WARNINGl Using the tyre repair kit may damage the
wheel and/or the tyre inflation pressure
sensor for the tyre.
The vehicle must promptly be inspected and repaired by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point after
using the tyre repair kit.CAUTIONl The tyre sealant can cause health damage if
swallowed. If you accidentally swallow it,
drink as much water as possible and imme-
diately consult a doctor.
l If the tyre sealant gets in your eyes or on
your skin, rinse with lots of water. If you still sense an abnormality, consult a doctor.
l Consult a doctor immediately if any allergic
reactions occur.
l Do not allow children to touch the tyre seal-
ant.
l Do not breathe in the vapours of tyre sealant.
l Be sure to use a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS
GENUINE tyre sealant.NOTEl The tyre sealant cannot be used in any of the
situations listed below. If any of these situa-
tions occurs, please contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or an-
other specialist.
• The tyre sealant’s expiry date has passed.
(The expiry date is shown on the bottle la- bel.)
• More than one tyre is punctured.
• The puncture hole has a length or width of
4 mm or more.

NOTE•The tyre is punctured in the side wall (A),
not in the tread (B).
• The vehicle has been driven with the tyre
almost completely flat.
• The tyre has completely slipped over the
wheel rim and has come off the wheel.
• The wheel is damaged.
l Use the tyre sealant only at ambient temper-
atures of -30 °C to + 60 °C.
l Effect an emergency repair without pulling
out the object (nail, screw, etc.) that is stuck
in the tyre.
l Do not use the tyre sealant if the tyre has
been damaged by being driven when insuffi- ciently inflated (e.g. bumps, cuts, cracks etc.
on the tyre).
l Wipe tyre sealant off the paintwork immedi-
ately with a damp cloth.
l Immediately wash clothes contaminated
with tyre sealant.
Before repairing a tyre, first stop your vehicle
in a safe, flat location.
1. Park the vehicle on level and stable
ground.
2. Set the parking brake firmly.
3. Put the select position in “P” (PARK)
position and stop the Plug-in Hybrid EV
system.
4. Turn on the hazard warning flashers and
set up a warning triangle, flashing signal
lamp, etc., at an adequate distance from
the vehicle, and have all your passengers
leave the vehicle.
5. Take out the tyre repair kit.
6. Take the valve cap (C) off the tyre valve
(D), then press the valve remover (E)
onto the valve as illustrated. Allow all of the air in the tyre to escape.
7. Remove the valve insert (F) by turning it
anticlockwise using the valve remover (E). Put the removed valve insert in a
clean place so it does not get dirty.
CAUTIONl If there is any air left in the tyre when you
remove the valve insert, the valve insert may
fly out and injure you. Make sure the tyre
contains no air before removing the valve in- sert.
8. Shake the tyre sealant bottle well.

12.After injecting the sealant, securely fit
the valve remover (E) into the end of the filler hose (J) to prevent sealant from
leaking from the empty bottle.
13. Pull out the compressor hose (K) from
the side of the tyre compressor, and then
securely attach the hose to the tyre valve (D).
14. Place the compressor (L) with its air
pressure gauge (M) on top.
Pull out the compressor’s power cord
(N), insert the plug on the cord into the accessory socket (O), and then put the
operation mode of the power switch in ACC. (Refer to “Accessory socket” on
page 8-75.)
Turn ON the compressor switch (P) and inflate the tyre to the specified pressure.
(Refer to “Tyre inflation pressures” on page 11-10.)CAUTIONl The supplied compressor is designed only
for inflation of your vehicle tyres.
l The compressor is designed to run on a vehi-
cle’s 12 V power supply. Do not connect itto any other power source.
l The compressor is not waterproof. If you use
it in rain, make sure water does not get on it.
l Any sand or dust sucked into the compressor
could make the compressor break down. Do not place the compressor directly on anysandy or dusty surface when using it.
l Do not disassemble or modify the compres-
sor. Also, do not subject the air pressure
gauge to shock. It could malfunction.
15. Check and adjust the tyre pressure with
reference to the air pressure gauge on the
compressor. If you overinflate the tyre, release air by loosening the hose’s end
fitting.
If there is a gap between the tyre and
wheel because the tyre has moved in-
ward from the wheel rim, press the pe- riphery of the tyre towards the wheel to
close the gap before running the com- pressor. (With no gaps, the tyre pressure
will rise.)

CAUTIONlBe careful not to get your fingers trapped be-
tween the tyre and wheel as the tyre inflates.
l The surface of the compressor will get hot
while the compressor is running. Do not
keep the compressor running continuously for more than 10 minutes. After using the compressor, wait for the compressor to cool
before using it again.
l If the compressor becomes sluggish or hot
while operating, it is overheating. Immedi- ately place the switch in the OFF positionand let the compressor cool down for at least30 minutes.NOTEl If the tyre pressure does not rise to the speci-
fied level within 10 minutes, the tyre may be
so severely damaged that the tyre sealant
cannot be used to effect an emergency re- pair. Please contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or an-
other specialist in this event.
16. Turn OFF the compressor switch, then
pull the power cord plug out of the sock- et.
NOTEl Simply putting sealant and air into the tyre
using the tyre repair kit does not seal the
puncture hole. Air will leak through the puncture hole until the emergency repair procedure is completed (through step 19 or
step 20 of these instructions).
17. Affix the speed restriction sticker (Q) to
the three-diamond mark on the steering wheel.
CAUTIONl Do not affix the sticker anywhere except the
specified position on the pad of the steeringwheel. Affixing the sticker in an incorrect
position could prevent the SRS airbag from working normally.18. When you have inflated the tyre to the
specified pressure, stow the compressor,
bottle, and other items in the vehicle and
promptly start driving the vehicle so that the tyre sealant can spread evenly in the
tyre. Drive with great care. Do not ex- ceed a speed of 80 km/h (50 mph). Ob-
serve local speed limits.CAUTIONl If you sense any abnormality while driving,
stop the vehicle and contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or an-
other specialist. Otherwise the tyre pressure
may drop before the emergency repair pro- cedure is completed, rendering the vehicle
unsafe.NOTEl Driving faster than 80 km/h (50 mph)
can
make the vehicle vibrate.
19. After driving for 10 minutes or 5 km ,
check the tyre pressure using the air
pressure gauge on the compressor. If the
tyre pressure has apparently not drop- ped, the emergency repair procedure iscomplete. Continue the process from
step 21.
If the tyre pressure is not sufficient, in- flate the tyre to the specified pressure

3.Put the select position in “P” (PARK)
position and stop the Plug-in Hybrid EV
system.
4. Have all your passengers get out of the
vehicle.
5. To prevent the vehicle from rolling
when jacking up the vehicle, placechocks or blocks (A) at the tyre that is
diagonally opposite from the tyre (B)
you are changing.WARNINGl Be sure to apply chocks or blocks to the
correct tyre when jacking up the vehicle.If the vehicle moves while jacked up, the
jack could slip out of position, leading to
an accident.NOTEl The chocks shown in the illustration do not
come with your vehicle. It is recommended
that you keep one in the vehicle for use if needed.
l If chocks are not available, use stones or any
other objects that are large enough to hold the wheel in position.
6. Get the jack, jack bar and wheel nut
wrench ready.
Refer to “Tools and jack” on page 9-11.
To change a tyre

1. Loosen the wheel nuts a quarter turn
with the wheel nut wrench. Do not re- move the wheel nuts yet.
2. Place the jack under one of the jacking
points (A) shown in the illustration. Use
the jacking point closest to the tyre you
wish to change.WARNINGl Set the jack only at the positions shown
here. If the jack is set at a wrong position, it could dent your vehicle or the jack
might fall over and cause personal injury.
l Do not use the jack on a tilted or soft sur-
face.
Otherwise, the jack might slip and cause
personal injury. Always use the jack on a flat, hard surface. Before setting the jack, make sure there are no sand or pebbles
under the jack base.

3.Rotate the jack by hand until the flange
portion (B) fits in the groove (C) at the
top of the jack.
4. Check that the flange portion at the jack-
ing point fits in the groove at the top of the jack.
Insert the jack bar (D) into the wheel nut
wrench (E). Then put the end of the jack
bar into the shaft’s jack end, as shown in the illustration.
Slowly rotate the wheel nut wrench until
the tyre is raised slightly off the ground
surface.WARNINGl Stop jacking up the vehicle as soon as the
tyre is raised off the ground. It is danger-
ous to raise the vehicle any higher.
l Do not get under your vehicle while using
the jack.
l Do not bump the raised vehicle or leave it
sitting on the jack for a long time. Both are very dangerous.
l Do not use a jack except the one that
came with your vehicle.
l The jack should not be used for any pur-
pose other than to change a tyre.
l No one should be in your vehicle when us-
ing the jack.
l Do not start the Plug-in Hybrid EV sys-
tem while your vehicle is on the jack.WARNINGl Do not turn the raised wheel. The tyres
still on the ground could turn and make
your vehicle fall off the jack.
5. Remove the wheel nuts with the wheel
nut wrench, then take the wheel off.
CAUTIONl Handle the wheel carefully when changing
the tyre, to avoid scratching the wheel sur- face.
6. Clean out any mud, etc. on the hub sur-
face (F), hub bolts (G) or in the installa- tion holes (H) in the wheel, and then
mount the tyre.

WARNINGlMount the wheel with the valve stem (I)
facing outboard. If you cannot see the
valve stem (I), you have installed the wheel backwards.
Operating the vehicle with the wheel in-
stalled backwards can cause vehicle dam- age and result in an accident.
7. Turn the wheel nuts clockwise by hand
to initially tighten them.
Temporarily tighten the wheel nuts by hand until the flange parts of the wheel
nuts make light contact with the wheel
and the wheel is not loose.CAUTIONl Never apply oil to either the wheel bolts or
the nuts, or they will tighten too much.NOTEl If all 4 aluminium wheels are changed to
steel wheels. e. g. when fitting winter tyres,
use tapered nuts.8. Lower the vehicle slowly by rotating the
wheel nut wrench anticlockwise until the
tyre touches the ground.
9. Tighten the nuts in the order shown in
the illustration until each nut has been tightened to the torque listed here.
Tightening torque: 88 to 108 N•m
