In some areas of the country, snow tires are required for winter driving. If snow tires are required in your area, you must choose snow tires 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 handlingcan be reduced. Even where laws may permit it, snow tires should not be operated
at sustained speeds
over 75 mph (120 km/h).

To check the brake pedal free play (A), turnoff the engine and press the brake pedal sev- eral times with your foot. Then press the pedal down with your fingers until you first feel resistance. Brake pedal free play: .1 to .3 inch (3 to 8 mm) If the free play is not within these limits, take your vehicle to an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of yourchoice for adjustment.
CAUTIONAvoid the combined use of dif- ferent types of tires. Using dif- ferent types of tires can affect vehicle performance and safety.
Snow tires
CAUTION Only Mitsubishi Motors Genuine wheels should be used.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.
Tire chains
CAUTION Tire chains cannot be used on your vehicle. The clearance between
the chains and the
body is not sufficient
to allow proper clear-
ance, and the vehicle body might be dam- aged.

Brake hoses and tubing should be checked for:  Severe surface cracki
ng, scuffing or worn
spots. If the fabric casing of the hose isshowing through any cracks or worn spots in the rubber hose cover, the hose should be replaced. The brakes can fail if thehose wears through.  Improper installation
may cause twisting,
or wheel, tire or
chassis interference.

The best way to keep carbon monoxide gas from entering inside your
vehicle is to have
the engine exhaust syst
em properly serviced.
Have a competent mechanic inspect the com- plete exhaust system
and nearby body areas
for broken, damaged, deteriorated, or mispo- sitioned parts if you no
tice any of the follow-
ing:  A change in the sound of the exhaust sys- tem  The smell of exhaust fumes inside the vehicle
 The underside or rear of the vehicle is damaged
Also check the exhaust system each time the vehicle is raised for l
ubrication, oil changes,
or required service. A
ny open seams or loose
connections could le
t dangerous exhaust
fumes seep into the luggage and passenger compartments.  Check for holes or exhaust gas leaks caused by corrosion or damage.  Check the joints and connections for looseness or exhaust gas leaks. Check the rubber hangers and brackets for damage.

Salt and other chemical
s spread on winter
roads in some geographical areas can have a detrimental effect on the vehicle underbody.You should flush the underbody with a high pressure hose every time you wash the out- side of your vehicle.Take special care to remove mud or other debris which could trap and hold salt and moisture. After washing your vehicle, wipe off all waterdrops from the rubber parts around thedoors to prevent the doors from freezing.
N00946000234
Wax your vehicle once or twice a year, orwhen water does not
bead up on the paint.
Use a soft cloth to put a small amount of wax on 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 surfacesare cool.
N00946100046
If painted surfaces have
been severely dam-
aged and lost their original luster and color tone, 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
CAUTION When washing the underside of your vehicle or the wheels, wear a pair of gloves to pro-tect your hands. Never spray or splash water on the electrical parts in the engine compartment. This maydamage them. Be careful also when washing the underbody to ensure that water does not enter the engine compartment. Avoid automatic car washers that use rotat- ing brushes. These br
ushes may scratch the
paint surface a
nd make it dull.
Scratches are more not
iceable on darker col-
ored vehicles. Some hot water wash
ing equipment uses
high pressure and heat
to clean your vehicle.
Because hot water can da
mage plastics parts
and seep inside your ve
hicle, make sure you
do the following when using such equip-ment:• Keep the washing nozzle at least 28 inches(70 cm) away from the vehicle body.• When washing around the door glass, holdthe nozzle at a distance of more than 28 inches (70 cm) and at a right angle to the glass surface.
 Make sure to do the following when using an automatic car wash, with help from eitherthis manual or the car wash operator, to avoid damaging your vehicle:• Fold the outside
rearview mirrors.
• Remove the antenna.
During cold weather
NOTE
When the door is frozen, opening it by force may tear off or crack the rubber gasket installed around the door. Pour warm water to melt the ice. Be
sure to thoroughly wipe
off the water after opening the door. To pre- vent freezing of the
weatherstripping on the
doors, hood, etc., treat
with silicone lubri-
cant.
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, bl
urs, etc. If these get
wax on them, wipe the wax off right away with a soft clot
h and warm water.

Damaged paint Cleaning plastic parts
CAUTION Do not use a scrubbing brush or other rough scrubber as these may
damage the plastic
surface.
 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 sulfur
ic acid (battery elec-
trolyte), as such substa
nces will cause stains,
cracks, or discoloration.If any of these get on a plastic part, wipe them up with a soft cloth or chamois and a mild solution of soap and water. Then rinsethem immediately with water.

This information is provided in compliance with the requirements of the National High- way Traffic Safety Ad
ministration, Depart-
ment of Transportation. It provides the purchasers and/or prospective purchasers with information on repor
ting safety defects.
DOT quality grades - Al
l passenger vehicle
tires must conform to
Federal Safety Require-
ments in addition to these grades. The spe- cific grade rating in each grade category isshown on the side wall of the tires on your vehicle. The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of
the tire when tested
under controlled conditions on a specifiedgovernment test course
. For example, a tire
graded 150 would wear one and one-half (11/2) times as well on the government course
as a tire graded 100.
The relative performance
of tires depends upon the actual conditions of
their use, however, and may depart signifi- cantly from the norm due to variations indriving habits, service practices and differ- ences in road characteristics and climate. The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B and C. Those grades represent the tire’s ability to
stop on wet pavement as
measured under controlled conditions on specified government te
st surfaces of asphalt
and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction performance. The temperature grades are A (the highest), B and C, representing the ti
re’s resistance to the
generation of heat and it
s ability to dissipate
heat when tested un
der controlled conditions
on a specified indoor
laboratory test wheel.
Sustained high temperature can cause the
material of the tire to
degenerate and reduce
tire life, and excessive temperature can leadto sudden tire failure. The grade C corre- sponds to a level of performance which all passenger car tires must meet under the Fed-eral Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the labora
tory test wheel than
the minimum required by law.
