Installation of accessoriesE00200300875
We  recommend  you  to  consult  your  MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
l The  installation  of  accessories,  optional
parts,  should  only  be  carried  out  within  the
limits prescribed by law in your country, and
in  accordance  with  the  guidelines  fitting  in-
structions  and  warnings  contained  within  the
documents  accompanying  the  parts  or  acces-
sories.
l Improper  installation  of  electrical  compo-
nents may cause an electrical fire if incorrect-
ly  fitted.  Please  refer  to  the  Modification/al-
teration  to  the  electrical  or  fuel  systems  sec-
tion within this owner’s manual.
l Using a cellular phone or radio set inside the
vehicle  without  an  external  antenna  may
cause  electrical  system  interference,  which
could lead to unsafe vehicle operation.
l Tyres and wheels which do not meet specifi-
cations must not be used.
Refer  to  the  “Specifications”  section  for  in-
formation regarding wheel and tyre sizes.
l When  fitting  accessories,  ensure  that  maxi-
mum  gross  vehicle  weight  and  maximum
axle weight are not exceeded.
Important points!
Due  to  large  number  of  accessory  and  replacement
parts of different manufactures available in the mar-
ket,  it  is  not  possible,  not  only  for  MITSUBISHI
MOTORS ,  but  also  for  a  MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized  Service  Point,  to  check  whether  the  at-
tachment  or  installation  of  such  parts  affects  the
overall safety of your MITSUBISHI-vehicle.
 Even  when  such  parts  are  officially  authorized,  for
example  by  a  “general  operators  permit”  (an  ap-
praisal for the part) or through the execution of the
part  in  an  officially  approved  manner  of  construc-
tion,  or  when  a  single  operation  permit  following
the  attachment  or  installation  of  such  parts,  it  can-
not be deduced from that alone, that the driving safe-
ty of your vehicle has 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 ( MITSUBISHI MOTORS original
replacement  or  exchange  parts  as  well  as
MITSUBISHI  MOTORS   genuine  accessories)  that
are  recommended  and  released  by  a  MITSUBISHI
MOTORS  Authorized Service Point and that are at-
tached  or  installed  by  a  MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized  Service  Point  can  you  assume,  that  op-
timal safety has been provided. The same also per-
tains  to  modifications  of  MITSUBISHI  vehicle
with  respect  to  the  production  specifications.  For
your own safety, in such cases, you should only un-
dertake  modifications  according  to  the  recommen-
dations  of  a  MITSUBISHI  MOTORS   Authorized
Service Point.Modification/alterations to the
electrical or fuel systems E00200400238
MITSUBISHI  MOTORS  CORPORATION   has  al-
ways  manufactured  safe,  high  quality  vehicles.  In
order to maintain this safety and quality, it is impor-
tant  that  any  accessory  that  is  to  be  fitted,  or  any
modifications carried out which involve the electri-
cal or fuel systems, should be carried out in accord-
ance with MITSUBISHI guidelines.CAUTIONl If  the  wiring  interferes  with  any  part  of
the  vehicle  bodywork  or  improper  instal-
lation  methods  are  used,  i.e.  protective
fuses  not  installed,  etc.),  electronic  devi-
ces may be adversely affected, possibly re-
sulting  in  an  electrical  fire  or  other  fail-
ures that may cause an accident.
