The battery is weaker in cold temperatures. This has to do with its chemical and physical properties and is why a very cold battery, especially one with a low charge, will have ahard time starting your vehicle. It is recommended that you have your battery and charging system checked by an autho-rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair
facility of your choice before the start of cold weather. If necessary, have it charged. This will provide more reliable starting, and longer battery life. To disconnect the battery cable, stop the engine. Disconnect the negative (-) terminalfirst, then the positive (+) terminal. To recon-nect the battery, first connect the positive (+) terminal and then the negative (-) terminal, before starting the vehicle.
WA R N I N G If the battery is dead, be sure to check the battery electrolyte level before connecting booster cables. After checking the battery electrolyte level, make sure the caps are fitted securely. If any of the caps has a loose fit, replace the battery.
During cold weather
Disconnection and connection
NOTE
 Open the terminal cover (A) before discon- necting or connecting the positive (+) termi- nal of the battery.  Loosen the nut (B) and then disconnect the battery cable from the positive (+) terminal.
WA R N I N G Never disconnect the battery while the engine is running, or you could damage the vehicle’s electrical parts. Never short-circuit the battery. This could cause it to overheat and be damaged. Keep sparks, cigarettes, and flames away from the battery because the battery could explode. Electrolyte (battery acid) is made of corro- sive diluted sulfuric
acid. If it spills on
nearby parts, it can crack, stain, or dis-color them. And if it gets on your skin or in your eyes, it can cause burns or blind- ness. Please observe the following han-dling instructions:• If electrolyte gets on plastic parts orother nearby parts, wi
pe it off with a soft
cloth or chamois soaked in a solution of water and neutral detergent then imme-diately rinse the affected parts with plenty of water.• If electrolyte gets on your hands orclothes, rinse thoroughly with water. If electrolyte gets in your eyes, flush themwith water immediately and get immedi- ate medical attention.
 Open doors and windows in any closed space where you may be charging or working with the battery. Always wear protective clothing and gog- gles when working with the battery, or have a skilled automobile technician do it.

Tires 9-12 Vehicle care and maintenance

N00939201664
It is important to familiarize yourself with the following terms:  Cold tire pressure: • The measured pressure after the vehicle has been parked for at least three hours,or • The measured pressure when the vehicle is driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) afterhaving been parked for three hours.
 Maximum pressure: the maximum per- missible cold tire inflation pressure forthis tire.
 Recommended inflation pressure: the inflation pressure for optimum tire perfor- mance.  Intended outboard sidewall: • The sidewall that contains a whitewall, bears white lettering or bears manufac- turer, brand, and/or model name moldingthat is higher or deeper than the same molding on the other sidewall of the tire, or• The outward facing sidewall of an asym-metrical tire that has a particular side that must always face outward when mounted on a vehicle.
 Passenger car tire: a tire intended for use on passenger cars,
multipurpose passen-
ger vehicles, and trucks that have a grossvehicle weight rating (GVWR) of 10,000 pounds or less.  Light truck (LT) tire: a tire designated by its manufacturer as primarily intended for use on lightweight trucks or multipurpose passenger vehicles. Tread: portion of a tire that comes into contact with the road.  Tread rib: a tread section running circum- ferentially around a tire.  Tread separation: pulling away of the tread from the tire carcass. Carcass: the tire structure, except tread and sidewall rubber which, when inflated, bears the load.
 If you are quick-charging your battery, first disconnect the battery cables. In order to prevent a short-circuit, be sure to disconnect the negative (-) terminalfirst, and reconnect it last. If the electrolyte level is very low, have the battery checked at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facil- ity of your choice. Battery posts, terminals and related acces- sories contain lead and lead compounds.Wash hands after handling.NOTE
 Check each battery terminal for corrosion. You can prevent further corrosion by wash- ing with a solution of baking soda and water.Grease the posts and clamps after cleaning or tightening them.  Ensure the battery is securely installed and cannot be moved. Also check each terminal for tightness.  If you will not be driv
ing your vehicle for a
long period of time, remove the battery and store it in a place where the battery fluid will not freeze. The battery only should be storedwith a full charge.  Before cleaning the battery, tighten all the filler port caps to keep dirt and moisture out.WA R N I N G
Tires
WA R N I N G Driving with tires that are worn, damaged or improperly inflated is dangerous. These tire conditions will adversely affect vehicle performance.These tire conditions can also cause a tread separation or blowout which may result in an accident causing seriousinjury or death. Tires, including the spare tire, degrade over time with age even when they are not being used. It is recommended that tires over 6 yearsold generally be replaced even if damage is not obvious.

Check the hose surfaces for any heat and mechanical damage, hard and brittle rubber,cracking, tears, cuts and abrasions. Pay spe- cial attention to the hoses closest to high heat sources such as the exhaust manifold. Checkall the hose connections, such as clamps and couplings, to make sure they are secure and that there are no leaks. If you see any wear ordamage, replace the hoses immediately.
N00950100050
Have the valve clearance checked at anauthorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer at themileage specified in the “WARRANTY AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL”. If the engine sounds abnormally loud, haveadjustments made by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
N00941300173
Check these regularly for damage or leaks in the fuel lines and connections. Check the fuel tank filler cap for damage or looseness. Pay special attention to the fuel lines closest to
high heat sources such as the exhaust mani- fold.
N00941400187
If the fuel-vapor vent line is clogged or dam- aged, the fuel-vapor mixture will escape, pol- luting the air.Have the system checked at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer at the mileage spec- ified in the “WARRANTY AND MAINTE-NANCE MANUAL”.

The next pages list the maintenance servicerecommended by Mitsubishi Motors Corpo- ration. In addition to the general maintenance that needs to be perfor
med at the times listed,
there are other parts which do not usually need regular maintenance. But, if any of these parts stops working prop- erly, your vehicle performance could suffer.Have these items checked if you notice a problem with them. If you have any questions, see your autho- rized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer for assistance.
N00941600059
Good brakes are essential for safe driving. Check the brake pads for wear. For good braking performance, replace the brake padswith the same type pads as the originals.
N00941700076
Brake hoses and tubing should be checkedfor:  Severe surface cracking, scuffing or worn spots. If the fabric casing of the hose is showing through any cracks or worn spotsin the rubber hose cover, the hose should be replaced. The brakes can fail if the hose wears through. Improper installation may cause twisting, or wheel, tire or chassis interference.

1. Before replacing a fuse, always turn off the electrical item connected to the fuse and turn the ignition switch to the “OFF”position or put the operation mode in OFF. 2. There is a fuse remover (A) in the enginecompartment fuse block.
3. Clamp it on the fuse you wish to remove, and pull the fuse straight out from the fuseblock. 4. Use the fuse location diagrams and the matching tables, to check the fuse that is related to the problem. If the fuse is not blown, something else must be causingthe problem. Have the system inspectedby your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.
5. Insert a new fuse of the same capacity securely into the appropriate slot.
