1. Lift up the luggage floor board. Refer to “Luggage floor board” on page 5-226. 2. Store the spare tire under the luggagefloor board. To store the spare tire, fit the installation clamp (A) by turning it clock- wise.
3. Have your damaged tire repaired as soon as possible.

Store the flat tire in the luggage compartment. Reverse the removing procedure when stor- ing the jack, bar and wheel nut wrench. Refer to “Jack and tools” on page 8-5.

If towing is necessary, we recommend you to have it done by a commercial tow truck ser- vice. When towing is required, transport the vehi-cle using a tow truck.Incorrect towing equipment could damage your vehicle. There may be local regulations concerning towing in your area. Obey the regulations of the area where you are driving your vehicle.
 If the steering wheel vibrates when driving after changing the tire, have the tire checked for balance at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice. Do not mix one type of tire with another or use a different size from the one listed. Thiswould cause early wear and poor handling.

CAUTION
NOTE
 On vehicles with a T155/90D16 or T155/80D17 size spare tire, the clamp can- not be used for a normal size tire.
To store the flat tire, jack, bar and wheel nut wrench
NOTE
 The clamp cannot be us
ed for a normal size
tire.  When storing a normal size flat tire in the space for the spare wheel under the luggagefloor board, the luggage floor board will be positioned higher than usual.
To w i n g If your vehicle needs to be towed
CAUTION Do not attempt to be towed by another vehi- cle with a rope.NOTE
 Your vehicle cannot tow any other vehicle.

 Economy The wrong tire pressure can cause uneven wear patterns in the tire tread. These abnormal wear patterns will reduce thetread life, and the tire will have to be replaced sooner. Too little pressure also makes it harder forthe tire to roll, and this uses up more fuel.  Ride comfort and vehicle stability The superior riding experience built intoyour vehicle partly depends on the correcttire pressure. Too much pressure gives an uncomfortable and jarring ride. Too little pressure feels as if your vehicle is slow torespond. Unequal tire pressures can make steering your vehicle uneven and unpredictable.
The tire pressure for your vehicle under nor- mal driving conditions is listed on the placard attached to the driver’s door sill. (Refer to “Tire and loading information plac-ard” on page 11-3.) The recommended infl
ation pressures under
normal driving conditions should be used forthe tires listed below.
Tire pressures should be checked, and adjusted if necessary, at least once a month. Pressures should be checked more often whenever weather temperatures changeseverely, because tire pressures change with outdoor temperatures. The pressures listed are always “cold inflation pressure”.Cold inflation pressure is measured after the vehicle has been parked for at least three hours or is driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km)after having been parked for three hours.Cold inflation pressure must not go above the maximum values molded into the tire side- wall. After driving several miles, your tireinflation pressure may increase 2 to 6 psi (14 to 41 kPa) from the cold inflation pressure. Do not let air out of the tires to get back to thespecified cold pressure, or your tires will be too low. Check your tires each time you refuel. If onetire looks lower than the others, check the pressure for all of them. You should also take the following safety pre-cautions:
 Keep your tires inflated to the recom- mended pressures. (See the tire and load- ing information placard attached to the driver’s door sill.) Stay within the recommended load limits.  Make sure that the weight of any load in your vehicle is evenly distributed. Drive at safe speeds.  After filling your tires to the correct pres- sure, check them for damage and airleaks. Be sure to reinstall the caps on thevalve stems.

Replacing tires and wheels
CAUTION Avoid using different si
ze tires from the one
listed and the combined use of different types of tires, as this can affect drivingsafety. Refer to “Tires and wheels” on page 11-7. On all-wheel drive vehicles, always use tires of the same size, same type, and same brand, and which have no wear differences. Usingtires that differ in size, type, brand or the degree of wear, will increase the differential oil temperature, resulting in possible damage to the driving system. Further, the drive train will be subjected to excessive loading, possi-bly leading to oil leakage, component sei- zure, or other serious problems.

In some areas of the country, snow tires are required for winter driving. If snow tires are required in your area, you must choose snowtires of the same size and type as the original tires provided with your vehicle. Snow tires
should also be installed on all four wheels. Otherwise your safety and vehicle handling can be reduced. Even where laws may permit it, never exceedthe maximum speed rating of the tire.
N00940101139
CAUTION A compact spare tire can be installed tempo- rarily in place of a tire that has been removedduring the tire rotation. However, it must not be included in the regular tire rotation sequence.
Tires that do not have arrows showing rotation direction Tires that have arrows
showing rotation direction
Front Front
 If the tires have arrows (A) indicating the correct direction of rotation, swap the front and rear tires on the left-hand side of the vehicle and the front and rear tires on the right-hand side of the vehicle separately.Keep each tire on its original side of the vehicle. When installing the tires, make sure the arrows point in the direction in which thewheels will turn when the vehicle moves for- ward. Any tire whose arrow points in the wrong direction will not perform to its fullpotential. Avoid the combined use of different types of tires. Using different types of tires can affectvehicle performance and safety.
Snow tires
CAUTION
Front
CAUTION Only Mitsubishi Motors Authorized wheels should be used, because your vehicle is equipped with a tire pressure monitoring sys-tem. Use of another type of wheel risks air leaks and sensor damage, as it will not be possibleto install the tire pressure sensor properly.
Tire chains
CAUTION Tire chains cannot be used on your vehicle. The clearance between the chains and thebody is not sufficient to allow proper clear- ance, and the vehicle body might be dam- aged.
