Rain sensor
Can only be used when the ignition switch is in the “ON” position.
If the lever is put in the “AUTO” position,
the rain sensor (A) will detect the extent of rain (or snow, other moisture, dust, etc.) and the wipers will operate automatically.
Keep the lever in the “OFF” position if the
windscreen is dirty and the weather is dry.
Wiper operation under these conditions can scratch the windscreen and damage the wip-
ers.CAUTIONl With the ignition switch in the “ON” posi-
tion and the lever in the “AUTO” position,the wipers may automatically operate in the situations described below.
If your hands get trapped, you could suffer injuries or the wipers could malfunction. Be sure to turn the ignition switch to the “OFF”
position or move the lever to the “OFF” po-
sition to deactivate the rain sensor.
• When cleaning the outside surface of the
windscreen, if you touch the rain sensor.
• When cleaning the outside surface of the
windscreen, if you wipe with a cloth the
rain sensor.
• When using an automatic car wash.
• A physical shock is applied to the wind-
screen.
• A physical shock is applied to the rain
sensor.NOTEl To protect the rubber parts of the wipers,
this operation of the wipers does not take
place when the vehicle is stationary and the
ambient temperature is about 0 °C or lower.
l Do not cover the sensor by affixing a sticker
or label to the windscreen. Also, do not put
any water-repellent coating on the wind- screen. The rain sensor would not be able to
detect the extent of rain, and the wipers might stop working normally.

NOTElIn the following cases, the rain sensor may
be malfunctioning.
Have the vehicle inspected at a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
• When the wipers operate at a constant in-
terval despite changes in the extent of
rain.
• When the wipers do not operate even
though it is raining.
l The wipers may automatically operate when
things such as insects or foreign objects are affixed to the windscreen on top of the rainsensor or when the windscreen is frozen.
Objects affixed to the windscreen will stop
the wipers when the wipers cannot remove them. To make the wipers operate again,
place the lever in the “LO” or “HI” position.
Also, the wipers may operate automatically
due to strong direct sunlight or electromag- netic wave. To stop the wipers, place thelever in the “OFF” position.
l Contact a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point when replacing the wind-
screen or reinforcing the glass around the sensor.To adjust the sensitivity of the rain sensor
With the lever in the “AUTO” (rain sensor)
position, it is possible to adjust the sensitivity of the rain sensor by turning the knob (A).

If the warning lamp illuminateswhile driving
E00607302436
If only the ABS warning lamp illuminates
l Avoid hard braking and high-speed driv-
ing. Stop the vehicle in a safe place.
Restart the engine and check to see whether the lamp goes out after a few
minutes driving; if it then remains off during driving, there is no problem.
However, if the lamp does not go out, or if it lights up again when the vehicle is
driven, we recommend you to have the
vehicle checked as soon as possible.
l The ABS warning lamp can illuminate if
the battery voltage is insufficient when the engine is started. In this case, it doesnot indicate an ABS fault.
Charge the battery by allowing the en- gine to idle for a while.
If the battery has been charged but the
ABS warning lamp continues to illumi-
nate or illuminates intermittently, have
the vehicle inspected.
If the ABS warning lamp and
brake warning lamp illuminate
at the same time
The ABS and brake force distribution func- tion will not work, so hard braking could
make the vehicle unstable.
Avoid hard braking and high-speed driving.
Stop the vehicle in a safe place and contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point.
NOTEl Immediately after the vehicle starts moving
after engine start up, a whining sound of a motor will be heard from the engine com-
partment. If the brake pedal is depressed at that moment, you can feel the brake pedal
pulsating.
This pulsation is due to the self-diagnosis
operation of the ABS and does not indicate a malfunction.
l After driving on snowy roads, remove any
snow and ice which may have become ad-
hered to the wheel areas.
When doing this, be careful not to damage the wheel speed sensors (A) and cables loca-NOTEted at each wheel on vehicles equipped with
an ABS.
l The ABS becomes operative after the vehi-
cle has accelerated to a speed in excess of approximately 10 km/h (6 mph). It stops op-
erating when the vehicle decelerates to a speed below approximately 7 km/h (4 mph).
