power steering system
(EPS)” on page 5-51. Always carry the key and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unattended. Always try to park your vehicle in a well lit area.

It is very important to know how much weight your vehicle can carry. This weight is called the vehicle capacity weight and includes theweight of all occupants, cargo, non-
factory-installed options, if any, being towed. The tire and loading information placard located on the driver’s door sill of your vehicle willshow how much weight it may prop- erly carry. It is important to familiarize yourself with the following
terms before load-
ing your vehicle:Vehicle maximum load on the tire:load on an individual tire that isdetermined by distributing to each axle its share of the maximum loaded vehicle weight and divid-ing by two.
Parking with the engine run- ning
WA R N I N G Leaving the engine ru
nning risks injury or
death from accidentally moving the gear-shift lever (manual transaxle) or the selec- tor lever (CVT) or from the accumulation of toxic exhaust fumes in the passengercompartment.
Where you park
WA R N I N G Do not park your vehicle in areas where combustible materials
such as dry grass or
leaves can come in contact with a hotexhaust, since a fire could occur.
Do not keep the steering wheel fully turned for a long time When leaving the vehicle Loading information
WA R N I N GNever overload your vehicle. Overloading can damage your vehicle, adversely affect vehi-cle performance, including handling and braking, cause tire failure, and result in anaccident.

If your vehicle breaks down on the road, move to the shoulder and turn on the hazard warning flashers. If there is no shoulder, orthe shoulder is not safe, drive in the right lane slowly with the haza
rd lights flashing until
you come to a safe stopping place. Keep theflashers flashing. If the engine stops, there will be no power assist to the steering and brakes, making these difficult to use.  The brake booster will not work, so the brakes will not grip well. The brake pedal will be harder to press than usual.  Since there is no power steering assist, the steering wheel will be hard to turn.
Get help from your passengers, bystanders, etc. to push the vehicle
and move it to a safe
area.

cannot be changed to
OFF, perform the following procedure. 1. Move the selector lever to the “P” (PARK) position, and then change the operation mode to OF
F. (For vehicles
with continuously variable transmission(CVT)) 2. One of the other causes could be low bat- tery voltage. If this occurs, the keylessentry system and the F.A.S.T.-key opera- tion will also not operate. Contact an authorized Mitsubish
i Motors dealer.

ad, you can start it with
the battery from anothe
r vehicle using jumper
cables.

at might create an
accidental electrical contact. 2. Position the vehicles close enoughtogether so that the jumper cables can reach, but be sure the vehicles aren’t touching each other.
If the vehicle breaks down If the engine stops/fails When the engine fails at the intersection
If the operation mode can- not be changed to OFF (vehicles equipped with the F.A.S.T.-key) Jump-starting the engine
WA R N I N G To reduce the risk of igniting flammable gas that may be emi
tted from the battery,
carefully read this section before jump-starting the vehicle. Do not try to start you
r vehicle by pushing
or towing. This can cause an accident resulting in serious
injury or death and
can damage the vehicle.NOTE
 Do not use jumper cables if they have dam- age or corrosion.CAUTION Check the other vehicle.
