Information screen display list
N00557900040
When there is information to be announced, such as light
reminders, the tone sounds and the screen switches to the dis-
plays shown below. Refer to the appropriate page and take the
necessary measures.
When the cause of the warning display is eliminated, the warn-
ing display goes out automatically.
Refer to “Warning display list (With ignition switch in the
“OFF” position)” on page 3-204.
Refer to “Warning display list (With ignition switch in the
“ON” position)” on page 3-207.
Refer to “Other interrupt displays (With ignition switch in the
“ON” position)” on page 3-212.NOTE

In the following cases, a warning may be displayed on the
information screen and the buzzer may sound for a few
seconds, at times.
This is caused by the system picking up interference such
as strong electromagnetic waves or noise, and is not a
functional problem.
 An extremely strong electromagnetic wave is received
from a source such as an illegal radio set, a spark from a
wire, or a radar station.
 Abnormal voltage or a static electricity discharge is gen-
erated by the operation of installed electronics (includ-
ing after-market parts).
If the warning display has occurred a number of times,
take your vehicle to an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer or a repair facility of your choice and have the sys-
tem checked.
