proper work
ing order.

r any tear or open
seam in the seat fabr
ic near the side air-
bag, have the seat in
spected by an autho-
rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. If you have found an
y scratch, crack or

Startability of the engine with an ambient temperature of -22 °F (-30 °C) or lowerWhen the ambient temperature is -22 °F (-30 °C) or lower, it may not be possible to start from a standstill even with the selector leverin the “D” (DRIVE) position. This phenomenon occurs because the trans- axle has not warmed up sufficiently; it doesnot indicate a problem.
If this occurs, place
the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) position and let the engine idle for at least 10 minutes.The transaxle will wa
rm up, and you will be
able to start normally.
Do not leave the vehicle during warm-up operation. The MIVEC engine automatically switches its intake-valve control between a low-speed mode and a high-speed mode in accordancewith driving conditions for maximum engine performance.
