2014 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER PHEV jacking

lCheck the tyre inflation pressure regular-
ly.CAUTIONl Always 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 in-
crease the differential oil temperature, result-
ing in possible damage to the driving sys- tem. Further, the drive train will be subjec-
ted to excessive loading possibly leading to oil leakage, component seizure, or other seri-ous faults.
Towing
CAUTIONl Do not tow 4-wheel drive vehicles with the
front or rear wheels on the ground (Type Aor Type B) as illustrated. This could result in
damage to the drivetrain, or unstable towing. If you tow 4-wheel drive vehicles, use Type
C or Type D equipment.
Jacking up a 4-wheel drive ve-
hicle
WARNINGl Do not turn on the Plug-in Hybrid EV
System or turn a jacked-up wheel whenthe vehicle is jacked up. The tyre in con-
tact with the ground may turn and the ve- hicle may come off the jack, possibly lead-
ing to an accident. Besides, do not touch
the high-voltage area.Battery save switch

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.

NOTElThe chocks shown in the illustration do not
come with your vehicle. It is recommended
that you keep one in the vehicle for use if needed.
l If chocks are not available, use stones or any
other objects that are large enough to hold the wheel in position.
6. Get the jack, jack bar and wheel nut
wrench ready.
Refer to “Tools and jack” on page 9-06.
To change a tyre
E00803202064
1. On vehicles with wheel covers, first re-
move the covers (refer to “Wheel cov-ers” on page 9-17).
Then loosen the wheel nuts a quarter
turn with the wheel nut wrench. Do not remove the wheel nuts yet.
2. Place the jack under one of the jacking
points (A) shown in the illustration. Use
the jacking point closest to the tyre you wish to change.WARNINGl Set the jack only at the positions shown
here. If the jack is set at a wrong position, it could dent your vehicle or the jack
might fall over and cause personal injury.
l Do not use the jack on a tilted or soft sur-
face.
Otherwise, the jack might slip and cause
personal injury. Always use the jack on a flat, hard surface. Before setting the jack, make sure there are no sand or pebbles
under the jack base.3. Rotate the jack by hand until the flange
portion (B) fits in the groove (C) at the
top of the jack.
4. Insert the jack bar (D) into the wheel nut
wrench (E). Then put the end of the jack
bar into the shaft’s jack end, as shown in the illustration.
Slowly rotate the wheel nut wrench until the tyre is raised slightly off the ground
surface.

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.
