the vehicle next time and the device will au-
tomatically connect to the Bluetooth ®
2.0 in-
terface (if supported by the device).
Up to 7 Bluetooth ®
devices can be paired with the
Bluetooth ®
2.0 interface.
If multiple paired Bluetooth ®

for the Bluetooth ®
connection certification.
It is any 4-digit number the user would like
to select.
Remember the pairing code as it needs to be
keyed into the Bluetooth ®
device later in the
pairing process.
Depending on the connection settings of the
Bluetooth ®
device, this code may have to be
entered each time you connect the Blue-
tooth ®
device to the Bluetooth ®
2.0 inter-
face. For the default connection settings, re-
fer to the instructions for the device.
7. The voice guide will say “Start pairing proce- dure on the device. See the device manual
for instructions.” Enter in the Bluetooth ®
de-
vice the 4-digit number you have registered

will say “Pairing has timed out” and the pair-
ing process will be cancelled.
Confirm that the device you are pairing sup-
ports Bluetooth ®

cle, and have all your passengers leave the ve-
hicle.
5. To prevent the vehicle from rolling when it is raised on the jack, place chocks or blocks
(A) at the tyre that is diagonally opposite
from the tyre (B) you are changing. WARNING
l Be sure to apply chocks
or blocks to the
correct tyre when jacking up the vehicle.
If the vehicle moves while jacked up, the
jack could slip out of position, leading to
an accident.
NOTE l The
chocks shown in the

illustration do not
come with your vehicle. It is recommended
that you keep one in the vehicle for use if nee-
ded.

Towing with rear wheels off the ground (Type C)
Place the gearshift lever in
the “N” (Neutral) posi-
tion (manual transmission) or the selector lever in
the “N” (NEUTRAL) position (automatic transmis-
sion). Turn the ignition key to the “ACC” position
and secure the steering wheel in a straight ahead po-
sition with a rope or tie-down strap. Never place
the ignition switch in the “LOCK” position when
towing.
Emergency towing
If towing service is not available in an emergency,
your vehicle may be temporarily towed by a cable
or chain secured to the towing hook.
If your vehicle is to be towed by another vehicle,
pay careful attention to the following points.
If your vehicle is to be towed by anoth-
er vehicle
1. The front towing hooks (A) and rear towinghook (B) are located as shown in the illustra-
tion. Secure the tow rope to the towing hook.

Front (2WD vehicles with 15 inch wheels) Front (2WD vehicles with 16 inch wheels and
4WD vehicles)
Rear*
NOTE
l Using
any part other than

the designated tow-
ing hooks could result in damage to the vehi-
cle body.
l Using a wire rope or metal chain can result
in damage to the vehicle body. It is best to
use a non-metallic rope. If you use a wire
rope or metal chain, wrap it with cloth at any
point where it touches the vehicle body. l
Take
care
that the
tow
rope is kept as horizon-
tal as possible. An angled tow rope can dam-
age the vehicle body.
l Secure the tow rope to the same side towing
hook, to keep the tow rope as straight as pos-
sible.
2. Keep the engine running. If the engine is not running, turn the ignition
key to the “ACC” or “ON” position to un-
lock the steering wheel. CAUTION
l
When the engine is
not
running, the
brake booster and power steering pump
do not operate. This means higher brake
depression force and higher steering ef-
fort are required. Therefore, vehicle oper-
ation is more difficult than usual.
l Do not leave the key in the “LOCK” posi-
tion. The steering wheel will lock, causing
loss of control.
3. Place the gearshift lever in the “N” (Neutral)
position (manual
transmission) or

the selec-
tor lever in the “N” (NEUTRAL) position (au-
tomatic transmission).
4. On 4WD vehicles, the transfer shift lever to “2H” position.
5. Turn on the hazard warning lamps if required by law.
(Follow the local driving laws and regula-
tions.)
6. During towing make sure that close contact is maintained between the drivers of both ve-
hicles, and that the vehicles travel at low
speed. For emergencies

Service precautions
E01000100706
Adequate care of your vehicle
at regular intervals
serves to preserve the value and appearance as long
as possible.
Maintenance items as described in this owner’s man-
ual can be performed by the owner.
We recommend you to have the periodic inspection
and maintenance performed by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or another spe-
cialist.
In the event a malfunction or other problem is dis-
covered, we recommend you to have it checked
and repaired. This section contains information on
inspection maintenance procedures that you can do
yourself. Follow the instructions and cautions for
each of the various procedures. WARNING
l When checking or servicing
the
inside of
the engine compartment, make sure the
engine is switched off and has had a
chance to cool down.
l If it is necessary to do work in the engine
compartment with the engine running, be
especially careful that your clothing, hair,
etc., does not become caught by the fans,
drive belts, or other moving parts.
l For vehicle with air conditioning, the fan
may turn on automatically even if the en-
gine is not running; turn the ignition key
to “LOCK” position and remove the key
to ensure safety while you work in the en-
gine compartment. WARNING
l Do not smoke, cause sparks
or allow open
flames around fuel or battery. The fumes
are flammable.
l Be extremely cautious when working
around the battery. It contains poisonous
and corrosive sulphuric acid.
l Do not get under your vehicle with just
the body jack supporting it. Always use
automotive jack stands.
l Improper handling of components and
materials used in the vehicle can endan-
ger your personal safety. We recommend
you to consult a specialist for necessary in-
formation. Catalytic converter
E01000200925
For ordinary use, there are

no particular precautions.
The exhaust gas scavenging devices used with the
catalytic converter are extremely efficient for the re-
duction of noxious gases. The catalytic converter is
installed in the exhaust system.
It is important to keep the engine properly tuned to
ensure proper catalyst operation and prevent possi-
ble catalyst damage. CAUTION
l
Damage to the catalytic
converter
can re-
sult if your vehicle is not kept in proper
operating condition. In the event of an en-
gine malfunction particularly involving
engine misfire or other apparent loss of
performance, have your vehicle serviced
promptly.
Continued operation of your vehicle with
a severe overheated condition may result
in possible damage to the converter and
vehicle. WARNING
l As with any vehicle, do
not park or oper-
ate this vehicle in areas where combusti-
ble materials such as dry grass or leaves
can come in contact with a hot exhaust
since a fire could occur.
l Paint should not be applied to the catalyt-
ic converter. Maintenance
