Cargo loadsE00609901123
Cargo loads precautionsCAUTIONl When loading luggage, be careful to the
following. •Stow cargo and luggage in the cargo
area whenever possible.
• Distribute cargo or luggage evenly not
to be unbalanced in weight.
• Do not place cargo or luggage on the
instrument panel.
Also, do not stack up cargo or luggage
on the front passenger’s seat or the
rear seat.
Having the driver’s vision blocked,
and your cargo being thrown inside
the cabin if you suddenly have to
brake can cause a serious accident or
injury.Trailer towing E00610000622
In order to tow a trailer with your vehicle, when hav-
ing a trailer towing device mounted that meets all
relevant regulations in your area, consult a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
The regulations concerning the towing of a trailer
may differ from country to country. You are ad-
vised to obey the regulations in each area.CAUTIONl Danger of Accident!
A towing bar should be fitted according
to MITSUBISHI MOTORS guidelines.
NOTE
l If you are going to tow a trailer, pay careful
attention to the following points.
Maximum towable weight with brake
and maximum trailer-nose weight
Never exceed the maximum towable weight with
brake and the maximum trailer-nose weight as lis-
ted in the specifications. (Refer to “Vehicle
weight” on page 9-10.)
If you tow a trailer at an altitude of more than
1,000 m above sea-level, reduce your weight by
10 % of the gross combination weight for every in-
crease of 1,000 m above sea-level, as the engine out-
put is lowered owing to decrease in atmospheric
pressure.
Towing bar mounting specifications
See the following table for fixing points (A) for the
towing bar.Club cab

optional equipment and suspension condi-
tions.Operating hints
l Do not let the clutch slip (vehicles with a M/
a only) and do not increase the engine speed
more than necessary when starting.
l Be sure that the driving speed does not ex-
ceed the maximum speed for trailer operation.
l To prevent shocks from the overrun brake, de-
press the brake pedal lightly at first and then
more strongly.l To make full use of engine braking, change
to a lower gear before descending a slope.
l The body, brakes, clutch, and chassis will be
under additional strain when towing a trailer.
l The heavier weight and higher rolling and air
resistance will increase fuel consumption.
