Wiper operation under th
ese conditions can
scratch the windshield and damage the wip-ers.
If your hands get trapped, you could suffer injuries or the wipers
could malfunction. Be
sure to turn the ignition switch to the “OFF” or “LOCK” position or put the operation mode in OFF, or move the lever to the “OFF”position to deactivate
the rain sensor.
With the lever in the “AUTO” (rain sensor) position, it is possible to adjust the sensitivity of the rain sensor by turning the knob (B).
CAUTION With the ignition switch or the operation mode in ON and the lever in the “AUTO” position, the wipers ma
y automatically oper-
ate in the situati
ons described below.
• When cleaning the outsi
de surface of the
windshield, if you touch the rain sensor.• When cleaning the outsi
de surface of the
windshield, if you wipe with a cloth the rainsensor.• When using an automatic car wash.• A physical shock is
applied to the wind-
shield.• A physical shock is applied to the rain sen-sor.
NOTE
 To protect the rubber parts of the wipers, this operation of the wipers
does not take place
even if the lever is put in the “AUTO” posi- tion when the vehicle is
stationary and the
ambient temperature is
about 32 °F (0 °C) or
lower.  Do not cover the sensor by affixing a sticker or label to the windshield. Also, do not put any water-repellent
coating on the wind-
shield. The rain sensor would not be able todetect the extent of rain, and the wipers might stop working normally.  In the following cases, the rain sensor may be malfunctioning. Have
the vehicle checked
at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer ora repair facility of your choice. • When the wipers operate
at a constant inter-
val despite changes in the extent of rain. • When the wipers do not operate even though it is raining.

further details, refer to the separate owner’smanual.  The washer fluid reser
voir is located in the
engine compartment. Check the fluid level regularly and refill if necessary. (Refer to
“Washer fluid” on page
9-12.)
Precautions to observe when using wipers and washers

NOTE
Do not use the wipers when the windshield is dry. This could scratch the glass and wear thewiper blades prematurely.  Before using the wipe
rs in cold weather,
check to be sure that the wiper blades are notfrozen to the windshield or rear window. Using the wipers while the blades are frozen could cause the wiper motor to burn out.  If the moving wipers
become blocked part-
way through a sweep by ice or other depositson the glass, the wipers may temporarily stop operating to prevent the motor from over- heating. In this case, park the vehicle in asafe place, turn the ignition switch to the “OFF” position or put
the operation mode in
OFF, and then remove the ice or other depos-its. Because the wipers will
start operating again
after the wiper motor cools down, check thatthe wipers operate before using them.  Avoid using the washer for more than 20 sec- onds at a time. Do not operate the washer when the washer fluid reservoir is empty or the pump may fail.  During cold weather, add a recommended washer solution that will not freeze in thewasher fluid reservoir.
Otherwise the washer
may not work or may be damaged.  Replace the wiper blades when they are worn. Use the proper size replacement blades. For further information, please con-tact your authorized
Mitsubishi Motors
dealer.

WA R N I N G Do not use HomeLink
® with any garage
door opener that lacks safety stop and reverse features as required by U.S. Fed- eral Regulations.
A garage door opener
which cannot detect an object in the path of a closing garage d
oor and then auto-
matically stop and reverse, does not meetcurrent U.S. Federal Regulations. Using a garage door opener wi
thout these features
increases the risk of serious injury ordeath. During programming, your garage door or gate may open or close. Make sure that people and objects are clear of the garage door or gate that
you are programming.
NOTE
Once HomeLink
® is programmed, retain the
original transmitter for future programming procedures (for example, new vehicle pur- chases). Upon sale of the vehicle, the pro- grammed HomeLink
® buttons should be
erased for security purposes. Refer to “Cleaning the progra
mmed information” on
page 5-224.
 You can program a maximum of 3 devices. To change or replace
any of the 3 devices

To program a garage door opener equipped with “rolli
ng code protection”;
you will need to access the garage dooropener motor to press the motor’s “Learn” or “Smart” buttons. For convenience, use a ladder and another person to assist you.  It is recommended that a new battery be placed in the hand-held transmitter of the device being programmed to HomeLink
®
for quicker training and accurate trans- mission of the radio-frequency signal.
N00584700020

button. Repeat the
“press/hold/release”
sequence a second tim
e, and, depending
on the brand of the garage door opener(or other rolling code equipped device), repeat this sequence a third time to com- plete the programming
process. At this
point if your device operates, program- ming is complete.
• If the device does not operate, continue with “Programming a new HomeLink
®”
steps 5 to 7 to complete the program- ming of a rolling code equipped device.
5. At the garage door opener receiver(motor-head unit) in the garage, locate the “Learn” or “Smart” but
ton. This can usu-

Canadian radio-frequenc
y laws require trans-
mitter signals to “time-out” (or quit) afterseveral seconds of tr
ansmission - which may
not be long enough for HomeLink
® to pick
up the signal during programming. Similar to this Canadian law, some U.S. gate operators are designed to “time-
out” in the same man-
ner. The indicator LED on the hand-held transmit- ter will go off when the device times out indi-cating that it has fi
nished transmitting.
If you live in Canada or you are having diffi- culties programming a gate operator orgarage door opener by using the “Program- ming” procedures, replace “Programming a new HomeLink
