NOTE
To avoid the risk of damage to the tire inflation pressure
sensors, have any punctured tire repaired by an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer. If the tire repair is not done by
an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer, it is not covered
by your warranty.

Do not use an aerosol puncture-repair product on any tire.
Such a spray could damage the tire inflation pressure sen-
sors. Have any puncture repaired by an authorized Mit-
subishi Motors dealer.The tire pressure monitoring system may not work normally in
the following circumstances:

A wireless facility or device using the same frequency is
near the vehicle.

Snow or ice is stuck inside the fenders and/or on the
wheels.

The tire inflation pressure sensor’s battery is dead.

Wheels other than Mitsubishi genuine wheels are being
used.

Wheels that are not fitted with tire inflation pressure sen-
sors are being used.

Wheels whose ID codes are not memorized by the vehicle
are used.

Compact spare tire is fitted on a road wheel.

A window tint that affects the radio wave signals is
installed.
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 to come on)
when the ambient temperature is relatively low. If the
warning light/display comes on, adjust the tire inflation
pressure.
WA R N I N G
!
If the warning light/display illuminates while you
are driving, avoid hard braking, sharp steering
maneuvers and high speeds. Driving with an under-
inflated tire adversely affects vehicle performance
and can result in an accident.
CAUTION
!
If a tire has a puncture, replace that tire with the
spare tire. Driving on a punctured tire could lead to
an accident.
The warning light/display may not illuminate imme-
diately in the event of a tire blowout or rapid leak.

Whenever the tires and wheels are replaced with
new ones
N00532900179
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.

cated by the lines on the screen, depending on the
loading condition of the vehicle and road surface
condition.
The reference lines for distance and vehicle width
are based on a level, flat road surface. In the follow-
ing cases, objects shown on the screen will appear to
be farther off than they actually are.
