N00518300472
Cruise control is an automatic speed control system that keeps
a set speed. It can be activated at speeds from about 25 mph
(40 km/h). Cruise control does not work at speeds below about
25 mph (40 km/h).NOTECruise control may not be able to keep your speed on
uphills or downhills.
Your speed may decrease on a steep uphill. You may use
the accelerator pedal if you want to stay at your set speed.
Your speed may increase to more than the set speed on a
steep downhill. You have to use the brake to control your
speed. As a result, the set speed driving is deactivated.
Cruise control switchesA- “ON OFF” switch
Used to turn on and off the cruise control.
B- “COAST SET” switch
Used to reduce the set speed and to set the desired speed.
C- “ACC RES” switch
Used to increase the set speed and to return to the original set
speed.
D- “CANCEL” switch
Used to deactivate the set speed driving.
CAUTION
!When you do not wish to drive at a set speed, turn
off the cruise control for safety.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 downhill
slope.On vehicles with manual transaxle, do not move the
gearshift lever to the “N” (Neutral) position while
driving at a set speed without depressing the clutch
pedal. The engine will run too fast and might be
damaged.

NOTEIf the cruise control is on when the ignition switch is
turned to “LOCK” or “ACC” position, cruise control will
be on automatically the next time you start the engine.
The “CRUISE” indicator light will also be on.
If the battery voltage is insufficient, the memory data for
the cruise control may be erased.
As a result, the “CRUISE” indicator light 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.
2. Confirm that the Twin Clutch SST control mode is set to
“Normal”.
Refer to “Twin Clutch SST control mode” on page 3-103.NOTEThe cruising speed cannot be set when the Twin Clutch
SST control mode is set to “Sport” mode or “S-Sport”
mode.3. Accelerate or decelerate to your desired speed, then press
and release the “COAST SET” switch (B) when the
“CRUISE” indicator light is illuminated. The vehicle will
then maintain the desired speed.
NOTEWhen you release the “COAST SET” switch, the vehicle
speed will be set.

To deactivate
N00518800507
The set speed driving can be deactivated as follows:
Press the “ON OFF” switch (A). (Cruise control will be
turned off.)
Press the “CANCEL” switch (D).
Depress the brake pedal.The set speed driving is deactivated automatically in any of the
following ways.
When you depress the clutch pedal (on vehicles with man-
ual transaxle).
When your speed slows to about 10 mph (15 km/h) or
more below the set speed because of a hill, etc.
When your speed slows to about 25 mph (40 km/h) or
less.
When the Twin Clutch SST control mode is set to “Sport”
mode.
Refer to “Twin Clutch SST control mode” on page 3-103.
When the active stability control (ASC) starts operating.
Refer to “Active stability control (ASC)” on page 3-129.
WA R N I N G
!On vehicles with Twin Clutch SST, although the set
speed driving will be deactivated when shifting to
the “N” (NEUTRAL) position, never move the gear-
shift lever to the “N” (NEUTRAL) position while
driving.
You would have no engine braking and could cause
a serious accident.

Also, the set speed driving may be deactivated as follow:
When the engine speed rises and approaches the tachome-
ter’s red zone (the red-colored part of the tachometer dial).
To resume the set speed
N00518900234
If the set speed driving is deactivated by the condition
described in “To deactivate” on page 3-142, you can resume
the previously set speed by pressing the “ACC RES” switch
(C) while driving at a speed of about 25 mph (40 km/h) or
higher.
Under either of the following conditions, however, using the
switch does not allow you to resume the previously set speed.
In these situations, repeat the speed setting procedure:
The “ON OFF” switch is pressed.
The ignition switch is turned OFF.
“CRUISE” indicator light is turned OFF.
CAUTION
!When the set speed driving is deactivated automati-
cally in any situation other than those listed above,
there may be a system malfunction.
Press the “ON OFF” switch to turn off the cruise
control and have your vehicle inspected by an autho-
rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.

Tire pressure monitoring system warning light /
display
N00554800110
When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position, the
tire pressure monitoring system warning light normally illumi-
nates and goes off a few seconds later.
If one or more of the vehicle tires (except for the spare tire) is
significantly under-inflated, the warning light will remain illu-
minated while the ignition switch is in the “ON” position.
Refer to “If the warning light/display illuminates while driv-
ing” on page 3-147 and take the necessary measures.NOTEIn addition, the warning display is displayed on the infor-
mation screen in the multi-information display.
CAUTION
!If the tire pressure monitoring system warning light
does not illuminate when the ignition switch is
turned to the “ON” position, it means that the tire
pressure monitoring system is not working properly.
Have the system inspected by an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
In such situations, a malfunctioning of the system
may be preventing the monitoring of the tire pres-
sure. Avoid sudden braking, sharp turning and
high-speed driving.If a malfunction is detected in the tire pressure mon-
itoring system, the tire pressure monitoring system
warning light will blink for approximately 1 minute
and then remain continuously illuminated. The
warning light will issue further warnings each time
the engine is restarted as long as the malfunction
exists.
Check to see whether the warning light goes off after
few minutes driving.
If it then goes off during driving, there is no prob-
lem.
However, if the warning light does not go off, or if it
blinks again when the engine is restarted, have the
vehicle inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer.
In such situations, a malfunctioning of the system
may be preventing the monitoring of the tire pres-
sure. For safety reasons, when the warning light
appears while driving, avoid sudden braking, sharp
turning and high-speed driving.

Ta c h o m e t e r
N00519200205
The tachometer shows engine revolutions per minute. This
allows the driver to determine the most efficient shift position
(manual transaxle) or (Twin Clutch SST) and engine speed
combinations.
This gauge also assists in evaluating engine performance.
Ty p e 2
CAUTION
!The red zone indicates an engine speed beyond the
range of safe operation.
Select the correct shift position (manual transaxle)
or (Twin Clutch SST) to control the engine speed so
that the tachometer indicator does not enter the red
zone
