ation pressures. The
system only indicates when a tire is signifi- cantly under-inflated.

WA R N I N G The compact spare wheel does not have a tire inflation pressure sensor. When the spare tire is used, the tire pres- sure monitoring system will not work properly.See an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer as soon as possible to replace or repair the original tire.NOTE
The tire pressure monitoring system is not a substitute for regularly checking tire infla- tion pressures.Be sure to check the tire inflation pressures as described in “Tires” on page 9-13. The tire inflation pressure sensor (A) is installed in the illustrated location. • On vehicles with Type 1 sensor which has the metallic air valve (B), replace grommet and washer (C) with a new one when thetire is replaced. • On vehicles with Type 2 sensor which has the rubber air valve (D), replace rubber air valve (D) with a new one when the tire is replaced.

pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure tell- tale illuminates, you should stop and checkyour tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pres
sure. Driving on a sig-
nificantly under-inflated tire causes the tire tooverheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehi-cle’s handling and stopping ability. Pleasenote that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pres-sure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale. Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combinedwith the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one min-ute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunctionexists. When the malfunction indicator is illumi- nated, the system may not be able to detect orsignal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternat
e tires or wheels on the
vehicle that prevent the TPMS from function-ing properly. Always check the TPMS mal- function telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure thatthe replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function prop- erly.

1. If the tire pressure monitoring systemwarning light illuminates, avoiding hardbraking, sharp steering maneuvers and high speeds. You should stop and adjust the tires to the proper inflation pressure assoon as possible. Adjust the spare tire at the same time. Refer to “Tires” on page 9-13.
2. If the tire pressure monitoring system warning light remains illuminated after you have been driving for about 20 min- utes after you adjust the tire inflation pres-sure, one or more of the tires may have a puncture. Inspect the tire and if it has a puncture, have it repaired by an autho-rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer as soon as possible.
If the warning light/display illu- minates while driving
NOTE
In addition, the warning display is displayed on the information screen in the multi-infor- mation display. When inspecting or adjusting the tire pres- sure, do not apply excessive force to the valve stem to avoid breakage.
After inspecting or adjusting the tire pres- sure, always reinstall the valve cap on the valve stem. Without the valve cap, dirt or moisture could get into the valve, resulting in damage to thetire inflation pressure sensor. Do not use metal valve caps, which may cause a metal reaction, resulting in corrosion and damage of the tire inflation pressure sen- sors. Once adjustments have been made, the warn- ing light will go off after a few minutes ofdriving.WA R N I N G If the warning light/display illuminates while you are driving, avoid hard braking, sharp steering maneuvers and high speeds.Driving with an under-inflated tire adversely affects vehicle performance and can result in an accident.NOTE

The tire pressure monitoring system may not work normally in the following circum- stances: A wireless facility or device using the same frequency is near the vehicle. Snow or ice is stuck inside the fenders and/or on the wheels. The tire inflation pressure sensor’s battery is dead.
Wheels other than Mitsubishi genuine wheels are being used. Wheels that are not fi
tted with tire infla-
tion pressure sensors are being used. Wheels whose ID codes are not memo- rized by the vehicle are used. Compact spare tire is fitted on a road wheel. A window tint that affects the radio wave signals is installed.
N00532901192
If new wheels with new tire inflation pressure sensors are installed, their ID codes must be programmed into the tire pressure monitoringsystem. Have the tire and wheel replacement performed by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer to avoid the risk of damagingthe tire inflation pressure sensors. If the
wheel replacement is not done by an autho- rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer, it is not cov- ered by your warranty.
N00533001246
Your tire pressure monitoring system oper- ates on a radio frequency subject to Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules (For vehicles sold in U.S.A.) and IndustryCanada Rules (For vehicles sold in Canada). This device complies with part 15 of FCC Rules and Industry Canada licence-exemptRSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two con- ditions. This device may not cause harmful inter- ference. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that maycause undesired operation.
CAUTION If a tire has a puncture, replace that tire with the spare tire. Driving on a punctured tire could lead to an accident. The warning light/display may not illuminate immediately in the event of a tire blowout or rapid leak.NOTE
To avoid the risk of damage to the tire infla- tion pressure sensors, have any punctured tire repaired by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. If the tire repair is not done byan authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer, it is not covered by your warranty. Do not use an aerosol puncture-repair spray on any tire. Such a spray could damage the tire inflationpressure sensors. Have any puncture repaired by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
NOTE
Tire inflation pressures vary with the ambi- ent temperature. If the
vehicle is subjected to
large variations in ambient temperature, the tire inflation pressures may be under-inflated (causing the warning light/display to comeon) when the ambient temperature is rela- tively low. If the warning light/display comes on, adjust the tire inflation pressure.
Whenever the tires and wheels are replaced with new ones
CAUTION The use of non-genuine wheels will prevent the proper fit of the tire inflation pressure sensors, resulting air leakage or damage of the sensors.

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 and wearing their seat belts properly (with children in the rear seat, in appropriaterestraints), and that all the doors and lift- gate are locked. Move the driver’s seat as far backward as possible, while still keeping good visibil- ity, and good control of the steering wheel, brakes, accelerator, and controls.Check the instrument panel indicators and multi-information display for any possible problem. In the same way, the front passenger seat should also be moved as far back as possi- ble. 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 switch on high. Youshould be able to feel the air blowing against the windshield. Refer to “Defrosting or defogging (wind-shield, door windows)” on page 7-8, 7-13, 7-19, 7-24. 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. Checkthe 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 equipped with a tire pres- sure monitoring system, there is a risk ofdamage to the tire inflation pressure sensors when the tire is replaced on the rim. Tire replacement should, therefore, be performedonly by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
Have someone watch while you turn all the exterior lights on and off. Also check the turnsignal indicators and high-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 needto find out why immediately and have it fixed.
N00629200094
Even this vehicle’s safety equipment, andyour safest driving, cannot guarantee that you can avoid an accident or injury. However, ifyou give extra attention to the following areas, you can better protect yourself and your passengers: Drive defensively. Be aware of traffic, road and weather conditions. Leave plenty of stopping distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead.
