N00629001709
For a safer and more enjoyable trip, alwayscheck for the following:Before starting the vehicle, make certainthat you and all passengers are seated andwearing their seat
belts properly (with
children in the rear seat, in appropriaterestraints), and that all the doors and theliftgate are locked.
Move the driver’s seat as far backward aspossible, while keeping good visibility,and good control of the steering wheel,brakes, accelerator, and controls. Checkthe 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 childrenare properly restrained in accordance withall 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 7-12Check all the tires for heavy tread wear oruneven 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 sensorswhen the tire is replaced on the rim. Tirereplacement 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 turnsignal indicators and hi
gh-beam indicators on
the instrument panel.Check the ground under the vehicle afterparking 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.

Normally, the catalyti
c converter does not
require maintenance. However, it is importantto keep the engine properly tuned for the con-verter to continue to work properly.To reduce the possibili
ty of catalytic con-
verter damage:Use UNLEADED GASOLINE ONLY ofthe type of recommended in the “Fuelselection”.Do not drive with an extremely low fuellevel. Running out of gas could damagethe catalytic converter.
Do not try to start the engine by pushingor towing the vehicle. If the battery isweak or run down, use jumper cables toproperly start the engine.Do not idle the engine with any spark plugwires disconnected or removed, such aswhen performing
diagnosti
c tests.
Do not idle the engine
for a long time if it
is idling roughly or otherwise obviouslymalfunctioning.To prevent the catalytic converter frombeing damaged from unburned gas, do notrace the engine when turning off the igni-tion switch.Stop driving the vehicle if you think theperformance is noticeably low, or theengine has a malfunction such as with theignition, etc. If you are not able to stopdriving immediately,
slow down and drive
for only a short time. Have your vehiclechecked at an authorized MitsubishiMotors dealer or a repair facility of yourchoice as soon
as possible.
In unusual situations involving majorengine problems, a burning odor mayindicate severe and abnormal catalyticconverter overheating.
If this occurs, stop
in a safe place, shut the engine off and letthe vehicle cool. Once
the engine is cool,
immediately take
your vehicle to an
authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer or a
repair facility of your choice for service.
N00937501588
Use the engine hood release lever (locatedunder the instrument panel near the driver’sdoor) to unlock the engine hood.Pull the lever toward you to release theengine hood latch.
CAUTIONDamage to the catalyti
c converter can result
if your vehicle is not
kept in proper operating
condition. If the engine
malfunctions or mis-
fires, or if your vehi
cle performance suffers,
have it serviced promptly. Running yourvehicle when it is
overheated may result in
damage to the converter and vehicle.WA R N I N GDo not park or run your vehicle in areaswhere combustible materials such as drygrass or leaves can come
in contact with a
hot exhaust, since a fire could occur.Do not put undercoat paint on the cata-lytic converter.
