NOTE
Tire inflation pressures vary with the ambient tempera-
ture. If the vehicle is subjected to large variations in ambi-
ent temperature, the tire inflation pressures may be under-
inflated (causing the warning light come on) when the
ambient temperature is relatively low. If the warning light
comes on, adjust the tire inflation pressure.Whenever the tires and wheels are replaced with
new ones
N00532900153
If new wheels with new tire inflation pressure sensors are
installed, their ID codes must be programmed into the tire pres-
sure monitoring system. Have tire and wheel replacement per-
formed by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer to avoid the
risk of damaging the tire inflation pressure sensors. If the
wheel replacement is not done by an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer, it is not covered by your warranty.

system warning light are illuminated at the same
time, the braking force distribution function will not
operate, the vehicle may be destabilized during sud-
den braking under the following conditions.
• When the brake warning light does not go out even
when the parking brake is released.
• When the brake warning light stays on while driv-
ing.If the above occurs, avoid sudden braking and high-
speed driving. Park the vehicle in a safe place, and

N00836300233
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/failsIf 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 intersectionGet help from your passengers, bystanders, etc. to push the
vehicle and move it to a safe area.
Jump-starting the engine
N00836400768
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
Do not use jumper cables if they have damage or corro-
sion.
1. Take off any metal jewelry such as watch bands or brace-
lets that might create an accidental electrical contact.
2. Position the vehicles close enough together so that the
jumper cables can reach, but be sure the vehicles aren’t
touching each other.
WA R N I N G
!
To reduce the risk of igniting flammable gas that
may be emitted from the battery, carefully read this
section before jump-starting the vehicle.
Do not try to start your vehicle by pushing or tow-
ing. This can cause an accident resulting in serious
injury or death and can damage the vehicle.
CAUTION
!
Check the other vehicle. It must have a 12-volt bat-
tery. If the other system isn’t 12-volt, both systems
can be damaged.
