N00520600313
This light comes on in the event of a malfunc- tion in the charging system or when the igni-tion switch is turned to the “ON” position (engine off) or the operation mode is put in ON. When the engine
is started, the light
should go out. Check to make sure that the light has gone out before driving.
N00520700170
This light comes on when the engine oil pres-sure is below normal. If the light stays on while driving, stop the
engine as soon as pos-
sible. Do not run the e
ngine until the cause of
the low oil pressure is corrected.
N00575700011
This light comes on in red if the coolant tem- perature becomes excessively high.
N00520901342
This light comes on when any door is open ornot completely closed. When the vehicle is moving at more than 5 mph (8 km/h) and any door is open or ajar, atone will sound 4 times to inform the driver that any door is not properly shut.
NOTE
 Do not disconnect the ba
ttery cable when the
engine malfunction i
ndicator (“SERVICE
ENGINE SOON” or “Che
ck engine light”) is
on. The engine electronic
control module stores
critical OBD information (especially exhaustemission data), which ma
y be lost if the bat-
tery cable is disconne
cted while the engine
malfunction indicator is
on. This will make it
difficult to diagnose th
e cause of future prob-
lems.
Charging system warning light
CAUTION If the warning light stays on while the engine is running, park your ve
hicle in a safe place
as soon as possible and
contact an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer
or a repair facility
of your choice to have the system checked.

CAUTION If the light comes on
during vehicle opera-
tion, it indicates that
the engine is possibly
overheating. Continued driving could makethe engine fail. Immedi
ately stop the vehicle
in a safe place and ta
ke appropriate action.
(Refer to “Engine overh
eating” on page 8-4.)
NOTE
The high coolant temp
erature warning light
may illuminate when

Engine overheating 8-4 For emergencies
8
If you drive your vehicl
e with a low battery
charge after the engine has been started byusing jumper cables, th
e engine may misfire.
This can cause the anti-lock braking system warning light to blink on
and off. This is only
due to the low battery voltage. It is not a problem with the brake system. If this hap- pens, fully charge the battery and ensure the charging system is operating properly.
N00836501418
If the high coolant temperature warning lightilluminates while the e
ngine is running, the
engine may be overhea
ting. If this happens:
1. Stop the vehicle in a safe place. Turn on the hazard warning flashers. 2. With the engine still running, carefully raise the engine hood to vent the enginecompartment. 3. Check that the cooling fan is running. If the fan is not turning, stop the engineimmediately and contact an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facil- ity of your choice for assistance.
4. If you see steam or spray coming from under the hood, turn off the engine. 5. If you do not see steam or spray coming from under the hood, leave the engine onuntil the high coolant
temperature warn-
ing light goes off. After the high coolant temperature warning light has gone off,you can start driving again. If the high coolant temperature warning light stays on, turn off the engine. 6. When you do not see any more steam or spray, open the hood. Look for obviousleaks, such as a split radiator hose. Be careful as components will be hot. Any leak source must be repaired.
Charging the battery by using an external battery charger
WA R N I N G Always remove the
battery from your
vehicle when the battery is charged by an external battery charger. Keep sparks, cigarette
s, and flames away
from the battery because the battery couldexplode. Keep your work area well vented when charging or using
the battery in an
enclosed space. Remove all the caps before charging the battery. Electrolyte (battery acid) is made of corro- sive diluted sulfuric acid. If electrolyte comes in contact with your hands, eyes,clothes, or the pain
ted surface of your
vehicle, thoroughly
flush with water. If
electrolyte gets in your eyes, flush themimmediately and thor
oughly with water,
and get prompt medical attention. Always wear protective clothing and gog- gles when working near the battery. Keep the battery out of the reach of chil- dren.

The condition of the batte
ry is very important
for quick starting and to keep the vehicle’s electrical system working properly. Check thebattery regularly.
N00901500072
The electrolyte level
must be between the
limits shown on the outside of the battery. Fill it with distilled water as needed. The inside ofthe battery is divided into several compart- ments. Take the cap off of each compartment and fill to the mark.Do not fill above the top line because a spill during driving could cause damage.
N00901600060
The battery is weaker in cold temperatures. This has to do with its chemical and physical properties and is why a very cold battery, especially one with a lo
w charge, will have a
hard time starting your vehicle. It is recommended that you have your battery and charging system checked by an autho-rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair
facility of your choice
before the start of cold
weather. If necessary, have it charged. Thiswill provide more reliab
le starting, and longer
battery life.
N00901701169
To disconnect the battery cable, stop theengine. Disconne
ct the negative (-) terminal
first, then the positive
(+) terminal. To recon-
nect the battery, first
connect the positive (+)
terminal and then the negative (-) terminal,before starting the vehicle.
 Keep the reservoir cap closed to keep the brake fluid from evaporating.
Battery Checking battery electrolyte level
CAUTION
WA R N I N G If the battery goes flat, be sure to check the battery electrolyte level before con-necting booster cables. After checking the battery electrolyte level, make sure the caps are fitted securely. If any of the caps has a loose fit, replace the battery.

It is important to familiarize yourself with the following terms:  Cold tire pressure: • The measured pressure after the vehicle has been parked for
at least three hours,
or• The measured pressure when the vehicle is driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) after having been parked for three hours.
 Maximum pressure: the maximum per- missible cold tire inflation pressure for this tire.
WA R N I N G Never disconnect the battery while the engine is running, or you could damagethe vehicle’s electrical parts. Never short-circuit the battery. This could cause it to overheat and be damaged. Keep sparks, cigarette
s, and flames away
from the battery because the battery couldexplode. Electrolyte (battery acid) is made of corro- sive diluted sulfuric acid. If it spills on nearby parts, it can crack, stain, or dis- color them. And if it gets on your skin orin your eyes, it can cause burns or blind- ness. Please observe the following han- dling instructions:• If electrolyte gets on plastic parts orother nearby parts, wipe it off with a softcloth or chamois soak
ed in a solution of
water and neutral detergent then imme- diately rinse the affected parts withplenty of water.• If electrolyte gets on your hands orclothes, rinse thoroughly with water. If electrolyte gets in
your eyes, flush them
with water immediately and get immedi-ate medical attention.
 Open doors and wind
ows in any closed
space where you may be charging or working with the battery. Always wear protective clothing and gog- gles when working with the battery, or have a skilled automobi
le technician do it.
If you are quick-charging your battery, first disconnect the battery cables. In order to prevent a short-circuit, be sure to disconnect the negative (-) terminal first, and reconnect it last. Battery posts, termin
als and related acces-
sories contain lead
and lead compounds.
Wash hands after handling.NOTE
 Check each battery terminal for corrosion. You can stop more corrosion by washing with a solution of baking soda and water. Grease the posts and cl
amps after cleaning or
tightening them.  Check to see that the battery is securely installed and cannot be
moved. Also check
each terminal for tightness.  If you will not be driv
ing your vehicle for a
long period of time, re
move the battery and
store it in a place where the battery fluid willnot freeze. The batter
y only should be stored
with a full charge.  Before cleaning the ba
ttery, tighten all the
filler port caps to keep
dirt and moisture out.

Tires
WA R N I N GDriving with tires that are worn, damaged or improperly inflated is dangerous.These type tire conditions will adversely affect vehicle performance. These type tire conditions can also cause atread separation or blowout which may result in an accide
nt causing serious
injury or death. Tires, including spar
e tire, degrade over
time with age even when they are notbeing used. It is recommended that tires over 6 years generally be replaced even if damage isnot obvious.
