NOTEIf the ambient temperature drops and the viscosity of the
AWC control fluid increases, the warning may be dis-
played.
At this time, ACD control is temporarily suspended, but
this will not affect normal driving.
After the vehicle is driven for a while, if the engine is
restarted after the AWC control fluid warms up or the
ambient temperature increases, the ACD control will start
operating again if the warning display goes out.
Electronically controlled 4WD system
(if so
equipped)N00548300019
The electronically controlled 4WD system is an all-wheel drive
system that allows one of three drive modes to be selected with
a switch, in accordance with the driving conditions.
The following drive modes are available.
4-wheel drive operation requires special driving skills.
Carefully read the “All-wheel driving operation” section on
page 3-140 and take care to drive safely.
Drive mode
Function
2WDThis mode is for economical
driving on normal dry roads
and freeways.
Driving in front-wheel drive.
4WD AUTOThe default mode.
This mode is for automatically
controlling the distribution of
driving torque to all four
wheels according to the driving
conditions.
4WD LOCKThis mode is for driving in slip-
pery conditions such as on
snow-covered roads or sand.
The large amount of driving
torque that is applied to the rear
tires enables getting out of slip-
pery areas and powerful driving
is possible across all ranges.

Drive mode-selector
N00548400010
The drive mode can be selected by pressing the switch while
the ignition switch is in the “ON” position.
The drive mode is displayed as an interrupt display on the
information screen in the multi-information display when the
drive mode is switched.
After a few seconds, the information screen returns from the
drive mode display to the previous screen.
NOTEThe drive mode can be switched while driving or stopped.

CAUTION
!Do not operate the drive mode-selector with the
front wheels spinning on a snowy road or in similar
conditions. The vehicle could lunge in an unexpected
direction. Driving on dry, paved roads in “4WD LOCK” mode
causes increased fuel consumption, noise, and pre-
mature tire wear.Do not drive with the tires spinning in “2WD” mode.
Doing so could generate heat in the drive-system
components.

turned to the “ON” position, and then the drive mode is dis-
played a few seconds after the engine is started.

“4WD” indicator
“LOCK” indicator
2WD OFF OFF
4WD AUTO ON OFF
4WD LOCK ON ON
CAUTION
!If the selected drive mode indicator is blinking, the
vehicle switches automatically to front-wheel drive
in order to protect the drive-system components,
and drive mode selection is no longer possible with
the drive mode-selector.
The warning display is also displayed in the infor-
mation screen in the multi-information display.
Reduce speed, and if the indicator goes out after
driving a while, resume driving as before. If the indi-
cator continues blinking for more than about 5 min-
utes, have the vehicle inspected at an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your
choice as soon as possible.Type 1 Type 2

For vehicles with full-time 4WDFull-time 4WD vehicles are propelled by engine power distrib-
uted constantly and appropriately to all 4 wheels.
Not only does this ensure enhanced handling on dry, paved
roads but also permits better traction when driving on slippery,
wet or snow-covered roads and when moving out of mud.
These vehicles, however, are not designed for off-road use,
and are unsuitable for driving on bumpy ground that may
cause excessive strain. Full-time 4WD vehicles should be
driven only under the same conditions as are suitable for ordi-
nary front-wheel drive vehicles.For vehicles with electronically controlled 4WD
systemElectronically controlled 4WD system vehicles are propelled
by engine power distributed constantly and appropriately to all
4 wheels.
Not only does this ensure enhanced handling on dry, paved
roads but also permits better traction when driving on slippery,
wet or snow-covered roads and when moving out of mud.
These vehicles, however, are not designed for off-road use,
and are unsuitable for driving on bumpy ground that may
cause excessive strain. Electronically controlled 4WD system
vehicles should be driven only under the same conditions as
are suitable for ordinary front-wheel drive vehicles.
Turning sharp cornersWhen turning a sharp corner in “4WD LOCK” position at low
speed, a slight difference in steering may be experienced simi-
lar to feeling as if the brakes were applied. This is called tight
corner braking and results from each of the four tires being at a
different distance from the corner. The phenomenon is typical
of 4-wheel drive vehicles. If this occurs, either straighten out
the steering wheel, or change to “2WD” or “4WD AUTO”
mode.On snowy or icy roadsSet the drive mode-selector to “4WD AUTO” or “4WD
LOCK” in accordance with the road conditions, and then grad-
ually depress the accelerator pedal for a smooth start.NOTEThe use of snow tires is recommended.
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, avoid sudden
braking, and use engine braking (downshifting).
CAUTION
!Avoid sudden braking, sudden acceleration, and
sharp turning. Skidding occurs and control of the
vehicle could be lost.

Moving out of mudSet the drive mode-selector to “4WD LOCK” and then gradu-
ally depress the accelerator pedal for a smooth start.
Keep the pressure on the accelerator pedal as constant as possi-
ble, and drive at low speed.
NOTEAvoid sudden braking, sudden acceleration and sharp
turning; such operations could result in the vehicle
becoming stuck.
If the vehicle becomes stuck in muddy roads, it can often
be moved with a rocking motion. Move the selector lever
alternately between “D” (DRIVE) and “R” (REVERSE)
positions, while pressing lightly on the accelerator pedal.Climbing/descending sharp gradesYour vehicle may not provide sufficient hill climbing ability
and engine braking on steep slopes. Avoid driving on steep
slopes even though the vehicle is a 4-wheel drive vehicle.
CAUTION
!If any of the following conditions occur, follow these
procedures:
• The engine coolant temperature display
appears on the information screen in the multi-
information display or the engine power drops
suddenly.
Refer to “Engine overheating” on page 6-5.
• The “ ” warning display or the “ ” warning
display appear on the information screen in the
multi-information display.
Refer to “Warning display” on page 3-104.WA R N I N G
!When attempting to rock your vehicle out of a stuck
position, be sure that the area around the vehicle is
clear of people and physical objects. The rocking
motion may cause the vehicle to suddenly launch
forward/backward, causing injury or damage to
nearby people or objects.

CAUTION
!Do not tow all-wheel drive vehicles with the front or
rear wheels on the ground (Type A or Type B) as
illustrated. This could result in damage to the driv-
etrain, or unstable towing.
If you tow all-wheel drive vehicles, use Type C or

Even in “2WD” mode, the vehicle cannot be towed
with the front or the rear wheels on the ground.
