The vehicle is stuck in sand, mud, or snow.
Rock your vehicle back and forth to free it. P.8-11
WA R N I N G When attempting to rock your vehicle out of
a stuck position, be sure that no one is
near the vehicle. The rocking motion may c
ause the vehicle to
suddenly lurch forward or backward, possibly injuring bystanders. Avoid revving the engine or spinning the
wheels. Prolonged efforts to free a stuck ve
hicle may result in overheating and transa
xle failure.
If the vehicle remains stuck after several rocking at
tempts, have a towing service pull the vehicle out.

N00406701215
When your seat belt, even fully extended, is not long enough, a seat belt extender must beobtained. The extender may be used for either of the front seats.
N00406800075
Seat belts work for ev
eryone, including preg-
nant women. Like all occupants, pregnant women are more likely to be seriously injured or killed in an accident if they do not wearseat belts.
N00417700638
The driver’s and front passenger’s seats eachhave a seat belt equipped with a pre-tensioner system. The driver and front passenger seat belts are equipped with a seat belt pre-tensioner sys- tem. In a moderate-to-severe frontal or sidecollision, the pre-tensioner system operates simultaneously with the deployment of the front airbags or side airbags and curtain air-bags. The seat belt pre-tensioners are located within the seat belt retractors (A). When activated,the pre-tensioners quickly draw back seat belt webbing and increase seat belt performance.
WA R N I N G Always adjust the shoulder belt anchor so that the shoulder belt is positioned across the center of your shoulder without touch- ing your neck. The shoulder belt should not be able to fall off your shoulder. Fail-ure to follow this instruction can adversely affect seat belt performance and increase the risk of serious injury or death in theevent of an accident. Adjust the shoulder belt anchor only when the vehicle is not in motion. Make sure the anchor is securely locked in position after adjusting it.
Seat belt extender
WA R N I N G The extender should only be used if the existing belt is not long enough. Anyone who can use the standard seat belt shouldnot use an extender. Unnecessary use of an extender can adversely affect seat belt performance in an accident. When not required, the extender must be removed and stowed.
Seat belt use during preg- nancy
WA R N I N G To reduce the risk of serious injury or death to pregnant women and unborn children in an accident, pregnant women should always wear a seat belt. The lap portion of the seat belt should be wornsnug and low across the hips and below the rounding. Consult your doctor if you have any additional questions or concerns.

For future performance and economy of your vehicle, we recommend that you carry out thefollowing precautions.  Avoid revving the engine. Do not exceed 5,000 rpm for the first 600 miles (1,000 km). Avoid rough driving such as fast starts, prolonged high-speed driving and rough shifting for the first 300 miles (500 km).  The high-performance brake pads on your vehicle require a short break-in period. Avoid hard braking fo
r the first 300 miles
(500 km) to prevent future abnormalbrake noise and vibration from your vehi- cle’s brake pads.  The standard-equipment tires use a high- grip compound. Thus drive with extra care for the first 200 miles (300 km). Do not overload the vehicle. Observe the seating capacity (See “Cargo loads pre- cautions” on page 6-10). Do not use this vehicle for trailer towing.

The operations possible with the F.A.S.T.- key can be modified as stated below. (Keyless entry operations are possible.) For details, contact an authorized Mitsubi-shi Motors dealer. • Enabling only the locking and unlocking of the doors and the opening of the trunklid • Enabling only the starting of the engine • Deactivating the F.A.S.T.-key
The F.A.S.T.-key must be carried by the driver. The F.A.S.T.-key is required for vehicle operations such as locking and unlocking the doors, opening the trunk lid, and starting the engine. When leaving the vehicle, make sure you are carrying the F.A.S.T.-key and then lock the vehi- cle.
WA R N I N G Individuals who use implantable pace- makers or implantable cardiovascular-defibrillators should keep away from the external and internal
transmitters. The
electromagnetic waves used in theF.A.S.T.-key may affect the operation of implantable pacemakers and implantable cardiovascular-defibrillators.
A- External transmitter B- Internal transmitterWA R N I N G Individuals using other electrical medical apparatuses besides implantable pace-makers and implantable cardiovascular- defibrillators should check with the manu- facturer of the apparatus to confirm the effect of the electromagnetic waves used by the F.A.S.T.-key. The electromagneticwaves may affect the operations of the electro-medical apparatus.
NOTE
 The F.A.S.T.-key uses weak electromagnetic waves.In cases such as the following, operation may be improper or unstable. • The vehicle is near a facility that emits strong electromagnetic waves, such as a TV transmitting tower, a power station, a radiostation or an airport • The key is carried together with other com- munication devices such as cellular phones or radios, or electrical appliances such as computers • The F.A.S.T.-key touches or is covered by a metal object • A keyless entry system is being used nearby • The battery of the F.A.S.T.-key is run down• The vehicle is in a location with strong electromagnetic waves or noise

Turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” posi- tion. Turn the steering wheel until it is locked. Turn the ignition switch to the “ACC” posi- tion while moving the steering wheel slightly.
N00514601315
 Do not operate the starter motor for longer than 15 seconds as this could run the bat- tery down or damage the starter motor. Ifthe engine does not start, turn the ignition switch back to the “LOCK” position, wait a few seconds, and then try again. Tryingrepeatedly with the engine or starter motor still turning will damage the starter mechanism.
 If the engine will not start because the bat- tery is weak or discharged, refer to “Jump-starting the engine” on page 8-2 for instructions. A longer warm up period will only con- sume extra fuel. The engine is warmed up enough for driving when the bar graph ofthe engine coolant temperature display starts to move. Refer to “Interrupt display screen (With ignition switch in the “ON”position)” on page 5-99. On vehicles equipped with the Twin Clutch SST, the following may occur after the engine is started, but they do not indi-cate an abnormality. • You may hear operational sounds of the Twin Clutch SST and you may feelvibration in the vehicle body. • If you shift the gearshift lever into the “N” (NEUTRAL) position and depressthe accelerator pedal, increases in the engine speed will be limited.

3. If the engine still will not start, the engine could be flooded with too much gasoline. While depressing the brake pedal on vehi- cles equipped with Twin Clutch SST orthe clutch pedal on the vehicles equipped with manual transaxle, push the accelera- tor pedal all the way down and hold itthere, then crank the engine for 5 to 6 sec- onds. Return the ignition switch to the “LOCK” position and release the acceler-ator pedal. Wait a few seconds, and thencrank the engine again for 5 to 6 seconds while depressing the brake pedal or the clutch pedal, but do not push the accelera-tor pedal. Release the ignition key if the engine starts. If the engine fails to start, repeat these procedures. If the engine stillwill not start, contact your local Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facil- ity of your choice for assistance.
When the ambient temperature is -22 °F (-30 °C) or lower, it may not be possible tostart from a standstill even with the gearshift lever in the “D” (DRIVE) or “R” (REVERSE) position.This phenomenon occurs because the trans- mission has not warmed up sufficiently; it
does not indicate a problem. If it occurs, place the gearshift lever in the “P” (PARK) position and let the engine idle for at least 10 minutes.The transmission will warm up, and you will be able to start normally. Do not leave the vehicle during warm-upoperation.
