Your vehicle has been designed for both nor- mal and occasional off-road use. However, avoid driving the vehicle through areas wherethe tires may get stuck in deep sand or mud as your vehicle is designe
d primarily for use on
pavement, unlike a conventional off-roadvehicle. Keep in mind that 2-wheel drive vehicles are less capable than 4-wh
eel drive vehicles for
driving on muddy, slippery, wet or snow-cov- ered roads. Utility vehicles have
higher ground clearance
and a narrower track, which enables them toperform in a wide variety of off-road situa- tions. Because of the higher ground clear- ance, these vehicles have a higher center ofgravity, which makes them handle differently than ordinary vehicles when driving on pave- ment. They are not designed to maneuver orcorner at the same speed on pavement as con- ventional 2-wheel driv
e passenger cars any
more than low-slung sports cars are designed
to perform satisfactorily in off-road condi- tions.Always drive safely
and steer the vehicle
carefully. Avoid operating the vehicle in a manner that might require sharp turns orabrupt maneuvers. As wi
th other vehicles of
this type, failure to operate this vehicle cor- rectly can result in lo
ss of control or vehicle
rollover. In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is sig- nificantly more likely to die than a person wearing a seat belt. Be
fore starting the vehi-
cle, always make cert
ain that you and all your
passengers are properly wearing their seat belts (with children in the rear seat, in appro- priate restraints).

Fuel economy is depe
ndent on many factors.
Your personal driving habits can have a sig-nificant effect on your fuel consumption. Several recommendations
for achieving the
greatest fuel economy are listed below.  Whenever accelerating from a stop, always accelerate
slowly and smoothly.
 When parked for even a short period, do not idle the engine. Shut it off. Plan your trips to avoid unnecessary stops.
 Keep your tires inflated to the recom- mended pressures. When driving a 4-wheel drive vehicle on highways or dry improved roads, set the drive mode to “4WD ECO” or “4WDAUTO” (Electronically controlled 4WD), or “AWC ECO” or “NORMAL” (S- AW C ) . For freeway driving, maintain a speed of approximately 50 mph (80 km/h) when traffic, roadway and weather conditions safely permit.  Keep your air filter clean and your vehicle lubricated according
to the recommenda-
tions in this manual.  Always keep your ve
hicle well main-
tained. A poorly maintained engine wastes fuel and costs money.  Never overload your vehicle.
N00628900049
Drunk driving is one of the most frequent causes of accidents.Your driving ability ca
n be seriously impaired
even with blood alcohol levels far below the legal minimum. If you
have been drinking,
don’t drive. Ride with a designated non- drinking driver, call a cab or a friend, or use public transportation. Drinking coffee or tak-ing a cold shower will not make you sober.

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 andwearing their seat
belts properly (with
children in the rear seat, in appropriate restraints), and that all the doors and theliftgate are locked.
 Move the driver’s seat as far backward as possible, while keeping 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 fa
r back as possible.
 Make sure that infants 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 7-12 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 heavily worn out.As your vehicle is equi
pped with a tire pres-
sure monitoring system, there is a risk of damage to the tire inflation pressure sensorswhen the tire is replaced on the rim. Tire replacement should, onl
y, be performed by an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. Have someone watch wh
ile 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.

the tongue weight of
the trailer, if any, being towed. The tire andloading information placard located on the driver’s door sill of your vehicle will show how much weight it may properly carry. It is important to famil
iarize yourself with the
following terms before loading your vehicle:  Vehicle maximum load on the tire: load on an individual tire that is determined by distributing to each axle its share of the maximum loaded vehicle weight anddividing by two.  Vehicle normal load on the tire: load on an individual tire that is determined by dis-tributing to each axle its share of the curb weight, accessory weight, and normal occupant weight and dividing by two. Maximum loaded vehicle weight: the sum of - (a) Curb weight;(b) Accessory weight; (c) Vehicle capacity weight; and (d) Production options weight.
 Curb weight: the weight of a motor vehi- cle with standard equipment including themaximum capacity of
fuel, oil, and cool-
ant.  Accessory weight: the combined weight (in excess of those st
andard items which
may be replaced) of automatic transaxle, power steering, power brakes, power win-dows, power seats, radio, and heater, to the extent that these items are available as factory- installed equipment (whether installed or not).  Vehicle capacity weight: the rated cargo and luggage load plus 150 lbs (68 kg) * times the vehicle’s designated seating capacity. Production options weight: the combined weight of those installed regular produc- tion options weighing over 5 lbs (2.3 kg)in excess of those standard items which they replace, not prev
iously considered in
curb weight or accessory weight, includ-ing heavy duty brakes,
ride levelers, roof
rack, heavy duty battery, and special trim.  Normal occupant weight: 150 lbs (68 kg) * times the number of
specified occupants
(3 in the case of your vehicle)  Occupant distribution:
Occupant distribu-
tion within the passenger compartment (In your vehicle the distribution is 2 in front, 1 in second row seat)

For exam- ple, if the “XXX” amount equals 1400 lbs. and there will be five150 lbs. passengers in your vehi- cle, the amount of available cargo and luggage load
capacity is 650
lbs. (1400 - 750 (5 x 150) = 650lbs.)
5.Determine the combined weightof luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not safely exceed the availablecargo and luggage load capacity calculated in Step 4.6.If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your trailer will be transferred to your vehicle. Consult this manual to determinehow this reduces the available cargo and luggage load capacity of your vehicle.

To determine the cargo load capacity for your vehicle, subtract the
weight of all vehicle
occupants from the vehi
cle capacity weight.
For additional information, if needed, refer to “Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit” on page 6-8.

Cargo loads Cargo load precautions
WA R N I N G To reduce the risk of serious injury or death, the combined weights of the driver,passengers and cargo and must neverexceed the vehicle capacity weight. Exceeding the vehicle capacity weight will adversely affect ve
hicle performance,
including handling and braking, and may cause an accident. Do not load cargo or luggage higher than the top of the seatback. Be sure that yourcargo or luggage cann
ot move when your
vehicle is in motion. Having either the re
ar view blocked, or
your cargo being thrown
inside the cabin
if you suddenly have to brake can cause a serious accident or
injury or death.
Put cargo or luggage in the cargo area of your vehicle. Try to spread the weightevenly.
Loading cargo on the roof
WA R N I N G Weight placed on the
roof of the vehicle
will raise the vehicle’ and adversely affect
its handling charac-
teristics. As a result, driving errors oremergency maneuvers could lead to a loss of control and result in an accident. Drive slowly and avoid excessive maneuverssuch as sudden brak
ing or quick turning.
Make sure that the
weight of luggage and
the roof carrier do not exceed the maxi-mum roof load, 110 lb (50 kg). If the maxi-mum roof load is ex
ceeded, this could
cause damage to the ve
hicle or result in an
accident. The total weight of all occupants and lug- gage, including your r
oof load, must not
exceed the vehicle capacity weight. For more information, refer to “Tire and load- ing information placard” on page 11-3 Roof load is determined by adding the weight of the roof
carrier and the weight
of the luggage placed
on the roof carrier.
For additional information, refer to “Maximum roof load” on page 11-5.CAUTION Do not load luggage directly onto the roof. Use a roof carrier that properly fits your vehicle. For installation, refer to the instruction man-ual provided with the roof carrier. Place the luggage on the carrier so that its weight is distri
buted evenly with the heaviest
items on the bottom. Do not load items that are wider than the roof carrier.WA R N I N G

Never exceed the vehicle capacity weight, maximum trailer weight (A), maximum tongue weight (B) and Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). The vehicle capacity weight is printed on the tire and loading inform
ation placard as “com-
bined weight of oc
cupants and cargo”.
The weight includes the weight of all occu- pants and the total weight it can carry.For more information, refer to “Tire and load- ing information plac
ard” on page 6-7.
Recommendations for to
wing up to this limit
are as follows.
The tongue weight of a
ny trailer is important
because it affects the ve
hicle capacity weight.
The vehicle capacity weight includes any cargo you may carry, a
nd the people who will
be riding in the vehi
cle. If you will tow a
trailer, you must include the tongue weight of the trailer in your calculation of the vehiclecapacity weight. For more information regarding vehicle capa
city weight, refer to
“Tire and loading information placard” on page 6-7. Do not exceed the maximum tongue weightfor your vehicle. After you’ve loaded your trailer, weigh the trailer and then the to
ngue, separately, to see
if the weights are proper.Keep the trailer tongue load at 10% of the loaded trailer weight fo
r dead weight hitches.

Trailer lights and equipment must comply with federal, state,
and local regulations.
Check with your loca
l recreational vehicle
dealer for the requirements in your area, and use only equipment designed for your vehi- cle. Since lighting and wiring
vary by trailer type
and brand, you should have a qualified tech- nician install a suitable connector between thevehicle and the trailer.
Improper equipment or
installation can cause da
mage to your vehi-
cle’s electrical system
and affect your vehicle
warranty. Many states and Canadi
an provinces require
special outside mirrors when towing a trailer. Even if not required,
you should install spe-
cial mirrors if you ca
nnot clearly see behind
you, or if the trailer
creates a blind spot.
Ask your trailer sales or
rental agency if any
other items are recomm
ended or required for
your towing situation.
Towing a trailer requires a certain amount of experience. Before setting out for the open road, you’ll want to get to know your trailer. Acquaint
yourself with the feel of handling and braking with the added weight of the trailer. Alwayskeep in mind that the vehicle you are driving is now a good deal longer and not nearly as responsive as your vehicl
e is without a trailer.
Before you start, check the trailer hitch, safety chains, tires
and mirror adjustment.
Be sure your vehicle’s ti
res are inflated to the
cold inflation pressure listed in the manual. You’ll find these numbe
rs on the tire and
loading information placard at the sill of thedriver’s door. Refer to “Tire inflati
on pressures” on page
9-18. Stay at least twice as far behind the vehicle ahead as you would when driving your vehi- cle without a trailer.
This can help you avoid
situations that require
heavy braking and sud-
den turns.

Operating hints
WA R N I N G If you have a rear window open and you tow a trailer with
your vehicle, carbon
monoxide gas which
you cannot see or
smell could come into your vehicle. It can cause unconsciousness or death. Refer to“Exhaust system” on page 9-24. To maximize your safe
ty when towing a
trailer: Have your exhaust system inspected for leaks, and make necessary repairs beforestarting on your trip. Keep the rear windows closed.If exhaust does come into your vehicle through a window or
another opening,
drive with your front, main heating or cooling system on an
d with the blower on
any speed. This will
bring fresh, outside
air into your vehicle. Do not use recircula- tion because it only recirculates the air inside your vehicle. Refer to “Air selectionswitch” on page 7-9.
