The “A” indicator blinks only if the CVT selector lever switch is broken.It is not seen during normal driving.
CAUTION If a malfunction occurs in the CVT while driving, the indicator will blink.In this case, immediat
ely park your vehicle

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) Features and controls 5-53
5
N00559200076
On slippery surfaces, the traction control function prevents the drive wheels from spin-
ning excessive, thus helping the vehicle to start moving from a stopp
ed condition.
It also
provides sufficient driv
ing force and steering
performance as the vehicle turns while press- ing the acceleration pedal.
N00559300051
The skid control function is designed to helpthe driver maintain control of the vehicle onslippery roads or during rapid steering maneuvers. It works by controlling the engine output and the brake on each wheel.
N00559400254
The ASC is automatically activated when theignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the operation mode is put in ON. You can
deactivate the system
by pressing down the
“ASC OFF” switch for
3 seconds or longer.
When the ASC is deactivated, the indica- tor will turn on. To reactivate the ASC, momentarily press the “ASC OFF” switch; the indicator is turned off.
Do not install any af
termarket limited slip
differential (LSD) on your vehicle. The ASCmay stop functioning properly.NOTE
An operating sound or vibration may be emitted from under the body in the followingsituations. The sound or
vibration is associ-
ated with checking th
e operations of the
ASC. At this time, you may feel a shockfrom under the body and the brake pedal if you depress it. These do
not indicate a mal-
function. • When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the operation mode is putin ON. • When the vehicle is driven for a while after the engine is turned on.
When the ASC is acti
vated, you may feel a
vibration in the vehicle body or hear a whin- ing sound from the engine compartment. This indicates that the system is operatingnormally. It does not i
ndicate a malfunction.
When the anti-lock braking system warning light is illuminated, the ASC is not active.

CAUTION
CAUTION When driving a vehicle on a snowy or icy road, be sure to install snow tires and drive the vehicle at moderate speeds.
Skid control function
NOTE
The skid control func
tion operates at speeds
of about 9 mph (15 km/h) or higher.
ASC OFF switch
CAUTION For safety reasons, the “ASC OFF” switch should be operated when your vehicle isstopped. Be sure to keep the ASC on while driving in normal circumstances.NOTE
Using the “ASC OFF”
switch turns off both
the stability control function and the traction control function.

Put the operation mode in OFF or ACC. Indicator is turned OFF.
N00530201612
The tire pressure monitoring system uses tire inflation pressure sensors (A) on the wheelsto monitor the tire inflation pressures. The system only indicates when a tire is signifi- cantly under-inflated.
N00532701363
When the ignition switch is turned to the“ON” position or the operation mode is put inON, the tire pressure monitoring system warning light normally
illuminates and goes
off a few seconds later. If one or more of the vehicle tires (except for the spare tire) is significantly under-inflated, the warning light will remain illuminated while the ignition switch or the operationmode is in ON. Refer to “If the warning light illuminates while driving” on page 5-61 and take the nec-essary measures.
Tire pressure monitoring system
(if so equipped)
WA R N I N G The compact spare wheel does not have a tire inflation pressure sensor.When the spare tire is used, the tire pres-sure monitoring system will not work properly. See an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors
dealer as soon as possible to replace or repair the original tire.NOTE
The tire pressure monitoring system is not a substitute for regularly
checking tire infla-
tion pressures. Be sure to check the tire inflation pressures as described in “Tires” on page 9-12. The tire inflation pressure sensor (A) is installed in the illustrated location.Replace rubber air valve (B) with a new one when the tire is replaced. For details, please
contact your authorized
