HeadlightsNOTE
Do not leave the headlights and other lights on for a long
period of time when the engine is not running. The battery
will run down.

When it rains, or when the vehicle has been washed, the
inside of the lens sometimes becomes foggy. This is the
same as when window glass mists up on a humid day, and
does not indicate a problem. When the light is switched
on, the heat will dry out the fog. However, if water col-
lects inside the light, have it checked by an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your
choice.
Type 1Rotate the switch to operate the lights.
As your vehicle is equipped with daytime running lights, the
combinations of switch operations and illuminated lights differ
in accordance with the following conditions.

Precautions to observe when using wipers and
washers
N00523500209
NOTE
Do not use the wipers when the windshield is dry. This
could scratch the glass and wear the wiper blades prema-
turely.

Before using the wipers in cold weather, check to be sure
that the wiper blades are not frozen to the windshield.
Using the wipers while the blades are frozen could cause
the wiper motor to burn out.

If the wipers become blocked by ice or other deposits on
the glass, the motor may still burn out even if the wiper
switch is OFF. If deposits form on the windshield, park
your vehicle in a safe place, turn off the engine, and clean
the glass so that the wipers can operate smoothly.

Avoid using the washer for more than 20 seconds at a
time. Do not operate the washer when the fluid reservoir
is empty or the pump may fail.

During cold weather, add a recommended washer solution
that will not freeze in the washer reservoir. Otherwise the
washer may not work or may be damaged.

Replace the wiper blades when they are worn. Use the
proper size replacement blades. If you have questions, ask
your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.

N00523700315
The electric rear window defogger can be used when the
engine is running.
The indicator light (A) will come on when you press the elec-
tric rear window defogger switch. Electric current will flow
through the heating wires on the rear window to help clear
away moisture or frost.
After about 20 minutes of operation, the system will shut off
automatically.
To switch the defogger OFF before 20 minutes have passed,
press the switch again. The indicator light will go out and the
defogger will turn off.
If you need the defogger for more than 20 minutes, press the
switch again. This will add 20 more minutes.
CAUTION
!
If the washer is used in cold weather, the washer
fluid sprayed onto the glass might freeze, blocking
your view. In cold weather, heat the glass with the
defroster before using the washer.

Voice recognition function
N00506600104
The Hands-free Bluetooth
® cellular phone interface system

Spanish and Canadian French. The factory setting is US
English.
Some of the voice commands indicated below have a number
of alternative commands. For a table showing the voice com-
mands in each language and the corresponding alternative
commands, refer to “Commands and Alternatives” on page 3-
260.
NOTE
If the voice command that you say differs from the pre-
defined command or cannot be recognized due to ambient
noise or some other reason, the Hands-free Bluetooth
®
cellular phone interface system with voice recognition
will ask you for the voice command again up to 3 times.

For best performance and further reduction of ambient
noise, the vehicle windows should be closed while engag-
ing the voice recognition function.
