stop the vehicle in a safe
area. Then set the selector

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.

1. Get the vehicles close en
ough so the jumper cables can
reach, but be sure the vehicles
aren’t touching each other.
2. Set the parking brake firmly
on each vehicle. Put an auto-
matic transmission in “P” (PARK) or a manual transmis- sion in “N” (Neutral). Turn
off the ignition switch.
3. Turn off all lamps, heater
and other electrical loads.
4. Make sure battery electrolyte is at the proper level.
Refer to “Battery” on page 8-16.

both vehicles beforehand.
Make sure that the cables or your clothes cannot be caught by the fan or dr
ive belt. Personal injury

explode if the tempera-
ture is below the freezing poin
t or if it is not filled to
the proper level.
