:ARN,NGzDo not attempt to remove the radiator cap
while the engine is hot.
3. Confirm that the cooling fans are turn-
ing. If the fans are not turning, stop the
engine immediately and have it checked.
A- Cooling fans
B- Caution label
*: Front of the vehicle:ARN,NGz Be careful not to get your hands or clothes
caught in the cooling fan.
4. When the bar graph in the engine cool-
ant temperature warning display in the
multi-information display drops, stop the
engine.
5. Check the coolant level in the reserve
tank (C).
:ARN,NGz If there is none, make sure that the engine
has cooled down before removing the ra- diator cap (D), because hot steam or boil-ing water otherwise will gush from the filler port and may scald you.
6. Fill the reserve tank with coolant as nee-
ded. (Refer to the “Maintenance” sec-
tion.)
CAUT,ONz Do not add coolant while the engine is hot.
Suddenly adding cold coolant could damage
the engine. Wait for the engine to cool down, then add coolant a little at a time.

Tyre repair kit*
This kit enables emergency repair of a small
puncture in the tread area of a tyre that has run over a nail, screw, or similar object.
:ARN,NGz The tyre repair kit may not permanently
seal a punctured tyre.
z Use only the
MITSUBISHI genuine tire
repair kit. Sealant in other repair kits may not sufficiently seal the tire puncture.Tyre repair kit storage
The tyre repair kit is stowed in the luggage
compartment.

How to use the tyre repair kitCAUT,ONz The tyre sealant can cause health damage if
swallowed. If you accidentally swallow it,
drink as much water as possible and imme-
diately consult a doctor.
z If the tyre sealant gets in your eyes or on
your skin, rinse with lots of water. If you
still sense an abnormality, consult a doctor.
z Consult a doctor immediately if any allergic
reactions occur.
z Do not allow children to touch the tyre seal-
ant.
z Do not breathe in the vapours of tyre sealant.NOTEz
The tyre sealant cannot be used in any of the
situations listed below. If any of these situa-
tions occurs, please contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or an-
other specialist.

NOTE

CAUT,ONzIf there is any air left in the tyre when you
remove the valve insert, the valve insert may
fly out and injure you. Make sure the tyre
contains no air before removing the valve in- sert.
8. Shake the tyre sealant bottle well.
NOTEz In cold conditions (when the ambient tem-
perature is 0

NOTEzWhen removing and screwing in the valve
insert using the valve remover, turn the valve remover by hand. Using a tool to turn the valve remover could damage it.12. After injecting the sealant, securely fit
the valve remover (E) into the end of the filler hose (J) to prevent sealant from
leaking from the empty bottle.
13. Pull out the compressor hose (K) from
the side of the tyre compressor, and then
securely attach the hose to the tyre valve (D).
14. Place the compressor (L) with its air
pressure gauge (M) on top.
Pull out the compressor

CAUT,ONzThe supplied compressor is designed only
for inflation of passenger vehicle tyres.
z The compressor is designed to run on a vehi-
cle

CAUT,ONzDo not affix the sticker anywhere except the
specified position on the pad of the steeringwheel. Affixing the sticker in an incorrect
position could prevent the SRS airbag from working normally.
z Be sure to check the tyre pressure for confir-
mation that the emergency repair procedure
is complete.
18. When you have inflated the tyre to the
specified pressure, stow the compressor,
bottle, and other items in the vehicle and
promptly start driving the vehicle so that the tyre sealant can spread evenly in the
tyre. Drive with great care. Do not ex- ceed a speed of 80 km/h (50 mph). Ob-
serve local speed limits.
CAUT,ONz If you sense any abnormality while driving,
stop the vehicle and contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or an-
other specialist. Otherwise the tyre pressure
may drop before the emergency repair pro- cedure is completed, rendering the vehicle
unsafe.NOTEz Driving faster than 80 km/h (50 mph)
can
make the vehicle vibrate.19. After driving for 10 minutes or 5 km
(3 miles), check the tyre pressure using
the air pressure gauge on the compres- sor.
If the tyre pressure is not sufficient, in-
flate the tyre to the specified pressure again and drive the vehicle carefully
without exceeding a speed of 80 km/h
(50 mph).CAUT,ONz If the tyre pressure is lower than the mini-
mum permitted pressure (1.3 bar {130 kPa`), the tyre cannot successfully be
repaired with the tyre sealant. Do not drive the vehicle any further. Contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point or another specialist.
20. After driving for 10 minutes or 5 km
(3 miles), check the tyre pressure using
the air pressure gauge on the compres- sor. If the tyre pressure has apparently
not dropped, the emergency repair pro- cedure is complete. You must still not
exceed a speed of 80 km/h (50 mph) .
Observe local speed limits.
NOTEz If the tyre pressure has dropped below the
specified level when you check it at the end
of the repair procedure, do not drive the ve- hicle any further. Contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or an-
other specialist.
z In cold conditions (when the ambient tem-
perature is 0

NOTEzA tyre in which puncture sealant has been
used should ideally be replaced with a newone. If you wish to have such a tyre properly
repaired for reuse, please contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point or another specialist. Note that a
proper repair is impossible following an emergency repair if the puncture hole cannotbe located.
z Wipe away any sealant that gets on the
wheel. Provided the valve is replaced with a
new one, the wheel can be reused.
z The manufacturer is unable to guarantee that
all tyre punctures can be repaired with the
tyre repair kit, in particular cuts or perfora- tions with a diameter of more than 4 mm or
away from the tyre

Spare wheel information*
Check the air pressure of the spare tyre fre-
quently and make sure it is ready for emer- gency use at any time.

Maintaining the spare wheel at the highest
specified air pressure will ensure that it can always be used under any conditions (city/ high-speed driving, varying load weight,
etc.).
The spare wheel is stored beneath the lug-
gage floor board of the luggage compartment.
CAUT,ONz The pressure should be periodically checked
and maintained at the specified pressure while the tyre is stowed.
Driving with an insufficient tyre pressure
can lead to an accident. If you have no choice but to drive with an insufficient tyre
pressure, keep your speed down and inflate the tyre to the correct pressure as soon as
possible. (Refer to “Tyre inflation pressures” on page 10-10.)
z When the tread wear indicators appear, the
tyre must be replaced.
Refer to “Wheel condition” on page 10-11.Temporary spare wheel (spare
wheel with a speed limit label)*
The T155/90D16 size spare wheel is stored
beneath the luggage floor board of the lug-
gage compartment. It is designed to save space in the luggage compartment and its
light weight makes it easy to handle in the event of a flat tyre.
CAUT,ONz The temporary spare wheel is for temporary
use only and should be removed as soon as the original wheel can be repaired or re-
placed. (For vehicles that are equipped with a tyre pressure monitoring system, while the
temporary spare wheel is being used, the
tyre pressure monitoring system will not
function properly.)
z The vehicle must not be driven at speeds in
excess of 80 km/h (50 mph) while using thetemporary spare wheel.
z The
T155/90D16 size spare wheel is not as
good as a standard wheel in controllability
and stability. When the temporary spare wheel is used, avoid quick starts, suddenbraking and sharp steering.
The tyre size of the 215/70R16 size tempo-
rary spare tyre is different from that of the standard tyre. When the temporary spare
tyre is used, avoid quick starts, sudden brak-
ing and sharp steering.CAUT,ONz The temporary spare wheel is specifically
designed for your vehicle and it should not
be used on any other vehicle.
When you purchase a 215/70R16 size spare
wheel, be sure to purchase the type designed
specially for your vehicle from your
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
z Do not use tyre chains with your temporary
spare wheel. Because of the smaller tyresize, a tyre chain will not fit properly. This
could cause damage to the wheel and result in loss of the chain.
If a front tyre becomes flat when using tyre
chains, first replace a rear wheel with the temporary spare wheel and then use the re-
moved rear wheel to replace the flat front
wheel so that you can continue to use the chains.
