Cargo loads precautionsCAUTIONl When loading luggage, be careful to the fol-
lowing.
• Stow cargo and luggage in the cargo area
whenever possible.
• Distribute cargo or luggage evenly so that
it is not unbalanced.
• 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.
Loading a roof carrier
CAUTIONl Use a roof carrier that properly fits your ve-
hicle. Do not load luggage directly onto the
roof.
For installation, refer to the instruction man-
ual accompanying the roof carrier.NOTEl We recommend you to use a
MITSUBISHI
MOTORS GENUINE roof carrier, since the
brackets to be used have a special shape. For details, we recommend you to consult aMITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
Roof carrier precaution
CAUTIONl Make sure that the weight of the luggage
does not exceed the allowable roof load.
If the allowable roof load is exceeded, this may cause damage to the vehicle.
The roof load is the total allowable load on
the roof (the weight of the roof carrier plus
the weight of luggage placed on the roof car- rier).
For the specific value, refer to “Maximum
roof load” on page 11-10CAUTIONl When luggage is loaded onto the vehicle,
please make sure to drive slowly and avoid
excessive manoeuvres such as sudden brak- ing or quick turning.
In addition, place the luggage on the carrier
so that its weight is distributed evenly with the heaviest items on the bottom. Do not load items that are wider than the roof carri-
er.
The additional weight on the roof could raise
the vehicle’s centre of gravity and affect ve-
hicle handling characteristics.
As a result, driving errors or emergency ma- noeuvres could lead to a loss of control and
result in an accident.
l Before driving and after travelling a short
distance, always check the load to make sure
it is securely fastened to the roof carrier.
Check periodically during your travel that the load remains secure.NOTEl To prevent wind noise or reduction in fuel
economy, remove the roof carrier when not
in use.
l Remove the roof carrier before using an au-
tomatic car wash.

CAUTION•Maintain a distance of approx. 70 cm
or
more between the vehicle body and the washing nozzle.
• When washing around the door glass,
hold the nozzle at a distance of more than
70 cm and at right angles to the glass sur- face.
l After washing the vehicle, drive the vehicle
slowly while lightly depressing the brake
pedal several times in order to dry out the
brakes.
Leaving the brakes wet could result in re- duced braking performance. Also, there is a
possibility that they could freeze up or be- come inoperative due to rust, rendering the vehicle unable to move.
l When using an automatic car wash, pay at-
tention to the following items, referring to the operation manual or consulting a car
wash operator. If the following procedure is not followed, it could result in damage to
your vehicle.
• The outside mirrors are retracted.
• If your vehicle is equipped with the pillar
antenna, it can be retracted.
• If your vehicle is equipped with the roof
antenna, it can be removed.
• The wiper arms are secured in place with
tape.
• If your vehicle has rain sensor wipers,
place the wiper switch lever in the “OFF” position to deactivate the rain sensor.During cold weather
Salt and other chemicals spread on the roads
in some areas in winter can have a harmful effect on the vehicle body. You should there-
fore wash the vehicle as often as possible in accordance with our care-instructions. It is
recommended to have a preservative applied
and the underfloor protection checked before and after the cold weather season.
After washing your vehicle, wipe off all wa- terdrops from the rubber parts around the
doors to prevent the doors from freezing.
Waxing
E00901001974
Waxing the vehicle will help prevent the ad-
herence of dust and road chemicals to the paintwork. Apply a wax solution after wash- ing the vehicle, or at least once every three
months to assist displacing of water.
Do not wax your vehicle in direct sunlight.
You should wax after the surfaces have
cooled.
For information on how to use wax refer to the instruction manual of the wax.
CAUTIONl Waxes containing high abrasive compounds
should not be used.Polishing
E00901101151
The vehicle should only be polished if the
paintwork has become stained or lost its lus- tre. Do not polish parts with a mat coating
and the plastic bumpers. Doing so could cause stains or damage the finish.
Cleaning plastic parts
E00901301876
Use a sponge or chamois leather.
If a car wax adheres on a grey or black rough surface of the bumper, moulding or lamps, the surface becomes white. In such a case,
wipe it off using lukewarm water and soft cloth or chamois leather.
CAUTIONl Do not use a scrubbing brush or other hard
tools as they may damage the plastic part surface.
l Do not bring the plastic parts into contact
with petrol, light oil, brake fluids, engine oils, greases, paint thinners and sulphuric
acid (battery electrolyte) which may crack, stain or discolour the plastic parts.
If they touch the plastic parts, wipe them off with soft cloth, chamois or the like and anaqueous solution of neutral detergent then
immediately rinse the affected parts with
water.
