There is a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) warning light on
the instrument panel.
The system checks itself every time the igni- tion switch is turned
to the “ON” position or
the operation mode is put in ON. The SRS warning light will co
me on for several sec-
onds and then go out. This is normal and means the system is working properly.If there is a problem involving one or more of the SRS components, the warning light will come on and stay on. At the same time, thewarning display will
appear on the informa-
tion screen in the multi information display (Type 1 only).The SRS warning light/display is shared by the SRS airbag and the seat belt pre-tensioner system.
WA R N I N G If any of the follow
ing conditions occur,
you should immediat
ely have the airbag
system in your vehicle inspected by anauthorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer as
soon as possible:• The passenger’s airbag off indicatorcomes on when an adul
t is sitting on the
front passenger seat.• The passenger’s airb
ag off indicator does
not come on when the front passengerseat is not occupied.• The passenger’s airb
ag off indicator does
not come on when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the oper- ation mode is put in ON.• The passenger’s airb
ag off indicator does
not come on when a child is in a childrestraint system on the front passenger’s seat.• The passenger’s airbag off indicatorcomes on and goes out repeatedly.
 Do not attach any ac
cessory to your vehi-
cle that makes the passenger’s airbag offindicator difficult or impossible to see.You must be able to see the passenger’s airbag off indicator and verify the status of the passenger’s airbag system.

ill sound continuously
while the drop prevention mechanism is oper-ating.
If the engine is starte
d while the power lift-
gate is operating, the power liftgate may intermittently move or stop moving to pre- vent the power liftgate
from moving abruptly.
Approximately 10 seconds after the power liftgate has fully closed
or opened, power lift-
gate operation will again resume.

, the power liftgate
may stop and then, de
pending on its posi-
tion, may abruptly open
or close. Once the
power liftgate is completely closed or open, automatic operation will be resumed.
CAUTION Do not damage the auto reverse sensor, when loading or unloading luggage. If the sensor isdamaged, the power lift
gate will not close
automatically.

liftgate. The drop prevention mechanismmay be activated due to
the weight of the
accessory.  The drop prevention mechanism could be activated if you attempt to close the liftgate manually immediately af
ter the power lift-
gate has been comple
tely opened automati-
cally.

Avoid hard braking and high-speed driving. Stop the vehicle in a safe place and contact anauthorized Mitsubishi Mo
tors dealer or repair
facility of your choice.

After driving on snow or icy roads, remove any snow and ice which may have be leftaround the wheels. On vehicles that have an anti-lock braking syst
em, be careful not to
damage the wheel spee
d sensors (A) or the
cables located at each wheel.
N00568401084
The power steering system operates while the engine is running. It helps reduce the effort needed to turn the steering wheel.The power steering sy
stem has mechanical
steering capability in case the power assist is lost. If the power assist is lost for some rea-son, you will still be able to steer your vehi- cle, but you will notice it takes much more effort to steer. If this happens, have your vehi- cle inspected at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of yourchoice.

 The anti-lock braking
system warning light
and brake warning light illuminate at the same time and the wa
rning displays appear
alternately on the information screen in the multi-information display.

Electric power steering sys- tem (EPS)
WA R N I N G Do not stop the engine while the vehicle is moving. Stopping the engine would make the steering wheel extremely hard to turn, possibly resulting
in an ac
cident.
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 f
unction 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.
