When driving on a road covered with snow or ice, use s
now tires. Tire chains
cannot be used on your vehicle. There may be state or local regulations aboutusing snow tires. Al
ways check the regu-
lations in your local area before using them. Refer to “Snow tires” on page 9-22and “Tire chains” on page 9-23. Drive slowly. Do not make sudden starts or stops, sharp turns, or slam on the brakes. Allow extra distance
between your vehi-
cle and the vehicle in front of you, and avoid sudden braking. If a skid occurs when the accelerator pedal is depressed, take your foot off the pedal. Steer gently in the direction of the skid. Your vehicle is equipped with an anti-lock braking system (ABS). Hold the brake pedal down firmly and keep it depressed.Do not pump the brake pedal which will result in reduced braking performance. After parking on snowy or icy roads, it may be difficult to move your vehicle due to the brake being frozen. Depress the accelerator pedal little by little to movethe vehicle when safe to do so.
Drive as slow as pos
sible when driving on
bumpy, rutted roads or over potholes.
N00860600031
In the event of a collision causing frontal air-bag deployment, the fuel pump shut-off sys-tem will activate to st
op fuel supply to the
engine.
On snowy or icy roads
CAUTION Do not depress the acce
lerator pedal rapidly.
The vehicle could start moving when itbreaks free from the
ice, possibly resulting in
an accident.
On a bumpy or rutted road
CAUTION Driving on bumpy, rutted roads or over pot- holes can damage th
e tires and wheels.
Wheels with low-profiles tires or under-inflated tires are especially at risk for dam- age.

e not aligned properly,
wheels that are out-of-balance, or severebraking. Check with an author
ized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer or a repair facility of your choice tofind out the reason for uneven tread wear. The first tire rotation is the most important one. It will allow all your
tires to wear evenly.
N00940000320
In some areas of the country, snow tires are required for winter driving. If snow tires are required in your area, you must choose snowtires of the same size
and type as the original
tires provided with your vehicle. Snow tires should also be installe
d on all four wheels.
Otherwise your safety and vehicle handling can be reduced. Even where laws may permit it, snow tires should not be operated
at sustained speeds
over 75 mph (120 km/h).
CAUTION A compact spare tire can be installed tempo- rarily in place of a tire
that has been removed
during the tire rotation. However, it must not be included in the re
gular tire rotation
sequence.
Tires that do not have arrows showing rotation direction Tires that have arrows s
howing rotation direction
Front Front
If the tires have arrows (A) indicating the correct direction of ro
tation, swap the front
and rear tires on the le
ft-hand side of the
vehicle and the front
and rear tires on the
right-hand side of th
e vehicle separately.
Keep each tire on its original side of thevehicle. When installing the tires, make sure the arrows point in the
direction in which the
wheels will turn when the vehicle moves for-ward. Any tire whose arrow points in the wrong direction will not
perform to its full
potential.CAUTION Avoid the combined use of different types of tires. Using different t
ypes of tires can affect
vehicle performa
nce and safety.
CAUTIONFront

CAUTIONOnly Mitsubishi Motors Authorized wheels should be used, beca

tem. Use of another type of
wheel risks air leaks
and sensor damage, as
it will not be possible
to install the tire pressure sensor properly.

vinyl and synthetic
leather should be cleaned with an appro- priate cleaner. Cloth fabrics can be cleaned with either upholstery cleaner or a3% solution of gentle soap in lukewarm water. 2. Clean the carpeting with a vacuumcleaner and remove any stains with carpet cleaner. Oil and grea
se can be removed by
lightly dabbing with
a clean white cloth
and spot remover.
N00945600187
1. To clean, lightly wipe the leather with a soft cloth soaked in a 5% solution of gen- tle soap and water.2. To rinse, dip the cloth in fresh water, wring it out well, and wipe off all the soap.3. To preserve and protect, use a leather pro- tecting agent on the genuine leather sur- face.
N00945700058
To protect your vehicle’s finish, wash it oftenand thoroughly. If desired, you may wax your vehicle using a nonabras
ive automobile wax.
N00945800033
Industrial pollution, road tar, bird droppings, tree sap, insect remain
s, sea water and other
foreign matters can damage the finish on yourvehicle. Generally, the longer any foreign material stays on the finish, the worse the damage.Wash your vehicle as soon as possible when- ever the finish gets soiled.
NOTE
Do not use cleaners, conditioners, and pro- tectants containing
silicones or wax.
Such products, when applied to the instru-ment panels or other pa
rts, may cause reflec-
tions on the windshiel
d and obscure vision.
Also, if such products get on the switches ofthe electrical accessories, it may lead to fail- ure of these accessories.
Upholstery
NOTE
If fuzzing is difficult to remove from the seat upholstery, draw a suit
able defuzzing brush
over the surface in
one direction.
Genuine leather
(if so equipped)
NOTE
If genuine leather is we
t with water, wipe it
with a dry, soft cloth. If left damp, mildew may grow. The genuine leather su
rface can be damaged
if brushed with a nylon or synthetic fiberbrush. Organic solvents such as benzine, kerosene, alcohol, gasoline, or acid
or alkaline solvents
can discolor the genuine
leather surface and
should not be used. Genuine leather can
mildew if not kept
clean. Clean up any o
il stains immediately.
The genuine leather surface may harden and shrink if it is exposed to the direct sunlightfor long hours. When your vehicle is parked,place it in the shade as much as possible. When the temperature of the vehicle interior rises in summer, vinyl products left on the genuine leather seat
may deteriorate and
stick to the seat.

Wax your vehicle once or twice a year, or when water does not bead up on the paint. Use a soft cloth to put a small amount of waxon the painted surfaces.
After the wax has
dried, polish with
a dry soft cloth.
Do not wax your vehicle in direct sunlight.You should wax when the painted surfaces are cool.
N00946100046
If painted surfaces ha
ve been severely dam-
aged and lost their original luster and colortone, polish the surface lightly with a fine polishing compound. Avoid limiting your polishing to the damage
d surface only; polish
a somewhat wider area
, moving the polishing
cloth in one direction.
After polishing, flush
the compound from the surface and apply acoat of wax to regain a beautiful luster.
N00946201099
Small cracks and scratches in the paint coatshould be touched up as
soon as possible with
touch-up paint to prevent corrosion. Check body areas facing the road or the tirescarefully for damage to the paint caused by flying stones, etc. The
paint code number for
your vehicle can be found on the vehicle
information code plate located on the front passenger door sill.
N00946301221
Use a sponge or chamois to clean these parts.If the vehicle wax sticks to a gray or blackrough surface of the bumper, molding or lights, the surface may appear white in color. In this case, wipe it off using lukewarm water and a soft cloth or chamois.
Waxing
CAUTION Waxes containing high abrasive compounds should not be used. Th
ese waxes remove rust
and stain effectively fr
om the paintwork, but
are harmful to the finish of the paint, because they also remove paint/clearcoat. They are also harmful to other glossy sur-faces such as the grille, trim, moldings, etc. Do not use gasoline, benzine, kerosene or paint thinners to remove
road tar or other dirt
from the vehicle surface. Do not put wax on the areas having black matte coating because
it can cause uneven
discoloration, patches,
blurs, etc. If these get
wax on them, wipe the wax off right away with a soft clot
h and warm water.
On vehicles with sunr
oof, be careful not to
apply any wax on the
weatherstrip (black
rubber) when waxing the area around thesunroof opening. If stained with wax,
the weatherstrip cannot
maintain a weatherproof seal with the sun-roof.
Polishing Damaged paint
CAUTION
Cleaning plastic parts
CAUTION Do not use a scrubbing brush or other rough scrubber as these may damage the plasticsurface. Do not use wax containing compounds (pol- ishing powder) which ma
y damage the plas-
tic surface. Do not let plastic parts
get soiled with gaso-
line, oil, brake fluids
, engine oils, greases,
paint thinner, and sulfuric acid (battery elec-trolyte), as such substa
nces will cause stains,
cracks, or discoloration. If any of these get on a plastic part, wipethem up with a soft cloth or chamois and a mild solution of soap and water. Then rinse them immediately with water.
