WARNINGlExtreme Hazard!
NEVER use a rearward facing child re- straint on a seat protected by an ACTIVEAIRBAG in front of it, DEATH or SERI- OUS INJURY to the CHILD can occur.NOTEl The labels may be in different positions de-
pending on the vehicle model.
Use rearward facing child restraints in the
rear seat or turn off the front passenger’s air- bag ON-OFF switch (if so equipped). (Refer
to “To turn an airbag off” on page 4-28)
WARNINGl A REARWARD FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT must NOT be used in the front passenger seat if the front passenger’s air-
bag has not been deactivated. The force of an inflating airbag could kill or cause se-
rious injuries to the child. A rearward facing child restraint should be used in
the rear seat.
l A FORWARD FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT should be used in the rear seat
whenever possible; if used in the front seat, turn off the front passenger’s airbag
ON-OFF switch.Infants and small children
E00406600609
When transporting infants and small children
in your vehicle, follow the instruction given below.
Instruction:
l For small infants, an infant carrier
should be used. For small children whose height when seated allows the shoulder belt to lie in contact with the
face or the throat, a child seat should be used.
l The child restraint system should be ap-
propriate for the child’s weight and
height and properly fit in the vehicle. For a higher degree of safety: THE
CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
SHOULD BE INSTALLED IN THE REAR SEAT.
NOTEl Before purchasing a child restraint system,
try installing it in the rear seat to make surethere is a good fit. Because of the location of the seat belt buckles and the shape of theseat cushion, it may be difficult to securely
install some manufacturer’s child restraint
systems.
If the child restraint system can be pulled forward or to either side easily on the seatcushion after the seat belt has been tight-
ened, choose another manufacturer’s child restraint system.

Automatic transmission will automatically
change its gear depending on road and driv- ing conditions. This helps achieve smooth
driving and excellent fuel efficiency.
Also you can manually shift up and shift down the transaxle. Refer to “Sports mode”
on page 6-29.NOTEl During running-in period or immediately af-
ter reconnection of the battery cable, there may be a case where gear shifts are not
made smoothly. This does not indicate a faulty transmission.
Gear shifts will become smooth after the transmission has been shifted several times
by the electronic control system.Selector lever operation
E00603301200
The transmission has 6 forward gears and 1
reverse gear.
The individual gears are selected automati-cally, depending on the speed of the vehicle
and the position of the accelerator pedal.
The selector lever (A) has 2 gates; the main gate (B) and the manual gate (C).While depressing the brake pedal,
move the selector lever through the gate.Move the selector lever through the
gate.WARNINGl Always depress the brake pedal when
shifting the selector lever into a gear from the “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL) po-sition.
Never put your foot on the accelerator
pedal while shifting the selector lever
from the “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEU- TRAL) position.NOTEl To avoid erroneous operation, move the se-
lector lever firmly into each position and
briefly hold it there. Always check the posi- tion shown by the selector lever position dis-
play after moving the selector lever.
l If the brake pedal is not depressed and held,
the shift-lock device activates to prevent the selector lever from being moved from the “P” (PARK) position.

When the selector lever cannotbe shifted from the “P” (PARK)position
E00629100153
When the selector lever cannot be shifted
from the “P” (PARK) position to another po-
sition while the brake pedal is pressed and
held down with the ignition switch or the op- eration mode in ON, the battery may be flator the shift-lock mechanism may be malfunc-
tioning. Immediately have your vehicle checked by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point.
If you need to move the vehicle, shift the se- lector lever as follows.
For LHD vehicles 1. Make sure the parking brake is applied.
2. Stop the engine if it is running.
3. Insert a straight blade (or minus) screw-
driver with a cloth over its tip into notch
(A) or the cover. Pry gently as shown to remove the cover.
4. Depress the brake pedal with the right
foot.
5. Insert a straight blade (or minus) screw-
driver in the shiftlock release hole (B).Shift the selector lever to the “N” (NEU-
TRAL) position while pressing the
straight blade (or minus) screwdriver
down.

For RHD vehicles 1. Make sure the parking brake is applied.
2. Stop the engine if it is running.
3. Depress the brake pedal with the right
foot.

“P” PARK
This position locks the transmission to pre- vent the vehicle from moving. The engine
can be started in this position.
“R” REVERSE
This position is to back up.
CAUTIONl Never shift into the “P” (PARK) or “R”
(REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in motion to avoid transmission damage.
“N” NEUTRAL
At this position the transmission is disengag-
ed. It is the same as the neutral position on amanual transmission, and should only be
used when the vehicle is stationary for an ex-
tended length of time during driving, such as
in a traffic jam.
WARNINGl Never move the selector lever to the “N”
(NEUTRAL) position while driving. A se-rious accident could occur since you could
accidentally move the lever into the “P”
(PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position or you will lose engine braking.
l On a gradient the engine should be star-
ted in the “P” (PARK) position, not in the “N” (NEUTRAL) position.
l To prevent rolling, always keep your foot
on the brake pedal when the vehicle is in “N” (NEUTRAL) position, or when shift-
ing into or out of “N” (NEUTRAL) posi- tion.
“D” DRIVE
This position is used for most city and high-
way driving. The transmission will automati-
cally change its gear depending on road and driving conditions.
CAUTIONl To prevent transmission damage, never shift
into the “D” (DRIVE) position from the “R”
(REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in motion.
