1. Park the vehicle in the shade whenever possible. Parking in the hot sun makes thevehicle interior extremely hot which then requires more time to cool. If it is neces- sary to park in the sun, open the windowsfor the first few minutes of air condition- ing to expel the hot air. 2. Afterwards, keep the windows closedwhen the air conditioner is in use. The entry of outside air through open windows will reduce cooling efficiency.3. When running the air conditioner, make sure the air intake, which is located in front of the windshield,
is free of obstruc-
tions such as leaves. Leaves collected in the air-intake chamber may reduce air flow and plug the water drains.
If the air conditioner seem
s less effective than
usual, the cause might
be a refrigerant leak.
Have the system inspected by your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer
or a repair facility
of your choice.

For quick defrosting NOTE
While the “ ” indicator light is on, the air conditioning compressor
will run automati-
cally. The outside ai
r position will also be
selected and the blower
speed will be set at
the maximum au
tomatically.
 If the “ ” indicator light is on, you cannot turn the air conditioner off or select the recir- culation position. This prevents the windows from fogging up.Type 1 Type 2
 To defog quickly, direct the air flow from the side vents toward the door windows.  When defrosting, do not set the temperature to the maximum cool position. This will blow cool air on the window glass and fog itup.
Important air conditioning operating tips
NOTE
Air conditioning system refrig- erant and lubricant recommen-dations
CAUTION The air conditioning system in your vehicle must be charged with the refrigerant HFC-134a and the lubricant SUN-PAG56. Use of any other refrige
rant or lubricant will
cause severe da
mage and may re
quire replac-
ing your vehicle’s entire air conditioning system. The release of refrigerant into the atmo-sphere is not recommended. The new refrigerant HFC-134a in your vehi- cle is designed not to harm the earth’s ozonelayer. However, it ma
y contribute slightly to
global warming. It is recommended that the old refrigerant besaved and recycled for future use.

5. Remove the wheel nuts with the wheel nut wrench, then take the wheel off. 6. Clean out any mud, etc. on the hub sur- face (F), hub bolts (G)
or in the installa-
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.

8. Lower the vehicle slowly until the tire touches the ground, by rotating the wheel nut wrench counterclockwise. 9. Tighten the nuts in the order shown in the illustration until each
nut has been tight-
ened to the torque listed here.65 to 80 ft-lb (88 to 108 N•m)
10. Lower the jack all the way and remove it. 11. Check the tire inflation pressure. The rec-
ommended tire pressure for your vehicleis listed on the tire
and loading informa-
tion placard attached to the driver’s door sill as shown in the illustration. Refer to“Tire inflation pressures” on page 9-18.
NOTE
 If all 4 aluminum wheels are changed to steel wheels, use tapered nuts.
CAUTION Never use your foot or a pipe extension to apply added force to the wheel nut wrenchwhen tightening the wheel nuts. If you do so, you can over-tighten the wheel nuts and damage the wheel, wheel nuts and hub bolts.
CAUTION Driving with an imprope
rly inflated tire can
cause an accident. If
you have no choice but
to drive with an under-inflated tire, keep your speed down and avoid sudden steering or braking, if possible. Inflate the tire to thecorrect pressure as s
oon as possible. Refer to
“Tire inflation pressures” on page 9-18. After changing the tire
and driving the vehi-
cle about 620 miles (1,000 km), retighten the wheel nuts to make sure
that they have not
come loose. If the steering wheel vibrates when driving after changing the tire, have the tire checked for balance at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of yourchoice. Do not mix one type of tire with another or use a different size from the one listed. This would cause ea
rly wear and poor handling.

If your vehicle becomes
stuck in snow, sand,
or mud, it can often be moved by a rocking motion. Rock your vehicle back and forth to free it.Do not rev the engine or spin the wheels. Constant efforts to free a stuck vehicle can cause overheating and tr
ansaxle failure. Let
the engine idle for a few minutes to cool the transaxle before trying again. If your vehicle is still
stuck after several rock-
ing attempts, call for a commercial tow truck service.
 [For front-wheel driv
e vehicle equipped with
the active stability control (ASC)]If the vehicle is towed with the ignitionswitch in the “ON” pos
ition or the operation
mode in ON and only the front wheels raised off the ground (Type C), the ASC may oper-ate, resulting in an accident. When towing the vehicle with the front wheels raised, keep the ignition switch or
the operation mode as
follows. [Except for vehicles equipped with the F. A . S . T. - k e y ]The ignition switch is in “LOCK”, “OFF” or “ACC” position. [Vehicles equipped with the F.A.S.T.-key]The operation mode is in OFF or ACC.
Towing a front-wheel drive vehi- cle with front wheels off the ground (Type C)
CAUTION
Operation under adverse driving conditions If your vehicle becomes stuck in sand, mud or snow
WA R N I N G When trying to rock
your vehicle out of a
stuck position, make sure that there are nopeople nearby. The
rocking motion can
make your vehicle suddenly lurch forward or backward, and inju
re any bystanders.
On wet roads
CAUTIONAvoid flooded roads. Water is often deeper than it looks, and you could be seriously hurtby driving into flood water. When driving in rain, on water-covered roads, or through a car
wash, water could get
into the brake discs and make them fail tem- porarily. In such cases, lightly press thebrake pedal to see if they are working prop- erly. If they are not, press the pedal lightly several times while driving to dry the brakepads or linings, then check them again. When driving in rain, a layer of water may form between the tires and the road surface (hydroplaning). This loosens your tires’ grip on the road, making it difficult to steer orbrake properly. When driving on a wet road:• Drive your vehicle at a safe speed.• Do not drive on worn tires.• Always keep the tires at the correct infla- tion pressures.

It is important to famil
iarize yourself with the
following terms:  Cold tire pressure: • The measured pressu
re after the vehicle
has been parked for at least three hours, or• The measured pressure when the vehicle is driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) after having been parked for three hours.
 Maximum pressure: the maximum per- missible cold tire inflation pressure for this tire.
 Recommended inflation pressure: the inflation pressure for optimum tire perfor-mance.  Intended outboard sidewall: • The sidewall that
contains a whitewall,
bears white lettering or bears manufac- turer, brand, and/or model name molding that is higher or deeper than the samemolding on the other sidewall of the tire, or • The outward facing sidewall of an asym- metrical tire that has a particular side that must always face outward whenmounted on a vehicle.
 Passenger car tire: a tire intended for use on passenger cars,
multipurpose passen-
ger vehicles, and trucks
that have a gross
vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of 10,000 pounds or less. Light truck (LT) tire
: a tire designated by
its manufacturer as primarily intended for use on lightweight tr
ucks or multipurpose
passenger vehicles.  Tread: portion of a tire that comes into contact with the road. Tread rib: a tread se
ction running circum-
ferentially around a tire.  Tread separation: pulling away of the tread from the tire carcass.  Carcass: the tire structure, except tread and sidewall rubber which, when inflated,bears the load.
 Sidewall: portion of
a tire between the
tread and bead. Section width: the lin
ear distance between
the exteriors of th
e sidewalls of an
inflated tire, excluding elevations due tolabeling, decoration,
or protective bands.
 Bead: the part of the tire that is made of steel wires, wrapped or reinforced by plycords and that is shaped to fit the rim.  Ply: a layer of r
ubber-coated parallel
cords.  Cord: the strands forming the plies in the tire. Rim: a metal support for a tire or a tire and tube assembly upon which the tire beads are seated. Rim diameter: nominal diameter of the bead seat.  Groove: the space between two adjacent tread ribs.
Tires
WA R N I N G Driving with tires that are worn, damaged or improperly infl
ated is dangerous.
These type tire conditions will adversely affect vehicle performance. These type tire conditions can also cause atread separation or blowout which may result in an accident causing serious injury or death. Tires, including spar
e tire, degrade over
time with age even when they are notbeing used. It is recommended that tires over 6 years generally be replaced
even if damage is
not obvious.

Tire pressures should be checked, and adjusted if necessary, at least once a month.Pressures should be checked more often whenever weather temperatures change severely, becaus
e tire pressures change with
outdoor temperatures. The pressures listed are always “cold inflation pressure”. Cold inflation pressure is measured after thevehicle has been parked
for at least three
hours or is driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) after having been parked for three hours. Cold inflation pressure
must not go above the
maximum values molded into the tire side-wall. After driving se
veral miles, your tire
inflation pressure may increase 2 to 6 psi (14 to 41 kPa) from the cold inflation pressure.Do not let air out of the tires to get back to the specified cold pressure, or your tires will be too low.Check your tires each t
ime you refuel. If one
tire looks lower than the others, check the pressure for all of them.You should also take the following safety pre- cautions:
 Keep your tires inflated to the recom- mended pressures. (See the tire and load-ing information placard attached to the driver’s door sill.)  Stay within the recommended load limits.  Make sure that the weight of any load in your vehicle is evenly distributed.  Drive at safe speeds.  After filling your tires to the correct pres- sure, check them for damage and air leaks. Be sure to reinstall the caps on the valve stems.

The following maintenance steps are recom- mended:  Check tire pressures regularly.  Have regular maintenance done on the wheel balance and front
and rear suspen-
sion alignment. Rotate your tires regul
arly as described in
the “Tire rotation” section on page 9-20.

Replacing tires and wheels
CAUTION Avoid using different size tires from the one listed and the combined use of different types of tires, as this can affect driving safety.Refer to “Tires and wheels” on page 11-7. On all-wheel drive vehi
cles, always use tires
of the same size, same
type, and same brand,
and which have no wear differences. Using tires that differ in size, type, brand or thedegree of wear, will increase the differential oil temperature, resul
ting in possible damage
to the driving system. Further, the drive trainwill be subjected to ex
cessive loading, possi-
bly leading to oil leakage, component sei- zure, or other serious problems.
 Only Mitsubishi Motors Authorized wheels should be used, beca
use your vehicle is
equipped with a tire pr
essure monitoring sys-
tem. Use of another type of wheel risks air leaks and sensor damage, as it
will not be possible
to install the tire pressure sensor properly.

In some areas of the country, snow tires are required for winter driving. If snow tires are required in your area, you must choose snowtires of the same size
and type as the original
tires provided with your
vehicle. Snow tires
should also be
installed on all four wheels.
Otherwise your safety
and vehicle handling
can be reduced. Even where laws may permit it, snow tiresshould not be operated
at sustained speeds
over 75 mph (120 km/h).

The best way to keep carbon monoxide gas from entering inside your
vehicle is to have
the engine exhaust syst
em properly serviced.
Have a competent mechanic inspect the com- plete exhaust
system and nearby body areas
for broken, damaged, de
teriorated, or mispo-
sitioned parts if you not
ice any of the follow-
ing:  A change in the sound of the exhaust sys- tem  The smell of exhaust fumes inside the vehicle
 The underside or rear of the vehicle is damaged
Also check the exhaust system each time the vehicle is raised for l
ubrication, oil changes,
or required service. Any open seams or loose connections could le
t dangerous exhaust
fumes seep into the luggage and passenger compartments.  Check for holes or exhaust gas leaks caused by corrosion or damage.  Check the joints and connections for looseness or exhaust gas leaks. Check the rubber hangers and brackets for damage.
