As an additional safe
ty precaution, models
equipped with an automatic transaxle have a shift-lock device that
holds the selector lever
in the “P” (PARK) position. To move theselector lever from the “P” (PARK) position to another position, follow the steps below. 1. Press and hold the brake pedal down. 2. Move the selector lever to the desiredposition.
The transaxle has 6 forward gears and 1 reverse gear.
The individual gears are selected automati- cally, depending on the
position of the gear
selector lever, the speed of the vehicle and the position of the ac
celerator pedal.
NOTE
During the break-in pe
riod or immediately
after reconnecting the
battery, your vehicle
may not shift smoothly.
This does not indi-
cate a problem in the transaxle. Shifting will become smoother once the transaxle has been shifted several
times by the electronic
control system.
Selector lever operation
NOTE
The selector lever cannot
be moved from “P”
(PARK) to another po
sition if the operation
mode is put in OFF or ACC, or if the brake pedal is not pressed and held down.
Set the selector lever in the gate to operate while the brake pedal is depressed.
Set the selector lever in the gate to operate.
WA R N I N G Always press the brake pedal when shift- ing the selector
lever into a gear from the
“N” (NEUTRAL) position. When beginning to drive, do not shift theselector lever from
the “N” (NEUTRAL)
position while pressing the accelerator pedal. This will cause the vehicle to“jump” forward or backward.NOTE
To prevent mistakes in operating the lever, make sure you stop brie
fly at each position.
After operating, chec
k the position in the
multi-information display. If the brake pedal is not depressed and held, the shift-lock device ac
tivates to prevent the
selector lever from be
ing moved from the
“P” (PARK) position. For a shift indicated by in the illustra- tion, depress the brake pedal before moving the selector lever. If you attempt to move theselector lever before depressing the brake pedal, the selector lever may become immovable.

Cruise control is an automatic speed control system that keeps a set speed. It can be acti- vated at speeds from about 25 mph(40 km/h). Cruise cont
rol does not work at
speeds below about 25 mph (40 km/h).
NOTE
The indicator may come on when you start the engine. This means that the battery voltage momentarily dropped when theengine was started. It
does not indicate a
malfunction, provided th
at the display goes
out immediately. When a spare tire has been put on your vehi- cle, the gripping ability of the tire will be lower, making it more
likely that the dis-
play/indicator will blink.

CAUTION The system may be malfunctioning. Park your vehicle in a
safe place and stop the
engine. Restart the engi
ne and check whether
the display/indicator goes out. If they go out, there is no abnormal condition. If they do not go out or if they turn on frequently, it is notnecessary to stop the
vehicle immediately,
but you should have your
vehicle inspected
by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer ora repair facility of
your choice as soon as
possible.
To w i n g
CAUTION If the 2WD vehicle is
towed with the ignition
switch in the “ON” pos
ition or the operation
mode in ON and only the front wheels or only the rear wheels raised off the ground, the ASC may operate, resulting in an acci-dent. When towing the 2WD vehicle with the front wheels raised, ke
ep the ignition switch
in the “OFF”, “LOCK”
or “ACC” position or
the operation mode in ACC or OFF. Whentowing the vehicle with the rear wheels raised, keep the ignition switch in the “ACC” position or the operation mode in ACC.Refer to “Towing” on page 8-14.
Cruise control
CAUTION When you do not wish to drive at a set speed, turn off the cruise control for safety. Do not use cruise control when driving con- ditions will not allow
you to stay at the same
speed, such as in heavy traffic or on roadsthat are winding, icy, snow-covered, wet, slippery, on a steep downhill slope.NOTE
Cruise control may not
be able to keep your
speed on uphills or downhills. Your speed may decr
ease on a steep uphill.
You may use the accelerator pedal if youwant to stay at your set speed. Your speed may increase to more than the set speed on a steep downhill. You have to usethe brake to control your speed. As a result, the set speed driving is deactivated.

2. If the tire pressure monitoring system warning light remain
s illuminated after
you have been driving for about 20 min- utes after you adjust the tire inflation pres- sure, one or more of the tires may have apuncture. Inspect the ti
re and if it has a
puncture, have it re
paired by an autho-
rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer as soon aspossible.
The tire pressure monitoring system may not work normally in the following circum- stances: A wireless facility
or device using the
same frequency is near the vehicle. Snow or ice is stuck inside the fenders and/or on the wheels. The tire inflation pressure sensor’s battery is dead. Wheels other than Mitsubishi genuine wheels are being used. Wheels that are not fitted with tire infla- tion pressure sensors are being used. Wheels whose ID codes are not memo- rized by the vehicle are used. Compact spare tire is fitted as a road wheel.
A window tint that affects the radio wave signals is installed.
N00532900081
If new wheels with new tire inflation pressure sensors are installed,
their ID codes must be
programmed into the tire pressure monitoringsystem. Have tire and
wheel replacement per-
formed by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer to avoid the risk of damaging the tireinflation pressure sensors. If the wheel replacement is not done by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer
, it is not covered by
your warranty.
Once adjustments have
been made, the warn-
ing light will go off after a few minutes ofdriving.WA R N I N G If the warning light
/ display illuminates
while you are driving, avoid hard braking, sharp steering maneuvers and high speeds.Driving with an under-inflated tire adversely affe
cts vehicle performance and
can result in an accident.CAUTION If a tire has a puncture, replace that tire with the spare tire. Driving on a punctured tirecould lead to an accident. The warning light / di
splay may not illumi-
nate immediately in the
event of a tire blow-
out or rapid leak.NOTE
NOTE
To avoid the risk of damage to the tire infla- tion pressure sensors, have any puncturedtire repaired by an authorized MitsubishiMotors dealer. If the tire repair is not done by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer, it is not covered by your warranty. Do not use an aerosol puncture-repair spray on any tire.Such a spray could dama
ge the tire inflation
pressure sensors. Have any puncture repa
ired by an authorized
Mitsubishi Moto
rs dealer.
NOTE
Tire inflation pressures vary with the ambi- ent temperature. If the vehicle is subjected to large variations in ambient temperature, the tire inflation pressures may be under-inflated(causing the warning light / display come on) when the ambient temperature is relatively low. If the warning light / display comes on,adjust the tire inflation pressure.
