N00514200297
“P” PARK
This position locks the transaxle to prevent the vehicle from
moving. The engine can be started from the “P” (PARK) posi-
tion.
“R” REVERSE
Move the lever to this position only after the vehicle has come
to a complete stop.
“N” NEUTRAL
At this position, the transaxle is disengaged. It is the same as
the neutral position on a manual transaxle and should be used
when the vehicle is not moving for an extended length of time
during driving, such as in a traffic jam.
CAUTION
!
● If a malfunction occurs in the automatic transaxle
while driving, the warning display or the
warning display will appear on the information
screen in the multi-information display.
In this case, immediately park your vehicle in a safe
place and follow these procedures:
When warning display is showing
The automatic transaxle fluid is overheating. Stop
your vehicle in a safe place, put the selector lever in
the “P” position, and open the engine hood with the
engine running to allow the engine to cool down.
After a while, confirm that the warning display is
no longer showing. It is safe to continue driving if
the display is no longer showing. If the warning dis-
play remains or flashes frequently, have your vehicle
inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer or a repair facility of your choice.
When warning display is showing
It may be that there is something unusual happening
in the automatic transaxle, causing a safety device to
activate. Have your vehicle inspected by an autho-
rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of
your choice as soon as possible.
CAUTION
!
● Never shift into the “P” (PARK) or “R”
(REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in motion.
If the lever is shifted into the “P” (PARK) or “R”
(REVERSE) position while the vehicle is in motion,
the transaxle may be damaged.
WARNING
!
● Never move the selector lever to the “N” (NEU-
TRAL) position while driving since you could acci-
dentally slip it into the “P” (PARK) or “R”
(REVERSE) position, damaging the transaxle.
