 The operation mode can be in any mode to start the engine. The starter motor will be turning for up to approximately 15 seconds if the engine switch is released at once. Pressing the engine switch again while the starter motor is still turning will stop the startermotor. The starter motor will be turning for up to approximately 30 seconds while theengine switch
is pressed.
If the engine does not start, wait for a while and then attempt to start the engineagain. Trying repeatedly with the engine or starter motor still turning will damage the starter mechanism. If the engine will not start because the bat- tery is weak or discharged, refer to “Jump-starting the engine” on page 8-2for instructions.  A longer warm up period will only con- sume extra fuel. The engine is warmed up enough for driv- ing when the bar graph of engine coolanttemperature display starts to move or the low coolant temperature indicator goes out. Refer to “Engine
coolant temperature
display” on page 5-171 or “Low coolant temperature indica
tor” on page 5-215.
Your vehicle is equipped with an electroni- cally controlled fuel injection system. This system automatically controls fuel injection. There is usually no need
to depress the accel-
erator pedal when starting the engine. To prevent battery drai
n, wait a few seconds
between attempts to restart the engine. 1. Make sure all occupants are properly seated with seat belts fastened. 2. Make sure the parking brake is applied. 3. Press and hold the brake pedal downfirmly with your right foot. 4. Make sure the selector
lever is in the “P”
 If there is a fault in the steering wheel lock, the warning display will

the curb on an uphill.
NOTE
You may hear an operation noise from the vehicle body when operating the Electricparking brake. This do
es not indicate a mal-
function and the Elec
tric parking brake is
operating normally.  When the battery is weak or dead, the Elec- tric parking brake cannot be applied or released. Refer to “Jum
p-starting the engine”
on page 8-2.  You may feel the brake pedal moving when operating the Electr
ic parking brake.
This does not indi
cate a malfunction.
To apply

1. Stop the vehicle completely. 2. Pull up the Electric parking brake switch
while depressing the brake pedal.
CAUTION While the vehicle is in motion, do not apply the Electric parking
brake. Doing so may
cause overheating and/or
premature wear of
brake parts, reducing brake performance. NOTE
 If the Electric parking
brake must be applied
in an emergency situa
tion, pull and hold the

This position is used for most city and high- way driving. The transaxle will automatically change its gear depe

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

While the vehicle is stopped or being drivenwith the selector lever in the “D” (DRIVE) or “L” (LOW) position, sports mode can be selected by pulling one of the sportronicsteering wheel paddle shifter towards you. In sports mode, rapid shifting is possible sim- ply by operating the spor
tronic steering wheel
paddle shifter. Unlike the manual transaxle, sports mode allows shifting with the accelerator pedaldepressed.

In sports mode, the currently selected gear is displayed on the information screen in the multi-information display.
CAUTION In sports mode, the driver must execute upward shifts in accordance with prevailingroad conditions, taking care to keep theengine speed below the red zone. Repeated continuous ope
ration of the spor-
tronic steering wheel pa
ddle shifter will con-
tinuously switch shift position. Gears may not change when the lateral pad- dle shifters are operate
d at the same time.
NOTE
Gears can only be selected in a forward direction from 1st gear to 6th gear. Toreverse or park the vehi
cle, move the selector
lever to the “R” or “P” position.  To maintain good running performance, the transaxle may refuse to perform an upshift when the selector lever is moved to the“+(SHIFT UP)” positi
on at certain vehicle
speeds. Also, to prevent over-revving of the engine, the transaxle may refuse to perform adownshift when the lever is moved to the “

on at certain vehicle
speeds. When this happens, a buzzer soundsto indicate that a dow
nshift is not going to
take place.  Downward shifts are made automatically when the vehicle slow

transaxle, causing a
safety device to activa
te. Have your vehicle
checked at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choiceimmediately.

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. If your vehicle is equipped with the spor- tronic steering wheel paddle shifter, you can manually shift up and shift down the trans-mission. Refer to “Sports mode” on page 5-80. The transmission prevents unnecessary upshifts even when the accelerator pedal is released and ensures smooth driving. According to the condi
tions, the transmission
will automatically shift to a lower gear ratioto achieve stronger engine braking. This may help reduce your need
to use the service
brake.
N00560301090
As an additional safe
ty precaution, models
equipped with a continuously variable trans- mission have a shift-lock device that holdsthe selector lever in the “P” (PARK) position. To move the selector lever from the “P”the steps below. 1. Press and hold the brake pedal down. 2. Move the selector lever to the desiredposition.
The CVT selects an optimum ratio automati- cally when the selector lever is in the “D”
nding on the speed of
the vehicle and the positi
on of the accelerator
pedal.

 When the warning display and “SLOW DOWN” or the warning display and “SERVICE REQUIRED” appear on the information screen in
