5-88 Features and controls
- NOTE
If the indicator flashes faster than usual or if the indicator stays on without flashing, check for a malfunctioning turn signal light bulb or turn signal connection.
High Beam Indicator
A blue light comes on when the headlights are on high beam.
Front fog light indicator (if so equipped)
This indicator comes on while the front fog lights are on.
Position indicator (if so equipped)
This indicator light illuminates while the parking lights are on.
Low coolant temperature indicator green
This indicator comes on in green while the coolant temperature is low.
NOTE
When the indicator goes out, this should be used as a rough indication of when the heating starts working.
ECO indicator
This indicator comes on while fuel-efficient driving is achieved.
Warning lights
Brake warning light and buzzer
This light comes on when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position (engine off) or the operation mode is put in ON.
When the engine is started, the light should go off a few seconds later.
The warning light also illuminates after start ink the engine under the following Condi ions.
- When the parking brake is still applied.
- When the brake fluid level is low.
- When the brake system circuit is not working properly.
When the vehicle is moving at more than 5 mph (8 km/h) and the parking brake applied, a buzzer will sound to inform the driver that the parking brake is not properly release.
Before driving, be sure that the parking brake is fully released and the brake warning light is off.
CAUTION
- If the brake warning light and the Anti-lock braking system warning light are illuminated at the same time, the braking force distribution function will not operate, 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 Mitsubishi 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 and to alert the vehicles behind you.
Engine malfunction indicator (“SERVICE ENGINE SOON” or “Check engine light”)
This indicator is a part of the onboard diagnostic (OBD) system which monitors the emissions, engine control system or continuously 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 or the operation mode is put in ON, 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-ink, 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 immediately at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.
CAUTION
- Driving for a long time with the engine mal-function indicator on may cause more dam-age to the emission control system. This could also affect fuel economy and drivability.
- If this indicator does not come on when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the operation mode is put in ON, have the system checked at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.
- If the engine malfunction indicator comes on while the engine is running, avoid driving at high speeds.
During vehicle operation with the indicator on, the vehicle may not accelerate when you depress the accelerator pedal.
When the vehicle is stationary with the indicator on, you must depress the brake pedal more firmly than usual since the engine idling speed is higher than usual and a vehicle with a CVT has a stronger tendency to creep forward.
NOTE
- Do not disconnect the battery cable when the engine malfunction indicator (“SERVICE ENGINE SOON” or “Check engine light”) is on.
The engine electronic control module stores critical OBD information (especially exhaust emission data), which may be lost if the battery cable is disconnected while the engine malfunction indicator is on. This will make it difficult to diagnose the cause of future pro elms.
Charging system warning light
This light comes on in the event of a malefic ion in the charging system or when the ignite ion switch is turned to the “ON” position (engine off) or the operation mode is put in ON. When the engine is started, the light should go out. Check to make sure that the light has gone out before driving.
- If the warning light stays on while the engine is running, park your vehicle in a safe place immediately and contact an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice to have the system checked.
Oil pressure warning light
This light comes on when the engine oil pressure is below normal. If the light stays on while driving, stop the engine as soon as possible. Do not run the engine until the cause of the low oil pressure is corrected.
- If this light comes on when the engine oil level is not low, have your vehicle checked at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.
- This warning light does not show the amount of oil in the crankcase. This can only be determined by checking the oil level with the dipstick with the engine turned off.
High Coolant temperature Warning Light Red
This light comes on in red if the coolant temperature becomes excessively high.
- If the light comes on during vehicle operation, it indicates that the engine is possibly overheating. Continued driving could make the engine fail. Immediately stop the vehicle in a safe place and take appropriate action.(Refer to “Engine overheating”.
NOTE
The high coolant temperature warning light may illuminate when the vehicle has been driven at high speeds or on hilly roads. This illuminating does not necessarily indicate a problem. It should stop if you keep the engine running for a while or continue driving the vehicle.
Door-ajar Warning Light and Buzzer
This light comes on when any door or the lift-gate is open or not completely closed. When the vehicle is moving at more than 5 mph (8 km/h) and any door or the liftgate is open or ajar, a tone will sound 4 times to inform the driver that any door or the liftgate is not properly shut.
