Always use care to change the gear with the vehicle speed matched to the engine speed. Proper shifting will improve fuel economyand prolong engine life.
N00512901154
For the best fuel economy and performance inusing your manual transaxle, upshift as listedbelow. At low altitude locations, upshift as listed below. At high altitude locations, upshift as listed below.
NOTE
During cold weather, shifting may be diffi- cult until the transaxle lubricant has warmed up. This is normal and not harmful to the transaxle.
To start
CAUTION Do not move the gearshift lever into reverse while the vehicle is moving forward; doing so will damage the transaxle. Do not rest your foot on the clutch pedal because this will cause premature clutch wear or damage. Do not coast in the “N” (Neutral) position (illegal in many states). Do not use the gearshift lever as a handrest, because this can result in premature wear of the transaxle shift forks.NOTE
If it is hard to shift into 1st, depress the clutch pedal a second time; the shift will then be easier.
To shift into reverse from 5th gear, move the gearshift lever to the “N” (Neutral) position, and then shift it into reverse. The gearshift indicator shows recommended gearshift points for fuel-efficient driving. It shows a “ ” when an upshift is recom- mended, and it shows a “ ” when a down- shift is recommended.
Proper shift points
CAUTION Avoid downshifting that may cause the tachometer pointer to enter the red zone. This puts the engine at risk of being dam-aged.NOTE

It is recommended that you downshift to a lower gear when needed to maintain thedesired speed, according to the table. Avoid downshifting at too high a speed. The engine may suffer damage.To maintain a safe speed and prolong brake life, shift down to 2nd or 1st when descend- ing a steep hill.Downshifting is also important to avoid “lug-ging” the engine at too low a speed, such as when turning a corner or when driving up a steep hill.
N00513100228
Do not use the gearshift lever as a han- drest. This can result in premature wear ofthe transaxle shift forks.
The table above shows the maximum rec- ommended driving speed for in each gear. Do not drive near or at these speeds for prolonged periods of time.
N00560200047
The CVT will automatically and continuouslychange its gear ratio depending on road anddriving conditions. This helps achieve smooth driving and excellent fuel efficiency. Also you can manually shift up and shift
down the transmission. Refer to “Sports mode” on page 5-55. 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 ratio to achieve stronger engine braking. This may help reduce your need to use the servicebrake.
N00560300048
As an additional safe
ty precaution, models
equipped with a continuously variable trans- mission have a shift-lock device that holds the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) position.To move the selector lever from the “P” (PARK) position to another position, follow the steps below. 1. Press and hold the brake pedal down. 2. Move the selector lever to the desired position.

If the ambient temperature is low, the selector lever position display on the multi-informa- tion display may blink when the selector lever is placed in the “D” (DRIVE) or “R”(REVERSE) position immediately after the engine has been started. This indicates that the transmission requires warming up. Whilethe display is blinking, the vehicle will not move, because the transmission keeps disen- gaging until the warm up is completed even ifthe selector lever is placed in the “D” or “R” position. When the selector lever position display is blinking, perform the following procedure: 1. Depress the brake pedal with your right foot and place the selector lever in the “N” (NEUTRAL) position for several seconds.

Move the lever to this position only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop. At this position, the transmission is disen- gaged. It is the same as the neutral position ona manual transaxle and
should be used when
the vehicle is not moving for an extended length of time during driving, such as in atraffic jam.
This position is used for most city and high- way driving. The transmission will automati- cally and continuously change its gear ratio depending on road and driving conditions.
N00560701078
Whether the vehicle is stationary or inmotion, sports mode is selected by pushingthe selector lever from the “D” (DRIVE) position into the manual gate (A). To return
to “D” (DRIVE) operation, push the selector lever back into the main gate (B). In sports mode, rapid sh
ifting is possible sim-
ply by operating the selector lever or spor-tronic steering wheel paddle shifter. Unlike the manual transaxle, sports mode allows shifting with the accelerator pedaldepressed.
“R” REVERSE
CAUTION Never shift into the “P” (PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position while the vehicle is inmotion. If the lever is shifted into the “P” (PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in motion, the transmissionmay be damaged.
“N” NEUTRAL
WA R N I N G Never move the selector lever to the “N” (NEUTRAL) position while driving since you could accidentally slip it into the “P”(PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position, damaging the transmission.
To prevent the vehicle from rolling when stopped on a slope, the engine should be started in the “P” (PARK) position, not in “N” (NEUTRAL) position. To prevent rolling, always keep your foot on the brake pedal when the vehicle is in “N” (NEUTRAL) position, or when shift-ing into or out of “N” (NEUTRAL) posi- tion.
“D” DRIVE
CAUTION To prevent transmission damage, never shift into the “D” (DRIVE) position from the “R” (REVERSE) position while the vehicle is inmotion.

NOTE
For vehicles equipped with the sportronic steering wheel paddle shifter, sports mode can be operated even when the selector leveris in the main gate (B). Also, you can return to the “D” operation in any of following ways. When returning to “D” operation, theselector lever position display will change to “D” (DRIVE) position. • Pull the + (SHIFT UP) side sportronic steering wheel paddle shifter forward (toward the driver) for over 2 seconds. • Stop the vehicle • Push the selector lever from the “D” (DRIVE) position into the manual gate (A) and push the selector lever back into themain gate (B).

SHIFT DOWN SHIFT UP
SHIFT DOWN
CAUTION In sports mode, the driver must execute upward shifts in accordance with prevailing road conditions, taking care to keep the engine speed below the red zone. Repeated continuous operation of the selec- tor lever or the sportronic steering wheel paddle shifter will continuously switch shiftposition. On vehicles with a sportronic steering wheel paddle shifter, shift ranges may not change when the lateral paddle shifters are operated at the same time.NOTE
The upward shift may be made automatically in sports mode when the engine revolutions rises and approaches the tachometer’s redzone (the red-colored part of the tachometer dial). Shift ranges can only be selected in a for- ward direction from 1st to 6th. To reverse or park the vehicle, move the selector lever tothe “R” or “P” position.
To maintain good running performance, the transmission may refuse to perform an upshift when the selector lever or sportronic steering wheel paddle shifter is moved to the “+ (SHIFT UP)” position at certain vehiclespeeds. Also, to prevent over-revving of the engine, the transmission may refuse to per- form a downshift when the shift lever orsportronic steering wheel paddle shifter is moved to the “- (SHIFT DOWN)” position at certain vehicle speeds. When this happens, abuzzer sounds to indicate that a downshift is not going to take place. In sports mode, downward shifts are made automatically when the vehicle slows down. When the vehicle stops, 1st position is auto-matically selected.

To gain extra acceleration in “D” (DRIVE) position (when passing another vehicle) push the accelerator to the floor. The CVT will automatically downshift.
For short waiting periods, such as at traffic lights, the vehicle can be left in selector leverposition and held stationary with the service brake. For longer waiting periods with the enginerunning, place the selector lever in the “N” (NEUTRAL) position and apply the parking brake, while holding the vehicle stationarywith the service brake. Prior to moving off after having stopped the vehicle, make sure that the selector lever is in“D” (DRIVE) position or Sports mode posi- tion.
Operation of the CVT
CAUTION Before selecting a position with the engine running and the vehicle stationary, firmly depress the brake pedal to prevent the vehi- cle from creeping.The vehicle will begin to move as soon as the CVT is engaged, especially when the engine speed or idle speed is high, or with the airconditioning operating. Do not release the brake pedal until you are ready to drive away. Depress the brake pedal
with the right foot at
all times.Using the left foot could cause driver move- ment delay in case of an emergency. To prevent sudden acceleration, never run the engine at high rpms when shifting from the “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL).Type 1 Type 2
Operating the accelerator pedal while the other foot is resting on the brake pedal will affect braking efficiency and may cause pre- mature wear of brake pads. Use the selector lever in the correct shift position in accordance with driving condi- tions.Never coast downhill backward in the driv- ing shift position {“D” (DRIVE) or sport mode} or coast forward in the “R”(REVERSE) position. Engine stopping and increased brake pedal and steering effort could lead to an accident. Do not rev the engine with the brake pedal pressed when the vehicle is stationary.This can damage the CVT. Also, when you depress the accelerator pedal while holding down the brake pedal with theselector lever in the “D” (DRIVE) position, the engine revolutions may not rise as high as when performing the same operation withthe selector lever in the “N” (NEUTRAL) position.
Passing acceleration
CAUTION
NOTE
In sports mode, downshifts do not take place when the accelerator is depressed all the way to the floor.
Waiting
CAUTION To avoid transmission overheating, never try to keep your vehicle stationary on a hill by using the accelerator pedal. Always apply the parking brake and/or service brake. Do not rev the engine unnecessarily while the vehicle is stationary. Unexpected acceler-ation may occur if the selector lever is in a position other than “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL).

N00530601195
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.
CAUTION If the selected drive mode indicator is blink- ing, the vehicle switches automatically to front-wheel drive in order to protect the drive-system components, and drive mode selection is no longer possible with the drivemode-selector. The warning display is also displayed in the information screen in the multi-informationdisplay. Reduce speed, and if the indicator goes out after driving a while, resume driving asbefore. If the indicator continues blinking for more than about 5 minutes, have the vehicle inspected at an authorized Mitsubishi Motorsdealer or a repair fa
cility of your choice as
soon as possible.
Type 1 Type 2
CAUTION The warning display on the information screen in the multi-information display, a problem has occurred with the electronically controlled 4WD system and the safety device has activated. Have an inspection made byan authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice as soon as pos- sible.
Type 1 Type 2
CAUTION Always use tires of the same size, type, and brand that have no wear differences. Using tires that differ in size, type, brand, or wearamount may activate the protection of the drive-system components, causing the drive mode in “4WD AUTO” mode to lock or the“4WD” and “LOCK” indicators to blink alternately.

When turning a sharp corner in “4WD LOCK” position at low speed, a slight differ- ence in steering may be experienced similarto feeling as if the brakes were applied. This
is called tight corner braking and results from each of the four tires being at a different dis- tance from the corner. The phenomenon is typical of 4-wheel drive vehicles. If thisoccurs, either straighten out the steering wheel or change to another mode. Set the drive mode-selector to “4WD AUTO” conditions, and then gradually depress the accelerator pedal for a smooth start.
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 instructio
ns and guidelines in
the 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” position to drive on dry paved roadwill increase fuel consumption, with possible noise generation.
Turning sharp corners
NOTE
On snowy or icy roads
NOTE
The use of snow tires is recommended. Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, avoid sudden braking, and use engine brak- ing (downshifting).CAUTION Avoid sudden braking, sudden acceleration and sharp turning. Skidding occurs and con- trol of the vehicle could be lost.
