2011 MITSUBISHI TRITON battery

If the warning lamp illuminates while
driving
E00607300663
If only the ABS warning lamp illuminates l Avoid hard braking and
high-speed
driving.
Stop the vehicle in a safe place.
Restart the engine and check to see whether
the lamp goes out after a few minutes driv-
ing; if it then remains off during driving,
there is no problem.
However, if the lamp does not go out, or if it
lights up again when the vehicle is driven,
we recommend you to have the vehicle
checked as soon as possible.
l The ABS warning lamp can illuminate if the
battery voltage is insufficient when the en-
gine is started. In this case, it does not indi-
cate an ABS fault.
Charge the battery by allowing the engine to
idle for a while.
If the battery has been charged but the ABS
warning lamp continues to illuminate or illu-
minates intermittently, have the vehicle in-
spected.
If the ABS warning lamp and brake warning
lamp illuminate at the same time l The ABS and brake force distribution func-
tion may not work, so hard braking could
make the vehicle unstable.
Avoid hard braking and high-speed driving.
Stop the vehicle in a safe place and contact a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point. NOTE
l Immediately
after the vehicle starts
moving
after engine start up, a whining sound of a mo-
tor will be heard from the engine compart-
ment. If the brake pedal is depressed at that
moment, you can feel the brake pedal pulsat-
ing.
This pulsation is due to the self-diagnosis op-
eration of the ABS and does not indicate a
malfunction.
l After driving on snowy roads, remove any
snow and ice which may have become ad-
hered to the wheel areas.
When doing this, be careful not to damage
the wheel speed sensors (A) and cables loca-
ted at each wheel on vehicles equipped with
an ABS.
Front
Rear l
The ABS becomes operative after the vehicle
has accelerated to a
speed

in excess of approx-
imately 10 km/h (6 mph). It stops operating
when the vehicle decelerates to a speed be-
low approximately 7 km/h (4 mph). Starting and driving

Cruise control*
E00609100779
Cruise control is an automatic
speed control system
that keeps a set speed. It can be activated at about
40 km/h (25 mph) or more. CAUTION
l
When you do not
wish
to drive at a set
speed, turn off the cruise control for safety.
l Do not use cruise control when driving
conditions will not allow you to stay at
the same speed, such as in heavy traffic
or on roads that are winding, icy, snow-
covered, wet, slippery, on a steep down-
hill slope.
l On vehicles with manual transmission, do
not move the gearshift lever to the “N”
(Neutral) position while driving at a set
speed without depressing the clutch ped-
al. The engine will run too fast and might
be damaged.
NOTE l Cruise
control may not be

able to keep your
speed on uphills or downhills.
l Your speed may decrease on a steep uphill.
You may use the accelerator pedal if you
want to stay at your set speed.
l Your speed may increase to more than the
set speed on a steep downhill. You must use
the brake to control your speed. As a result,
the set speed driving is deactivated. Cruise control switches
E00624100103 A- “ON OFF” switch
Used to turn on and off the cruise control.

B- “COAST SET” switch

set

speed and to set the desired
speed.

C- “ACC RES” switch

NOTE
l When operating the cruise control switches,
press the cruise control switches correctly.
The set speed driving may be deactivated au-
tomatically if two or more switches of the
cruise control are pressed at the same time. To activate
E00609300771
1. With the ignition
switch in

the “ON” posi-
tion, press the “ON OFF” switch (A) to turn
on the cruise control. The “CRUISE” indica-

the cruise control is

on when the ignition
switch is turned to the “LOCK” or “ACC” po-
sition, cruise control will be on automatically
the next time you start the engine.
The “CRUISE” indication lamp will also be
on.
l If the battery voltage is insufficient, the mem-
ory data for the cruise control may be erased.
As a result, the “CRUISE” indication lamp
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. Starting and driving

When the cigarette lighter socket is used
as a power source for an electric appli-
ance, be sure that the electric appliance
operates at 12 V and has an electric ca-
pacity of 120 W or less. In addition, long
use of the electric appliance without run-
ning the engine may run down the battery. Accessory socket*

device,
make sure it is rated at 12 V and its elec-
trical capacity does not exceed 120 W. Re-
member that prolonged use of an electri-
cal device with the engine off could run
down the battery.
l When the accessory socket is not in use,
be sure to close the cap, because the sock-
et might become clogged by foreign mate-
rial and be short-circuited.

If the vehicle breaks down
E00800101166
If the vehicle breaks down
on the road, move it to
the shoulder and use the hazard warning flashers and/
or the warning triangle etc.
Refer to “Hazard warning flasher switch” on page
3-34.
If the engine stops/fails
Vehicle operation and control are affected if the en-
gine stops.
Before moving the vehicle to a safe area, be aware
of the following:
l The brake booster becomes inoperative and
the pedal effort will increase. Press down the
brake pedal harder than usual.
l Since the power steering pump is no longer
operative, the steering wheel feels heavy
when turning it. Emergency starting
E00800502112
If the engine cannot be
started because the battery
is weak or dead, the battery from another vehicle
can be used with jumper cables to start the engine. WARNING
l To start the engine
using
jumper cables
connected from another vehicle, perform
the correct procedures according to the in-
struction manual. Incorrect procedures
could result in a fire or explosion or dam-
age to the vehicles.
1. Get the vehicles close enough so the jumper
cables can
reach, but

be sure the vehicles
aren’t touching each other.
If they are, it could cause a ground connec-
tion you don’t want. The vehicle will not
start, and the bad grounding could damage
the electrical systems. CAUTION
l
Check the other vehicle.
It
must have a 12-
volt battery.
If the other system isn’t 12-volt, shorting
can damage both vehicles.
2. You could be injured if the vehicles move.
Set the
parking brake

firmly on each vehicle.
Put an automatic transmission in “P”
(PARK) or a manual transmission in “N”
(Neutral). Turn off the ignition switch. WARNING
l Turn off the ignition on
both vehicles be-
forehand.
Make sure that the cables or your clothes
cannot be caught by the fan or drive belt.
Personal injury could result.
NOTE l Turn
off all lamps, heater

and other electrical
loads. This will avoid sparks and help save
both batteries.
3. Make sure battery electrolyte is at the proper level.
Refer to “Battery” on page 8-10. WARNING
l If electrolyte fluid is
not
visible, or ap-
pears to be frozen, Do Not Attempt Jump
Starting!
A battery might rupture or explode if the
temperature is below the freezing point
or if it is not filled to the proper level.
4. Connect one end of one jumper cable to the
positive (+)
terminal of

the discharged bat-
tery (A), and the other end to the positive (+)
terminal of the booster battery (B).
