NOTE
Depressing the brake pedal repeatedly may
turn on the brake warning lamp, ABS warn-
ing lamp and brake warning buzzer. It is
normal if the lamp goes out and the buzzer
stops sounding after a few seconds.
If the lamp illuminates while
driving(1) Since there will always be a possibil-
ity of the vehicle becoming unstable
when brakes are applied rapidly,
ensure that brakes are applied gently
and that high-speed driving is not
attempted; furthermore, bring the
vehicle to halt in a safe location.
Restart the engine and check to see
whether the lamp goes out after a few
minutes driving; if it then remains off
during driving, there is no problem.
However, if the lamp does not go out,
or if it lights up again when the vehicle
is driven, have the vehicle checked by
an authorized MITSUBISHI dealer as
soon as possible.
(2) After starting the engine using jumper
cables, if you attempt to drive the
vehicle before the battery is suffi-
ciently charged, the engine will run
irregularly and the ABS warning lamp
will illuminate indicating that the vehicle
should not be driven.
This situation, however, is caused
merely by insufficient battery voltage
and is not an abnormal situation.
If such a situation occurs, run the
engine at idle for some time to charge
the battery.

FrontNOTE
(1) Immediately after the vehicle starts
moving after engine start up, a brake
pedal pulsating is felt when the brake
pedal is depressed. This pulsation is
due to the self-diagnosis operation of
the ABS and does not indicate a mal-
function.
(2) After driving on snowy roads, remove
any snow and ice which may have
become adhered to the wheel areas.
When doing this, be careful not to dam-
age the wheel speed sensors (A) and
cables located at each wheel on
vehicles equipped with an ABS.
