The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:  How various systems in your vehicle were operating;  Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened; How far (if at all) the driver was depress- ing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and, How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better under- standing of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehi- cle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such aslaw enforcement, that have the special equip- ment, can read the information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.

The driver’s seat position sensor is attached to the seat rail and provides the airbag control unit with information on the seat’s fore-aftposition. The airbag control unit controls deployment of the driver’s front airbag in accordance with the information it receivesfrom this sensor. If there is a problem involving the driver’s seat position sensor, the SRS warning in theinstrument panel will come on. Refer to “SRS warning” on page 4-27.
N00418000247
The passenger’s seat weight sensors are attached to the seat rails and provide the air- bag control unit with information regarding the weight on the front passenger seat. Theairbag control unit controls deployment of the passenger’s front airbag in accordance with the information it receives from this sensor.The passenger’s front airbag will not deploy in an impact when the weight on the seat is sensed to be less than approximately 66pounds (30 kg). In this case, the passenger’s airbag off indicator will come on. Refer to “Passenger’s airbag off indicator” onpage 4-26. If there is a problem involving the passen- ger’s seat weight sensors, the SRS warning inthe instrument panel will come on. Refer to “SRS warning” page 4-27.
NOTE
 EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driv- ing conditions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) arerecorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifyingdata routinely acquired during a crash inves- tigation.
Driver’s seat position sensor
WA R N I N G If the SRS warning comes on, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized Mit- subishi Motors dealer as soon as possible. Please observe the following instructions to ensure that the driver’s seat position sensor can operate correctly.• Adjust the seat to the correct position,and sit well back against the seatback.Refer to “Front seats” on page 4-3.
• Do not recline the seatback more than necessary when driving.• Do not place metallic objects or luggage under the front seat.
 If the vehicle is involved in a severe impact, have the SRS sensor inspected byan authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer as soon as possible.

However, if the warning light / display do not disappear, or if they come on again when the vehicle is driven, have the vehi- cle checked by an authorized MitsubishiMotors dealer or repair facility of your choice as soon as possible.
Warning light

Warning display type 1
Warning display type 2 The anti-lock braking system and brake force distribution function may 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 an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or repair facility of your choice.
N00529200022
After driving on snow or icy roads, removeany snow and ice which may have been left around the wheels. On vehicles that have an
anti-lock braking system, be careful not to damage the wheel speed sensors (A) or the cables located at each wheel.
If the anti-lock braking system warning light / display and brake warning light / display come on at the same time
NOTE
 The anti-lock braking system warning light and brake warning light illuminate at thesame time and the warning displays appear alternately on the information screen in the multi-information display.

If there is not enough coolant because of a leak or from engine overheating, add Mit- subishi Motors Genuine Super Long Life Coolant Premium or equivalent.Please read this section in conjunction with the “Engine coolant” on page 9-8.
[For RALLIART vehicles sold in U.S.A.]  Mitsubishi Motors recommends that the standard equipment tires be replaced withwinter tires when the vehicle is going to be used in winter. The standard equipment tires providedwith this vehicle are summer tires and use a high-grip compound that provides supe- rior grip.The road grip, however, is reduced in win- ter. When replacing the standard equipmenttires with winter tires, all four tires must be replaced using radial identicalsize win- ter tires.

All the parts of the brake system are criticalto safety. Have the vehicle serviced by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice at regular inter-vals according to the “WARRANTY AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL”. Check the brake system while driving at a low speed immediately after starting, espe- cially when the brakes are wet, to confirmthey work normally.
A film of water can be formed on the brake discs or brake drums and prevent normal braking after driving in heavy rain or through large puddles, or after the vehicle is washed.If this occurs, dry the brakes out by driving slowly while lightly depressing the brake pedal. On snowy roads, ice can form on the braking system, making the brakes less effective. While driving in such conditions, pay closeattention to preceding and following vehicles and to the condition of
the road surface. From
time to time, lightly depress the brake pedaland check how effective the brakes are. It is important to take advantage of the engine braking by shifting to a lower gear while driving on steep downhill roads in order to prevent the brakes from overheating.
WA R N I N G Never open the radiator cap when the radiator is hot. You could be seriously burned.
NOTE
 As your vehicle is equipped with a tire pres- sure monitoring system, there is a risk of damage to the tire inflation pressure sensors when the tire is replaced on the rim. Tire replacement should, therefore, be performedonly by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.  If you use new wheels w
ith new tire inflation
pressure sensors, their ID codes must be pro- grammed into the tire pressure monitoringsystem. Refer to “Whenever the tires and wheels are replaced with new ones” on page 5-105.

If the fluid level falls markedly in a short length of time, it indicates leaks from the brake system. If this occurs, have the vehicle checked by anauthorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice. Use the recommended brake fluid conform- ing to DOT 3 or DOT 4. The reservoir cap must be tightly sealed to keep dirt and water out.
N00939000388
Check the fluid level in the reservoir whilethe engine is idling. Check to make certain that the power steering fluid level is always between the “MAX” and“MIN” level markings on the fluid reservoirand refill the fluid, if necessary.
N00939100783
The condition of the battery is very importantfor quick starting and to keep the vehicle’selectrical system working properly. Check the battery regularly.

Fluid type

CAUTION Do not let any petroleum-based fluid touch, mix with, or get into the brake fluid. This will damage the seals. Be careful when handling brake fluid. It can damage painted surfaces. Use only the listed brake fluid. Different brands of brake fluid have different addi-tives, and these can cause a chemical reac- tion. Do not mix brands of brake fluid. Keep the reservoir tank cap closed to keep the brake fluid from evaporating.
