If an abnormal condition occurs in the sys-tem, the following disp
lay/indicator will turn
on.Warning display
N00546301070
CAUTIONWhen display/indicator blinks, ASC isoperating, which means that the road is slip-pery or that your vehi
cle’s wheels are begin-
ning to slip. If this happens, drive slower.If the temperature in the braking system con-tinues to increase due
to continuous brake
control on a slippery
road surface, the
indicator will blink.To prevent the brake system from overheat-ing, the brake control
of the traction control
function will be tem
porarily suspended.
The engine control of the traction controlfunction and normal brake operation will notbe affected.Park your vehicle in a safe place. When thetemperature in the braking system has comedown, the indicator will be turned off andthe traction control func
tion will start operat-
ing again.NOTE
The indicator may come on when youstart the engine. This means that the batteryvoltage momentarily dropped when theengine was started. It
does not indicate a
malfunction, provided th
at the display goes
out immediately.
When a spare tire has been put on your vehi-cle, the gripping ability of the tire will belower, making it more likely that the dis-play/indicator will blink.

switch in the “ON” pos
ition or the operation
mode in ON and only the front wheels oronly the rear wheels raised off the ground,the ASC may operate, resulting in an acci-dent. When towing the 2WD vehicle with thefront wheels raised, keep the ignition switchin the “OFF”, “LOCK” or “ACC” position orthe operation mode in ACC or OFF. Whentowing the vehicle with the rear wheelsraised, keep the ignition switch in the “ACC”Refer to “Towing” on page 8-14.

Tire pressure monitoring system
Features and controls 5-139
5
Each tire, including the spare (if provided),should be checked monthly when cold andinflated to the inflation pressure recom-mended by the vehicle manufacturer on thevehicle placard or tire
inflation pressure label.
(If your vehicle has tires of a different sizethan the size indicated on the vehicle placardor tire inflation pressure label, you shoulddetermine the proper ti
re inflation pressure
for those tires.)As an added safety feat
ure, your vehicle has
been equipped with a tire pressure monitoringsystem (TPMS) that illuminates a low tirepressure telltale when
one or more of your
tires is significantly under-inflated.Accordingly, when the low tire pressure tell-tale illuminates, you
should stop and check
your tires as soon as possible, and inflatethem to the proper pressure. Driving on a sig-nificantly under-inflated
tire causes the tire to
overheat and can lead
to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiencyand tire tread life, and may affect the vehi-cle’s handling and stoppi
ng ability. Please
note that the TPMS is
not a substitute for
proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’sresponsibility to
maintain corre
ct tire pres-
sure, even if under-infl
ation has not reached
the level to trigger illumination of the TPMSlow tire pressure telltale.Your vehicle has also
been equipped with a
TPMS malfunction indica
tor to indicate when
the system is not operating properly. TheTPMS malfunction indicator is combinedwith the low tire pressure telltale.When the system detects a malfunction, thetelltale will flash for approximately one min-ute and then remain c
ontinuously illuminated.
This sequence will c
ontinue upon subsequent
vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunctionexists.When the malfunction indicator is illumi-nated, the system may not
be able to detect or
signal low tire pr
essure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions ma
y occur for a variety
of reasons, including the installation ofreplacement or alternate tires or wheels on thevehicle that prevent the TPMS from function-ing properly. Always
check the TPMS mal-
function telltale after
replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure thatthe replacement or alternate tires and wheels
CAUTIONIf the tire pressure monitoring system warn-ing light does not illumi
nate when the igni-
tion switch is turned to the “ON” position orthe operation mode is put in ON, it meansthat the tire pressure monitoring system isnot working properly. Have the systeminspected by an authorized MitsubishiMotors dealer.In such situations, a malfunctioning of thesystem may be preventing the monitoring ofthe tire pressure. Avoid sudden braking,sharp turning and high-speed driving.If a malfunction is detected in the tire pres-sure monitoring system, the tire pressuremonitoring system warning light will blinkfor approximately 1 mi
nute and then remain
continuously illuminate
d. The warning light
will issue further warnings each time theengine is restarted as
long as the malfunction
exists.Check to see whether the warning light goesoff after few minutes driving.If it then goes off during driving, there is noproblem.However, if the warning light does not gooff, or if it blinks again when the engine isrestarted, have the
vehicle inspected by an
authorized Mitsubish
i Motors dealer.
In such situations, a malfunctioning of thesystem may be preventing the monitoring ofthe tire pressure. For safety reasons, whenthe warning light appears while driving,avoid sudden braking, sharp turning andhigh-speed driving.
NOTE
In addition, the warni
ng display is displayed
on the information screen in the multi-infor-mation display.

This indicator is a pa
rt of the onboard diag-
nostic (OBD) system which monitors theemissions, engine control system or auto-matic transaxle control system/continuouslyvariable transmission (CVT) control system.If a problem is detected in one of these sys-tems, this indicator illuminates or flashes.When the ignition switch is turned to the“ON” position or the ope
ration mode is put in
ON, this indicator
normally comes on and
goes off after the engine has started.
This indicator will come on if the fuel tankfiller cap is not properly tightened. If thisindicator comes on and stays on after refuel-ing, stop the engine and check that the cap isproperly tightened. (Turn the cap clockwiseuntil you hear clicking sounds.)If this indicator does not go off after severalseconds or lights up while driving, have thesystem checked as soon as possible at anauthorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or arepair facility of your choice.

Engine malfunction indicator (“SERVICE ENGINE SOON” or “Check engine light”)
CAUTIONDriving for a long time
with the engine mal-
function indicator on may cause more dam-age to the emission control system. Thiscould also affect fuel
economy and drivabil-
ity.If this indicator does not come on when theignition switch is turned to the “ON” posi-tion or the operation mode is put in ON, havethe system checked at an authorized Mitsubi-shi Motors dealer or a repair facility of yourchoice.
If the engine malfuncti
on indicator comes on
while the engine is running, avoid driving athigh speeds.During vehicle operation
with the indicator
on, the vehicle may not
accelerate when you
depress the accelerator pedal.When the vehicle is stat
ionary with the indi-
cator on, you must depress the brake pedalmore firmly than usual since the engineidling speed is higher than usual and a vehi-cle with an automatic transaxle or CVT has astronger tendency to creep forward.NOTE
Do not disconnect the ba
ttery cable when the
engine malfunction i
ndicator (“SERVICE
ENGINE SOON” or “Ch
eck engine light”) is
on.The engine electronic
control module stores
critical OBD informati
on (especially exhaust
emission data), which ma
y be lost if the bat-
tery cable is disconne
cted while the engine
malfunction indicator is
on. This will make it
difficult to diagnose th
e cause of future prob-
lems.
