For short waiting periods, such as at traffic lights, the vehicle can be
left in gear and held
stationary with the service brake.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 or
Sports mode posi-
tion. To park the vehicle, first bring it to a com- plete stop, firmly apply the parking brake,
and then move the sele
ctor lever to the “P”
(PARK) position. If the transaxle does not change gears while driving, or your vehicle does not pick up enough speed when starting on an uphillslope, it may be that there is something unusual happening in the transaxle, causing a safety device to activa
te. Have your vehicle
checked at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choiceimmediately.

The CVT will automati
cally and continuously
change its gear ratio depending on road anddriving conditions. This helps achieve smooth driving and excellent fuel efficiency. If your vehicle is equipped with the spor- tronic steering wheel paddle shifter, you can manually shift up and shift down the trans-mission. Refer to “Sports mode” on page 5-79. The transmission prevents unnecessary upshifts even when the accelerator pedal is released and ensures smooth driving. According to the conditions, the transmission will automatically shift to a lower gear ratioto achieve stronger engine braking. This may help reduce your need to use the service brake.
Waiting
CAUTION To avoid transaxle over
heating, never try to
keep your vehicle stat
ionary 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).

As an additional safe
ty precaution, models
equipped with a continuously variable trans- mission have a shift-lock device that holdsthe selector lever in the “P” (PARK) position. To move the selector lever from the “P” (PARK) position to another position, followthe steps below. 1. Press and hold the brake pedal down. 2. Move the selector lever to the desiredposition.
The CVT selects an optimum ratio automati- cally when the selector lever is in the “D” (DRIVE) position, depe
nding on the speed of
the vehicle and the positi
on of the accelerator
pedal.Selector lever operation
NOTE
The selector lever cannot
be moved from “P”

tion mode is put in
OFF or ACC, or if the brake pedal is notpressed and held down.
Set the selector lever in the gate to operate while the brake pedal is depressed.
Except for vehicles equipped with sportronic steering wheel paddle shifter For vehicles equipped with sportronic steering wheel paddle shifter
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 selector posi- tion from the “N” (NEUTRAL) position. When beginning to drive, do not shift theselector lever from
the “N” (NEUTRAL)
position while pressing the accelerator pedal. 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 be
ing moved from the
“P” (PARK) position. For a shift indicated by in the illustra- tion, depress the brake pedal before moving the selector lever. If you attempt to move theselector lever before depressing the brake pedal, the selector le
ver may be immovable.

If the ambient temperature is low, the selector lever position display on the multi informa-tion display may blink when the selector lever is placed in the “D” (DRIVE), “Ds” (DOWNSHIFT & SPORTY DRIVING), “L”(LOW) or “R” (REVER
SE) position immedi-
ately after the engine has been started. This indicates that the tran
smission requires warm-
ing up. While the display is blinking, the vehicle will not move,
because the transmis-
sion keeps disengaging until the warm up is completed even if the selector lever is placed in the “D”, “Ds”, “L” or “R” position. When the selector lever position display is blinking, perform th
e following procedure:
1. Depress the brake pedal with your right foot and place the se
lector lever in the
“N” (NEUTRAL) position for severalseconds. 2. Keep depressing the brake pedal and then place the selector lever in the “D”(DRIVE), “Ds” (DOWNSHIFT & SPORTY DRIVING), “L” (LOW) or “R” (REVERSE) position. If the selector leverposition display stops
blinking, the warm
up is completed and the transmission will function normally.3. If the display is still
blinking, repeat steps
1 and 2 above.

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

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

way driving. The transmission will automati- cally and continuously ch
ange its gear ratio

While the vehicle is stopped or being drivenwith the selector lever in the “D” (DRIVE),sports mode can be se
lected by pulling one of
the sportronic steering wheel paddle shifter towards you.In sports mode, rapid
shifting is possible sim-
ply by operating the sportronic steering wheel paddle shifter.
Unlike the manual transaxle, sports mode allows shifting with the accelerator pedaldepressed. + (SHIFT UP) Transmission shifts
up once by each opera-
tion. − (SHIFT DOWN) Transmission shifts down once by each oper- ation. To return to “D” (DRIVE) operation, pull the sportronic steering wheel paddle shifter on the + (SHIFT UP) side for longer than 2 sec- onds.
To prevent rolling,
always keep your foot
on the brake pedal when the vehicle is in“N” (NEUTRAL) position, or when shift-ing into or out of “N” (NEUTRAL) posi- tion.
