SRS warning lamp
E00407801706
There is a Supplemental Restraint System
(“SRS”) warning lamp on the instrument panel. The system checks itself every time the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” po-
sition. The SRS warning lamp will come on
for several seconds and then go out. This is
normal and means the system is working properly. If there is a problem involving one or more of the SRS components, the warning
lamp will come on and stay on.
The SRS warning lamp is shared by the SRS
airbag and the seat belt pretensioner system.
WARNINGl If any of the following conditions occur,
there may be a problem with the SRS air- bags and/or seat belt pretensioners, and they may not function properly in a colli-WARNINGsion or may suddenly activate without a
collision:
• Even when the ignition switch is
in“ON” position, the SRS warning lamp does not come on or it remains
on.
• The SRS warning lamp comes on while
driving.
The SRS airbags and seat belt pretension- ers are designed to help reduce the risk of
serious injury or death in certain colli- sions. If either of the above conditions oc-
curs, immediately have your vehicle checked by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.SRS servicing
E00407901390
WARNINGl We recommend any maintenance per-
formed on or near the components of the
SRS to be performed by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
Improper work on the SRS components
or wiring could result in inadvertent de- ployment of the airbags, or could render
the SRS inoperative; either situation could result in serious injury.WARNINGl Do not modify your steering wheel, seat
belt retractor or any other SRS compo- nents. For example, replacement of the
steering wheel, or modifications to the
front bumper or body structure can ad- versely affect SRS performance and lead
to possible injury.
l If your vehicle has sustained any damage,
we recommend you to have the SRS in- spected to ensure it is in proper workingorder.
l On vehicles equipped with side airbags,
do not modify your front seats, centre pil- lar and centre console.
It can adversely affect SRS performance and lead to possible injury. If you found
any tear, scratch, crack or damage to the
seat fabric near the side airbag, the por-
tion of the front and rear pillars and roof side rail, you should have the SRS inspec- ted by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point.NOTEl When you transfer ownership of the vehicle
to some other person, we urge you to alert
the new owner that it is equipped with the SRS and refer the new owner to the applica- ble section in this owner’s manual.

NOTElThe driving posture should be more upright
and closer to the wheel than usual; adjust the
seat to a good position for easy steering and pedal operation. Be sure to wear the seatbelt.
l After driving on rough roads, check each
part of the vehicle and wash it thoroughlywith water. Refer to the “Vehicle care” sec-
tion and “Inspection and maintenance fol-
lowing rough road operation” on page 6-37.
Driving on dry paved road and
highway
Select the “2H” or “4H” position to drive on
the dry paved road. Especially on dry high- way, never select the “4HLc” or “4LLc” po-sition.
CAUTIONl Selecting the “4HLc” or “4LLc” position to
drive on dry paved road will increase the
fuel consumption with possible noise gener- ation and early tyre wear.
It may also increase the differential oil tem-
perature, resulting in possible damage to the driving system.
Further, the drive train will be subjected to
excessive loading, possibly leading to oil leakage, component seizure, or other serious faults.
Driving on snowy or icy roads
Set the transfer shift lever to the “4H” or
“4HLc” position in accordance with the road conditions, and then gradually depress the ac-
celerator pedal for a smooth start.
NOTEl The use of snow tyres and/or tyre chains is
recommended.
l In order to ensure that the anti-lock brake
system (ABS) will operate correctly in situa-tions where tyre chains have been fitted, drive in the “4H”, “4HLc” or “4LLc” posi-tion.
l Maintain a safe distance between vehicles,
avoid sudden braking, and use engine brak- ing (downshifting).CAUTIONl Avoid sudden braking, sudden acceleration,
and sharp turning; such operations could
cause skidding and spinouts.
Driving on sandy or muddy
roads
Set the transfer shift lever to the “4HLc” or “4LLc” position and then gradually depress
the accelerator pedal for a smooth start. Keep
the pressure on the accelerator pedal as con- stant as possible, and drive at low speed.
CAUTIONl Do not force the vehicle or drive recklessly
on sandy surfaces. In comparison with nor-
mal road surfaces, the engine and other
drive-system components are put under ex- cessive strain when driving on such a sur-
face, and this could lead to accidents.
l If any of following conditions occur while
the vehicle is being driven, immediately park your vehicle in a safe place and follow these procedures:
• The needle in the temperature gauge ap-
proaches the overheating zone.
Refer to “Engine overheating” on page
8-04.

NOTElMITSUBISHI
MOTORS is not responsible
to the operator for any damage or injury caused or liability incurred by improper and negligent operation of a vehicle. All techni-
ques of vehicle operation described herein depend on the skill and experience of the op- erator and other participating parties and any
deviation from the recommended operation
instructions above is at their own risk.
Turning sharp corners
When turning a sharp corner in the “4HLc”
or “4LLc” position at low speed, a slight dif-
ference in steering may be experienced simi- lar to as if the brakes were applied. This is
called tight corner braking and results from each of the 4 tyres being at a different dis-tance from the corner.
The phenomenon is peculiar to 4-wheel drive vehicles. If this occurs, either straighten the steering wheel, or change to rear-wheel drive.
Crossing a stream
4-wheel drive vehicles are not necessarily waterproof. If the electrical circuits become
wet, further operation of the vehicle will be impossible; therefore, avoid crossing streams
unless absolutely necessary. If crossing a
stream is unavoidable, use the following pro- cedure:
1. Check depths of a stream and geographi-
cal features before attempting to cross a
stream and ford the stream where the
water is as shallow as practicable.
2. Cross at a place where the water is less
than 70 cm deep.
3. Set the transfer shift lever to the “4LLc”
position.
4. Drive slowly at a speed of approximate-
ly 5 km/h (3 mph) to avoid splashing too
much water.CAUTIONl Do not attempt to cross a stream at a place
where the water is more than 70 cm deep.
l Cross a stream temporarily for emergencies
and avoid doing so for a long period of time.
l After crossing a stream, apply the brakes to
be sure they are functioning properly. If the
brakes are wet and not functioning properly,
dry them out by driving slowly while lightly
depressing the brake pedal.
Inspect each part of the vehicle carefully.NOTEl Because the inside of the vehicle is flooded
with water when crossing at a place where
the water is more than 50 cm deep, we rec- ommend you to have your vehicle inspected.NOTEl Frequent crossing of streams can adversely
affect the life span of the vehicle; we recom-mend you to take the necessary measures toprepare, inspect, and repair the vehicle.Inspection and maintenance
following rough roadoperation E00606700048
After operating the vehicle in rough road
conditions, be sure to perform the following inspection and maintenance procedures:
l Check that the vehicle has not been dam-
aged by rocks, gravel, etc.
l Carefully wash the vehicle with water.
After washing, drive the vehicle slowly
while lightly depressing the brake pedal in order to dry out the brakes. If the brakes still do not function properly, we
recommend you to have the brakes
checked as soon as possible
l Remove the insects, dried grass, etc.

l After crossing a stream, be sure to have
the following items inspected at a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point and take the necessary
measures.

Tyre pressure monitoring sys-tem warning lamp
E00637200052
When the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position the tyre pressure monitoring system warning lamp normally illuminates
and goes off a few seconds later.

If one or more of the vehicle tyres is signifi- cantly under-inflated, the warning lamp will
remain illuminated while the ignition switch is in ON.
Refer to “If the warning lamp illuminates while driving” on page 6-43 and take the nec-essary measures.
CAUTIONl If the warning lamp does not illuminate
when the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position it means that the tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is not working
properly. Have the system inspected at a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
In such situations, a malfunctioning of the system may be preventing the monitoring of the tyre pressure. Avoid sudden braking,
sharp turning and high-speed driving.
l If a malfunction is detected in the tyre pres-
sure monitoring system (TPMS), the warn-
ing lamp will blink for approximately 1 mi-
nute and then remain continuously illumina- ted.
The warning lamp will issue further warn-
ings each time the engine is restarted as long
as the malfunction exists.
Check to see whether the warning lamp goes
off after few minutes driving.
If it then goes off during driving, there is no problem.
However, if the warning lamp does not go off, or if it blinks again when the engine is
restarted, have the vehicle inspected by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
In such situations, a malfunctioning of the system may be preventing the monitoring of
the tyre pressure. For safety reasons, when the warning lamp appears while driving,
avoid sudden braking, sharp turning and high-speed driving.Each tyre, including the spare, should be
checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by thevehicle manufacturer on the tyre inflation
pressure label. (If your vehicle has tyres of a different size than the size indicated on the
tyre inflation pressure label, you should de-
termine the proper tyre inflation pressure for those tyres.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with the tyre pressure moni-
toring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low
tyre pressure telltale when one or more of
your tyres is significantly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tyre pressure tell-
tale illuminates, you should stop and check your tyres as soon as possible, and inflate
them to the proper pressure. Driving on a sig- nificantly under-inflated tyre causes the tyre to overheat and can lead to tyre failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency
and tyre tread life, and may affect the vehi- cle’s handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the tyre pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) is not a substitute for proper tyre maintenance, and it is the driver’s re-sponsibility to maintain correct tyre pressure,
even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the tyre pres-
sure monitoring system (TPMS) low tyre pressure telltale.
