Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked
monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure rec-
ommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard
or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a
different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or
tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper
tire inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped
with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates
a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates,
you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and
inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly
under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to
tire failure.Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life,
and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire
maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain
correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the
level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure tell-
tale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction
indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire
pressure telltale.
When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash
for approximately one minute and then remain continuously
illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent
vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may
not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, includ-
ing the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels
on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning prop-
erly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replac-
ing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that
the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS
to continue to function properly.

Rheostat meter illumination button
N00554900081
Each time you press this button, there is a sound and the bright-
ness of the instruments changes.NOTEYou can adjust to 8 different levels respectively for when
the tail lights are illuminated and when they are not.
If the vehicle is equipped with the automatic light control,
when the light switch is in the “AUTO” position, the
meter illumination switches automatically to the adjusted
brightness, depending on the brightness outside the vehi-
cle.
The brightness level of the instruments is stored in mem-
ory when the ignition switch is turned off.
If you press and hold the button for longer than about 1
second, the brightness automatically scrolls through its
different levels, and stops scrolling when you release the
button. Select your desired level of brightness. (except for
vehicles equipped with the color multi-information dis-
play)
If you press and hold the button for longer than about 1
second when the parking lights are illuminated, the bright-
ness level changes to the maximum level. Pressing and
holding the button for longer than about 1 second again
returns the brightness level to the previous level. (for
vehicles equipped with the color multi-information dis-
play)

NOTEDo not disconnect the battery cable when the engine mal-
function indicator (“SERVICE ENGINE SOON” or
“Check engine light”) is on.
The engine electronic control module stores critical OBD
information (especially exhaust emission data), which
may be lost if the battery cable is disconnected while the
engine malfunction indicator is on. This will make it diffi-
cult to diagnose the cause of future problems.
Charging system warning light
N00520600296
This light comes on in the event of a malfunction in the charg-
ing system or when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON”
position (engine off). A warning is also displayed in the multi-
information display. When the engine is started, the light
should go out. Check to make sure that the light has gone out
before driving.
If the engine malfunction indicator comes on while
the engine is running, avoid driving at high speeds.
During vehicle operation with the indicator on, the
vehicle may not accelerate when you depress the
accelerator pedal.
When the vehicle is stationary with the indicator on,
you must depress the brake pedal more firmly than
usual since the engine idling speed is higher than
usual and a vehicle with a CVT or a Twin Clutch
SST has a stronger tendency to creep forward.
CAUTION
!
CAUTION
!If the warning light stays on while the engine is run-
ning, park your vehicle in a safe place as soon as
possible and contact an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice to
have the system checked.

NOTETo protect the rubber parts of the wipers, this operation of
the wipers does not take place when the vehicle is station-
ary and the ambient temperature is about 32 °F (0 °C) or
lower.
Do not cover the sensor by affixing a sticker or label to the
windshield. Also, do not put any water-repellent coating
on the windshield. The rain sensor would not be able to
detect the extent of rain, and the wipers might stop work-
ing normally.
In the following cases, the rain sensor may be malfunc-
tioning. Have the vehicle checked at an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your
choice.
• When the wipers operate at a constant interval despite
changes in the extent of rain.
• When the wipers do not operate even though it is rain-
ing.
The wipers may automatically operate when things such
as rain, dust, mud, insects, tree sap, oil or salt are affixed
to the windshield on top of the rain sensor or when the
windshield is frozen. (operation may also occur due to
strong electromagnetic waves, etc.) Objects affixed to the
windshield will stop the wipers when the wipers cannot
remove them.
To make the wipers operate again, move the lever to the
“LO” or “HI” position.
Contact an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a
repair facility of your choice when replacing the wind-
shield glass.
CAUTION
!With the ignition switch in the “ON” position and
the lever in the “AUTO” position, the wipers may
automatically operate in the situations described
below.
• When cleaning the outside surface of the wind-
shield, if you touch the rain sensor.
• When cleaning the outside surface of the wind-
shield, if you wipe with a cloth the rain sensor.
• When using an automatic car wash.
• A physical shock is applied to the windshield.
• A physical shock is applied to the rain sensor.If your hands get trapped, you could suffer injuries
or the wipers could malfunction. To deactivate the
rain sensor, place the lever in the “OFF” position.

NOTEWhen you press the SPEECH button to enter voice recog-
nition mode with a cellular phone paired to the system,
current information on the cellular phone, such as
“remaining battery life,” “signal strength” or “roaming,”
will be displayed on the audio display.* (Refer to “Pairing
a cellular phone” on page 3-246.)
*: Some cellular phones will not send this information to
the Hands-free Bluetooth
® cellular phone interface sys-
tem with voice recognition.

Voice recognition function
N00506600104
The Hands-free Bluetooth
® cellular phone interface system
with voice recognition is equipped with a voice recognition
function. Your voice will be recognized by a microphone in the
dome light (front), allowing you to make hands-free calls with
voice commands.
Voice recognition is possible in US English, North American
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.
NOTEIf 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.
Selecting the LanguageThere are two ways to change the language. NOTEThe more entries that are registered in the phonebook, the
longer it will take to change the language.
