MITSUBISHI PAJERO IV 2011 Owners Manual

Check engine warning lamp
E00502601696
This lamp is
a part of an onboard diag-
nostic system which monitors the emis-
sions, engine control system or automat-
ic transmission control systems.
If a problem is detected in one of these
systems, this lamp illuminates.
Although your vehicle will usually be
drivable and not need towing, we recom-
mend you to have the system checked as
soon as possible.

[Vehicles to comply with the Euro 3 and
Euro 4 regulation]
This lamp will also illuminate for a few
seconds when the ignition switch is
turned to the “ON” position. If it does
not go off after a few seconds, we recom-
mend you to have the vehicle checked.

[Vehicles to comply with the Euro 5]
This lamp will also illuminate when the
ignition switch is turned “ON”, and goes
off after the engine has started. If it does
not go off after the engine has started,
we recommend you to have the system
checked. CAUTION
l
Prolonged driving
with
this
lamp on may cause further dam-
age to the emission control sys-
tem. It could also affect fuel
economy and drivability. CAUTION
l
If the lamp
does not illuminate
when the ignition switch is
turned to the “ON” position,
we recommend you to have the
system checked.
l If the lamp illuminates while
the engine is running, avoid
driving at high speeds and we
recommend you to have the sys-
tem checked.
Accelerator pedal and brake
pedal response may be negative-
ly influenced under these condi-
tions.
NOTE l The
engine electronic

control mod-
ule accommodating the onboard di-
agnostic system has various fault
data (especially about the exhaust
emission) stored.
This data will be erased if a bat-
tery cable is disconnected which
will make a rapid diagnosis diffi-
cult. Do not disconnect a battery
cable when the check engine warn-
ing lamp is ON. Charge warning display
E00502700472
This lamp illuminates

when the ignition
switch is turned to the “ON” position,
and goes off after the engine has started. CAUTION
l
If it illuminates
while the en-
gine is running, there is a prob-
lem in the charging system. In
this case, immediately park
your vehicle in a safe place and
we recommend you to have it
checked. Oil pressure warning lamp
E00502800529
This lamp illuminates

when the ignition
switch is turned to the “ON” position,
and goes off after the engine has started.
If it illuminates while the engine is run-
ning, the oil pressure is too low. Turn
the engine off and have it inspected. CAUTION
l
This warning
lamp
does not in-
dicate the amount of oil level in
the engine. This must be deter-
mined by checking the oil level
on the dipstick, while the en-
gine is switched off.
l If this lamp illuminates when
the engine oil level is not low,
have it inspected.
l If you continue driving with
low engine oil level or with this
warning lamp illuminated, en-
gine seizure may occur. Instruments and controls

Door ajar warning lamp
E00503300635
This lamp illuminates
when a door or
the backdoor is either open or incomplete-
ly closed.
If the vehicle speed reaches approximate-
ly 8 km/h (5 mph) with a door or the back-
door open or incompletely closed, the
warning lamp flashes 8 times and a buz-
zer simultaneously sounds 8 times as a
warning. CAUTION
l
Before moving
your
vehicle,
check that the warning lamp is
OFF.
NOTE l On
vehicles with

keyless entry sys-
tem, the lamp remains illuminated
for a certain period and then goes
out automatically.
l Buzzer settings can be changed at
a your MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point to:
• No buzzer operation (buzzerdisabled)
• Continuous buzzer operation Centre information display*
E00517800295 CAUTION
l
The driver
should
not operate the display
while the vehicle is in motion.
When the ignition switch is turned to the “ACC” po-
sition, the screen switches on automatically.
NOTE l Placing
a cellular

phone in the monitor’s
small storage compartment may weaken the
phone’s reception. This does not indicate a
fault with the system.
l Use of wireless devices such as transceivers
or a cellular phone near the monitor may
make the following condition on the display.
This does not indicate a fault with the system.
• The screen goes dark temporarily.
• The compass may not show the correct di-rection.
l Depending on the angle of view, you may
see reddish horizontal lines on the monitor.
The lines are a characteristic of the vacuum
fluorescent display (VFD) used in the moni-
tor. They do not indicate a fault. Instruments and controls

time automatically by using the signal from the lo-
cal RDS stations. In this mode, “CT” (A) (Clock
Time: sent with the RDS signal) is shown in the au-
dio display. NOTE

consumption during the period
since the last reset is shown in (A) and the momen-
tary fuel consumption in (C). The average value of
the fuel consumption is graphed every 5 minutes
and the data for up to 4 hours are shown in (B).

the ignition switch to the
“ON” position after turning it from the “ON”
position to the “ACC” or “LOCK” position
in the manual reset mode, the auto reset
mode will automatically be selected. l
When
the
average
fuel consumption cannot
be calculated, “--.-” will be shown.
l The average and momentary fuel consump-
tion change depending on the driving condi-
tion (road condition, driving behavior, etc.).
The indications may differ from the actual
fuel consumption. Therefore, it is recommen-
ded to use the indications as reference.
l The unit indication can be changed to your de-
sired setting {km/L, L/100 km, mpg (UK
GALLON), or mpg (US GALLON)}.
Refer to “User customization” on page 3-25.
Resetting the average fuel consumption
Press the “RESET” function button to reset the aver-
age fuel consumption indication. NOTE
l The
average fuel

consumption can be reset
separately for the auto reset mode and for the
manual reset mode. l
When you
turn
the ignition switch to the
“ON” position about 4 hours (or more) after
turning it from the “ON” position to the
“ACC” or “LOCK” position in the auto reset
mode, the average fuel consumption indica-
tion will automatically be reset.
Driving range E00518300066
This value (A) shows the distance (in km or miles)
that can be

driven on the fuel remaining in the fuel
tank. The driving range is graphed every 5 minutes
and the data for up to 4 hours are shown in (B). NOTE
l When
the driving

range is 50 km (30 miles)
or less, the display shows “----”.
When it is 3,000 km (2,000 miles) or more,
“3,000 km” or “2,000 miles” will be shown.
l When the driving range cannot be measured,
the display shows “----”. Instruments and controls

l
The driving
range is shown based on the ac-
cumulated fuel consumption data, however,
may be changed depending on the driving con-
dition (road condition, driving behavior,
etc.). If the battery terminals are disconnec-
ted, the accumulated fuel consumption data
will be erased. It is recommended to use the
indication as reference.
l When the vehicle is fueled, the driving range
will be updated. However, if the amount of
fueling is small, the indication may not be cor-
rect. Therefore, fill up the tank as much as
possible in case of fueling.
l When the vehicle is stopped on a steep slope,
the value of the driving range may increase.
This is caused by the fuel movement inside
the tank on the slope and is not deemed as a
failure.
Resetting the driving range
Press the “RESET” function button to reset the driv-
ing range plotted in graph. NOTE
l Pressing
the “RESET”
function button will
not reset the indication (C).
l It is possible to set the display unit to km or
miles.

OBKE12E1

To adjust the elevation
It is possible to adjust the currently indicated eleva-
tion using the following function buttons:
“+”- Adjustment of elevation
The elevation increases
by 50 m
(200 ft) every time you lightly push
the “+” button.
If you continue pressing the button
for about 2 seconds or more, the ele-
vation indication is fast-forwarded.
Then the setting is changed to the el-
evation selected.
“-”- Adjustment of elevation The elevation decreases
by 50 m
(200 ft) every time you lightly push
the “-” button.
If you continue pressing the button
for about 2 seconds or more, the ele-
vation indication is fast-forwarded.
Then the setting is changed to the el-
evation selected. NOTE
l The
elevation is

determined from changes in
atmospheric pressure. Depending on weather
conditions, the indicated elevation may differ
from the actual elevation. Variations in atmos-
pheric pressure can cause different elevations
to be shown even in the same location. This
behavior does not indicate a fault. Use the in-
dication as a guide only.
Resetting the elevation
Press the “RESET” function button to reset the ele-
vation plotted in graph. NOTE
l Pressing
the “RESET”

function button will
not reset the indication (C).
