicle operation with the indicator on, the vehicle may not accelerate when youdepress the accelerator pedal. When the vehicle is stationary with the indi- cator on, you must depress the brake pedalmore firmly than usual since the engine idling speed is higher than usual and a vehi- cle with a CVT or a Twin Clutch SST has astronger tendency to creep forward.
NOTE
 Do not disconnect the battery cable when the engine malfunction indicator (“SERVICE ENGINE SOON” or “Check engine light”) is on. The engine electronic control module storescritical OBD information (especially exhaust emission data), which may be lost if the bat- tery cable is disconnected while the enginemalfunction indicator is on. This will make it difficult to diagnose the cause of future prob- lems.
Charging system warning light
CAUTION If the warning light stays on while the engine is running, park your vehicle in a safe place as soon as possible and contact an authorizedMitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice to have the system checked.
Information screen display Brake warning display
CAUTION If a vehicle is driven without releasing the parking brake, the brakes will overheat, resulting in ineffective braking and possible brake failure.If this warning is displayed while driving, release the parking brake.

CAUTION If this warning stays on and does not go out while driving, there is a danger of ineffectivebraking. If this happens, park the vehicle in a safe place, and contact an authorized Mit- subishi Motors dealer or a repair facility ofyour choice.
 If the brake warning display, brake warning light, and the Anti-lock braking system warning light are illuminated at the same time, the braking force distribution function will not operate, so the vehicle may be desta-bilized during sudden braking. Avoid sudden braking and high-speed driving. Park the vehicle in a safe place, and contact an autho-rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice. The vehicle should be brought to a halt in the following manner when brake performance is deteriorated.• Confirm that the vehicle slows down whenyou press down on the brake pedal harderthan usual. In some cases, the brake pedal may go all the way to the floor.• Should the brakes fail, use engine brakingto reduce your speed and slowly apply the parking brake.Depress the brake pedal to illuminate the stop lights to alert the vehicles behind you.

This usually happens when the steering wheel isturned only slightly. You can easily return the lever by hand. Also, when you move the lever to (1) slightlythen release it, the turn signal lights and indi- cator light in the instrument cluster will flash three times.
N00522700217
If you press the flasher switch, the front andrear turn signals will flash intermittently, and so will the hazard warning lights. This is an emergency warning system and should not beused when the vehicle is in motion, except foremergencies. If you need to leave your vehicle, the flashers will keep working afte
r the ignition key is
removed.
NOTE
 A light in the instrument panel flashes to show when the front and rear turn signal lights are working properly. If this light flashes faster than usual, check for a burned out light bulb or malfunctioningconnection. If the panel light does not come on when the lever is moved, check for a blown fuse or aburned out bulb in the panel. Have the vehicle inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facilityof your choice.  The turn signal light 3-flash function for lane changes can be deactivated.
