 When driving on a road covered with snow or ice, use snow tires. Tire chains cannot be used on your vehicle. Theremay be state or local regulations about using snow tires. Always check the regu- lations in your local area before usingthem. Refer to “Snow tires” on page 9-18 and “Tire chains” on page 9-18.  Drive slowly. Do not make sudden starts or stops, sharp turns, or slam on thebrakes.  Allow extra distance between your vehi- cle and the vehicle in front of you, andavoid sudden braking.  If a skid occurs when the accelerator pedal is depressed, take your foot off thepedal. 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 willresult in reduced braking performance.  After parking on snowy or icy roads, it may be difficult to move your vehicle dueto the brake being frozen. Depress the accelerator pedal little by little to move the vehicle when safe to do so.
 Drive as slow as poss
ible when driving on
bumpy, rutted roads or over potholes.

WA R N I N G When trying to rock your vehicle out of a stuck position, make sure that there are no people nearby. The rocking motion can make your vehicle suddenly lurch forward or backward, and injure any bystanders.
On wet roads
CAUTION Avoid flooded roads. Water is often deeper than it looks, and you could be seriously hurt by driving into flood water. When driving in rain, on water-covered roads, or through a car wash, water could getinto the brake discs and make them fail tem- porarily. In such cases, lightly press the brake pedal to see if they are working prop-erly. If they are not, press the pedal lightly several times while driving to dry the brake pads or linings, then check them again. When driving in rain, a layer of water may form between the tires and the road surface(hydroplaning). This loosens your tires’ grip on the road, making it difficult to steer or brake properly. When driving on a wet road:• Drive your vehicle at a safe speed.• Do not drive on worn tires.• Always keep the tires at the correct infla- tion pressures.
On snowy or icy roads
CAUTION Do not depress the accelerator pedal rapidly. The vehicle could start moving when it breaks 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 the tires and wheels. Wheels with low-profile tires or under- inflated tires are especially at risk for dam-age.

 Sidewall: portion of a tire between the tread and bead.  Section width: the li
near distance between
the exteriors of the sidewalls of aninflated tire, excluding elevations due to labeling, decoration, or protective bands.  Bead: the part of the tire that is made of steel wires, wrapped or reinforced by ply cords and that is shaped to fit the rim.  Ply: a layer of rubber-coated parallel cords. Cord: the strands forming the plies in the tire.  Rim: a metal support for a tire or a tire and tube assembly upon which the tire beads are seated.  Rim diameter: nominal diameter of the bead seat.  Groove: the space between two adjacent tread ribs.

We hope you will never be involved in an accident, but there is always that potentialdanger. So, please be sure to buckle up and drive safely.  Remain calm.  Check for injuries. Report all injuries to the police, and, if necessary, call for an ambulance.  Record all the details of the accident. This will provide you with accurate records of the accident for discussions with your insurance company and other personswho may be acting on your behalf.  Understand your repair estimate before approving repairs.  Choosing the repair
shop and the brands
of parts that they use on your vehicle isyour decision.
 Ask for genuine Mitsubishi Motors parts. Many times, to save money, your insur- ance company will recommend imitation parts that do not meet the original specifi-cations of fit, finish, corrosion resistance or workmanship.
The strength and integrity built into your vehicle is the result of a specific design referred to as “Energy Management”. Indi-vidual body parts are designed to act as one unit in the event of an accident. Shock waves are absorbed by protective panels or are chan-neled around the passenger compartment. This important feature is possible because high tensile steel is used in the panels andstructural parts, something that cannot be guaranteed by the manufacturers of imitation parts. All genuine body panels and supportbrackets are designed and constructed as important protection features in the event of an accident. By replacing body parts withimitations, your vehicle may no longer meet original equipment specifications.
