N00629301092
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 asyour vehicle is designe
d primarily for use on
pavement, unlike a conventional off-roadvehicle.Keep in mind that 2-wheel drive vehicles areless 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 differentlythan 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 amanner 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 personwearing 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).
N00628801191
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, donot idle the engine. Shut it off.Plan your trips to avoid unnecessarystops.
Keep your tires inflated to the recom-mended pressures.When driving a 4-wheel drive vehicle onhighways or dry improved roads, set thedrive mode to “4WD ECO” or “4WDAUTO” (Electronically controlled 4WD),or “AWC ECO” or “NORMAL” (S-AW C ) .For freeway driving, maintain a speed ofapproximately 50 mph (80 km/h) whentraffic, roadway and weather conditionssafely permit.Keep your air filter clean and your vehiclelubricated 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 frequentcauses of accidents.Your driving ability ca
n be seriously impaired
even with blood alcohol levels far below thelegal minimum. If you
have been drinking,
don’t drive. Ride with a designated non-drinking driver, call a cab or a friend, or usepublic transportation. Drinking coffee or tak-ing a cold shower will not make you sober.

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.

On snowy roads, ice can form on the brakingsystem, making the brakes less effective.While driving in such conditions, pay closeattention to surrounding
vehicles and to the
condition of the road surface. From time totime, lightly depress the brake pedal andcheck how effective the brakes are.It is important to take
advantage of the engine
braking by downshifting while driving onsteep downhill roads in order to prevent thebrakes from overheating.

Trailer towing
Driving safety 6-15

You’ll need more passing distance up aheadwhen you’re towing a trailer. And, becauseyou’re a good deal longer, you’ll need to gomuch farther beyond the passed vehiclebefore you can return to your lane.Hold the bottom of the steering wheel withone hand. Then, to move the trailer to the left,just move that hand to the left. To move thetrailer to the right, move your hand to theright. Always back up sl
owly and, if possible,
have someone guide you.When you’re turning with a trailer, makewider than normal turns to help prevent thetrailer from striking shoulders, curbs, roadsigns, trees or other objects.
Avoid jerky or sudden maneuvers. Signalwell in advance.Towing a trailer puts additional burden on theengine and transaxle,
which may cause over-
heating. Following ar
e some suggestions to
reduce overheating:When towing at high al
titudes, engine coolant
and automatic transaxle oil will overheat at alower temperature than at normal altitudes.If you turn your engine off immediately aftertowing at high altitude
on steep uphill grades,
your vehicle may show
signs similar to over-
heating. To avoid this
, let the engine run
while parked (preferably on level ground)with the automatic transaxle in the “P”turning the engine off.
If the engine coolant temperature indica-tor flashes on the information screen inthe multi-information display or theengine power drops suddenly, refer to“Engine overheati
ng” on page 8-4.
If the warning display or warningdisplay illuminates, re
fer to “Warning dis-
play” on page 5-70, 5-78.
Reduce speed and downshift before you startdown a long or steep downgrade. If you don’tdownshift, over using the brakes can causereduced brake efficiency.You can tow in “D” (DRIVE) position. Youmay want to shift the selector lever to the 3rdor a lower position, under heavy loads or hillyconditions.Always place chocks or blocks under both thevehicle and trailer wheels when parking. Besure that the parking brake is firmly set andthat the selector lever is in the “P” (PARK)position. Avoid parki
ng on a hill with a
trailer, but if it cannot be avoided, do so onlyafter performing the following:
Passing Backing up Making turns
CAUTIONMaking sharp turns while towing a trailercould cause the
trailer to come in contact
with the vehicle. Your
vehicle could be dam-
aged. Avoid making sharp turns while tow-ing a trailer.
