NOTE

Tire inflation pressures vary with the ambient tempera-
ture. If the vehicle is subjected to large variations in ambi-
ent temperature, the tire inflation pressures may be under-
inflated (causing the warning light / display come on)
when the ambient temperature is relatively low. If the
warning light / display comes on, adjust the tire inflation
pressure.
Whenever the tires and wheels are replaced with
new ones
N00532900081
If new wheels with new tire inflation pressure sensors are
installed, their ID codes must be programmed into the tire pres-
sure monitoring system. Have tire and wheel replacement per-
formed by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer to avoid the
risk of damaging the tire inflation pressure sensors. If the
wheel replacement is not done by an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer, it is not covered by your warranty.

!

Never rely solely on the rear-view camera to clear
the area behind your vehicle. Always check visually
behind and all around your vehicle for persons, ani-
mals, obstructions or other vehicles. Failure to do so
can result in vehicle damage, serious injury or
death.


The rear-view camera is an aid system for backing
up, but it is not a substitute for your visual confir-
mation.


The view on the screen is limited, and objects out-
side the view, such as under the bumper or around
either corner of the bumper end, cannot be seen on
the screen.
CAUTION
!

If the camera lens gets dirty, a clear image cannot be
obtained. As necessary, rinse the lens with clean
water and gently wipe with a clean, soft cloth.


To avoid damaging the camera; Do not rub the cover excessively or polish it by
using an abrasive compound.
 Do not disassemble the camera.
 Do not splash hot water directly on the lens.
 Do not spray the camera and its surroundings with
high-pressure water.
 Make sure that the tailgate is securely closed when
backing up.
