6If the vehicle breaks down
N00836300190
If your vehicle breaks down on the road, move to the shoulder
and turn on the hazard warning flashers. If there is no shoulder,
or the shoulder is not safe, drive in the right lane slowly, with
the hazard lights flashing, until you come to a safe stopping
place. Keep the flashers flashing. If the engine stops/fails If the engine stops, there will be no power assist to the steering
and brakes, making these difficult to use.

The brake booster will not work, so the brakes will not
grip well. The brake pedal will be harder to press than
usual.

Since there is no power steering assist, the steering wheel
will be hard to turn.When the engine fails at the intersection Get help from your passengers, bystanders, etc. to push the
vehicle and move it to a safe zone.
Jump-starting the engine
N00836400670
If the engine cannot be started because the battery is weak or
dead, you can start it with the battery from another vehicle
using jumper cables. NOTE
Although the battery in your vehicle is located in the trunk
(refer to page 7-18), use the joint terminal in the engine
compartment to jump start the engine.
1. Take off any metal jewelry such as watch bands or brace-
lets that might make an accidental electrical contact.
WA R N I N G
!
Follow the procedure described in this section when
using the jump cable to start the engine. Failure to
follow these instructions can cause serious injury or
death.
CAUTION
!
Do not try to start your vehicle by pushing or tow-
ing. Vehicles with Twin Clutch SST cannot be
started this way. Pushing or towing a vehicle that
has a manual transaxle may overheat and damage
the catalytic converter. Also, there is more risk of an
accident when a vehicle is being pushed or towed.

terminal of the joint terminal, and the other end to the pos-
itive (+) terminal of the booster battery.NOTE
Open the joint terminal cover before connecting the
jumper cable to the positive terminal of the joint terminal.

Use the proper cables suitable for the battery size.
Otherwise heat damage to the cables could result.

Check the jumper cables for damage and corrosion before
use.6. Connect one end of the other jumper cable to the negative
(-) terminal of the booster battery, and the other end to the
engine block of the vehicle with the low battery.

Be sure to follow the proper order when connecting
the batteries, of: →→→.
Make sure that the connection is made to the
engine properly. If the connection is directly made to
the negative side of the battery, the flammable gases
from inside the battery might catch fire and explode,
causing personal injury.
When connecting the jumper cable, do not connect
the positive (+) cable to the negative (-) terminal.
Otherwise sparks can make the battery explode.
CAUTION
!
Make sure that the jumper cable will not be caught
in the cooling fans or other moving parts in the
engine compartment.

8. After the engine is started, disconnect the cables in the
reverse order from the way you connected them.
As your vehicle has anti-lock brakesIf you drive your vehicle with a low battery charge, after the
engine has been started by using jumper cables, the engine may
misfire. This can cause the anti-lock braking system warning
light to blink on and off. This is only due to the low battery
voltage. It is not a problem with the brake system. If this hap-
pens, fully charge the battery and ensure the charging system is
operating properly.
WA R N I N G
!
Be sure to have an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer charge the battery. Do not charge the battery
yourself.

ric acid. If electrolyte comes in contact with your
hands, eyes, clothes, or the painted surface of your
vehicle, thoroughly flush with water. If electrolyte
gets in your eyes, flush them immediately and thor-
oughly with water, and get prompt medical atten-
tion.
Always wear protective clothing and goggles when
working near the battery.
Keep the battery out of the reach of children.
Never remove the battery label, upper cover,
exhaust tube, or pipe. Flammable gases may leak

7Service precautions
N00937300299
Taking regular care of your vehicle will preserve its value and
appearance as long as possible.
You can do some of the maintenance work yourself, and the
rest should only be performed by an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.
If you discover a malfunction or other problem, have it cor-
rected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair
facility of your choice.
This section describes the maintenance inspections that you
can do yourself, if you so desire. Follow the instructions and
precautions for each procedure.
Have you purchased the Mitsubishi Motors Diamond Care Pro-
tection Plan? The Plan supplements your new vehicle warran-
ties. See your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer for details.
WA R N I N G
!
When checking or servicing the inside of the engine
compartment, be sure the engine is stopped and has
had a chance to cool down.
If you need to work in the engine compartment with
the engine running, be especially careful that your
clothing, hair, etc. does not get caught in the fan,
drive belts, or other moving parts.
The fan can turn on automatically even if the engine
is not running. Turn the ignition switch to the
“LOCK” position to be safe while you work in the
engine compartment.
Do not smoke or allow open flames around fuel or
the battery. The fumes are flammable.

Be extremely careful when working around the bat-
tery. It contains poisonous and corrosive sulfuric
acid.
Do not get under your vehicle while it is on a jack.
Always use properly rated automotive jack stands.
Handling your vehicle’s parts and materials in the
wrong way can injure you. Ask an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your
choice if you have questions.
