Your vehicle has been designed for both nor-mal and occasional off-road use. However,avoid driving the vehicle through areas wherethe tires may get stuck in deep sand or mud asyour vehicle is designe
d primarily for use on
pavement, unlike a conventional off-roadvehicle.Keep in mind that 2-wheel drive vehicles areless capable than 4-wh
eel drive vehicles for
driving on muddy, slippery, wet or snow-cov-ered roads.Utility vehicles have
higher ground clearance
and a narrower track, which enables them toperform in a wide variety of off-road situa-tions. Because of the higher ground clear-ance, these vehicles have a higher center ofgravity, which makes them handle differentlythan ordinary vehicles when driving on pave-ment. They are not designed to maneuver orcorner at the same speed on pavement as con-ventional 2-wheel driv
e passenger cars any
more than low-slung sports cars are designed
to perform satisfactorily in off-road condi-tions.Always drive safely
and steer the vehicle
carefully. Avoid operating the vehicle in amanner that might require sharp turns orabrupt maneuvers. As wi
th other vehicles of
this type, failure to operate this vehicle cor-rectly can result in lo
ss of control or vehicle
rollover.In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is sig-nificantly more likely to die than a personwearing a seat belt. Be
fore starting the vehi-
cle, always make cert
ain that you and all your
passengers are properly wearing their seatbelts (with children in the rear seat, in appro-priate restraints).
N00628801191
Fuel economy is depe
ndent on many factors.
Your personal driving habits can have a sig-nificant effect on your fuel consumption.Several recommendations
for achieving the
greatest fuel economy are listed below.Whenever accelerating from a stop,always accelerate
slowly and smoothly.
When parked for even a short period, donot idle the engine. Shut it off.Plan your trips to avoid unnecessarystops.
Keep your tires inflated to the recom-mended pressures.When driving a 4-wheel drive vehicle onhighways or dry improved roads, set thedrive mode to “4WD ECO” or “4WDAUTO” (Electronically controlled 4WD),or “AWC ECO” or “NORMAL” (S-AW C ) .For freeway driving, maintain a speed ofapproximately 50 mph (80 km/h) whentraffic, roadway and weather conditionssafely permit.Keep your air filter clean and your vehiclelubricated according
to the recommenda-
tions in this manual.Always keep your ve
hicle well main-
tained. A poorly maintained enginewastes fuel and costs money.Never overload your vehicle.
N00628900049
Drunk driving is one of the most frequentcauses of accidents.Your driving ability ca
n be seriously impaired
even with blood alcohol levels far below thelegal minimum. If you
have been drinking,
don’t drive. Ride with a designated non-drinking driver, call a cab or a friend, or usepublic transportation. Drinking coffee or tak-ing a cold shower will not make you sober.

WA R N I N GUtility vehicles have
a significantly higher

d stopping distances
resulting in a cras
h and injury. Always
make sure the floor mat does not interferewith the accelerator or brake pedal.Always use the retaining clip on thedriver’s floorboard to secure the floormat.Always install the mat with the correctside facing down.Never install a second mat over or underan existing floor mat.Do not use a floor mat designed foranother model vehicle ev
en if it is a Mit-

oor mat while clean-
ing the inside of you

you give extra attention to the followingareas, you can better protect yourself andyour passengers:Drive defensively. Be aware of traffic,road and weather c
onditions. Leave plenty
of stopping distance
between your vehicle
and the vehicle ahead.Before changing lanes, check your mir-rors, blind spots, a
nd use your turn-signal
light.While driving, watch the behavior ofother drivers, bicycl
ists, and pedestrians.
Always obey applicab
le laws and regula-
tions. Be a polite and alert driver. Alwaysleave room for unexpected events, such assudden braking.If you plan to drive in another country,obey their vehicle re
gistration laws and
make sure you will be able to get the rightfuel.
N00629400445
Check the battery. At the same time,check the terminals and wiring. Duringextremely cold weather, the battery willnot be as strong. Also, the battery powerlevel may drop beca
use more power is
used for cold starting and driving.
Before driving the vehicle, check to see ifthe engine runs at the proper speed and ifthe headlights are as bright as normally.Charge or replace the battery if necessary.During extreme cold weather, it is possi-ble that a very low battery could freeze.Warm the engine sufficiently. After start-ing the engine, allow a short warm-uptime to distribute oil to all cylinders. Thendrive your vehicle slowly.Stay at low speeds at first so that thetransaxle, transfer case and rear axle oilhave time to spread to all lubricationpoints.Check the engine antifreeze.If there is not enough coolant because of aleak or from engine
overheating, add Mit-
subishi Motors Genuine Super Long LifeCoolant Premium or equivalent.Please read this section in conjunctionwith the “Engine coolant” on page 9-8.

All the parts of the brake system are criticalto safety. Have the
vehicle serviced by an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or arepair facility of your
choice at regular inter-
vals according to the “WARRANTY ANDMAINTENANCE MANUAL”.Check the brake system while driving at alow speed immediately
after starting, espe-
cially when the brakes are wet, to confirmthey work normally.A film of water can be formed on the brakediscs and prevent normal braking after driv-ing in heavy rain or through large puddles, orafter the vehicle is washed. If this occurs, drythe brakes out by drivi
ng slowly while lightly
depressing the brake pedal.
Driving during cold weather
WA R N I N GThe battery gives off explosive hydrogengas. Any spark or flame can cause the bat-tery to explode, which could cause seriousinjury or death.Always wear protecti
ve clothes and a face
mask when working with your battery, orlet a skilled mechanic do it.
WA R N I N GNever open the radiator cap when theradiator is hot. You could be seriouslyburned.
