Tire pressure monitoring system warning light

When the ignition key is turned to the “ON” position, this light
normally illuminates and goes off a few seconds later.
If one or more of the vehicle tires (except for the compact spare
tire) is significantly under-inflated, however, this light will
remain illuminated while the key is in the “ON” position.
Refer to “If the warning light illuminates while driving” on
page 3-101 and take the necessary measures.
• On vehicles with Type 1 sensor which has the metallic air
valve (B), replace grommet (C) with a new one when the
tire is replaced.
• On vehicles with Type 2 sensor which has the rubber air
valve (D), replace rubber valve (D) and screw (E) with
new ones when the tire is replaced.

CAUTION
!
If the tire pressure monitoring system warning light
does not illuminate when the ignition key is turned
to the “ON” position, it means that the tire pressure
monitoring system is not working properly. Have
the system inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer.
In such situations, a malfunctioning of the system
may be preventing the monitoring of the tire pres-
sure. Avoid sudden braking, sharp turning and
high-speed driving.
