After operating the vehicle in rough road con- ditions, be sure to perform the followinginspection and maintenance procedures:  Check that the vehicle has not been dam- aged by rocks, gravel, etc.  Carefully wash the vehicle with water.
Drive the vehicle sl
owly while lightly
depressing the brake pedal in order to dryout the brakes. If the brakes still do not function properly, contact an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facil-ity of your choice as soon as possible to have the brakes checked.  Remove the insects, dr
ied grass, etc. clog-
ging the radiator core.  After driving through water, check the engine, transaxle and differential oil. If the oil or grease is milky or cloudy because of water cont
amination, it must
be replaced with new oil.  Check the inside of the vehicle. If water entry is found, dry the carpet etc. Inspect the headlights. If water is in the headlight housing, have it drained at an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer or a
repair facility of your choice.

Since the driving torque can be applied to thefour wheels, the driving performance of the vehicle when operating in 4-wheel drive is greatly affected by the
condition of the tires.
Pay close attenti
on to the tires.
 Install only the specified tires on all wheels. Refer to “Tires and wheels” onpage 11-7.  Be sure all four tires and wheels are the same size and type.When it is necessary to replace any of the tires or wheels, replace all four.  All tires should be ro
tated before the wear
difference between the front and rear tires is recognizable.
Good vehicle performance cannot be expected if there is a difference in wear between tires. Refer to “Tire rotation” on page 9-21.  Check the tire inflation pressure regularly.
CAUTIONNever drive through water that is deep enough to cover wheel hubs, axles or exhaustpipe. Do not change th
e selector lever posi-
tion while driving through water. Frequent driving through water can adversely affect the life
span of the vehicle;
consult an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair faci
lity of your choice and
take the necessary measures to prepare,inspect, and repair the vehicle. After driving through water, apply the brakes to be sure they are
functioning properly. If
the brakes are wet and not functioning prop- erly, dry them out by driving slowly whilelightly depressing the brake pedal. Inspect each part of the vehicle carefully.

Cautions on the handling of 4-wheel drive vehicles Tires and wheels
CAUTION Always use tires of th
e same size, type, and
brand that have no wear differences. Using tires of different size,
type, brands or degree
of wear, will increase the differential oil tem- perature and result in possible damage to the driving system. Further, the drive train willbe subject to excessi
ve loading, possibly
leading to oil leakage,
component seizure, or
other serious failures.

you give extra attention to the following areas, 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 of other 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 as sudden 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 right fuel.
N00629400445
 Check the battery. At the same time, check the terminals and wiring. Duringextremely cold weather, the battery will not be as strong. Also, the battery power level may drop beca
use more power is
used for cold starting and driving.
Before driving the vehicle, check to see if the 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-up time to distribute oil to all cylinders. Then drive your vehicle slowly.Stay at low speeds at first so that the transaxle, transfer case and rear axle oil have 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 Life Coolant Premium or equivalent.Please read this section in conjunction with the “Engine coolant” on page 9-9.

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 AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL”. Check the brake system while driving at a low speed immediately
after starting, espe-
cially when the brakes are wet, to confirm they 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, or after 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 hydrogen gas. Any spark or flame can cause the bat- tery to explode, which could cause serious injury or death.Always wear protecti
ve clothes and a face
mask when working with your battery, or let a skilled mechanic do it.
WA R N I N G Never open the radiator cap when the radiator is hot. You could be seriouslyburned.

4. If you see steam or spray coming from under the hood, turn off the engine.5. If you do not see stea
m or spray coming
from under the hood, leave the engine on until the high coolant temperature warn-ing goes off. After the high coolant tem- perature warning has gone off, you can start driving again. If the high coolanttemperature warning stays on, turn off the engine. 6. When you do not see any more steam or spray, open the hood. Look for obvious leaks, such as a split radiator hose. Becareful as components will be hot. Any leak source must be repaired. 7. If there is no obvious leak source, checkthe coolant level in the engine coolant reserve tank. If there is
none, or if it is too
low, slowly add coolant.
8. If the engine coolant reserve tank needs coolant, you will probably also need toadd coolant to the radiator. Do not loosen or remove the radiator cap until the engine has cooled down. 9. Start the engine, a
nd slowly add coolant,
up to the bottom of the filler neck. Use plain water if you have to (and replace itwith the right coolant as soon as possible).
10. Replace the radiator cap and tighten it
fully. Check the engine coolant tempera-ture display on the mu
lti information dis-
play (Color liquid crystal display type) or the high coolant temperature warninglight (Mono-color liqui
d crystal display
type). You can start driving again when the high coolant temperature warningdoes not come on.
11. Have the system in
spected by your autho-
rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repairfacility of your choice.

WA R N I N G Before raising the en
gine hood, check to
see if there is steam or spray coming fromunder the hood. Steam or spray coming from an overheated en
gine could seriously
scald you.Do not open the hood until there is no steam or spray.
WA R N I N G Removing the radiat
or cap could scald
you with escaping hot water or steam. When checking the radiator level, coverthe cap with a cloth before trying to remove it. Turn it slowly counterclock- wise, without pressing down, to the firstnotch. The pressure in the system will then be let out. When the pressure is COM- PLETELY LET OUT, press down andkeep turning the cap counterclockwise until it comes off.

The engine coolant reserve tank (A) lets youquickly see when you need to add coolant. When the engine is cold
, the level of the cool-
ant in the reserve tank should be between theFULL and LOW marks. The radiator usually stays full so there is no reason to remove the radiator cap (B) except when you check the coolant freeze point or replace the antifreeze coolant.
Mitsubishi Motors Genuine Coolant provides excellent protection
against corrosion and
rust formation on all me
tals, including alumi-
num, and prevents cl
ogs in some parts of
engine.If you need to add coolant often, or if the level in the reserve
tank does not drop when
the engine cools, the
cooling system should
be pressure-tested for leaks. Take your vehi- cle to an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of
your choice for testing.
Engine coolant To check the coolant level
*: Front of the vehicleTo add coolant Use “Mitsubishi Motors
Genuine Super Long

methanol antifreeze or
any engine coolants th
at contain them. Using
the wrong antifreeze can corrode aluminumparts.

The radiator cap must be
sealed tight to pre-
vent losing coolant, which may result in engine damage. Only use a Mitsubishi Motors Genuine Parts radiator cap, or anapproved equivalent.
 Do not overfill the reserve tank.  Your vehicle uses a special radiator cap that stays sealed and lets the coolant flow from the reserve tank back to the radiator when the engine cools down. If you needto change the cap, use the exact same kind.  Check the coolant freeze point in the radi- ator with the proper gauge, and only when it is safe. If you add antifreeze, the con- tents of the reserve tank must be protectedagainst freezing.  Keep the front of the radiator and con- denser clean. If the engine coolant temperature does not rise after the engine is warmed-up, take your vehicle to an au
thorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice to have the thermostat checked, and replaced if necessary.
N00937901494
The air cleaner filter
will get dirty and dusty
from use and not filter
properly. Replace it
with a new filter using the schedule in the“WARRANTY AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL”. 1. For 2.4 L models, remove the two clips (A), then remove the Air duct (B). 2. For 2.4 L models, while holding down the tab (C), pull out the connector (D).
 The required concentrati
on of anti-freeze dif-
fers depending on the
expected ambient tem-
perature.Above -31 °F (-35 °C): 50 % concentration of anti-freeze Below -31 °F (-35 °C): 60 % concentrationof anti-freeze You can check the concentration level with a gauge from an automotive supply store, oryour authorized Mitsubi
shi Motors dealer or
service station can check it for you. Do not use water to adjust the concentration of coolant. Do not top off the tank with plain water only. Water by itself boils at a lower temperature and does not stop rust or freezing. If thewater freezes, it will
damage your cooling
system. Do not use tapwater. It can cause corrosion and rust.
Radiator cap
CAUTION
WA R N I N G Wait for the engine to cool down before opening the radiator
cap. Otherwise hot
steam or boiling c
oolant could spray up
from the radiator and scald you.
