Normally the indicator illuminates when the operation mode put in ON, and then the drivemode is displayed a few seconds after the engine is started. The status of each drive mode display is asfollows. On vehicles with color liquid crystal display meter, the drive mode is displayed as an inter-rupt display on the information screen in the multi information display when the drive mode is switched.
After a few seconds, the information screen returns from the drive mode display to theprevious screen.
NOTE
 The drive mode can be
switched while driv-
ing or stopped.

While the drive mode is in the “4WD AUTO”
ON, the drive mode will be changed to “4WD ECO” mode.If the ECO mode switch is switched OFF, the drive mode will be returned to “4WD AUTO”Refer to the “ECO mode switch” on page 5-231.

S-AWC is an integr
ated vehicle dynamics
control system that helps enhance driving performance, cornering performance, and vehicle stability over a wide range of drivingconditions through integr
ated management of
the electronically cont
rolled 4WD, the AYC
(Active Yaw Control), the ABS and the ASC.
The electronically controlled 4WD is a sys- tem that improves acceleration performance and stability performance by controlling front-rear distribution of driving torque withoperating the electronic control coupling arranged in the rear differential assembly. The AYC is a system, with a left-right differ- ential limiting function
and yaw control func-
tion, that controls the left-rightdriving/braking force by managing the AFD* (Active Front Differential), the brake, the EPS.*: AFD (Active Front Differential)
 If the drive mode indicator (4WD) is blink- ing, a problem has occurred with the elec-tronically controlled
4WD. A warning will
also be displayed in
the information screen
in the multi information display. Warning display (color
liquid crystal dis-
play) Have your vehicle in
spected by an autho-
rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.For vehicles equipped with mono-color liq- uid crystal display mete
r, drive mode indica-
tor (“4WD-E”, “LOCK”)
is blinking at the
same time. Make sure that all four tires are the same specified size, type, a
nd brand, and have no
significant difference
in the amount of wear.
Otherwise, the elec
tronically controlled
4WD system may not work properly, and the 4WD system warning (overheating or ser- vice required) may displayed.
When the ECO mode switch is ON
CAUTION
NOTE
 If the drive mode is switched in any mode after the drive mode is switched in “4WD ECO”, the drive mode
will not be changed
even if the ECO mode switch is switched OFF.

 Do not over-rely on the S-AWC. Even the S- AWC cannot prevent the natural laws ofphysics from acting on the vehicle. This sys-tem, like any other system, has limits and cannot help you to main
tain traction and con-
trol of the vehicle in
all circumstances. Reck-
less driving can lead to
accidents. It is the
driver’s responsibility to drive carefully. This means taking into account the traffic,road and environmental conditions.

Set the drive mode-selector to “4WD LOCK” (Electronically controlled 4WD) or “LOCK” accelerator pedal for a
smooth start. Keep the
pressure on the accelera
tor pedal as constant
as possible, and drive at low speed.
Your vehicle may not pr
ovide sufficient hill
climbing ability and e
ngine braking on steep
slope. Avoid driving on steep slopes even though the vehicle is an 4-wheel drive vehi- cle.

If the electrical circuits become wet, furtheroperation of the vehicl
e will be impossible;
therefore, avoid driv
ing through water unless
absolutely necessary. If driving through wateris unavoidable, use th
e following procedure:
Check the depth of the water and the terrain before attempting to drive through it. Drive slowly to avoid creating excessive watersplashing.
Driving on sandy or muddy roads
CAUTION Do not force the vehicle or drive recklessly on sandy surfaces. In comparison with nor-mal road surfaces, th
e engine and other
drive-system components are put under excessive strain when driving on such a sur-face. This could le
ad to accidents.
If any of the following conditions occur while the vehicle is
being driven, immedi-
ately park your vehicle
in a safe place and
follow these procedures:• If the engine coolan
t temperature display
flashes on the information screen in the multi-information di
splay or the engine
power drops suddenly.Refer to “Engine overh
eating” on page 8-4.
• If the “ ” warning
display and “SLOW
DOWN” or the “ ” warning display and “SERVICE REQUIRED” appear on the information screen in the multi-informationdisplay. Refer to “Warning di
splay” on page 5-70,
5-78.WA R N I N G When attempting to rock your vehicle out of a stuck position, be
sure that the area
around the vehicle is clear of people and physical objects. The rocking motion may cause the vehicle to suddenly launch for-ward/backward, caus
ing injury or dam-
age to nearby people or objects.NOTE
 Avoid sudden braking,
sudden acceleration
and sharp turning; such operations could result in the vehicle becoming stuck.  If the vehicle become
s stuck in sandy or
muddy roads, it can often be moved with arocking motion. Move the selector lever alternately between the

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.

CAUTION Do not tow 4-wheel drive vehicles with the front or rear wheels on the ground (Type A or Type B) as illustrate
d. This could result in
damage to the drivetrain, or unstable towing.If you tow 4-wheel drive vehicles, use TypeC or Type D equipment. Even in “4WD ECO” (Electronically con- trolled 4WD) or “AWC ECO” (S-AWC) drive mode, the vehicle cannot be towed with the front or the rear wheels on theground.
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 objects 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 can
result in very high brake temperatures, pre- mature lining wear, a
nd possible damage to
the brakes.
