If your vehicle becomes stuck in sand, mud or snow
1. Slowly press down on the accelerator pedal to
get your vehicle moving again. For an all-
wheel drive vehicle, set the drive mode-sel
ector to the “4WD AUTO” or “4WD LOCK”
position (Electronically cont
rolled 4WD), “SNOW” or “L
OCK” position (S-AWC) and

tor pedal to get your vehicle moving.
2. If there is nothing to stop your tires from sli
pping, rock your vehicle out of the stuck posi-
tion.
P. 8-15
WA R N I N G When attempting to rock your vehi
cle out of a stuck position, be su
re that no one is near the ve
hicle. The rocking motion may c
ause the vehicle to
suddenly lurch forward or backward, possibly injuring bystanders. Avoid revving the engine or spinning the wh
eels. Prolonged efforts to free a stuck ve
hicle may result in
overheating and transa
xle failure.
If the vehicle remains stuck after
several rocking attempts
, have a towing service pull the vehicle out.

N00406201467
All seats are equipped with a seat belt which uses one combined lap-and-shoulder belt with an emergency locking retractor. This system is designed to provide both com- fort and safety. It perm
its 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. 1. Occupants should always
sit back in their
seats with their backs against the upright seatback. To reduce
the risk of serious
injury or death during deployment of the airbag, adjust the driver’s seat as far back as possible while maintaining a positionthat still enables you to fully apply the pedals, easily contro
l the steering wheel,
and safely operate the vehicle. The frontpassenger seat should also be moved as far back as possible.
Refer to “Supple-
mental Restraint Syst
em (SRS) - airbag”
on page 4-33. Also refer to “To adjust the seat forward or backward” on page 4-5.
 To reduce the risk to the driver of serious injury or death duri
ng deployment of the
driver’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 passengeralways wears the seat belt properly, remains seated all the way back and upright in their seat,
and moves the seat as
far back as possible. Refer to “Supplemen- tal Restraint System (SRS) - airbag” on page 4-33 for additional information. Never hold an infant
or child in your arms
or on your lap when ri
ding in this vehicle
even when you are we
aring your seat belt.
Never place any part of the seat belt you are wearing around an infant or child.Failure to follow these simple instructions creates a risk of serious injury or death to your child in the even
t of an accident or
sudden stop.WA R N I N G
 Children 12 years ol
d and under should
always ride in the re
ar seat and be prop-
erly restrained. This reduces their risk ofserious injury or de
ath in an accident,
especially due to a deploying front passen- ger’s airbag. Refer to
“Child restraint sys-
tems” on page 4-26 for additional information. Any child who is t
oo small to properly
wear a seat belt must be properly restrained in an
appropriate child
restraint system. Infants MUST be placed in a rear-facing child safety seat and
positioned in the rear
seat. In the event of an ac
cident, all seat belt
assemblies, including retractors and attachment hardware, should be inspectedby an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer to determine whether replacement is necessary.

This position locks the transaxle to prevent the vehicle from moving.
The engine can be
started from the “P” (PARK) position. Move the lever to this
position only after the
vehicle has come to a complete stop. At this position, the transaxle is disengaged. It is the same as th
e neutral position on a
manual transaxle and should be used when the vehicle is not m
oving for an extended
length of time during driving, such as in atraffic jam.
This position is used fo
r most city and high-
way driving. The transaxle will automatically change its gear depending on road and driv- ing conditions.
This position is for driving up very steep hills and for engine braking at low speeds when driving down steep hills.
N00514401456
While the vehicle is stopped or being drivenwith the selector lever in the “D” (DRIVE) or “L” (LOW) position,
sports mode can be
selected by pulling one of the sportronicsteering wheel paddle shifter towards you. In sports mode, rapid
shifting is possible sim-
ply by operating the sportronic steering wheelpaddle shifter. Unlike the manual transaxle, sports mode allows shifting with the accelerator pedaldepressed.

CAUTION Never shift into the “P” (PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in motion. If the lever is shifted into the “P” (PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position whilethe vehicle is in moti
on, the transaxle may be
damaged.
“N” NEUTRAL

WA R N I N G Never move the select
or lever to the “N”
(NEUTRAL) position while driving sinceyou could accidentally
slip it into the “P”
(PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position, damaging the transaxle. To prevent the vehicle from rolling when stopped on a slope,
the engine should be
started in the “P” (PARK) position, not in“N” (NEUTRAL) position. To prevent rolling,
always keep your foot
on the brake pedal when the vehicle is in “N” (NEUTRAL) positi
on, or when shift-
ing into or out of “N” (NEUTRAL) posi-tion.

For short waiting periods, such as at traffic lights, the vehicle can be
left in gear and held
stationary 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 parkingbrake, while holding th
e 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 selector lever to the “P” (PARK) position. If the transaxle does not change gears while driving, or your vehicle does not pick up enough speed when starting on an uphillslope, it may be that there is something unusual happening in the transaxle, causing a safety device to acti
vate. Have your vehicle
checked at an authoriz
ed Mitsubishi Motors
dealer or a repair facility of your choice assoon as possible.
N00560201060
The CVT will automatically and continuouslychange its gear ratio depending on road anddriving conditions. This helps achieve smooth driving and excellent fuel efficiency. If your vehicle is equipped with the spor- tronic steering wheel paddle shifter, you can manually shift up and shift down the trans-mission. Refer to “Sports mode” on page 5-76. The transmission prevents unnecessary upshifts even when the accelerator pedal is released and ensures smooth driving. According to the conditions, the transmission will automatically shift to a lower gear ratioto achieve stronger engine braking. This may help reduce your need
to use the service
brake.
Waiting

CAUTION To avoid transaxle 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 se
lector lever is in a
position other than “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL).
