N00514201425
This position locks the transaxle to prevent the vehicle from moving.
The engine can be
started in the “P” (PARK) position. Move the lever to this position only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop. At this position, the transaxle is disengaged. It is the same as th
e neutral position on a
manual transaxle and should be used when the vehicle is not moving for an extended length of time during driving, such as in atraffic jam.
This position is used for most city and high- way driving. The transaxle will automatically change its gear depe
nding on road and driv-
ing conditions.
This position is for dr
iving up very steep hills
and for engine braking at low speeds when driving down steep hills.

While the vehicle is stopped or being drivenwith the selector lever in the “D” (DRIVE) or “L” (LOW) position, sports mode can be selected by pulling one of the sportronicsteering wheel paddle shifter towards you. In sports mode, rapid shifting is possible sim- ply by operating the spor
tronic steering wheel
paddle shifter. Unlike the manual transaxle, sports mode allows shifting with the accelerator pedaldepressed.
Selector lever positions
“P” PARK
“R” REVERSE
CAUTION Never shift into the “P” (PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in motion. If the lever is shifted into the “P” (PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position whilethe vehicle is in moti
on, the transaxle may be
damaged.
“N” NEUTRAL
WA R N I N G Never move the selector lever to the “N” (NEUTRAL) position while driving sinceyou could accidentally slip it into the “P”(PARK) or “R” (REVERSE) position, damaging the transaxle. To prevent the vehicle from rolling when stopped on a slope,
the engine should be
started in the “P” (PARK) position, not in“N” (NEUTRAL) position. To prevent rolling, always keep your foot on the brake pedal when the vehicle is in “N” (NEUTRAL) positi
on, or when shift-
ing into or out of
“N” (NEUTRAL) posi-
tion.
“D” DRIVE
CAUTION To prevent transaxle damage, never shift into the “D” (DRIVE) position from the “R” (REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in motion.
“L” LOW
WA R N I N G This position can be used for maximum engine braking. Be very careful not to shift into “L” (LOW) suddenly.Sudden engine braking may cause the tires to skid. Select this position according to the roadconditions and vehicle speed.

in the multi-information display while you are driving, there could be a malfunction inthe CVT.
N00560601107
This position locks the transmission to pre-vent the vehicle from m
oving. The engine can
be started in the “P” (PARK) position. Move the lever to this position only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop.
At this position, the transmission is disen- gaged. It is the same
as the neutral position on
a manual transaxle and should be used whenthe vehicle is not m
oving for an extended
length of time during driving, such as in a traffic jam.
CAUTION If a malfunction occurs in the CVT while driving, the warning display or the warning display will
appear on the informa-
tion screen in the multi-information display. In this case, follow these procedures: [When warning display is showing] The continuously variable transmission (CVT) fluid is overhea
ting. The engine con-
trol may activate to lower the CVT fluid tem-perature, causing the e
ngine revolutions and
vehicle speed to decrease, In this case, take one of the following procedures.• Slow down your vehicle.• Stop your vehicle in a
safe place, put the
selector lever in the “P” (PARK) position, and open the engine hood with the enginerunning to allow the engine to cool down.
After a while, confirm that the warning display is no longer show
ing. It is safe to
continue driving if the display is no longer showing. If the warning display remains, contact an authorized Mitsubishi Motorsdealer or a repair facility of your choice immediately. [When warning di
splay is showing]
It may be that ther
e is something unusual
happening in the CVT, causing a safetydevice to activate
. Have your vehicle
inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of yourchoice immediately.

eaner on the sensor.
Also, do not spill liquid, such as a bever- age, to the sensor.• Do not install an electronic device, such as antenna, or a device th
at emits strong elec-
tric waves, near the sensor.CAUTION
• Always use tires of the same size, sametype and same brand,
and which have no
significant wear differences.• Do not modify the vehicle’s suspensions. If the windshield on the sensor or in the sur- rounding area of the sensor is cracked or scratched, the sensor

Brake fluid 9-14 Vehicle care and maintenance
9
N00938701327
Check the fluid level in the reservoir. The fluid level must be between the “MAX” and “MIN” marks on the reservoir. The fluid level falls slightly with wear of the brake pads, but this
does not indicate any
abnormality.If the fluid level falls se
aled tight in a short
length of time, it indi
cates leaks from the
brake system.If this occurs, have the vehicle checked by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.
Use the recommended brake fluid conform- ing to DOT 3 or DOT 4. The reservoir cap must be tightly sealed to keep dirt and waterout.
N00939101940
The condition of the battery is very important for quick starting and to keep the vehicle’s electrical system working properly. Check thebattery regularly. If battery performance is suspect, have the battery and charging system tested by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice. The electrolyte level
must be between the
limits shown on the outside
of the battery. Fill
it with distilled water
as needed. The inside of
the battery is divided into several compart- ments. Take the cap off of each compartment and fill to the mark.
Brake fluid To check the fluid level
Fluid type
WA R N I N G Take care in handling brake fluid as it is harmful to the eyes, may irritates yourskin and will damage
painted surfaces.
Wipe up spills immediately. If brake fluid gets on your hands or inyour eyes, flush imme
diately with clean
water. Follow up with a doctor as neces- sary.CAUTION Do not let any petrol
eum-based fluid touch,
mix with, or get into the brake fluid. This will damage the seals. Be careful when handling brake fluid. It can damage painted surfaces. Use only the listed brake fluid. Different brands of brake fluid have different addi- tives, and these can cause a chemical reac- tion. Do not mix brands of brake fluid. Keep the reservoir ta
nk cap closed to keep
the brake fluid from evaporating.

NOTE
After replacing the battery, the electronic control system data for the automatic trans-axle, etc., will be erased. As a result, shifting may be rough. Shifting will become smoother after severalchanges in speed.
