15. Check and adjust the tyre pressure with
reference to the air pressure gauge on thecompressor. If you overinflate the tyre,release air by loosening the hose’s end fit-ting.If there is a gap between the tyre andwheel because the tyre has moved inwardfrom the wheel rim, press the periphery ofthe tyre towards the wheel to close the gapbefore running the compressor. (With nogaps, the tyre pressure will rise.)
16. Turn OFF the compressor switch, then
pull the power cord plug out of the socket.
17. Affix the speed restriction sticker (R) to
the three-diamond mark on the steeringwheel.
zAny sand or dust sucked into the compressorcould make the compressor break down. Donot place the compressor directly on anysandy or dusty surface when using it.zDo not disassemble or
modify the compres-
sor. Also, do not subject the air pressuregauge to shock. It
could malfunction.
CAUTIONzBe careful not to get your fingers trappedbetween the tyre and wheel as the tyreinflates.zThe surface of the compressor will get hotwhile the compressor is running. Do notkeep the compressor running continuouslyfor more than 10 minutes. After using thecompressor, wait for the compressor to coolbefore using it again.CAUTION
zIf the compressor becomes sluggish or hotwhile operating, it is overheating. Immedi-ately place the switch in the OFF positionand let the compressor cool down for at least30 minutes.NOTE
zIf the tyre pressure does not rise to the speci-fied level within 10 minutes, the tyre may beso severely damaged that the tyre sealantcannot be used to effect an emergency repair.Please contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORSAuthorised Service Poin
t or another special-
ist in this event.NOTE
zSimply putting sealant and air into the tyreusing the tyre repair kit does not seal thepuncture hole. Air will leak through thepuncture hole until the emergency repair pro-cedure is completed (through step 19 or step20 of these instructions).CAUTION
CAUTIONzDo not affix the sticker anywhere except thespecified position on the pad of the steeringwheel. Affixing the sticker in an incorrectposition could prevent the SRS airbag fromworking normally.

It is recommended that snow chains are car-ried in snow regions and fitted when requiredto the front wheels in accardance with themanufacture’s instructions.On 4WD vehicles in which the driving poweris distributed preferentially to the frontwheels, ensure that the tyre chains are fittedon the front.The tyres fitted to your vehicle as originalequipment allow you to fit tyre chains if theyare required. When replacing your tyres,check with the tyre distributor or manufac-turer if the fitting of tyre chains will be detri-mental to the tyres being purchased.
