ing is also displayed in the multi-information
display.
The warning light also illuminates after start-
ing the engine under the following condi-
tions:
 When the parking brake is still applied.
 When the brake fluid level is low.
 When the brake force distribution func-
tion is not operating correctly.
Before driving, be sure that the parking brake
is fully released and brake warning light is

N00520501830
This indicator is a part of the onboard diag-
nostic (OBD) system which monitors the
emissions, engine control system or continu-
ously variable transmission (CVT) control
system. If a problem is detected in one of
these systems, this indicator illuminates or
flashes. When the ignition switch is turned to
the “ON” position, 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 this
indicator comes on and stays on after refuel-
ing, stop the engine and check that the cap is
properly tightened. (Turn the cap clockwise
until you hear clicking sounds.)
If this indicator does not go off after several
seconds or lights up while driving, have the
system checked as soon as possible at an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a
repair facility of your choice.
Warning lights
Brake warning light
CAUTION
 If the brake warning light and the anti-lock
braking system warning light are illuminated
at the same time, the braking force distribu-
tion function will not operate, so the vehicle
may be destabilized during sudden braking
under the following conditions.
• When the brake warning light does not go
out even when the parking brake is
released.
• When the brake warning light stays on
while 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 of
your choice as soon as possible.
 The vehicle should be brought to a halt in the
following manner when brake performance
is deteriorated.
• Confirm that the vehicle slows down when
you press down on the brake pedal harder
than usual. In some cases, the brake pedal
may go all the way to the floor.
• Should the brakes fail, use engine braking
to reduce your speed and slowly apply the
parking brake.
Depress the brake pedal to illuminate the
stop lights to alert the vehicles behind you.
 Do not suddenly apply the parking brake
while driving. This may cause the rear
wheels to lock and cause an accident.
CAUTION Engine malfunction indicator
(“SERVICE ENGINE SOON”
or “Check engine light”)
