If you are going to leave the vehicle unatten-
ded, always switch off the engine and remove the ignition key.NOTEl On a slope, be sure to apply the parking
brake before moving the selector lever to the
“P” (PARK) position. If you move the selec- tor lever to the “P” (PARK) position before applying the parking brake, it may be diffi-
cult to disengage the selector lever from the
“P” (PARK) position when next you drive the vehicle, requiring application of a strong
force to the selector lever to move from the
“P” (PARK) position.When the A/T makes no speed

If the transmission does not change speeds
while driving, or your vehicle does not pick up enough speed when starting on an uphillslope, it may be that there is something un-
usual happening in the transmission, causing a safety device to activate. We recommendyou to have your vehicle checked as soon as
possible. 1. If your vehicle has difficulty moving up-
hill, shift the selector lever into 2nd
gear
of the “Sports mode”.
This method might not work depending
on the transmission malfunction.
2. Once the vehicle is moving on a level
road, move the selector lever back to
“D” (DRIVE).Super select 4WD II (SS4 II)

•Check the brake system and, if neces-
sary, have it serviced.
• Check the engine, transmission, trans-
fer, and differential oil or grease level and turbidity. If the oil or grease is
milky, it indicates water contamina-
tion. Replace it with new oil or grease.
• Grease the propeller shaft.
• Check the inside of the vehicle. If in-
gress of water is found, dry the carpet
etc.
• Inspect the headlamps. If the head-
lamp bulb is flooded with water, we
recommend you to have it drained.Cautions on handling of 4-
wheel drive vehicles E00606800401
Tyres and wheels
Since the driving torque can be applied to the
4 wheels, the performance of the vehicle when operating in 4-wheel drive is greatly af- fected by the condition of the tyres.

Pay close attention to the tyres.
l Install specified tyres on all wheels. Re-
fer to “Tyres and wheels” on page
11-11.
l Be sure to fit all 4 tyres and wheels of
the same size and type.
When replacement of any of the tyres or
wheels is necessary, replace all of them.
l All tyres should be rotated whenever the
wear difference between the front and
rear tyres is recognizable.

Good vehicle performance cannot be expec- ted if there is a difference in wear between
tyres. Refer to “Tyre rotation” on page 10-15.
l Check the tyre inflation pressure regular-
ly.
l If the tyre inflation pressure is inappro-
priate, the transfer gear may make some
noise and shock while changing the drive mode.CAUTIONl Always use tyres of the same size, same
type, and same brand, and which have no wear differences. Using tyres which differ in
size, type, brand or the degree of wear will
cause excessive loading, resulting in possi- ble damage to the drive system.Towing
If towing is necessary, we recommend you to
have it done by your MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or a
commercial tow truck service.
In the following cases, transport the vehicle
using a tow truck.
l The engine runs but the vehicle does not
move or abnormal noise is produced.
l Inspection of the vehicle’s underside re-
veals that oil or some other fluid is leak- ing.
Only when you cannot receive a towing serv- ice from a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point or commercial tow truck
service, tow your vehicle carefully in accord- ance with the instructions given in “Towing”
on page 8-16.Cautions on handling of 4-wheel drive vehicles

Obstacle detection areas
E00615600261
The detection areas of the corner and back
sensors are limited to those shown in the il- lustration. Because the back sensors are built
in the overhanging area of the vehicle (spare
wheel garnish), the sensors are unable to de- tect low or thin obstacles, or obstacles on the
bottom of the spare wheel garnish or the bot- tom of the centre of the rear bumper. Thus,
make sure to check the surroundings as you
operate the vehicle in a safe manner.
Reversing sensor system detec- tion areas
Depending on whether the vehicle is equip-
ped with a towing bar, you can change the re-
versing sensor system between the standard
mode and the towing bar mode. The towing bar mode changes the system to exclude thearea in which the towing bar is mounted from
the detection areas.
Vehicles without a towing bar
The detection areas are within approximately
50 cm (A) from the corner sensors, 150 cm
(B) from the back sensors.
Vehicles with a towing bar
The detection areas are within approximately 50 cm (A) from the corner sensors, 150 cm
(B) from the back sensors. The non-detection areas (C) are within approximately 20 cm (D)
from the bumper.
NOTEl If the rear bumper or the spare wheel garnish
has been exposed to an impact, the corner orback sensors may fail and prevent the sys-
tem from functioning properly. We recom- mend you to have your vehicle inspected.
l The sensors do not detect objects located in
the area directly below or near the bumper. If the height of an object is lower than themounted position of the corner or back sen-
sors, the sensors may not continue detecting
it even if they detected it initially.
For information on how to change the detec-
tion areas, please refer to “Changing the de- tection areas” on page 6-60.
CAUTIONl The reversing sensor system may not operate
properly under the following conditions:
• The sensors or surroundings are covered
with ice, snow, or mud.
• The sensors are frozen.
• The system receives ultrasonic noise from
other sources (the horns of other vehicles, motorcycle engines, brakes, radios, pour-
ing rain, splashing water, tyre chains, etc.).
• The sensors are extremely hot or cold
(while the vehicle is parked for a long pe- riod of time under a blazing sun or in coldweather).

Cargo loadsE00609901224
Cargo loads precautionsCAUTIONl When loading luggage, be careful to the fol-
lowing.
• Stow cargo and luggage in the luggage
compartment whenever possible.
• Distribute cargo or luggage evenly not to
be unbalanced in weight.
• Do not place cargo or luggage on the in-
strument panel.
Also, do not stack up cargo or luggage on the front passenger’s seat or the rear seats.
Having the driver’s vision blocked, and your cargo being thrown inside the cabin
if you suddenly have to brake can cause a
serious accident or injury.
Loading a roof carrier
CAUTIONl Use a roof carrier that properly fits your ve-
hicle.
Do not load luggage directly onto the roof.
For installation, refer to the instruction man-
ual accompanying the roof carrier.Roof carrier mounting brack-
ets*3-door models5-door models
When installing the roof carrier, use the brackets (A). The brackets (A) are located
under each roof drip moulding (B).
NOTEl We recommend you to use a genuine
MITSUBISHI roof carrier, since the brack-
ets to be used have a special shape. For de-
tails, we recommend you to consult a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.Roof carrier precautionCAUTIONl Make sure that the weight of the luggage
does not exceed the allowable roof load.
If the allowable roof load is exceeded, this may cause damage to the vehicle.
The roof load is the total allowable load on
the roof (the weight of the roof carrier plus
the weight of luggage placed on the roof car- rier).
For specific figures, please refer to “Maxi-
mum roof load” on page 11-07 .
l When luggage is loaded onto the vehicle,
please make sure to drive slowly and avoid
excessive manoeuvres such as sudden brak- ing or quick turning.
In addition, place the luggage on the carrier
so that its weight is distributed evenly with the heaviest items on the bottom. Do not load items that are wider than the roof carri-
er.
The additional weight on the roof could raise
the vehicle’s centre of gravity and affect ve- hicle handling characteristics.
As a result, driving errors or emergency ma-
noeuvres could lead to a loss of control and
result in an accident.
l Before driving and after travelling a short
distance, always check the load to make sure it is securely fastened to the roof carrier.
Check periodically during your travel that
the load remains secure.

Operating hints
l Do not let the clutch slip (vehicles with
M/T only) and do not increase the en-
gine speed more than necessary when starting.
l Be sure that the driving speed does not
exceed 100 km/h (62 mph)* for trailer
operation. *: For vehicles with only front seats orvehicles with only front seats and sec-
ond seats (5-door models), 80 km/h
(50 mph) should be applied instead of 100 km/h (62 mph).
It is also recommended that you obey the
local regulations in case driving speed
with a trailer is limited to less than
100 km/h (62 mph).
l To prevent shocks from the overrun
brake, depress the brake pedal lightly at first and then more strongly.
l To make full use of engine braking,
change to a lower gear before descend-
ing a slope.
Additional precautions for vehi-
cles equipped with A/T
The 2nd
gear (in sports mode) is recommen-
ded on slopes or at low speed. Use the
1 st
gear (in sports mode) in mountainous
areas in order to make better use of engine braking and to assist the brake system. How-
ever, be sure that the speed does not exceed the maximum speed limit for the selected
gear.
