NOTEYou can adjust to 8 different levels for when the parking
lights or headlights are illuminated and 8 for when they
are not.
Each time you reduce two brightness levels, the segment
display of the brightness level decreases one by one.
If you press and hold the switch for longer than about 1
second, the brightness automatically scrolls through its
different levels, and stops scrolling when you release the
switch. Select your desired level of brightness.
The brightness level of the instruments is stored when the
ignition switch is turned to the “OFF” position or the
operation mode is put in OFF.
Driving range display
N00575200016
This displays the approximate driving range (how many more
miles or kilometers you can drive). When the driving range
falls below approximately 30 miles (50 km), “---” is displayed.NOTEThe driving range is determined based on the fuel con-
sumption data. This may vary depending on the driving
conditions and habits. Treat the distance displayed as just
a rough guideline.
When you refuel, the driving range display is updated.
However, if you only add a small amount of fuel, the cor-
rect value will not be displayed. Fill to a full tank when-
ever possible.
When your vehicle is stopped on an extremely steep hill,
the driving range value may, change. This is due to the
movement of fuel in the tank and does not indicate any
breakdown.
The display setting can be changed to the preferred units
(miles or km).
Refer to “Changing the function settings” on page 3-105.

not be measured.
The initial (default) setting is “Auto reset mode”.
Average fuel consumption may vary depend on the driv-
ing conditions (road conditions, how you drive, etc.).
The actual fuel consumption may differ from the fuel con-
sumption displayed, so treat the fuel consumption dis-
played as just a rough guideline.
Disconnecting the battery cable will erase from memory
the manual reset mode or auto reset mode setting for the
average fuel consumption display.
The display setting can be changed to the preferred units
{mpg, km/L, L/100 km}.

Engine malfunction indicator (“SERVICE
ENGINE SOON” or “Check engine light”)
N00520500804
This indicator is a part of the onboard diagnostic (OBD) sys-
tem which monitors the emissions, engine control system or
continuously variable transmission (CVT) control system. If a
problem is detected in one of these systems, this indicator illu-
minates or flashes. When the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position or the operation mode is put in ON, this indica-
tor normally comes on and goes off after the engine has started.
This indicator will come on if the fuel tank filler cap is not
properly tightened. If this indicator comes on and stays on after
refueling, stop the engine and check that the cap is properly
tightened. (Turn the cap clockwise until you hear clicking
sounds.)
If this indicator does not go off after several seconds or lights
up while driving, have the system checked as soon as possible
at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of
your choice.
NOTEDo not disconnect the battery cable when the engine mal-
function indicator (“SERVICE ENGINE SOON” or
“Check engine light”) is on.
The engine electronic control module stores critical OBD
information (especially exhaust emission data), which
may be lost if the battery cable is disconnected while the
engine malfunction indicator is on. This will make it diffi-
cult to diagnose the cause of future problems.
CAUTION
!Driving for a long time with the engine malfunction
indicator on may cause more damage to the emission
control system. This could also affect fuel economy
and drivability.If this indicator does not come on when the ignition
switch is turned to the “ON” position or the opera-
tion mode is put in ON, 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 at high speeds.
During vehicle operation with the indicator on, the
vehicle may not accelerate when you depress the
accelerator pedal.
When the vehicle is stationary with the indicator on,
you must depress the brake pedal more firmly than
usual since the engine idling speed is higher than
usual and a vehicle with a CVT has a stronger ten-
dency to creep forward.
