Replace your tires before they are heavily worn out. As your vehicle is equipped with a tire pres- sure monitoring system, there is a risk ofdamage to the tire inflation pressure sensors when the tire is replaced on the rim. Tire replacement should, therefore, be performedonly by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. Have someone watch while you turn all the exterior lights on and off. Also check the turn signal indicators and high-beam indicators on the instrument panel. Check the ground under the vehicle after parking overnight, for fuel, water, oil, orother leaks. Make sure all the fluid levels are correct. Also, if you can smell fuel, you need to find out why immediately and have itfixed.
N00629200111
Even this vehicle’s safety equipment, andyour safest driving, cannot guarantee that you
can avoid an accident or injury. However, if you give extra attention to the following areas, you can better protect yourself and your passengers:  Drive defensively. Be aware of traffic, road and weather conditions. Leave plenty of stopping distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead. Before changing lanes, check your mir- rors and use your turn signal light.  While driving, watch the behavior of other drivers, bicyclists, and pedestrians. Always obey applicable laws and regula- tions. Be a polite and alert driver. Always leave room for unexpected events, such assudden braking.  If you plan to drive in another country, obey their vehicle registration laws andmake sure you will be able to get the right fuel.
N00629401497
 Check the battery, including terminals and cables. During extremely cold weather, the battery will not be as strong. Also, thebattery power level may drop because more power is used for cold starting and driving.
Before driving the vehicle, check to see if the engine runs at the proper speed and if the headlights are as bright as normally. Charge or replace the battery if necessary.During extreme cold weather, it is possi- ble that a very low battery could freeze.  Warm the engine sufficiently. After start- ing the engine, allow a short warm-up time to distribute oil to all cylinders. Thendrive your vehicle slowly.  Stay at low speeds at first so that the transaxle, transfer case and rear axle oilhave time to spread to all the lubrication points.  Manual transaxle can be harder to shift in cold weather conditions. This is normal and shifting will get easier as the transaxle warms up. Check the engine antifreeze. If there is not enough coolant because of a leak or from engine overheating, add Mit-subishi Motors Genuine Super Long Life Coolant Premium or equivalent.

WA R N I N G The battery gives off explosive hydrogen gas. Any spark or flame can cause the bat- tery to explode, which could cause seriousinjury or death. Always wear protective clothes and a face mask when working with your battery, orlet a skilled mechanic do it.

N00629500446
All the parts of the brake system are criticalto safety. Have the vehicle serviced by anauthorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice at regular inter- vals according to the “WARRANTY ANDMAINTENANCE MANUAL”. Check the brake system while driving at a low speed immediately after starting, espe- cially when the brakes are wet, to confirm they work normally.A film of water can be formed on the brake discs or brake drums and prevent normal braking after driving in heavy rain or throughlarge puddles, or after the vehicle is washed. If this occurs, dry the brakes out by driving slowly while lightly depressing the brakepedal.
On snowy roads, ice can form on the braking system, making the brakes less effective.While driving in such conditions, pay close attention to preceding and following vehicles and to the condition of
the road surface. From
time to time, lightly depress the brake pedal and check how effective the brakes are. It is important to take advantage of the engine braking by shifting to a lower gear while driving on steep downhill roads in order to prevent the brakes from overheating.
N00629601356
When parking on a hill, set the parking brake,and turn the front wheels toward the curb on adownhill, or away from the curb on an uphill. If necessary, apply chocks to wheels.
Place the gearshift lever into the “R” (Reverse) position when parking on a down- hill slope, into the 1s
t position when parking
on an uphill slope. Be sure that the parking brake is firmly set when parked and that the selector lever is in the “P” (PARK) position.When parking on a hill, it is important to set the parking brake before moving the selector lever to the “P” (PARK) position. This pre-vents loading the parking brake against the transaxle gear. When this happens, it is diffi- cult to move the selector lever out of the “P”(PARK) position. Never leave the engine running while you take a short sleep/rest. Also, never leave the engine running in a closed or poorly venti-lated place.
WA R N I N G Never open the radiator cap when the radiator is hot. You could be seriouslyburned.

 Fingerprints or other marks on the read surface of the disc may result in its con- tent being more difficult to read. When holding the disc, grip both edges, or oneedge and the center hole, in order that the read surface is not touched.  Do not affix paper or stickers, or other- wise damage the disc.  Do not forcefully insert a disc if another is already within the device. This can resultin damage to discs, or malfunction.  Periodically clean the read surface of the disc. When cleaning, do not wipe in a cir- cular motion. Instead, wipe gently out- wards from the center of the disc to theouter edge.  New discs may have burring around the outer edge or in the hole in the center.Ensure you check for these. If there are burrs, these may lead to faulty operation, therefore ensure these are removed.  When not using discs, ensure these are kept in cases, and stored out of direct sun- light.
 If discs are not going to be used for a long period of time, remove these from the product.
In cold environments such as in mid-winter when the interior of the vehicle is cold, turn-ing the heater on and immediately trying to use the product may cause condensation (water droplets) to form on the disc and inter-nal optical components, and this may preventthe product from operating correctly. In these conditions, remove the disc, and wait a short time before use. Actions such as unauthorized reproduction, broadcast, public performance, or rental of discs that comprise other than personal use are prohibited by law.

The following marks are printed on the disclabel, package, or jacket.
 Playback of discs other than those described in “Types of Disc That Can Be Played Back” is not guaranteed.  3 inches (8 cm) discs may not be used.  Do not insert irregularly-shaped discs (for example, heart-shaped), as these may result in malfunction. Additionally, discsthat have transparent portions may not be played back.
