14. Place the compressor (N) with its air pres-
sure gauge (O) on top.
Pull out the compressor’s power cord (P), in-
sert the plug on the cord into the accessory
socket (Q), and then turn the electric motor
switch to the “ACC” position.
Turn ON the compressor switch (R) and in-
flate the tyre to the specified pressure. CAUTION
l
The
supplied compressor is designed only
for inflation of passenger vehicle tyres.
l The compressor is designed to run on a ve-
hicle’s 12 V power supply. Do not connect
it to any other power source.
l The compressor is not waterproof. If you
use it in rain, make sure water does not
get on it. CAUTION
l
Any
sand or dust sucked into the compres-
sor could make the compressor break
down. Do not place the compressor direct-
ly on any sandy or dusty surface when us-
ing it.
l Do not disassemble or modify the com-
pressor. Also, do not subject the air pres-
sure gauge to shock. It could malfunction.
15. Check
and adjust the tyre pressure with refer- ence to the air pressure gauge on the compres-
sor. If you overinflate the tyre, release air by
loosening the hose’s end fitting. (Refer to
“Tyre inflation pressures” on page 8-15.)
If there is a gap between the tyre and wheel
because the tyre has moved inward from the
wheel rim, press the periphery of the tyre to-
wards the wheel to close the gap before run-
ning the compressor. (With no gaps, the tyre
pressure will rise.) CAUTION
l
Be
careful not to get your fingers trapped
between the tyre and wheel as the tyre in-
flates.
l The surface of the compressor will get
hot while the compressor is running. Do
not keep the compressor running continu-
ously for more than 10 minutes. After us-
ing the compressor, wait for the compres-
sor to cool before using it again. CAUTION
l
If
the compressor becomes sluggish or
hot while operating, it is overheating. Im-
mediately place the switch in the OFF po-
sition and let the compressor cool down
for at least 30 minutes.
NOTE l 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 can-
not be used to effect an emergency repair.
Please contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point or another specialist
in this event.
16. Turn OFF the compressor switch, then pull the power cord plug out of the socket.
NOTE l Simply putting sealant and air into the tyre us-
ing the tyre repair kit does not seal the punc-
ture hole. Air will leak through the puncture
hole until the emergency repair procedure is
completed (through step 19 of these instruc-
tions).
17. When you have inflated the tyre to the speci- fied pressure, stow the compressor, bottle,
and other items in the vehicle and promptly
start driving the vehicle so that the tyre seal-
ant can spread evenly in the tyre. Drive with
great care. Do not exceed a speed of 80 km/h
(50 mph). Observe local speed limits. For emergencies

For cold and snowy weather
E08403700012
Ventilation slots
The
ventilation slots in front of the windscreen
should be kept clear of leaves or brushed clear after
heavy snowfall, so that the operation of the heating
and ventilation systems will not be impaired.
Weatherstripping
To prevent freezing of the weatherstripping on the
doors, bonnet, etc., they should be treated with sili-
cone grease.
Additional equipment
It is a good idea to carry a shovel or a short-han-
dled spade in the vehicle during the winter so that
you can clear away snow if you get stranded. A
small hand-brush for sweeping snow off the vehi-
cle and a plastic scraper for the windscreen and
rear window are also useful. Fusible links
E08403800013
The
fusible links will melt to prevent a fire if a
large current attempts to flow through certain elec-
trical systems.
In case of a melted fusible link, we recommend
you to have your vehicle inspected.
For the fusible links, please refer to “Passenger com-
partment fuse location table” on page 8-21 and
“Bonnet room fuse location table” on page 8-22. WARNING
l Fusible
links must not be replaced by any
other device. Failing to fit the correct fusi-
ble link may result in fire in the vehicle,
property destruction and serious or fatal
injuries at any time. Fuses
E08403900014
Fuse block location E08404000012
To prevent damage to the electrical system due to
shortcircuiting

or overloading, each individual cir-
cuit is provided with a fuse.
There are fuse blocks in the passenger compart-
ment and in the bonnet room.
NOTE
l Spare fuses are not provided. Please pur-
chase it from a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point or other locations.
Passenger compartment
The fuse block in the passenger compartment is lo-
cated in front of the driver’s seat at the position
shown in the illustration.
Press the tab (A) and remove the fuse cover (B). Vehicle care and Maintenance

* : NEDC stands for New European Driving Cycle. The values of electric energy consumption and electric range are based on ECE R101. These values vary
depending on driving style, road and traffic conditions, ambient temperature, use of air conditioners and so forth. NOTE
l The results given do not express or imply any guarantee of the electric energy consumption of the particular vehicle.
The

vehicle itself has not been tested and there are inevitably differences between individual vehicles of the same model. In addition, this vehicle may incor-
porate particular modifications. Furthermore, the driver’s style and road and traffic conditions, as well as the extent to which the vehicle has been driven and
the standard of maintenance, will all affect its electric energy consumption.
l All mentioned values are referring to a new, driven in vehicle.
l The consumption, but mainly the driving distance depends on the condition of the traction battery.
l Parameters on traction battery are depending on temperature, climate, charging and charging history and age of the traction battery etc.
l A bigger influence as known by combustion engine are the energy consumptive consumers of the vehicle like heating, air conditioning, etc. Specifications
