Tachometer
ED04A-Ac
The tachometer indicates the engine speed
(r/min). The tachometer can help you obtain
more economical driving and also warns
you of excessive engine speeds.
CAUTION
During travel, watch the tachometer
making sure that the engine speed
indication does not rise to the red
zone (excessive engine rpm).

Odometer/Tripmeter
ED03FAJa
When the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON”position, odometer and tripmeter indi-
cations are given.
Every time the reset button (3) is pressed
lightly (less than 1 second), tripmeter indi-
cations (TRIP
and
) are changed.

OdometerThe odometer indicates the total distance
the vehicle has travelled.
D03F018A
TripmeterThe tripmeter indicates the distance trav-
elled during a particular trip or period.
There are two tripmeter displays: TRIP
and
.
TRIP
can be used to measure the dis-
tance travelled since the current trip began.
At the same time, TRIP
can be used to
measure the distance from an intermedi-
ate location. To return the display to zero,
press the reset button for more than 1 sec-
ond. Only the currently displayed value will
be reset.
If TRIP
is displayed, for example, only
TRIPwill be reset.

Brake warning lamp - red
(Brake warning buzzer/Vehicles with
anti-lock brake system)
ED23AAGa
With the ignition switch“ON ”, the brake warning
lamp illuminates under the following conditions:
(1)When the parking brake lever has been engaged.
(2)When the brake fluid level in the reservoir falls to a low level.
(3)When the brake circuit is not operating cor- rectly.
Brake warning buzzer
(Vehicles with anti-lock brake system)
When there is a danger of brake performance
becoming compromised, a buzzer will sound to alert
the driver. If this buzzer should continue to sound,
park your vehicle in a safe place and contact your
nearest authorized MITSUBISHI dealer.
NOTE
Depressing the brake pedal repeatedly may turn on
the brake warning lamp, ABS warning lamp and
brake warning buzzer. It is normal if the lamp goes
out and the buzzer stops sounding after a few sec-
onds.
CAUTION
(1)In the situations listed below, brake per- formance may be compromised or the
vehicle may become unstable if brakes are
applied suddenly; consequently, avoid driv-
ing at high speeds or applying the brakes
suddenly. Furthermore, the vehicle should
be brought to a stop in a safe location and
your nearest authorized MITSUBISHI dealer
should be contacted.
•The brake warning lamp does not illumi-
nate when the parking brake is applied or
does not turn off when the parking brake
is released.
• The brake warning lamp remains illumi-
nated during driving.
• The brake warning buzzer does not turn
off. (In the case of vehicles with anti-lock
brake systems)
(2)The vehicle should be brought to a halt in the following manner when brake perfor-
mance has deteriorated.
•Depress the brake pedal harder than
usual.
• Should the brakes fail, use engine brak-
ing to reduce your speed and slowly pull
the parking brake lever to park your
vehicle.
Depress the brake pedal to operate the
stop lamp (brake lamp) to alert the
vehicles behind you.

NOTE
(1) In certain cases immediately after the engine hasbeen started or when the brake pedal is
depressed repeatedly, a noise generated by
operation of brake devices may be heard com-
ing from the engine compartment. This type of
noise is normal and is no need for concern in
fact, it indicates that the corresponding devices
are operating normally. (This applies to vehicles
fitted with anti-lock brake system)
(2) On vehicles equipped with anti-lock brake sys-
tem, the brake system uses brake fluid pres-
surized by the pump.
Please refer to the “Brake system ”on page 5-44.Oil pressure warning lamp - red
ED25A-Ah
This lamp illuminates when the ignition switch is
turned “ON ”, and goes off after the engine has
started. If it illuminates while the engine is run-
ning, the oil pressure is too low.
If the warning lamp illuminates while the engine is
running, turn the engine off and contact your near-
est authorized MITSUBISHI dealer for inspection.
CAUTION
(1)If this lamp illuminates when the engine oil level is not low, contact your nearest autho-
rized MITSUBISHI dealer for inspection.
(2)This warning lamp does not indicate the amount of oil in the crankcase. This must
be determined by checking the oil level on
the dipstick, while the engine is switched
off.
(3)If you continue driving with low engine oil level or with this warning lamp illumi-
nated, engine seizure may occur.
NOTE
The oil pressure warning lamp should not be treated
as an indication of the engine ’s oil level. The oil level
must be checked using the dipstick.
