screen wipers.Tyre pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) E00637100282
The tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS)
uses tyre inflation pressure sensors (A) on the wheels to monitor the tyre inflation pressures.
The system only indicates when a tyre is sig-
nificantly under-inflated.
The base tyre pressure can be set at desired value by the driver with the reset function ex-
ecution. (The low pressure warning threshold is set based on the reset.)
The tyre inflation pressure sensor IDs for two
sets of tyres can be registered by aMITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point, and the valid ID set can be switched by the Multi-information display switch (It’s
beneficial in case of seasonal tyre change be-
tween summer tyre and winter tyre.)NOTEl The tyre pressure monitoring system
(TPMS) is not a substitute for regularlychecking tyre inflation pressures.
Be sure to check the tyre inflation pressures as described in “Tyres” on page 11-10.
l The tyre inflation pressure sensor (B) is in-
stalled in the illustrated location.
• On vehicles with the type 1 sensor which
has the metallic air valve (C), replace
grommet and washer (D) with the new ones when the tyre is replaced.

NOTE•On vehicles with the type 2 sensor which
has the rubber air valve (E), replace the rubber air valve (E) with the new one
when the tyre is replaced.

MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.Tyre pressure monitoring sys-
tem warning lamp/display
E00637200078
When the operation mode is put in ON, the
tyre pressure monitoring system warning
lamp normally illuminates and goes off a few seconds later.

If one or more of the vehicle tyres is signifi-
cantly under-inflated, the warning lamp will remain illuminated while the operation modeis in ON.
Refer to “If the warning lamp/display illumi-
nates while driving” on page 7-91 and take
the necessary measures.
NOTEl In addition, the warning display will be dis-
played on the information screen in the mul-
ti-information display.CAUTIONl If the warning lamp does not illuminate
when the operation mode is put in ON, it
means that the tyre pressure monitoring sys- tem (TPMS) is not working properly. Have
the system inspected by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
In such situations, a malfunctioning of the system may be preventing the monitoring of the tyre pressure. Avoid sudden braking,
sharp turning and high-speed driving.
l If a malfunction is detected in the tyre pres-
sure monitoring system (TPMS), the warn-
ing lamp will blink for approximately 1 mi- nute and then remain continuously illumina-
ted. The warning lamp will issue further
warnings each time the Plug-in Hybrid EV
System is restarted as long as the malfunc- tion exists.
Check to see whether the warning lamp goes
off after few minutes driving.
If it then goes off during driving, there is no
problem.
However, if the warning lamp does not go off, or if it blinks again when the Plug-in
Hybrid EV System is restarted, have the ve- hicle inspected by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
In such situations, a malfunctioning of the system may be preventing the monitoring of the tyre pressure. For safety reasons, when
the warning lamp appears while driving,
avoid sudden braking, sharp turning and high-speed driving.

NOTElIn addition, the warning display will be dis-
played on the information screen in the mul-
ti-information display.
Each tyre, including the spare (if so equip-
ped), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recom-
mended by the vehicle manufacturer on the tyre inflation pressure label. (If your vehiclehas tyres of a different size than the size indi-
cated on the tyre inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tyre inflationpressure for those tyres.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has
been equipped with the tyre pressure moni- toring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low
tyre pressure telltale when one or more of
your tyres is significantly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tyre pressure tell- tale illuminates, you should stop and checkyour tyres as soon as possible, and inflate
them to the proper pressure. Driving on a sig- nificantly under-inflated tyre causes the tyre
to overheat and can lead to tyre failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency
and tyre tread life, and may affect the vehi-
cle’s handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is not a substitute for proper
tyre maintenance, and it is the driver’s re- sponsibility to maintain correct tyre pressure,even if under-inflation has not reached thelevel to trigger illumination of the tyre pres-
sure monitoring system (TPMS) low tyre
pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a warning lamp to indicate when the system is
not operating properly.
The warning lamp is combined with the low
tyre pressure telltale.
When the system detects a malfunction, the
telltale will flash for approximately one mi- nute and then remain continuously illumina- ted. This sequence will continue upon subse-
quent vehicle start-ups as long as the mal-
function exists.
When the warning lamp is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or signal
low tyre pressure as intended.The tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS)
malfunctions may occur for a variety of rea-
sons, including the installation of replace- ment or alternate tyres or wheels on the vehi-cle that prevent the tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) from functioning properly.
Always check the tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) malfunction telltale after re-
placing one or more tyres or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or al- ternate tyres and wheels allow the tyre pres-
sure monitoring system (TPMS) to continue to function properly.If the warning lamp/display il-
luminates while driving
E00637300079
1. If the warning lamp illuminates, avoid
hard braking, sharp steering manoeuvres
and high speeds. You should stop and adjust the tyres to the proper inflationpressure as soon as possible. Adjust the spare tyre at the same time. Refer to
“Tyres” on page 11-10.
NOTEl In addition, the warning display will be dis-
played on the information screen in the mul-
ti-information display.
