The side airbags (A) are contained in the driver and front passenger seatbacks. The side airbag is de
signed to inflate only on
the side of the vehicle that is impacted, even with no passenger in the front seat. A label is attached to the seatbacks in vehi- cles equipped with side airbags.
WA R N I N G Do not attach accessories to, or put them in front of, the windshield. They couldrestrict the airbag inflation, or strike and injure an occupant
, when the airbag
inflates. Do not attach addition
al keys or accesso-
ries (hard, pointed or
heavy objects) to the
ignition key. Such objects could prevent the driver’s knee ai
rbag from inflating
normally or could be propelled to causeserious injury if
the airbag inflates.
Do not attach accessories to the lower por- tion of the driver’s side instrument panel. Such objects could prevent the driver’s knee airbag from inflating normally orcould be propelled to cause serious injury if the airbag inflates.
WA R N I N G Do not attempt to remove, install, disas- semble or repair the SRS airbags. Do not place objects,
such as packages or
pets, between the airbags and the driveror the front passenger. Such objects can adversely affect ai
rbag performance, or
cause serious injury or death when theairbag deploys. Immediately after airbag inflation, some parts of the airbag syst
em will be hot. Do
not touch them. You could otherwise be burned. The airbag system is designed to work only once. After the
airbags deploy, they
will not work again. They must promptly be replaced and the
entire airbag system
must be inspected by an authorizedMitsubishi Motors dealer.

 When the active stability control (ASC) starts operating.Refer to “Active stab
ility control (ASC)”
on page 5-52.
Also, the set speed driving may be deacti- vated automatically when the engine speed rises and approaches the tachometer’s redzone (the red-colored part of the tachometer dial).
N00518900306
If the set speed driving is deactivated by thecondition described in “To deactivate” on page 5-57, you can resu
me the previously set
speed by pressing the RES + switch (C) while driving at a speed of about 25 mph (40 km/h) or higher. Under either of the
following conditions,
however, using the sw
itch does not allow you
to resume the previously set speed. In these situations, repeat the
speed setting procedure:
 The CRUISE CONTROL ON/OFF switch is pressed.  [Except for vehicles equipped with the F. A . S . T. - k e y ] Turn the ignition switch to the “OFF” or “ACC” position. [Vehicles equipped with the F.A.S.T.-key]
Put the operation mode in OFF or ACC.  Indicator is turned OFF.
N00530201696
The tire pressure moni
toring system (TPMS)
uses tire inflation pre
ssure sensors (A) on the
wheels to monitor the ti
re inflation pressures.
The system only indicates when a tire is sig- nificantly under-inflated.
WA R N I N G On vehicles equipped with continuously variable transmis
sion (CVT), although the
set speed driving will be deactivated whenshifting to the “N”
(NEUTRAL) position,
never move the select
or lever to the “N”
(NEUTRAL) position while driving.You would have no engine braking and could cause a serious accident.CAUTION When the set speed dr
iving is deactivated
automatically in any
situation other than
those listed above, there may be a systemmalfunction. Press the CRUISE CONTROL ON/OFF switch to turn off the
cruise control and have
your vehicle inspecte
d by an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer
or a repair facility
of your choice.

When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the ope
ration mode is put in
ON, 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 signi
ficantly 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 5-60 and take the nec-essary measures.
NOTE
 The TPMS is not a substitute for regularly checking tire inflation pressures.Be sure to check the tire inflation pressuresas 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
Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
Tire pressure monitoring sys- tem warning light
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 TPMS is not working properly. Have the system inspected by an authorized Mit-subishi Motors dealer. In such situations, a malfunctioning of the system may be preventing the monitoring ofthe tire pressure. Avoid sudden braking, sharp turning and high-speed driving. If a malfunction is detected in the TPMS, the tire pressure monitoring system warning light will blink for a
pproximately 1 minute
and then remain cont
inuously illuminated.
The warning light will 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 no problem. However, if the warning light does not gooff, or if it blinks again when the engine is restarted, have the
vehicle inspected by an
authorized Mitsubish
i Motors dealer.
In such situations, a malfunctioning of the system may be preventing the monitoring of the tire pressure. For safety reasons, whenthe warning light appears while driving, avoid sudden braking, sharp turning and high-speed driving.

Tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) 5-60 Features and controls

Each tire, including the spare, should be checked monthly when cold and inflated tothe inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufac
turer on the vehicle placard
or tire inflation pressu
re 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, yo
u should determine the
proper tire inflation pr
essure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when
one or more of your
tires is significant
ly 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 stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’sresponsibility to mainta
in correct tire pres-
sure, even if under-inf
lation has not
reached
the level to trigger illumination of the TPMSlow tire pressure telltale. Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator 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 c
ontinuously illuminated.
This sequence will c
ontinue upon subsequent
vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunctionexists. When the malfunction indicator is illumi- nated, the system may not
be able to detect or
signal low tire pr
essure 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.

1. If the tire pressure monitoring systemwarning light illum
inates, avoid hard
braking, sharp steering maneuvers and high speeds. You should stop and adjust the tires to the proper inflation pressure assoon as possible. Adjust the spare tire at the same time. Refer to “Tires” on page 9-12.
If the warning light illuminates while driving
NOTE
 When inspecting or adjusting the tire pres- sure, do not apply excessive force to the valve stem to
avoid breakage.
 After inspecting or adjusting the tire pres- sure, always reinstall the valve cap on thevalve stem. Without the valve cap, di
rt or moisture could
get into the valve, resulting in damage to thetire inflation pressure sensor.  Do not use metal valve caps, which may cause a metal reaction,
resulting in corrosion
and damage of the tire
inflation pressure sen-
sors.  Once adjustments have
been made, the warn-
ing light will go off after a few minutes ofdriving.

2. If the tire pressure monitoring system warning light remain
s illuminated after
you have been drivi
ng for approximately
20 minutes after you adjust the tire infla- tion pressure, one or more of the tires mayhave a puncture. Inspect the tire and if it has a puncture, have it repaired by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer assoon as possible.
The TPMS may not work normally in the fol- lowing circumstances:  A wireless facility
or device using the
same frequency is near the vehicle. Snow or ice is stuck inside the fenders and/or on the wheels.  The tire inflation pressure sensor’s battery is dead.  Wheels other than Mitsubishi Motors Genuine wheels are being used. Wheels that are not fitted with tire infla- tion pressure sensors are being used.  Wheels whose ID codes are not memo- rized by the vehicle are used.  Compact spare tire is fitted on a road wheel. A window tint that af
fects the radio wave
signals is installed.
N00532901235
If new wheels with new tire inflation pressure sensors are installed,
their ID codes must be
programmed into the TPMS. Have tire and wheel replacement performed by an autho-rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer to avoid the risk of damaging the tire inflation pressure sensors. If the wheel replacement is not doneby an authorized Mits
ubishi Motors dealer, it
is not covered by your warranty.
WA R N I N G If the warning light illuminates while you are driving, avoid ha
rd braking, sharp
steering maneuvers and high speeds. Driving with an under-inflated tire adversely affe
cts vehicle performance and
can result in an accident.CAUTION The warning light may
not illuminate imme-
diately in the event of
a tire blowout or rapid
leak.NOTE
 To avoid the risk of da
mage to the tire infla-
tion pressure sensors, have any puncturedtire repaired by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. If the tir
e repair is not done by
an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer,damage to the tire infl
ation pressure sensor is
not covered by your warranty.
 Do not use an aerosol puncture-repair spray on any tire.Such a spray could dama
ge the tire inflation
pressure sensors. Have any puncture repa
ired by an authorized
Mitsubishi Moto
rs dealer.
NOTE
NOTE
Tire inflation pressures vary with the ambi- ent temperature. If the vehicle is subjected tolarge variations in ambient temperature, thetire inflation pressures may be under-inflated (causing the warning light come on) when the ambient temperature is relatively low. Ifthe warning light comes on, adjust the tire inflation pressure.
Whenever the tires and wheels are replaced with new ones
CAUTION The use of non-genuine wheels will prevent the proper fit of the tire inflation pressure sensors, resulting air
leakage or damage of
the sensors.

Check all the tires for heavy tread wear or uneven wear patterns.
Look for stones, nails,
glass, or other objects
stuck in the tread. Look
for any tread cuts or sidewall cracks. Check the wheel nuts for tightness, and the tires (including spare tire) for proper pressure.Replace your tires before they are heavily worn out. As your vehicle is equi
pped with a tire pres-
sure monitoring system, there is a risk of damage to the tire inflation pressure sensorswhen the tire is replaced on the rim. Tire replacement should, onl
y be performed by an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. Have someone watch while you turn all the exterior lights on and off. Also check the turnsignal indicators and hi
gh-beam indicators on
the instrument panel. Check the ground under the vehicle after parking overnight, for
fuel, water, oil, or
other leaks. Make sure
all the fluid levels are
correct. Also, if you
can smell fuel, you need
to find out why imme
diately and have it
fixed.

Even this vehicle’s safety equipment, andyour safest driving, cannot guarantee that youcan avoid an accident or injury. However, if you give extra attention to the following areas, you can better protect yourself and your passengers:  Drive defensively. Be aware of traffic, road and weather c
onditions. Leave plenty
of stopping distance
between your vehicle
and the vehicle ahead.  Before changing lanes, check your mir- rors, your blind spots, and use your turn- signal light.  While driving, watch the behavior of other drivers, bicycl
ists, and pedestrians.
 Always obey applicab
le laws and regula-
tions. Be a polite and alert driver. Alwaysleave room for unexpected events, such as sudden braking.  If you plan to drive in another country, obey their vehicle re
gistration laws and
make sure you will be able to get the right fuel.
N00629400474
 Check the battery. At the same time, check the terminals and wiring. During extremely cold weather, the battery willnot be as strong. Al
so, the battery power
level may drop because more power is used for cold starting and driving.Before driving the vehicle, check to see if the engine runs at the proper speed and if the headlights are as bright as normally. Charge or replace the battery if necessary. During extreme cold weather, it is possi-ble that a very low battery could freeze.  Warm the engine sufficiently. After start- ing the engine, allow a short warm-uptime to distribute oil to all cylinders. Then drive your vehicle slowly.  Stay at low speeds at first so that the man- ual transaxle oil or the automatic transaxle fluid has time to spread to all the lubrica- tion points.
