3-196 Features and controls
3Headlight leveling switch
(if so equipped)
N00537100105
The direction of the headlight beam (the direction in which the
light shines) alters according to the number of people and the
load in the vehicle. Lower the headlight angle if it is too high
due to the number of people and/or the load in the vehicle so
that the headlights’ glare does not distract the drivers of
approaching vehicles. First set the light switch to the “ ”
position, then turn the headlight leveling switch knob to lower
the beam. The greater the number on the headlight leveling
switch knob, the lower the beam will point.
Set the switch to the appropriate position so that the headlight
beam is level with the road.
NOTE
Start adjusting when the knob is at the “0” position (when
the beam is at its highest).

Keep the knob in the “0” position except when using the
knob to lower the headlight beam angle.

Always return the knob to the “0” position when the load
is removed and the people have left the vehicle.
WA R N I N G
!
To avoid distraction while driving, always perform
headlight adjustments before vehicle operation.

If you press the flasher switch, the front and rear turn signals

If you need to leave your vehicle, the flashers will keep work-
ing after the ignition switch is removed or the operation mode
is put in OFF.NOTE
If the flashers are used for several hours, the battery will
run down. This could make it difficult or impossible to
restart your vehicle.

(if so equipped)
N00522800393
The front fog lights illuminate only when the headlights are on
low beam.

4-6 Driving safety

TiresCheck all the tires for heavy tread wear or uneven wear pat-
terns. 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 equipped with a tire pressure monitoring
system, there is a risk of damage to the tire inflation pressure
sensors when the tire is replaced on the rim. Tire replacement
should, therefore, be performed only by an authorized Mitsub-
ishi Motors dealer.LightsHave someone watch while you turn all the exterior lights on
and off. Also check the turn signal indicators and high-beam
indicators on the instrument panel.Fluid leaksCheck 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
immediately and have it fixed.
Safe driving techniques
N00629200094
Even this vehicle’s safety equipment, and your safest driving,
cannot guarantee that you can avoid an accident or injury.
However, if you give extra attention to the following areas, you
can better protect yourself and your passengers:

Drive defensively. Be aware of traffic, road and weather
conditions. Leave plenty of stopping distance between
your vehicle and the vehicle ahead.

Before changing lanes, check your mirrors and use your
turn-signal light.

While driving, watch the behavior of other drivers, bicy-
clists, and pedestrians.

Always obey applicable laws and regulations. Be a polite
and alert driver. Always leave room for unexpected
events, such as sudden braking.

If you plan to drive in another country, obey their vehicle
registration laws and make sure you will be able to get the
right fuel.

7Replacement of light bulbs
N00942900310
Before replacing the bulb, be sure the light is off. Do not touch
the glass part of the new bulb with your bare fingers; the oil
from your skin will stay on the glass and dim or destroy the
bulb when it gets hot.NOTE
If you are unsure of how to carry out the work as required,
it is recommended that these procedures be carried out by
an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility
of your choice.

Be careful not to scratch the vehicle body when removing
a light and lens.

When it rains, or when the vehicle has been washed, the
inside of the lens sometimes becomes temporarily foggy.
This is the same phenomenon as when window glass mists
up on a humid day, and does not indicate a functional
problem.
When the light is switched on, the heat will remove the
fog. However, if water gathers inside the light, please
have it checked by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer or a repair facility of your choice.
Bulb capacity
N00943000132
The bulb should only be replaced with a new bulb with the
same rating and type. The type and rating are listed on the base
of the bulb.Outside
N00950300834
CAUTION
!
Bulbs are extremely hot immediately after being
turned off.
When replacing the bulb, wait for it to cool suffi-
ciently before touching it. You could otherwise be
burned.
