To park the vehicle, fi
rst bring it to a com-
plete stop, fully engage the parking brake, and then move the sele
ctor lever to the “P”
(PARK) position. If the transaxle does not change gears while driving, or your vehicle does not pick upenough speed when starting on an uphill slope, it may be that there is something unusual happening in the
transaxle, causing a
safety device to activa
te. Have your vehicle
checked at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair fac
ility of your choice as
soon as possible.

The CVT will automati
cally and continuously
change its gear ratio depending on road anddriving conditions. This helps achieve smooth driving and excellent fuel efficiency. Also you can manually shift up and shiftdown the transmission. Refer to “Sports mode” on page 5-72. The transmission prevents unnecessary upshifts even when the accelerator pedal is released and ensures smooth driving.
According to the conditions, the transmission will automatically shift to a lower gear ratio to achieve stronger engine braking. This mayhelp reduce your need
to use the service
brake.
N00560301061
As an additional safe
ty precaution, models
equipped with a continuously variable trans-mission have a shift-lock device that holds the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) position. To move the selector lever from the “P”(PARK) position to another position, follow the steps below. 1. Press and hold the brake pedal down. 2. Move the selector lever to the desiredposition.
Do not rev the engine unnecessarily while the vehicle is stationary. Unexpected acceler-ation may occur if the se
lector lever is in a
position other than “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL).

This position locks the transmission to pre- vent the vehicle from m
oving. The engine can
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.
After a while, confirm that the warning display is no longer show
ing. It is safe to
continue driving if the display is no longer showing. If the warn
ing display remains or
flashes frequently,
have your vehicle
inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice. [When warning di
splay is showing]
It may be that ther
e is something unusual
happening in the CVT, causing a safety device to activate
. Have your vehicle
inspected by an authorized MitsubishiMotors dealer or a repair facility of your choice as soon
as possible.
Selector lever positions
“P” PARK
“R” REVERSE
CAUTION
CAUTIONNever shift into the “P” (PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position while the vehicle is inmotion. If the lever is shifted into the “P”(PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in motion, the transmission may be damaged.
“N” NEUTRAL
WA R N I N G Never move the selector lever to the “N” (NEUTRAL) position while driving since you could accidentally slip it into the “P”(PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position, damaging the transmission. To prevent the vehicle from rolling when stopped on a slope,
the engine should be
started in the “P” (PARK) position, not in “N” (NEUTRAL) position.
To prevent rolling, always keep your foot on the brake pedal when the vehicle is in“N” (NEUTRAL) positi
on, or when shift-
ing into or out of “N” (NEUTRAL) posi- tion.
“D” DRIVE
CAUTION To prevent transmission damage, never shift into the “D” (DRIVE) position from the “R” (REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in motion.

This position is for driving up very steep hills and for engine braking at low speeds when driving down steep hills.

While the vehicle is stopped or being driven with the selector lever in the “D” (DRIVE) or “L” (LOW) pos
ition manual shifting can be
selected by pulling one of the shift paddles towards you.
+ (SHIFT UP) Transmission shifts up once by each opera-tion. - (SHIFT DOWN) Transmission shifts down once by each oper- ation.
“L” LOW
WA R N I N G This position can be used for maximum engine braking. Be very careful not to shift into “L” (LOW) suddenly.Sudden engine brak
ing may cause the
tires to skid. Select this position according to the roadconditions and vehicle speed.
Sports mode (For vehicles equipped with paddle shift)
NOTE
For vehicles equipped
with the sportronic
steering wheel paddle sh
ifter, sports mode
can be operated even wh
en the selector lever
is in the “D” (DRIVE) or “L” (LOW) posi- tion. Also, you can return to the “D” opera- tion in any of following ways. Whenreturning to “D” operati
on, the selector lever
position display will ch
ange to “D” (DRIVE)
position. •Pull the +(SHIFT UP)
side sportronic steer-
ing wheel paddle shifter forward (towardthe driver) for over 2 seconds. • Stop the vehicle When the paddle shifter is operated with the selector lever in th
e “L” (LOW) position,
gear is not shifted because the selectable shift range is limited.
SHIFT UP
SHIFT DOWN
CAUTION Upward shifts do not take place automati- cally in sports mode. The driver must make upward shifts in accordance with prevailing road conditions, making sure the engine rpmremains below the red zone on the tachome- ter. Repeated continuous op
eration of the selec-
tor lever or the spor
tronic steering wheel
paddle shifter will cont
inuously switch shift
position. On vehicles with a s
portronic steering wheel
paddle shifter, shift ranges may not change when the lateral paddle shifters are operated at the same time.NOTE
Shift ranges can only be
selected in a for-
ward direction from 1st to 6th. To reverse orpark the vehicle, move
the selector lever to
the “R” or “P” position.
