l The reference lines for distance and vehicle
width are intended to indicate the distance to
a flat object such as a level, flat road surface. This may make the distance to a projectingobject shown on the screen differ from the
actual distance to the projecting object. Do not use them as a guide for distances to solid
objects.
Example: On the screen the point B appears
the nearest, then the point C and A in order of distance. The points A and B actually are the same distances from the vehicle, and the
NOTEpoint C is farther off than the points A and

Cargo loads precautions
CAUTIONlDo not load cargo or luggage higher than the
top of the seatback. Be sure that your cargo
or luggage cannot move once your vehicle is moving. Having the driver’s vision blocked,
and your cargo being thrown inside the cab- in if you suddenly have to brake can cause a
serious accident or injury.CAUTIONl Load heavy cargo or luggage in the front of
the vehicle. If the load in the back of the ve-
hicle is too heavy, steering may become un- stable.
Loading a roof carrier
CAUTIONl Use a roof carrier that properly fits your ve-
hicle. Do not load luggage directly onto the
roof. For installation, refer to the instruction manual accompanying the roof carrier.
l When attaching/removing the roof carrier
and loading/removing luggage, do not apply excessive pressure on a single point.
Depending on how and where the force is applied, this may cause dents on the vehicle
roof.NOTEl We recommend you to use a genuine
MITSUBISHI roof carrier, since the brack-
ets to be used have a special shape.
For details, we recommend you to consult a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.

Roof carrier mounting brack-ets*
When installing the roof carrier, use the brackets (A).
The brackets (A) are located under each cov-
er (B).
Attaching the roof carrier
Slide each cover (B) towards the front of the
vehicle to remove it.
Refitting the covers
1. With each cover, put the tabs (C) on the
cover in the holes (D) in the roof.
2. Slide the cover (B) towards the rear of
the vehicle to install it.
Roof carrier precautionCAUTIONl Make sure that the weight of the luggage
does not exceed the allowable roof load.
If the allowable roof load is exceeded, this may cause damage to the vehicle.
The roof load is the total allowable load on
the roof (the weight of the roof carrier plus
the weight of luggage placed on the roof car- rier).
For the specific value, refer to “Maximum
roof load” on page 11-07.
l When luggage is loaded onto the vehicle,
please make sure to drive slowly and avoid excessive manoeuvres such as sudden brak-ing or quick turning.
In addition, place the luggage on the carrier
so that its weight is distributed evenly with the heaviest items on the bottom. Do not
load items that are wider than the roof carri-
er.
The additional weight on the roof could raise the vehicle’s centre of gravity and affect ve-
hicle handling characteristics.
As a result, driving errors or emergency ma- noeuvres could lead to a loss of control and
result in an accident.
l Before driving and after travelling a short
distance, always check the load to make sure
it is securely fastened to the roof carrier. Check periodically during your travel that
the load remains secure.

CAUTIONTherefore;• Maintain a distance of approx. 70 cm
or
more between the vehicle body and the
washing nozzle.
• When washing around the door glass,
hold the nozzle at a distance of more than
70 cm and at right angles to the glass sur-
face.
l After washing the vehicle, drive the vehicle
slowly while lightly depressing the brake
pedal several times in order to dry out the brakes.
Leaving the brakes wet could result in re- duced braking performance. Also, there is a
possibility that they could freeze up or be- come inoperative due to rust, rendering the
vehicle unable to move.
l When using an automatic car wash, pay at-
tention to the following items, referring to the operation manual or consulting a car
wash operator. If the following procedure is not followed, it could result in damage to your vehicle.
• The outside mirrors are retracted.
• The antenna is removed.
• The wiper arms are secured in place with
tape.
• If your vehicle is equipped with a rear
spoiler or roof rails, consult a car wash operator before using the car wash.
• If your vehicle has rain sensor wipers,
place the wiper switch lever in the “OFF” position to deactivate the rain sensor.During cold weather
Salt and other chemicals spread on the roads
in some areas in winter can have a harmful effect on the vehicle body. You should there-
fore wash the vehicle as often as possible in accordance with our care-instructions. It is
recommended to have a preservative applied
and the underfloor protection checked before and after the cold weather season.
After washing your vehicle, wipe off all wa- terdrops from the rubber parts around thedoors to prevent the doors from freezing.
NOTEl To prevent freezing of the weatherstripping
on the doors, bonnet, etc., they should be treated with silicone spray.Waxing
E00901000863
Waxing the vehicle will help prevent the ad-
herence of dust and road chemicals to the
paintwork. Apply a wax solution after wash- ing the vehicle, or at least once every three
months to assist displacing of water.
Do not wax your vehicle in direct sunlight.
You should wax after the surfaces have
cooled.
CAUTIONl Waxes containing high abrasive compounds
should not be used. Such waxes remove rust and stains effectively from the paintwork but
they are harmful to the lustre on the painted
surface and the plated surface.
Further, they are harmful to glossy surfaces such as grille, garnish, mouldings, etc.
l Do not use petrol or paint thinners to remove
road tar or other contamination to the pain-
ted surface.
l Do not apply wax to sections that have a
black mat paint coating, as doing so could cause uneven discolouration, spots or stains.
If wax gets on such areas, wipe it off using
lukewarm water and a soft cloth.Polishing
E00901100066
The vehicle should only be polished if the
paintwork has become stained or lost its lus- tre. Do not polish parts with a mat coating
and the plastic bumpers. Doing so could cause stains or damage the finish.
Damaged paint
E00901200201
Small cracks and scratches in the paint coat
should be touched up as soon as possible
with MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENUINE
touch-up paint to prevent corrosion.
