ESP MITSUBISHI ASX 2009 1.G Owner's Guide

Fluid type
Use
brake fluid conforming to DOT3 or DOT4
from a sealed container. The brake fluid is hygro-
scopic. Too much moisture in the brake fluid will
adversely affect the brake system, reducing the per-
formance. CAUTION
l
Take
care in handling brake fluid as it is
harmful to the eyes, may irritate your
skin and also damage painted surfaces.
l Use only the specified brake fluid.
Do not mix or add different brands of
brake fluid to prevent chemical reactions.
Do not let any petroleum-based fluid
touch, mix with, or get into the brake fluid.
This will damage the seals.
l Keep the reservoir tank cap closed to pre-
vent the brake fluid from deteriorating ex-
cept maintenance.
l Clean the filler cap before removing and
close the cap securely after maintenance. Battery
E01001202131
The

condition of the battery is very important for
quick starting and to keep the vehicle’s electrical
system working properly. Regular inspection and
care are especially important in cold weather.
NOTE
l After replacing the battery, the electronic con-
trol system data for the automatic transmis-
sion, etc., will be erased. As a result, shift
shocks may occur.
Shift shocks will become smoother after sev-
eral changes in speed.
Checking battery electrolyte level The electrolyte level must be between the specified
limit

on the outside of the battery. Replenish with
distilled water as necessary.
The inside of the battery is divided into several com-
partments; remove the cap from each compartment
and fill to the upper mark. Do not top up beyond
the upper mark because spillage during driving
could cause damage. Check the electrolyte level at least once every 4
weeks, depending on the operating conditions.
If

the battery is not used, it will discharge by itself
with time.
Check it once every 4 weeks and charge with low
current as necessary.
Removing and installing the upper cov-
er and duct E01010700079
To replenish with the distilled water, remove the up-
per cover and duct. WARNING
l Turn
the ignition switch to the “LOCK”
position or put the operation mode in OFF.
Make sure that your clothes cannot be
caught by the fan or drive belt. Personal
injury could result. Maintenance

l The table above shows the main equipment
corresponding to each fuse.
The fuse box does not contain spare 7.5 A, 25 A or
30 A fuses. If one of these fuses burns out, substi-
tute with the following fuse.
7.5 A: 10 A spare fuse
25 A: 20 A spare fuse
30 A: 30 A audio system amp fuse
When using a substitute fuse, replace with a fuse of
the correct capacity as soon as possible. Identification of fuse Capacity Colour

1. Before replacing a fuse, always turn off the
electrical circuit concerned and turn the igni-
tion switch to the “LOCK” position or put
the operation mode in OFF.
2. Remove the fuse puller (A) from the inside of the fuse box in the engine compartment. 3. Referring

to the fuse load capacity table,
check the fuse pertaining to the problem. Maintenance

B- Fuse is OK
C- Blown fuse
NOTE l If
any system does not function but the fuse
corresponding to that system is normal, there
may be a fault in the system elsewhere. We
recommend you to have your vehicle checked.
4. Use the fuse puller to insert a new fuse with the same capacity. Make sure you insert the
fuse into the same location in the fuse block. CAUTION
l
If
the newly inserted fuse blows again af-
ter a short time, we recommend you to
have the electrical system checked to find
the cause and rectify it.
l Never use a fuse with a larger capacity
than specified or a substitute (such as a ca-
ble or foil). Doing so could cause the cir-
cuit wires to overheat and create a fire. Replacement of lamp bulbs
E01003100488
Before

replacing a bulb, ensure the lamp is off. Do
not touch the glass part of the new bulb with your
bare fingers; the skin oil left on the glass will evap-
orate when the bulb gets hot and the vapour will
condense on the reflector and dim the surface. CAUTION
l
Bulbs
are extremely hot immediately af-
ter being turned off.
When replacing a bulb, wait for it to cool
sufficiently before touching it. You could
otherwise be burnt.
NOTE l If

you are unsure of how to carry out the
work as required, we recommend you to con-
sult a specialist.
l Be careful not to scratch the vehicle body
when removing a lamp or lens.
l When it rains or when the vehicle has been
washed, the inside of the lens sometimes be-
comes foggy. This is the same phenomenon
as when window glass mists up on a humid
day, and does not indicate a functional prob-
lem.
When the lamp is switched on, the heat will
remove the fog. However, if water gathers in-
side the lamp, we recommend you to have
the lamp checked.
Bulb capacity E01003200290
When replacing a bulb, use a new bulb with the
same wattage and colour. Maintenance
