NOTE
( 1) When leaving the vehicle unat-
tended, make sure you close the sun-
roof and remove the ignition key.
( 2) Do not try to operate the sunroof if it
is frozen closed (after snow fall or dur-
ing extreme cold).
( 3) Do not sit or place heavy luggage on
the sunroof or roof opening edge.
( 4) Release the switch as soon as the
sunroof reaches the fully open or fully
closed position.
( 5) If the sunroof does not operate when
the sunroof switch is operated,
release the switch and check whether
something is trapped by the sun-
roof. If nothing is trapped, have the
sunroof checked at an authorized
MITSUBISHI dealer.
( 6) Depending on the models of ski car-
riers or roof carriers, the sunroof may
contact with the carrier when the sun-
roof is tilted up. Be careful when tilt-
ing up the sunroof if such a ski carrier
or a roof carrier is installed.
( 7) Be sure to close the sunroof com-
pletely when washing the vehicle or
when leaving the vehicle.( 8) Be careful, not to put any wax on the
weatherstrip (black rubber) around the
sunroof opening. If stained with wax,
the weatherstrip cannot maintain a
weatherproof seal with the sunroof.
( 9) After washing the vehicle or after it
has rained, wipe off any water that is
on the sunroof before operating it.
(10) Operating the sunroof repeatedly with
the engine stationary will run down the
battery. Operate the sunroof while the
engine is running.

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.

Check engine indication lamp - amber
ED85AAMa
This lamp is a part of an onboard diagnostic sys-
tem which monitors the emissions and engine.
If a problem is detected in one of these systems, this
lamp flashes or illuminates. Although your vehicle
will usually be drivable and not need towing, have
the system checked as soon as possible at an
authorized MITSUBISHI dealer.
This lamp will also illuminate for a few seconds when
the ignition key is turned to the “ON” position. If it
does not go off after a few seconds, take the vehicle
to an authorized MITSUBISHI dealer.
CAUTION
(1) Prolonged driving with this lamp on maycause further damage to the emission con-
trol system. It could also affect fuel
economy and drivability.
(2) If the lamp does not illuminate when the ignition key is turned to the “ON ”posi-
tion, have the system checked at an autho-
rized MITSUBISHI dealer.
CAUTION
(3) If the lamp illuminates or flashes while the engine is running, avoid driving at high
speeds and have the system checked at an
authorized MITSUBISHI dealer.
During vehicle operation with the lamp illu-
minated or flashing, the vehicle may not
accelerate when you depress the accel-
erator pedal. When the vehicle is station-
ary with the lamp illuminated or flashing,
you must depress the brake pedal more
firmly than usual since the engine idling
speed is higher than usual and the vehicle
with an automatic transmission has a
stronger tendency to creep forward.
NOTE
The engine electronic control module accommo-
dating the onboard diagnostic system has various
fault data (especially about the exhaust emission)
stored.
This data will be erased if a battery cable is discon-
nected, which will make a rapid diagnosis difficult.
Do not disconnect a battery cable when the check
engine indication lamp is ON.High-beam indication lamp - blue

NOTE
(1) Do not leave the headlamps and other
lamps on for too long while the engine
is stationary. A run-down battery could
result.(2) When it rains, or when the vehicle has
been washed, the inside of the lens
sometimes becomes foggy. This is the
same phenomenon as when window
glass mists up on a humid day, and
does not indicate a functional prob-
lem. When the lamp is switched on, the
heat will remove the fog. However, if
water gathers inside the lamp, please
go to an authorized MITSUBISHI
dealer for a check.
[Vehicles with Daytime Running Lamp]
When the ignition switch is in the“ON”
position and the lamp switch is set to the

will sound to warn the driver that the
lamps have not been turned off, and
these lamps will automatically turn off.NOTE
(1) The lamp auto-cutout will not function
when the lamp switch is in the“
”
position.
(2) When the ignition switch has been
turned to either the“LOCK”or“ACC”
position with the lamp switch in the
“
”position, and the lamp switch is
returned to the“
”(OFF) within
approximately 3 minutes, the
auto-cutout function will not be acti-
vated.
When you want to keep the lamps on:
1. Turn the switch in the“
”(OFF) posi-
tion to switch off all lamps while the key

Precautions to observe when using
wipers and washers
EE13C-I
(1) If the moving wipers become blocked
by ice or other deposits on the glass,
the motor may burn out even if the
wiper switch is turned to OFF. If
obstruction occurs, park your vehicle in
a safe place, turn off the ignition, and
clean the deposits from the glass so
that the wipers operate smoothly.
(2) Do not use the wipers when the glass
is dry. They may scratch the glass sur-
face or the blades may prematurely
wear out.
(3) Before using the wipers in cold weather,
check that the wiper blades are not fro-
zen onto the glass. The motor may
burn out if the wipers are used with the
blades frozen onto the glass.
(4) Avoid using the washer continuously for
more than 20 seconds. Do not oper-
ate the washer when the fluid reser-
voir is empty.
Otherwise, the motor may burn out.
(5) Periodically check the level of washer
fluid in the reservoir and refill if
required.
During cold weather, add a recom-
mended washer solution that will not
freeze in the washer reservoir. Fail-
ure to do so could result in loss of
washer function and frost damage to
the system components.
E16A058A
Hazard warning flasher switch
EE16A-Dd
Use the hazard warning flasher switch
when the vehicle has to be parked on the
road for any emergency.
The hazard warning flashers can always be
operated, regardless of the position of the
ignition key.
Push the switch to turn on the hazard warn-
ing flashers; push the switch again to turn
them off.
When this switch is operated, all turn-signal
lamps flash continuously, as do the
turn-signal indication lamps in the instru-
ment cluster.
CAUTION
If the lamps are kept flashing for a
long time, the battery will be dis-
charged, making it difficult or impos-
sible to start the engine.

8. Air conditioning operation indicator
This illuminates when the air conditioning
is operating.
CAUTION
In the 3500 models, if the air condi-
tioning operation indicator blinks on
and off, there may be a fault with the
air conditioner. If this happens, stop
the vehicle in a safe place, switch the
engine off, then switch it on again. If
the air conditioning operation indi-
cator stops blinking after this, there
is nothing wrong. If it starts blink-
ing again, have the air conditioning
system checked at an authorised
MITSUBISHI dealer.
