Spare tire information
N00849600269
Check the air pressure of the spare tire frequently and make
sure it is ready for emergency use at any time.
Maintaining the spare tire at the air pressure listed on the tire
and loading information placard will ensure that it can always
be used under any conditions (city/high-speed driving, varying
load weight, etc.).
The spare tire is stored beneath the luggage floor board of the
luggage compartment.
WARNING
!
● Tires, including spare tire, degrade over time with
age even when they are not being used.
It is recommended that tires over 6 years generally
be replaced even if damage is not obvious.
CAUTION
!
● While the spare tire is stowed, the inflation pressure
should be checked at least once a month to assure
that it remains at the recommended inflation pres-
sure. See the tire and loading information placard
attached to the driver’s door sill. Refer to “Tire and
loading information placard” on page 9-3.
● Driving with an improperly inflated tire can cause
an accident. If you have no choice but to drive with
an under-inflated tire, keep your speed down and
avoid sudden steering or braking, if possible. Inflate
the tire to the correct pressure as soon as possible.
Refer to “Tire inflation pressures” on page 7-24.
● If your vehicle is equipped with the 17-inch-steel
spare tire or compact spare tire, it should only be
used temporarily. When the spare tire is used, the
tire pressure monitoring system will not work prop-
erly. See an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer as
soon as possible to replace or repair the original tire.
● You can use the same wheel nuts on the spare tire
wheel.
