Parking Brake Lever Stroke - Mitsubishi MOTORS Colt 2007 Owner's Manual

Maintenance
CAUTION
!
● Do not install a tyre chain on an emergency wheel
which is compact in size. If one of the front wheels
has punctured, replace it with one of the rear wheels
and install the compact spare wheel in that place
before fitting a tyre chain.
● An aluminium wheel can be damaged by a tyre
chain while driving. When fitting a tyre chain on an
aluminium wheel, take care that no part of the chain
or fitting can come into contact with the wheel.
● Remove the wheel covers before installing a tyre
chain, otherwise they may be damaged by the tyre
chain. (Refer to "Wheel covers" on page 6-34.)
● When installing or removing a tyre chain, take care
that hands and other parts of your body are not
injured by the sharp edges of the vehicle body.
● Install the chains only on the front tyres and tighten
them as tightly as possible with the ends securely
fastened.
NOTE
● Laws and regulations concerning the use of tyre chains
vary. Find out and comply with the laws and regulations
in your driving area.
In most countries, it is prohibited by law to use tyre chains
on roads without snow.

that the ratchet makes. One click represents a lever movement
of one notch. The lever should move the specified number of
notches for normal brake application.

(Parking brake adjustment when pulled with a force of
200 N)
If the parking brake lever stroke is out of the standard range,
we recommend that you have it checked.
