screen

by pulling the lever towards you. The wip-
ers operate automatically several times while the

INT - The wiper operates continuously
for several seconds then operates
intermittently at intervals of about
every 8 seconds.
OFF - Off - The washer fluid will be sprayed
onto the rear window when the
knob
is turned fully in either direc-
tion.
The wipers operate automatically
several times while the washer flu-
id is being sprayed.
NOTE l To

ensure a clear rearward view, the wiper
performs several continuous operations when
the reverse gear is engaged while the switch
is in the “INT” position.
Following this continuous operation, the wip-
er will automatically switch to intermittent op-
eration.
l It is possible to activate the following func-
tions. For further information, we recom-
mend you to consult a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
• Adjustment of the interval for intermit-tent operation
• Changing intermittent wiper operation to continuous wiper operation Precautions to observe when using wip-
ers and washers
E00507600131
l If

the moving wipers become blocked by ice
or other deposits on the glass, the motor may
burn out even if the wiper switch is turned to
OFF. If obstruction occurs, park your vehicle
in a safe place, turn off the electric motor
switch, and clean the deposits from the glass
so that the wipers operate smoothly.
l Do not use the wipers when the glass is dry.
They may scratch the glass surface and the
blades wear out prematurely.
l Before using the wipers in cold weather,
check that the wiper blades are not frozen on-
to the glass. The motor may burn out if the
wipers are used with the blades frozen onto
the glass.
l Avoid using the washer continuously for
more than 20 seconds. Do not operate the
washer when the fluid reservoir is empty.
Otherwise, the motor may burn out.
l Periodically check the level of washer fluid
in the reservoir and refill if required.
During cold weather, add a recommended
washer solution that will not freeze in the
washer reservoir. Failure to do so could re-
sult in loss of washer function and frost dam-
age to the system components. Rear window demister switch

Retracting and extending the outside
mirrors E00601100669
The outside mirror can be folded in towards the
side

window to prevent damage when parking in
narrow areas. CAUTION
l
Do
not drive the vehicle with the mirror
folded in.
The lack of rearward visibility normally
provided by the mirror could lead to an
accident.
With the electric motor switch in the “ON” or
“ACC”
position, push the mirror retractor switch to
retract the mirrors.
Push it again to extend the mirrors to their original
positions.
After turning the electric motor switch to the
“LOCK” position, it is possible to retract and ex-
tend the mirrors using the mirror retractor switch
for about 30 seconds. CAUTION
l
It
is possible to retract and extend the mir-
rors by hand. After retracting a mirror us-
ing the mirror retractor switch, however,
you should extend it by using the switch
again, not by hand. If you extended the
mirror by hand after retracting it using
the switch, it would not properly lock in
position. As a result, it could move be-
cause of the wind or vibration while you
are driving, taking away your rearward
visibility.
NOTE l Be

careful not to get your hands trapped
while a mirror is moving.
l The mirrors can be retracted or extended
with the keyless entry system remote control
switch. Refer to “Keyless entry system” on
page 2-03.
l If you move a mirror by hand or it moves af-
ter hitting a person or object, you may not be
able to return it to its original position using
the mirror retractor switch. If this happens,
push the mirror retractor switch to place the
mirror in its retracted position and then push
the switch again to return the mirror to its orig-
inal position.
l When freezing has occurred and mirrors fail
to operate as intended, please refrain from re-
peated pushing of the retractor switch as this
action can result in burn-out of the mirror mo-
tor circuits. Starting and driving
