Information screen display list
N00557900040
When there is information to be announced, such as light
reminders, the tone sounds and the screen switches to the dis-
plays shown below. Refer to the appropriate page and take the
necessary measures.
When the cause of the warning display is eliminated, the warn-
ing display goes out automatically.
Refer to “Warning display list (With ignition switch in the
“OFF” position)” on page 3-213.
Refer to “Warning display list (With ignition switch in the
“ON” position)” on page 3-216.
Refer to “Other interrupt displays (With ignition switch in the
“ON” position)” on page 3-222.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 gen-
erated by the operation of installed electronics (includ-
ing 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 sys-
tem checked.

Engine malfunction indicator (“SERVICE
ENGINE SOON” or “Check engine light”)
N00520500790
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 illuminates or flashes. When the
ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position, this indicator
normally 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.

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
!
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
switch is turned to the “ON” position, have the sys-
tem checked at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer or a repair facility of your choice.
