Information screen display list


When there is information to be announced, such as lamp reminders, a sound is emitted 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.
Refer to “Warning display list (when the ignition switch or the operation mode is OFF)” on page 5-28.
Refer to “Warning display list (when the ignition switch or the operation mode is ON)” on page 5-31.
Refer to “Other interrupt displays” on page 5-42.

NOTE
l 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.
• 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, we recommend you to consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point.

Overheating
This will normally occur as a result of some
mechanical failure. If your vehicle should
overheat, stop and check for a loose or bro-
ken water pump/alternator drive belt, a
blocked radiator air intake or a low coolant
level. If these items are satisfactory the over-
heating could be caused by a number of me-
chanical causes that would have to be
checked at a competent service centre.

CAUTION

“Engine overheating” section of “For emer-
