Your vehicle has been designed primarily for
use on pavement.
But its unique 4 -wheel drive system allows
you to occasionally travel on unpaved roads,
to campgrounds, picnic sites, and similar
locations.
Not only does this ensure better handling on
dry, paved roads but also permits better trac-
tion when driving on slippery, wet or snow-
covered roads and when moving out of mud.
But it is not suitable for heavy off road use or
towing in rough conditions.
It is particularly important to note that 4-
wheel drive may not give sufficient hill
climbing ability and engine braking on steep
slopes. You should try to avoid driving on
steep slopes.
Also, you must exercise caution when driving
on sand and mud and when driving through
water because sufficient traction may not be
available in certain circumstances.
Please avoid driving the vehicle through areas
where the tires may get stuck in deep sand or
mud.
CAUTION
If the selected drive mode indicator is blink-
ing, the vehicle switches automatically to
front-wheel drive in order to protect the
drive-system components, and drive mode
selection is no longer possible with the drive
mode-selector.
The warning display is also displayed in the
information screen in the multi-information
display.
Reduce speed, and if the indicator goes out
after driving a while, resume driving as
before. If the indicator continues blinking for
more than about 5 minutes, have the vehicle
inspected at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer or a repair facility of your choice as
soon as possible.
Type 1
Type 2
CAUTION
The warning display on the information
screen in the multi-information display, a
problem has occurred with the electronically
controlled 4WD system and the safety device
has activated. Have an inspection made by
an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a
repair facility of your choice as soon as pos-
sible.
Type 1
Type 2
CAUTION
Always use tires of the same size, type, and
brand that have no wear differences. Using
tires that differ in size, type, brand, or wear
amount may activate the protection of the
drive-system components, causing the drive
mode in “4WD AUTO” mode to lock or the
“4WD” and “LOCK” indicators to blink
alternately.
