Tire repair kit (if so equipped)
CAUTION
 Any sand or dust sucked into the compressor
could make the compressor break down. Do
not place the compressor directly on any
sandy or dusty surface when using it.
 Do not disassemble or modify the compres-
sor. Also, do not subject the air pressure
gauge to shock. It could malfunction.
13. Affix the speed restriction sticker (N) to
the three-diamond mark on the steering
wheel.

CAUTION
 Do not affix the sticker anywhere except the
specified position on the pad of the steering
wheel. Affixing the sticker in an incorrect
position could prevent the SRS airbag from
deploying properly.

For emergencies
14. Check and adjust the tire pressure with
reference to the air pressure gauge on the
compressor. If you overinflate the tire,
release air by pressing the pressure release
switch (O) on the compressor.
CAUTION
 The surface of the compressor will get hot
while the compressor is running. Do not
keep the compressor running continuously
for more than 10 minutes. After using the
compressor, wait for the compressor to cool
before using it again.
 If the compressor becomes sluggish or hot
while operating, it is overheating. Immedi-
ately place the switch in the OFF position
and let the compressor cool down for at least
30 minutes.
 Do not press the pressure release switch (O)
while sealant is being injected, because the
sealant may leak from compressor.
NOTE
 If the tire pressure does not rise to the speci-
fied level within 10 minutes, the tire may be
so severely damaged that the tire sealant can-
not be used for emergency repair. Do not
drive the vehicle. Please contact an autho-
rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
15. Turn OFF the compressor switch, then
pull the power cord plug out of the 12 V
power outlet.
NOTE
 At this point the puncture hole is not sealed
yet. Air will continue to leak through the
puncture hole until the emergency repair pro-
cedure is completed (through step 17 or step
18 of these instructions).
16. When you have inflated the tire to the
specified pressure, stow the compressor
and bottle in the vehicle and promptly
start driving the vehicle so that the tire
sealant can spread evenly in the tire.
Drive with great care. Do not exceed a
speed of 50 mph (80 km/h). Observe local
speed limits.
