NOTE
 You may purchase a re
placement battery at
an electric appliance store.  An authorized Mitsubish
i Motors dealer can
replace the battery for you if you prefer.CAUTION When the remote control transmitter case is opened, be careful to keep water, dust, etc. out. Also, do not touch the internal compo- nents.
Door locks
WA R N I N G Make sure all doors are tightly closed and locked while driving.• Locked doors, in co
mbination with the
use of seat belts, can help reduce the riskof ejection in
an accident.
• Locked doors can help keep passengers, especially small children, from opening doors and falling out
of moving vehicles.
• Locked doors can help
prevent outsiders
from gaining access to your vehicle when you slow or come to a stop.
 Lock your vehicle whenever you leave it. Children who get into unlocked vehiclesmay not be able to get out. Childrentrapped inside vehicles can quickly be overcome by heat and suffer serious injury or death due to heat stroke. Never leave a child alon
e in the vehicle. In
addition to the risk
of heat stroke, chil-
dren can activate switches and controls, resulting in an injury
or fatal accident.
When closing a door,
make sure that the
door is fully closed and the door-ajar warning display goes out on the informa-tion screen on the multi-information dis- play. If the door is aj
ar it could open while
driving and caus
e an accident.

WA R N I N G Always keep the door
s tightly closed and
locked when driving. An unlocked doormay be accidentally
opened by a passen-
ger, especially by
a child who could fall
out. Also, if the doors are not locked, thereis a greater risk of someone being thrown from the vehicle
in an ac
cident.
Liftgate
WA R N I N GIt is dangerous to drive with the liftgate open since carbon mo
noxide (CO) gas can
enter the passenger compartment. CO is an invisible,
odorless gas that can
cause unconsciousness and even death. When opening and closing the liftgate, make sure that there are no people nearbyand be careful not to hit your head or pinch your hands, neck, etc.CAUTION Do not stand behind th
e exhaust pipe when
loading and unloading
luggage. Heat from
the exhaust could lead to burns.NOTE

N00551400043
Wind buffeting can be de
scribed as the per-
ception of pressure on the ears or a boomingor rumbling sound. Your
vehicle may exhibit
wind buffeting when driving with one or both rear door windows down or partially opened.This is a normal occurrence that can be mini- mized. If the buffeting
occurs with the rear
door windows open, open the front door win- dows as well as the rear door windows to minimize the condition.
N00511400399
To park the vehicle, first bring it to a com-plete stop, fully engage the parking brake,and then move the gearshift lever to 1st (on a uphill) or “R” (Reverse) (on a downhill) posi- tion for vehicles equipped with a manualtransaxle, set the selector lever to “P” (PARK) position for vehi
cles equipped with a
continuously variable transmission (CVT).
 The safety mechanism is deactivated while the switch is pulled up.
Therefore be espe-
cially careful that fi
ngers are not trapped in
the door window opening. Do not deliberately tr
ap your hands or head
in order to activate the safety mechanism. Your hand or head coul
d be trapped and per-
sonal injury could result.NOTE
 The safety mechanism can be activated if the driving conditions or
other circumstances
cause the door window to be subjected to a physical shock similar to that caused by trapped hand or head.  If the battery termin
als are disc
onnected or
the fuse for electric
window is replaced, the
safety mechanism will be cancelled and the door window will not
automatically
open/close completely.If the window is open,
repeatedly raise the
driver’s door window switch until the win- dow has been fully cl
osed. Following this,
release the switch, raise the switch onceagain and hold it in this
condition for at least
1 second, then release it. You should now be able to operate the driver’s door window inthe normal fashion.CAUTION
What to do if you hear wind buffeting when driving Parking brake
To apply 1- Pull the lever up without pushing the
button at the end of hand grip. When the parking brake is set and theignition switch or the operation mode is in the “ON” position, the brake warn- ing light in the instrument cluster willcome on. Before driving, be sure to release the parking brake.

N00560801066
To gain extra acceleration in “D” (DRIVE) position (when passing another vehicle) pushthe accelerator to the floor. The CVT will automatically downshift. For short waiting periods, such as at traffic lights, the vehicle can be
left in selector lever
position and held stati
onary with the service
brake. For longer waiting periods with the engine running, place th
e selector lever in the “N”
(NEUTRAL) position and apply the parking brake, while holding th
e vehicle stationary
with the service brake.
CAUTION If a malfunction occurs in the CVT while driving, the indicator will blink.In this case, immediat
ely park your vehicle
in a safe place and follow these procedures: [If the indicator blinks
rapidly (once per sec-
ond), the CVT fluid is overheating.]Park your vehicle in
a safe place but do not
turn off the engine. M
ove the selector lever
to the “P” (PARK) position and open thebonnet. Keep the engine, idling. After a while, move the selector lever into any position other than
“P” (PARK) position
and confirm that the in
dicator stops blinking.
It is safe to continue driving if the indicator no longer blinks.If the indicator conti
nues blinking or blinks
intermittently, have your
vehicle inspected at
an authorized Mitsubi
shi Motors dealer or
repair facility of your choice. [If the indicator blinks slowly (once per 2 seconds), the CVT sa
fety device may be
operating due to a malfunction.] Have the vehicle inspec
ted at an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer
or repair facility of
your choice as soon as possible.
Operation of the CVT

CAUTION Before selecting a pos
ition with the engine
running and the vehicl
e stationary, firmly
depress the brake pedal to prevent the vehi- cle from creeping. The vehicle will begin to
move as soon as the
CVT is engaged, especi
ally when the engine
speed or idle speed is
high, or with the air
conditioning (cooling or
heating) operating.
Do not release the brake pedal until you are ready to drive away. Depress the brake pedal with the right foot at all times. Using the left foot c
ould cause driver move-
ment delay in case of an emergency. To prevent sudden acceleration, never run the engine at high rpms when shifting from the “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL). Operating the accelerator pedal while the other foot is resting
on the brake pedal will
affect braking efficien
cy 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) or coast for- ward in the “R” (REVERSE) position. Engine stopping and in
creased brake pedal
and steering effort coul
d lead to an accident.
Do not rev the engine
with the brake pedal
pressed when the vehicle is stationary.This can damage the CVT.Also, when you depress
the accelerator pedal
while holding down the brake pedal with the selector lever in th
e “D” (DRIVE) position,
the engine revolutions
may not rise as high
as when performing the same operation with the selector lever in the “N” (NEUTRAL)position.
