[For vehicles equipped with the Free-hand Advanced Security Transmitter (F.A.S.T.- key).] For information on operation for vehiclesequipped with the Free-hand Advanced Secu- rity Transmitter (F.A.S.T.-key), refer to
“Free-hand Advanced
Security Transmitter
(F.A.S.T.-key): Starting” on page5-12. [Except for vehicles equipped with the Free-hand Advanced Se
curity Transmit-
ter (F.A.S.T.-key).]  Do not operate the starter motor continu- ously for longer than 15 seconds as this could run the battery
down or damage the
starter motor. If the engine does not start, turn the ignition switch back to the “OFF” or “LOCK” position, wait a few seconds,and then try again. Trying repeatedly 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 upenough for driving when the bar graph of engine coolant temper
ature display starts
to move or the low coolant temperatureindicator goes out. Refer to “Engine cool- ant temperature display” on page 5-128 or “Low coolant temper
ature indicator” on
page 5-166.
This model is equipped with an electronically controlled fuel injection system. This is a sys-tem that automatically controls fuel injection. There is usually no need to depress the accel- erator pedal when starting the engine.The starter should not be run for more than 15 seconds at a time. To prevent battery drain, wait a few secondsbetween attempts to restart the engine. 1. Make sure all occupants are properly seated with seat belts fastened.

extremely poisonous, could build up and cause serious injury or death.CAUTION Do not push-start the vehicle.Do not run the engine at high rpms or drive at high speeds until
the engine has had a
chance to warm up. Release the ignition sw
itch as soon as the
engine starts. Otherwis

N00538801180
In sports mode, the curre
ntly selected gear is
displayed on the information screen in the multi-information display.
+ (SHIFT UP) The transaxle shifts up by one gear with each operation. - (SHIFT DOWN) The transaxle shifts down by one gear witheach operation.
CAUTION In sports mode, the driver must execute upward shifts in accordance with prevailing road conditions, taking care to keep theengine speed below the red zone. Repeated continuous ope
ration of the selec-
tor lever or the sportronic steering wheel paddle shifter will co
ntinuously switch shift
position.
SHIFT UP
SHIFT DOWN
 On vehicles with a s
portronic steering wheel
paddle shifter, gears
may not change when
the lateral paddle shifters are operated at thesame time. NOTE
 Gears can only be selected in a forward direction from 1st gear to 6th gear. To reverse or park the vehi
cle, move the selector
lever to the “R” or “P” position.  To maintain good running performance, the transaxle may refuse to perform an upshiftwhen the selector lever is moved to the “+(SHIFT UP)” positi
on at certain vehicle
speeds. Also, to prevent over-revving of theengine, the transaxle may refuse to perform a downshift when the lever is moved to the “- (SHIFT DOWN)” position
at certain vehicle
speeds. When this happens, a buzzer sounds to indicate that a dow
nshift is not going to
take place.  Downward shifts are made automatically when the vehicle slows down. When thevehicle stops, 1st ge
ar is automatically
selected.  The upward shift may be made automatically in sports mode when the engine revolutions rises and approaches
the tachometer’s red
zone (the red-coloured
part of the tachometer
dial).CAUTION
 When pulling away from a standstill on a slippery road, push the
selector lever forward
to the +(SHIFT UP) pos
ition to select 2nd

Service brake 5-84 Features and controls

N00517500275
Overuse of the brake can cause weakening, resulting in poor brake response and prema- ture wear of the brake pads. When driving down a long or steep hill, useengine braking by downshifting.
N00517600364
Your vehicle is equipped with power brakes for more braking force with less brake pedal effort.Your brakes are designed to operate at full capacity, even if the power assist is not being used.If the power assist is not being used, the effort needed to press the brake pedal is greater. If you should lose the power assist for somereason, the brakes will still work. If the power brake unit or either of the two brake hydraulic systems stops working prop-erly, the rest of the brake system will still work, but the vehicle will not slow down as quickly.You will know this has happened if you find you need to press the brake down farther, or harder when slowing down or stopping, or ifthe brake warning light and the warning dis- play in the multi-information display come on.
N00550700124
The disc brakes have an alarm that makes a metallic squeal when the brake pads have worn down enough to need service.If you hear this sound, have the brake pads replaced at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.
Jacking up a 4-wheel drive vehicle
WA R N I N G Do not crank the engine while jacking up the vehicle. The tire on the ground may turn and thevehicle may roll off the jack.
Service brake Brake pedal
WA R N I N G Do not leave any obje
cts near the brake
pedal or let a floor
mat slide under it;
doing so could prevent the full pedal stroke that would be necessary in an emergency. Make sure that the pedal canbe operated freely at
all times. Make sure
the floor mat is securely held in place.
CAUTION It is important not to
drive the vehicle with
your foot resting on the brake pedal whenbraking is not required. This practice canresult in very high brake temperatures, pre- mature lining wear, a
nd possible damage to
the brakes.
Power brakes
WA R N I N G Never coast downhill
with the engine OFF.
Keep the engine running whenever yourvehicle is in motion.
If you turn off the
engine while driving, the power brake booster will stop wo
rking and your brakes
will not work as well. If the power assist is lost or if either brake hydraulic system stops working properly,take your vehicle to
an authorized Mit-
subishi Motors dealer
or a repair facility
of your choice immediately.
Brake pad wear alarm
WA R N I N G Driving with worn brake pads will make it harder to stop, and can cause an accident.
