If the Plug-in Hybrid EV system cannot be
started because the auxiliary battery is weak or dead, the battery from another vehicle can
be used with jumper cables to start the Plugin
Hybrid EV system.
WARNINGl To start the Plug-in Hybrid EV system us-
ing jumper cables from another vehicle
and perform the correct procedures ac-
cording to the instruction below. Incor- rect procedures could result in a fire, ex-
plosion, electric shock or damage to the
vehicles.
l Keep sparks, cigarettes and flames away
from the battery because the battery may
produce an explosion.CAUTIONl The Plug-in Hybrid EV system cannot be
started by pulling or pushing the vehicle.CAUTIONl Check the other vehicle. It must have a 12-
volt battery. If the other system isn’t 12-volt,shorting can damage both vehicles.
l Use the proper cables suitable for the battery
size to prevent overheating of the cables.
l Check the jumper cables for damage and
corrosion before use.
l Always wear protective eye goggles when
working near the battery.
l Keep the battery out of the reach of children.
l Do not attempt jump starting the auxiliary
battery while the drive battery is being charged. Doing so could damage the charg-
ing equipment or the vehicle.NOTEl If the auxiliary battery is disconnected, the
operation mode of the power switch is mem-
orized. When a booster battery is connected
by jumper cables, the operation mode re- turns to the state before the auxiliary battery
ran down.
Pay due attention if you do not know the op-
eration mode before the auxiliary battery
was fully discharged.
l If the auxiliary battery is fully discharged
with the select position in the “P” (PARK)
position, the select position cannot be changed to other position from the “P”
(PARK) position in some cases. In such a case, the front wheels have been locked.
Therefore, the vehicle cannot be moved.

Tyre repair kit
9-08OGGE14E5For emergencies9

NOTElIn cold conditions (when the ambient tem-
perature is 0 °C or lower), the time and driv-ing distance necessary until completion of
the repair can be longer than in warmer con- ditions, meaning that the tyre pressure candrop below the specified level even when
you have inflated the tyre a second time and
subsequently have driven the vehicle. If this happens, inflate the tyre to the specified
pressure once more, drive for about 10 mi-
nutes or 5 km, then check the tyre pressure again. If the tyre pressure has again dropped
below the specified level, stop driving the vehicle and contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or an-
other specialist.
21. Immediately drive with great care to a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point and have tyre repair/
replacement performed.
CAUTIONl Be sure to check the tyre pressure for confir-
mation that the emergency repair procedureis complete.NOTEl Please give the empty sealant bottle to your
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point when you purchase new sealant or dispose of the sealant bottle according to na-
tional regulations for the disposal of chemi- cal waste.
l A tyre in which puncture sealant has been
used should ideally be replaced with a newone. If you wish to have such a tyre properly
repaired for reuse, please contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point or another specialist. Note that a
proper repair is impossible following an emergency repair if the puncture hole cannot
be located.
l The manufacturer is unable to guarantee that
all tyre punctures can be repaired with the
tyre repair kit, in particular cuts or perfora- tions with a diameter of more than 4 mm or
away from the tyre’s tread. The manufactur- er is not liable for damage sustained throughimproper use of the tyre repair kit.
l The manufacturer is not liable for damage
sustained through re-use of any tyre in which tyre sealant has been used.How to change a tyre
E00801203924
Before changing a tyre, first stop your vehi-cle in a safe, flat location. 1. Park the vehicle on level and stable
ground, free of loose pebbles, etc.
2. Set the parking brake firmly.
3. Put the select position in “P” (PARK)
position and stop the Plug-in Hybrid EV
system.
4. Have all your passengers get out of the
vehicle.
5. To prevent the vehicle from rolling
when jacking up the vehicle, place chocks or blocks (A) at the tyre that is diagonally opposite from the tyre (B)
you are changing.WARNINGl Be sure to apply chocks or blocks to the
correct tyre when jacking up the vehicle.If the vehicle moves while jacked up, the
jack could slip out of position, leading to
an accident.
How to change a tyre
9-13OGGE14E5For emergencies9

WARNINGlStop jacking up the vehicle as soon as the
tyre is raised off the ground. It is danger-
ous to raise the vehicle any higher.
l Do not get under your vehicle while using
the jack.
l Do not bump the raised vehicle or leave it
sitting on the jack for a long time. Both are very dangerous.
l Do not use a jack except the one that
came with your vehicle.
l The jack should not be used for any pur-
pose other than to change a tyre.
l No one should be in your vehicle when us-
ing the jack.
l Do not start the Plug-in Hybrid EV sys-
tem while your vehicle is on the jack.
l Do not turn the raised wheel. The tyres
still on the ground could turn and make your vehicle fall off the jack.
5. Remove the wheel nuts with the wheel
nut wrench, then take the wheel off.
CAUTIONl Handle the wheel carefully when changing
the tyre, to avoid scratching the wheel sur- face.
6. Clean out any mud, etc. on the hub sur-
face (F), hub bolts (G) or in the installa- tion holes (H) in the wheel, and then
mount the tyre.
WARNINGl Mount the wheel with the valve stem (I)
facing outboard. If you cannot see the
valve stem (I), you have installed the wheel backwards.
Operating the vehicle with the wheel in-
stalled backwards can cause vehicle dam- age and result in an accident.
7. Turn the wheel nuts clockwise by hand
to initially tighten them.
[Type 1: On vehicles with steel wheels]
Temporarily tighten the wheel nuts by hand until the tapered parts of the wheel nuts make light contact with the seats of the wheel holes and the wheel is not
loose.
[Type 2: On vehicles with aluminium wheels]
Temporarily tighten the wheel nuts by
hand until the flange parts of the wheel nuts make light contact with the wheel and the wheel is not loose.Type 1Type 2
CAUTIONl Never apply oil to either the wheel bolts or
the nuts, or they will tighten too much.
How to change a tyre
9-15OGGE14E5For emergencies9

NOTElOn vehicles with aluminium wheels, if all 4
aluminium wheels are changed to steel wheels. e. g. when fitting winter tyres, use
tapered nuts.
8. Lower the vehicle slowly by rotating the
wheel nut wrench anticlockwise until the
tyre touches the ground.
9. Tighten the nuts in the order shown in
the illustration until each nut has been
tightened to the torque listed here.

Tightening torque 88 to 108 NmCAUTIONl Never use your foot or a pipe extension for
extra force in the wheel nut wrench. If you
do so, you will tighten the nut too much.
10. On vehicles with wheel covers, install
the covers (refer to “Wheel covers” on
page 9-17).
11. Lower and remove the jack, then store
the jack, flat tyre, and chocks. Have your
damaged tyre repaired as soon as possi- ble.
12. Check your tyre inflation pressure at the
next gasstation. The correct tyre pres-
sures are shown on the driver’s door la- bel. See the illustration.
13. After filling your tyres to the correct
pressure, reset the tyre pressure monitor-
ing system (TPMS).
Refer to “Tyre pressure monitoring sys- tem (TPMS): Reset of low tyre pressure
warning threshold” on page 7-67.
CAUTIONl After changing the tyre and driving the vehi-
cle about 1,000 km (620 miles), retighten the
wheel nuts to make sure that they have not come loose.
l If the steering wheel vibrates when driving
after changing the tyre, we recommend you to have the tyres checked for balance.

WARNINGlWhen trying to rock your vehicle out of a
stuck position, make sure that there are
no people nearby. The rocking motion can make your vehicle suddenly lurch for-
ward or backward, and injure any by- standers.
On a flooded road
l Do not drive on a flooded road. If you
drive on a flooded road, not only does the Plugin Hybrid EV System stop but
there may be a failure like electric leak- age or short circuit.
If you inevitably had to run on a flooded
road and the vehicle was exposed to wa- ter, be sure to have your vehicle inspec-
ted by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point.
l If there is water on the brakes after driv-
ing through puddles or washing the vehi- cle, resulting in temporarily ineffective
brakes. In such cases, lightly depress the brake pedal to see if the brakes operate
properly. If they do not, lightly depress the pedal several times while driving in
order to dry the brake pads.
l When driving in rain or on a road with
many puddles a layer of water may form
between the tyres and the road surface.
This reduces a tyre’s frictional resistance
on the road, resulting in loss of steering stability and braking capability.

To cope with this, observe the following
items: A- Drive your vehicle at slow speed.B- Do not drive on worn tyres.
C- Always maintain the specified tyre
inflation pressures.
On a snow-covered or frozen road
l When driving on a snow-covered or fro-
zen road, it is recommended that you use snow tyres or snow traction device (tyre chains).
Refer to the “Snow tyres” and “Snow
traction device (tyre chains)” sections.
l Avoid high-speed operation, sudden ac-
celeration, abrupt brake application and
sharp cornering.
l Depressing the brake pedal during travel
on snowy or icy roads may cause tyre
slippage and skidding. When traction be-
tween the tyres and the road is reduced the wheels may skid and the vehicle can-
not readily be brought to a stop by con- ventional braking techniques. Brakingwill differ, depending upon whether you
have anti-lock brake system (ABS). As your vehicle is equipped with ABS,brake by pressing the brake pedal hard,
and keeping it pressed.
l Allow extra distance between your vehi-
cle and the vehicle in front of you, and avoid sudden braking.
l Accumulation of ice on the braking sys-
tem can cause the wheels to lock. Pullaway from a standstill slowly after con-
firming safety around the vehicle.CAUTIONl Do not press the accelerator pedal rapidly. If
the wheels break free of the ice, the vehicle
could suddenly start moving and possibly cause an accident.
On a bumpy or rutted road
Drive as slow as possible when driving on
bumpy or rutted roads.
