When the headlamps of the vehicles behind
you are very bright, the reflection factor of the rear-view mirror is automatically changed
to reduce the glare.
When the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position, the reflection factor of the mirror is automatically changed.
NOTEl Do not hang items on, or spray glass cleaner
on the sensor (1), as reduced sensitivitycould result.Outside rear-view mirrors

Compound curved-surface mirror*
On the driver’s side, a compound curved-sur-
face mirror is used, while on the front passen-
ger’s side, a single curved-surface mirror is used.
1- Compound curved-surface mirror
2- Single curved-surface mirror
While the single curved-surface mirror has a fixed curvature, the compound curved-sur- face mirror has different curvatures between
the inner and outer sides of the boundary line
(A).
The inner side of the boundary line provides
the same vision as that available from an or- dinary door mirror.
However, the outer side of the boundary line
provides a wider angle of vision compared to an ordinary door mirror.WARNINGl The sense of distance that you get from an
object you see on the inner side of themirror boundary line differs from the
sense of distance that you get from an ob-
ject you see on the outer side.
An object you see on the outer side of the boundary line of the mirror will look far-
ther away than actually is as compared
with an object you see on the inner side.To adjust the mirror position
E00601000105
The outside rear-view mirrors can be operat-
ed when the ignition switch is in the “ON” or “ACC” position.
WARNINGl Do not attempt to adjust the rear-view
mirrors while driving. This can be dan-
gerous.
Always adjust the mirrors before driving.

If the warning lamp illuminateswhile driving
E00607300416
If only the ABS warning lamp illuminates
l Avoid hard braking and high-speed driv-
ing. Stop the vehicle in a safe place.
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, we recommend you to have the
vehicle checked as soon as possible.
l The ABS warning lamp can illuminate if
the battery voltage is insufficient when the engine is started. In this case, it doesnot indicate an ABS fault.
Charge the battery by allowing the en- gine to idle for a while.
If the battery has been charged but the
ABS warning lamp continues to illumi-
nate or illuminates intermittently, we recommend you to have the vehicle in-
spected.
If the ABS warning lamp and
brake warning lamp illuminate
at the same time
l The ABS and brake force distribution
function will not work, so hard braking
could make the vehicle unstable.
Avoid hard braking and high-speed driv- ing. Stop the vehicle in a safe place and we recommend you to have it checked.
Inspection following snowy
road operation
E00618300012
After driving on snowy roads, remove any snow and ice which may have become ad-
hered to the wheel areas.
When doing this, be careful not to damage the wheel speed sensors (A) and cables loca-ted at each wheel on vehicles equipped with
an ABS.

Power steering system
E00607401528
The power steering system operates while the
engine is running. It helps reduce the effort needed to turn the steering wheel.
The power steering system has mechanical
steering capability in case the power assist is lost. If the power assist is lost for some rea-
son, you will still be able to steer your vehi-
cle, but you will notice it takes much more effort to steer. If this happens, have your ve-
hicle inspected at a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.
WARNINGl Do not stop the engine while the vehicle is
moving. Stopping the engine would make the steering wheel extremely hard to turn,
possibly resulting in an accident.

WARNINGlAlthough the set speed driving will be de-
activated when shifting to the “N” (NEU-
TRAL) position, never move the selector lever to the “N” (NEUTRAL) position
while driving.
You would have no engine braking and
could cause a serious accident.
Also, the set speed driving may be deactiva-
ted as follows:
l When the engine speed rises and ap-
proaches the tachometer’s red zone (the red-coloured part of the tachometer di-
al).
CAUTIONl When the set speed driving is deactivated
automatically in any situation other thanthose listed above, there may be a system
malfunction.
Press the “ON-OFF” switch to turn off the cruise control and have your vehicle inspec- ted by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point.To resume the set speed
E00609800460
If the set speed driving is deactivated by the
condition described in “To deactivate” on
page 6-47, you can resume the previously set
speed by pressing the “ACC RES” switch (C)
while driving at a speed of about 40 km/h (25 mph) or higher.
Under either of the following conditions,however, using the switch does not allow you
to resume the previously set speed. In these
situations, repeat the speed setting procedure:
l The “ON OFF” switch is pressed.
l The ignition switch is turned OFF.
l “CRUISE” indication lamp is turned
OFF.
Tyre pressure monitoring
system (TPMS)* E00637100077
The tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS)
uses tyre inflation pressure sensors (A) on the wheels to monitor the tyre inflation pressures.
The system only indicates when a tyre is sig-
nificantly under-inflated.
The base tyre pressure can be set at desired value by the driver with the reset function ex-
ecution. (The low pressure warning threshold is set based on the reset.)
The tyre inflation pressure sensor IDs for two sets of tyres can be registered by aMITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point, and the valid ID set can be switched by the multi-information display switch. (It’s
beneficial in case of seasonal tyre change be-
tween summer tyre and winter tyre.)
Tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS)*
6-48OVWX17E1Starting and driving6

NOTElThe tyre pressure monitoring system
(TPMS) is not a substitute for regularlychecking tyre inflation pressures.
Be sure to check the tyre inflation pressures as described in “Tyres” on page 10-11.
l The tyre inflation pressure sensor (B) is in-
stalled in the illustrated location.
Replace rubber air value (C) with a new one when the tyre is replaced.
For details, please contact your
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
l The spare tyre also has tyre inflation pres-
sure sensor, so it can be used for tyre rota- tion.
Tyre pressure monitoring sys-
tem warning lamp
E00637200052
When the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position the tyre pressure monitoring system warning lamp normally illuminates
and goes off a few seconds later.

If one or more of the vehicle tyres is signifi- cantly under-inflated, the warning lamp will
remain illuminated while the ignition switch is in ON.
Refer to “If the warning lamp illuminates while driving” on page 6-39 and take the nec-essary measures.
CAUTIONl If the warning lamp does not illuminate
when the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position it means that the tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is not working
properly. Have the system inspected at a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
In such situations, a malfunctioning of the system may be preventing the monitoring of the tyre pressure. Avoid sudden braking,
sharp turning and high-speed driving.
l If a malfunction is detected in the tyre pres-
sure monitoring system (TPMS), the warn-
ing lamp will blink for approximately 1 mi-
nute and then remain continuously illumina- ted.
The warning lamp will issue further warn-
ings each time the engine is restarted as long
as the malfunction exists.
Check to see whether the warning lamp goes
off after few minutes driving.
If it then goes off during driving, there is no problem.
However, if the warning lamp does not go off, or if it blinks again when the engine is
restarted, have the vehicle inspected by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
In such situations, a malfunctioning of the system may be preventing the monitoring of
the tyre pressure. For safety reasons, when the warning lamp appears while driving,
avoid sudden braking, sharp turning and high-speed driving.
Tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS)*
6-49OVWX17E1Starting and driving6

Each tyre, including the spare, should be
checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by thevehicle manufacturer on the tyre inflation
pressure label. (If your vehicle has tyres of a different size than the size indicated on the
tyre inflation pressure label, you should de-
termine the proper tyre inflation pressure for those tyres.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with the tyre pressure moni-
toring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low
tyre pressure telltale when one or more of
your tyres is significantly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tyre pressure tell-
tale illuminates, you should stop and check your tyres as soon as possible, and inflate
them to the proper pressure. Driving on a sig- nificantly under-inflated tyre causes the tyre to overheat and can lead to tyre failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency
and tyre tread life, and may affect the vehi- cle’s handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the tyre pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) is not a substitute for proper tyre maintenance, and it is the driver’s re-sponsibility to maintain correct tyre pressure,
even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the tyre pres-
sure monitoring system (TPMS) low tyre pressure telltale.Your vehicle has also been equipped with a
warning lamp to indicate when the system is
not operating properly.
The warning lamp is combined with the low
tyre pressure telltale.
When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one mi-nute and then remain continuously illumina-
ted. This sequence will continue upon subse- quent vehicle start-ups as long as the mal-
function exists.
When the warning lamp is illuminated, the
system may not be able to detect or signal low tyre pressure as intended.
The tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS)
malfunctions may occur for a variety of rea- sons, including the installation of replace- ment or alternate tyres or wheels on the vehi-
cle that prevent the tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) from functioning properly.
Always check the tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) malfunction telltale after re- placing one or more tyres or wheels on yourvehicle to ensure that the replacement or al-
ternate tyres and wheels allow the tyre pres- sure monitoring system (TPMS) to continueto function properly.If the warning lamp illuminates
while driving
E00637300082
1. If the warning lamp illuminates, avoid
hard braking, sharp steering manoeuvres
and high speeds. You should stop and
adjust the tyres to the proper inflationpressure as soon as possible. Refer to
“Tyres” on page 10-11.NOTEl When inspecting or adjusting the tyre pres-
sure, do not apply excessive force to the valve stem to avoid breakage.
l After inspecting or adjusting the tyre pres-
sure, always reinstall the valve cap on the valve stem.
Without the valve cap, dirt or moisture could
get into the valve, resulting in damage to the tyre inflation pressure sensor.
l Do not use metal valve caps, which may
cause a metal reaction, resulting in corrosion
and damage of the tyre inflation pressure sensors.
l Once adjustments have been made, the
warning lamp will go off after a few minutes of driving.
2. If the warning lamp remains illuminated
after you have been driving for about 10
minutes after you adjust the tyre infla- tion pressure, one or more of the tyresmay have a puncture. Inspect the tyreand if it has a puncture, have it repaired
by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point as soon as possible.
Tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS)*
6-50OVWX17E1Starting and driving6

WARNINGlIf the warning lamp illuminates while you
are driving, avoid hard braking, sharp steering manoeuvres and high speeds.
Driving with an under-inflated tyre ad-
versely affects vehicle performance and
can result in an accident.CAUTIONl The warning lamp may not illuminate imme-
diately in the event of a tyre blowout or rap-
id leak.NOTEl To avoid the risk of damage to the tyre infla-
tion pressure sensors, have any punctured
tyre repaired by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point. If the tyre repair is
not done by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point, damage to the tyre
inflation pressure sensor is not covered by your warranty.
l Do not use an aerosol puncture-repair spray
on any tyre.
Such a spray could damage the tyre inflation
pressure sensors.
Have any puncture repaired by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.The tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS)
may not work normally in the following cir-
cumstances:
l A wireless facility or device using the
same frequency is near the vehicle.
l Snow or ice is stuck inside the fenders
and/or on the wheels.
l The tyre inflation pressure sensor’s bat-
tery is dead.
l Wheels other than
MITSUBISHI
MOTORS GENUINE wheels are being
used.
l Wheels that are not fitted with tyre infla-
tion pressure sensors are being used.
l Wheels whose ID codes are not memo-
rized by the vehicle are used.
l A window tint that affects the radio
wave signals is installed.NOTEl Tyre inflation pressures vary with the ambi-
ent temperature. If the vehicle is subjected to large variations in ambient temperature, the tyre inflation pressures may be underinflated
(causing the warning lamp come on) when the ambient temperature is relatively low. If
the warning lamp comes on, adjust the tyre inflation pressure.Whenever the tyres and wheels
are replaced with new ones
E00637400025
If new wheels with new tyre inflation pres-
sure sensors are installed, their ID codes must be programmed into the tyre pressure moni- toring system. Have tyre and wheel replace-
ment performed by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point to avoid
the risk of damaging the tyre inflation pres- sure sensors. If the wheel replacement is not
done by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point, it is not covered by your warranty.
CAUTIONl The use of non-genuine wheels will prevent
the proper fit of the tyre inflation pressure sensors, resulting air leakage or damage of
the sensors.Reset of low tyre pressure
warning threshold
E00637500055
The threshold is set based on the tyre pres- sure which the reset function is executed by
following procedure. 1. Transit the display by the button (A) un-
til the tyre pressure monitoring system
(TPMS) SET indicator is displayed.

2.Hold down the button (A) for 3 seconds
or more.
3. The warning lamp start flashing slowly.
4. Drive for a while. The reset is completed
if the warning lamp goes out.
NOTEl The reset function should be executed every
time when the tyre pressure or tyre rotationis adjusted.
l The reset function should be executed when
the tyre is cold. If it is executed when the
tyre is warm (e.g. after driving), there may be a low tyre pressure warning earlier than
usual.Tyre ID set change
E00637600056
In case that 2 sets of tyre inflation pressure
sensor ID are registered in the receiver, the
valid tyre ID set can be changed by following
procedure. 1. Transit the display by the button (A) un-
til the tyre pressure monitoring system
(TPMS) SET indicator is displayed.
2. Hold down the button (A) for 10 seconds or more.
(Although the reset execution starts at
holding down the button for 3 seconds, keep holding down the button continu-
ously.)
3. The valid tyre ID set is changed, and the
number of the tyre pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) SET indicator is changed.
NOTEl Each time this procedure is done, the tyre ID
set is changed. (1 - 2 - 1 - 2 …)
l The tyre ID set is NOT changed, in case that
only 1 set of ID is registered.
l When changing the tyre ID set, the reset
function of low tyre pressure warning
threshold is automatically started. (The warning lamp start flashing slowly.) If the
tyre is warm at this time. the reset function
should be executed again when the tyre is cold.Reversing sensor system*
E00615500055
This system operates when you are backingthe vehicle. It uses corner and back sensors to detect an obstacle and sounds a buzzer to in-form you of the approximate distance to the
obstacle.
Reversing sensor system*
6-52OVWX17E1Starting and driving6

CAUTIONlThe reversing sensor system assists you in
determining the approximate distance be-
tween the vehicle and an obstacle located behind the vehicle. It has limitations in terms
of detectable areas and objects, and may not
properly detect some objects. Therefore, do
not place excessive confidence in the revers- ing sensor system and operate the vehicle ascarefully as you would do with a vehicle not equipped with this system.
l Make sure to check the surroundings with
your own eyes to ensure safety. Do not oper-
ate the vehicle by relying on the reversing sensor system alone.Corner and back sensor loca-
tions
E00618500014
There are two corner sensors (A) at the cor- ners of the rear bumper, and two back sensors
(B) in the spare wheel garnish.
Obstacle detection areas
E00615600261
The detection areas of the corner and back
sensors are limited to those shown in the il-
lustration. Because the back sensors are built in the overhanging area of the vehicle (spare
wheel garnish), the sensors are unable to de- tect low or thin obstacles, or obstacles on the
bottom of the spare wheel garnish or the bot-
tom of the centre of the rear bumper. Thus, make sure to check the surroundings as you
operate the vehicle in a safe manner.
Reversing sensor system detec- tion areas
Depending on whether the vehicle is equip-ped with a towing bar, you can change the re-
versing sensor system between the standard
mode and the towing bar mode. The towing
bar mode changes the system to exclude the area in which the towing bar is mounted from the detection areas.
Vehicles without a towing bar
The detection areas are within approximately
50 cm (A) from the corner sensors, 150 cm
(B) from the back sensors.
Vehicles with a towing bar
The detection areas are within approximately 50 cm (A) from the corner sensors, 150 cm
(B) from the back sensors. The non-detection areas (C) are within approximately 20 cm (D)
from the bumper.
Reversing sensor system*
6-53OVWX17E1Starting and driving6

NOTElIf the rear bumper or the spare wheel garnish
has been exposed to an impact, the corner orback sensors may fail and prevent the sys-
tem from functioning properly. We recom- mend you to have your vehicle inspected.
l The sensors do not detect objects located in
the area directly below or near the bumper. If the height of an object is lower than themounted position of the corner or back sen-
sors, the sensors may not continue detecting
it even if they detected it initially.
For information on how to change the detec-
tion areas, please refer to “Changing the de- tection areas” on page 6-56.
CAUTIONl The reversing sensor system may not operate
properly under the following conditions:
• The sensors or surroundings are covered
with ice, snow, or mud.
• The sensors are frozen.
• The system receives ultrasonic noise from
other sources (the horns of other vehicles, motorcycle engines, brakes, radios, pour-
ing rain, splashing water, tyre chains, etc.).
• The sensors are extremely hot or cold
(while the vehicle is parked for a long pe- riod of time under a blazing sun or in coldweather).
• The vehicle tilts significantly.CAUTION•The vehicle is driven on a rough road
(with a bumpy, gravel, hilly, or grassy surface).
• The vehicle is too close to an obstacle.
• The sensors or surroundings have been
wiped by hand, or stickers or accessorieshave been attached.
l The reversing sensor system may not proper-
ly detect the following:
• Objects that are thin, such as wire nets or
ropes.
• Objects that absorb sound waves, such as
snow.
• Objects that are shaped with a sharp an-
gle.
• Objects with a smooth surface, such as
glass.
• Objects that are low, such as kerbstones.NOTEl The buzzer may sound lower than the nor-
mal warning sound when the reversing sen-sor system is receiving ultrasonic noise from
other sources, but this is not a malfunction.
The buzzer will stop sounding and the sys- tem will return to normal operation after thenoise is no longer received.To operate
