4-wheel drive operation
Features and controls 5-89
5
When turning a sharp corner in “4WD LOCK” (Electronically
controlled 4WD) or
“LOCK” (S-AWC) position at low speed, a
slight difference in
steering may be experi-
enced similar to feeling as if the brakes wereapplied. This is called tight corner braking and results from each of the four tires being at a different distance from the corner. The phe-nomenon is typical of 4-wheel drive vehicles. If this occurs, either straighten out the steer- ing wheel or change to another mode. Set the drive mode-selector to “4WD AUTO”, “4WD LOCK” (Electronically con- trolled 4WD) or “SNOW” (S-AWC) in accor- dance with the road conditions, and thengradually depress the ac
celerator pedal for a
smooth start.
WA R N I N G Do not over-rely on th
e 4-wheel drive vehi-
cles. Even 4-wheel drive vehicles have lim-its to the system and ability to maintaincontrol and traction.
Reckless driving may
lead to accidents. Always drive carefully, taking account of the road conditions. Improperly operating
this vehicle on or
off-pavement can cause an accident orrollover in which you
and your passengers
could be seriously
injured or killed.
• Follow all instructions and guidelines in the owner’s manual.• Keep your speed low and do not drivefaster than conditions.NOTE
 Driving on rough roads can be hard on a vehicle. Before you le
ave the pavement, be
sure all scheduled ma
intenance and service
has been done, and that
you have inspected
your vehicle. Pay spec
ial attention to the
condition of the ti
res, and check the tire pres-
sures.  Mitsubishi Motors is not responsible to the operator for any damage or injury caused or liability incurred by improper and negligent operation of a vehicl
e. All techniques of
vehicle operation depend on the skill and experience of the opera
tor and other partici-
pating parties. Any de
viation from the rec-
ommended operating instru
ctions above is at
their own risk.
 Note that the stopping distance required of the 4-wheel drive vehicl
e differs very little
from that of the front-wheel drive vehicle.When driving on a snow-covered road or a slippery, muddy surface,
make sure that you
keep a sufficient dist
ance between your vehi-
cle and the one ahead of you.  The driving posture should be more upright; adjust the seat to a good position for easy steering and pedal operati
on. Be sure to wear
the seat belt.  After driving on rough roads, check each part of the vehicle and wash it thoroughlywith water. Refer to the “Inspection and maintenance following rough road opera- tion” section and “Vehic
le care and Mainte-
nance” sections.CAUTION Setting the drive mode-selector to “4WD LOCK” (Electronically
controlled 4WD) or
“LOCK” (S-AWC) position to drive on dry paved road will increa
se fuel consumption,
with possible noise generation.
