lRemove the insects, dried grass, etc.
clogging the radiator core and A/T oil
cooler.
l After crossing a stream, be sure to have
the following items inspected at a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point and take the necessary
measures. • Check the brake system and, if neces-
sary, have it serviced.
• Check the engine, transmission, trans-
fer, and differential oil or grease level and turbidity. If the oil or grease is
milky, it indicates water contamina-
tion. Replace it with new oil or grease.
• Grease the propeller shaft.
• Check the inside of the vehicle. If in-
gress of water is found, dry the carpetetc.
• Inspect the headlamps. If the head-
lamp bulb is flooded with water, have
the headlamp drained off.Cautions on handling of 4-

Tyres and wheels
Since the driving torque can be applied to the 4 wheels, the performance of the vehiclewhen operating in 4-wheel drive is greatly af-
fected by the condition of the tyres.
Pay close attention to the tyres.
l Install specified tyres on all wheels. Re-
fer to “Tyres and wheels” on page 11-15.
l Be sure to the appropriate tyre inflation
pressure according to no cargo or cargo.
Refer to “Tyre inflation pressures” on
page 10-12.
l Be sure to fit all 4 tyres and wheels of
the same size and type.
When replacement of any of the tyres or wheels is necessary, replace all of them.
l All tyres should be rotated whenever the
wear difference between the front and
rear tyres is recognizable.
Good vehicle performance cannot be expec-
ted if there is a difference in wear between tyres. Refer to “Tyre rotation” on page 10-13.
l Check the tyre inflation pressure regular-
ly.
CAUTIONl Always use tyres of the same size, same
type, and same brand, and which have no wear differences. Using the tyres which dif-
fer in size, type, brands or the degree of wear or the inappropriate tyre inflation pres-
sure, will increase the differential oil tem- perature and may be impossible to shift the transfer, resulting in possible 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
If towing is necessary, we recommend you to
have it done by your MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or a
commercial tow truck service.
In the following cases, transport the vehicle
using a tow truck.
l The engine runs but the vehicle does not
move or abnormal noise is produced.
l Inspection of the vehicle’s underside re-
veals that oil or some other fluid is leak- ing.
Cautions on handling of 4-wheel drive vehicles
6-52OKTE18E1Starting and driving6

•Driving on gravel or snow-covered
roads.
• Driving with tyre chains installed.
• Driving on roads where the road sur-
face is pitted or has other differences in surface height.
• Driving on uneven road surfaces.
l Operation of ABS is not restricted to sit-
uations where brakes are applied sud-denly. This system may also prevent the
wheels from locking when you drive over manholes, steel roadwork plates,
road markings, or any uneven road sur-
face.
l When the ABS is activated, you may
feel the brake pedal pulsation and the vi-
brations of the vehicle body and steering
wheel. It may also feel as if the pedal re- sists being pressed.
In this situation, simply hold the brake
pedal down firmly. Do not pump the
brake, which will result in reduced brak- ing performance.
l An operation noise is emitted from the
engine compartment or you can feel a shock from the brake pedal when start-
ing to drive immediately after starting
the engine. These are normal sounds or operations that the ABS makes whenperforming a self-check. It does not indi-
cate a malfunction.l The ABS can be used after the vehicle
has reached a speed over approximately 10 km/h (6 mph). It stops working when the vehicle slows below 7 km/h.CAUTIONl The ABS cannot prevent accidents. It is your
responsibility to take safety precautions and to drive carefully.
l To prevent failure of the ABS, be sure all 4
wheels and tyres are the same size and the same type.
l Do not install any aftermarket limited-slip
differential (LSD) on your vehicle. The ABS may stop functioning properly.ABS warning lamp
E00607202477
If there is a malfunction in the system, the
ABS warning lamp will come on.
Under normal conditions, the ABS warning
lamp comes on when the ignition switch is
turned to the “ON” position or the operation mode is put in ON and goes off a few sec-
onds later.CAUTIONl Any of the following indicates that the ABS
is not functioning and only the standard
brake system is working. (The standard brake system is functioning normally.) If
this happens, take your vehicle to a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
• When the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position or the operation mode is
put in ON, the warning lamp does not come on or it remains on and does not go off.
• The warning lamp comes on while driving
Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
6-57OKTE18E1Starting and driving6

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.CAUTIONl Do not leave the steering wheel turned all
the way in one direction. This can causedamage to the power steering system.Active Stability & Traction
Control (ASTC)* E00616701790
The active stability & traction control (ASTC) takes overall control of the anti-lockbrake system, Active Stability Control func-
tion and active traction control function to
help maintain the vehicle’s control and trac- tion. Please read this section in conjunction with the pages on the anti-lock brake system,
Active Stability Control function and active
traction control function.
Anti-lock brake system (ABS) ® p. 6-56
Active Stability Control function ® p. 6-60
Active Traction Control function ® p. 6-61CAUTIONl Do not over-rely on the ASTC. Even the
ASTC cannot prevent the natural laws of
physics from acting on the vehicle. This system, like any other system, has lim-
its and cannot help you to maintain traction and control of the vehicle in all circumstan- ces. Reckless driving may lead to accidents.
It is the driver’s responsibility to drive care- fully. This means taking into account the
traffic, road and environmental conditions.
l Be sure to use the same specified type and
size of tyre on all 4 wheels. Otherwise, the
ASTC may not work correctly.CAUTIONl Do not install any aftermarket limited-slip
differential (LSD) on your vehicle. The Ac-
tive Stability Control function may stop functioning properly.NOTEl An operation noise may be emitted from the
engine compartment in the following situa-
tions. The sound is associated with checking the operations of the ASTC. At this time,
you may feel a shock from the brake pedal if
you depress it. These do not indicate a mal- function.
• When the ignition switch is set to the
“ON” position or the operation mode is put in ON.
• When the vehicle is driven for a while af-
ter the engine is turned on.
l When the ASTC is activated, you may feel a
vibration in the vehicle body or hear a whin-
ing sound from the engine compartment.
This indicates that the system is operating normally. It does not indicate a malfunction.
l When the anti-lock brake system warning
lamp is illuminated, the ASTC is not active.

WARNINGlIf any of the check results are not normal,
the red lamp illuminates (for approxi- mately 5 seconds) and the buzzer sounds 3times. In this case, there is a possible fail-
ure in the system. Have the system inspec- ted by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point immediately.
6. When the green lamp extinguishes, the
test mode is completed.
If the vehicle breaks down
E00800101137
If the vehicle breaks down on the road, moveit to the shoulder and use the hazard warning
flashers and/or the warning triangle etc.
Refer to “Hazard warning flasher switch” on page 5-21.
If the engine stops/fails
Vehicle operation and control are affected if
the engine stops. Before moving the vehicle to a safe area, be aware of the following:
l The brake booster becomes inoperative
and the pedal effort will increase. Press
down the brake pedal harder than usual.
l Since the power steering system is no
longer operative, the steering wheel feels heavy when turning it.
If the operation mode
cannot be changed to OFF (vehicles equipped with the
keyless operation system) E00804900077
If the operation mode cannot be changed to OFF, perform the following procedure. 1. Move the selector lever to the “P”
(PARK) position, and then change the operation mode to OFF. (For vehicles with A/T)
2. One of the other causes could be low
battery voltage. If this occurs, the key-
less entry system, keyless operation
function and steering lock will also not operate. Contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.Emergency starting

If the engine cannot be started because thebattery is weak or dead, the battery from an-other vehicle can be used with jumper cables to start the engine.
WARNINGl To start the engine using jumper cables
connected from another vehicle, perform
the correct procedures according to the instruction below. Incorrect procedures could result in a fire or explosion or dam-
age to the vehicles.
l Keep sparks, cigarettes and flames away
from the battery because the battery may produce an explosion.CAUTIONl Do not attempt to start the engine by pulling
or pushing the vehicle.
It could damage your vehicle.
l Check the other vehicle. It must have a 12-
volt battery.
If the other system isn’t 12-volt, shorting can
damage both vehicles.
l Use the proper cables suitable for the battery
size to prevent overheating of the cables.
l Check the jumper cables for damage and
corrosion before use.
l Always wear protective eye goggles when
working near the battery.
l Keep the battery out of the reach of children.

Tightening torqueSteel wheel: 137 to 157 N•m
Aluminium wheel: 118 to 137 N•m
(Achieved by applying a force at the end of the wheel nut wrench supplied
with the vehicle.
Steel wheel: 510 to 580 N
Aluminium wheel: 440 to 500 N)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.
11. 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 cannot
be used.
l 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 (M) into the bracket (N).
Then using the handle, remove the jack.
12. Press the piston down all the way, and
turn the release valve clockwise as far as possible.
13. Check your tyre inflation pressure. The
correct pressures are shown on the door
label. See the illustration.CAUTIONl The tyre pressure should be periodically
checked and maintained at the specified pressure while the tyre is stowed.
l 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.
l 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.

1- Location of the tread wear indicator
2- Tread wear indicator
Check the tyres for cuts, cracks and other damage. Replace the tyres if there are deep
cuts or cracks. Also check each tyre for pieces of metal or pebbles.
The use of worn tyres can be very dangerous
because of the greater chance of skidding or
hydroplaning. The tread depth of the tyres
must exceed 1.6 mm in order for the tyres to meet the minimum requirement for use.
Tread wear indicators will appear on the sur-
face of the tyre as the tyre wears, thereby in-
dicating that the tyre no longer meets the
minimum requirement for use. When these wear indicators appear, the tyres must be re-
placed with new ones.
On 4-wheel drive vehicles, when replacement
of any of the tyres is necessary, replace all of
them.CAUTIONl Always use tyres of the same size, same
type, and same brand, and which have no wear differences. Using tyres of differentsize, type, brands or degree of wear, will in-
crease the differential oil temperature, result-
ing in possible damage to the driving sys-
tem. Further, the drive train will be subjec- ted to excessive loading, possibly leading tooil leakage, component seizure, or other seri-
ous faults.Replacing tyres and wheels
E01007200038
CAUTIONl Avoid 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
11-15.
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.Tyre rotation
E01001902688
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.
Tyres
10-13OKTE18E1Maintenance10

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.CAUTIONl If the tyres have arrows (A) indicating the
correct direction of rotation, swap the front
and rear tyres on the left-hand side of the ve- hicle and the front and rear tyres on the right-hand side of the vehicle separately.
Keep each tyre on its original side of the ve- hicle. When fitting the tyres, make sure the
arrows point in the direction in which the wheels will turn when the vehicle moves
forward. Any tyre whose arrow points in the wrong direction will not perform to its fullpotential.Front
CAUTIONl Avoid the combined use of different types of
tyres.
Using different types of tyres can affect ve-
hicle performance and safety.Snow tyres
E01002002022
The use of snow tyres is recommended for
driving on snow and ice. To preserve driving stability, mount snow tyres of the same size and tread pattern on all 4 wheels.
A snow tyre that is worn down more than
50 % is no longer appropriate to use.
Snow tyres which do not meet specifications must not be used.
CAUTIONl Observe permissible maximum speed for
your snow tyres and the legal speed limit.NOTEl The laws and regulations concerning snow
tyres (driving speed, required use, type, etc.)
vary. Find out and follow the laws and regu- lations in the area you intend to drive.
l If flange nuts are used on your vehicle,
change to tapered nuts when steel wheels are used.Snow traction device (Tyre
chains)
E01002103219
If snow traction device (tyre chains) have to
be used, ensure that they are fitted only on
the drive wheels (rear) in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
