Information screen display list
N00557900066
When there is information to be announced, such as light reminder, the tone sounds and the screen switches to the displays shown
below. Refer to the appropriate page and take the necessary measures.
When the cause of the warning display is eliminated, the warning display goes out automatically.
Refer to “Warning display list (With ignition switch in the “OFF” position)” on page 3-186.
Refer to “Warning display list (With ignition switch in the “ON” position)” on page 3-189.
Refer to “Other interrupt displays (With ignition switch in the “ON” position)” on page 3-194.NOTE
In the following cases, a warning may be displayed on the information screen and the buzzer may sound for a few seconds, at
times.
This is caused by the system picking up interference such as strong electromagnetic waves or noise, and is not a functional
problem.
• An extremely strong electromagnetic wave is received from a source such as an illegal radio set, a spark from a wire, or a
radar station.
• Abnormal voltage or a static electricity discharge is generated by the operation of your vehicle’s electronics (including after-
market parts).
If the warning display has occurred a number of times, take your vehicle to an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair
facility of your choice and have the system checked.
