CAUTION
l
If the lamp illuminates while
driving, immediately park your
vehicle in a safe place and we
recommend you to have it
checked. Power down warning lamp
E00530500039
If

this warning lamp illuminates, the pow-
er provided by the electric motor will be
reduced and the vehicle will only be able
to move at low speeds.
This warning lamp will illuminate;
l When the energy level in the trac-
tion battery is nearly empty.
l When temperature of the electric
motor unit or the traction battery
is too high or too low.
l When voltage of the traction bat-
tery becomes low.
If the energy level gauge shows 0 bar,
the traction battery is nearly empty and
must be charged as soon as possible. Re-
fer to “Charging” on page 1-02.
If the warning lamp illuminates when
the outside air temperature is very low,
move the vehicle to a warmer location. If the warning lamp illuminates after the
vehicle has been driven continuously up-
hill

or when the outside air temperature
is very high, stop the vehicle in a safe
place so the electric motor unit and/or
the traction battery can cool down.
When they have cooled down, the warn-
ing lamp will turn off. If the warning is
not cancelled, please contact a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point. CAUTION
l
When
the power down warning
lamp illuminates, the vehicle
will have decreased power and
vehicle speed. The reduced
speed may be lower than other
traffic, which could increase
the chance of a collision. Be es-
pecially careful when driving.
If the vehicle cannot maintain a
safe driving speed, pull to the
side of the road in a safe place.
NOTE l Illumination

of the power down
warning lamp does not indicate a
malfunction.
l If the power down warning lamp il-
luminates while the air condition-
ing is used, the cooling or heating
may stop operating and only the
fan will operate. Combination headlamps and
dipper switch E00506002099
Headlamps
NOTE l Do

not leave the lamps on for a long time
while the ready indicator is not illuminated.
A run-down auxiliary battery could result.
l When it rains, or when the vehicle has been
washed, the inside of the lens sometimes be-
comes foggy, but this does not indicate a func-
tional problem.
When the lamp is switched on, the heat will
remove the fog. However, if water gathers in-
side the lamp, we recommend you to have it
checked.
Rotate the switch to turn on the lamps. Instruments and controls
