The emergency trunk lid release is designed to provide a way to open the trunk lid from inside the trunk. It was developed to help pre-vent death and serious
injuries to children
who might become locked inside a vehicle trunk. The emergency trunk lid release lever (see illustration) is mounted on the trunk lid. The lever glows in the dark after exposure to sunlight. You and your family should familiarize your- selves with the location and operation of theemergency trunk lid release lever. Children should be taught not to play in or around vehicles.
To open the trunk from the inside, move the lever (A) in the direction of the arrow on thelever. Push up on the trunk lid to open the trunk and climb out.
NOTE
 The trunk area light comes on when the trunk lid is opened, and goes out
when it is closed.
To close
CAUTIONBe careful to preven
t catching anyone’s fin-
gers when closing the trunk lid. Before starting the vehi
cle, be sure to con-
firm that the trunk lid is closed. If the trunk lid opens while driving the vehicle, objects stored in the trunk could fall out onto theroad.

WA R N I N G Children should never be left unsuper- vised in or ar
ound vehicles.
Unsupervised children could lock them- selves in an open vehicle or trunk. People trapped inside a vehicle or trunk, even if only for a short period of time, can quickly die from suffocation or heatstroke, especially on
hot days. Interior
temperatures in vehicles can rise in min- utes. Keep your vehicle d
oors locked and the

Wind buffeting can be described as the per-ception of pressure on the ears or a booming or rumbling sound. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting when driving with one or bothrear door windows down or partially opened. This is a normal occurrence that can be mini- mized. If the buffeting
occurs with the rear
door windows open, open the front door win- dows as well as the rear door windows to minimize the condition.
WA R N I N G Before driving with a child in the vehicle, be sure to lock the window switch to makeit inoperative. Children tampering withthe switch could easily trap their hands or heads in the window.
Safety mechanism (Driver’s door window of Type 1 only)
WA R N I N G If the battery terminals are disconnected or the fuse for electric window is replaced, the safety mechanism will be cancelled. If a hand or head got
trapped, a serious
injury could result.CAUTION The safety mechanism is deactivated just before the door window closes. This allows the door window to close completely. There- fore be especially care
ful that fingers are not
trapped in the door window opening.
 The safety mechanism is deactivated while the switch is pulled up.
Therefore be espe-
cially careful that fi
ngers are not trapped in
the door window opening. Do not deliberately trap your hands or head in order to activate the safety mechanism. Your hand or head coul
d be trapped and per-
sonal injury could result.NOTE
 The safety mechanism can be activated if the driving conditions or
other circumstances
cause the door window to be subjected to a physical shock similar to that caused by trapped hand or head.  If the safety mechanism is activated 5 or more times in a row, the safety mechanismwill be cancelled a
nd the door window will
not close correctly. In such a case, the
following procedure
should be implemented to rectify this situa- tion. If the window is open,
repeatedly raise the
driver’s door window switch until that win-dow has been fully closed. Following this, release the switch, raise the switch once again and hold it in this condition for atleast1 second, then release it. You should now be able to operate in the normal fashion.CAUTION
 If the battery termin
als are disc
onnected or
the fuse for electric
window is replaced, the
safety mechanism will
be cancelled and the
door window will not
automatically
open/close completely. If the window is open, repeatedly raise thedriver’s door window sw
itch until the win-
dow has been fully closed. Following this, release the switch, raise the switch onceagain and hold it in this
condition for at least
1 second, then release it. You should now be able to operate the driver’s door window inthe normal fashion.

be started from the “P” (PARK) position.
Move the lever to this position only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop. At this position, the transmission is disen- gaged. It is the same
as the neutral position on
a manual transaxle and should be used whenthe vehicle is not m
oving for an extended
length of time during driving, such as in a traffic jam.
This position is used fo
r most city and high-
way driving. The transmission will automati-cally and continuously ch
ange its gear ratio
depending on road and driving conditions. Use when engine braking is needed, or for high-power sport drive.

N00567301116
The brake assist system
is a device assisting
drivers who cannot depress the brake pedalfirmly such as in em
ergency stop situations
and provides greater braking force.
If the brake pedal is depressed suddenly, the brakes will be applied
with more force than
usual.
• On vehicles with ma
nual transaxle, the
gearshift lever is in the following position.[When starting an uphi
ll slope forwards.]
The gearshift lever is in any position other than “R” (Reverse). (The hill start assist will operate, even if thegearshift lever is in the “N” (Neutral) posi- tion.) [When starting an uphill
slope backwards.]
The gearshift lever is in the “R” (Reverse) position. (The hill start assist
will not operate when
the gearshift lever is in the “N” (Neutral) position.) • On vehicles with CVT,
the selector lever is
in any position other than “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL). • The vehicle is comple
tely stationary, with
the brake pedal depressed. • The parking brake is released.  The hill start assist wi
ll not operate if the
accelerator pedal is
depressed before the
brake pedal is released.  The hill start assist also operates when reversing on an uphill slope.  When the hill start a
ssist is activated, you
may feel the operating sound or vibrationfrom under the body. This is a normal result of the hill start assist operation, and does not indicate a problem.NOTE
Warning indicator
-
ASC indicator
CAUTION If the warning is displayed, the hill start assist will not
operate. Start off carefully.
Park your vehicle in a
safe place and stop the
engine.Restart the engine and check whether the indicator goes out, in wh
ich case the hill start
assist is again working normally. If they remain displayed or reappear fre- quently, it is not necessa
ry to stop the vehicle
immediately, but th
e vehicle should be
inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice as s
oon as possible.
Brake assist system
CAUTIONThe brake assist system is not a device designed to exercise
braking force greater
than its capacity. Make
sure to always keep a
sufficient distance be
tween your vehicle and
a vehicle in front of you without relying toomuch on the brake assist system.NOTE
 Once the brake assist system is operational, it maintains great braking force even if the brake pedal is lightly released.To stop its operation, completely remove your foot from the brake pedal.  When the brake assist system is in use while driving, you may feel as if the depressed brake pedal is soft, the pedal moves in smallmotions in conjunction with the operation noise, or the vehicle body and the steering wheel vibrate. This occurs when the brakeassist system is ope
rating normally and does
not indicate faulty
operation. Continue to
depress the brake pedal.  When the anti-lock brake system warning light is illuminated, th
e brake assist system is
not functioning.

N00517900338
The anti-lock braking
system helps prevent
the wheels from locking up when braking. This helps maintain vehicle drivability andsteering wheel handling.  When using the anti-lock brakes (sudden braking), steering is slightly different from normal driving conditions. Use the steering wheel carefully. Always keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you. Even if your vehi- cle is equipped with
the anti-lock braking
system, leave a greater braking distance when: • Driving on gravel or snow-coveredroads. • Driving on uneven road surfaces.  Operation of anti-lock braking system is not restricted situations where brakes are applied suddenly. Th
is system may also
prevent the wheels from locking whenyou drive over manholes, steel roadwork plates, road markings
, or any uneven road
surface.
 When the anti-lock braking system is in use, you may feel the brake pedal vibrat-ing and hear a unique
sound. It may also
feel as if the pedal
resists being pressed.
In this situation, simply hold the brakepedal down firmly. Do not pump the brake, which will result in reduced braking performance.
N00531600674
If there is a malfunction in the system, the anti-lock braking system warning light will come on.Under normal conditions, the ABS warning light comes on when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the operationmode is put in ON and goes off a few seconds later.
Anti-lock braking system Driving hints
CAUTION The anti-lock braking system cannot prevent accidents. It is your
responsibility to take
safety precautions a
nd to drive carefully.
To prevent failure of the anti-lock braking system, be sure all 4 wheels and tires are the same size and the same type.NOTE
 You may feel the ope
rating sound or vibra-
tion from under the body when driving immediately after starti
ng the engine. This is
a normal result the an
ti-lock braking system
makes when performing a self-check. It does not indicate a problem.  The anti-lock braking system can be used after the vehicle has
reached a speed over
approximately 6 mph (10 km/h). It stops working when the vehicle slows below 3mph (5 km/h).
Anti-lock braking system warn- ing light
CAUTION Any of the following i
ndicates that the anti-
lock braking system is not functioning andonly the standard brake system is working. (The standard brake
system is functioning
normally.) If this happens, take your vehicleto an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility
of your choice.
