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)
position, 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 3-283.
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

4 Floor mat
N00628600017
The original equipment floor mat provided with your vehicle
was specifically designed for your vehicle. Always properly
position the floor mat and assure it does not interfere with
operation of the pedals. Always use the retaining clip on the
driver’s floorboard to secure the floor mat. When used, this clip
will help prevent the floor mat from moving forward and possi-
bly interfering with the operation of the pedals. To prevent the
floor mat from moving forward and possibly interfering with
the operation of the pedals, Mitsubishi genuine floor mats are
recommended.To install the floor mat
N00628700050
1. Place the floor mat to fit the shape of the floorboard.
2. Align the floor mat with the installation holes over the
retaining clips.3. Secure the floor mat with retaining clips.
NOTE
The shape of the mat and the number of retaining clips
may vary depending on the vehicle model.
WA R N I N G
!
If a floor mat is the wrong size or is not properly
installed, it can interfere with the operation of the
pedals. Interference with the pedals can cause unin-
tended acceleration and/or increased stopping dis-
tances resulting in a crash and injury. Always make
sure the floor mat does not interfere with the accel-
erator or brake pedal.
Always use the retaining clip on the driver’s floor-
board to secure the floor mat.

4 Vehicle preparation before driving
N00629000337
For a safer and more enjoyable trip, always observe the follow-
ing: Seat belts and seats
Before starting the vehicle, make certain that you and all
passengers are seated and wearing their seat belts properly
(with children in the rear seat, in appropriate restraints),
and that all the doors are locked.

Move the driver’s seat as far backward as possible, while
still keeping good visibility, and good control of the steer-
ing wheel, brakes, accelerator, and controls. Check the
instrument panel indicators and multi-information display
for any possible problem.

Move the front passenger seat as far back as possible.

Make sure that infants and small children are properly
restrained in accordance with all laws and regulations.Defrosters Check these by selecting the defroster mode, and set the blower
switch on high. You should be able to feel the air blowing
against the windshield.
(Refer to “Defrosting or defogging the windshield and door
windows” on page 5-10, 5-20, 5-29, 5-39, 5-49.)
Tires Check all the tires for heavy tread wear or uneven wear pat-
terns. Look for stones, nails, glass, or other objects stuck in the
tread. Look for any tread cuts or sidewall cracks. Check the
wheel nuts for tightness, and the tires (including spare tire) for
proper pressures. Replace your tires before they are heavily
worn out.
As your vehicle is equipped with a tire pressure monitoring
system, there is a risk of damage to the tire inflation pressure
sensors when the tire is replaced on the rim. Tire replacement
should, therefore, be performed only by an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer.Lights Have someone watch while you turn all the exterior lights on
and off. Also check the turn signal indicators and high-beam
indicators on the instrument panel. Fluid leaks Check the ground under the vehicle after parking overnight, for
fuel, water, oil, or other leaks. Make sure all the fluid levels are
correct. Also, if you can smell fuel, you need to find out why
immediately and have it fixed.

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.
