NOTE
 Once adjustments have been made, the warn-
ing light will go off after a few minutes of
driving.
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.
WARNING
 If the warning light / display illuminates
while you are driving, avoid hard braking,
sharp steering maneuvers
speeds.
Driving with an under-inflated
adversely affects vehicle performance and
can result in an accident.
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 illumi-
nate immediately in the event of a tire blow-
out 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 by
an 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 inflation
pressure sensors.
Have any puncture repaired by an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
The tire pressure monitoring system may not
work normally in the following circum-
stances:
 A wireless facility or device using the
and high
same frequency is near the vehicle.
 Snow or ice is stuck inside the fenders
tire
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 fitted 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 as a road
wheel.
Tire pressure monitoring system
 A window tint that affects the radio wave
signals is installed.
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 come on)
when the ambient temperature is relatively
low. If the warning light / display comes on,
adjust the tire inflation pressure.
Whenever the tires and wheels
are replaced with new ones
If new wheels with new tire inflation pressure
sensors are installed, their ID codes must be
programmed into the tire pressure monitoring
system. Have tire and wheel replacement per-
formed by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer to avoid the risk of damaging the tire
inflation pressure sensors. If the wheel
replacement is not done by an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer, it is not covered by
your warranty.
