Safety mechanism
E00303800029
If a hand or head
is trapped in the closing sunroof,
it will reopen automatically.
Nonetheless, make sure that nobody puts their head
or hand out of the sunroof when opening or closing.
The opened sunroof will become operational after
a few seconds.

If the safety mechanism is activated 5 or more
times consecutively or the switch (1) is kept press-
ed for 10 seconds or longer with the sunroof station-
ary in the fully tilted up position, normal closing of
the sunroof will be aborted. In such an event, you
should take the following steps: 1. Press the switch (1) repeatedly until the sun-roof has been fully tilt up.
2. Once the fully tilt up position has been reached, press again and hold the switch (1)
for at least 3 seconds.
3. After pressing the switch (3) to perform full opening, press the switch (2) to fully close
the sunroof.
NOTE l The safety mechanism can be activated if the
driving conditions or other circumstances
cause the sunroof to be subjected to a physi-
cal shock similar to that caused by a trapped
hand or head.
l Avoid stopping the sunroof before it reaches
the opening or closing end during operations.
If this should accidentally happen, repeat the
process from step 1. CAUTION
l
The safety mechanism is cancelled
just be-
fore the sunroof is fully closed. This al-
lows the sunroof to close completely.
Therefore be especially careful that no fin-
gers are trapped in the sunroof.
4. Following this action,
it should

be possible
to operate the sunroof in the normal manner.
Sunshade E00307900044
Slide the sunshade manually to open and close it. CAUTION
l
Be careful that hands are
not trapped
when closing the sunshade.
NOTE l The
sunshade will operate together

with the
sunroof when the sunroof is opened. l
Be sure to tilt
down
the sunroof before clos-
ing the sunshade.
l The sunshade cannot be closed with the sun-
roof opened. Do not attempt to close the sun-
shade when the sunroof is opened. WARNING
l Do not put head,
hands
or anything else
out of the sunroof opening while driving
the vehicle.
l Never leave a child (or other person who
might not be capable of safe operation of
the sunroof switch) in the vehicle alone.
l Before operating the sunroof, make sure
that nothing is capable of being trapped
(head, hand, finger, etc.).
NOTE l The
sunroof stops just before

reaching the
fully open position.
If the vehicle is driven with the sunroof in
this position, wind throb is lower than with
the sunroof fully open.
l When leaving the vehicle unattended, make
sure you close the sunroof and remove the ig-
nition key.
l Do not try to operate the sunroof if it is fro-
zen closed (after snow fall or during extreme
cold).
l Do not sit or place heavy luggage on the sun-
roof or roof opening edge.
l Release the switch as soon as the sunroof rea-
ches the fully open or fully closed position. Locking and unlocking

l
If the sunroof does
not operate when the sun-
roof switch is operated, release the switch
and check whether something is trapped by
the sunroof. If nothing is trapped, we recom-
mend you to have the sunroof checked.
l Depending on the model of ski carriers or
roof carriers, the sunroof may make contact
with the carrier when the sunroof is tilted up.
Be careful when tilting up the sunroof if such
a ski carrier or a roof carrier is installed.
l Be sure to close the sunroof completely
when washing the vehicle or when leaving
the vehicle.
l Be careful, not to put any wax on the weath-
erstrip (black rubber) around the sunroof
opening. If stained with wax, the weather-
strip cannot maintain a weatherproof seal
with the sunroof.
l After washing the vehicle or after it has
rained, wipe off any water that is on the sun-
roof before operating it.
l Operating the sunroof repeatedly with the en-
gine stationary will run down the battery. Op-
erate the sunroof while the engine is running. Locking and unlocking

3. When the declination adjustment has been
completed, press the “SET” function button. Setting the compass
The compass is usually
calibrated
automatically
when the vehicle is moving. At times when com-
plete calibration is not possible, no compass indica-
tions are given. Manually set the compass using the
following procedure. NOTE
l If
your vehicle has a

sunroof, keep the sun-
roof closed when calibrating the compass.
Having the sunroof open when calibrating
the compass could render the compass un-
able to correctly show directions.
With a settings display showing, press the “ADJ”
button and select “COMPASS CALIBRATION”. 1. Press the function button for “SELECT”. 2. Press the function button for “SELECT”. 3. Turn the vehicle slowly through 360 degrees
in a safe, open area with no buildings and oth-
er vehicles. NOTE
l If
you wish to stop

calibrating the compass
part-way through the procedure, press the “IN-
FO” button or “ADJ” button. Instruments and controls

CAUTION
l
After washing the vehicle, drive the vehi-
cle slowly while lightly depressing the
brake pedal several times in order to dry
out the brakes.
Leaving the brakes wet could result in re-
duced braking performance. Also, there
is a possibility that they could freeze up
or become inoperative due to rust, render-
ing the vehicle unable to move.
l When using an automatic car wash, pay
attention to the following items, referring
to the operation manual or consulting a
car wash operator. If the following proce-
dure is not followed, it could result in dam-
age to your vehicle.
• The outside mirrors are retracted.
• If your vehicle is equipped with the pil-lar antenna, it can be retracted.
• If your vehicle is equipped with the roof antenna, it can be removed.
During cold weather
Salt and other chemicals spread

on the roads in
some areas in winter can have a harmful effect on
the vehicle body. You should therefore wash the ve-
hicle as often as possible in accordance with our
care-instructions. It is recommended to have a pres-
ervative applied and the underfloor protection
checked before and after the cold weather season.
After washing your vehicle, wipe off all water-
drops from the rubber parts around the doors to pre-
vent the doors from freezing. NOTE
l To
prevent freezing
of the

weatherstripping
on the doors, bonnet, etc., they should be trea-
ted with silicone spray.
Waxing E00901000687
Waxing the vehicle will help prevent the adherence
of dust and road chemicals

to the paintwork. Apply
a wax solution after washing the vehicle, or at least
once every three months to assist displacing of water.
Do not wax your vehicle in direct sunlight. You
should wax after the surfaces have cooled. CAUTION
l
Waxes containing high abrasive
com-
pounds
should not be used. Such waxes re-
move rust and stains effectively from the
paintwork but they are harmful to the lus-
tre on the painted surface and the plated
surface.
Further, they are harmful to glossy surfa-
ces such as grille, garnish, mouldings, etc.
l Do not use petrol or paint thinners to re-
move road tar or other contamination to
the vehicle surface.
l Do not apply wax on the areas having
black mat coating as it can cause uneven
discolouration, patches, blurs, etc. If
stained with wax, immediately wipe off
with a piece of soft cloth and warm water. CAUTION
l
On vehicles with a sunroof,
be careful
when waxing the area around the sunroof
opening, not to put any wax on the weath-
erstrip (black rubber). If stained with
wax, the weatherstrip cannot maintain a
weatherproof seal with the sunroof.
Polishing E00901100011
The vehicle should only be polished if the paint-
work has become stained or lost its lustre. Matt-fin-
ish parts and
plastic bumpers

must not be polished,
polishing these parts will stain them or damage
their finish.
Damaged paint E00901200155
Small cracks and scratches in the paint coat should
be touched up as soon

as possible with
MITSUBISHI touch-up paint to prevent corrosion.
Check body areas facing the road or the tyres care-
fully for damage to the paint coat caused by flying
stones, etc. The paint code number for your vehicle
can be found on the vehicle information code plate.
(Refer to “Vehicle labeling” on page 9-02.)
Cleaning plastic parts E00901300446
Use a sponge or chamois leather.
If a car wax adheres

on a grey or black rough sur-
face of the bumper, moulding or lamps, the surface
becomes white. In such a case, wipe it off using
lukewarm water and soft cloth or chamois leather. Vehicle care

CAUTION
l
Do not use a scrubbing brush or other
hard tools as they may damage the plastic
part surface.
l Do not use wax containing compound (pol-
ishing powder) which may damage the
plastic part surface.
l Do not bring the plastic parts into contact
with petrol, light oil, brake fluids, engine
oils, greases, paint thinners, and sulphu-
ric acid (battery electrolyte) which may
crack, stain or discolour the plastic parts.
If they touch the plastic parts, wipe them
off with soft cloth, chamois or the like
and an aqueous solution of neutral deter-
gent then immediately rinse the affected
parts with water.
Chrome parts E00901400014
In order to prevent spots and corrosion of chrome
parts, wash with
water, dry

thoroughly, and apply a
special protective coating. This should be done
more frequently in winter.
Aluminium wheels* E00901500116
1. Remove dirt using a sponge while sprinkling
water on the vehicle.
2. Use neutral detergent

on any dirt that cannot
be removed easily with water.
Rinse off the neutral detergent after washing
the vehicle.
3. Dry the vehicle thoroughly using a chamois leather or a soft cloth. CAUTION
l
Do not use a brush
or other hard imple-
ment on the wheels.
Doing so could scratch the wheels.
l Do not use any cleaner that contains an
abrasive substance or is acidic or alka-
line. Doing so could cause the coating on
the wheels to peel or become discoloured
or stained.
l Do not directly apply hot water using a
steam cleaner or by any other means.
l Contact with seawater and road deicer
can cause corrosion. Rinse off such sub-
stances as soon as possible.
Window glass E00901600058
The window glass can normally be cleaned using
only a sponge and water.
Glass cleaner can
be used

to remove oil, grease,
dead insects, etc. After washing the glass, wipe dry
with a clean, dry, soft cloth. Never use the same
cloth to wipe the window glass as would be used to
wipe the paintwork; wax from the painted surfaces
could adhere to the glass and reduce its transparen-
cy and visibility.
NOTE
l To clean the inside of the rear window, al-
ways use a soft cloth and wipe the window
glass along the demister heater element so as
not to cause damage. Wiper blades
E00901700017
Use a soft cloth and glass cleaner to remove grease,
dead insects, etc., from the

wiper blades. Replace
the wiper blades when they no longer wipe proper-
ly. (Refer to page “Wiper blades” on page 8-17.)
Cleaning the sunroof* E00901800180
Clean the inside of the sunroof with a soft cloth.
Hard deposits should
be wiped

away with a cloth
dipped in warm, neutral detergent solution. Wipe
away the solution with a sponge dipped in fresh wa-
ter.
NOTE
l The surface treatment on the inside of the
glass may be removed if hard cloth or organ-
ic solvent (benzine, kerosene, thinner, etc.) is
used.
Engine compartment E00902100265
Clean the engine compartment at the beginning and
end of winter. Pay particular

attention to flanges,
crevices and peripheral parts where dust containing
road chemicals and other corrosive materials might
collect.
If salt and other chemicals are used on the roads in
your area, clean the engine compartment at least ev-
ery three months.
Never spray or splash water on the electrical com-
ponents in the engine compartment, as this may
cause damage.
Do not bring the nearby parts, the plastic parts and
so on into contact with sulphuric acid (battery elec-
trolyte) which may crack, stain or discolour them. Vehicle care
