It is important to familiarize yourself with thefollowing terms:Cold tire pressure:• The measured pressure after the vehiclehas been parked for
at least three hours,
or• The measured pressure when the vehicleis driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) afterhaving been parked for three hours.
Maximum pressure: the maximum per-missible cold tire inflation pressure forthis tire.Recommended inflation pressure: theinflation pressure for optimum tire perfor-mance.Intended outboard sidewall:• The sidewall that
contains a whitewall,
bears white lettering or bears manufac-turer, brand, and/or model name moldingthat is higher or deeper than the samemolding on the other sidewall of the tire,or
• The outward facing si
dewall of an asym-
metrical tire that has a particular sidethat must always face outward whenmounted on a vehicle.
Passenger car tire: a
tire intended for use
on passenger cars, multipurpose passen-ger vehicles, and trucks
that have a gross
vehicle weight rati
ng (GVWR) of 10,000
pounds or less.Light truck (LT) tire: a tire designated byits manufacturer as primarily intended foruse on lightweight truc
ks or multipurpose
passenger vehicles.Tread: portion of a ti
re that comes into
contact with the road.Tread rib: a tread se
ction running circum-
ferentially around a tire.Tread separation: pulling away of thetread from the tire carcass.Carcass: the tire structure, except treadand sidewall rubber wh
ich, when inflated,
bears the load.Sidewall: portion of
a tire between the
tread and bead.Section width: the lin
ear distance between
the exteriors of th
e sidewalls of an
inflated tire, excluding elevations due tolabeling, decoration,
or protective bands.
Bead: the part of the tire that is made ofsteel wires, wrapped or reinforced by plycords and that is shaped to fit the rim.
NOTE
Check each battery terminal for corrosion.You can prevent further corrosion by wash-ing with a solution of
baking soda and water.
Grease the posts and cl
amps after cleaning or
tightening them.Ensure the battery is securely installed andcannot be moved. Also
check each terminal
for tightness.If you will not be driv
ing your vehicle for a
long period of time, re
move the battery and
store it in a place where the battery fluid willnot freeze. The batter
y only should be stored
with a full charge.Before cleaning the battery, tighten all thefiller port caps to keep
dirt and moisture out.
Tires
WA R N I N GDriving with tires that are worn, damagedor improperly infl
ated is dangerous.
These type tire conditions will adverselyaffect vehicle performance.These type tire conditions can also cause atread separation or blowout which mayresult in an accident causing seriousinjury or death.
Tires, including spar
e tire, degrade over
time with age even when they are notbeing used.It is recommended that tires over 6 yearsgenerally be replaced
even if damage is
not obvious.WA R N I N G

N00940800328
Your vehicle is equi
pped with an emission-
control system that meets all the requirementsof the U.S. Environm
ental Protection Agency
and Environment Cana
da. The emission-con-
trol system is made of:a positive crankcase
ventilation system
an evaporative emis
sion-control system
an exhaust emission-control system
To be sure the emissi
on-control system works
properly, have your vehicle inspected andmaintained by an authorized MitsubishiMotors dealer or a repair facility of yourchoice. This should be done at the time ormileage specified in the “WARRANTY ANDMAINTENANCE MANUAL”.These, and all the other “general” mainte-nance services listed in this manual, need tobe performed to keep
your vehicle running
properly and reliably.You should also have an inspection and ser-vice any time you suspect a malfunction.
N00940900231
Spark plugs must fire properly to ensureproper engine perfo
rmance and emission-
control.Do not reuse spark plugs by cleaning orregapping. Spark plugs should be replaced atthe mileage specified in the “WARRANTYAND MAINTENANCE MANUAL”.
Check the hose surfaces for any heat andmechanical damage, hard and brittle rubber,cracking, tears, cuts and abrasions. Pay spe-cial attention to the hos
es closest to high heat
sources such as the exhaust manifold. Checkall the hose connections
, such as clamps and
couplings, to make sure
they are secure and
that there are no leaks. If you see any wear ordamage, replace the
hoses immediately.
N00950100050
Have the valve clea
rance checked at an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer at themileage specified in the “WARRANTY ANDMAINTENANCE MANUAL”.If the engine sounds abnormally loud, haveadjustments made by an authorizedMitsubishi Motors dealer.
N00941300173
Check these regularly for damage or leaks inthe fuel lines and connections. Check the fueltank filler cap for dama
ge or looseness. Pay
special attention to the fuel lines closest to
Emission-control system maintenance
NOTE
To meet government regulations and pro-mote cleaner air, your
vehicle is equipped
with an onboard dia
gnostic system (OBD).
The engine electronic control module thatcontrols OBD functions stores various data(especially a
bout the exhaust emissions).
This data will be erased if the battery cable isdisconnected, which c
ould make a rapid
diagnosis difficult.
Do not disconnect the
battery cable when the engine malfunctionindicator (“SERVICE ENGINE SOON” or“Check engine
light”) is ON.
Spark plugs
NOTE
Use the recommended or equivalent sparkplugs listed under “Engin
e specifications” on
page 11-6. Use of other plugs could causeengine damage, loss of performance or radionoise.

Replacement of light bulbs

4. Use the fuse location diagrams and thematching tables, to check the fuse that isrelated to the problem. If the fuse is notblown, something else must be causingthe problem. Have the system inspectedby your authorized Mitsubishi Motorsdealer or a repair facility of your choice.
5. Insert a new fuse
of the same capacity
securely into the appropriate slot.
N00942901391
Before replacing the bulb, be sure the light isoff. Do not touch the glass part of the newbulb with your bare fingers; the oil from yourskin will stay on the glass and dim or destroythe bulb when it gets hot.
B- Fuse is OKC- Blown fuse
CAUTIONNever use a fuse with a capacity greater thanthe one listed or any s
ubstitute, such as wire,
foil etc. This would
cause the circuit wiring
to heat up and could cause a fire.If the replacement fuse blows again after ashort time, have the electrical systemchecked by an authorized Mitsubishi Motorsdealer or a repair faci
lity of your choice to
find and correct
the cause.
Replacement of light bulbs
CAUTIONBulbs are extremely hot immediately afterbeing turned off.When replacing the bulb, wait for it to coolsufficiently before
touching it. You could
otherwise be burned.
Handle halogen light bul
b with care. The gas
inside a halogen light
bulb is highly pressur-
ized, so dropping, knocki
ng, or scratching a
halogen light bulb can
cause it to shatter.
Never hold the halogen
light bulb with a bare
hand, dirty glove, etc.The oil from your hand could cause the bulbto break the next time the headlights areused.If the glass surface is dirty, clean it withalcohol and let it dry completely beforeinstalling the bulb.CAUTIONDo not install commercially available LED-type bulbs. Commercia
lly available LED-
type bulbs could adversely affect the opera-tion of the vehicle, such as by preventing thelights and other vehicle equipment fromoperating properly.CAUTION
