wipers MITSUBISHI COLT 2009 10.G User Guide

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The catalytic converter itself gets hot quickly, and
may be damaged if overheated. The following
points should be noted in order to prevent the igni-
tion of unburned petrol within the catalytic convert-
er.
l Use UNLEADED PETROL ONLY of the
type recommended in “Fuel selection” on
page 02.
l Do not drive with an extremely low fuel lev-
el; running out of fuel could cause damage to
the catalytic converter.
l Do not attempt to start the engine by pushing
the vehicle. If the battery is weak or dis-
charged, use another battery to start the en-
gine.
l Do not idle the engine with any spark plug
wires disconnected or removed such as per-
forming diagnostic tests.
l Do not idle the engine for prolonged periods
during very rough idle or malfunctioning op-
erating conditions.
l Do not race the engine when turning off the
ignition switch. This will cause the catalytic
converter to be damaged due to contact with
unburnt fuel.
l Stop driving the vehicle if you think the per-
formance is noticeably low, or if the engine
has a malfunction such as with the ignition,
etc.
If it is impractical to stop driving immediate-
ly, reduce the speed and drive for only a
short time. We recommend you to have your
vehicle inspected as soon as possible.l In unusual situations involving grossly mal-
functioning engine operation, a burnt smell
may indicate severe and abnormal catalyst
overheating.
If this occurs, the vehicle should be stopped
in a safe place, the engine switched off and
the vehicle allowed to cool. Once the engine
is cool, a service, including a tune-up to man-
ufacturer’s specifications, should be obtained
immediately.Bonnet E01000302470
To open
Pull the release lever towards you to unlock the bon-
net.
Raise the bonnet while pressing the safety lock.
NOTE l Only open the bonnet when the wipers are in
the parked position. Failure to do so may
cause paint/body damage.

Stop the engine, depress the brake pedal several
times, and press down the pedal with your fingers
until initial resistance is felt. This distance should
be within the specified range.
A- Free play: 3 to 8 mm
If the brake pedal free play is not within the stand-
ard range, we recommend you to have it checked.
Parking brake lever stroke E01005800388
Pull the parking brake lever up to check the num-
ber of “clicks” that the ratchet makes. One click rep-
resents a lever movement of one notch. The lever
should move the specified number of notches for
normal brake application.
A- Parking brake lever stroke: 5 to 7 notches (Parking brake adjustment when pulled with
a force of 200 N)
If the parking brake lever stroke is out of the stand-
ard range, we recommend you to have it checked.
WARNINGl Continued operation of the vehicle with
the parking brake lever out of adjust-
ment may result in the vehicle moving
when unattended.Wiper blades E01002600473
If the blades are frozen to the windscreen or rear
window, do not operate the wipers until the ice has
melted and the blades are freed, otherwise the wip-
er motor may be damaged.
NOTE l Under icy conditions, do not cause high im-
pact on the wiper blade by slamming it on
the glass. In extremely low temperatures, the
plastic wiper blade is vulnerable to such
shock and may be damaged because of its
less plasticity.
