Ventilation slotsThe ventilation slots in front of the windshield should be kept
clear of leaves or brushed clear after a heavy snowfall, so that
the operation of the heating and ventilation systems will not be
impaired.WeatherstrippingTo prevent freezing of the weatherstripping on the doors,
engine hood, etc., they should be treated with silicone grease.Additional equipment (For regions where snow is
encountered)It is a good idea to carry a shovel or a short-handled spade in
the vehicle during the winter so that you can clear away snow
if you get stranded. A small hand-brush for sweeping snow off
the vehicle and a plastic scraper for the windshield, side and
rear window are also useful.
Fuse links
N00942700099
The fuse links will melt to prevent a fire if a large current
attempts to flow through certain electrical systems.
In case of a melted fuse link, see your authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice for inspection
and replacement.
