1. Gently wipe off with gauze or other soft
cloth soaked with a 5 % aqueous solu-tion of neutral detergent.
2. Dip cloth in fresh water and wring it out
well. Using this cloth, wipe off the deter-
gent thoroughly.
3. Apply leather protecting agent to the
genuine leather surface.
NOTEl If genuine leather is wet with water or is
washed in water, wipe off water as quickly
as possible with a dry, soft cloth. If left damp, mildew may grow.
l The genuine leather surface may be dam-
aged if a nylon brush or synthetic fibre is
rubbed hard against it.
l Organic solvents such as benzine, kerosene,
alcohol and petrol, acid or alkaline solvents
may discolour the genuine leather surface. Be sure to use neutral detergents.
l Remove dirty patches or oil substances
quickly as they can stain genuine leather.
l The genuine leather surface may harden and
shrink if it is exposed to direct sun for long
hours. When your vehicle is parked, place it in the shade as much as possible.
l When the temperature of the vehicle interior
rises in summer, vinyl products left on the
genuine leather seat may deteriorate and stick to the seat.Cleaning the exterior of
your vehicle E00900700108
If the following is left on your vehicle, it may cause corrosion, discolouration and stains, wash the vehicle as soon as possible.
l Seawater, road deicing products.
l Soot and dust, iron powder from facto-
ries, chemical substance (acids, alkalis, coal-tar, etc.).
l Droppings from birds, carcasses of in-
sects, tree sap, etc.Washing
E00900902276
Chemicals contained in the dirt and dust picked up from the road surface can damagethe paint coat and body of your vehicle if left
in prolonged contact.
Frequent washing and waxing is the best way to protect your vehicle from this damage.
This will also be effective in protecting it from environmental elements such as rain,snow, salt air, etc.
Do not wash the vehicle in direct sunlight.
Park the vehicle in the shade and spray it
with water to remove dust. Next, using an ample amount of clean water and a car wash- ing brush or sponge, wash the vehicle from
top to bottom.
Use a mild car washing soap if necessary.
Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry with a soft
cloth. After washing the vehicle, carefully clean the joints and flanges of the doors, bon-
net and other sections where dirt is likely to remain.CAUTIONl When washing the under side of your vehi-
cle or wheel, be careful not to injure your
hands.
l If your vehicle has rain sensor wipers, place
the wiper switch lever in the “OFF” position to deactivate the rain sensor before washing
the vehicle. Otherwise, the wipers will oper- ate in the presence of water spray on the
windscreen and may get damaged as a result.
l Refrain from excessively using a car wash as
its brushes may scratch the paint surface,
causing it to lose its gloss. Scratches will be
especially visible on darker coloured vehi- cles.
l Never spray or splash water on the electrical
components in the engine compartment. Do- ing so could have an adverse effect on the
engine startability.
Exercise caution also when washing the un-
derbody; be careful not to spray water into the engine compartment.
l Some types of hot water washing equipment
apply high pressure and heat to the vehicle. They may cause heat distortion and damage
to the vehicle resin parts and may result in flooding of the vehicle interior.

OGAE14E1Vehicle care9

Check body areas facing the road or the tyres
carefully for damage to the paint caused by gravels, etc. The paint code number for your
vehicle can be found on the vehicle informa- tion code plate in the engine compartment.Cleaning plastic parts
E00901300707
Use a sponge or chamois leather.
If a car wax adheres on a grey or black rough surface of the bumper, moulding or lamps, the surface becomes white. In such a case,
wipe it off using lukewarm water and soft cloth or chamois leather.
CAUTIONl Do not use a scrubbing brush or other hard
tools as they may damage the plastic part surface.
l Do not use wax containing compound (pol-
ishing powder) which may damage the plas-
tic part surface.
l Do not bring the plastic parts into contact
with petrol, light oil, brake fluids, engine
oils, greases, paint thinners, and sulphuric acid (battery electrolyte) which may crack,stain or discolour the plastic parts.
If they touch the plastic parts, wipe them off
with soft cloth, chamois or the like and an aqueous solution of neutral detergent thenimmediately rinse the affected parts with
water.Chrome parts
E00901400098
In order to prevent spots and corrosion of
chrome parts, wash with water, dry thorough-
ly, and apply a special protective coating.
This should be done more frequently in win- ter.
Aluminium wheels*
E00901500347
1. Remove dirt using a sponge while sprin-
kling water on the vehicle.
2. Use neutral detergent on any dirt that
cannot be removed easily with water.
Rinse off the neutral detergent after
washing the vehicle.
3. Dry the vehicle thoroughly using a cha-
mois leather or a soft cloth.
CAUTIONl Do not use a brush or other hard implement
on the wheels.
Doing so could scratch the wheels.
l Do not use any cleaner that contains an abra-
sive substance or is acidic or alkaline. Doing
so could cause the coating on the wheels to peel or become discoloured or stained.
l Do not directly apply hot water using a
steam cleaner or by any other means.
l Contact with seawater and road deicer can
cause corrosion. Rinse off such substances as soon as possible.Window glass
E00901600117
The window glass can normally be cleaned
using only a sponge and water.
Glass cleaner can be used to remove oil, grease, dead insects, etc. After washing the
glass, wipe dry with a clean, dry, soft cloth. Never use a cloth that is used for cleaning a
painted surface to clean a window. Wax from
the painted surface could get on the glass and lower glass transparency and visibility.
NOTEl To clean the inside of the rear window, al-
ways use a soft cloth and wipe the window
glass along the demister heater element so as not to cause damage.Wiper blades
E00901700062
Use a soft cloth and glass cleaner to remove
grease, dead insects, etc., from the wiper blades. Replace the wiper blades when they
no longer wipe properly. (Refer to page 10-16.)

1- Location of the tread wear indicator
2- Tread wear indicator
Check the tyres for cuts, cracks and other
damage. Replace the tyres if there are deep
cuts or cracks. Also check each tyre for pieces of metal or pebbles.
The use of worn tyres can be very dangerous
because of the greater chance of skidding or
hydroplaning. The tread depth of the tyres
must exceed 1.6 mm in order for the tyres to meet the minimum requirement for use.
Tread wear indicators will appear on the sur-
face of the tyre as the tyre wears, thereby in-
dicating that the tyre no longer meets the
minimum requirement for use. When these
wear indicators appear, the tyres must be re-
placed with new ones.On 4-wheel drive vehicles, when replacement
of any of the tyres is necessary, replace all of
them.
Tyres

OGAE14E1Maintenance10

CAUTIONlAlways use tyres of the same size, same
type, and same brand, and which have no wear differences.
Using tyres of different size, type, brands or
degree of wear, will increase the differential
oil temperature, resulting in possible damage to the driving system. Further, the drive train
will be subjected to excessive loading, possi- bly leading to oil leakage, component seiz-ure, or other serious faults.Replacing tyres and wheels
E01007200243
CAUTIONl Avoid using different size tyres from the one
listed and the combined use of different
types of tyres, as this can affect driving safe- ty.
Refer to “Tyres and wheels” on page
11-12.
l Even if a wheel has the same rim size and
offset as the specified type of wheel, its
shape may prevent it from being fitted cor- rectly. We recommend you to consult a spe-
cialist before using wheels that you have.Tyre rotation
E01001901317
Tyre wear varies with vehicle conditions,
road surface conditions and individual driv- er’s driving habits. To equalize the wear andhelp extend tyre life, it is recommended to ro-
tate the tyres immediately after discovery of
abnormal wear, or whenever the wear differ- ence between the front and rear tyres is rec-
ognizable.
When rotating tyres, check for uneven wear
and damage. Abnormal wear is usually caused by incorrect tyre pressure, improper wheel alignment, out of balance wheel, or se-
vere braking. We recommend you to have it checked to determine the cause of irregular
tread wear.FrontFrontFrontSpare tyre used*Spare tyre not usedTyres with arrows showing rotation direction
*- If the spare tyre wheel differs from the standard tyre wheel, do not perform tyre rota-
tion using a spare wheel.
Tyres
10-14 OGAE14E1Maintenance10

CAUTIONlA temporary spare tyre can be fitted tempo-
rarily in place of a tyre that has been re-
moved during the tyre rotation. However, it must not be included in the regular tyre rota-
tion sequence.
l If the tyres have arrows (A) indicating the
correct direction of rotation, swap the front
and rear tyres on the left-hand side of the ve- hicle and the front and rear tyres on the right-hand side of the vehicle separately. Keep each tyre on its original side of the ve-
hicle. When fitting the tyres, make sure the
arrows point in the direction in which the wheels will turn when the vehicle moves forward. Any tyre whose arrow points in the
wrong direction will not perform to its full potential.Front
CAUTIONl Avoid the combined use of different types of
tyres.
Using different types of tyres can affect ve-
hicle performance and safety.Snow tyres
E01002000754
The use of snow tyres is recommended for
driving on snow and ice. To preserve driving stability, mount snow tyres of the same size and tread pattern on all 4 wheels.
A snow tyre that is worn down more than
50% is no longer appropriate to use.
Snow tyres which do not meet specifications must not be used.
CAUTIONl Observe permissible maximum speed for
your snow tyres and the legal speed limit.NOTEl The laws and regulations concerning snow
tyres (driving speed, required use, type, etc.)
vary. Find out and follow the laws and regu- lations in the area you intend to drive.
l If flange nuts are used on your vehicle,
change to tapered nuts when steel wheels are used.Tyre chains
E01002101824
If tyre chains have to be used, ensure that
they are fitted only on the drive wheels
(front) in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
On 4WD vehicles in which the driving power
is distributed preferentially to the front wheels, ensure that the tyre chains are fitted on the front.
Use only tyre chains which are designed for use with the tyres mounted on the vehicle: use of the incorrect size or type of chain
could result in damage to the vehicle body.
Contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point before putting on tyre chains. The max. chain height is as follows.Tyre sizeWheel sizeMax. chain
height [mm]215/65R1616 x 6 1/2 J9 mm215/60R1717 x 6 1/2 j
When driving with tyre chains on the tyres,
do not drive faster than 50 km/h (30 mph) .
When you reach roads that are not covered in snow, immediately remove the tyre chains.

OGAE14E1Maintenance10

CAUTIONlPractice fitting the chains before you need
them.
Don’t expect help from other people in the
cold.
l Choose a clear straight stretch of road where
you can pull over and still be seen while you are fitting the chains.
l Do not fit chains before you need them. This
will wear out your tyres and the road sur-
face.
l After driving around 100-300 metres, stop
and retighten the chains.
l Drive carefully and do not exceed 50 km/h
(30 mph).
Remember that preventing accidents is not
the purpose of tyre chains.
l When tyre chains are installed, take care that
they do not damage the disc wheel or body.
l Do not install a tyre chain on an emergency
wheel which is compact in size. If one of thefront wheels has punctured, replace it withone of the rear wheels and install the tempo-
rary spare wheel in that place before fitting a
tyre chain.
l An aluminium wheel can be damaged by a
tyre chain while driving. When fitting a tyre
chain on an aluminium wheel, take care that any part of the chain and fitting cannot be
brought into contact with the wheel.
l Remove the wheel covers before installing a
tyre chain, otherwise they may be damaged
by the tyre chain. (See page 8-19.)CAUTIONl When installing or removing the tyre chains,
take care that hands and other parts of your
body are not injured by the sharp edges of
the vehicle body.NOTEl The laws and regulations concerning the use
of tyre chains vary. Always follow local laws and regulations.
In most countries, it is prohibited by law to
use tyre chains on roads without snow.Wiper blade rubber
