INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS
Turn-signal indication lamps - greenED52A-Bb
These indication lamps blink on and off when a
turn-signal lamp is operating.
NOTE
If the blinking is too fast, the cause may be a faulty
turn-signal connection or a blown lamp bulb.
Hazard warning indication lamps - green
ED30A-A
When the hazard warning lamp switch is pressed, all
turn-signal lamps will flash on and off continuously.
High-beam indication lamp - blueED51A-Aa
This indication lamp illuminates when the high
beam is used.
Low fuel warning lamp - amberED63ABDa
The indication lamp illuminates on when the fuel
tank is getting low. Refuel as soon as possible.
CAUTIONOn petrol-powered vehicles, do not drive
with an extremely low fuel level, running
out of fuel could cause damage to the cat-
alytic converter.
NOTE
(1) On inclines or curves, due to the movement
of fuel in the tank, the low fuel indication lamp
may indicate incorrectly.
(2) When the engine on diesel-powered vehicles
fails to operate owing to running out of fuel, it
may sometimes not be restarted after refuel-
ing. This is due to air entering the fuel sys-
tem. Therefore, air must be bled from the
system. (Refer to the page 8-25.)
Door-ajar warning lamp - redED56A-Aa
This lamp illuminates when a door is either open
or incompletely closed.
CAUTIONBefore moving your vehicle, check that the
warning lamp is OFF.

indicator flashes.
1 - Turn-signals
When making a normal turn, use posi-
tion (1). The lever will return automat-
ically when cornering is completed.
There are times when the lever will
not return after cornering. This occurs
when the steering wheel is turned
only slightly. In such cases, return the
lever by hand.
2 - Lane-change signals
When changing lanes, use position
(2). It will return to the neutral position
when released.NOTE
If the lamp flashes unusually quickly, the
bulb in a turn-signal lamp may have failed.
Have the vehicle inspected by an autho-
rized MITSUBISHI dealer.

FOR EMERGENCIES
Replacement of lamp
bulbs
EN10A-Ab
Before replacing a bulb, ensure the lamp
is off. Do not touch the glass part of the
new bulb with your bare fingers; the skin
oil left on the glass will evaporate when
the bulb gets hot and the vapor will con-
dense on the reflector and dim the sur-
face.
Bulb capacityEN10BPXb
A bulb should only be replaced with a new
bulb of the same rating and type. The
designation can be found on the base of
the bulb.
