2. Pull the lever (B) down while driving at the desired speed.NOTE
If the main switch is on when the ignition key is turned
off, cruise control will be on automatically the next time
you start the engine. The “CRUISE” control indicator will
also be on. You will need to reset the speed however, if
you want to use cruise control.

If the battery voltage is insufficient, the memory data for
the main switch will be erased.
As a result, the “CRUISE” control indicator may not
come on when you restart the engine.
If this happens, push in the main switch once again to acti-
vate the system.
To increase the set speed
N00518500230
There are 2 ways to increase the set speed.Cruise control lever Pull the cruise control lever up and hold it while driving at the
set speed, and your speed will then gradually increase.
When you reach your desired speed, release the switch. Your
cruising speed is now set.
To increase your speed in small amounts, press the cruise con-
trol lever up for less than 1 second and release it. Each time
you press the lever up, your vehicle will go about 1 mph
(1.6 km/h) faster.

To resume the set speed
N00518900188
If the speed memory has not been erased, resume the previ-
ously set speed by pulling the cruise control lever up while
driving at a speed of about 25 mph (40 km/h) or higher.
Under either of the following conditions, however, using the
switch does not allow you to resume the previously set speed.
In these situations, repeat the speed setting procedure:

The ignition key is turned OFF.

The main switch is turned OFF.
Tire pressure monitoring system
N00530200354
The tire pressure monitoring system uses tire inflation pressure
sensors (A) on the wheels to monitor the tire inflation pres-
sures. The system only indicates when a tire is significantly
under-inflated.
WA R N I N G
!
The 17-inch steel spare tire and compact spare tire
do not have a tire inflation pressure sensor.
When the 17-inch steel spare tire or compact spare
tire is used, the tire pressure monitoring system will
not work properly.
See an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer as soon
as possible to replace or repair the original tire.
In case of 18-inch
aluminum spare tire

NOTE
The tire pressure monitoring system is not a substitute for
regularly checking tire inflation pressures.
Be sure to check the tire inflation pressures as described in
“Tires” on page 7-20.

The tire inflation pressure sensor (A) is installed in the
illustrated location. Replace grommet (B) with a new one
when the tire is replaced.
For details, please contact your authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer.
Tire pressure monitoring system warning light
N00554800064
When the ignition key is turned to the “ON” position, this light
normally illuminates and goes off a few seconds later. If one or
more of the vehicle tires is significantly under-inflated, how-
ever, this light will remain illuminated while the key is in the
“ON” position.
Refer to “If the warning light illuminates while driving” on
page 3-72 and take the necessary measures.NOTE
Tire pressure monitoring system doesn’t monitor the spare
tire in luggage room, even if the tire inflation pressure
sensor is equipped.

Tire pressure monitoring system monitors the 18-inch alu-
minum spare tire when it is used.
CAUTION
!
If the tire pressure monitoring system warning light
does not illuminate when the ignition key is turned
to the “ON” position, it means that the tire pressure
monitoring system is not working properly. Have
the system inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer.
In such situations, a malfunctioning of the system
may be preventing the monitoring of the tire pres-
sure. Avoid sudden braking, sharp turning and
high-speed driving.

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.

If a malfunction is detected in the tire pressure mon-
itoring system, the tire pressure monitoring system
warning light will blink for approximately 1 minute
and then remain continuously illuminated. The
warning light will issue further warnings each time
the engine is restarted as long as the malfunction
exists.
Check to see whether the warning light goes off after
few minutes of driving.
If it then goes off during driving, there is no prob-
lem.
However, if the warning light does not go off, or if it
blinks again when the engine is restarted, have the
vehicle inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer.
In such situations, a malfunctioning of the system
may be preventing the monitoring of the tire pres-
sure. For safety reasons, when the warning light
appears while driving, avoid sudden braking, sharp
turning and high-speed driving.
