Diesel preheat indication lamp
E00502301390
This indicates the glow plug
preheat condition.
[Except for vehicles equip-
ped with keyless operation
system]
When the ignition switch is
turned to the “ON” position, the lamp illumi-

plug starts automatically. As the glow plug
becomes hot, the lamp goes out and the en-
gine starts.
CAUTION
l
If the diesel preheat indication lamp comes
on after the engine is started, the engine
speed may not rise above the idling speed
because of fuel freezing. In this case, keep
the engine idling for about 10 minutes, then
turn off the ignition switch or put in OFF the
operation mode, and immediately turn it on
or put in ON again to confirm that the diesel
preheat indication lamp is off.
NOTE
l
If the engine is cold, the diesel preheat indi-
cation lamp is on for a longer time.
l
[Except for vehicles equipped with keyless
operation system]
When the engine has not been started within
about 5 seconds after the diesel preheat indi-
cation lamp went out, return the ignition
switch to the “LOCK” position. Then, turn
the ignition switch to the “ON” position to
preheat the engine again.

the fuel filter; if this happens, take action as
follows.
Remove the water from the fuel filter. Refer
to “Removal of water from the fuel filter” on
page 8-11.
When the lamp goes out, you can resume
driving. If it either does not go out or comes

This lamp illuminates when
the ignition switch is turned
to the “ON” position or the
operation mode is put in ON,
and goes off after a few sec-
onds.
Always make sure that the lamp goes off be-
fore driving.
With the ignition switch or the operation

nates under the following conditions:
l
When the parking brake lever has been
engaged.
l
When the brake fluid level in the reser-
voir falls to a low level.
l
When the brake force distribution func-
tion is not operating correctly.
With the ignition switch or the operation
mode in ON, a buzzer sounds under the fol-
lowing condition:
l
The vehicle speed exceeds 8 km/h
(5 mph) with the parking brake applied.
CAUTION
l
In the situations listed below, brake perform-
ance may be compromised or the vehicle
may become unstable if brakes are applied
suddenly; consequently, avoid driving at
high speeds or applying the brakes suddenly.
Furthermore, the vehicle should be brought
to a stop in a safe location and to have it
checked.
•
The brake warning lamp does not illumi-
nate when the parking brake is applied or
does not turn off when the parking brake
is released.
•
The ABS warning lamp and brake warn-
ing lamp illuminate at the same time
For details, refer to “ABS warning lamp”
on page 6-57.
•
The brake warning lamp remains illumi-
nated during driving.
l
The vehicle should be brought to a halt in
the following manner when brake perform-
ance has deteriorated.
•
Depress the brake pedal harder than usual.
Even if the brake pedal moves down to
the very end of its possible stroke, keep it
pressed down hard.
•
Should the brakes fail, use engine braking
to reduce your speed and pull the parking
brake lever.
Depress the brake pedal to operate the
stop lamp to alert the vehicles behind you.
Check engine warning lamp
E00502603137
This lamp is a part of an on-
board diagnostic system
which monitors the emis-
sions, engine control system
or A/T control system.
If a problem is detected in
one of these systems, this lamp illuminates or
flashes.
Although your vehicle will usually be driva-
ble and not need towing, we recommend you
to have the system checked as soon as possi-
ble.
This lamp will also illuminate when the igni-
tion switch is turned “ON” or the operation
mode is put in ON, and goes off after the en-
gine has started. If it does not go off after the
engine has started, we recommend you to
have the vehicle checked.
CAUTION
l
Prolonged driving with this lamp on may
cause further damage to the emission control
system. It could also affect fuel economy
and drivability.
l
If the lamp does not illuminate when the ig-
nition switch is turned to the “ON” position
or the operation mode is put in ON, we rec-
ommend you to have the system checked.

CAUTION
l
If the lamp illuminates while the engine is
running, avoid driving at high speeds and
have
the
system
inspected
by
a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point as soon as possible.
Accelerator pedal and brake pedal response
may be negatively influenced under these
conditions.
NOTE
l
The engine electronic control module ac-
commodating the onboard diagnostic system
has various fault data (especially about the
exhaust emission) stored.
This data will be erased if a battery cable is
disconnected which will make a rapid diag-
nosis difficult. Do not disconnect a battery
cable when the check engine warning lamp is
ON.
Charge warning lamp
E00502702304
This lamp illuminates when
the ignition switch is turned
to the “ON” position or the
operation mode is put in ON,
and goes off after the engine
has started.
CAUTION
l
If it illuminates while the engine is running,
there is a problem in the charging system.
Immediately park your vehicle in a safe
place and we recommend you to have it
checked.
Oil pressure warning lamp
E00502801816
This lamp illuminates when
the ignition switch is turned
to the “ON” position or the
operation mode is put in ON,
and the lamp goes off after
the engine has started. If it il-
luminates while the engine is running, the oil
pressure is too low.
If the warning lamp illuminates while the en-
gine is running, turn the engine off and have
it inspected.
CAUTION
l
If this lamp illuminates when the engine oil
level is not low, have it inspected.
l
This warning lamp does not indicate the
amount of oil in the crankcase. This must be
determined by checking the oil level on the
dipstick, while the engine is switched off.
l
If you continue driving with low engine oil
level or with this warning lamp illuminated,
engine seizure may occur.
NOTE
l
The oil pressure warning lamp should not be
treated as an indication of the engine’s oil
level. The oil level must be checked using
the dipstick.
Door ajar warning lamp
E00503302020
This lamp illuminates when
a door is either open or not
completely closed.
If the vehicle speed reaches
approximately
8
km/h
(5 mph) with a door open or
incompletely closed, a buzzer sounds 4 times
as a warning.
CAUTION
l
Before moving your vehicle, check that the
warning lamp is OFF.

NOTE
l
Do not leave the lamps on for a long time
while the engine is stationary (not running).
A run-down battery could result.
l
When it rains, or when the vehicle has been
washed, the inside of the lens sometimes be-
comes foggy, but this does not indicate a
functional problem.
When the lamp is switched on, the heat will
remove the fog. However, if water gathers
inside the lamp, we recommend you to have
it checked.
l
The bulbs of the high intensity discharge
headlamps (if so equipped) have the follow-
ing characteristics.
•
While the headlamps are used, the light
will gradually become a bluish-white col-
our.
•
The life time of a bulb becomes shorter as
it is repeatedly turned on and off. When
the bulb approaches the end of its life
time, the brightness may decrease, the
bulb may flicker, and the light may be-
come a reddish colour. If this occurs, have
the vehicle inspected by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
