5. If you do not see steam or spray coming from under the
hood, leave the engine on until the high coolant tempera-
ture warning light goes off. After the high coolant temper-
ature warning light has gone off, you can start driving
again. If the high coolant temperature warning light stays
on, turn off the engine.
6. When you do not see any more steam or spray, open the
hood. Look for obvious leaks, such as a split radiator
hose. Be careful as components will be hot. Any leak
source must be repaired.
7. If there is no obvious leak source, check the coolant level
in the engine coolant reserve tank. If there is none, or if it
is too low, slowly add coolant.8. If the engine coolant reserve tank needs coolant, you will
probably also need to add coolant to the radiator. Do not
loosen or remove the radiator cap until the engine has
cooled down.
9. Start the engine, and slowly add coolant, up to the bottom
of the filler neck. Use plain water if you have to (and
replace it with the right coolant as soon as possible).
10. Replace the radiator cap and tighten it fully. Check the
coolant temperature warning light. You can start driving
again when the high coolant temperature warning light
does not come on.
11. Have the system inspected by your authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.

!
Before raising the engine hood, check to see if there
is steam or spray coming from under the hood.
Steam or spray coming from an overheated engine
could seriously scald you.
Do not open the hood until there is no steam or
spray.
WA R N I N G
!
Removing the radiator cap could scald you with
escaping hot water or steam. When checking the
radiator level, cover the cap with a cloth before try-
ing to remove it. Turn it slowly counterclockwise,
without pressing down, to the first notch. The pres-
sure in the system will then be let out. When the
pressure is COMPLETELY LET OUT, press down
and keep turning the cap counterclockwise until it
comes off.

1. Lift up the floor board of the cargo area.
2. To remove the spare tire, remove the installation clamp
(A) by turning it counterclockwise.NOTE
The flat tire with a normal size wheel cannot be stored
beneath the floor board. Store the flat tire in the cargo
area.

The compact spare tire should be used only tempo-
rarily. While the compact spare tire is being used,
the tire pressure monitoring system will not function
properly. Have the tire replaced or repaired at an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair
facility of your choice as soon as possible.
Do not go over 50 mph (80 km/h) when driving with
the compact spare tire.
Avoid sudden starting and braking when driving
with the compact spare tire.
Do not drive through automatic car washes and over
obstacles that could possibly damage the underside
of your vehicle. Because the compact spare tire is
smaller than the original tire, there is less clearance
between the ground and your vehicle.
Because the compact spare tire is designed only for
your vehicle, do not use it on any other vehicle.
Do not put the compact spare tire on a different
wheel, and do not put standard tires, snow tires,
wheel covers or trim rings on the compact spare
wheel. Otherwise, you could damage these parts or
other parts on your vehicle.
Do not use tire chains with your compact spare tire.
Using a chain could cause damage to your vehicle
and loss of the chains.
