vehicle or the jack might fall over and cause per-
sonal injury. Do not use the jack on a tilted or soft surface.

injury. Always use the jack on a flat, hard surface.
Before setting the jack, make sure there are no sand
or pebbles under the jack base.

take the wheel off. 6. Clean out any mud, etc. on the hub surface (F), hub bolts
(G) or in the installation holes (H) in the wheel, and then
mount the spare tire.The jack should not be used for any purpose other
than to change a tire. No one should be in your vehicle when using the
jack. Do not start or run the engine while your vehicle is
on the jack.Do not turn the raised wheel. The tires that are still
on the ground could turn and make your vehicle fall
off the jack.

• Compact spare wheel
Install the wheel nuts with their tapered ends facing
inward, then tighten by hand until the wheel is no longer
loose.
NOTEFlange nuts can be temporarily used on the compact spare
or steel wheel, but return them to the original wheel and
tire as soon as possible.
If all four wheels are changed to steel wheels, use tapered
nuts.8. Lower the vehicle slowly by rotating the wheel nut
wrench counterclockwise until the tire touches the
ground.
CAUTION
!Never apply oil to either the wheel bolts or the nuts
or they will tighten too much.

Snow tires
N00940000359
In some areas of the country, snow tires are required for winter
driving. If snow tires are required in your area, you must
choose snow tires of the same size and type as the original tires
provided with your vehicle. Snow tires should also be installed
on all four wheels. Otherwise your safety and vehicle handling
can be reduced.
Even where laws may permit it, snow tires should not be oper-
ated at sustained speeds over 75 mph (120 km/h).Tire chains

Clutch pedal free play
(if so equipped)
N00940200087
To check the clutch pedal free play (A), turn off the engine and
press the pedal until you feel resistance.
Clutch pedal free play:
.2 to .4 inch (4 to 9 mm)
CAUTION
!If flange nuts are used on your vehicle, change to
tapered nuts when using snow tires with steel
wheels. Only Mitsubishi Motors genuine wheels should be
used, because your vehicle is equipped with a tire
pressure monitoring system.
Use of another type of wheel risks air leaks and sen-
sor damage, as it will not be possible to install the
tire pressure sensor properly.
CAUTION
!Tire chains cannot be used on your vehicle. The
clearance between the chains and the body is not
sufficient to allow proper clearance, and the vehicle
body might be damaged.
