Check the tyre inflation pressure of all the
tyres while they are cold; if insufficient or ex-
cessive, adjust to the specified value.
After the tyre inflation pressure has been ad-
justed, check the tyres for damage and air
leaks. Be sure to put caps on the valves.
NOTE
l
The tyres that can be installed on your vehi-
cle are shown on the driver’s door label. For
details, contact your MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.

Check the tyres for cuts, cracks and other
damage. Replace the tyres if there are deep
cuts or cracks. Also check each tyre for
pieces of metal or pebbles.
The use of worn tyres can be very dangerous
because of the greater chance of skidding or
hydroplaning. The tread depth of the tyres
must exceed 1.6 mm in order for the tyres to
meet the minimum requirement for use.
Tread wear indicators will appear on the sur-
face of the tyre as the tyre wears, thereby in-
dicating that the tyre no longer meets the
minimum requirement for use. When these
wear indicators appear, the tyres must be re-
placed with new ones.
On 4-wheel drive vehicles, when replacement
of any of the tyres is necessary, replace all of
them.
CAUTION
l
Always use tyres of the same size, same
type, and same brand, and which have no
wear differences.
Using tyres of different size, type, brands or
degree of wear, will increase the differential
oil temperature, resulting in possible damage
to the driving system. Further, the drive train
will be subjected to excessive loading, possi-
bly leading to oil leakage, component seiz-
ure, or other serious faults.
