NOTElTo maintain good running performance, the
transmission may refuse to perform an up- shift when the selector lever or the shift pad-dles are operated to the “+ (SHIFT UP)” po-
sition at certain vehicle speeds. Also, to pre- vent over-revving of the engine, the trans-
mission may refuse to perform a downshift when the selector lever or the shift paddlesare operated to the “— (SHIFT DOWN)”
position at certain vehicle speeds. When this
happens, a buzzer sounds to indicate that a downshift is not going to take place.
l Downward shifts are made automatically
when the vehicle slows down. When the ve-
hicle stops, 1 st
gear is automatically selected.
l When driving away on a slippery road, push
the selector lever forward into the “+(SHIFT UP)” position. This causes the trans-
mission to shift into the 2 nd
gear which is
better for smooth driving away on a slippery
road. Push the selector lever to the “—
(SHIFT DOWN)” side to shift back to the 1 st
gear.
l If the
A/T fluid temperature is high, the pro-
tection function operates. In this case, the
transmission may refuse to perform an up- shift when the selector lever or the shift pad-
dles are operated to the “+ (SHIFT UP)” po- sition in sports mode, or it may automatical-
ly downshift.Sports mode indicator

CAUTIONlIf the selector lever position display blinks
while you are driving, it is likely that a safe-
ty device is operating because of a malfunc- tion in the automatic transmission. Immedi-
ately have the vehicle inspected at a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.When the A/T (automatic trans-
mission) fluid temperature warning lamp comes on
E00615301236
The automatic transmission fluid temperature warning lamp comes on and a buzzer may
sound, when the automatic transmission fluid
temperature becomes abnormally high. Nor- mally the warning lamp comes on when the
ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the operation mode is put in ON, and then
will go off after a few seconds.
CAUTIONl If the lamp comes on, reduce the engine
speed and stop the vehicle in a safe area.Then set the selector lever to “P” (PARK)
position and idle the engine until the warn-
ing lamp goes off. When the warning lamp goes off, resume normal driving. If the
warning lamp does not go off, we recom- mend you to have your vehicle inspected.Operation of the A/T
E00604201697
CAUTIONl Before selecting a gear with the engine run-
ning and the vehicle stationary, fully depress
the brake pedal to prevent the vehicle from
creeping.
The vehicle will begin to move as soon as the gear is engaged, especially when the en- gine speed is high, at fast idle or with the airconditioner operating, the brakes should on-
ly be released when you are ready to drive
away.
l Depress the brake pedal with the right foot at
all times.
Using the left foot could cause driver move- ment delay in case of an emergency.
l To prevent sudden acceleration, never race
the engine when shifting from the “P”
(PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL) position.CAUTIONl Operating the accelerator pedal while the
other foot is resting on the brake pedal will affect braking efficiency and may cause pre-
mature wear of brake pads.
l Use the selector lever in the correct shift po-
sition in accordance with driving conditions.Never coast downhill backward with the se-
lector lever in the {“D” (DRIVE) or sports mode} or coast forward with the selector
lever in the “R” (REVERSE) position.
The engine may stop and the unexpected in- crease in brake pedal effort and steering
wheel weight could lead to an accident.
l Do not race the engine with brake pedal
pressed when the vehicle is stationary.
This can damage the A/T.
Also, when you depress the accelerator ped- al while holding down the brake pedal withthe selector lever in the “P” (PARK), “N”
(NEUTRAL) or “D” (DRIVE) position, the
engine revolutions may not rise as high as when performing the same operation with
the selector lever in the “N” (NEUTRAL)
position.Passing acceleration
E00604501342
To gain extra acceleration in “D” (DRIVE)
position, push the accelerator to the floor.The A/T will automatically downshift.

6-34OKTE18E1Starting and driving6

NOTElIn sports mode, downshifts do not take place
when the accelerator is depressed all the way to the floor.Waiting
E00604601372
For short waiting periods, such as at traffic
signals, the vehicle can be left in gear and held stationary with the service brake.
For longer waiting periods with the engine
running, place the selector lever in the “N” (NEUTRAL) position and apply the parking
brake, while holding the vehicle stationary with the service brake.
CAUTIONl Never hold the vehicle stationary on a hill
using the accelerator pedal (without using
the brake pedal). Always apply the parking brake and/or service brakes.Parking
E00604700187
To park the vehicle, first bring it to a com-
plete stop, fully engage the parking brake,and then move the selector lever to the “P”
(PARK) position.
If you are going to leave the vehicle unatten-
ded, always switch off the engine and carry the key.
NOTEl On a slope, be sure to apply the parking
brake before moving the selector lever to the
“P” (PARK) position. If you move the selec- tor lever to the “P” (PARK) position before applying the parking brake, it may be diffi-
cult to disengage the selector lever from the
“P” (PARK) position when next you drive the vehicle, requiring application of a strong
force to the selector lever to move from the
“P” (PARK) position.When the automatic transmis-
sion makes no speed change
E00604801882
If the transmission does not change speeds
while driving, or your vehicle does not pick up enough speed when starting on an uphillslope, it may be that there is something un-
usual happening in the transmission, causing a safety device to activate. Immediately have
your vehicle checked at a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point. 1. If your vehicle has difficulty moving up-
hill, shift the selector lever into 2 nd
gear
of the sports mode. This method might
not work depending on the transmission malfunction.
2. Once the vehicle is moving on a level
road, move the selector lever back to“D” (DRIVE).
NOTEl When the selector lever position display in
the instrument panel blinks, it means that
there is an abnormal condition in the trans- mission.
Refer to “When the selector lever position
display blinks” on page 6-33.Easy Select 4WD*
E00614701259
Shifting to rear-wheel drive or 4-wheel drivecan be made by operating the drive mode-se-
lector (A). Set the drive mode-selector to an appropriate position according to the roadsurface conditions. In addition, the 2WD/4WD operation indication lamp and the
low-range indication lamp indicates the drive
mode-selector setting state. Refer to “2WD/4WD operation indication lamp and low-range indication lamp” on page 6-38.
