Information screen display list When information is to be announced, such as a lamp reminder, the buzzer sounds and the screen switches to the displays shown below. Refer to the appropriate page and take the necessary measures. When the cause of the warning display is eliminated, the warning display goes out automatically. NOTE

A warning may be displayed on the information screen and the buzzer may sound in the following rare cases. This is caused by the system picking up interference such as noise or strong electromagnetic waves, and is not a functional problem.
- An extremely strong electromagnetic wave is received from a source such as an illegal radio set, a spark from a wire, or a radar station.
- An abnormal voltage or a static electricity discharge is generated by the operation of installed electrical equipment (including after-market parts). If the warning display appears many times, consult an MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
