When the selector lever cannot be shifted from the “P” (PARK) position to anotherposition while the brake
pedal is pressed and
held down with the operation mode in ON, the battery may be flat or the shift-lock mech-anism may be malfunctioning. Immediately have your
vehicle checked by an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility
of your choice.
If you need to move the vehicle, shift theselector lever as follows. 1. Make sure the parking brake is fully applied. 2. Stop the engine if it is running.3. Insert a screwdrive
r with a cloth over its

WA R N I N G Always press the brak
e pedal when shift-
ing the selector
lever into a gear from the
“N” (NEUTRAL) position. When beginning to drive, do not shift theselector lever from
the “N” (NEUTRAL)
position while pressing the accelerator pedal. This will cause the vehicle to“jump” forward or backward.NOTE
To prevent mistakes in operating the lever, make sure you stop brie
fly at each position.
After operating, check
the position in the
multi-information display. If the brake pedal is not depressed and held, the shift-lock device activates to prevent theselector lever from being moved from the “P” (PARK) position. For a shift indicated by in the illustra- tion, depress the brake pedal before moving the selector lever. If you attempt to move theselector lever before
depressing the brake
pedal, the selector
lever may become
immovable.

There are two ways to increase the set speed. The set speed will increase by 1 mph (1 km/h) every time you push up the “RES +” switch while the ACC is activated. If youhold the switch pushed up, the set speed increases in 5 mph (5 km/h) increments.
• When a vehicle in front is a truck loaded with freight that protrudes rearwardfrom the cargo bed.• When the height of a vehicle in front isextremely low or the road clearance ofthe vehicle is extremely high.• When driving on a r
oad with alternating
up and down surfaces.• When driving on a curve.• When driving on a bumpy or rough road.• When driving in a tunnel.• When driving in construction zones.• When the rear of your vehicle is weigheddown with the weight of passengers andluggage• For up to two minutes after starting driv-ing.• When driving in curved sections of roadincluding their entrance/outlet or run- ning beside a closed lane in a traffic work or similar zone.• When the surface of th
e sensor is covered
with dirt, snow, ice, etc.• When a front vehicle or an oncomingvehicle is splashing wa
ter, snow or dirt.
WA R N I N G
• When driving on
a winding road.
Never use the ACC in the following situa- tions:• In heavy traffic.• On winding roads.• On slippery roads, such as icy, snow-cov-ered or dirt roads.• In adverse weather conditions, such asrain, snow or sand storms, etc.• On steep downslopes.• When the inclination of a road fre-quently changes.• When the approach alarm frequentlysounds.• When your vehicle is towed or is towinganother vehicle.• When your vehicle is on a chassis dyna-mometer or free rollers.• When tire inflation pressures are notadequate.• When the temporary sp
are tire is being
used.• When the radar sensor and/or its sur-rounding area are damaged or deformed.WA R N I N G
CAUTION To maintain proper performance of the ACC:• Always clean the surface of the radar sen- sor.• Avoid impacting the radar sensor or its sur-rounding area.• Do not put a sticker on the radar sensor orits surrounding area.• Do not paint the radar sensor.• Do not install a grill guard.• Do not modify the radar sensor or its sur- rounding area.• Always use tires of the same size, sametype, and same brand, and which have no significant wear differences.• Do not modify the vehicle’s suspension.

Utility vehicles have
higher ground clearance
and a narrower track, which enables them to perform in a wide variety of off-road situa-tions. Because of the higher ground clear- ance, these vehicles have a higher center of gravity, which makes them handle differentlythan ordinary vehicles when driving on pave- ment. They are not designed to maneuver or corner 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 sati
sfactorily in off-road condi-
tions. Always drive safely and steer the vehicle carefully. Avoid operati
ng the vehicle in a
manner that might require sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers. As w
ith other vehicles of
this type, failure to ope
rate this vehicle cor-
rectly can result in loss 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 seatbelts (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 thedrive mode to “4WD ECO” or “4WD AUTO” (Electronically controlled 4WD), or “AWC ECO” or “NORMAL” (S-AW C ) . For freeway driving, maintain a speed of approximately 50 mph (80 km/h) whentraffic, 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 enginewastes 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. Similarly, prescription and nonprescription drugs affect your aler
tness, perception and
reaction time. Consul
t with your doctor or
pharmacist before dr
iving while under the
influence of any of these medications.
Driving precaution
WA R N I N G Utility vehicles have
a significantly higher
rollover rate than othe
r types of vehicles.
Avoid abrupt maneuvers and excessive speed. Always buckle up.

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.

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.
