The compact spare tire is stowed below the
luggage compartment floor. It is designed to
save space in the luggage compartment. Its
lighter weight makes it easier to use if a flat
tire occurs.
WARNING
 Be sure to apply chocks or blocks to the
correct tire when jacking up the vehicle. If
the vehicle moves while jacked up, the
jack could slip out of position, leading to
an accident.
NOTE
 The chocks shown in the illustration do not
come with your vehicle. It is recommended
that you purchase chocks or blocks and keep
them in the vehicle for use if needed.

If chocks or blocks are not available, use
stones or any other objects that are large
enough to hold the wheel in position.

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 compact spare tire is stowed, the
inflation pressure should be checked at least
once a month to assure that it remains at the
recommended inflation pressure. See the tire
and loading information placard attached to
the driver’s door sill. Refer to “Tire and load-
ing information placard” on page 11-3.
 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 9-19.
 The compact spare tire should be used only
temporarily. While the compact spare tire is
being used, the tire pressure monitoring sys-
tem will not function properly. Have the tire
replaced or repaired at an authorized Mit-
subishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of
your choice as soon as possible.
 Do not go over 50 mph (80 km/h) when driv-
ing with the compact spare tire.
 Avoid sudden starting and braking when
driving with the compact spare tire.
 Do not drive through automatic car washes
and over obstacles that could possibly dam-
age the underside of your vehicle. Because
the compact spare tire is smaller than the
original tire, there is less clearance between
the ground and your vehicle.
 Because the compact spare tire is designed
only for your vehicle, do not use it on any
other vehicle.
 Do not put the compact spare tire on a differ-
ent wheel, and do not put standard tires,
snow tires, wheel covers or trim rings on the
compact spare wheel. Otherwise, you could
damage these parts or other parts on your
vehicle.
