NOTE

Only the forward gears 1 to 6 can be selected.
To reverse or park, place the gearshift lever in the “R”
(REVERSE) or “P” (PARK) position.


During manual shifting, downshifting will be performed
automatically when the vehicle slows down and the trans-
mission will downshift to 1st gear before the vehicle
stops.


If the gearshift lever or sportronic steering wheel shifters
are operated repeatedly, the transmission will also shift
repeatedly.


In order to ensure driving performance, upshifting may
not occur depending on the vehicle speed even if the gear-
shift lever or sportronic steering wheel shifters are oper-
ated. In addition, in order to prevent excessive engine
speed, the buzzer sounds and downshifting may not occur
depending on the vehicle speed even if the gearshift lever
or sportronic steering wheel shifters are operated.


When driving in an aggressive manner involving high
engine rpm, sudden acceleration and/or deceleration, the
Twin Clutch SST could take longer to shift due to higher
fluid temperatures.
CAUTION
!

When manually shifting while the vehicle is being
driven, select the correct shift position to control the
engine speed so that the tachometer indicator does
not enter the red zone.


Sudden engine braking and rapid acceleration can
cause the vehicle to skid. Shift down according to
road conditions and vehicle speed.


If both the left and right sportronic steering wheel
shifters are operated at the same time, the transmis-
sion may not change gears.

NOTE

When moving out of mud, sand or fresh snow, pressing
the accelerator pedal may not allow the engine speed to
increase. In such situations, temporarily turning off the
ASC with the “ASC OFF” switch will make it easier to
move out your vehicle.


By pressing the ASC OFF switch, both the skid control
function and the traction control function are turned OFF.


By pressing down the “ASC OFF” switch for 3 seconds or
longer, you can deactivate the ASC and the braking con-
trol of the AYC.
At this time, the display will appear for a few sec-
onds on the information screen in the multi-information
display.
Then, the previous screen will return and the “!” mark will
come on.
Press the ASC OFF switch again to turn ON the ASC.


If the ASC OFF switch is continuously pressed after the
ASC has been turned OFF or the ASC and the braking
control of AYC have been turned off, an erroneous opera-
tion prevention function operates and the ASC is automat-
ically turned ON.

NOTE

Start adjusting when the knob is at the “0” position (when
the beam is at its highest).


Keep the knob in the “0” position except when using the
knob to lower the headlight beam angle.


Always return the knob to the “0” position when the load
is removed and the people have left the vehicle.
Turn signal lever
N00522600447
When changing lanes, or to making a gradual turn, hold the
lever in the “lane change” position (1). It will return to the neu-
tral position when you let go. Use the full position (2) when
making a normal turn. The lever will return to the neutral posi-
tion when the turn is complete. There may be times when the
lever does not return to the neutral position. This usually hap-
pens when the steering wheel is turned only slightly. You can
easily return the lever by hand.
Also, when you move the lever to (1) slightly then release it,
the turn signal lights and the indicator light in the instrument
cluster will flash three times.
WA R N I N G
!

To avoid distraction while driving, always perform
headlight adjustments before vehicle operation.

N00849800405
1. Loosen the wheel nuts with the wheel nut wrench. Do not
remove the wheel nuts yet.2. Place the jack under one of the jacking points (A) shown
in the illustration. Use the jacking point closest to the tire
you wish to change.
WA R N I N G
!

Set the jack only at the positions shown here. If the
jack is set at a wrong position, it could dent your
vehicle or the jack might fall over and cause per-
sonal injury.


Do not use the jack on a tilted or soft surface.
Otherwise, the jack might slip and cause personal
injury. Always use the jack on a flat, hard surface.
Before setting the jack, make sure there are no sand
or pebbles under the jack base.

5. Remove the wheel nuts with the wheel nut wrench, then
take the wheel off. 6. Clean out any mud, etc. on the hub surface (F), hub bolts
(G) or in the installation holes (H) in the wheel, and then
mount the spare tire.

The jack should not be used for any purpose other
than to change a tire.


No one should be in your vehicle when using the
jack.


Do not start or run the engine while your vehicle is
on the jack.


Do not turn the raised wheel. The tires that are still
on the ground could turn and make your vehicle fall
off the jack. CAUTION
!

Handle the wheel carefully when changing the tire,
to avoid scratching the wheel surface.WA R N I N G

 Compact spare wheel
Install the wheel nuts with their tapered ends facing
inward, then tighten by hand until the wheel is no longer
loose.
NOTE

Flange nuts can be temporarily used on the compact spare
or steel wheel, but return them to the original wheel and
tire as soon as possible.


If all four wheels are changed to steel wheels, use tapered
nuts.8. Lower the vehicle slowly by rotating the wheel nut
wrench counterclockwise until the tire touches the
ground.
CAUTION
!

Never apply oil to either the wheel bolts or the nuts
or they will tighten too much.

Snow tires
N00940000359
In some areas of the country, snow tires are required for winter
driving. If snow tires are required in your area, you must
choose snow tires of the same size and type as the original tires
provided with your vehicle. Snow tires should also be installed
on all four wheels. Otherwise your safety and vehicle handling
can be reduced.
Even where laws may permit it, snow tires should not be oper-
ated at sustained speeds over 75 mph (120 km/h).Tire chains

Clutch pedal free play
(if so equipped)
N00940200045
To check the clutch pedal free play (A), turn off the engine and
press the pedal until you feel resistance.
Clutch pedal free play:
.2 to .5 inch (6 to 13 mm)
CAUTION
!

If flange nuts are used on your vehicle, change to
tapered nuts when using snow tires with steel
wheels.


Only Mitsubishi Motors genuine wheels should be
used, because your vehicle is equipped with a tire
pressure monitoring system.
Use of another type of wheel risks air leaks and sen-
sor damage, as it will not be possible to install the
tire pressure sensor properly.CAUTION
!

Tire chains cannot be used on your vehicle. The
clearance between the chains and the body is not
sufficient to allow proper clearance, and the vehicle
body might be damaged.
