WARNINGS REGARDING SERVICING OF SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) EQUIPPED VEHICLES
WARNING
•Improper service or maintenance of any component of the SRS, or any SRS-related component, can lead to
personal injury or death to service personnel (from inadvertent firing of the air bag) or to the driver and
paassenger (from rendering the SRS inoperative).
•Service or maintenance of any SRS component or SRS-related component must be performed only at an
authorized MITSUBISHI dealer.
•MITSUBISHI dealer personnel must thoroughly review this manual, and especially its GROUP 52B - Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) before beginning any service or maintenance of any component of the SRS or any
SRS-related component.
NOTE
The SRS includes the following components: SRS air bag control unit, SRS warning light, front impact sensors, air bag module,
clock spring, and interconnecting wiring. Other SRS-related components (that may have to be removed/installed in connection
with SRS service or maintenance) are indicated in the table of contents by an asterisk (*).

STEERING WHEEL FREE PLAY CHECKM1372001000311
1. With the engine running (hydraulic operation), set
the front wheels straight ahead.
2. Measure the play on the steering wheel
circumference before the wheels start to move
when slightly moving the steering wheel in both
directions.
Limit: 30 mm
3. When the play exceeds the limit, check for the
play on the steering shaft and steering linkage
connection. Correct or replace.
4. If the free play still exceeds the limit value, set the
steering wheel straight ahead with the engine
stopped. Load 5 N towards the steering wheel
circumference and check the play.
Standard value (steering wheel play with the
engine stopped): 10 mm or less
5. If the play exceeds the standard value, remove
the steering gear (Refer to P.37-24) and check
the total pinion torque (Refer to P.37-27).
STEERING ANGLE CHECKM1372001100374
1. Place the front wheel on a turning radius gauge
and measure the steering angle.
Standard value:
2. If the steering angle is not within the standard
value, adjust the toe-in as follows.
Standard value:
at the centre of tyre tread: 1 ± 2 mm
Toe angle (per wheel): 0°03' ± 06'
3. Loosen the lock nut, and unclip the bellows.
4. Adjust the toe-in by turning the left and right tie
rod turnbuckles by the same amount (in opposite
directions).
NOTE: The toe will move out as the left
turnbuckle is turned toward the front of the vehicle
and the right turnbuckle is turned toward the rear
of the vehicle.
5. Tighten the lock nut to the specified torque, and
tighten the bellows by the clip.
Tightening torque: 40 ± 5 N⋅m
6. Recheck the steering angle.

DOOR WINDOW GLASS ADJUSTMENTM1423001000327
Check that the door glass moves while contacting
the door glass channel when it is raised and lowered
fully. If not, adjust the door window according to the
following procedures.
1. Remove the door trim assembly (Refer to GROUP
52A, Door trim P.52A-15).
2. Remove the waterproof film (Refer to P.42-39).
3. Loosen the door glass mounting screw via the
adjusting hole with the door window glass fully
closed, then lower the window glass a little.
4. Fully close the door window glass again and
tighten the door glass mounting screw firmly via
the adjusting hole.
GLASS SLIDING MECHANISM CHECK
AND ADJUSTMENT
M1429000900091
If the window glass automatically starts moving
downwards at the wrong time while it is being raised,
carry out the following adjustment or replacement
procedures.
1. Remove the door trim assembly (Refer to GROUP
52A, Door trim P.52A-15).
2. Remove the waterproof film (Refer to P.42-39).
3. Remove the window regulator assembly from the
door window glass, and then raise and lower the
door window glass by hand to check the operation
force.
NOTE: Insert a cushion or similar object to
prevent damage to the glass if it should happen to
fall down.4. If the door window glass does not move up and
down smoothly, check or repair the following
points.
•Check the installation condition of the
runchannel.
•Repair any twisting in the door sash.
•Check the installation condition of the lower sash
or the centre sash.
NOTE: The lower sash cannot normally be
adjusted, but it may be possible to adjust the sash
span slightly within the range allowed by
manufacturing tolerances by pushing the lower
sash outwards while re-installing it.
5. If repair or adjustment is not possible, replace the
door assembly.
POWER WINDOW OPERATING CURRENT
CHECK
M1429001100184
1. Remove the power window fuse and connect an
ammeter as shown in the illustration.
2. When the power window switch is pressed to the
“UP” position, a large amount of current flows at
the time the window starts to close and when it is
fully closed, so measure the operation current in
the interval between these two points.
Standard value (A): 5 ± 1A (Power supply
voltage 14.5 ± 0.5V, 25°C)

HEADLAMP AIMING
M1542000900538
PRE-AIMING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Inspect for badly rusted or faulty headlamp
assemblies.
2. These conditions must be corrected before a
satisfactory adjustment can be made.
3. Inspect tyre inflation, and adjust if it is necessary.
4. If the fuel tank is not full, place a weight in luggage
room of the vehicle to simulate weight of a full
tank (0.8 kg per litre).
5. There should be no other load in the vehicle other
than driver or substituted weight of approximately
75 kg placed in driver's position.
6. Thoroughly clean the headlamp lenses.7. Place the vehicle on a level floor, perpendicular to
a flat screen 10 m away from the bulb
centre-marks on the headlamp lens.
8. Rock vehicle sideways to allow vehicle to assume
its normal position.
9. Bounce the front suspension through three (3)
oscillations by applying the body weight to hood
or bumper.
10.Four lines of adhesive tape (or equivalent
markings) are required on screen or wall:
(1) Position a vertical tape or mark so that it is
aligned with the vehicle centre line.
(2) Measure the distance from the centre-marks
on the headlamp lens to the floor. Transfer the
measurement to the screen. Horizontal tape or
mark on the screen is for reference of vertical
adjustment. Item Standard value Limit
