While driving, the momentary fuel consump- tion is shown with a bar graph. When the momentary fuel consumption sur- passes the average fuel consumption, themomentary fuel consumption is displayed with a green bar graph. Be conscious of maintaining the momentaryfuel consumption above the average fuel con- sumption, it can help you drive with the better fuel consumption.
The S-AWC operation status is displayed. For further details, refer to “S-AWC opera- tion display” on page 5-73. The “Display language”, “Temperature unit”, “Fuel consumption unit”, and “Average fuel
consumption and speed reset method” set- tings can be modified as desired. For further details, refer to “Changing the function settings (With ignition switch in the“ON” position)” on page 5-103.

When there is information to be announced, such as a system fault, a tone sounds and the information screen is switched to the warningdisplay screen. Refer to the warning list and take the neces- sary measures. Refer to “Warning display list(With ignition switch in the “ON” position)” on page 5-114. When the cause of the warning display iseliminated, the warning display goes out automatically. Even if the cause of the warning display is not eliminated, you can return to the screen
 Average fuel consumption may vary depend on the driving conditions (road conditions, how you drive, etc.) The actual fuel con- sumption may differ from the fuel consump- tion displayed, so treat the fuel consumptiondisplayed as just a rough guideline.  The average fuel consumption display mem- ories for auto reset mode and manual reset mode are erased if the battery is discon- nected.  The display setting can be changed to the preferred units {mpg (US), mpg (UK),L/100km or km/L}. Refer to “Changing the function settings (With ignition switch in the “ON” position)”on page 5-103.

4. The headlights will come on in the low beam setting for about 30 seconds. Afterthe headlights go off, the headlights can be turned on again in the low beam setting for about 30 seconds by pulling the turnsignal lever toward you within 60 seconds of turning the ignition switch to the “LOCK” position. To turn on the head-lights again after 60 seconds of turningthe ignition switch to the “LOCK” posi- tion, repeat the process from step 1.

The direction of the headlight beam (the direction which the light shines in) altersaccording to the number of people and the load in the vehicle. Lower the headlight angle if it is too high due to the number of peopleand/or the load in the vehicle so that the head- lights’ glare does not distract the drivers of approaching vehicles. First set the light switch to the “ ” position, then turn the headlight leveling switch knob to lower the beam. The greater the number on the head- light leveling switch knob, the lower thebeam will point. Set the switch to the appropriate position so that the headlight beam is level with the road.

While the coming home light function is operating, perform one of the following operations to cancel the function. • Pull the turn signal lever toward you. • Turn the combination headlights and dim- mer switch to the “ ” or “ ” position. • Turn the ignition switch to the “ON” posi- tion.
 It is possible to modify functions as follows: • The time that the headlights remain on can be changed. • The coming home light function can be deactivated. For details, consult a Mitsubishi Motors dealer.

WA R N I N G To avoid distraction while driving, always perform headlight adjustments before vehicle operation.NOTE
 Start adjusting when
the knob is at the “0”
position (when the beam is at its highest).  Keep the knob in the “0” position except when using the knob to lower the headlight beam angle.  Always return the knob to the “0” position when the load is removed and the peoplehave left the vehicle.

Maximum Pressure indicates the maximum permissible cold tire infla- tion pressure for this tire. The TIN may be found on both sides of the tire but the date code and optional code may only be on one side. Look for the TIN on the out- board side of tires as mounted on the vehicle. If the TIN is not found onthe outboard side then you will find it on the inboard side of the tire.
EXAMPLE: DOT MA L9 ABCD 1504
The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlledconditions on a specified government test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and one- half (1
1/2) times as well on the gov-
ernment course as a tire graded 100. The relative performance of tiresdepends upon the actual conditions of their use, however, and may depart significantly from the norm due tovariations in driving habits, service practices and differences in road characteristics and climate. The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B and C. Thosegrades represent the tire’s ability to stop on wet pavement as measured
WA R N I N GOverloading of your tire isdangerous. Overloading can cause tire failure, affect vehi-cle handling, and increase your stopping distance. Use tires of the recommended loadcapacity for your vehicle. Never overload them.

under controlled conditions on speci- fied government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction perfor- mance. The temperature grades are A (the highest), B and C, representing the tire’s resistance to the generation ofheat and its ability to dissipate heat when tested under controlled condi- tions on a specified indoor laboratorytest wheel. Sustained high tempera- ture can cause the material of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire life, andexcessive temperature can lead to sudden tire failure. The grade C cor- responds to a level of performancewhich all passenger car tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehi- cle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the laboratory testwheel than the minimum required by law.

Proper tire inflation pressure is essential for the safe and satisfactory operation of yourvehicle. The wrong tire pressure will cause problems in three major areas:  Safety Too little pressure increases flexing in thetire and can cause tire failure. Too muchpressure can cause a tire to lose its ability to cushion shock. Objects on the road and potholes could then cause tire damage thatmay result in tire failure.  Economy The wrong tire pressure can cause unevenwear patterns in the tire tread. These abnormal wear patterns will reduce the tread life, and the tire will have to bereplaced sooner. Too little pressure also makes it harder for the tire to roll, and this uses up more fuel. Ride comfort and vehicle stability The superior riding experience built into your vehicle partly depends on the correcttire pressure. Too much pressure gives an uncomfortable and jarring ride. Too little pressure feels as if your vehicle is slow torespond. Unequal tire pressures can make steering your vehicle uneven and unpredictable.
The correct tire pressure for your vehicle is listed on the placard attached to the driver’s door sill. (Refer to “Tire and loading information plac-ard” on page 11-3.) The recommended inflation pressures should be used for the tires listed below. Tire pressures should be checked, and adjusted if necessary, at least once a month. Pressures should be checked more oftenwhenever weather temperatures change severely, because tire pressures change with outdoor temperatures. The pressures listed onthe placard are always “cold inflation pres- sure”. Cold inflation pressure is measured after thevehicle has been parked for at least three hours or is driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) after having been parked for three hours.Cold inflation pressure must not go above the maximum values molded into the tire side- wall. After driving several miles, your tireinflation pressure may increase 14 to 41 KPA,

This information is provided in compliance with the requirements of the National High-way Traffic Safety Administration, Depart- ment of Transportation. It provides the purchasers and/or prospective purchaserswith information on reporting safety defects. DOT quality grades - All passenger vehicle tires must conform to Federal Safety Require-ments in addition to these grades. The spe- cific grade rating in each grade category is shown on the side wall of the tires on yourvehicle. The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specified government test course. For example, a tiregraded 150 would wear one and one-half (11/2) times as well on the government course
as a tire graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual conditions of
their use, however, and may depart signifi- cantly from the norm due to variations in driving habits, service practices and differ- ences in road characteristics and climate.
