Your vehicle has been designed primarily for use on pavement.But its unique 4 -wheel drive system allows you to occasionally travel on unpaved roads, to campgrounds, picnic sites, and similarlocations. Not only does this ensure better handling on dry, paved roads but also permits better trac-tion when driving on slippery, wet or snow-covered roads and when moving out of mud. But it is not suitable for heavy off road use or towing in rough conditions.It is particularly important to note that 4- wheel drive may not give sufficient hill climbing ability and engine braking on steepslopes. You should try to avoid driving on steep slopes. Also, you must exercise caution when drivingon sand and mud and when driving through water because sufficient traction may not be available in certain circumstances.Please avoid driving the vehicle through areas where the tires may get stuck in deep sand or mud.
When turning a sharp corner in “4WD LOCK” or “LOCK” position at low speed, a slight difference in steering may be experi-enced similar to feeling
as if the brakes were
4-wheel drive operation
WA R N I N GDo not over-rely on the 4-wheel drive vehi- cles. Even 4-wheel drive vehicles have lim- its to the system and ability to maintain control and traction. Reckless driving may lead to accidents. Always drive carefully,taking account of the road conditions. Improperly operating this vehicle on or off-pavement can cause an accident or rollover in which you and your passengers could be seriously injured or killed.• Follow all instructions and guidelines inthe owner’s manual.• Keep your speed low and do not drivefaster than conditions.NOTE
 Driving on rough roads can be hard on a vehicle. Before you leave the pavement, be sure all scheduled maintenance and servicehas been done, and that you have inspected your vehicle. Pay special attention to the condition of the tires, and check the tire pres-sures.  Mitsubishi Motors is not responsible to the operator for any damage or injury caused or liability incurred by improper and negligentoperation of a vehicle. All techniques of vehicle operation depend on the skill and experience of the operator and other partici-pating parties. Any deviation from the rec- ommended operating instructions above is at their own risk.
 Note that the stopping distance required of the 4-wheel drive vehicle differs very little from that of the front-wheel drive vehicle. When driving on a snow-covered road or a slippery, muddy surface, make sure that youkeep a sufficient distance between your vehi- cle and the one ahead of you.  The driving posture should be more upright; adjust the seat to a good position for easy steering and pedal operation. Be sure to wearthe seat belt.  After driving on rough roads, check each part of the vehicle and wash it thoroughly with water. Refer to the “Inspection and maintenance following rough road opera-tion” section and “Vehicle care and Mainte- nance” sections.CAUTION Setting the drive mode-selector to “4WD LOCK” or “LOCK” position to drive on drypaved road will increase fuel consumption, with possible noise generation.

While driving, the momentary fuel consump- tion is shown with a bar graph. When the momentary fuel consumption sur-passes the average fuel consumption, the momentary fuel consumption is displayed with a green bar graph. (Type 2)Be conscious of maintaining the momentary fuel consumption above the average fuel con- sumption, it can help you drive with the betterfuel consumption.
The “Display language”, “Temperature unit”, “Fuel consumption unit”, and “Average fuelconsumption and speed reset method” set- tings can be modified as desired. For further details, refer to “Changing thefunction settings (With ignition switch or operation mode in ON)” on page 5-96.

When there is information to be announced, such as a system fault, a tone sounds and the
information screen is switched to the warning display screen. Refer to the warning list and take the neces- sary measures. Refer to “Warning display list(With ignition switch or operation mode in ON)” on page 5-108. When the cause of the warning display iseliminated, the warning display goes out automatically. Even if the cause of the warning display is not eliminated, you can return to the screenthat was displayed before the warning dis- play. If you press the multi-information meter switch, the display screen switches to thescreen display from before the warning and the warning (A) is displayed.
 Disconnecting the battery cable will erase from memory the manual reset mode or auto reset mode setting for the average fuel con- sumption display.  The display setting can be changed to the preferred units {mpg(US), mpg(UK), L/100km or km/L}.Refer to “Changing the function settings (With ignition switch or operation mode in ON)” on page 5-96.

NOTE
 When the momentary fuel consumption can- not be measured, a bar graph is not shown.NOTE
 The display setting can be changed to the preferred units {mpg(US), mpg(UK), L/100km or km/L}. Refer to “Changing the function settings (With ignition switch or operation mode inON)” on page 5-96.  It is possible to cancel the green bar graph.
