Display type 1
Display type 2
NOTE

The display may come on when you start the engine.
This means that the battery voltage momentarily dropped
when the engine was started. It does not indicate a mal-
function, provided that the display goes out immediately.


When a spare tire has been put on your vehicle, the grip-
ping ability of the tire will be lower, making it more likely
that the display will blink.
-ASC operation display
When the ASC is operating, the information screen in the
multi-information display will change and the ASC opera-
tion display will blink.
-ASC OFF display
The display is displayed when the ASC has been deac-
tivated with the “ASC OFF” switch.
-ASC indicator (if so equipped)
Indicator blinks when the ASC is operating.
CAUTION
!

When display blinks, ASC is operating, which
means that the road is slippery or that your vehicle’s
wheels are beginning to slip. If this happens, drive
slower.


If the temperature in the braking system continues
to increase due to continuous brake control on a
slippery road surface, the display will blink. To
prevent the brake system from overheating, the
brake control of the traction control function will be
temporarily suspended. The engine control of the
traction control function and normal brake opera-
tion will not be affected. Park your vehicle in a safe
place. When the temperature in the braking system
has come down, the display will be turned off and
the traction control function will start operating
again.

The system may be malfunctioning.
Park your vehicle in a safe place and stop the engine.
Restart the engine again and check whether the
warning display, the display go out. If the warn-
ing display goes out, there is no abnormal condition.

NOTE

The tire pressure monitoring system is not a substitute for
regularly checking tire inflation pressures.
Be sure to check the tire inflation pressures as described in
“Tires” on page 7-29.


Each of the grommets (A) and washers (B) where the tire
inflation pressure sensors (C) are mounted should be
replaced with new ones when the tire is replaced.
For details, contact your authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer.
The tire pressure monitoring system warning
light/display
N00532700265
When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position, the
tire pressure monitoring system warning light normally illumi-
nates and goes off a few seconds later.
If one or more of the vehicle tires (except for the spare tire) is
significantly under-inflated, however, the warning light will
remain illuminated while the ignition switch is in the “ON”
position.
Refer to “If the warning light illuminates while driving” on
page 3-157 and take the necessary measures.NOTE

In addition, the warning display is displayed on the infor-
mation screen in the multi-information display.

NOTE

In addition, the warning display is displayed on the infor-
mation screen in the multi-information display.
CAUTION
!

The tire pressure monitoring system warning light
does not illuminate when the ignition switch is
turned to the “ON” position, it means that the tire
pressure monitoring system is not working properly.
Have the system inspected by an authorized Mitsub-
ishi Motors dealer.
In such situations, a malfunctioning of the system
may be preventing the monitoring of the tire pres-
sure. Avoid sudden braking, sharp turning and
high-speed driving.


If a malfunction is detected in the tire pressure mon-
itoring system, the tire pressure monitoring system
warning light will blink for approximately 1 minute
and then remain continuously illuminated. The
warning light will issue further warnings each time
the engine is restarted as long as the malfunction
exists.
Check to see whether the warning light goes off after
few minutes driving.
If it then goes off during driving, there is no prob-
lem.
However, if the warning light does not go off, or if it
blinks again when the engine is restarted, have the
vehicle inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer.
In such situations, a malfunctioning of the system
may be preventing the monitoring of the tire pres-
sure. For safety reasons, when the warning light
appears while driving, avoid sudden braking, sharp
turning and high-speed driving.

If the warning light illuminates while driving
N00532800309
1. If the tire pressure monitoring system warning light illu-
minates, avoid hard braking, sharp steering maneuvers
and high speeds. You should stop and adjust the tires to
the proper inflation pressure as soon as possible. Adjust
the spare tire at the same time. Refer to “Tires” on page 7-
29.NOTE

In addition, the warning display is displayed on the infor-
mation screen in the multi-information display.


Once adjustments have been made, the warning light will
go off after a few minutes of driving.
2. If the tire pressure monitoring system warning light
remains illuminated after you have been driving for about
20 minutes after you adjust the tire inflation pressure, one
or more of the tires may have a puncture. Inspect the tire
and if it has a puncture, have it repaired by an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer as soon as possible.
NOTE

To avoid the risk of damage to the tire inflation pressure
sensors, have any punctured tire repaired by an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer. If the tire repair is not done by
an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer, it is not covered
by your warranty.


Do not use an aerosol puncture-repair product on any tire,
as it could damage the tire inflation pressure sensors.
Have any puncture repaired by an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer.
WA R N I N G
!

If the warning light/display illuminates while you
are driving, avoid hard braking, sharp steering
maneuvers and high speeds. Driving with an under-
inflated tire adversely affects vehicle performance
and can result in an accident.
CAUTION
!

If a tire has a puncture, replace that tire with the
spare tire. Driving on a punctured tire could lead to
an accident.


The warning light/display may not illuminate imme-
diately in the event of a tire blowout or rapid leak.

Tachometer
N00519200247
The tachometer shows engine revolutions per minute. This
allows the driver to determine the most efficient shift position
(manual transaxle), selector position {continuously variable
transmission (CVT)} or shift position (Twin Clutch SST) and
engine speed combinations.
This gauge also assists in evaluating engine performance.
Rheostat meter illumination button
N00554900108
Each time you press this button, there is a sound and the bright-
ness of the instruments changes.
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 gearshift position (Twin
Clutch SST) to control the engine speed so that the
tachometer indicator does not enter the red zone.
