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.

Audio system anti-theft feature
E00710200348
To
prevent theft of the audio system, the control
knob can be removed. Always remove the control
knob when you leave the vehicle.
Removing the control knob
Slide the release button (A) to the right and remove
the control knob from the audio system.
The anti-theft function operates in two ways depend-
ing on the position of the ignition key. 1.
With
the key in the “ON” or “ACC” posi-
tion
The “Please refit the control panel.” indicator
will appear on the display. Any audio system
operation will be disabled while the “Please
refit the control panel.” indicator is displayed. 2.
With the key in the “LOCK” position
The

lamp (B) will start flashing to deter
thieves. NOTE
l When

sliding the release button, place one
hand on the control knob to prevent it from
falling out.
Refitting the control knob
Put the control knob back into the original position
and then push it until it clicks. The “Please refit the
control panel.” indicator will disappear or the lamp
(B) will stop flashing.
NOTE l Do not leave the control knob in any place
where it may become hot (for example, the
dashboard) or in any place where it may be-
come wet.
l If you lose the control knob, contact a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point. Handling of compact discs

only the type of compact discs that have
the mark shown in the illustration below.

l
The use of special shaped, damaged compact
discs (like cracked discs) or low-quality com-
pact discs (like warped discs or burrs on the
discs) such as those shown will damage the
CD player. l
In
the following circumstances, moisture can
form on discs and inside the audio system,
preventing normal operation. • When there is high humidity (for exam-ple, when it is raining). • When
the temperature suddenly rises,
such as right after the heater is turned on
in cold weather.

In this case, wait until the moisture has
had time to dry out.
l When the CD player is subjected to violent vi-
brations, such as during off-road driving, the
tracking may not work.
l When storing compact discs, always store
them in their separate cases. Never place com-
pact discs in direct sunlight, or in any place
where the temperature or humidity is high.
l Never touch the flat surface of the disc with-
out a label. This will damage the disc surface
and could affect the sound quality. When han-
dling a compact disc, always hold it by the
outer edge and the centre hole.
l To clean a disc, use a soft, clean, dry cloth.
Wipe directly from the centre hole towards
the outer edge. Do not wipe in a circle. Nev-
er use any chemicals such as benzine, paint
thinner, a disc spray cleaner, or an anti-static
agent on the disc. l
Do not use a ball point pen, felt pen, pencil,
etc. to write on the label surface of the disc.
l Do not put additional labels (A) or stickers
(B) on compact discs. Also, do not use any
compact disc on which a label or sticker has
started to peel off or any compact disc that
has stickiness or other contamination left by
a peeled-off label or sticker. If you use such
a compact disc, the CD player may stop work-
ing properly and you may not be able to eject
the compact disc. Notes on CD-Rs/RWs
E00725100039
l You
may have trouble playing back some
CD-R/RW discs recorded on CD recorders
(CD-R/RW drives), either due to their record-
ing characteristics or dirt, fingerprints,
scratches, etc. on the disc surface.
l CD-R/RW discs are less resistant to high tem-
peratures and high humidity than ordinary mu-
sic CDs. Leaving them inside a vehicle for ex-
tended periods may damage them and make
playback impossible. For pleasant driving
