If the warning lamp illuminateswhile driving
E00607300416
If only the ABS warning lamp illuminates
l Avoid hard braking and high-speed driv-
ing. Stop the vehicle in a safe place.
Restart the engine and check to see whether the lamp goes out after a few
minutes driving; if it then remains off during driving, there is no problem.
However, if the lamp does not go out, or if it lights up again when the vehicle is
driven, we recommend you to have the
vehicle checked as soon as possible.
l The ABS warning lamp can illuminate if
the battery voltage is insufficient when the engine is started. In this case, it doesnot indicate an ABS fault.
Charge the battery by allowing the en- gine to idle for a while.
If the battery has been charged but the
ABS warning lamp continues to illumi-
nate or illuminates intermittently, we recommend you to have the vehicle in-
spected.
If the ABS warning lamp and
brake warning lamp illuminate
at the same time
l The ABS and brake force distribution
function will not work, so hard braking
could make the vehicle unstable.
Avoid hard braking and high-speed driv- ing. Stop the vehicle in a safe place and we recommend you to have it checked.
Inspection following snowy
road operation
E00618300012
After driving on snowy roads, remove any snow and ice which may have become ad-
hered to the wheel areas.
When doing this, be careful not to damage the wheel speed sensors (A) and cables loca-ted at each wheel on vehicles equipped with
an ABS.

Power steering system
E00607401528
The power steering system operates while the
engine is running. It helps reduce the effort needed to turn the steering wheel.
The power steering system has mechanical
steering capability in case the power assist is lost. If the power assist is lost for some rea-
son, you will still be able to steer your vehi-
cle, but you will notice it takes much more effort to steer. If this happens, have your ve-
hicle inspected at a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.
WARNINGl Do not stop the engine while the vehicle is
moving. Stopping the engine would make the steering wheel extremely hard to turn,
possibly resulting in an accident.

NOTElIf the rear bumper or the spare wheel garnish
has been exposed to an impact, the corner orback sensors may fail and prevent the sys-
tem from functioning properly. We recom- mend you to have your vehicle inspected.
l The sensors do not detect objects located in
the area directly below or near the bumper. If the height of an object is lower than themounted position of the corner or back sen-
sors, the sensors may not continue detecting
it even if they detected it initially.
For information on how to change the detec-
tion areas, please refer to “Changing the de- tection areas” on page 6-56.
CAUTIONl The reversing sensor system may not operate
properly under the following conditions:
• The sensors or surroundings are covered
with ice, snow, or mud.
• The sensors are frozen.
• The system receives ultrasonic noise from
other sources (the horns of other vehicles, motorcycle engines, brakes, radios, pour-
ing rain, splashing water, tyre chains, etc.).
• The sensors are extremely hot or cold
(while the vehicle is parked for a long pe- riod of time under a blazing sun or in coldweather).
• The vehicle tilts significantly.CAUTION•The vehicle is driven on a rough road
(with a bumpy, gravel, hilly, or grassy surface).
• The vehicle is too close to an obstacle.
• The sensors or surroundings have been
wiped by hand, or stickers or accessorieshave been attached.
l The reversing sensor system may not proper-
ly detect the following:
• Objects that are thin, such as wire nets or
ropes.
• Objects that absorb sound waves, such as
snow.
• Objects that are shaped with a sharp an-
gle.
• Objects with a smooth surface, such as
glass.
• Objects that are low, such as kerbstones.NOTEl The buzzer may sound lower than the nor-
mal warning sound when the reversing sen-sor system is receiving ultrasonic noise from
other sources, but this is not a malfunction.
The buzzer will stop sounding and the sys- tem will return to normal operation after thenoise is no longer received.To operate
E00615702035
To operate the system, move the selector lev-
er to the “R” (REVERSE) position while the
ignition switch is in the “ON” position. To
stop the operation, push the “SONAR” switch.

CAUTION•Maintain a distance of approx. 50 cm
or
more between the vehicle body and the washing nozzle.
• When washing around the door glass,
hold the nozzle at a distance of more than
50 cm and at right angles to the glass sur- face.
l After washing the vehicle, drive the vehicle
slowly while lightly depressing the brake
pedal several times in order to dry out the
brakes.
Leaving the brakes wet could result in re- duced braking performance. Also, there is a
possibility that they could freeze up or be- come inoperative due to rust, rendering the vehicle unable to move.
l When using an automatic car wash, pay at-
tention to the following items, referring to the operation manual or consulting a car
wash operator. If the following procedure is not followed, it could result in damage to
your vehicle.
• The outside mirrors are retracted.
• The wiper arm assembly is taped.
• If your vehicle is equipped with a rear de-
flector or roof rails, consult a car wash operator before using the car wash.
• If your vehicle has a rain sensor, place the
wiper switch lever in the “OFF” position to deactivate the rain sensor.During cold weather
Salt and other chemicals spread on the roads
in some areas in winter can have a harmful effect on the vehicle body. You should there-
fore wash the vehicle as often as possible in accordance with our care-instructions. It is
recommended to have a preservative applied
and the underfloor protection checked before and after the cold weather season.
After washing your vehicle, wipe off all wa- terdrops from the rubber parts around the
doors to prevent the doors from freezing.
NOTEl To prevent freezing of the weatherstripping
on the doors, bonnet, etc., they should be treated with silicone spray.Waxing
E00901000560
Waxing the vehicle will help prevent the ad-
herence of dust and road chemicals to the paintwork. Apply a wax solution after wash- ing the vehicle, or at least once every three
months to assist displacing of water.
Do not wax your vehicle in direct sunlight.
You should wax after the surfaces have
cooled.
CAUTIONl Waxes containing high abrasive compounds
should not be used. Such waxes remove rust and stains effectively from the paintwork but
they are harmful to the lustre on the painted
surface and the plated surface.
Further, they are harmful to glossy surfaces such as grille, garnish, mouldings, etc.
l Do not use petrol or paint thinners to remove
road tar or other contamination to the vehi-
cle surface.
l Do not apply wax on the areas having black
mat coating as it can cause uneven discolou-
ration, patches, blurs, etc. If stained with wax, immediately wipe off with a piece of
soft cloth and warm water.
l On vehicles with a sunroof, be careful when
waxing the area around the sunroof opening, not to put any wax on the weatherstrip
(black rubber). If stained with wax, the weatherstrip cannot maintain a weatherproof
seal with the sunroof.Polishing
E00901100024
The vehicle should only be polished if the
paintwork has become stained or lost its lus- tre. Matt-finish parts and plastic bumpers
must not be polished, polishing these parts will stain them or damage their finish.

Replacing tyres and wheels
E01007201530
CAUTIONlAvoid using different size tyres from the one
listed and the combined use of different
types of tyres, as this can affect driving safe- ty.
Refer to “Tyres and wheels” on page
11-11.
l Even if a wheel has the same rim size and
offset as the specified type of wheel, its
shape may prevent it from being fitted cor- rectly. We recommend you to consult a spe-
cialist before using wheels that you have.
l If your vehicle is equipped with a tyre pres-
sure monitoring system, only MITSUBISHI
MOTORS genuine wheels should be used.
Use of another type of wheel risks air leaks and sensor damage, as it will not be possible
to install the tyre pressure sensor properly.
Refer to “Tyre pressure monitoring system
(TPMS)” on page 6-48.
Wheel balance
On vehicles equipped with 17x7 1/2J size
aluminium wheels (round rim type), if you
need to balance a wheel, put the balance weight (A) on the specified position which is
spoke side from the notch (B) on the inner surface of the wheel.
There is a possibility that the balance weight
is interfered the related brake part if it is put
any place other than the specified position.
For details, we recommend you to consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point.Tyre rotation
E01001901203
Tyre wear varies with vehicle conditions,
road surface conditions and individual driv- er’s driving habits. To equalize the wear andhelp extend tyre life, it is recommended to ro-
tate the tyres immediately after discovery of
abnormal wear, or whenever the wear differ- ence between the front and rear tyres is rec-
ognizable.
When rotating tyres, check for uneven wear
and damage. Abnormal wear is usually caused by incorrect tyre pressure, improper wheel alignment, out of balance wheel, or se-
vere braking. We recommend you to have it checked to determine the cause of irregular
tread wear.Spare tyre used*Spare tyre not usedTyres that have arrows showing rotation directionFrontFrontFront
