ASC OFF indicator This indicator will turn on when the ASC is turned off with the “ASCOFF” switch.
CAUTION When display/indicator blinks, ASC is operating, which means th
at the road is slip-
pery or that your vehi
cle’s wheels are begin-
ning to slip. If this happens, drive slower. If the temperature in the braking system con- tinues to increase due
to continuous brake
control on a slippery road surface, the indicator will blink. To prevent the brake system from overheating, the brake control of the traction control
function will be tem-
porarily suspended. Th
e engine control of
the traction control
function and normal
brake operation will not be affected. Park your vehicle in a safe place. When thetemperature in the braking system has come down, the indicator will be turned off and the traction control function will start operat- ing again.
NOTE
 The indicator may come on when you start the engine. This means that the battery voltage momentarily dropped when theengine was started. It
does not indicate a
malfunction, provided th
at the display goes
out immediately.  When a spare tire has been put on your vehi- cle, the gripping ability of the tire will be lower, making it more likely that the dis- play/indicator will blink.

The tire pressure moni
toring system uses tire
inflation pressure sensors (A) on the wheels to monitor the tire inflation pressures. Thesystem only indicates wh
en a tire is signifi-
cantly under-inflated.
• Do not attempt to deta
ch or disassemble the
LDW camera.• Use only Mitsubishi Motors genuine Parts when replacing the windshield wipers.NOTE
 When driving conditions are not suitable to use the LDW, turn off the LDW.

Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recom-mended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire in
flation pressure label.
(If your vehicle has tires of a different sizethan the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pres
sure label, you should
determine the proper ti
re inflation pressure
for those tires.) As an added safety fe
ature, your vehicle has
been equipped with a ti
re pressure monitoring
system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is significan
tly under-inflated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pressure tell- tale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as
possible, and inflate
them to the proper pressure. Driving on a sig- nificantly under-inflated
tire causes the tire to
overheat and can lead to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, a
nd may affect the vehi-
cle’s handling and stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’sresponsibility to mainta
in correct tire pres-
sure, even if under-inf
lation has not reached
the level to trigger illumination of the TPMSlow tire pressure telltale. Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indica
tor to indicate when
the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale.When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one min- ute and then remain continuously illuminated.This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as
long as the malfunction
exists.When the malfunction indicator is illumi- nated, the system may not
be able to detect or
signal low tire pressure as intended.TPMS malfunctions may
occur for a variety
of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on thevehicle that prevent the TPMS from function- ing properly. Always check the TPMS mal- function telltale after
replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels
CAUTION If the tire pressure monitoring system warn- ing light does not illumi
nate when the igni-
tion switch is turned to the “ON” position orthe operation mode is put in ON, it means that the tire pressure monitoring system is not working properly. Have the systeminspected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. In such situations,
a malfunctioning of the
system may be preventing the monitoring of the tire pressure. Avoid sudden braking, sharp turning and high-speed driving. If a malfunction is detected in the tire pres- sure monitoring system, the tire pressuremonitoring system warn
ing light will blink
for approximately 1 minute and then remain continuously illuminated. The warning lightwill issue further warnings each time the engine is restarted as
long as the malfunction
exists.Check to see whether
the warning light goes
off after few minutes driving. If it then goes off during driving, there is noproblem. However, if the warning light does not go off, or if it blinks again when the engine isrestarted, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. In such situations,
a malfunctioning of the
system may be preventing the monitoring of the tire pressure. For safety reasons, when the warning light appears while driving,avoid sudden braking, sharp turning and high-speed driving.
NOTE
 In addition, the warni
ng display is displayed
on the information screen in the multi-infor-mation display.

1. If the tire pressure monitoring systemwarning light illumi
nates, avoiding hard
braking, sharp steering maneuvers and high speeds. You should stop and adjust the tires to the proper inflation pressure as soon as possible. Adjust the spare tire atthe same time. Refer to “Tires” on page 9-14.
2. If the tire pressure monitoring system warning light remains illuminated afteryou have been driving for about 20 min- utes after you adjust the tire inflation pres- sure, one or more of the tires may have apuncture. Inspect the tire and if it has a puncture, have it repaired by an autho- rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer as soon aspossible.
The tire pressure monitoring system may not work normally in the following circum- stances:  A wireless facility or device using the same frequency is near the vehicle.  Snow or ice is stuck inside the fenders and/or on the wheels. The tire inflation pres
sure sensor’s battery
is dead.  Wheels other than Mitsubishi genuine wheels are being used.  Wheels that are not fitted with tire infla- tion pressure sensors are being used. Wheels whose ID codes are not memo- rized by the vehicle are used.  Compact spare tire is fitted as a road wheel.
If the warning light / display illuminates while driving
NOTE
 In addition, the warni
ng display is displayed
on the information screen in the multi-infor- mation display.  When inspecting or adjusting the tire pres- sure, do not apply excessive force to the valve stem to avoid breakage.  After inspecting or adju
sting the tire pres-
sure, always reinstall the valve cap on thevalve stem. Without the valve cap, dirt or moisture could get into the valve, resulting in damage to thetire inflation pressure sensor.  Do not use metal valve caps, which may cause a metal reaction, resulting in corrosion and damage of the tire inflation pressure sen- sors.
 Once adjustments have
been made, the warn-
ing light will go off after a few minutes ofdriving.WA R N I N G If the warning light / display illuminates while you are driving,
avoid hard braking,
sharp steering maneuvers and high speeds.Driving with an under-inflated tire adversely affects vehicle performance and can result in an accident.CAUTION If a tire has a puncture,
replace that tire with
the spare tire. Driving on a punctured tirecould lead to an accident. The warning light / di
splay may not illumi-
nate immediately in the
event of a tire blow-
out or rapid leak.NOTE
NOTE
 To avoid the risk of da
mage to the tire infla-
tion pressure sensors, have any puncturedtire repaired by an authorized MitsubishiMotors dealer. If the tir
e repair is not done by
an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer, it is not covered by your warranty.  Do not use an aerosol puncture-repair spray on any tire.Such a spray could damage the tire inflation pressure sensors. Have any puncture repaired by an authorizedMitsubishi Motors dealer.

For a safer and more enjoyable trip, always check for the following:  Before starting the vehicle, make certain that you and all passengers are seated and wearing their seat
belts properly (with
children in the rear seat, in appropriate restraints), and that all the doors and the liftgate are locked. Move the driver’s seat as far backward as possible, while keep
ing good visibility,
and good control of the steering wheel,brakes, accelerator,
and controls. Check
the instrument panel
indicators and multi-
information display for any possible prob-lem.  Similarly, the front
passenger seat should
also be moved as far back as possible. Make sure that infa
nts and small children
are properly restrained in accordance with all laws and regulations.
Check these by selecting the defroster mode, and set the blower swit
ch on high. You should
be able to feel the air blowing against thewindshield. Refer to “Defrosti
ng or defogging (wind-
shield, door windows)” on page 7-13 Check all the tires for heavy tread wear or uneven wear patterns. Look for stones, nails, glass, or other objects
stuck in the tread. Look
for any tread cuts or
sidewall cracks. Check
the wheel nuts for tightness, and the tires (including spare tire) for proper pressure. Replace your tires before they are heavilyworn out. As your vehicle is equi
pped 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, only, be performed by anauthorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. Have someone watch while you turn all the exterior lights on and off. Also check the turn
signal indicators and hi
gh-beam indicators on
the instrument panel. Check the ground under the vehicle after parking overnight, for
fuel, water, oil, or
other leaks. Make sure
all the fluid levels are
correct. Also, if you
can smell fuel, you need
to find out why imme
diately and have it
fixed.
N00629201134
Even this vehicle’s sa
fety equipment, and
your safest driving, ca
nnot guarantee that you
can avoid an accident or injury. However, ifyou 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, blind spots, and use your turn-signal light. While driving, watch the behavior of other drivers, bicyc
lists, and pedestrians.

The compact spare tire is stowed below the luggage compartment fl
oor. It is designed to
save space in the luggage compartment. Itslighter weight makes it easier to use if a flat tire occurs.
WA R N I N G Be sure to apply choc
ks or blocks to the
correct tire when jacking up the vehicle. Ifthe vehicle moves while jacked up, the jack could slip out of
position, leading to
an accident.NOTE
 The chocks shown in the illustration do not come with your vehicl
e. It is recommended
that you purchase chocks or blocks and keep them in the vehicle for use if needed.  If chocks or blocks
are not available, use
stones or any other obj
ects that are large
enough to hold the wheel in position.
Spare tire information Compact spare tire
WA R N I N G Tires, including spar
e tire, degrade over
time with age even when they are not being used. It is recommended that tiresover 6 years generally
be replaced even if
damage is not obvious.CAUTION While the compact spare tire is stowed, the inflation pressure shoul
d be checked at least
once a month to assure that it remains at the recommended inflation pressure. See the tire and loading informati
on placard attached to
the driver’s door sill. Refer to “Tire and load-ing information placard” on page 11-3.
 Driving with an imprope
rly inflated tire can
cause an accident. If
you have no choice but
to drive with an under-inflated tire, keepyour speed down and avoid sudden steering or braking, if possible. Inflate the tire to the correct pressure as s
oon as possible. Refer to
“Tire inflation pressures” on page 9-18. The compact spare tire should be used only temporarily. While the compact spare tire is being used, the tire pr
essure monitoring sys-
tem will not function pr
operly. Have the tire
replaced or repaired at an authorized Mit- subishi Motors dealer or
a repair facility of
your choice as soon as possible. Do not go over 50 mph (80 km/h) when driv- ing 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 dam-
age the underside of your vehicle. Because the compact spare tire is smaller than the original tire, there is less clearance betweenthe 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 differ- ent 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.CAUTION

3. Rotate the jack by hand until the flange portion (B) fits in the groove (C) at the top of the jack. 4. Insert the bar (D) into the wheel nut wrench (E). Then put the end of the bar into the shaft’s jack end, as shown in the illustration.Slowly rotate the wheel nut wrench until the tire is raised slightly off the ground surface.
WA R N I N G Set the jack only at
the positions shown
here. If the jack is se
t at a wrong position,
it could dent your vehicle or the jack might fall over and ca
use personal injury.
Do not use the jack on a tilted or soft sur- face. Otherwise, the jack might slip and causepersonal injury. Always
use the jack on a
flat, hard surface. Before setting the jack, make sure there are no sand or pebblesunder the jack base.NOTE
 Put the spare wheel under the vehicle body near the jack. This makes it safer if the jack slips out of position.
WA R N I N G  Stop jacking up the ve
hicle as soon as the
tire is raised off the ground. It is danger-ous to raise the ve
hicle any higher.
Do not get under your vehicle while using the jack. Do not bump the raised
vehicle or leave it
sitting on the jack for a long time. Both are very dangerous. Do not use a jack except the one that came with your vehicle. The jack should not
be used for any pur-
pose other than to change a tire. No one should be
in your vehicle when
using the jack. Do not start or run
the engine while your
vehicle is on the jack. Do not turn the raised wheel. The tires that are still on the ground could turn and make your vehicle fall off the jack.

tion holes (H) in the wheel, and then mount the spare tire.
7. Turn the wheel nut clockwise by hand to initially tighten them. [Type 1: On vehicles
with steel wheels]
Temporarily tighten the wheel nuts by hand until the tapered parts of the wheel nuts make light contac
t with the seats of
the wheel holes and the wheel is not loose. [Type 2: On vehicles with aluminiumwheels] Temporarily tighten the wheel nuts by hand until the flange parts of the wheelnuts make light cont
act with the wheel
and the wheel is not loose.
CAUTION Handle the wheel carefully when changing the tire, to avoid scratching the wheel sur- face.WA R N I N G Mount the spare wheel with the valve stem (I) facing outward. If
you cannot see the
valve stem (I), you
have installed the
wheel backwards.Operating the vehicle with the spare wheel installed backwards can cause vehicle damage and result
in an ac
cident.
NOTE
Flange nuts can be te
mporarily used on the
compact spare wheel as shown in the illustra- tion, but return to the original wheel and tire as soon as possible.CAUTION Never apply oil to either the wheel bolts or the nuts or they will tighten too much.
