Tyre rotation
E01001901317
Tyre wear varies with vehicle conditions,
road surface conditions and individual driv-
er’s driving habits. To equalize the wear and help extend tyre life, it is recommended to ro-
tate the tyres immediately after discovery of abnormal wear, or whenever the wear differ-
ence between the front and rear tyres is rec-
ognizable.
When rotating tyres, check for uneven wear and damage. Abnormal wear is usually
caused by incorrect tyre pressure, improper wheel alignment, out of balance wheel, or se-vere braking. We recommend you to have it
checked to determine the cause of irregular tread wear.
*- If the spare tyre wheel differs from thestandard tyre wheel, do not perform tyre rota-
tion using a spare wheel.
CAUTIONl A temporary spare tyre can be fitted tempo-
rarily in place of a tyre that has been re-
moved during the tyre rotation. However, it must not be included in the regular tyre rota-
tion sequence.
l If the tyres have arrows (A) indicating the
correct direction of rotation, swap the front
and rear tyres on the left-hand side of the ve- hicle and the front and rear tyres on the right-hand side of the vehicle separately. Keep each tyre on its original side of the ve-
hicle. When fitting the tyres, make sure the
arrows point in the direction in which the wheels will turn when the vehicle moves forward. Any tyre whose arrow points in the
wrong direction will not perform to its full potential.Front

CAUTIONlAvoid the combined use of different types of
tyres.
Using different types of tyres can affect ve-
hicle performance and safety.Snow tyres
E01002001852
The use of snow tyres is recommended for
driving on snow and ice. To preserve driving stability, mount snow tyres of the same size and tread pattern on all 4 wheels.
A snow tyre that is worn down more than
50% is no longer appropriate to use.
Snow tyres which do not meet specifications must not be used.
CAUTIONl Observe permissible maximum speed for
your snow tyres and the legal speed limit.
l As your vehicle is equipped with a tyre pres-
sure monitoring system, only MITSUBISHI
MOTORS genuine wheels should be used.
Use of another type of wheel risks air leaks and sensor damage, as it will not be possible
to install the tyre inflation pressure sensors
properly.
Refer to “Tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS)*” on page 6-59.NOTEl The laws and regulations concerning snow
tyres (driving speed, required use, type, etc.)
vary. Find out and follow the laws and regu- lations in the area you intend to drive.
l If flange nuts are used on your vehicle,
change to tapered nuts when steel wheels are used.Tyre chains
E01002103121
If tyre chains have to be used, ensure that
they are fitted only on the drive wheels
(front) in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
On 4WD vehicles in which the driving power
is distributed preferentially to the front wheels, ensure that the tyre chains are fitted on the front.
Use only tyre chains which are designed for use with the tyres mounted on the vehicle: use of the incorrect size or type of chain
could result in damage to the vehicle body.
Contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point before putting on tyre chains. The max. chain height is as follows.
Tyre sizeWheel sizeMax. chain

215/65R1616 x 6 1/2 J

215/60R1717 x 6 1/2 J225/55R18 *18 x 7 J*
: Except for vehicles for Russia, Kazakh-
stan and UkraineCAUTIONl For vehicles for Russia, Kazakhstan and Uk-
raine that are equipped with the 18 inch tyre, chains cannot be used. There is an insuffi-
cient gap between the chains and the body, so the vehicle could be damaged.
When driving with tyre chains on the tyres,
do not drive faster than 50 km/h (30 mph) .
When you reach roads that are not covered in snow, immediately remove the tyre chains.
CAUTIONl Practice fitting the chains before you need
them. Don’t expect help from other people
in the cold.
l Choose a clear straight stretch of road where
you can pull over and still be seen while you are fitting the chains.
