Good vehicle performance cannot be expected if there is a dif- ference in wear between tyres. Refer to “Tyre rotation” on page 8-21. ●
Check the tyre inflation pressure regularly.
●
If the tyre inflation pressure
is inappropriate, the transfer
gear may make some noise and shock while changing the drive mode.
To w i n gIf towing is necessary, we recommend you to have it done byyour MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point or acommercial tow
truck service.
In the following cases, transpor
t the vehicle using a tow truck.
●
The engine runs but the vehicle does not move or abnor- mal noise is produced.
●
Inspection of the vehicle’s und
erside reveals that oil or
some other fluid is leaking.
Only when you cannot receive a towing service from a MIT- SUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point or commercial
tow truck service, tow your ve
hicle carefully in accordance
with the instructions given in “Towing” on page 6-29.
CAUTION
!●
Always use tyres of the same size, same type, and same brand, and which have no wear differences.Using tyres which differ in size, type, brand or the degree of wear will cause excessive loading, resulting in possible damage to the drive system.
CAUTION
!●
Be sure to shift the tran
sfer shift lever to the “2H”
position. Never try to tow with the transfer shift lever in the “4H”, “4HLc” or “4LLc” positions and with any of the wheels on
the ground (Type A or B).
This could result in damage to the vehicle’s driving system, or the vehicle could become separated from the tow truck and unexpected
accident might result.
If you cannot shift the tr
ansfer shift lever to “2H”
position or the transmission is malfunctioning or damaged, transport the ve
hicle with all the wheels
on a carriage (Type C or D) as illustrated.

German, Italia
n, Swedish,
Dutch, Danish or Portuguese. For details, please refer to the separated owner’s manualfor “Mitsubishi Multi Communication System (MMCS)”.
●
When the vehicle is tilting b
ecause of the number of peo-
ple in the vehicle, the weight and positioning of luggage,and/or the condition of the road surface, the lines in the view from the rear-view camera may not be accurately positioned relative to the actual road.
●
The lines in the view from the rear-view camera are based on a level, flat road surface. Do not use them as a guide for distances to solid objects.
●
Because the rear-view camera has a special lens, the lines on the ground between parking spaces may not look paral- lel on the screen.
●
In the following situations, the screen indication may be difficult to see. There is no abnormality. • Low light (nighttime)• When the light of the sun or the light from a vehicle’s headlamps shines directly into the lens → When an extremely bright spot is shown on the screen, colour smearing* (a
characteristic of CCD cam-
eras) can occur.
●
Colour smearing: When an
extremely bright spot (for
example, sunlight that has
reflected off the bumper) is
shown on the screen, it appear
s to leave a vertical trail.
●
If the camera is hot and is th
en cooled by rain or a car
wash, the lens can mist up. This phenomenon does not indicate a malfunction.
A: Rear extremity of the rear bumper B: Spare wheel garnishC: Approx. 20 cm D: Approx. 50 cm E: Approx. 1 mF: Line (red) G: Line (green)
CAUTION
!●
The rear-view camera has a special lens that can make objects shown on the screen appear to be closer or further away th
an they actually are.
●
The line (red) shows the point approximately 50 cm behind the rear extremity of the rear bumper. Be careful because the spare wheel garnish over- hangs for approximately 30 cm behind the rearextremity of the rear bumper.
