NOTE
To avoid the risk of damage to the tire inflation pressure
sensors, have any punctured tire repaired by an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer. If the tire repair is not done by
an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer, it is not covered
by your warranty.

Do not use an aerosol puncture-repair product on any tire,
as it could damage the tire inflation pressure sensors.
Have any puncture repaired by an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer.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.

A window tint that affects the radio wave signals is
installed.
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.
WA R N I N G
!
If the warning light / display illuminates while you
are driving, avoid hard braking, sharp steering
maneuvers and high speeds. Driving with an under-
inflated tire adversely affects vehicle performance
and can result in an accident.
CAUTION
!
If a tire has a puncture, replace that tire with the
spare tire. Driving on a punctured tire could lead to
an accident.
The warning light / display may not illuminate
immediately in the event of a tire blowout or rapid
leak.

Whenever the tires and wheels are replaced with
new ones
N00532900065
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.
General information
N00533000193
Your tire pressure monitoring system operates on a radio fre-
quency subject to Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) Rules (For vehicles sold in U.S.A.) and Industry Canada
Rules (For vehicles sold in Canada). This device complies with
Part 15 of the FCC Rules and RSS-Gen of the Industry Canada
Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions.

This device may not cause harmful interference.

This device must accept any interference received, includ-
ing interference that may cause undesired operation.
CAUTION
!
The use of non-genuine wheels will prevent the
proper fit of the tire inflation pressure sensors,
resulting air leakage or damage of the sensors.
CAUTION
!
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by
the manufacturer for compliance could void the
user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Ta c h o m e t e r
N00519200276
The tachometer shows engine revolutions per minute. This
allows the driver to determine the most efficient shift position
(manual transaxle), selector position {continuously variable
transmission (CVT)} or shift position (Twin Clutch SST) and
engine speed combinations.
This gauge also assists in evaluating engine performance.
Ty p e 2
CAUTION
!
The red zone indicates an engine speed beyond the
range of safe operation.
Select the correct shift position (manual transaxle),
selector position (CVT) or gearshift position (Twin
Clutch SST) to control the engine speed so that the
tachometer indicator does not enter the red zone.

Rheostat meter illumination button
N00554900137
Each time you press this button, there is a sound and the bright-
ness of the instruments changes.NOTE
You 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 a position other than the “OFF”
position, the meter illumination switches automatically to
the adjusted brightness, depending on the brightness out-
side the vehicle.

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 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.
