to “Tyre inflation pressures” on page 8-10.)
If the tyre pressure has apparently not drop-
ped, the emergency repair procedure is com-
plete. You must still not exceed a speed of
80 km/h (50 mph). Observe local speed limits.
NOTE
l
If the tyre pressure has dropped below the
specified level when you check it at the end
of the repair procedure, do not drive the vehi-
cle any further. Contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or anoth-
er specialist.
l
In cold conditions (when the ambient temper-
ature is 0 °C or lower), the time and driving
distance necessary until completion of the re-
pair can be longer than in warmer conditions,
meaning that the tyre pressure can drop be-
low the specified level even when you have
inflated the tyre a second time and subsequent-
ly driven the vehicle. If this happens, inflate
the tyre to the specified pressure once more,
drive for about 10 minutes or 5 km (3 miles),
then check the tyre pressure again. If the tyre
pressure has again dropped below the speci-
fied level, stop driving the vehicle and con-
tact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point or another specialist.
20. Affix the speed restriction sticker (R) to the
steering wheel at the position shown in the il-
lustration. Then immediately drive with great
care to a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point or another specialist and
have tyre repair/replacement performed.
CAUTION
l
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 working normally.
l
Be sure to check the tyre pressure for con-
firmation that the emergency repair pro-
cedure is complete.
NOTE
l
Please
give the empty sealant bottle to your
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point when you purchase new sealant or dis-
pose of the sealant bottle according to nation-
al regulations for the disposal of chemical
waste.
l
A tyre in which puncture sealant has been
used should ideally be replaced with a new
one. If you wish to have such a tyre properly
repaired for reuse, please contact a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point or another specialist. Note that a proper
repair is impossible following an emergency
repair if the puncture hole cannot be located.
l
Wipe away any sealant that gets on the
wheel. Provided the valve is replaced with a
new one, the wheel can be reused.
l
The manufacturer is unable to guarantee that
all tyre punctures can be repaired with the
tyre repair kit, in particular cuts or perfora-
tions with a diameter of more than 4 mm or
away from the tyre’s tread. The manufacturer
is not liable for damage sustained through im-
proper use of the tyre repair kit.
l
The manufacturer is not liable for damage sus-
tained through re-use of any tyre in which
tyre sealant has been used.
