may be destabilized
during sudden braking
under the following conditions.• When the brake warn
ing light does not go
out even when the parking brake isreleased.• When the brake warning light stays onwhile driving.• If the above occurs,
avoid sudden braking
and high-speed driving. Park the vehicle in a safe place, and contact an authorized Mit- subishi Motors dealer or a repair facility ofyour choice as soon as possible.
 The vehicle should be bro
ught to a halt in the
following manner when
brake performance
is deteriorated.• Confirm that the vehicle slows down whenyou press down on the brake pedal harder than usual. In some cases, the brake pedalmay go all the way to the floor.
• Should the brakes fail, use engine brakingto reduce your speed and observe the fol-lowings.[Vehicles with the parking brake of the lever type] Carefully pull the parking brake lever.[Vehicles with the Electric parking brake] Keep pulling the Electric parking brake switch.

This indicator is a part
of the onboard diag-
nostic (OBD) system which monitors the emissions, engine control system or auto- matic transaxle cont
rol system/continuously
variable transmission
(CVT) control system.
If a problem is detected in one of these sys- tems, this indicator illuminates or flashes.When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the operation mode is put in ON, this indicator
normally comes on and
goes off after the engine has started.
This indicator will come on if the fuel tank filler cap is not properly tightened. If thisindicator comes on and stays on after refuel- ing, stop the engine and check that the cap is properly tightened. (Turn the cap clockwiseuntil you hear clicking sounds.) If this indicator does not go off after several seconds or lights up whil
e driving, have the
system checked as s
oon as possible at an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.

CAUTION When the warning light remains on or does not come on, there is the possibility that theparking brake cannot be operated orreleased. Immediately contact the nearest authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. When the warning light comes on during driving,immediately stop the vehi
cle in a safe place,
and contact an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. If you inevitably have to park, parkthe vehicle on level and stable ground, shift the selector lever in
“P” (PARK) position
and place chocks
or blocks.
Engine malfunction indicator (“SERVICE ENGINE SOON” or “Check engine light”)
CAUTION Driving for a long time with the engine mal- function indicator on
may cause more dam-
age to the emission control system. This could also affect fuel economy and drivabil-ity. If this indicator does not come on when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” posi- tion or the operation mode
is put in ON, have
the system checked at
an authorized Mitsubi-
shi Motors dealer or a
repair facility of your
choice.
 If the engine malfunction indicator comes on while the engine is running, avoid driving athigh speeds.During vehicle
operation with the indicator
on, the vehicle may not
accelerate when you
depress the accelerator pedal.When the vehicle is stat
ionary with the indi-
cator on, you must depr
ess the brake pedal
more firmly than usual since the engineidling speed is higher th
an usual and a vehi-
cle with an automatic transaxle or CVT has a stronger tendency to creep forward.NOTE
 Do not disconnect the battery cable when the engine malfunction i
ndicator (“SERVICE
ENGINE SOON” or “Che
ck engine light”) is
on. The engine electronic control module storescritical OBD information (especially exhaust emission data), which may be lost if the bat- tery cable is disconnected while the enginemalfunction indicator is
on. This will make it
difficult to diagnose the cause of future prob- lems.

• Only right or left exte
rior light of a vehicle
in front or oncoming
vehicle is illuminat-
ing. • A vehicle in front or
oncoming vehicle is a
motorcycle. • Road conditions (gradient, bends and road surface). • The number of occupants and luggage load.  The automatic high beam system recognises environmental conditi
ons by sensing a light
source ahead of your vehicle. Therefore, youmay feel like someth
ing is not quite right
when the headlight beams are switched auto- matically.  The system may not de
tect a light vehicle
such as a bicycle.  The system may not detect an ambient brightness precisely. Th
is causes the traffic
to be dazzled by high beam or the low beam to be maintained. In such cases, you should switch the headli
ght beams manually.
• In bad weather (heavy
rain, fog, snow or
sandstorm). • The windshield is dirty or fogged up. • The windshield is cracked or broken. • The sensor is deformed or dirty.• A light, which is similar to the headlights or tail lights, is shining around your vehicle. • A vehicle in front
or oncoming vehicle is
driven without lights,
the exterior lights are
dirty or discoloured, or the direction of the headlight beams is ad
justed improperly.
NOTE
• It becomes dark and bright suddenly and continuously around your vehicle. • Your vehicle is driv
en on uneven surfaces.
• Your vehicle is driven on a winding road.• A reflective object su
ch as a noticeboard or
a mirror reflects a light ahead of your vehi-cle. • When lights of the vehi

• Your vehicle's headligh
t is broken or dirty.
• Your vehicle is inclined due to a flat tire or towing. • The warning display appears. (Refer to “System problem warning” on page 5-205.)
 Observe the precautions below to maintain good usage conditions: • Do not attempt to di
sassemble the sensor.
• Do not affix a sticker or label on the wind- shield near the sensor. • Avoid overload.• Do not modify your vehicle. • When the windshield is replaced, use the Mitsubishi Motors
