You can change the mode condition for the average fuel consumption and average speed display to “Auto reset” or “Manual reset”. 1. Press and hold the multi-information meter switch (for about 2 seconds ormore) to switch from the setting modescreen to the menu screen. Refer to “Changing the function settings (With ignition switch in the “ON” posi-tion)” on page 5-126. 2. Lightly press the multi-information meter switch to select “AVG” (average fuel con-sumption and average speed setting).
3. Press and hold the multi-information meter switch (for about 2 seconds or more) to switch in sequence from A or 1 (Auto reset mode)
M, 2 or P (Manual
reset mode)
A or 1 (Auto reset mode).
The setting will change to the selected mode condition. • If you press and hold the multi-informa- tion meter switch when the average fuel consumption and average speed are dis- played, these calculations will be reset tozero. • When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position from the “ACC” or“LOCK” position, the mode setting changes automatically from manual to auto.Switching to auto occurs automatically. If switching to manual mode is done, however, the data from the last reset isdisplayed. • When the average fuel consumption and average speed are being displayed, if youhold down the multi-information meter switch, these calculations will be reset to zero.
• When the ignition switch has been set to the “ACC” or “LOCK” position for about 4 hours or more, the average fuel consumption display and the averagespeed display will automatically reset.

Mitsubishi Motors recommends using only engine oils with the ILSAC certification sym- bol on the front of the container.
If you cannot find oils with the ILSAC certi- fication symbol, use an API classification SN or higher oil with the following label. This mark appears on th
e top of the oil con-
tainer and tells you two important things about the oil.
N00955000070
Use engine oil with the proper thickness for the outdoor temperatures where you will be driving.
SAE 0W-20 engine oil is strongly recom- mended for optimum fuel economy and coldstarting. If SAE 0W-20 is not available the ILSAC certification oil of other viscosity grades canbe temporarily used.
NOTE
 Engine oil consumption is greatly influenced by payload, engine speed, etc.  The engine oil will deteriorate rapidly if the vehicle is subjected to severe conditions (forexample, repeated operation on rough roads, in mountainous regions, on roads with many uphill and downhill gradients, or over shortdistances). Consequently, the oil will require earlier replacement in accordance with the schedule in the “WARRANTY AND MAIN-TENANCE MANUAL”.
