2011 MITSUBISHI TRITON ignition

indication lamp is illuminated when the Active
Stability Control function is OFF. CAUTION
l
When indication lamp blinks, Active
Stability Control function or active
trac-
tion control function is operating, which
means that the road is slippery or that
your vehicle’s wheels are slipping exces-
sively. If this happens, drive slower with
less accelerator input.
l If an abnormal condition occurs in the sys-
tem while driving, the indication lamp
will illuminate.
In these cases, follow these procedures: CAUTION
• If the temperature in the braking sys-
tem continues to increase

due to con-
tinuous brake control on a slippery
road surface, the indication lamp
will illuminate, and operation of

the
Active Stability Control function and
active traction control function will be
suspended to protect the brake sys-
tem. (Normal operation of the vehicle
will not be affected.) Park your vehi-
cle in a safe place. When the tempera-
ture in the braking system has come
down, the indication lamp will go
off and the Active Stability

Control
function and active traction control
function will start operating again.
• If the indication lamp does not go
out even though the above

procedure
is followed, there could be a problem
in the system.
Stop the engine and start the engine
again and check whether the indi-
cation lamp goes out. If

the indication
lamp goes out, there is no abnormal
condition.
If the indication lamp illuminates
even after your vehicle is

driven a
short distance after restarting the en-
gine, we recommend you to have your
vehicle checked as soon as possible. CAUTION
l
If the vehicle is
towed
with the ignition
switch in the “ON” position and only the
front wheels or only the rear wheels
raised off the ground, the ASTC may op-
erate, resulting in an accident. When tow-
ing the vehicle with the front wheels
raised, keep the ignition switch in the
“LOCK” or “ACC” position. When tow-
ing the vehicle with the rear wheels
raised, keep the ignition switch in the
“ACC” position.
Refer to “Towing” on page 6-20. 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
