Tire pressure monitoring system
Features and controls 5-139

Each tire, including the spare (if provided),should be checked monthly when cold andinflated to the inflation pressure recom-mended by the vehicle manufacturer on thevehicle placard or tire
inflation pressure label.
(If your vehicle has tires of a different sizethan the size indicated on the vehicle placardor tire inflation pressure label, you shoulddetermine the proper ti
re inflation pressure
for those tires.)As an added safety feat
ure, your vehicle has
been equipped with a tire pressure monitoringsystem (TPMS) that illuminates a low tirepressure telltale when
one or more of your
tires is significantly under-inflated.Accordingly, when the low tire pressure tell-tale illuminates, you
should stop and check
your tires as soon as possible, and inflatethem to the proper pressure. Driving on a sig-nificantly under-inflated
tire causes the tire to
overheat and can lead
to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiencyand tire tread life, and may affect the vehi-cle’s handling and stoppi
ng ability. Please
note that the TPMS is
not a substitute for
proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’sresponsibility to
maintain corre
ct tire pres-
sure, even if under-infl
ation has not reached
the level to trigger illumination of the TPMSlow tire pressure telltale.Your vehicle has also
been equipped with a
TPMS malfunction indica
tor to indicate when
the system is not operating properly. TheTPMS malfunction indicator is combinedwith the low tire pressure telltale.When the system detects a malfunction, thetelltale will flash for approximately one min-ute and then remain c
ontinuously illuminated.
This sequence will c
ontinue upon subsequent
vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunctionexists.When the malfunction indicator is illumi-nated, the system may not
be able to detect or
signal low tire pr
essure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions ma
y occur for a variety
of reasons, including the installation ofreplacement or alternate tires or wheels on thevehicle that prevent the TPMS from function-ing properly. Always
check the TPMS mal-
function telltale after
replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure thatthe replacement or alternate tires and wheels
CAUTIONIf the tire pressure monitoring system warn-ing light does not illumi
nate when the igni-
tion switch is turned to the “ON” position orthe operation mode is put in ON, it meansthat the tire pressure monitoring system isnot working properly. Have the systeminspected by an authorized MitsubishiMotors dealer.In such situations, a malfunctioning of thesystem may be preventing the monitoring ofthe tire pressure. Avoid sudden braking,sharp turning and high-speed driving.If a malfunction is detected in the tire pres-sure monitoring system, the tire pressuremonitoring system warning light will blinkfor approximately 1 mi
nute and then remain
continuously illuminate
d. The warning light
will issue further warnings each time theengine is restarted as
long as the malfunction
exists.Check to see whether the warning light goesoff after few minutes driving.If it then goes off during driving, there is noproblem.However, if the warning light does not gooff, or if it blinks again when the engine isrestarted, have the
vehicle inspected by an
authorized Mitsubish
i Motors dealer.
In such situations, a malfunctioning of thesystem may be preventing the monitoring ofthe tire pressure. For safety reasons, whenthe warning light appears while driving,avoid sudden braking, sharp turning andhigh-speed driving.
NOTE
In addition, the warni
ng display is displayed
on the information screen in the multi-infor-mation display.

1. If the tire pressure monitoring systemwarning light illuminates, avoiding hardbraking, sharp steering maneuvers andhigh speeds. You should stop and adjustthe tires to the proper inflation pressure assoon as possible. Adjust the spare tire atthe same time. Refer to “Tires” on page9-15.
2. If the tire pressure monitoring systemwarning light remain
s illuminated after
you have been driving for about 20 min-utes after you adjust the tire inflation pres-sure, one or more of the tires may have apuncture. Inspect the tire and if it has apuncture, have it repaired by an autho-rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer as soon aspossible.
The tire pressure monitoring system may notwork normally in the following circum-stances:A wireless facility
or device using the
same frequency is near the vehicle.Snow or ice is stuck inside the fendersand/or on the wheels.The tire inflation pressure sensor’s batteryis dead.Wheels other than Mitsubishi genuinewheels are being used.Wheels that are not fitted with tire infla-tion pressure sensors are being used.Wheels whose ID codes are not memo-rized by the vehicle are used.Compact spare tire is fitted as a roadwheel.
If the warning light / display illuminates while driving
NOTE
In addition, the warni
ng display is displayed
on the information screen in the multi-infor-mation display.When inspecting or adjusting the tire pres-sure, do not apply excessive force to thevalve stem to
avoid breakage.
After inspecting or adjusting the tire pres-sure, always reinstall the valve cap on thevalve stem.Without the valve cap, di
rt or moisture could
get into the valve, resulting in damage to thetire inflation pressure sensor.Do not use metal valve caps, which maycause a metal reaction,
resulting in corrosion
and damage of the tire
inflation pressure sen-
sors.
Once adjustments have
been made, the warn-
ing light will go off after a few minutes ofdriving.WA R N I N GIf the warning light
/ display illuminates
while you are driving, avoid hard braking,sharp steering maneuvers and highspeeds.Driving with an under-inflated tireadversely affects vehi
cle performance and
can result in an accident.CAUTIONIf a tire has a puncture, replace that tire withthe spare tire. Driving on a punctured tirecould lead to an accident.The warning light / di
splay may not illumi-
nate immediately in the
event of a tire blow-
out or rapid leak.NOTE
NOTE
To avoid the risk of damage to the tire infla-tion pressure sensors, have any puncturedtire repaired by an authorized MitsubishiMotors dealer. If the tire repair is not done byan authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer, it isnot covered by your warranty.Do not use an aerosol puncture-repair sprayon any tire.Such a spray could dama
ge the tire inflation
pressure sensors.Have any puncture repa
ired by an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer.

If new wheels with new tire inflation pressuresensors are installed,
their ID codes must be
programmed into the tire pressure monitoringsystem. Have tire and
wheel replacement per-
formed by an authorized Mitsubishi Motorsdealer to avoid the ri
sk of damaging the tire
inflation pressure sensors. If the wheelreplacement is not done by an authorizedMitsubishi Motors dealer
, it is not covered by
your warranty.

In case that 2 sets of tire inflation pressuresensor ID are registered in the receiver, thevalid tire ID set can be changed by followingprocedure.[For vehicles equipped with color liquid crys-tal display meter]1. Operate the multi information displayswitch to switch the information screen tothe menu screen.Refer to “Multi information displayswitch” on page 5-157.Refer to “Changing the function settings”on page 5-167.2. Lightly press the multi information dis-play switch to select “ ” (tireID set change).
3. Hold down the multi information displayswitch for about 3 seconds or more. Thesetting changes to the selected tire ID set.4. The valid tire ID se
t is changed, and the
number of the tire pressure monitoringsystem (TPMS) SET indicator is changed.
[For vehicles equipped
with mono-color liq-
uid crystal display meter]1. Transit the display by multi informationdisplay switch until th
e tire pressure mon-
itoring system (TPMS) SET indicator isdisplayed.
NOTE
Tire inflation pressures vary with the ambi-ent temperature. If the
vehicle is subjected to
large variations in ambient temperature, thetire inflation pressures may be under-inflated(causing the warning light / display come on)when the ambient temperature is relativelylow. If the warning light / display comes on,adjust the tire inflation pressure.
Whenever the tires and wheels are replaced with new ones
CAUTIONThe use of non-genuine wheels will preventthe proper fit of the tire inflation pressuresensors, resulting air
leakage or damage of
the sensors.

NOTE
Each time this procedure is done, the tire IDset is changed. (1 - 2 - 1 - 2 …)only 1 set of ID is registered.
