tion is possible for English, French, Spanish, Ital-
ian, German, Dutch, Portuguese and Russian. The
factory setting is English. NOTE
l If
the voice command that

you say differs
from the predefined command or cannot be
recognised due to ambient noise or some oth-
er reason, the Bluetooth ®
2.0 interface will
ask you for the voice command again up to 3

2. Operate the hand pump (B) slowly 6 or 7
times in order to force the water out through
the drain plug (A). 3. Tighten the drain plug (A) when water no lon-
ger comes out.
4. Bleed the air in the fuel system. (Refer to “Bleeding

the fuel system” on page

Six wheel nutsCAUTION
l
Never use your foot
or
a pipe extension
for extra force in the wheel nut wrench.
If you do so, you will tighten the nut too
much.
13. Lower and remove the jack, then store the
jack, jack
handle, wheel

nut wrench, flat
tyre, and chocks. Have your damaged tyre re-
paired as soon as possible.
14. Check your tyre inflation pressure. The cor- rect pressures are shown on the door label.
See the illustration. CAUTION
l
The tyre pressure should
be
periodically
checked and maintained at the specified
pressure while the tyre is stowed.
l After changing the tyre and driving the ve-
hicle about 1,000 km (620 miles), retight-
en the wheel nuts to make sure that they
have not come loose.
l If the steering wheel vibrates when driv-
ing after changing the tyre, we recom-
mend you to have the tyres checked for
balance.
l Do not mix one type of tyre with another
or use a different size from the one listed.
This would cause early wear and poor han-
dling. Towing
E00801503640
If your vehicle needs to be towed
If towing is necessary, we

recommend you to have
it done by your MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point or a commercial tow truck service.

In the following cases, transport the vehicle using a
tow truck.
l The engine runs but the vehicle does not
move or abnormal noise is produced.
l Inspection of the vehicle’s underside reveals
that oil or some other fluid is leaking.
If a wheel gets stuck in a ditch, do not try to tow
the vehicle. Please contact your MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or a commer-
cial tow truck service for assistance.

Only when you cannot receive a towing service
from a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point or commercial tow truck service, tow
your vehicle carefully in accordance with the in-
structions given in “Emergency towing” in this part. For emergencies

Towing with rear wheels off the ground (Type C)
Place the gearshift lever in
the “N” (Neutral) posi-
tion (manual transmission) or the selector lever in
the “N” (NEUTRAL) position (automatic transmis-
sion). Turn the ignition key to the “ACC” position
and secure the steering wheel in a straight ahead po-
sition with a rope or tie-down strap. Never place
the ignition switch in the “LOCK” position when
towing.
Emergency towing
If towing service is not available in an emergency,
your vehicle may be temporarily towed by a cable
or chain secured to the towing hook.
If your vehicle is to be towed by another vehicle,
pay careful attention to the following points.
If your vehicle is to be towed by anoth-
er vehicle
1. The front towing hooks (A) and rear towinghook (B) are located as shown in the illustra-
tion. Secure the tow rope to the towing hook.

Front (2WD vehicles with 15 inch wheels) Front (2WD vehicles with 16 inch wheels and
4WD vehicles)
Rear*
NOTE
l Using
any part other than

the designated tow-
ing hooks could result in damage to the vehi-
cle body.
l Using a wire rope or metal chain can result
in damage to the vehicle body. It is best to
use a non-metallic rope. If you use a wire
rope or metal chain, wrap it with cloth at any
point where it touches the vehicle body. l
Take
care
that the
tow
rope is kept as horizon-
tal as possible. An angled tow rope can dam-
age the vehicle body.
l Secure the tow rope to the same side towing
hook, to keep the tow rope as straight as pos-
sible.
2. Keep the engine running. If the engine is not running, turn the ignition
key to the “ACC” or “ON” position to un-
lock the steering wheel. CAUTION
l
When the engine is
not
running, the
brake booster and power steering pump
do not operate. This means higher brake
depression force and higher steering ef-
fort are required. Therefore, vehicle oper-
ation is more difficult than usual.
l Do not leave the key in the “LOCK” posi-
tion. The steering wheel will lock, causing
loss of control.
3. Place the gearshift lever in the “N” (Neutral)
position (manual
transmission) or

the selec-
tor lever in the “N” (NEUTRAL) position (au-
tomatic transmission).
4. On 4WD vehicles, the transfer shift lever to “2H” position.
5. Turn on the hazard warning lamps if required by law.
(Follow the local driving laws and regula-
tions.)
6. During towing make sure that close contact is maintained between the drivers of both ve-
hicles, and that the vehicles travel at low
speed. For emergencies
