Sports mode display
N00538800095
In sports mode, the currently selected gear is displayed on the
information screen in the multi-information display.NOTE

While driving in sports mode, the sports mode display
may change to show “D” and shifting in sports mode may
no longer be possible.
This indicates that controls to drive in the “D” position are
operating normally in order to lower the temperature of
the automatic transaxle fluid; it does not indicate a mal-
function. Once the temperature of the automatic transaxle
fluid drops, shifting in the sports mode will be possible
again.
Operation of the automatic transaxle
N00514500261
CAUTION
!

Before selecting a gear with the engine running and
the vehicle stationary, firmly depress the brake
pedal to prevent the vehicle from creeping.
The vehicle will begin to move as soon as the gear is
engaged, especially when the engine speed or idle
speed is high, or with the air conditioning 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 movement
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).


Operating the accelerator pedal while the other foot
is resting on the brake pedal will affect braking effi-
ciency and may cause premature wear of brake
pads.


Do not rev the engine with the brake pedal pressed
when the vehicle is stationary.
This can damage the transaxle.
Also, when you depress the accelerator pedal while
holding down the brake pedal with the selector lever
in the “D” (DRIVE) position, the engine revolutions
may not rise as high as when performing the same
operation with the selector lever in the “N” (NEU-
TRAL) position.

NOTE

Shift ranges can only be selected in a forward direction
from 1st to 6th. To reverse or park the vehicle, move the
selector lever to the “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 vehicle speeds. Also,
to prevent over-revving of the engine, the transmission
may refuse to perform a downshift when the shift lever or
sportronic steering wheel paddle shifter is moved to the “-
(SHIFT DOWN)” position at certain vehicle speeds.
When this happens, a buzzer sounds to indicate that a
downshift is not going to take place.
Sports mode display
N00560900028
In sports mode, the currently selected shift range is displayed
on the information screen in the multi-information display.


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.CAUTION

!

When the S-AWC control mode display blinks and

heating.
At that time, the drive system of your vehicle is auto-
matically switched to front wheel drive from all
wheel drive. Reduce your speed to cool down the S-
AW C .
After driving for a while, if the S-AWC control
modes display stops blinking and the “SLOW
DOWN” on the information screen in the multi-
information display disappears, the drive system of
your vehicle will return to the all wheel drive.
If the S-AWC control mode display continues blink-
ing for more than about 5 minutes, have the vehicle
inspected at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer
or a repair facility of your choice.
