Engine malfunction indicator (“SERVICE
ENGINE SOON” or “Check engine light”)
N00520500729
This indicator is a part of the onboard diagnostic (OBD) sys-
tem which monitors the emissions, engine control system or
continuously variable transmission (CVT) control system /
Twin Clutch SST control system. If a problem is detected in
one of these systems, this indicator comes on. When the igni-
tion switch is turned to the “ON” position, this indicator nor-
mally comes on and goes off after the engine has started.
This indicator will come on if the fuel tank filler cap is not
properly tightened. If this indicator comes on and stays on after
refueling, stop the engine and check that the cap is properly
tightened. (Turn the cap clockwise until you hear clicking
sounds.)
If this indicator does not go off after several seconds or lights
up while driving, have the system checked as soon as possible
at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of
your choice.
CAUTION
!
If the brake warning light and the anti-lock braking
system warning light are illuminated at the same
time, the braking force distribution function will not
operate, so the vehicle may be destabilized during
sudden braking under the following conditions.
• When the brake warning light does not go out even
when the parking brake is released.
• When the brake warning light stays on while driv-
ing.
• If the above occurs, avoid sudden braking and
high-speed driving. Park the vehicle in a safe
place, and contact an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice as
soon as possible.

The vehicle should be brought to a halt in the follow-
ing manner when brake performance is deterio-
rated.
• Confirm that the vehicle slows down when you
press down on the brake pedal harder than usual.
In some cases, the brake pedal may go all the way
to the floor.
• Should the brakes fail, use engine braking to
reduce your speed and slowly apply the parking
brake.
Depress the brake pedal to illuminate the stop
lights to alert the vehicles behind you.

Do not suddenly apply the parking brake while driv-
ing. This may cause the rear wheels to lock and
cause an accident.
CAUTION
!
Driving for a long time with the engine malfunction
indicator on may cause more damage to the emission
control system. This could also affect fuel economy
and drivability.
If this indicator does not come on when the ignition
key is turned to the “ON” position, have the system
checked at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer
or a repair facility of your choice.

Speaker enrollment function
N00564700011
The Bluetooth
® 2.0 interface can use the speaker enrollment
function to create a voice model for one person per language.
This makes it easier for the Bluetooth
® 2.0 interface to recogn-
ise voice commands said by you.
You can turn a voice model registered with the speaker enroll-
ment function on and off whenever you want.
Speaker enrollment
N00564800025
It takes about 2 to 3 minutes to complete the speaker enroll-
ment process.
To ensure the best results, run through the process while in the
driver’s seat, in an environment that is as quiet as possible
(when there is no rain or strong winds and the vehicle windows
are closed). Please turn off your phone while in speaker enroll-
ment to prevent interruption of the process.
Use the following procedure for speaker enrollment.
1. Stop your vehicle in a safe area, put the shift lever (man-
ual transaxle) in the “N”(Neutral) position, or the selector
lever {continuously variable transmission (CVT)} or
gearshift lever (Twin Clutch SST) in the “P”(PARK) posi-
tion, and then pull the parking brake lever.NOTE
Speaker enrollment is not possible unless the vehicle is
parked. Make sure you park the vehicle in a safe area
before attempting speaker enrollment.
2. Press the SPEECH button.
3. Say “Voice training.”4. The voice guide will say “This operation must be per-
formed in a quiet environment while the vehicle is
stopped. See the owner’s manual for the list of required
training phrases. Press and release the SPEECH button
when you are ready to begin. Press the HANG-UP button
to cancel at any time.”
Press the SPEECH button to start the speaker enrollment
process.
NOTE
If you do not start the speaker enrollment process within 3
minutes after pressing the SPEECH button, the speaker
enrollment function will time out.
The voice guide will say “Speaker enrollment has timed
out.” The system will then beep and the voice recognition
mode will be deactivated.
5. The voice guide will prompt for phrase 1. Repeat the cor-
responding phrase listed in table “Enrollment commands”
on page 3-282.
The system will register your voice and then move on to
the registration of the next command. Continue the pro-
cess until all phrases have been registered.NOTE
To repeat the most recent voice training command, press
and release the SPEECH button.

If you press the HANG-UP button anytime during the pro-
cess, the system will beep and stop the speaker enrollment
process.

end the pairing process. To register a new device, delete
one device and then repeat the pairing process.
(Refer to “Deleting a device” on page 3-266.)
6. The voice guide will say “Please say a 4-digit pairing
code.” Say a 4-digit number.
When the confirmation function is on, the system will
confirm whether the number said is acceptable. Answer
“Yes.”
Answer “No” to return to pairing code selection.NOTE
Some Bluetooth
® devices require a specific pairing code.
Please refer to the device manual for pairing code require-
ments.

The pairing code entered here is only used for the

4-8 Driving safety
4Braking
N00629500446
All the parts of the brake system are critical to safety. Have the
vehicle serviced by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or
a repair facility of your choice at regular intervals according to
the “WARRANTY AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL”.When brakes are wetCheck the brake system while driving at a low speed immedi-
ately after starting, especially when the brakes are wet, to con-
firm they work normally.
A film of water can be formed on the brake discs or brake
drums and prevent normal braking after driving in heavy rain
or through large puddles, or after the vehicle is washed. If this
occurs, dry the brakes out by driving slowly while lightly
depressing the brake pedal.When driving in cold weatherOn snowy roads, ice can form on the braking system, making
the brakes less effective. While driving in such conditions, pay
close attention to preceding and following vehicles and to the
condition of the road surface. From time to time, lightly
depress the brake pedal and check how effective the brakes are.When driving downhillIt is important to take advantage of the engine braking by shift-
ing to a lower gear while driving on steep downhill roads in
order to prevent the brakes from overheating.
Parking
N00629600287
Parking on a hillWhen parking on a hill, set the parking brake, and turn the
front wheels toward the curb on a downhill, or away from the
curb on an uphill.
If necessary, apply chocks to wheels.For vehicles with manual transaxlePlace the gearshift lever into the “R” (Reverse) position when
parking on a downhill slope, into the 1st position when parking
on an uphill slope.For vehicles with continuously variable transmission
(CVT) or Twin Clutch SSTBe sure that the parking brake is firmly set when parked and
that the selector lever (CVT) or gearshift lever (Twin Clutch
SST) is in the “P” (PARK) position.
When parking on a hill, it is important to set the parking brake
before moving the selector lever (CVT) or gearshift lever
(Twin Clutch SST) to the “P” (PARK) position. This prevents
loading the parking brake against the transaxle gear. When this
happens, it is difficult to move the selector lever (CVT) or
gearshift lever (Twin Clutch SST) out of the “P” (PARK) posi-
tion.Parking with the engine runningNever leave the engine running while you take a short
sleep/rest. Also, never leave the engine running in a closed or
poorly ventilated place.
