2018 MITSUBISHI ASX check engine

If one or more of the vehicle tyres (except for the spare tyre) is significantly under-inflated, the warning lamp will remain illuminated
while the ignition switch or the operation mode is in ON.
Refer to “If the warning lamp/display illumi-
nates while driving” on page 6-74 and take
the necessary measurements.NOTEl In addition, the warning display will be dis-
played on the information screen in the mul-
ti-information display.Type 1Type 2CAUTIONl If the warning lamp does not illuminate
when the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position or the operation mode is put
in ON, it means that the tyre pressure moni-
toring system (TPMS) is not working prop- erly. Have the system inspected by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
In such situations, a malfunctioning of the system may prevent the monitoring of the tyre pressure. Avoid sudden braking, sharp
turning and high-speed driving.CAUTIONl If a malfunction is detected in the tyre pres-
sure monitoring system (TPMS), the warn- ing lamp will blink for approximately 1 mi-
nute and then remain continuously illumina-
ted.
The warning lamp will issue further warn- ings each time the engine is restarted as long
as the malfunction exists.
Check to see whether the warning lamp goes
off after few minutes driving.
If it then goes off during driving, there is no
problem.
However, if the warning lamp does not go off, or if it blinks again when the engine is
restarted, have the vehicle inspected by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
In such situations, a malfunctioning of the system may be preventing the monitoring of the tyre pressure. For safety reasons, when
the warning lamp appears while driving,
avoid sudden braking, sharp turning and high-speed driving.NOTEl In addition, the warning display will be dis-
played on the information screen in the mul-
ti-information display.

Refitting the covers
1.With each cover, put the tabs (C) on the
cover in the holes (D) in the roof.
2. Slide the cover (B) towards the rear of
the vehicle to install it.
Roof carrier precaution
CAUTIONl Make sure that the weight of the luggage
does not exceed the allowable roof load.
If the allowable roof load is exceeded, this may cause damage to the vehicle.
The roof load is the total allowable load on
the roof (the weight of the roof carrier plus
the weight of luggage placed on the roof car- rier).
For the specific value, refer to “Maximum
roof load” on page 11-07.CAUTIONl When luggage is loaded onto the vehicle,
please make sure to drive slowly and avoid
excessive manoeuvres such as sudden brak- ing or quick turning.
In addition, place the luggage on the carrier
so that its weight is distributed evenly with the heaviest items on the bottom. Do not load items that are wider than the roof carri-
er.
The additional weight on the roof could raise
the vehicle’s centre of gravity and affect ve-
hicle handling characteristics.
As a result, driving errors or emergency ma- noeuvres could lead to a loss of control and
result in an accident.
l Before driving and after travelling a short
distance, always check the load to make sure
it is securely fastened to the roof carrier.
Check periodically during your travel that the load remains secure.NOTEl To prevent wind noise or reduction in fuel
economy, remove the roof carrier when not
in use.
l Remove the roof carrier before using an au-
tomatic car wash.
l Be sure that adequate clearance is main-
tained for raising the tailgate when installing a roof carrier.Trailer towing
E00610001948
In order to tow a trailer with your vehicle,
have a trailer towing device mounted that
meets all relevant regulations in your area, consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point.
The regulations concerning the towing of a
trailer may differ from country to country. You are advised to obey the regulations in
each area.CAUTIONl Danger of Accident!
A towing bar should be fitted according to MITSUBISHI MOTORS guidelines.
Maximum towable weight with
brake and maximum trailer- nose weight
Never exceed the maximum towable weight
with brake and the maximum trailer-nose weight as listed in the specifications.
(Refer to page 11-07.)
If you tow a trailer at an altitude of more than
1,000 m above sea-level, reduce your weight by 10 % of the gross combination weight for
every increase of 1,000 m above sea-level, as
the engine output is lowered owing to de-
crease in atmospheric pressure.

Additional precautions for vehi-
cles equipped with an A/T or
CVT
It is recommended the “D” position on slopes or at low speed.
Use the sports mode in mountainous areas in
order to make better use of engine braking and to assist the brake system. However, be
sure that the speed does not exceed the maxi-
mum speed limit for the selected shift posi- tion.
Overheating
This will normally occur as a result of some
mechanical failure. If your vehicle should overheat, stop and check for a loose or bro-
ken water pump/alternator drive belt, a blocked radiator air intake or a low coolant level. If these items are satisfactory the over-
heating could be caused by a number of me-
chanical causes that would have to be
checked at a competent service centre.
CAUTIONl If the engine overheats, please refer to the
“Engine overheating” section of “For emer-
gencies” prior to taking any corrective ac-
tion.CAUTIONl On vehicles equipped with
A/T, CVT, if the warning display is showing, the tempera-
ture of the A/T fluid, CVT fluid is high.
Read the reference page and take the re-
quired measures.
Read the reference page and take the re-
quired measures.
Refer to “When a malfunction occurs in the A/T” on page 6-30, “When a malfunction
occurs in the CVT” on page 6-37.

Air conditioning system refrig-erant and lubricant recommen- dations
If the air conditioning seems less effective
than usual, the cause might be a refrigerant leak. We recommend you to have the systeminspected.
The air conditioning system in your vehicle must be charged with the refrigerant
HFO-1234yf (Except for vehicles for Russia,
Kazakhstan, Moldova and Ukraine) or HFC-134a (Vehicles for Russia, Kazakhstan,
Moldova and Ukraine) and the lubricant PAG46A (Except for vehicles for Russia, Ka-
zakhstan, Moldova and Ukraine) or
SUN-PAG56 (Vehicles for Russia, Kazakh-
stan, Moldova and Ukraine). Use of any other refrigerant or lubricant will cause severe damage which will result in the
need to replace your vehicle’s entire air con- ditioning system. The release of refrigerant
into the atmosphere is not recommended.
We recommend you to recover and recycle the refrigerant for reuse.
During a long period of disuse
The air conditioning should be operated for at
least five minutes each week, even in cold
weather. This is to prevent the compressor from seizing and to maintain the air condi-
tioning in the best operating condition.
Air purifier
E00708400561
An air filter has been incorporated into the air conditioning so that pollen and dust are
cleaned from the air.
Replace the air filter periodically as its ability
to clean the air will be reduced as it collects pollen and dirt. For the maintenance interval,
refer to the “SERVICE BOOKLET”.NOTEl Operation in certain conditions such as driv-
ing on a dusty road and frequent use of the air conditioning can lead to reduction of
service life of the filter. When you feel that the air flow is lower than normal or when the windscreen or windows start to fog up
easily, replace the air filter.
We recommend you to have it checked.LW/MW/FM radio/CD

The audio system can only be used when theignition switch or the operation mode is in
ON or ACC.
NOTEl To listen to the audio system while the en-
gine is not running, turn the ignition switch
to the “ACC” position or put the operation mode in ACC.
If the ignition switch or the operation mode is left in ACC, the accessory power will au-
tomatically turn off after a certain period of time and you will no longer be able to usethe audio system. The accessory power
comes on again if the ignition switch or the engine switch is operated with it in the“ACC” position. Refer to “ACC power auto-
cutout function” on pages 3-14 and 6-13.
l If a cellular phone is used inside the vehicle,
it may create noise from the audio equip-
ment. This does not mean that anything is wrong with your audio equipment. In such acase, use the cellular phone at a place as far
away as possible from the audio equipment.
l If foreign objects or water get into the audio
equipment, or if smoke or a strange odour comes from it, immediately turn off the au-
dio system. We recommend you to have it checked. Never try to repair it by yourself.
Avoid continuous usage without inspection
by a qualified person.
