If the driver’s door is opened when the key is in the “LOCK” or “ACC” position or removed from the ignition switch with the lamp switch in the “ ” or “ ” position, a buzzer will sound to remind the driver to turn off the lamps.

Turn off the lamp switch, and the buzzer will stop.

[Vehicles with Daytime Running Lamp]

When the ignition key is in the “ON” position and the lamp switch is set to the “tail lamps, etc., will illuminate.” position, the low beam of the headlamps, tail lamps, etc., will illuminate.

NOTE

(1) Do not leave the headlamps and other lamps on for too long time while the engine is stationary. A run–down battery could result.
(2) When it rains, or when the vehicle has been washed, the inside of the lens sometimes becomes foggy. This is the same phenomenon as when window glass mists up on a humid day, and 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, please go to an authorized MITSUBISHI dealer for a check.

The high beams flash when the lever is pulled slightly to (2), and will go off when it is released.

When the high beam is on, the high beam indication lamp in the instrument cluster will also illuminate.

NOTE

The high beams can also flash when the lamp switch is OFF.
