trol will be turned off.)
l Press the “CANCEL” switch (D).
l Depress the brake pedal. The set speed driving is deactivated automatically
in any of the following ways.
l When

(25 mph) or less.
l When the active stability & traction control
(ASTC) starts operating. (if so equipped)
Refer to “Active Stability & Traction Con-
trol (ASTC)” on page 4-47. WARNING
l On
vehicles with A/T, although, the set
speed driving will be deactivated when
shifting to the “N” (NEUTRAL) position,
never move the selector lever to the “N”
(NEUTRAL) position while driving.
You would have no engine braking and
could cause a serious accident.
Also, the set speed driving may be deactivated as
follows: l When

the engine speed rises and approaches
the tachometer's red zone (the red-coloured
part of the tachometer dial). CAUTION
l
When
the set speed driving is deactivated
automatically in any situation other than
those listed above, there may be a system
malfunction.

NOTE
l The
values under item 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 are ap-
plicable to unladen vehicles. These values
can also be varied depending on the tyre size,
optional equipment and suspension condi-
tions. Operating hints
l Do
not let the clutch slip (vehicles with a M/
a only) and do not increase the engine speed
more than necessary when starting.
l Be sure that the driving speed does not ex-
ceed the maximum speed for trailer operation.
l To prevent shocks from the overrun brake, de-
press the brake pedal lightly at first and then
more strongly. l
To make full use of engine braking, change
to a lower gear before descending a slope.
l The body, brakes, clutch, and chassis will be
under additional strain when towing a trailer.
l The heavier weight and higher rolling and air
resistance will increase fuel consumption. Starting and driving

Clutch fluid*
E01001000281
To check the fluid level
The
clutch fluid in the master cylinder should be
checked when performing other underhood service.
In addition, the system should be checked for leak-
age at the same time.
Check to make certain that the clutch fluid level is
always between the “MAX” and “MIN” level mark-
ings on the fluid reservoir. A rapid fluid loss indicates a leak in the clutch sys-
tem
which should be inspected by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or another spe-
cialist and repaired immediately.
Fluid type
Brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 should
be used.
The reservoir cap must be fully tightened to avoid
contamination from foreign matter or moisture.
DO NOT ALLOW PETROLEUM-BASED FLUID
TO CONTACT, MIX WITH, OR OTHERWISE
CONTAMINATE THE BRAKE FLUID. SEAL
DAMAGE WILL RESULT. WARNING
l Take
care in handling brake fluid as it is
harmful to the eyes and may also cause
damage to painted surfaces. Wipe up any
spills immediately. Power steering fluid
E01001100703
To check the fluid level
Check

the fluid level in the reservoir while the en-
gine is idling.
Check to make certain that the power steering fluid
level is always between the “MAX” and “MIN” lev-
el markings on the fluid reservoir and refill the flu-
id, if necessary. Fluid type
Use “ATF DEXRON III or DEXRON II”. Maintenance

Before fitting tyre chains, we recommend you to
consult
a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point. The max. chain height is as follows. Tyre size Wheel size Max. chain

215/70R15C *
15x6.0 JJ
22205R16C 16x6.0 JJ
205/80R16 16x6.0 JJ
245/70R16 16x7.0 J
245/65R17 17x7.5 J
* :
215/70R15C size should only be used as snow
tyres. The speed limit for tyre chain is 50 km/h (30

mph)
and remove the tyre chains as soon as possible on
snow free roads. WARNING
l DO
NOT use a jack when fitting the
chains, as in thsee conditions, the tyres
may slip on the icy road causing the vehi-
cle to slip off the jack. CAUTION
l
Practice
fitting the chains before you
need them.
Don’t expect help from other people in
the cold.
l Choose a clear straight stretch of road
where you can pull over and still be seen
while you are fitting the chains. CAUTION
l
Do
not fit chains before you need them.
This will wear out your tyres and the
road surface.
l After driving around 100-300 metres,
stop and retighten the chains.
l Drive carefully and do not exceed
50 km/h (30 mph). Remember, fitting
chains is not going to stop accidents from
happening.
l When tyre chains are installed, take care
that they do not damage the disc wheel or
body.
l An aluminium wheel can be damaged by
a tyre chain while driving. When fitting a
tyre chain on an aluminium wheel, take
care that any part of the chain and fitting
cannot be brought into contact with the
wheel.
l When installing or removing the tyre
chains, take care that hands and other
parts of your body are not injured by the
sharp edges of the vehicle body.
l Install the chains only on the rear tyres
and tighten them as tightly as possible
with the ends securely fastened.
NOTE l The

laws and regulations concerning the use
of tyre chains vary. Find out and follow the
laws and regulations of the area you're driv-
ing in.
In most countries, it is prohibited by law to
use tyre chains on roads without snow. Clutch pedal free play*
