Cargo loads precautions
CAUTIONlWhen loading luggage, be careful to the fol-
lowing.
• 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 in-
strument 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
E00610001674
In order to tow a trailer with your vehicle,
when having a trailer towing device mounted that meets all relevant regulations in your
area, consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point.
The regulations concerning the towing of a
trailer may differ from country to country. You are advised to obey the regulations in
each area.CAUTIONl Danger of Accident!
A towing bar should be fitted according to MITSUBISHI MOTORS guidelines.NOTEl 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 listed in the specifications. (Referto “Vehicle weight” on page 11-11.)
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 increase of 1,000 m above sea-level, as the engine output is lowered owing to de-
crease in atmospheric pressure.

CAUTIONlDo not bring the nearby parts, the plastic
parts and so on into contact with sulphuric acid (battery electrolyte) which may crack,
stain or discolour them.
If they are in contact, wipe off with soft cloth, chamois or the like and an aqueous
solution of neutral detergent then immedi-
ately rinse the affected parts with plenty of water.NOTEl Keep the terminals clean. After the battery is
connected, apply terminal protection grease.
To clean the terminals, use lukewarm water.
l Check to see if the battery is securely instal-
led and cannot be moved during travel. Also check each terminal for tightness.
l When the vehicle is to be left unused for a
long period of time, remove the battery and
store it in a place where the battery fluid will not freeze. The battery should be stored only in a fully charged condition.Tyres

Check the tyre inflation pressure of all the tyres while they are cold; if insufficient or excessive, adjust to the specified value.
After the tyre inflation pressure has been adjusted, check the tyres for damage and air leaks. Be sure to put caps on the valves.

1- Location of the tread wear indicator
2- Tread wear indicator
Check the tyres for cuts, cracks and other
damage. Replace the tyres if there are deep
cuts or cracks. Also check each tyre for pieces of metal or pebbles.
The use of worn tyres can be very dangerous
because of the greater chance of skidding or
hydroplaning. The tread depth of the tyres
must exceed 1.6 mm in order for the tyres to meet the minimum requirement for use.
If there are tread wear indicators on the tyres,
they will appear in six places on the surface of the tyre as the tyre wears, thereby indicat- ing that the tyre no longer meets the mini-
mum requirement for use. When these wear
indicators appear, the tyres must be replaced
with new ones.Check that the wheel nuts are tightened cor-
rectly. Refer to the section entitled “For emergencies” for information concerning re-
placement of the tyres.NOTEl The mark and the location of the tyre tread
wear indicators are different depending on
the tyre manufacturer.
On 4-wheel drive vehicles, when replacement of any of the tyres is necessary, replace all of
them.

CAUTIONl Handle halogen lamp bulbs with care. The
gas inside halogen lamp bulbs is highly pres- surized, so dropping, knocking, or scratching
a halogen lamp bulb can cause it to shatter.
l Never hold the halogen lamp bulb with a
bare hand, dirty glove, etc.
The oil from your hand could cause the bulb to break the next time the fog lamps are op-
erated.
If the glass surface is dirty, it must be cleaned with alcohol, paint thinner, etc., andrefit it after drying thoroughly.
