For short waiting periods, such as at traffic lights, the vehicle can be
left in selector lever
position and held stationary with the servicebrake. For longer waiting periods with the engine running, place th
e selector lever in the “N”
(NEUTRAL) position a
nd apply the parking
brake, while holding the vehicle stationary with the service brake.Prior to moving off after having stopped the vehicle, make sure that
the selector lever is in
“D” (DRIVE) position or
Sports mode posi-
tion.
To park the vehicle, fi
rst bring it to a com-
plete stop, fully engage the parking brake, and then move the sele
ctor lever to the “P”
(PARK) position. If the CVT does not shift while driving, or your vehicle does not pick up enough speed when starting on an uphill slope, it may be that there is something unusual happening inthe transmission, causing a safety device to activate. Have your ve
hicle checked at an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or arepair facility of your c
hoice as soon as possi-
ble.

The electronically controlled 4WD systemhelps improve accelera
tion and vehicle stabil-
ity by controlling the front-rear distribution ofdriving torque using
the electronic control
coupling in the rear differential assembly.
NOTE
 In sports mode, downshifts do not take place when the accelerator is depressed all the wayto the floor.
Waiting

CAUTION To avoid transmission
overheating, never try
to keep your vehicle
stationary on a hill by
using the accelerator
pedal. Always apply
the parking brake and/or service brake. Do not rev the engine unnecessarily while the vehicle is stationary. Unexpected acceler- ation may occur if the selector lever is in aposition other than “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL).
Parking

When the CVT makes no speed change

NOTE
 [For vehicles equipped with mono-color liq- uid crystal display meter]When the selector le
ver position indicator
blinks while you are driving, there could be a malfunction in the automatic transmission system or CVT fluid
temperature becomes
abnormally high. [For vehicles equippe
d with color liquid
crystal display meter] When the warning display and “SLOW DOWN” or the wa
rning display and
“SERVICE REQUIRED” appear on the information screen in the multi-informationdisplay, there could be
a malfunction in the
CVT. Refer to “Continuously variable trans- mission (CVT): Warning display” on page5-69.

Warning lamp Warning display
If there is a malfunction in the system, the warning light will come on and the warningdisplay will appear on the information screen in the multi information display. Under normal conditions, the warning lightcome on when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the operation mode is put in ON, and goes off
after the engine has
started.
N00559100147
The Active stability control (ASC) takesoverall control of the
anti-lock braking sys-
tem, traction control function and skid control function to help maintain the vehicle’s controland traction. Please read this section in con- junction with the page on the anti-lock brak- ing system, traction control function and skidcontrol function. Anti-lock braking system

Skid control function
 P. 5 - 9 0
NOTE
During repeated full-lock turning of the steering wheel (for example, while you aremanoeuvring the vehicle into a parkingspace), a protection f
unction may be acti-
vated to prevent overheating of the power steering system. This fu
nction will make the
steering wheel graduall
y harder to turn. In
this event, limit your turning of the steering wheel for a while. When the system hascooled down, the steering effort will return to normal.  If you turn the steering wheel while the vehi- cle is stationary with
the headlights on, the
headlights may become
dim. This behavior
is not abnormal. The he
adlights will return to
their original brightness after a short while.
Electric power steering system warning display
CAUTION If the warning display appears while the engine is running, have
the vehicle inspected
by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of
your choice as soon as
possible. It may become harder to turn thesteering wheel.
Active stability control (ASC)
CAUTION Do not over-rely on the ASC. Even the ASC 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 the vehicle in all circumstances. Reckless driv- ing can lead to accident
s. It is the driver’s
responsibillty to drive carefully, This means taking into account the traffic, road and envi- ronmental conditions. Be sure to use the same specified type and size of tire on all four
wheels. Otherwise, the
ASC may not work properly. Do not install any af
termarket limited slip
differential (LSD) on your vehicle. The ASC may stop functioning properly.NOTE
 An operation noise may be emitted from the engine compartment in the following situa-tions. The sound is associated with checkingthe operations of the ASC. At this time, you may feel a shock from the brake pedal if you depress it. These do not indicate a malfunc-tion. • When the ignition switch is set to the “ON” position. • When the vehicle is driven for a while after the engine is turned on.

judges that there is the ri
sk of a collision, the
system will give audibl
e and visual warnings.
When the FCM judges that a collision with the vehicle straight-ahe
ad is imminent, the
system will automati
cally apply moderate
braking to warn you to apply the brakes immediately. When the FCM judges that a collision withthe vehicle straight-ahead is highly unavoid- able, the system will apply emergency brak- ing to reduce the severity of the collision and, if possible, to avoid the collision. Stop lights are illuminated during automaticbraking.
N00577400025
If the system judges that there is a risk ofyour vehicle colliding with a vehicle in front, this function warns you
of the potential haz-
ard with visual and audible alarms.When this function is triggered, a buzzer sounds and, at the sa
me time, a “BRAKE”
message appears on the
information screen of
the multi-information display. The FCM will also prepare to provide quick brake response and greater brake force whenyou apply the brakes.
N00577700031
When the FCM judges that a collision withthe vehicle straight-ahe
ad is imminent, the
FCM will automatically apply moderate brak- ing to warn the driver to apply the brakesimmediately. If the FCM judges that
the collision is highly
unavoidable, it will
automatically apply
emergency braking to reduce the severity of the collision and, if possible, to avoid the col- lision.When the FCM applies emergency braking, a buzzer sounds and a wa
rning message is dis-
WA R N I N GBefore using the FCM, read this entire section to fully understand the limitations of this system. Failure to follow instruc-tions could result
in an accident.
The FCM is designed
to help avoid certain
frontal collisions or reduce the crashspeed in such collisions. It is not a substi-tute for your safe and careful driving. Under certain circumstances, the system may not operate or may not detect cor-rectly a vehicle in fr
ont. When your vehi-
cle is approaching a
vehicle too closely,
take all necessary ac
tions to avoid a colli-
sion, such as braking
and steering, regard-
less of whether the FCM is activated or not. Never rely on the FCM to prevent acollision.

e following situations
and the LDW may not
give warnings or
may give false warnings:• When lane markers are not clearly visi-ble.• When the road surface is shiny.• When old lane markers remain on the road surface.• When the lane markers are double linesor the shape of the lane markers are complicated.
• When driving in an extremely narrowlane.• When the distance
between your vehicle
and a vehicle in
front is short.
• When driving into the sun light.• When driving on curves.• When driving on bumpy roads.• When driving in construction zones.• When passing through a place where the brightness suddenly changes, such as at the entrance to or exit of a tunnel.• When the headlights of an oncomingvehicle are very bright. • When the rear of your vehicle is weigheddown with the weight of passengers and luggage.• When the headlights
of your vehicle are
not clean or are not properly aimed.• When the front windshield is not clean.• When the front windshield wipers do not clean the windshield properly.CAUTION To maintain proper function of the LDW:• Always keep the windshield and the head- lamps clean.• Do not put anything, such as a sticker, onthe front windshield in front of the LDWcamera • Avoid applying a shock or load to the LDWcamera.
