senger in the event of an accident. Always use the provided seat belts. Carefully review the following information for proper seat belt usage.
N00406201470
All seats are equipped with a seat belt whichuses one combined lap-and-shoulder belt withan emergency locking retractor. This system is designed to provide both com- fort and safety. It permits full extension and automatic retraction of the belts during nor-mal vehicle operation. A sensing device inside the belt retractor is designed to lock the retractor in the event of a sudden change inthe vehicle’s motion.
WA R N I N G To help reduce the risk of injury or death in an accident, seat belts and childrestraint systems must always be used. Refer to “Child restraint systems” on page 4-14 for additional information. Never use one seat belt for more than one person.  Never carry more people in your vehicle than there are seat belts. Always adjust the seat belt for a snug fit.Always place the shoulder belt over your shoulder and across your chest. Never put it behind you or under your arm.  Always wear the lap belt as low as possible across your hips, not around your waist. Never modify or alter the seat belts in your vehicle. To reduce the risk to the driver of serious injury or death during deployment of thedriver’s airbag, always properly wear the seat belt and adjust th
e driver’s seat as far
back as possible while maintaining a posi- tion that still enables
you to fully apply the
pedals, easily control the steering wheel,and safely operate the vehicle.
 To reduce the risk to a front seat passen- ger of serious injury or death from a deploying airbag, make sure the passenger always wears the seat belt properly, remains seated all the way back andupright in their seat, and moves the seat as far back as possible. Refer to “Supplemen- tal Restraint System (SRS) - airbag” onpage 4-21 for additional information. Never hold an infant or child in your arms or on your lap when riding in this vehicle even when you are wearing your seat belt. Never place any part of the seat belt youare wearing around an infant or child. Failure to follow these simple instructions creates a risk of serious injury or death toyour child in the event of an accident or sudden stop. Children 12 years old and under should always ride in the rear seat and be prop- erly restrained. This reduces their risk ofserious injury or death in an accident, especially due to a deploying front passen- ger airbag. Refer to “Child restraint sys-tems” on page 4-14 for additional information.WA R N I N G
 Any child who is too small to properly wear a seat belt must be properly restrained in an appropriate child restraint system. Children 12 years old and under should be seated only in therear seat to reduce their risk of serious injury or death in an accident, especially from the deployment of a front passengerairbag. Infants MUST be placed in a rear-facing child safety seat and positioned in the rear seat. In the event of an accident, all seat belt assemblies, including retractors and attachment hardware, should be inspectedby an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer to determine whether replacement is necessary.

While driving with the selector lever in the “D” (DRIVE), sports mode can be selected by pulling one of the sportronic steering wheel shifters toward you.In sports mode, rapid
shifting is possible sim-
ply by operating the sportronic steering wheel paddle shifter.
Unlike the manual transaxle, sports mode allows shifting with the accelerator pedal depressed.
 To maintain good running performance, the transmission may refuse to perform an upshift when the selector lever or sportronic steering wheel paddle shifter is moved to the “+(SHIFT UP)” positi
on at certain vehicle
speeds. Also, to prevent over-revving of the engine, the transmission may refuse to per- form a downshift when the shift lever orsportronic steering wheel paddle shifter is moved to the “- (SHIFT DOWN)” position at certain vehicle speeds. When this happens, abuzzer sounds to indicate that a downshift is not going to take place.  Move the selector lever gently between the manual and main gates and between posi- tions in the manual gate. And do not operatesportronic steering wheel paddle shifter vio- lently. Excessive force could damage the selector lever or sportronic steering wheelpaddle shifter.

NOTE
NOTE
 While driving in sports mode, the sports mode display may change to show “D” and shifting in sports mode may no longer bepossible. This indicates that controls to drive in the “D” position are operating normally in orderto lower the temperature of the continuously variable transmission (CVT) fluid; it does not indicate a malfunction. Once the temper-ature of the continuously variable transmis- sion (CVT) fluid drops, shifting in the sports mode will be possible again.
Operation of the CVT

CAUTION Before selecting a position with the engine running and the vehicle stationary, fully depress the brake pedal to prevent the vehi- cle from creeping.Do not release the brakes until you are ready to drive away. The vehicle will begin to move as soon as the CVT is engaged, espe-cially when the engine speed is high (fast idle or air conditioning on). Depress the brake pedal with the right foot. Using the left foot could cause driver move- ment delay in case of an emergency. To prevent sudden acceleration, never run the engine at high rpms when shifting fromthe “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL) posi- tion. Operating the accelerator pedal while the other foot is resting on the brake pedal will affect braking efficiency and may cause pre-mature wear of brake pads. Use the selector lever in the correct shift position in accordance with driving condi- tions. Never coast downhill backward in the driv- ing shift position { “D” (DRIVE), “L” (LOW) or sports mode} or coast forward inthe “R” (REVERSE) position. Engine stopping and increased brake pedal and steering effort could lead to an accident.

Using the gearshift lever (A) or the sportronicsteering wheel shifters (B), shifting can beperformed manually.
Shifting can be performed even while the accelerator pedal is depressed. This allows the driver to enjoy sporty driving, such as quick cornering, by nimbly down-shifting to reduce vehi
cle speed just before
entering a curve.
To shift from “Sport” mode to “Normal” mode
NOTE
 If the Twin Clutch SST control mode switch is continuously pressed after a control modehas been selected, an erroneous operation prevention function operates and the control mode is automatically set to the “Normal”mode. If you would like to select a control mode again, return the ignition switch to the“ACC” or “LOCK” position and restart the engine. Then, push the Twin Clutch SST control mode switch.

Manual shift

CAUTION When manually shifting while the vehicle is being driven, select the correct shift position to control the engine speed so that the tachometer indicator does not enter the redzone. Sudden engine braking and rapid accelera- tion can cause the vehicle to skid. Shift down according to road conditions and vehicle speed. If both the left and right sportronic steering wheel shifters are operated at the same time,the transmission may not change gears.NOTE
 Only the forward gears 1 to 6 can be selected. To reverse or park, place the gearshift lever in the “R” (REVERSE) or “P” (PARK) posi-tion.  During manual shifting, downshifting will be performed automatically when the vehicle slows down and the transmission will down- shift to 1st gear before the vehicle stops.

However, if the vehicle does not move or accelerate normally, or if this problem occurs repeatedly, have the vehicle checked by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or arepair facility of your choice as soon as possi- ble.
N00538500034
The ACD is a system that improves accelera- tion performance and straight-ahead stabilityby regulating the differential limiting action and power drive distribution of the center dif- ferential.
N00545400048
Select the control mode from the followingthree types to suit the driving conditions.
When the ignition switch is set to the “ON” position, operate the AWC switch to change the control mode. Each time the switch is pushed, the control mode changes in the order “TARMAC”

“GRAVEL”
 “SNOW”
 “TARMAC”.
CAUTIONWhen the Twin Clutch SST fluid tempera- ture is high, the engine idle speed when the vehicle is stopped may increase or the vehi- cle will have a weak tendency to creep. After that, if the Twin Clutch SST fluid tem- perature rises even higher, the warning display will appear.
ACD (Active center differ- ential system)
(if so equipped)
CAUTION Do not over-rely on the ACD. Even the ACD cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle. This system, like any other system, has limits and cannot help you to maintain traction and control of thevehicle in all circumstances. Reckless driv- ing can lead to accidents. It is the driver’s responsibility to drive carefully. This meanstaking into account the traffic, road and envi- ronmental conditions. Be sure to use tires that are the same speci- fied size, type, and brand, and have no differ- ence in the amount of wear for all fourwheels. Otherwise, the ACD may not work properly.NOTE
 If the parking brake lever is pulled up while the vehicle is moving, the center differential is designed to switch to a free state condition which will allow the rear wheel to lock eas-ier.

N00530600169
Full-time 4WD vehicles are propelled by engine power distributed constantly andappropriately to all 4 wheels. Not only does this ensure enhanced handling on dry, paved roads but also permits bettertraction when driving on slippery, wet orsnow-covered roads and when moving out of mud. These vehicles, however, are not designedfor off-road use, and are unsuitable for driving on bumpy ground that may cause excessive strain.
Full-time 4WD vehicles
should be driven only under the same condi- tions as are suitable for ordinary front-wheel drive vehicles. Electronically controlled 4WD system vehi- cles are propelled by engine power distrib- uted constantly and appropriately to all 4 wheels. Not only does this ensure enhanced handling on dry, paved roads but also permits better
traction when driving on slippery, wet or snow-covered roads and when moving out of mud. These vehicles, however, are not designedfor off-road use, and are unsuitable for driving on bumpy ground that may cause excessive strain.
Electronically controlled
4WD system vehicles should be driven only under the same conditions as are suitable for ordinary front-wheel drive vehicles. When turning a sharp corner in “4WD LOCK” position at low speed, a slight differ- ence in steering may be experienced similarto feeling as if the brakes were applied. This is called tight corner braking and results from each of the four tires being at a different dis-tance from the corner. The phenomenon is typical of 4-wheel drive vehicles. If this occurs, either straighten out the steeringwheel, or change to “2WD” or “4WD AUTO” mode. Set the drive mode-selector to “4WD AUTO” conditions, and then gradually depress theaccelerator pedal for a smooth start.
CAUTION The warning display on the information screen in the multi-information display, a problem has occurred with the electronically controlled 4WD system and the safety device has activated. Have an inspection made byan authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice as soon as pos- sible.
Type 1 Type 2
CAUTION Always use tires of the same size, type, and brand that have no wear differences. Using tires that differ in size, type, brand, or wear amount may activate the protection of thedrive-system components, causing the drive mode in “4WD AUTO” mode to lock or the “4WD” and “LOCK” indicators to blinkalternately.
