 The “A” indicator on the selector lever posi-
tion display will only blink if there is a prob-
lem with the A/T position switch.
If is not seen during normal driving.
CAUTION
 If malfunction occurs in the A/T while driv-
ing, the warning display or the warn-
ing display appears on the information
screen in the multi information display.
In this case, immediately park your vehicle
in a safe place and follow these procedures:
When warning display is showing
The A/T fluid is overheating. The engine
control may activate to lower the A/T fluid
temperature, causing the engine revolutions
and vehicle speed to decrease, or the gear
shift timing may change by activating the
A/T control. In this case, take one of the fol-
lowing procedures.
• Slow down your vehicle.
• 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.
NOTE
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.

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.
CAUTION
 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.
