When the engine is started, the light should
go off a few seconds later. A warning 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 system circuit is not
working properly.
Before driving, be sure that the parking brake
is fully released and brake warning light is
off.
N00520500787
This indicator is a part of the onboard diag-
nostic (OBD) system which monitors the
emissions, engine control system or Twin
Clutch SST control system. If a problem is
detected in one of these systems, this indica-
tor 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
NOTE
 Under conditions such as sporty driving, the
brake fluid in the tank may move and the
warning light may come on temporarily.
If the warning light goes out after a while,
there is not a problem with the brake system
and the vehicle can be driven normally.
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.
