Select the control mode from the following three types to suit
the driving conditions.
ACD control mode switch
N00545500023
When the ignition switch is set to the “ON” position, operate
the “AWC” switch to change the control mode.
Each time the switch is pushed, the control mode changes in
the order “TARMAC” → “GRAVEL” → “SNOW” → “TAR-
MAC”.NOTE

The control mode can be changed while the vehicle is
moving.


The selected control mode is stored in memory even if the
engine is stopped.
However, if a battery terminal is disconnected, the control
mode stored in memory will be erased and the control
mode will be set to the “TARMAC” mode.

ASC operation display, ASC OFF display or ASC
indicator
(if so equipped)
N00546500059
Indicator (if so equipped)
Display type 1
Display type 2
NOTE

The display may come on when you start the engine.
This means that the battery voltage momentarily dropped
when the engine was started. It does not indicate a mal-
function, provided that the display goes out immediately.


When a spare tire has been put on your vehicle, the grip-
ping ability of the tire will be lower, making it more likely
that the display will blink.
-ASC operation display
When the ASC is operating, the information screen in the
multi-information display will change and the ASC opera-
tion display will blink.
-ASC OFF display
The display is displayed when the ASC has been deac-
tivated with the “ASC OFF” switch.
-ASC indicator (if so equipped)
Indicator blinks when the ASC is operating.
CAUTION
!

When display blinks, ASC is operating, which
means that the road is slippery or that your vehicle’s
wheels are beginning to slip. If this happens, drive
slower.


If the temperature in the braking system continues
to increase due to continuous brake control on a
slippery road surface, the display will blink. To
prevent the brake system from overheating, the
brake control of the traction control function will be
temporarily suspended. The engine control of the
traction control function and normal brake opera-
tion will not be affected. Park your vehicle in a safe
place. When the temperature in the braking system
has come down, the display will be turned off and
the traction control function will start operating
again.

To activate
N00518400314
1. With the ignition switch in the “ON” position, press the
“ON OFF” switch (A) to turn on the cruise control. The
“CRUISE” indicator light in the meter cluster will come
on.
NOTE

If the cruise control is on when the ignition switch is
turned to “LOCK” or “ACC” position, cruise control will
be on automatically the next time you start the engine.
The “CRUISE” indicator light will also be on.


If the battery voltage is insufficient, the memory data for
the cruise control may be erased.
As a result, the “CRUISE” indicator light may not come
on when you restart the engine.
If this happens, press the “ON OFF” switch once again to
turn on the cruise control.

The tire pressure monitoring system may not work normally in
the following circumstances:

A wireless facility or device using the same frequency is
near the vehicle.


Snow or ice is stuck inside the fenders and/or on the
wheels.


The tire inflation pressure sensors’ battery is exhausted.


Wheels other than Mitsubishi genuine wheels are being
used.


Wheels that are not fitted with tire inflation pressure sen-
sors are being used.


Wheels whose ID codes are not memorized by the vehicle
are used.


Compact spare tire is fitted on a road wheel.
NOTE

Tire inflation pressures vary with the ambient tempera-
ture. If the vehicle is subjected to large variations in ambi-
ent temperature, the tire inflation pressures may be under-
inflated (causing the warning light to come on) when the
ambient temperature is relatively low. If the warning light
comes on, adjust the tire inflation pressure.
Whenever the tires and wheels are replaced with
new ones
N00532900111
If you use new wheels with new tire inflation pressure sensors,
their ID codes must be programmed into the tire pressure mon-
itoring system. Have tire and wheel replacement performed by
an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer to avoid the risk of
damaging the tire inflation pressure sensors. If the wheel
replacement is not done by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer, it is not covered by your warranty.
CAUTION
!

The use of non-genuine wheels will prevent the
proper fit of the tire inflation pressure sensors,
resulting in air leakage or damage of the sensors.

NOTE

If there is no warning display, the switching sequence is:
Odometer/Trip odometer → Odometer/Trip odometer
→ service reminder → Odometer/Trip odometer .


Both trip odometers and can count up to 9999.9
miles/kilometers.
When a trip odometer goes past 9999.9 miles/kilometers,
it returns to 0.0 miles/kilometers.


When the battery is disconnected, the memories of trip
odometer displays and are cleared, and their dis-
plays return to “0.0 miles/kilometers”.
Service reminder
N00555500039
Shows the distance and number of months until the next peri-
odic inspection.

The initial (default) setting is “Auto reset mode”.


The display setting can be changed to the preferred units
(mph or km/h).
Refer to “Changing the function settings (With ignition
switch in the “ON” position)” on page 3-187.


The average speed display memories for auto reset mode
and manual reset mode are erased if the battery is discon-
nected.
Average fuel consumption displayThis displays the average fuel consumption from the last reset
to the present.
There are 2 types of mode settings as follows.
For details on how to change the average fuel consumption dis-
play setting, refer to “Changing the function settings (With
ignition switch in the “ON” position)” on page 3-187.
The “ ” mark in the momentary fuel gauge shows the average
fuel consumption. (Type 2)
Manual reset mode

When the average fuel consumption is being displayed, if
you hold down the multi-information meter switch, the
average fuel consumption displayed at that time is reset.


When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position
from the “ACC” or “LOCK” position, the mode setting
changes automatically from manual to auto.
Switching to auto occurs automatically. If switching to
manual mode is done, however, the data from the last
reset is displayed.Auto reset mode


When the average fuel consumption is being displayed, if
you hold down the multi-information meter switch, these
calculations will be reset to zero.


When the ignition switch has been set to the “ACC” or
“LOCK” position for about 4 hours or more, the average
speed display will automatically reset.
NOTE

The average speed display and the average fuel consump-
tion display can be reset separately in both auto reset
mode and manual reset mode.


“---” is displayed when the average fuel consumption can-
not be measured.


The initial (default) setting is “Auto reset mode”.


Average fuel consumption may vary depend on the driv-
ing conditions (road conditions, how you drive, etc.) The
actual fuel consumption may differ from the fuel con-
sumption displayed, so treat the fuel consumption dis-
played as just a rough guideline.


The average fuel consumption display memories for auto
reset mode and manual reset mode are erased if the battery
is disconnected.


The display setting can be changed to the preferred units
{mpg (US), mpg (UK), L/100 km or km/L}.
Refer to “Changing the function settings (With ignition
switch in the “ON” position)” on page 3-187.
