Mitsubishi Motors recommends using only engine oils with the ILSAC certification sym- bol on the front of the container. If you cannot find oils
with the ILSAC certi-
fication symbol, use an API classification SN or higher oil with the following label.
This mark appears on the top of the oil con- tainer and tells you two important thingsabout the oil. Use engine oil with the proper thickness for the outdoor temperatures where you will bedriving.
CAUTION Overfilling will cause oil aeration and loss of oil pressure, which coul
d damage the engine.
WA R N I N GUsed engine oil is po
isonous, and can dam-
age your skin. Prolonged and repeatedcontact may cause serious skin disorders, including dermatitis and cancer. Do not let used oil touch your sk
in and wash thor-
oughly after working with it. Keep used oil out of
the reach of children.
NOTE
Engine oil consumption
is greatly influenced
by payload, engine speed, etc.
Good
The engine oil wi
ll deteriorate rapidly if the
vehicle is subj
ected to severe conditions (for
example, repeated operation on rough roads,in mountainous regions, on roads with many uphill and downhill gradients, or over short distances). Consequently
, the oil will require
earlier replacement in accordance with the schedule in the “WARRANTY AND MAIN- TENANCE MANUAL”.

The windshield and rear window washer fluid reservoir is in the
engine compartment.
Check the washer fluid level at regular inter-vals and add washer fluid to reservoir if nec- essary. Open the reservoir cap and check the level ofwasher fluid. The washer fluid level
should be kept approx-
imately 5 cm below the upper surface of the reservoir. When freezing weather is anticipated, flush out the water in the reservoir by operating the pump. Fill the reservoir with windshield anti- freeze (not radiator
antifreeze), and operate
the system for a few se

residual water.
