It is very importa
nt to know how much
weight your vehicle can carry. This weight is called the vehicle capacity weight andincludes the weight of
all occupants, cargo,
non-factory-installed options, if any, being towed. The tire and load
ing information plac-
ard located on the driver’s door sill of your vehicle will show how
much weight it may
properly carry. It is important to fami
liarize yourself with the
following terms before loading your vehicle:
 Vehicle maximum load on the tire: load on an individual tire th
at is determined by
distributing to each ax
le its share of the
maximum loaded vehicle weight and dividing by two. Vehicle normal load on the tire: load on an individual tire that is
determined by dis-
tributing to each axle its share of the curbweight, accessory
weight, and normal
occupant weight and dividing by two.  Maximum loaded vehicle weight: the sum of - (a) Curb weight;(b) Accessory weight; (c) Vehicle capacity weight; and (d) Production options weight. Curb weight: the weight of a motor vehi- cle with standard equipment including the maximum capacity of
fuel, oil, and cool-
ant.  Accessory weight: the combined weight (in excess of those standard items whichmay be replaced) of automatic transmis- sion, power steering
, power brakes, power
windows, power seats,
radio, and heater,
to the extent that these items are available as factory- installe
d equipment (whether
installed or not). Vehicle capacity weight: the rated cargo and luggage load plus 150 lbs (68 kg)
*
times the vehicle’s designated seatingcapacity.
WA R N I N G Leaving the engine ru
nning risks injury or
death from accidentally moving the gear-shift lever (manual transaxle) or the selec-tor lever (CVT) or from the accumulation of toxic exhaust fumes in the passenger compartment.
Where you park
WA R N I N G Do not park your vehicle in areas where combustible materials such as dry grass orleaves can come in
contact with a hot
exhaust, since a fire could occur.
Do not keep the steering wheel fully turned for a long time
When leaving the vehicle Loading information
WA R N I N G Never overload your ve
hicle. Overloading
can damage your vehicl
e, adversely affect
vehicle performance, including handlingand braking, cause tire failure, and result in an accident.

N00836300233
If your vehicle breaks down on the road, move to the shoulder and turn on the hazard warning flashers. If there is no shoulder, orthe shoulder is not safe, drive in the right lane slowly with the haza
rd lights flashing until
you come to a safe stopping place. Keep theflashers flashing. If the engine stops, there will be no power assist to the steering and brakes, making these difficult to use.  The brake booster will not work, so the brakes will not grip well. The brake pedal will be harder to press than usual.  Since there is no power steering assist, the steering wheel will be hard to turn.
Get help from your passengers, bystanders, etc. to push the vehicle
and move it to a safe
area.

If the engine cannot be started because the battery is weak or de
ad, you can start it with
the battery from anothe
r vehicle using jumper
cables. 1. Take off any metal jewelry such as watch bands or bracelets th
at might create an
accidental electrical contact. 2. Position the vehi
cles close enough
together so that the jumper cables canreach, but be sure the vehicles aren’t touching each other.
3. You could be injured if the vehicles move. Set the parking brake firmly on each vehi- cle. Put an automatic transaxle or CVT in “P” (PARK) or a manual transaxle in “N”(Neutral). 4. Turn the ignition switch to the “OFF”OFF. 5. Make sure your battery electrolyte is at the proper level. (Refer to “Battery” on page 9-10.)

injury or death and
can damage the vehicle.NOTE
 Do not use jumper cables if they have dam- age or corrosion.
CAUTION Check the other vehicle.
It must have a 12-
volt battery. If the other system isn’t 12-volt,both systems can be damaged.NOTE
 Turn off all lights, heat
er, and othe
r electrical
loads. This will avoid sparks and help save both batteries.WA R N I N G If the electrolyte fluid is not visible, or looks frozen, DO NOT ATTEMPT JUMPSTARTING!! The battery might spli
t open or explode if
the temperature is below the freezingpoint or if it is not filled to the proper level.

Spare tire information Compact spare tire
WA R N I N G Tires, including spar
e tire, degrade over
time with age even when they are notbeing used. It is recommended that tires over 6 years generally
be replaced even if
damage is not obvious.
CAUTION While the compact spare tire is stowed, the inflation pressure shoul
d be checked at least
once a month to assure that it remains at therecommended inflation pressure. See the tire and loading informati
on placard attached to
the driver’s door sill. Refer to “Tire and load-ing information placard” on page 11-3. Driving with an imprope
rly inflated tire can
cause an accident. If
you have no choice but
to drive with an under-inflated tire, keep your speed down and av
oid sudden steering
or braking, if possible. Inflate the tire to the correct pressure as soon as possible. Refer to “Tire inflation pressures” on page 9-15. The compact spare tire should be used only temporarily. While th
e compact spare tire is
being used, the tire pr
essure monitoring sys-
tem will not function
properly. Have the tire
replaced or repaired at an authorizedMitsubishi Motors dealer
or a repair facility
of your choice as soon as possible. Do not go over 50 mph (80 km/h) when driv- ing with the compact spare tire. Avoid sudden starting and braking when driving with the compact spare tire. Do not drive through automatic car washes and over obstacles that
could possibly dam-
age the underside of your vehicle. Becausethe compact spare tire is smaller than the original tire, there is less clearance between the ground and your vehicle.
 Because the compact spare tire is designed only for your vehicle, do not use it on anyother vehicle. Do not put the compact spare tire on a differ- ent wheel, and do not put standard tires,snow tires, wheel covers
or trim rings on the
compact spare wheel. Otherwise, you could damage these parts or other parts on yourvehicle. Do not use tire chains with your compact spare tire. Using a chain could cause damage to your vehicle and loss of the chains.
