Your vehicle has seat
belts and other safety
features that help protect you and your pas- sengers in an accident.Seat belts are the most important safety device. When worn properly, seat belts can reduce the chance of serious injury or deathin various types of crashes. For added protec- tion during a severe fr
ontal collision, your
vehicle has a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) with airbags for the driver and passen- gers. The seats, head restraints, and doorlocks also are safety equipment, which must be used correctly. Always check the following before you drive: That everyone in your vehicle is properly wearing their seat belt. That infants and small children are prop- erly secured in an appropriate child restraint system in the rear seat. That all doors are fully closed and locked.  That seatbacks are upright, with head restraints properly adjusted.
Safety equipment cannot prevent injury or death in all motor ve
hicle accidents. How-
ever, you can help reduce the risk of injury or death, by following the instructions in thismanual.
N00401801426
Position the driver’s seat
as far back as possi-
ble while maintaining a position that stillenables you to fully apply the pedals, easily control the steering wh
eel and safely operate
the vehicle.
Seats and restraint systems
WA R N I N G Do not place objects under the seats. This could prevent the seat from lockingsecurely, and it could
lead to an accident.
It may also cause damage to the seat or other parts.
Front seats
WA R N I N G Do not attempt to adjust the seat while driving. This can cause loss of vehicle con- trol and result
in an accident.
Manual seat adjustment Power seat adjustment
After adjusting the seat, make sure that it is securely locked into position. To reduce the risk to the driver of serious injury or death duri
ng deployment of the
driver’s airbag, always
properly wear the
seat belt and adjust th
e driver’s seat as far
back as possible while maintaining a posi- tion that still enables
you to fully apply the
pedals, easily control the steering wheel, and safely operate the vehicle. To reduce the risk to the front passenger of serious injury or
death during deploy-
ment of the passeng
er’s airbag, always
properly wear the seat
belt and adjust the
front passenger’s seat as far back as possi- ble. Always place childr
en 12 years old and
under in the rear seat
and use appropriate
child restraint systems.CAUTION Make sure that the seat is adjusted by an adult. If it is adjusted by a child, an unex- pected accident might occur. Do not place a cushion
or the like between
your back and the seatback while driving. The effectiveness of the head restraints will be reduced in the event of an accident. When sliding the seat
s, be careful not to
catch your hand or leg.WA R N I N G

The Differential assembly that limits the front left-right differential
speed by operating elec-
tronic control clutch arranged in the transfer assembly. The left-right differen
tial limiting function is
a function that enhanc
es driving performance
and vehicle stability by preventing idle spin- ning of a wheel when driving on slippery road or when the road surfaces of left and right wheels are different. The yaw control function is a function that enhances vehicle corn
ering performance and
vehicle stability with
management of vehicle
turning power (yaw moment) by controlling the drive power difference of the left andright wheels and the braking force when the vehicle does not turn
in response to steering
input, such as when the steering wheel isturned quickly or when driving on slippery road.

Select the drive mode from the following four types to suit the driving conditions.
4-wheel drive operation requires special driv- ing skills. Carefully read the “4-wheel drive operation”section on page 5-88 and take care to drive safety.

AW C E C O
This is the most fuel efficient mode. Normal operation is in 2WD, but 4WD performance will be provided under slippery conditions.
NORMAL
This mode can be used on both dry and wet roads. The distri- bution of driving/braking torque to each wheel is auto- matically controlled according to the driving condition.
SNOW
This mode is for driving on slippery road surfaces, such as snow-covered roads.
LOCK
This mode is for driving where maximum traction is required. This mode is suitable for driv-ing on rough roads or driving in mud, sand or fresh snow.

Avoid hard braking and high-speed driving. Stop the vehicle in a safe place and contact anauthorized Mitsubishi Mo
tors dealer or repair
facility of your choice.
N00529201090
After driving on snow or icy roads, remove any snow and ice which may have be leftaround the wheels. On vehicles that have an anti-lock braking syst
em, be careful not to
damage the wheel spee
d sensors (A) or the
cables located at each wheel.
N00568401084
The power steering system operates while the engine is running. It helps reduce the effort needed to turn the steering wheel.The power steering sy
stem has mechanical
steering capability in case the power assist is lost. If the power assist is lost for some rea-son, you will still be able to steer your vehi- cle, but you will notice it takes much more effort to steer. If this happens, have your vehi- cle inspected at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of yourchoice.

WA R N I N G Do not stop the engine while the vehicle is moving. Stopping the engine would make the steering wheel extremely hard to turn, possibly resulting
in an ac
cident.
NOTE
During repeated full-lock turning of the steering wheel (for example, while you aremanoeuvring the vehicle into a parkingspace), a protection f
unction may be acti-
vated to prevent overheating of the power steering system. This f
unction will make the
steering wheel graduall
y harder to turn. In
this event, limit your turning of the steering wheel for a while. When the system hascooled down, the steering effort will return to normal.  If you turn the steering wheel while the vehi- cle is stationary with the headlights on, the headlights may become
dim. This behavior
is not abnormal. The he
adlights will return to
their original brightness after a short while.
