NOTElSimply putting sealant and air into the tyre
using the tyre repair kit does not seal the
puncture hole. Air will leak through the puncture hole until the emergency repair procedure is completed (through step 19 or
step 20 of these instructions).
17. Affix the speed restriction sticker (Q) to
the three-diamond mark on the steering wheel.
CAUTIONl Do not affix the sticker anywhere except the
specified position on the pad of the steeringwheel. Affixing the sticker in an incorrect
position could prevent the SRS airbag from working normally.18. When you have inflated the tyre to the
specified pressure, stow the compressor,
bottle, and other items in the vehicle and
promptly start driving the vehicle so that the tyre sealant can spread evenly in the
tyre. Drive with great care. Do not ex- ceed a speed of 80 km/h (50 mph). Ob-
serve local speed limits.CAUTIONl If you sense any abnormality while driving,
stop the vehicle and contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or an-
other specialist. Otherwise the tyre pressure
may drop before the emergency repair pro- cedure is completed, rendering the vehicle
unsafe.NOTEl Driving faster than 80 km/h (50 mph)
can
make the vehicle vibrate.
19. After driving for 10 minutes or 5 km ,
check the tyre pressure using the air
pressure gauge on the compressor. If the
tyre pressure has apparently not drop- ped, the emergency repair procedure iscomplete. Continue the process from
step 21.
If the tyre pressure is not sufficient, in- flate the tyre to the specified pressure
again and drive the vehicle carefully
without exceeding a speed of 80 km/h (50 mph).CAUTIONl If the tyre pressure is lower than the mini-
mum permitted pressure (1.3 bar {130
kPa}), the tyre cannot successfully be re- paired with the tyre sealant. Do not drive the
vehicle any further. Contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or an-
other specialist.
20. After driving for 10 minutes or 5 km ,
check the tyre pressure using the air
pressure gauge on the compressor. If the
tyre pressure has apparently not drop- ped, the emergency repair procedure iscomplete. You must still not exceed a speed of 80 km/h (50 mph). Observe lo-
cal speed limits.
NOTEl If the tyre pressure has dropped below the
specified level when you check it at the end
of the repair procedure, do not drive the ve- hicle any further. Contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or an-
other specialist.

If your vehicle is to be towed by
another vehicleWARNINGl Never tow your vehicle in this method ex-
cept in emergency situations such as run-
ning out of fuel. If the vehicle is towed in this method, a problem can occur in thevehicle damaging the motor, transaxle,

1. The front towing hooks are located as
shown in illustration. Secure the tow rope to the front towing hook.
NOTEl Using any part other than the designated
towing hook could result in damage to vehi-cle body.NOTEl Using a wire rope or metal chain can result
in damage to the vehicle body. It is best to use a non-metallic rope. If you use a wire
rope or metal chain, wrap it with cloth at any
point where it touches the vehicle body.

power switch in “ON”.
WARNINGl If the vehicle is towed with the operation
mode in “ON” without starting the Plugin
Hybrid EV System, the auxiliary battery may be fully discharged during towing. In
this case, the brake performance becomes very poor and the steering wheel becomes
very heavy.CAUTIONl For vehicle equipped with the Adaptive
Cruise Control system (ACC) and Forward Collision Mitigation system (FCM), stopthese systems to prevent an unexpected acci-
dent or unexpected operation during towing. Refer to “Adaptive Cruise Control system
(ACC)” on page 7-43 and “Forward Colli-

quired by law. (Follow the local driving
laws and regulations.)
5. During towing make sure that close con-
tact is maintained between the drivers of
both vehicles, and that the vehicles trav-
el at low speed.
WARNINGl Avoid sudden braking, acceleration and
steering wheel movements; such driving
operation could cause damage to the tow- ing hook or tow rope.
People in the vicinity could be injured as a
result.
l When going down a long slope, the brakes
may overheat, reducing effectiveness.
Have your vehicle transported by a tow truck.
