6 General information
Installation of accessories
E00200300774
We recommend you to consult your MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point. ●
The installation of accessories
, optional parts, should only
be carried out within the limits prescribed by law in your country, and in accordance wi
th the guidelines fitting
instructions and warnings contained within the documentsaccompanying the parts or accessories.
●
Improper installation of el
ectrical components may cause
an electrical fire if incorrectly
fitted. Please refer to Modi-
fication/alteration to the electri
cal or fuel systems section
within this owner’s manual.
●
Using a cellular phone or radio set inside the vehicle with- out an external antenna may
cause electrical system inter-
ference, which could lead to
unsafe vehicle operation.
●
Tyres and wheels which do not meet specifications must not be used. Refer to the “Specifications
” section for information
regarding wheel and tyre sizes.
●
When fitting accessories, ensure that maximum gross vehicle weight and maximum axle weight are not exceeded.
Important points!Due to large number of accessory
and replacement parts of dif-
ferent manufactures available in the market, it is not possible,not only for MITSUBISHI MOTORS, but also for a MIT- SUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point, to check
whether the attachment or installa
tion of such parts affects the
overall safety of your MITSUBISHI-vehicle. Even when such parts are offici
ally authorized, for example by
a “general operators permit”
(an appraisal for the part) or
through the execution of the part
in an officially approved man-
ner of construction, or when a single operation permit follow- ing the attachment or installation of such parts, it cannot be deduced from that alone, that the driving safety of your vehiclehas not been affected. Consider also that there basically
exists no liability on the part
of the appraiser or the official.
Only in the case of parts (MIT-
SUBISHI MOTORS original repl
acement or exchange parts as
well as MITSUBISHI MOTORS
genuine accessories) that are
recommended and released by a MITSUBISHI MOTORSAuthorized Service Point and that
are attached or installed by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author
ized Service Point can you
assume, that optimal safety ha
s been provided. The same also
pertains to modifications of
MITSUBISHI vehicle with respect
to the production specifications. For your own safety, in such cases, you should only undert
ake modifications according to
the recommendations of a MI
TSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point.

When the A/T makes no speed change
E00604800348
If the transmission does not ch
ange speeds while driving, or
your vehicle does not pick up enough speed when starting on an uphill slope, it may be that there is something unusual hap-pening in the transmission, causi
ng a safety device to activate.
We recommend you to have your vehicle checked as soon as possible.1. If your vehicle has difficulty moving uphill, shift the
selector lever into 2nd gear of the “Sports mode”. This method might not work depending on the transmis-sion malfunction.
2. Once the vehicle is moving on a level road, move the
selector lever back to “D” (DRIVE).
Super select 4WD II (SS4 II)
E00605700067
Shifting to rear-wheel drive or
4-wheel drive can be made by
operating the transfer shift lever
(A). Shift the transfer shift
lever to an appropriate position according to the road surfaceconditions. In addition, the 2WD/4WD operation indication lamp indicates the transfer shif
t lever shifting state. Refer to
“2WD/4WD operation indicat
ion lamp” on page 4-38.

4-wheel drive operation
E00606600627
By selecting 4-wheel drive, both
axles of the vehicle are rigidly
connected with each other. Th
is improves the traction charac-
teristics. When turning sharp
corners or moving forward and
backward repeatedly, however, the drive line is stressed, which is felt as a braking effect. A 4-wheel drive vehicle can acceler- ate more quickly and smoothly.However, note that the braking
distance is not shorter than that
of a rear-wheel drive vehicle. When using 4-wheel drive on rough roads (snow, mud, sand,etc.), it is important to
operate the vehicle correctly.
NOTE●
The driving posture should be more upright and closer to the wheel than usual; adjust the seat to a good position foreasy steering and pedal operatio
n. Be sure to wear the seat
belt.
●
After driving on rough roads, check each part of the vehi- cle and wash it thoroughly with water. Refer to the “Vehi- cle care” section and “Inspection and maintenance following rough road operation” on page 4-53.
WARNING
!●
If the rear differential lock
is used by mistake except
when making an emergency
escape on snow or fro-
zen road: It becomes difficult to make a steady turn.
●
In the case where the condit
ion of the road is differ-
ent for the right tyre to drive from the left tyre (suchas one tyre on a paved road and the other on ice), direction of the vehicle
may change abruptly when
engine braking or accelerating.Do not use the rear diff
erential lock except when
making an emergency escape on a snow or frozen road, but drive with 4WD.

Climbing sharp gradesSet the transfer shift lever to
the “4LLc” position to maximize
the engine torque.NOTE●
Choose as smooth a slope as possible with few stones or other obstacles.
●
Before attempting to drive up the slope, walk up it to con- firm that the vehicle can handle the grade.
Descending sharp gradesSet the transfer shift lever to the “4LLc” position, use the engine brake (downshifting) and descend slowly.
NOTE●
When descending a sharp grade,
if the brakes are applied
suddenly because of an obstacle encountered, control of the vehicle could be lost. Before descending the slope, walk down it and confirm the path.
●
Before descending a grade, it is necessary to choose the appropriate gear. Avoid changi
ng gears or depressing the
clutch while descending the grade.
●
MITSUBISHI MOTORS is not responsible to the opera- tor for any damage or injury caused or liability incurred by the improper and negligent operation of a vehicle. Alltechniques of vehicle operation described herein depend on the skill and experience of the operator and other par- ticipating parties and any deviation from the recom-mended operation instructions above is at their own risk.
Turning sharp cornersWhen turning a sharp corner in
the “4HLc” or “4LLc” position
at low speed, a slight differen
ce in steering may be experienced
similar to as if the brakes were applied. This is called tight cor-ner braking and results from each of the 4 tyres being at a dif- ferent distance fr
om the corner.
The phenomenon is peculiar to 4-wheel drive vehicles. If thisoccurs, either straighten the st
eering wheel, or change to rear-
wheel drive.
WARNING
!●
Go straight up. Do not try to traverse across a steep slope.
●
If you begin to lose traction, ease off the accelerator pedal and gently turn th
e steering wheel alterna-
tively left and right to regain adequate tractionagain.WARNING
!●
Avoid snaking down a sharp grade. Descend the grade as straight as possible.

Reversing sensor system detection areasDepending on whether the vehicle is equipped with a towing bar, you can change the reversing sensor system between the standard mode and the towing bar mode. The towing bar mode changes the system to exclude th
e area in which the towing bar
is mounted from the detection areas. Vehicles without towing bar The detection areas are within
approximately 50
cm (A) from
the corner sensors, 150 cm
(B) from the back sensors.
Vehicles with towing bar The detection areas are within
approximately 50 cm (A) from
the corner sensors, 150 cm (B) from the back sensors. The non- detection areas (C) are within
approximately 20 cm (D) from
the bumper.NOTE●
If the rear bumper or the
spare wheel garnish has been
exposed to an impact, the corn
er or back sensors may fail
and prevent the system from functioning properly. We rec- ommend you to have your vehicle inspection.
●
The sensors do not detect
objects located in the area
directly below or near the bumper. If the height of an object is lower than the mounted position of the corner or back sensors, the sensors may not continue detecting iteven if they detected it initially.
