DPF warning lamp
The DPF
warning
lamp comes on or flashes in the
event of an abnormality in the DPF system. Provi-
ded the DPF system is working normally, the DPF
warning lamp comes on when the ignition switch is
turned to the “ON” position and goes off a few sec-
onds later. If the DPF warning lamp comes on dur-
ing vehicle operation
Steady illumination
of

the DPF warning lamp
shows that the DPF has not been able to burn away
all of the trapped PM and that, as a result, an exces-
sive amount of PM has accumulated inside it. To en-
able the DPF to burn away the PM, try to drive the
vehicle as follows:
l With the needle of the water temperature
gauge stabilized in roughly the middle of the
scale, drive for about 20 minutes at a speed
of at least 40 km/h (24 mph).
If the DPF warning lamp subsequently stays on, con-
tact your MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point. CAUTION
l
You do not
have to continuously drive ex-
actly as indicated above. Always strive to
drive safely in accordance with road con-
ditions.
If the DPF warning lamp flashes dur-
ing vehicle operation
Flashing of the

DPF warning lamp indicates an ab-
normality in the DPF system. Have the system in-
spected at a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point. CAUTION
l
Continuing to
drive
with the DPF warn-
ing lamp flashing could result in engine
trouble and DPF damage. Manual transmission
E00602000072
The shift pattern

is shown on the gearshift lever
knob. Be sure to always fully depress the clutch ped-
al before attempting to shift the lever. CAUTION
l
Do not move
the gearshift lever into re-
verse while the vehicle is moving for-
ward; doing so will damage the transmis-
sion.
l Do not rest your foot on the clutch pedal
while driving as this will cause premature
clutch wear or damage. Starting and driving

Automatic transmission
INVECS-II Sports Mode 5A/T
(Intelligent & Innovative Vehicle Electronic Control System II) E00603200101
Designed for
optimum control and equipped with
adaptive control capabilities, the electronically con-
trolled transmission optimally matches gear shifts
to almost all driving and road conditions. CAUTION
l
This system
is
strictly intended to provide
supplementary functions. When travel-
ling downhill under certain conditions or
immediately after starting off when the au-
tomatic transmission is cold, no automat-
ic shiftdown may be made. The driver
should shiftdown to a lower gear to use en-
gine braking. Try to drive safely at all time.
NOTE l During
running-in period

or immediately af-
ter reconnection of the battery cable, there
may be a case where gear shifts are not made
smoothly. This does not indicate a faulty trans-
mission.
Gear shifts will become smooth after the trans-
mission has been shifted several times by the
electronic control system.
Selector lever operation E00603300522
The transmission has 5 forward gears and 1 reverse
gear. The individual gears are selected automatically, de-
pending
on the

position of the gear selector lever,
the speed of the vehicle and the position of the ac-
celerator pedal.
The selector lever has 2 gates; the main gate (1)
and the manual gate (2). In the main gate, the selector lever has 4 positions,
and is equipped
with a lock button (A) to avoid in-
advertent selection of the wrong gear. The lock button must be pushed while
the brake
pedal

is depressed to move the
selector lever. The lock button must be pushed to move
the selector lever.
The lock button need not be pushed to
move the selector lever. Starting and driving

Sports mode
E00603901176
Whether the vehicle
is stationary or in motion,
sports mode is selected by gently pushing the selec-
tor lever from the “D” (DRIVE) position into the
manual gate (A). To return to “D” range operation,
gently push the selector lever back into the main
gate (B).

In sports mode, gear shifts can be made rapidly sim-
ply by moving the selector lever backward and for-
ward. In contrast to a manual transmission, the
sports mode allows gear shifts with the accelerator
pedal depressed.
SHIFT UP
SHIFT DOWN + (SHIFT UP)
Push the
lever

forward once to shift up one gear.

- (SHIFT DOWN)
Pull the lever backward once to shift down one
gear. CAUTION
l
In sports mode,
the driver must execute
upward shifts in accordance with prevail-
ing road conditions, taking care to keep
the engine speed below the red zone.
l By rapidly moving the selector lever back-
ward (SHIFT DOWN) twice, it is possible
to skip one gear, i.e., 3 rd
to 1 st
, 4 th
to 2 nd
or 5 th
to 3 rd
. Since sudden engine braking
and/or rapid acceleration can cause a loss
of traction, however, downshifts must be
made carefully in accordance with the ve-
hicle’s speed.
NOTE l In
sports mode,

only the 5 forward gears can
be selected. To reverse or park the vehicle,
move the selector lever to the “R” (RE-
VERSE) or “P” (PARK) position as required.
l To maintain good running performance, the
transmission may refuse to perform an up-
shift when the selector lever is moved to the
“+ (SHIFT UP)” position at certain vehicle
speeds. Also, to prevent over-revving of the
engine, the transmission may refuse to per-
form a downshift when the lever is moved to
the “- (SHIFT DOWN)” position at certain
vehicle speeds.
l In sports mode, downward shifts are made au-
tomatically when the vehicle slows down.
When the vehicle stops, the 1 st
gear is auto-
matically selected. l
When
driving
away
on a slippery road, push
the selector lever forward into the
“+ (SHIFT UP)” position. This causes the
transmission to shift into the 2 nd
gear which
is better for smooth driving away on a slip-
pery road. Push the selector lever to the
“- (SHIFT DOWN)” side to shift back to the
1 st
gear.
Sports mode indicator E00612300254
In sports mode, the currently selected position is in-
dicated by the

indicator (A) shown on the instru-
ment panel. NOTE
l When
sports mode

is selected, the “D” indi-
cator goes off. Starting and driving
