2.Using the jack handle, turn the release
valve (A) clockwise until it stops.
3. Insert the jack handle in the bracket of
the jack and hook the notch (B) on the
jack handle end to the claw (C) of the bracket.
4. Place the jack under one of the jacking
points shown in the illustration. Use the
jacking point closest to the tyre you wish
to change.
D- Front jacking point
E- Rear jacking point
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.
5. Move the jack handle up and down to
raise the ram until just before the jack contacts the jacking point of the vehicle.
Ensure that the jack will properly con- tact the vehicle jacking point.
NOTEl This jack is a 3 stage expansion type.
6.
Raise the vehicle until the tyre is slightly
off the ground.
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.

WARNINGlDo not bump the raised vehicle or leave it
sitting on the jack for a long time. Bothare 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 or run the engine while your
vehicle is on the jack.
l Do not turn the raised wheel. The tyres
still on the ground could turn and make your vehicle fall off the jack.
7. 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.
8. 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 spare wheel.
WARNINGl Mount the spare wheel with the valve
stem (I) facing outboard. If you cannot see
the valve stem, you have installed the wheel backwards.
Operating the vehicle with the spare
wheel installed backwards can cause vehi-
cle damage and result in an accident.
9. Finger-tighten the wheel nuts. (Turn
them clockwise.)
Tighten the wheel nuts (flange nuts) un-
til their flange section comes in contact
with the wheel and is no longer loose.CAUTIONl Never apply oil to either the wheel bolts or
the nuts, or they will tighten too much.
10. Put the notch (J) provided on the jack
handle end on the valve (K) of the jack.

Using the jack handle, turn the releasevalve anticlockwise slowly to lower thevehicle until the tyre touches the ground.WARNINGl Be sure to open the release valve slowly. If
it is opened quickly, the vehicle will drop
abruptly and the jack may come out of
position, causing a serious accident.
11. Tighten the nuts crisscross in 2 or 3
steps until each nut has been tightened
securely.

Tightening torque
105 to 125 N•m
(Achieved by applying a force of 390
to 460 N at the end of the wheel nut wrench supplied with the vehicle.)CAUTIONl Never use your foot or a pipe extension for
extra force in the wheel nut wrench. If you
do so, you will tighten the nut too much.
12. Lower the jack all the way and remove
it.
CAUTIONl If the release valve is loosened too much (2
or more turns) in the anticlockwise direction, the jack’s oil will leak and the jack cannotbe used.CAUTIONl Close the release valve slowly when lower-
ing the vehicle, or the valve may be dam-
aged.NOTEl Occasionally when the vehicle is jacked up,
the grooved portion of the designated pointwill not come off. When this happens, rock
the vehicle to lower the ram.
l If the jack is difficult to remove by hand, in-
sert the jack handle (L) into the bracket (M).Then using the handle, remove the jack.
13. Press the piston down all the way, and
turn the release valve clockwise as far as possible.

14.Check your tyre inflation pressure at the
next gasstation. The correct pressures
are shown on the driver’s door label. See the illustration.
15. On vehicles with tyre pressure monitor-
ing system (TPMS), after filling your tyres to the correct pressure, reset the tyre pressure monitoring system(TPMS).
Refer to “Tyre pressure monitoring sys-
tem (TPMS): Reset of low tyre pressure
warning threshold” on page 6-51.
CAUTIONl After changing the tyre and driving the vehi-
cle about 1,000 km (620 miles), retighten the
wheel nuts to make sure that they have not come loose.
l If the steering wheel vibrates when driving
after changing the tyre, we recommend you to have the tyres checked for balance.CAUTIONl Do not mix one type of tyre with another or
use a different size from the one listed. This
would cause early wear and poor handling.To store the flat tyre or spare
tyre
E00803400192
1. Attach the wheel to the spare wheel
hanger (A) while aligning the holes in
the wheel with the bolts on the spare
wheel hanger.
Using the wheel nut wrench, tighten the spare wheel bolts firmly.

Tightening torque
37 to 54 Nm
(Achieved by applying a force of 140 to
200 N at the end of the wheel nut wrench supplied with the vehicle.)
2. Reverse the opening procedure when
closing the spare wheel garnish.

Tightening torque for spare wheel gar- nish mounting bolt
11 to 25 Nm
(Achieved by applying a force of 40 to
92 N at the end of the wheel nut wrench supplied with the vehicle.)CAUTIONl The spare wheel should always be secured
during vehicle operation. If a flat tyre is changed, put the flat tyre in the spare wheel
mounting position, and use the wheel nut
wrench to secure it firmly.NOTEl Have your damaged tyre repaired as soon as
possible.

NOTElSecure the tow rope to the same side towing
hook, to keep the tow rope as straight as pos-
sible.
2. Keep the engine running.
If the engine is not running, turn the ig-
nition switch to the “ACC” or “ON” po- sition to unlock the steering wheel.
CAUTIONl When the engine is not running, the brake
booster and power steering pump do not op- erate. This means higher brake depression
force and higher steering effort are required. Therefore, vehicle operation is more difficult
than usual.
l Do not leave the key in the “LOCK” posi-
tion. The steering wheel will lock, causing
loss of control.
3. Place the selector lever in the “N”
(NEUTRAL) position.
4. Shift the transfer shift lever to “2H” po-
sition.
5. Turn on the hazard warning lamps if re-
quired by law. (Follow the local driving
laws and regulations.)
6. During towing make sure that close con-
tact is maintained between the drivers of
both vehicles, and that the vehicles trav- el at low speed.
CAUTIONl Avoid sudden braking, sudden acceleration
and sharp turning; such operation could
cause damage to the towing hooks or the tow
rope.
People in the vicinity could be injured as a
result.
l When towing or being towed down a long
slope, the brakes may overheat reducing the effectiveness. In this situation, have your ve-hicle transported by a tow truck.
l When the vehicle is to be towed by another
vehicle with all the wheels on the ground,make sure that the towing speed and dis-
tance given below are never exceeded,
avoiding damage to the transmission.

Petrol-powered vehicles
Towing speed: 50 km/h (31 mph)
Towing distance: 50 km (31 miles)

Diesel-powered vehicles
Towing speed: 30 km/h (19 mph)
Towing distance: 80 km (50 miles)

For the towing speed and the towing dis- tance, follow the local driving laws and reg- ulations.If your vehicle tows another ve-
hicle
Only use the rear towing hook as shown in
the illustration. Secure the tow rope to the rear towing hook.
CAUTIONl When you are going to tow another vehicle,
move the transfer shift lever to “4H” posi-
tion.
Selecting “2H” drive may increase the dif- ferential oil temperature, resulting in possi-
ble 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.
Towing
8-18OVWX17E1For emergencies8

NOTElDo not tow a vehicle heavier than your own
vehicle.Operation under adverse
driving conditions E00801704160
If your vehicle becomes stuck
in sand, mud or snow
If the vehicle becomes stuck in snow, sand,
or mud, it can often be moved with a rocking
motion. Move the selector lever alternately
between the Sports mode and “R” (RE- VERSE) position, while applying slight pres-sure to the accelerator pedal.
Avoid racing the engine or spinning the
wheels. Prolonged efforts to free a stuck ve-hicle may result in overheating, transmission
and drivetrain failure. Allow the engine to idle for a few minutes to let the transmissioncool between rocking attempts.
If the vehicle remains stuck after several rocking attempts, seek other assistance.WARNINGl When attempting to rock your vehicle out
of a stuck position, be sure that the area around the vehicle is clear of people and
physical objects. The rocking motion may cause the vehicle to suddenly launch for-ward or backward, causing injury or
damage to nearby people or objects.
On a flooded road
l Avoid flooded roads. In the event driv-
ing flooded roads, doing so may causethe following serious damage to the ve-
hicle. • Engine stalling
• Short in electrical components
• Engine damage caused by water im-
mersion
After driving on flooded roads, be sure
to have an inspection at an Authorized MITSUBISHI MOTORS dealer and takethe necessary measures or repair.
l When driving in rain, or water-covered
roads, or through a car wash, water could enter the brake discs, resulting in
temporarily ineffective brakes.
In such cases, lightly depress the brake
pedal to see if the brakes operate proper- ly. If they do not, lightly depress the pedal several times while driving in or-
der to dry the brake pads.
l When driving in rain or on a road with
many puddles a layer of water may form
between the tyres and the road surface.
This reduces a tyre’s frictional resistance
on the road, resulting in loss of steering
stability and braking capability.

To cope with this, observe the following items: (a)Drive your vehicle at slow
speed. (b)Do not drive on worn tyres. (c)Always maintain the specified
tyre inflation pressures.
On a snow-covered or frozen
road
l When driving on a snow-covered or fro-
zen road, it is recommended that you use snow tyres or tyre chains.
