Automatic transaxle will automaticallychange its gear depe
nding on road and driv-
ing conditions. This
helps achieve smooth
driving and excellent fuel efficiency.Also you can manually shift up and shiftdown the transaxle. Refer to “Sports mode”The transaxle prevents
unnecessary upshifts
even when the accelerator pedal is releasedand ensures smooth driving.According to the condi
tions, the transaxle
will automatically shift to a lower gear toachieve stronger engine braking. This mayhelp reduce your need to use the servicebrake.
N00513801424
As an additional safe
ty precaution, models
equipped with an automatic transaxle have ashift-lock device that holds the selector leverin the “P” (PARK) position. To move theselector lever from the “P” (PARK) positionto another position, follow the steps below.1. Press and hold the brake pedal down.2. Move the selector lever to the desiredposition.
The transaxle has 6 forward gears and 1reverse gear.
The individual gears are selected automati-cally, depending on the position of the gearselector lever, the speed of the vehicle and theposition of the ac
celerator pedal.

DRIVING DOWNHILL

NOTE
During the break-in pe
riod or immediately
after reconnecting the
battery, your vehicle
may not shift smoothly.
This does not indi-
cate a problem in the transaxle. Shifting willbecome smoother once the transaxle hasbeen shifted several
times by the electronic
control system.
Selector lever operation

NOTE
The selector lever cannot
be moved from “P”
mode is put in OFF or ACC, or if the brakepedal is not pressed and held down.

When the selector lever cannot be shiftedfrom the “P” (PARK) position to anotherposition while the brake pedal is pressed andheld down with the operation mode in ON,the battery may be flat or the shift-lock mech-anism may be malfunctioning.Immediately have your
vehicle checked by an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or arepair facility of your choice.If you need to move the vehicle, shift theselector lever as follows.1. Make sure the parking brake is firmlyapplied.2. Stop the engine if it is running.
3. Insert a screwdrive
r with a cloth over its
tip into the notch (A) of the cover. Prygently as shown to remove the cover.4. Depress the brake
pedal with the right
foot.5. Insert a screwdriver in the shift-lockrelease hole (B). Shift the selector lever tothe “N” (NEUTRAL) position whilepressing the screwdriver down.
Set the selector lever in the gate to operate.
WA R N I N GAlways press the brake pedal when shift-ing the selector
lever into a gear from the
“N” (NEUTRAL) position. When beginning to drive, do not shift theselector lever from
the “N” (NEUTRAL)
position while pressing the acceleratorpedal. This will cause the vehicle to“jump” forward or backward.NOTE
To prevent mistakes in operating the lever,make sure you stop brie
fly at each position.
After operating, chec
k the position in the
multi-information display.If the brake pedal is not depressed and held,the shift-lock device ac
tivates to prevent the
selector lever from being moved from the“P” (PARK) position. For a shift indicated by in the illustra-tion, depress the brake pedal before movingthe selector lever. If you attempt to move theselector lever before depressing the brakepedal, the selector lever may becomeimmovable.

If an abnormal condition occurs in the sys-tem, the following disp
lay/indicator will turn
on.Warning display
N00546301070
CAUTIONWhen display/indicator blinks, ASC isoperating, which means that the road is slip-pery or that your vehi
cle’s wheels are begin-
ning to slip. If this happens, drive slower.If the temperature in the braking system con-tinues to increase due
to continuous brake
control on a slippery
road surface, the
indicator will blink.To prevent the brake system from overheat-ing, the brake control
of the traction control
function will be tem
porarily suspended.
The engine control of the traction controlfunction and normal brake operation will notbe affected.Park your vehicle in a safe place. When thetemperature in the braking system has comedown, the indicator will be turned off andthe traction control func
tion will start operat-
ing again.NOTE
The indicator may come on when youstart the engine. This means that the batteryvoltage momentarily dropped when theengine was started. It
does not indicate a
malfunction, provided th
at the display goes
out immediately.
When a spare tire has been put on your vehi-cle, the gripping ability of the tire will belower, making it more likely that the dis-play/indicator will blink.

• When the system recognizes driver’ssteering, accelerati
ng, braking or gear
shifting actions as
evasive actions to
avoid collision.• When the rear of your vehicle is weigheddown with the weight of passengers andluggage.• Up to several seconds after starting driv-ing.• In adverse weather conditions, such asrain, snow, fog or sand-storm.• When the windshield of the sensor por-tion is covered with dirt, water droplets,snow and ice, etc.• When a vehicle ahea
d or an oncoming
vehicle is splashing wa
ter, snow or dirt.
• When using a windshield washer.• If windshield wipers are not MitsubishiMotors Genuine parts or equivalent. • When the sensor becomes extremely hotor cold.• If the battery becomes weak or runsdown.• When the sensor is affected by stronglight, such as direct
sunlight or the head-
lights of an oncoming vehicle.
The FCM may not detect a pedestrian incertain situations. Some of these include:• If the pedestrian is
shorter than approxi-
mately 3.2 feet (1 m) or taller thanapproximately 6.5 feet (2 m).WA R N I N G
• If the pedestrian is wearing loose-fittingclothes.• If part of a pedestrian’s body is hidden,such as when holding an umbrella, largebag, etc.• If a pedestrian bends forward, sits or lieson the road.• When a pedestrian is pushing/pullingsomething, such as a stroller, bicycle orwheelchair.• When pedestrians gather in a group.• When a pedestrian

1. If the tire pressure monitoring systemwarning light illuminates, avoiding hardbraking, sharp steering maneuvers andhigh speeds. You should stop and adjustthe tires to the proper inflation pressure assoon as possible. Adjust the spare tire atthe same time. Refer to “Tires” on page9-15.
2. If the tire pressure monitoring systemwarning light remain
s illuminated after
you have been driving for about 20 min-utes after you adjust the tire inflation pres-sure, one or more of the tires may have apuncture. Inspect the tire and if it has apuncture, have it repaired by an autho-rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer as soon aspossible.
The tire pressure monitoring system may notwork normally in the following circum-stances:A wireless facility
or device using the
same frequency is near the vehicle.Snow or ice is stuck inside the fendersand/or on the wheels.The tire inflation pressure sensor’s batteryis dead.Wheels other than Mitsubishi genuinewheels are being used.Wheels that are not fitted with tire infla-tion pressure sensors are being used.Wheels whose ID codes are not memo-rized by the vehicle are used.Compact spare tire is fitted as a roadwheel.
If the warning light / display illuminates while driving
NOTE
In addition, the warni
ng display is displayed
on the information screen in the multi-infor-mation display.When inspecting or adjusting the tire pres-sure, do not apply excessive force to thevalve stem to
avoid breakage.
After inspecting or adjusting the tire pres-sure, always reinstall the valve cap on thevalve stem.Without the valve cap, di
rt or moisture could
get into the valve, resulting in damage to thetire inflation pressure sensor.Do not use metal valve caps, which maycause a metal reaction,
resulting in corrosion
and damage of the tire
inflation pressure sen-
sors.
Once adjustments have
been made, the warn-
ing light will go off after a few minutes ofdriving.WA R N I N GIf the warning light
/ display illuminates
while you are driving, avoid hard braking,sharp steering maneuvers and highspeeds.Driving with an under-inflated tireadversely affects vehi
cle performance and
can result in an accident.CAUTIONIf a tire has a puncture, replace that tire withthe spare tire. Driving on a punctured tirecould lead to an accident.The warning light / di
splay may not illumi-
nate immediately in the
event of a tire blow-
out or rapid leak.NOTE
NOTE
To avoid the risk of damage to the tire infla-tion pressure sensors, have any puncturedtire repaired by an authorized MitsubishiMotors dealer. If the tire repair is not done byan authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer, it isnot covered by your warranty.Do not use an aerosol puncture-repair sprayon any tire.Such a spray could dama
ge the tire inflation
pressure sensors.Have any puncture repa
ired by an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
