For short waiting periods, such as at traffic
signals the vehicle can be left in gear and held
stationary with the service brake.
For longer waiting periods with the engine
running, place the selector lever in the “N”
(NEUTRAL) position and apply the parking
brake, while holding the vehicle stationary
with the service brake.
• Stop your vehicle in a safe place, put the
selector lever in the “P” (PARK) position,
and open the bonnet with the engine run-
ning to allow the engine to cool down.
After a while, confirm that the warning
display is no longer showing. It is safe to
continue driving if the display is no longer
showing. If the warning display remains or
appears frequently, have your vehicle
inspected by an authorised MITSUBISHI
MOTORS dealer.
When warning display is showing
It may be that there is something unusual
happening in the A/T, causing a safety
device to activate. Have your vehicle
inspected by an authorised MITSUBISHI
MOTORS dealer.
Operation of the A/T
CAUTION

Before selecting a gear with the engine run-
ning and the vehicle stationary, fully depress
the brake pedal to prevent the vehicle from
creeping.
The vehicle will begin to move as soon as the
gear is engaged, especially when the engine
speed is high, at fast idle or with the air con-
ditioner operating, the brakes should only be
released when you are ready to drive away.
CAUTION
 Depress the brake pedal with the right foot at
all times.
Using the left foot could cause driver move-
ment delay in case of an emergency.

To prevent sudden acceleration, never race
the engine when shifting from the “P”
(PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL) position.
 Operating the accelerator pedal while the
other foot is resting on the brake pedal will
affect braking efficiency and may cause pre-
mature wear of brake pads.

Use the selector lever in the correct shift
position in accordance with driving condi-
tions.
Never coast downhill backward with the
selector lever in the {“D” (DRIVE) or sports
mode} or coast forward with the selector
lever in the “R” (REVERSE) position.
The engine may stop and the unexpected
increase in brake pedal effort and steering
wheel weight could lead to an accident.
 Do not race the engine with brake pedal
pressed when the vehicle is stationary.
This can damage the A/T.
Also, when you depress the accelerator pedal
while holding down the brake pedal with the
selector lever in the “P” (PARK), “N” (NEU-
TRAL) or “D” (DRIVE) position, the engine
revolutions may not rise as high as when per-
forming the same operation with the selector
lever in the “N” (NEUTRAL) position.
CAUTION
Passing acceleration
NOTE

In sports mode, downshifts do not take place
when the accelerator is depressed all the way
to the floor.
Waiting
CAUTION
 Never hold the vehicle stationary on a hill
using the accelerator pedal (without using
the brake pedal). Always apply the parking
brake and/or service brakes.
