Important point!Due to the large number of accessory and replacement parts
provided by different manufacturers in the market, it is not
always possible for an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer to
check whether the attachment or installation of non-Mitsubishi
Motors genuine parts will affect the driving safety of your
Mitsubishi-vehicle.
Modification/alterations to the electrical or fuel
systems
N00301800125
Mitsubishi Motors manufactures high quality vehicles with an
emphasis on safety. It is important to consult an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer before installation of any accessory
which may involve modification of the electrical or fuel sys-
tems.

!
If you choose to use a cellular phone while driving,
you must not allow that usage to distract you in the
safe operation of your vehicle. Anything, including
cellular phone usage, that distracts you from the
safe operation of your vehicle increases your risk of
an accident.
Refer to and follow all state and local laws in your
area regarding cellular phone usage while driving.
CAUTION
!
Please consult an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer concerning any such accessory fitment or
modification.
If the wires interfere with the vehicle body or
improper installation methods are used (protective
fuses not included, etc.), electronic devices may be
adversely affected, resulting in a fire, vehicle dam-
age, or other accident.

NOTE
A light in the instrument panel flashes to show when the
front and rear turn signal lights are working properly.
If this light flashes faster than usual, check for a burned
out lamp bulb or malfunctioning connection.
If the panel light does not come on when the lever is
moved, check for a blown fuse or a burned out bulb in the
panel.
Have the vehicle inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.

ing after the ignition key is removed. NOTE
If you keep the flashers on for several hours with the
engine turned off, the battery will run down.

Ventilation slotsThe ventilation slots in front of the windshield should be kept
clear of leaves or brushed clear after a heavy snowfall, so that
the operation of the heating and ventilation systems will not be
impaired.WeatherstrippingTo prevent freezing of the weatherstripping on the doors,
engine hood, etc., they should be treated with silicone grease.Additional equipment (For regions where snow is
encountered)It is a good idea to carry a shovel or a short-handled spade in
the vehicle during the winter so that you can clear away snow
if you get stranded. A small hand-brush for sweeping snow off
the vehicle and a plastic scraper for the windshield, side and
rear window are also useful.
Fuse links
N00942700099
The fuse links will melt to prevent a fire if a large current
attempts to flow through certain electrical systems.
In case of a melted fuse link, see your authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice for inspection
and replacement.
