NOTE
l
Simply putting sealant and air into the tyre
using the tyre repair kit does not seal the
puncture hole. Air will leak through the
puncture hole until the emergency repair
procedure is completed (through step 19 or
step 20 of these instructions).
17. Affix the speed restriction sticker (Q) to
the three-diamond mark on the steering
wheel.
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.
18. When you have inflated the tyre to the
specified pressure, stow the compressor,
bottle, and other items in the vehicle and
promptly start driving the vehicle so that
the tyre sealant can spread evenly in the
tyre. Drive with great care. Do not ex-
ceed a speed of 80 km/h (50 mph). Ob-
serve local speed limits.
CAUTION
l
If you sense any abnormality while driving,
stop the vehicle and contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or an-
other specialist. Otherwise the tyre pressure
may drop before the emergency repair pro-
cedure is completed, rendering the vehicle
unsafe.
NOTE
l
Driving faster than 80 km/h (50 mph) can
make the vehicle vibrate.
19. After driving for 10 minutes or 5 km,
check the tyre pressure using the air
pressure gauge on the compressor. If the
tyre pressure has apparently not drop-
ped, the emergency repair procedure is
complete. Continue the process from
step 21.
If the tyre pressure is not sufficient, in-
flate the tyre to the specified pressure
again and drive the vehicle carefully
without exceeding a speed of 80 km/h
(50 mph).
CAUTION
l
If the tyre pressure is lower than the mini-
mum permitted pressure (1.3 bar {130
kPa}), the tyre cannot successfully be re-
paired with the tyre sealant. Do not drive the
vehicle any further. Contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or an-
other specialist.
20. After driving for 10 minutes or 5 km,
check the tyre pressure using the air
pressure gauge on the compressor. If the
tyre pressure has apparently not drop-
ped, the emergency repair procedure is
complete. You must still not exceed a
speed of 80 km/h (50 mph). Observe lo-
cal 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 ve-
hicle any further. Contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or an-
other specialist.
