To resume the set speed
E00609800675
If the set speed driving is deactivated by the
condition described in “To deactivate” on
page 6-58, you can resume the previously set
speed by push up the RES + switch (C) while
driving at a speed of about 40 km/h (25 mph)
or higher.
Under either of the following conditions, however, using the switch does not allow you
to resume the previously set speed.
In these situations, repeat the speed setting procedure:
l The CRUISE CONTROL ON/OFF
switch is pressed.
l [Except vehicles equipped with keyless
operation system]
Turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK”
or “ACC” position.
[Vehicles equipped with keyless opera- tion system]
Put the operation mode in OFF or ACC.

OFF.Tyre pressure monitoring
system (TPMS)* E00637100279
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 meter switch (It’s ben-
eficial in case of seasonal tyre change be- tween summer tyre and winter tyre.)WARNINGl The spare wheel does not have a tyre in-
flation pressure sensor.
When the spare tyre is used, the tyre pres- sure monitoring system will not work
properly.
See a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point as soon as possible to replace or repair the original tyre.

NOTElThe 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 10-13.
l The tyre inflation pressure sensor (B) is in-
stalled in the illustrated location.
• On vehicles with Type 1 sensor which has
the metallic air valve (C), replace grom- met and washer (D) with a new one when
the tyre is replaced.
• On vehicles with Type 2 sensor which has
the rubber air valve (E), replace rubber air valve (E) with a new one when the tyre is
replaced.

Service Point.NOTEThe tyre pressure monitoring
system warning lamp/display
E00637200111
When the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position or 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 (except for the spare tyre) is significantly under-inflated, the warning lamp will remain illuminated
while the ignition switch or the operation mode is in ON.
Refer to “If the warning lamp/display illumi-
nates while driving” on page 6-62 and take
the necessary measurements.NOTEl In addition, the warning display will be dis-
played on the information screen in the mul-
ti-information display.Type 1

NOTEType 2CAUTIONlIf the warning lamp does not illuminate
when the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position or the operation mode is put
in ON, it means that the tyre pressure moni-
toring system (TPMS) is not working prop- erly. Have the system inspected by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
In such situations, a malfunctioning of the system may prevent the monitoring of the tyre pressure. Avoid sudden braking, sharp
turning and high-speed driving.CAUTIONl 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 warn- ings each time the engine is restarted as long
as the malfunction 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 engine is
restarted, have the vehicle inspected by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice 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.NOTEl In addition, the warning display will be dis-
played on the information screen in the mul-
ti-information display.NOTEType 1Type 2
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.
Tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS)*
6-61OGAE17E2Starting and driving6

Accordingly, when the low tyre pressure tell-tale illuminates, you should stop and check
your 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 the
level 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 yourvehicle 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
E00637300037
1. If the warning lamp illuminates, avoid
hard braking, sharp steering manoeuvres and high speeds. You should stop andadjust the tyres to the proper inflationpressure as soon as possible. Adjust the
spare tyre at the same time. Refer to “Tyres” on page 10-13
NOTEl In addition, the warning display will be dis-
played on the information screen in the mul-
ti-information display.
l When inspecting or adjusting the tyre pres-
sure, do not apply excessive force to the
valve stem to avoid breakage.NOTEl After inspecting or adjusting the tyre pres-
sure, always reinstall the valve cap on the
valve stem.
Without the valve cap, dirt or moisture could
get into the valve, resulting in damage to the tyre inflation pressure sensor.
l Do not use metal valve caps, which may
cause a metal reaction, resulting in corrosion and damage of the tyre inflation pressure
sensors.
l Once adjustments have been made, the
warning lamp will go off after a few minutesof driving.
2. If the warning lamp remains illuminated
after you have been driving for about 10
minutes after you adjust the tyre infla- tion pressure, one or more of the tyresmay have a puncture. Inspect the tyreand if it has a puncture, have it repaired
by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point as soon as possible.
WARNINGl If the warning lamp/display illuminates
while you are driving, avoid hard brak- ing, sharp steering manoeuvres and high speeds.
Driving with an under-inflated tyre ad-
versely affects vehicle performance and
can result in an accident.
Tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS)*

CAUTIONlThe warning lamp/display may not illumi-
nate immediately in the event of a tyre blow- out or rapid leak.NOTEl To avoid the risk of damage to the tyre infla-
tion pressure sensors, have any punctured
tyre repaired by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point. If the tyre repair is
not done by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point, damage to the tyre
inflation pressure sensor is not covered by your warranty.
l Do not use an aerosol puncture-repair spray
on any tyre.
Such a spray could damage the tyre inflation
pressure sensors.
Have any puncture repaired by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
l Using the tyre repair kit may damage the
tyre inflation pressure sensor. The vehiclemust promptly be inspected and repaired by
a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
The tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS)
may not work normally in the following cir-
cumstances:
l A wireless facility or device using the
same frequency is near the vehicle.
l Snow or ice is stuck inside the fenders
and/or on the wheels.
l The tyre inflation pressure sensor’s bat-
tery is dead.
l Wheels other than
MITSUBISHI
MOTORS GENUINE wheels are being
used.
l Wheels that are not fitted with tyre infla-
tion pressure sensors are being used.
l Wheels whose ID codes are not memo-
rized by the vehicle are used.
l A window tint that affects the radio
wave signals is installed.NOTEl Tyre inflation pressures vary with the ambi-
ent temperature. If the vehicle is subjected to large variations in ambient temperature, the tyre inflation pressures may be low (causing
the warning lamp/display to come on) when the ambient temperature is relatively low. If the warning lamp/display comes on, adjustthe tyre inflation pressure.Whenever the tyres and wheels
are replaced with new ones
E00637400025
If new wheels with new tyre inflation pres-
sure sensors are installed, their ID codes must be programmed into the tyre pressure moni- toring system. Have tyre and wheel replace-
ment performed by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point to avoid
the risk of damaging the tyre inflation pres- sure sensors. If the wheel replacement is not
done by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point, it is not covered by your warranty.
CAUTIONl The use of non-genuine wheels will prevent
the proper fit of the tyre inflation pressure sensors, resulting air leakage or damage of
the sensors.Reset of low tyre pressure
warning threshold

E00615500345
This system operates when you are backingthe vehicle. It uses corner and back sensors to detect an obstacle and the information screen
in the multi-information display and the buz-
zer to inform you of the approximate distance to the obstacle.
CAUTIONl The reversing sensor system assists you in
determining the approximate distance be-
tween the vehicle and an obstacle located behind the vehicle. It has limitations in terms
of detectable areas and objects, and may not
properly detect some objects. Therefore, do not place excessive confidence in the revers-
ing sensor system and operate the vehicle as carefully as you would do with a vehicle not equipped with this system.CAUTIONl Make sure to check the surroundings with
your own eyes to ensure safety. Do not oper-
ate the vehicle by relying on the reversing sensor system alone.Obstacle detection areas
E00615601705
The detection areas of the corner and back
sensors are limited to those shown in the il-
lustration. Moreover, the sensors are unable to detect low or thin objects or objects nearthe rear bumper. Thus, make sure to check
the surroundings as you operate the vehicle in a safe manner.
Corner and back sensor loca-
tions
There are two corner sensors (A) at the cor-ners of the rear bumper, and two back sensors
(B) in the centre of the rear bumper.
Reversing sensor system detec-
tion areas
Depending on whether the vehicle is equip-
ped with a towing bar, you can change the re-
versing sensor system between the standard
mode and the towing bar mode. The towing bar mode changes the system to exclude the
area in which the towing bar is mounted from the detection areas.

14.Place the compressor (L) with its air
pressure gauge (M) on top.
Pull out the compressor’s power cord
(N), insert the plug on the cord into the accessory socket or cigarette lighter
socket (O), and then turn the ignition switch to “ACC” position or put the op-
eration mode in ACC. Refer to “Ciga-
rette lighter” on page 7-73 and “Acces-
sory socket” on page 7-74.
Turn ON the compressor switch (P) and
inflate the tyre to the specified pressure. (Refer to “Tyre inflation pressures” on
page 10-13.)CAUTIONl The supplied compressor is designed only
for inflation of passenger vehicle tyres.
l The compressor is designed to run on a vehi-
cle’s 12 V power supply. Do not connect itto any other power source.
l The compressor is not waterproof. If you use
it in rain, make sure water does not get on it.
l Any sand or dust sucked into the compressor
could make the compressor break down. Do not place the compressor directly on anysandy or dusty surface when using it.
l Do not disassemble or modify the compres-
sor. Also, do not subject the air pressure
gauge to shock. It could malfunction.
15. Check and adjust the tyre pressure with
reference to the air pressure gauge on the
compressor. If you overinflate the tyre, release air by loosening the hose’s end
fitting.
If there is a gap between the tyre and
wheel because the tyre has moved in-
ward from the wheel rim, press the pe- riphery of the tyre towards the wheel to
close the gap before running the com- pressor. (With no gaps, the tyre pressure
will rise.)
CAUTIONl Be careful not to get your fingers trapped be-
tween the tyre and wheel as the tyre inflates.CAUTIONl The surface of the compressor will get hot
while the compressor is running. Do not
keep the compressor running continuously for more than 10 minutes. After using the compressor, wait for the compressor to cool
before using it again.
l If the compressor becomes sluggish or hot
while operating, it is overheating. Immedi- ately place the switch in the OFF positionand let the compressor cool down for at least30 minutes.NOTEl If the tyre pressure does not rise to the speci-
fied level within 10 minutes, the tyre may be
so severely damaged that the tyre sealant
cannot be used to effect an emergency re- pair. Please contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or an-
other specialist in this event.
16. Turn OFF the compressor switch, then
pull the power cord plug out of the sock- et.
Tyre repair kit*
8-11OGAE17E2For emergencies8

NOTElSimply putting sealant and air into the tyre
using the tyre repair kit does not seal the
puncture hole. Air will leak through the puncture hole until the emergency repair procedure is completed (through step 19 of
these instructions).
17. Affix the speed restriction sticker (Q) to
the steering wheel at the position shown
in the illustration. Then immediately drive with great care to a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or
another specialist and have tyre repair/
replacement performed.
CAUTIONl Do 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.
l Be sure to check the tyre pressure for confir-
mation that the emergency repair procedureis 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.
CAUTIONl 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.NOTEl 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).CAUTIONl 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 apparentlynot 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.
Tyre repair kit*
8-12OGAE17E2For emergencies8

NOTElIf 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.
l In cold conditions (when the ambient tem-
perature is 0 °C or lower), the time and driv-
ing distance necessary until completion of
the repair can be longer than in warmer con- ditions, meaning that the tyre pressure candrop below the specified level even when
you have inflated the tyre a second time and
subsequently driven the vehicle. If this hap- pens, inflate the tyre to the specified pres-
sure once more, drive for about 10 minutes or 5 km (3 miles), then check the tyre pres-sure again. If the tyre pressure has again
dropped below the specified level, stop driv- ing the vehicle and contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or an-
other specialist.
l Please give the empty sealant bottle to your
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point when you purchase new sealant or
dispose of the sealant bottle according to na- tional regulations for the disposal of chemi-
cal waste.NOTEl A 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 cannot
be located.
l Wipe away any sealant that gets on the
wheel. Provided the valve is replaced with a
new one, the wheel can be reused.
l 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’s tread. The manufactur-
er is not liable for damage sustained through improper use of the tyre repair kit.
l The manufacturer is not liable for damage
sustained through re-use of any tyre in
which tyre sealant has been used.How to change a tyre
E00801202943
Before changing a tyre, first stop your vehi-cle in a safe, flat location. 1. Park the vehicle on level and stable
ground, free of loose pebbles, etc.
2. Set the parking brake firmly.
3. On vehicles with M/T, stop the engine
and move the gearshift lever to the “R”
(Reverse) position.
On vehicles with A/T or CVT, move the
selector lever to the “P” (PARK) posi- tion and stop the engine.
4. Turn on the hazard warning flashers and
set up a warning triangle, flashing signal
lamp, etc., at an adequate distance from the vehicle, and have all your passengers
leave the vehicle.NOTEl The warning triangle and flashing signal
lamp do not come with your vehicle. It is recommended that you keep one in the vehi- cle for use if needed.
5. To prevent the vehicle from rolling
when it is raised on the jack, place
chocks or blocks (A) in front of and be- hind the tyre that is diagonally opposite
from the tyre (B) you are changing.
