N00523700373
The rear window defogger can be used when the engine is running.
The indicator light (A) will come on when you press the electric rear window defogger switch. Electric current will flow through the heating wires on the rear window to helpclear away moisture or frost. After about 20 minutes of operation, the sys- tem will shut off automatically.To switch the defogger OFF before 20 min-utes have passed, press the switch again. The indicator light will go out and the defogger will turn off.If you need the defogger for more than 20 minutes, press the switch again. This will add 20 more minutes.

To honk the horn, press around the “ ”mark on the steering wheel.
 If the moving wipers become blocked part- way through a sweep by ice or other deposits on the glass, the wipers may temporarily stop operating to prevent the motor from over- heating. In this case, park the vehicle in asafe place, turn the ignition switch to the “OFF” position or put the operation mode in OFF, and then remove the ice or other depos-its. Because the wipers will start operating again after the wiper motor cools down, check thatthe wipers operate before using them.  Avoid using the washer for more than 20 sec- onds at a time. Do not operate the washer when the washer fluid reservoir is empty or the pump may fail.  During cold weather, add a recommended washer solution that will not freeze in thewasher fluid reservoir. Otherwise the washer may not work or may be damaged.  Replace the wiper blades when they are worn. Use the proper size replacement blades. For further information, please con-tact your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.

Canadian radio-frequency laws require trans- mitter signals to “time-out” (or quit) after several seconds of transmission - which may not be long enough for HomeLink
® to pick
up the signal during programming. Similar tothis Canadian law, some U.S. gate operators are designed to “time-out” in the same man- ner.The indicator LED on the hand-held transmit- ter will go off when the device times out indi- cating that it has finished transmitting.If you live in Canada or
you are having diffi-
culties programming a gate operator or garage door opener by using the “Program-ming” procedures, replace “Programming a new HomeLink
®” step 3 with the following:
3. Press and release - every 2 seconds (“cycle”) your hand-held transmitter until the HomeLink
® indicator light changes from
slowly flashing orange to either rapidly flash-ing green (rolling code) or continuously lit green (fixed code). Now you may release the hand-held transmitter button.Proceed with “Programming a new Home- Link
®” step 4 to complete.
N00584900035
The HomeLink
® has the capability of receiv-
ing garage door status from compatible garage door opener systems. Check your garage door opener manual for the available feature and HomeLink
® compatibility. Also
for a listing of compatible systems contact HomeLink
® at: www.homelink.com
1. Within 5 seconds after successfully pro- gramming the garage door opener (refer to “Programming a new HomeLink
®”
section), both garage door operation indi- cators (A) will flash rapidly green indicat- ing that the garage door feedback hasbeen enabled. If the indicators do not flash, perform steps 2 and 3 while pressing the Home- Link
® button up to the first 10 times after
successful programming. 2. Press and release the programmed Home- Link
® button to activate the door. You
now have 1 minute in which to complete step 3.
NOTE
 In the event that there are still programming difficulties or questions, additional Home- Link
® information and programming videos
can be found online at www.homelink.com, www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex, or by calling the HomeLink
® Hotline.

 Before changing lanes, check your mir- rors and use your turn-signal light.  While driving, watch the behavior of other drivers, bicyclists, and pedestrians. Always obey applicable laws and regula- tions. Be a polite and alert driver. Always leave room for unexpected events, such assudden braking.  If you plan to drive in another country, obey their vehicle registration laws andmake sure you will be able to get the rightfuel.
N00629400461
 Check the battery. At the same time, check the terminals and wiring. During extremely cold weather, the battery will not be as strong. Also, the battery powerlevel may drop because more power is used for cold starting and driving. Before driving the vehicle, check to see ifthe engine runs at the proper speed and if the headlights are as bright as normally. Charge or replace the battery if necessary.During extreme cold weather, it is possi- ble that a very low battery could freeze.
 Warm the engine sufficiently. After start- ing the engine, allow a short warm-up time to distribute oil to all cylinders. Then drive your vehicle slowly. Stay at low speeds at first so that the transaxle, transfer case and rear axle oil have time to spread to all the lubricationpoints.  Manual transaxle can be harder to shift in cold weather conditions. This is normaland shifting will get easier as the transaxle warms up.  Check the engine antifreeze. If there is not enough coolant because of a leak or from engine overheating, add Mitsubishi Motors Genuine Super LongLife Coolant Premium or equivalent. Please read this section in conjunction with the “Engine coolant” on page 9-7.
N00629500491
All the parts of the brake system are criticalto safety. Have the vehicle serviced by anauthorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice at regular inter- vals according to the “WARRANTY ANDMAINTENANCE MANUAL”. Check the brake system while driving at a low speed immediately after starting, espe- cially when the brakes are wet, to confirm they work normally.A film of water can be formed on the brake discs and prevent normal braking after driv- ing in heavy rain or through large puddles, orafter the vehicle is wash
ed. If this occurs, dry
the brakes out by driving slowly while lightly depressing the brake pedal.
Driving during cold weather
WA R N I N G The battery gives off explosive hydrogen gas. Any spark or flame can cause the bat- tery to explode, which could cause serious injury or death. Always wear protective clothes and a facemask when working with your battery, or let a skilled mechanic do it.
WA R N I N G Never open the radiator cap when the radiator is hot. You could be seriously burned.

On snowy roads, ice can form on the braking system, making the brakes less effective.While driving in such
conditions, pay close
attention to preceding and following vehicles and to the condition of
the road surface. From
time to time, lightly depress the brake pedal and check how effective the brakes are. It is important to take advantage of the engine braking by downshifting while driving on steep downhill roads in order to prevent the brakes from overheating.
N00629600304
When parking on a hill, set the parking brake,and turn the front wheels toward the curb on adownhill, or away from the curb on an uphill. If necessary, apply chocks to wheels.
Place the gearshift lever into the “R” (Reverse) position when parking on a down- hill slope, into the 1st position when parkingon an uphill slope. Be sure that the parking brake is firmly set when parked and that the selector lever is in the “P” (PARK) position. When parking on a hill, it is important to setthe parking brake before moving the selector lever to the “P” (PARK) position. This pre- vents loading the parking brake against thetransaxle. When this happens, it is difficult to move the selector lever out of the “P” (PARK) position. Never leave the engi
ne running while you
take a short sleep or rest. Also, never leave the engine running in a closed or poorly ven- tilated place.
Your front bumper can be damaged if you scrape it over curbs or parking stop blocks.Be careful when traveling up or down steep slopes where your bumper can scrape the road. More effort could be required to turn the steering wheel. Refer to “Electric power steering system (EPS)” on page 5-69.
