CAUTION
!
If the selected drive mode indicator is blinking, the
vehicle switches automatically to front-wheel drive
in order to protect the drive-system components,
and drive mode selection is no longer possible with
the drive mode-selector.
The warning display is also displayed in the infor-
mation screen in the multi-information display.
Reduce speed, and if the indicator goes out after
driving a while, resume driving as before. If the indi-
cator continues blinking for more than about 5 min-
utes, have the vehicle inspected at an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your
choice as soon as possible.Type 1 Type 2
CAUTION
!
The warning display on the information screen in
the multi-information display, a problem has
occurred with the electronically controlled 4WD sys-
tem and the safety device has activated. Have an
inspection made by an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice as
soon as possible.Type 1 Type 2
CAUTION
!
Always use tires of the same size, type, and brand
that have no wear differences. Using tires that differ
in size, type, brand, or wear amount may activate
the protection of the drive-system components, caus-
ing the drive mode in “4WD AUTO” mode to lock or
the “4WD” and “LOCK” indicators to blink alter-
nately.

Cautions on the handling of 4-wheel drive
vehicles
N00530800187
Tires and wheelsSince the driving torque can be applied to the four wheels, the
driving performance of the vehicle when operating in 4-wheel
drive is greatly affected by the condition of the tires.
Pay close attention to the tires.

Install only the specified tires on all wheels. Refer to
“Tires and wheels” on page 9-8.

Be sure all four tires and wheels are the same size and
type.
When it is necessary to replace any of the tires or wheels,
replace all four.

All tires should be rotated before the wear difference
between the front and rear tires is recognizable.
Good vehicle performance cannot be expected if there is a dif-
ference in wear between tires. Refer to “Tire rotation” on page
7-30.
Check the tire inflation pressure regularly.
CAUTION
!
Always use tires of the same size, type, and brand
that have no wear differences. Using tires of differ-
ent size, type, brands or degree of wear, will increase
the differential oil temperature and result in possi-
ble damage to the driving system. Further, the drive
train will be subject to excessive loading, possibly
leading to oil leakage, component seizure, or other
serious failures.

NOTE
A whining sound is emitted from the engine compartment
when driving immediately after starting the engine. These
are the normal sounds the anti-lock braking system makes
when performing a self-check. It does not indicate a mal-
function.

The anti-lock braking system can be used after the vehicle
has reached a speed over approximately 6 mph (10 km/h).
It stops working when the vehicle slows below 3 mph (5
km/h).
Anti-lock braking system warning light/display
N00531600645
Warning light
Warning display type 1
Warning display type 2
If there is a malfunction in the system, the anti-lock braking
system warning light will come on and the warning display
will appear on the information screen in the multi-information
display.
Under normal conditions, the ABS warning light only comes
on when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or
the operation mode is put in ON and goes off a few seconds
later.
CAUTION
!
The anti-lock braking system cannot prevent acci-
dents. It is your responsibility to take safety precau-
tions and to drive carefully.
To prevent failure of the anti-lock braking system,
be sure all 4 wheels and tires are the same size and
the same type.

Active stability control (ASC)
N00559100134
The Active stability control (ASC) takes overall control of the
anti-lock braking system, traction control function and skid
control function to help maintain the vehicle’s control and trac-
tion. Please read this section in conjunction with the page on
the anti-lock braking system, traction control function and skid
control function.
Anti-lock braking system → P.3-97
Traction control function → P.3-103
Skid control function → P.3-103
CAUTION
!
If the warning display appears while the engine is
running, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your
choice as soon as possible. It may become harder to
turn the steering wheel.
CAUTION
!
Do not over-rely on the ASC. Even the ASC cannot
prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on
the vehicle. This system, like any other system, has
limits and cannot help you to maintain traction and
control of the vehicle in all circumstances. Reckless
driving can lead to accidents. It is the driver’s
responsibillty to drive carefully, This means taking
into account the traffic, road and environmental
conditions.
Be sure to use the same specified type and size of tire
on all four wheels. Otherwise, the ASC may not
work properly.
Do not install any aftermarket limited slip differen-
tial (LSD) on your vehicle. The ASC may stop func-
tioning properly.

11. Check the tire inflation pressure. The recommended tirepressure for your vehicle is listed on the tire and loading
information placard attached to the driver’s door sill as
shown in the illustration. Refer to “Tire inflation pres-
sures” on page 7-27.
To store the flat tire or spare tire, jack, bar and
wheel nut wrench
N00850000162
Reverse the removing procedure when storing the flat tire or
spare tire, jack, bar and wheel nut wrench.
Refer to “To remove the spare tire” on page 6-11 and “Jack and
tools” on page 6-7.
CAUTION
!
Driving with an improperly inflated tire can cause
an accident. If you have no choice but to drive with
an under-inflated tire, keep your speed down and
avoid sudden steering or braking, if possible. Inflate
the tire to the correct pressure as soon as possible.
Refer to “Tire inflation pressures” on page 7-27.
After changing the tire and driving the vehicle about
620 miles (1,000 km), retighten the wheel nuts to
make sure that they have not come loose.
If the steering wheel vibrates when driving after
changing the tire, have the tire checked for balance
at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a
repair facility of your choice.
Do not mix one type of tire with another or use a dif-
ferent size from the one listed. This would cause
early wear and poor handling.
