coolant MITSUBISHI GRANDIS 2010 (in English) User Guide

Diesel-powered vehicles
The
coolant level in this tank should be kept be-
tween the “LOW” and “FULL” marks when meas-
ured while the engine is cold.
FULL
LOW To add coolant
The

cooling system is a closed system and normal-
ly the loss of coolant should be very slight. A no-
ticeable drop in the coolant level could indicate leak-
age. If this occurs, we recommend you to have the
system checked as soon as possible.
If the level should drop below the “LOW” level on
the reserve tank, open the lid and add coolant. WARNING
l Do
not open the reserve tank cap while
the engine is hot. The coolant system is un-
der pressure and any hot coolant escap-
ing could cause severe burns. Anti-freeze
The

engine coolant contains an ethylene glycol anti-
corrosion agent. The cylinder head and water pump
housing are cast aluminium alloy, and periodic
changing of the engine coolant is necessary to pre-
vent corrosion of these parts.

Use only “BASF Glysantin Alu Protect
Premium/G30”.
It has excellent protection against corrosion and
rust formation of all metals including aluminium
and can avoid blockages in the radiator, heater, cyl-
inder head, engine block, etc.
Because of the necessity of this anti-corrosion
agent, the coolant must not be replaced with plain
water even in summer.
The anti-freeze must fill 50 % concentration cool-
ant in all temperature conditions. CAUTION
l
Do
not use alcohol or methanol anti-
freeze or any engine coolants mixed with
alcohol or methanol anti-freeze. The use
of an improper anti-freeze can cause cor-
rosion of the aluminium components.
l Do not top up with water only.
Water by itself reduces the rust-protec-
tive and anti-freeze qualities of the cool-
ant and has a lower boiling point. It can
also cause damage to the cooling system if
it should freeze. Do not use tapwater, as it
can cause corrosion and rust formation. During cold weather
If

the temperatures in your area drop below freez-
ing, there is the danger that the coolant in the en-
gine or radiator could freeze and cause severe dam-
age to the engine and/or radiator. Add a sufficient
amount of anti-freeze to the coolant to prevent it
from freezing.
The concentration should be checked before the
start of cold weather and anti-freeze added to the
system if necessary. Maintenance

3. Slide a new wiper blade through the hook
(B) on the wiper arm. NOTE
l Do

not allow the wiper arm to fall onto the
window glass; it could damage the glass.
4. Firmly insert the retainer (C) into the groove (D) in the wiper blade. Refer to the illustration to ensure that the re-
tainers

are correctly aligned as you insert
them into the groove. NOTE
l If

a retainer is not supplied with the new wip-
er blade, use the retainer from the old blade. General maintenance

Fuel, engine coolant, oil and exhaust
gas leakage
Look

under the body of your vehicle to check for
fuel, engine coolant, oil and exhaust gas leaks. WARNING
l If
you see a suspicious fuel leak or if you
smell fuel, do not operate the vehicle; we
recommend you to call for assistance.
Exterior and interior lamp operation
Operate
the combination lamp switch to check that
all lamps are functioning properly.
If the lamps do not illuminate, the probable cause
is a blown fuse or defective lamp bulb. Check the
fuses first. If there is no blown fuses, check the
lamp bulbs.
For information regarding the inspection and re-
placement of the fuses and the lamp bulbs, refer to
“Fuses” on page 8-20 and “Replacement of lamp
bulbs” on page 8-25.
If the fuses and bulbs are all OK, we recommend
you to have your vehicle checked and repaired.
Meter, gauge and indicator/warning
lamps operation
Run the engine to check the operation of all meters,
gauges, and indicator/warning lamps.
If there is anything wrong, we recommend you to
have your vehicle inspected. Maintenance
