Tyre chains
E01002101143
On 4WD vehicles in which the driving power is distributed
preferentially to the rear wheels, ensure that the tyre chains are
fitted on the rear in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions.
Use only tyre chains which are designed for use with the tyres
mounted on the vehicle: use of the incorrect size or type of
chain could result in damage to the vehicle body.
Before fitting tyre chains, we recommend you to consult a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point. The max.
chain height is as follows.
The speed limit for tyre chain is 50 km/h (31 mph) and remove
the tyre chains as soon as possible on snow free roads.

CAUTION
!
●
As your vehicle is equipped with anti-lock brake sys-
tem (ABS), in order to ensure that the anti-lock
brake system (ABS) will operate correctly in situa-
tions where tyre chains have been fitted, drive in
“4H”, “4HLc” or “4LLc”.
●
Practice fitting the chains before you need them.
Don’t expect help from other people in the cold.
●
Choose a clear straight stretch of road where you
can pull over and still be seen while you are fitting
the chains.
●
Do not fit chains before you need them. This will
wear out your tyres and the road surface.
●
After driving around 100-300 metres, stop and
retighten the chains.
●
Drive carefully and do not exceed 50 km/h (31 mph).
Remember, fitting chains is not going to stop acci-
dents from happening.
●
When tyre chains are installed, take care that they
do not damage the disc wheel or body.
●
An aluminium wheel can be damaged by a tyre
chain while driving. When fitting a tyre chain on an
aluminium wheel, take care that any part of the
chain and fitting cannot be brought into contact
with the wheel.
●
When installing or removing the tyre chains, take
care that hands and other parts of your body are not
injured by the sharp edges of the vehicle body.
