When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the ope
ration mode is put in
ON, the tire pressure monitoring system
warning light normally
illuminates and goes
off a few seconds later. If one or more of the vehicle tires (except for the spare tire) is significantly under-inflated, the warning light will remain illuminated while the ignition switch is in the “ON” posi-tion or the operation mode is put in ON. Refer to “If the warning light / display illumi- nates while driving” on
page 5-143 and take
the necessary measures.
NOTE
 The tire pressure monitoring system is not a substitute for regularly
checking tire infla-
tion pressures.Be sure to check the tire inflation pressures as described in “Tires” on page 9-16.  The tire inflation pressure sensor (B) is installed in the illustrated location. • On vehicles with Type
1 sensor which has
the metallic air valve (C), replace grommet and washer (D) with the new ones when thetire is replaced. • On vehicles with Type

Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recom-mended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire in
flation pressure label.
(If your vehicle has tires of a different sizethan the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pres
sure label, you should
determine the proper ti
re inflation pressure
for those tires.) As an added safety fe
ature, your vehicle has
been equipped with a ti
re pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is significan
tly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pressure tell- tale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as
possible, and inflate
them to the proper pressure. Driving on a sig- nificantly under-inflated
tire causes the tire to
overheat and can lead to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, a
nd may affect the vehi-
cle’s handling and stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’sresponsibility to mainta
in correct tire pres-
sure, even if under-inf
lation has not reached
the level to trigger illumination of the TPMSlow tire pressure telltale. Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indica
tor to indicate when
the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale.When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one min- ute and then remain continuously illuminated.This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as
long as the malfunction
exists.When the malfunction indicator is illumi- nated, the system may not
be able to detect or
signal low tire pressure as intended.TPMS malfunctions may
occur for a variety
of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on thevehicle that prevent the TPMS from function- ing properly. Always check the TPMS mal- function telltale after
replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels
CAUTION If the tire pressure monitoring system warn- ing light does not illumi
nate when the igni-
tion switch is turned to the “ON” position orthe operation mode is put in ON, it means that the tire pressure monitoring system is not working properly. Have the systeminspected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. In such situations,
a malfunctioning of the
system may be preventing the monitoring of the tire pressure. Avoid sudden braking, sharp turning and high-speed driving. If a malfunction is detected in the tire pres- sure monitoring system, the tire pressuremonitoring system warn
ing light will blink
for approximately 1 minute and then remain continuously illuminated. The warning lightwill issue further warnings each time the engine is restarted as
long as the malfunction
exists.Check to see whether
the warning light goes
off after few minutes driving. If it then goes off during driving, there is noproblem. However, if the warning light does not go off, or if it blinks again when the engine isrestarted, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. In such situations,
a malfunctioning of the
system may be preventing the monitoring of the tire pressure. For safety reasons, when the warning light appears while driving,avoid sudden braking, sharp turning and high-speed driving.

1. If the tire pressure monitoring systemwarning light illumi
nates, avoiding hard
braking, sharp steering maneuvers and high speeds. You should stop and adjust the tires to the proper inflation pressure as soon as possible. Adjust the spare tire atthe same time. Refer to “Tires” on page 9-16.
2. If the tire pressure monitoring system warning light remains illuminated afteryou have been driving for approximately 20 minutes after you adjust the tire infla- tion pressure, one or more of the tires mayhave a puncture. Inspect the tire and if it has a puncture, have it repaired by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer assoon as possible.
The tire pressure monitoring system may not work normally in the following circum- stances:  A wireless facility or device using the same frequency is near the vehicle.  Snow or ice is stuck inside the fenders and/or on the wheels. The tire inflation pres
sure sensor’s battery
is dead.  Wheels other than Mitsubishi genuine wheels are being used.  Wheels that are not fitted with tire infla- tion pressure sensors are being used.

NOTE
 In addition, the warni
ng display is displayed
on the information screen in the multi-infor- mation display.  When inspecting or adjusting the tire pres- sure, do not apply excessive force to the valve stem to avoid breakage.  After inspecting or adju
sting the tire pres-
sure, always reinstall the valve cap on thevalve stem. Without the valve cap, dirt or moisture could get into the valve, resulting in damage to thetire inflation pressure sensor.  Do not use metal valve caps, which may cause a metal reaction, resulting in corrosion and damage of the tire inflation pressure sen- sors.
 Once adjustments have
been made, the warn-
ing light will go off after a few minutes ofdriving.WA R N I N G If the warning light / display illuminates while you are driving,
avoid hard braking,
sharp steering maneuvers and high speeds.Driving with an under-inflated tire adversely affects vehicle performance and can result in an accident.CAUTION If a tire has a puncture,
replace that tire with
the spare tire. Driving on a punctured tirecould lead to an accident. The warning light / di
splay may not illumi-
nate immediately in the
event of a tire blow-
out or rapid leak.NOTE
NOTE
 To avoid the risk of da
mage to the tire infla-
tion pressure sensors, have any puncturedtire repaired by an authorized MitsubishiMotors dealer. If the tir
e repair is not done by
an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer, it is not covered by your warranty.  Do not use an aerosol puncture-repair spray on any tire.Such a spray could damage the tire inflation pressure sensors. Have any puncture repaired by an authorizedMitsubishi Motors dealer.  Using the tire repair kit may damage the tire inflation pressure sensor. The vehicle must promptly be inspected and repaired by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer afterusing the tire repair kit.

Your vehicle has been designed for both nor- mal and occasional off-road use. However, avoid driving the vehicle through areas wherethe tires may get stuck in deep sand or mud as your vehicle is designe
d primarily for use on
pavement, unlike a conventional off-roadvehicle. Keep in mind that 2-wheel drive vehicles are less capable than 4-wh
eel drive vehicles for
driving on muddy, slippery, wet or snow-cov- ered roads. Utility vehicles have
higher ground clearance
and a narrower track, which enables them toperform in a wide variety of off-road situa- tions. Because of the higher ground clear- ance, these vehicles have a higher center ofgravity, which makes them handle differently than ordinary vehicles when driving on pave- ment. They are not designed to maneuver orcorner at the same speed on pavement as con- ventional 2-wheel driv
e passenger cars any
more than low-slung sports cars are designed
to perform satisfactorily in off-road condi- tions.Always drive safely
and steer the vehicle
carefully. Avoid operating the vehicle in a manner that might require sharp turns orabrupt maneuvers. As wi
th other vehicles of
this type, failure to operate this vehicle cor- rectly can result in lo
ss of control or vehicle
rollover. In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is sig- nificantly more likely to die than a person wearing a seat belt. Be
fore starting the vehi-
cle, always make cert
ain that you and all your
passengers are properly wearing their seat belts (with children in the rear seat, in appro- priate restraints).
N00628801191
Fuel economy is depe
ndent on many factors.
Your personal driving habits can have a sig-nificant effect on your fuel consumption. Several recommendations
for achieving the
greatest fuel economy are listed below.  Whenever accelerating from a stop, always accelerate
slowly and smoothly.
 When parked for even a short period, do not idle the engine. Shut it off. Plan your trips to avoid unnecessary stops.
 Keep your tires inflated to the recom- mended pressures. When driving a 4-wheel drive vehicle on highways or dry improved roads, set the drive mode to “4WD ECO” or “4WDAUTO” (Electronically controlled 4WD), or “AWC ECO” or “NORMAL” (S- AW C ) . For freeway driving, maintain a speed of approximately 50 mph (80 km/h) when traffic, roadway and weather conditions safely permit.  Keep your air filter clean and your vehicle lubricated according
to the recommenda-
tions in this manual.  Always keep your ve
hicle well main-
tained. A poorly maintained engine wastes fuel and costs money.  Never overload your vehicle.
N00628900049
Drunk driving is one of the most frequent causes of accidents.Your driving ability ca
n be seriously impaired
even with blood alcohol levels far below the legal minimum. If you
have been drinking,
don’t drive. Ride with a designated non- drinking driver, call a cab or a friend, or use public transportation. Drinking coffee or tak-ing a cold shower will not make you sober.
Driving precaution
WA R N I N G Utility vehicles have
a significantly higher
rollover rate than othe

For a safer and more enjoyable trip, always check for the following:  Before starting the vehicle, make certain that you and all passengers are seated andwearing their seat
belts properly (with
children in the rear seat, in appropriate restraints), and that all the doors and theliftgate are locked.
 Move the driver’s seat as far backward as possible, while keeping good visibility,and good control of the steering wheel, brakes, accelerator, and controls. Check the instrument panel indicators and multi-information display
for any possible prob-
lem.  Similarly, the front
passenger seat should
also be moved as fa
r back as possible.
 Make sure that infants and small children are properly restrained in accordance with all laws and
regulations.
Check these by selecting the defroster mode, and set the blower swit
ch on high. You should
be able to feel the air blowing against thewindshield. Refer to “Defrosti
ng or defogging (wind-
shield, door windows)” on page 7-13 Check all the tires for heavy tread wear or uneven wear patterns. Look for stones, nails,glass, or other objects
stuck in the tread. Look
for any tread cuts or
sidewall cracks. Check
the wheel nuts for tightness, and the tires(including spare tire) for proper pressure.
Replace your tires before they are heavily worn out.As your vehicle is equi
pped with a tire pres-
sure monitoring system, there is a risk of damage to the tire inflation pressure sensorswhen the tire is replaced on the rim. Tire replacement should, onl
y, be performed by an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. Have someone watch wh
ile you turn all the
exterior lights on and off. Also check the turn signal indicators and hi
gh-beam indicators on
the instrument panel. Check the ground under the vehicle after parking overnight, for
fuel, water, oil, or
other leaks. Make sure
all the fluid levels are
correct. Also, if you
can smell fuel, you need
to find out why imme
diately and have it
fixed.
