6If the vehicle breaks down
N00836300233
If your vehicle breaks down on the road, move to the shoulder
and turn on the hazard warning flashers. If there is no shoulder,
or the shoulder is not safe, drive in the right lane slowly with
the hazard lights flashing until you come to a safe stopping
place. Keep the flashers flashing.If the engine stops/failsIf the engine stops, there will be no power assist to the steering
and brakes, making these difficult to use.

The brake booster will not work, so the brakes will not
grip well. The brake pedal will be harder to press than
usual.

Since there is no power steering assist, the steering wheel
will be hard to turn.When the engine fails at the intersectionGet help from your passengers, bystanders, etc. to push the
vehicle and move it to a safe area.
Jump-starting the engine
N00836400768
If the engine cannot be started because the battery is weak or
dead, you can start it with the battery from another vehicle
using jumper cables.NOTE
Do not use jumper cables if they have damage or corro-
sion.
1. Take off any metal jewelry such as watch bands or brace-
lets that might create an accidental electrical contact.
2. Position the vehicles close enough together so that the
jumper cables can reach, but be sure the vehicles aren’t
touching each other.
WA R N I N G
!
To reduce the risk of igniting flammable gas that
may be emitted from the battery, carefully read this
section before jump-starting the vehicle.
Do not try to start your vehicle by pushing or tow-
ing. This can cause an accident resulting in serious
injury or death and can damage the vehicle.
CAUTION
!
Check the other vehicle. It must have a 12-volt bat-
tery. If the other system isn’t 12-volt, both systems
can be damaged.

(+) terminal of the discharged battery (A), and then con-
nect the other end to the positive (+) terminal of the
booster battery (B).

7 Replacement of light bulbs
N00942900349
Before replacing the bulb, be sure the light is off. Do not touch
the glass part of the new bulb with your bare fingers; the oil
from your skin will stay on the glass and dim or destroy the
bulb when it gets hot.
NOTE
If you are unsure of how to carry out the work as required,
it is recommended that these procedures be carried out by
an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility
of your choice.

Be careful not to scratch the vehicle body when removing
a light and lens.

When it rains, or when the vehicle has been washed, the
inside of the lens sometimes becomes temporarily foggy.
This is the same phenomenon as when window glass mists
up on a humid day, and does not indicate a functional
problem.
When the light is switched on, the heat will remove the
fog. However, if water gathers inside the light, please
have it checked by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer or a repair facility of your choice.
CAUTION
!
Bulbs are extremely hot immediately after being
turned off.
When replacing the bulb, wait for it to cool suffi-
ciently before touching it. You could otherwise be
burned.
Handle halogen light bulb with care. The gas inside
halogen light bulb is highly pressurized, so drop-
ping, knocking, or scratching a halogen light bulb
can cause it to shatter.
Never hold the halogen light bulb with a bare hand,
dirty glove, etc.
The oil from your hand could cause the bulb to
break the next time the headlights are used.
If the glass surface is dirty, clean it with alcohol and
let it dry completely before installing the bulb.
