To gain extra acceleration in “D” (DRIVE) position (when passing another vehicle) push the accelerator to the floor. The CVT will automatically downshift.
For short waiting periods, such as at traffic lights, the vehicle can be
left in selector lever
position and held stationary with the servicebrake. For longer waiting periods with the engine running, place th
e selector lever in the “N”
(NEUTRAL) position a
nd apply the parking
brake, while holding the vehicle stationary with the service brake. Prior to moving off after having stopped the vehicle, make sure that
the selector lever is in
“D” (DRIVE) position. To park the vehicle, first bring it to a com- plete stop, fully engage the parking brake,
Operation of the CVT

CAUTION Before selecting a pos
ition with the engine
running and the vehicl
e stationary, firmly
depress the brake pedal to prevent the vehi- cle from creeping. The vehicle will begin to
move as soon as the
CVT is engaged, especi
ally when the engine
speed or idle speed is
high, or with the air
conditioning operating.Do not release the br
ake pedal until you are
ready to drive away. Depress the brake pedal with the right foot at all times. Using the left foot c
ould cause driver move-
ment delay in case of an emergency. To prevent sudden acceleration, never run the engine at high rpms when shifting from the “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL). Operating the accelerator pedal while the other foot is resting
on the brake pedal will
affect braking efficien
cy and may cause pre-
mature wear of brake pads.
 Use the selector lever in the correct shift position in accordance with driving condi-tions.Never coast downhill backward in the driv- ing shift position “D” (DRIVE), “Ds” (DOWNSHIFT & SPORTY DRIVING), “L”(LOW) or coast forward in the “R” (REVERSE) position. Engine stopping and increased brake pedaland steering effort could
lead to an accident.
Do not rev the engine
with the brake pedal
pressed when the vehicle is stationary. This can damage the CVT. Also, when you depress
the accelerator pedal
while holding down the brake pedal with the selector lever in th
e “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

CAUTION
Waiting

CAUTION To avoid transmission
overheating, never try
to keep your vehicle st
ationary on a hill by
using the accelerator
pedal. Always apply
the parking brake and/or service brake. Do not rev the engine unnecessarily while the vehicle is stationary. Unexpected acceler-ation may occur if the selector lever is in a position other than “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL).

and then move the sele
ctor lever to the “P”
(PARK) position. If the CVT does not shift while driving, or your vehicle does not pick up enough speed when starting on an uphill slope, it may bethat there is something unusual happening in the transmission. Have your vehicle checked at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of
your choice immediately.
N00517501328
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, use engine braking by movi
ng the selector lever
to “Ds” (DOWNSHIFT & SPORTY DRIV-ING) or “L” (LOW) position.
N00517600436
Your vehicle is equipped with power brakesfor more braking force with less brake pedaleffort. Your brakes are designed to operate at full capacity, even if the power assist is not beingused. If the power assist is not being used, the effort needed to press the br
ake pedal is greater.
If you should lose the power assist for some reason, 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. Have the brake system repaired at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your
choice immediately.

Service brake Brake pedal
WA R N I N G Do not leave any obje
cts near the brake
pedal or let a floor
mat slide under it;
doing so could prevent the full pedalstroke that would be necessary in an emergency. Make sure that the pedal can be 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 when braking is not required.
This practice can
result in very high brake temperatures, pre- mature lining wear, a
nd possible damage to
the brakes.
Power brakes
WA R N I N G Never coast downhill
with the engine OFF.
Keep the engine running whenever your vehicle is in motion. If you turn off theengine while driving, the power brake booster will stop wo
rking and your brakes
will not work as well. If the power assist is lost or if either brake hydraulic system stop
s working properly,
take your vehicle
to an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer
or a repair facil-
ity of your choice immediately.

Anti-lock braking system 5-50 Features and controls
5
N00517900338
The anti-lock braking system helps prevent the wheels from locking up when braking. This helps maintain ve
hicle drivability and
steering wheel handling.  When using the anti-lock brakes (sudden braking), steering is
slightly different
from normal driving conditions. Use the steering wheel carefully. Always keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you. Even if your vehi- cle is equipped with
the anti-lock braking
system, leave a greater braking distance when: • Driving on gravel or snow-coveredroads. • Driving on uneven road surfaces.  Operation of anti-lock braking system is not restricted situati
ons where brakes are
applied suddenly. This system may also prevent the wheels from locking whenyou drive over manholes, steel roadwork plates, road markings
, or any uneven road
surface.
 When the anti-lock braking system is in use, you may feel the brake pedal vibrat-ing and hear a unique sound. It may also feel as if the pedal
resists being pressed.
In this situation, si
mply hold the brake
pedal down firmly. Do not pump the brake, which will result in reduced braking performance.
N00531600674
If there is a malfunction in the system, the anti-lock braking system warning light will come on.Under normal conditions, the ABS warning light comes on when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the operationmode is put in ON and goes off a few seconds later.
Anti-lock braking system Driving hints
CAUTION The anti-lock braking system cannot prevent accidents. It is your
responsibility to take
safety precautions and to drive carefully. To prevent failure of the anti-lock braking system, be sure all 4 wheels and tires are the same size and the same type.NOTE
 You may feel the operating sound or vibra- tion from under the body when driving immediately after starti
ng the engine. This is
a normal result the anti-lock braking systemmakes when performing a self-check. It does not indicate a problem.  The anti-lock braking system can be used after the vehicle has
reached a speed over
approximately 6 mph (10 km/h). It stops working when the vehicle slows below 3mph (5 km/h).
Anti-lock braking system warn- ing light
CAUTION Any of the following indicates that the anti- lock braking system is not functioning andonly the standard brake system is working. (The standard brake system is functioning normally.) If this happe
ns, take your vehicle
to an authorized Mits
ubishi Motors dealer or
a repair facility of your choice.

Active stability control (ASC) 5-52 Features and controls
5
If there is a malfunction in the system, the warning light will come on. Under normal conditions
, the warning lamp
comes on when the ignition switch is turnedto the “ON” position or the operation mode is put in ON, and goes off after the engine has started.
N00559100176
The Active stability
control (ASC) takes
overall control of the
anti-lock braking sys-
tem, traction control function and skid controlfunction to help maintain the vehicle’s control and traction. Please read
this section in con-
junction with the page on the anti-lock brak-ing system, traction control function and skid control function. Anti-lock braking system

Skid control function
 P.5-53
WA R N I N GDo not stop the engine while the vehicle is moving. Stopping the engine would makethe 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 are manoeuvring the vehicl
e into a parking
space), a protection
function may be acti-
vated to prevent overheating of the power steering system. This f
unction will make the
steering wheel gradually 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 headlights will return to their original brightne
ss after a short while.
Electric power steering system warning light
CAUTION If the warning light a
ppears while the engine
is running, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or arepair facility of your choice as soon as pos- sible. It may become ha
rder to turn the steer-
ing wheel.
Active stability control (ASC)
CAUTION Do not over-rely on the ASC. Even the ASC cannot prevent the natural laws of physicsfrom acting on the vehicle. This system, like any other system, has li
mits and cannot help
you to maintain traction and control of thevehicle in all circumstances. Reckless driv- ing can lead to accident
s. It is the driver’s
responsibillty to drive carefully, This meanstaking into account the tr
affic, road and envi-
ronmental conditions. Be sure to use the same specified type and size of tire on all four wheels. Otherwise, the ASC may not work properly.

Tire pressure monitoring
system (if so equipped)
5-60 Features and controls
5
Each tire, including the spare, should be checked monthly when cold and inflated tothe inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on
the vehicle placard
or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehi-cle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle
placard or tire infla-
tion pressure label, you should determine theproper tire inflation pre
ssure for those tires.)
As an added safety fe
ature, your vehicle has
been equipped with a ti
re pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of yourtires is significan
tly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pressure tell- tale illuminates, you should stop and checkyour tires as soon as
possible, and inflate
them to the proper pressure. Driving on a sig- nificantly under-inflated
tire causes the tire to
overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehi-cle’s handling and stoppi
ng ability. Please
note that the TPMS is
not a substitute for
proper tire maintenance,
and it is the driver’s
responsibility to
maintain corre
ct tire pres-
sure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMSlow tire pressure telltale. Your vehicle has also
been equipped with a
TPMS malfunction indica
tor to indicate when
the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combinedwith the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one min-ute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as
long as the malfunction
exists. When the malfunction indicator is illumi- nated, the system may not
be able to detect or
signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may
occur for a variety
of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from function-ing properly. Always check the TPMS mal- function telltale after
replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure thatthe replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function prop- erly.
CAUTION If the tire pressure monitoring system warn- ing light does not illumi
nate when the igni-
tion switch is turned to the “ON” position orthe operation mode is put in ON, it means that the tire pressure monitoring system is not working properly. Have the systeminspected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. In such situations,
a malfunctioning of the
system may be preventing the monitoring of the tire pressure. Avoid sudden braking, sharp turning and high-speed driving. If a malfunction is detected in the tire pres- sure monitoring system, the tire pressuremonitoring system warn
ing light will blink
for approximately 1 minute and then remain continuously illuminated. The warning lightwill issue further warnings each time the engine is restarted as
long as the malfunction
exists.Check to see whether
the warning light goes
off after few minutes driving. If it then goes off during driving, there is noproblem. However, if the warning light does not go off, or if it blinks again when the engine isrestarted, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. In such situations,
a malfunctioning of the
system may be preventing the monitoring of the tire pressure. For safety reasons, when the warning light appears while driving,avoid sudden braking, sharp turning and high-speed driving.
