The compact spare tire is stowed below theluggage compartment fl
oor. It is designed to
save space in the luggage compartment. Itslighter weight makes it easier to use if a flattire 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, thejack could slip out of
position, leading to
an accident.NOTE
The chocks shown in the illustration do notcome with your vehicl
e. It is recommended
that you purchase chocks or blocks and keepthem 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 notbeing 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, theinflation pressure shoul
d be checked at least
once a month to assure that it remains at therecommended inflation pressure. See the tireand 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 steeringor braking, if possible. Inflate the tire to thecorrect pressure as s
oon as possible. Refer to
“Tire inflation pressures” on page 9-19.The compact spare tire should be used onlytemporarily. While the compact spare tire isbeing 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 whendriving with the compact spare tire.Do not drive through automatic car washesand over obstacles that
could possibly dam-
age the underside of your vehicle. Becausethe compact spare tire is smaller than theoriginal tire, there is less clearance betweenthe ground and your vehicle.Because the compact spare tire is designedonly for your vehicle, do not use it on anyother 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 coulddamage these parts or other parts on yourvehicle.CAUTION

8. Lower the vehicle slowly until the tiretouches the ground, by rotating the wheelnut wrench counterclockwise.9. Tighten the nuts in the order shown in theillustration 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 doorsill as shown in the illustration. Refer to“Tire inflation pressures” on page 9-19.
NOTE
If all 4 aluminum wheels are changed to steelwheels, use tapered nuts.
CAUTIONNever use your foot or a pipe extension toapply added force to the wheel nut wrenchwhen tightening the wheel nuts. If you do so,you can over-tighten the wheel nuts anddamage 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, keepyour speed down and avoid sudden steeringor braking, if possible. Inflate the tire to thecorrect pressure as s
oon as possible. Refer to
“Tire inflation pressures” on page 9-19.After changing the tire
and driving the vehi-
cle about 620 miles (1,000 km), retighten thewheel nuts to make sure
that they have not
come loose.If the steering wheel vibrates when drivingafter changing the tire, have the tire checkedfor balance at an authorized MitsubishiMotors dealer or a repair facility of yourchoice.Do not mix one type of tire with another oruse a different size from the one listed. Thiswould cause ea
rly wear and poor handling.

Proper tire inflation pre
ssure is essential for
the safe and satisfac
tory operation of your
vehicle. The wrong tire pressure will causeproblems in three major areas:SafetyToo little pressure increases flexing in thetire and can cause tire failure. Too muchpressure can cause a tire to lose its abilityto cushion shock. Objects on the road andpotholes could then ca
use tire damage that
may result in tire failure.EconomyThe wrong tire pressu
re can cause uneven
wear patterns in the tire tread. Theseabnormal wear patter
ns will reduce the
tread life, and the tire will have to bereplaced sooner.Too little pressure also makes it harder forthe tire to roll, and this uses up more fuel.Ride comfort and vehicle stabilityThe superior riding e
xperience built into
your vehicle partly de
pends on the correct
tire pressure. Too much pressure gives anuncomfortable and jarring ride. Too littlepressure feels as if
your vehicle is slow to
respond.Unequal tire pressure
s can make steering
your vehicle uneven
and unpredictable.
The tire pressure for your vehicle under nor-mal driving conditions is listed on the placardattached to the driver’s door sill.(Refer to “Tire and loading information plac-ard” on page 11-3.)The recommended inflation pressures undernormal driving conditions should be used forthe tires listed below.Tire pressures should be checked, andadjusted if necessary, at least once a month.Pressures should be checked more oftenwhenever weather temperatures changeseverely, becaus
e tire pressures change with
outdoor temperatures. The pressures listedare always “cold in
flation pressure”.
Cold inflation pressure is measured after thevehicle has been parked for at least threehours or is driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km)after having been parked for three hours.Cold inflation pressure must not go above themaximum values molded into the tire side-wall. After driving several miles, your tireinflation 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 thespecified cold pressure, or your tires will betoo low.Check your tires each t
ime you refuel. If one
tire looks lower than the others, check thepressure 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 thedriver’s door sill.)Stay within the recommended load limits.Make sure that the weight of any load inyour vehicle is evenly distributed.Drive at safe speeds.After filling your tires to the correct pres-sure, check them for damage and airleaks. Be sure to reinstall the caps on thevalve stems.

Good brakes are essential for safe driving.Check the brake pads for wear. For goodbraking performance, replace the brake padswith the same type pa
ds as the originals.
N00941700076
Brake hoses and tubing should be checkedfor:Severe surface cracking, scuffing or wornspots. If the fabric casing of the hose isshowing through any cracks or worn spotsin the rubber hose cover, the hose shouldbe replaced. The brakes can fail if thehose wears through.Improper installati
on may cause twisting,
or wheel, tire or
chassis interference.

The best way to keep carbon monoxide gasfrom 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, deteriorated, or mispo-sitioned parts if you no
tice any of the follow-
ing:A change in the sound of the exhaust sys-temThe smell of exhaust fumes inside thevehicle
WA R N I N GIf you see a fuel leak
or if you smell fuel,
do not run the engine. Any spark (includ-ing from the ignition
), flame or smoking
material could cause an explosion or fire.Call an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors
dealer or a repair fa
cility of your choice
for assistance.
