Vehicle care and maintenance 9-7

Mitsubishi Motors re
commends 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
oil with the following label. This mark appears on the top of the oil con-tainer and tells you two important things about the oil.
Use engine oil with the proper thickness for the outdoor temperatures where you will bedriving.
SAE 0W-20 engine oil is strongly recom- mended for optimum fuel economy and coldstarting. If SAE 0W-20 is not available, the ILSAC certification oil of othe
r viscosity grades can
be temporarily used. The oil filter should be replaced at the time or mileage specified in the “WARRANTY AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL”. Only use high quality replacement filters onthis vehicle. The manufacturer’s specifica- tions for Mitsubishi Mo
tors Genuine oil fil-
ters require that the
filter can withstand a
pressure of 256 psi (1.8 MPa). A Mitsubishi Motors Genuine oil filter is the best replace- ment filter.

The temperature grades are A (the highest), B and C, representing the tire’s resistance to thegeneration of heat and
its ability to dissipate
heat when tested under controlled conditions on a specified indoor la
boratory test wheel.
Sustained high temper
ature can cause the
material of the tire to
degenerate and reduce
tire life, and excessive temperature can leadto sudden tire failure. The grade C corre- sponds to a level of performance which all passenger car tires must meet under the Fed- eral Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher levels ofperformance on the labora
tory test wheel than
the minimum required by law.

Proper tire inflation pres
sure is essential for
the safe and satisfactory operation of your vehicle. The wrong tire
pressure will cause
problems in three major areas:  Safety Too little pressure increases flexing in the tire and can cause tire failure. Too muchpressure can cause a tire to lose its ability to cushion shock. Objects on the road and potholes could then cause tire damage thatmay result in tire failure.
 Economy The wrong tire pressu
re can cause uneven
wear patterns in the tire tread. These abnormal wear patter
ns will reduce the
tread life, and the tire will have to bereplaced sooner. Too little pressure also
makes it harder for
the tire to roll, and this uses up more fuel. Ride comfort and vehicle stability The superior riding e
xperience built into
your vehicle partly depends on the correct tire pressure. Too much pressure gives an uncomfortable and ja
rring ride. Too little
pressure feels as if
your vehicle is slow to
respond. Unequal tire pressure
s can make steering
your vehicle uneven and unpredictable.
The tire pressure for your vehicle under nor- mal driving conditions is listed on the placard attached to the driver’s door sill.(Refer to “Tire and loading information plac- ard” on page 11-3.) The recommended infl
ation pressures under
normal driving conditions should be used for the tires listed below.
Tire pressures should be checked, and adjusted if necessary, at least once a month.Pressures should be checked more often whenever weather temperatures change severely, becaus
e tire pressures change with
outdoor temperatures. The pressures listed are always “cold in
flation pressure”.
Cold inflation pressure is measured after thevehicle has been parked
for at least three
hours or is driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) after having been parked for three hours. Cold inflation pressure must not go above the maximum values molded into the tire side-wall. After driving seve
ral miles, your tire
inflation pressure may increase 2 to 6 psi (14 to 41 kPa) from the cold inflation pressure.Do not let air out of the tires to get back to the specified cold pressure, or your tires will be too low.Check your tires each time you refuel. If one tire looks lower than the others, check the pressure for all of them.You should also take the following safety pre- cautions:

cleaner to clean the
blades and glass areas.Replace the blades if th

Your vehicle is equi
pped with an emission-
control system that me
ets all the requirements
of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and Environment Cana
da. The emission-con-
trol system is made of:  a positive crankcase ventilation system  an evaporative emission-control system  an exhaust emission-control system
To be sure the emissi
on-control system works
properly, have your ve
hicle inspected and
maintained by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice. This should be done at the time ormileage specified in the “WARRANTY AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL”. These, and all the other “general” mainte-nance services listed in this manual, need to be performed to keep
your vehicle running
properly and reliably. You should also have
an inspection and ser-
vice any time you suspect a malfunction.
N00940900231
Spark plugs must fire properly to ensure proper engine perfo
rmance and emission-
control.Do not reuse spark plugs by cleaning or regapping. Spark plugs sh
ould be replaced at
the mileage specified in the “WARRANTYAND MAINTENANCE MANUAL”.
N00941000040
Check the hose surfaces for any heat and mechanical damage, ha
rd and brittle rubber,
cracking, tears, cuts and abrasions. Pay spe-cial attention to the hos
es closest to high heat
sources such as the exhaust manifold. Check all the hose connections, such as clamps andcouplings, to make sure they are secure and that there are no leaks. If you see any wear or damage, replace the hoses immediately.
NOTE
 Do not run the wipers on dry glass for a long time. This wears out
the rubber and can
scratch the glass.
During cold weather Emission-control system maintenance
NOTE
 To meet government
regulations and pro-
mote cleaner air, your
vehicle is equipped
with an onboard diagnostic system (OBD).The engine electroni
c control module that
controls OBD functions
stores various data
(especially about th
e exhaust emissions).
This data will be erased if the battery cable is disconnected, which c
ould make a rapid
diagnosis difficult.
Do not disconnect the
battery cable when the engine malfunction indicator (“SERVIC
E ENGINE SOON” or
“Check engine light”) is ON.
Spark plugs
NOTE
 Use the recommended or
equivalent spark
plugs listed under “Engine specifications” onpage 11-6. Use of other plugs could cause engine damage, loss of
performance or radio
noise.

Check these regularly for damage or leaks inthe fuel lines and connections. Check the fuel tank filler cap for dama
ge or looseness. Pay
special attention to the fuel lines closest tohigh heat sources such

The next pages list th
e maintenance service
recommended by Mitsubishi Motors Corpo- ration. In addition to the general maintenance that needs to be performed at the times listed,there are other parts which do not usually need regular maintenance. But, if any of these parts stops working prop-erly, your vehicle performance could suffer. Have these items checked if you notice a problem with them. If you have any questions, see your autho- rized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer for assistance.

Good brakes are essential for safe driving. Check the brake pads for wear. For good braking performance, replace the brake padswith the same type pa
ds as the originals.
N00941700076
Brake hoses and tubing should be checked for:  Severe surface cracki
ng, scuffing or worn
spots. If the fabric casing of the hose isshowing through any cracks or worn spots in the rubber hose cover, the hose should be replaced. The brakes can fail if thehose wears through.  Improper installation may cause twisting, or wheel, tire or
chassis interference.
N00941800093
Check the following parts for damage and grease leaks:  Ball joint boots of the suspension and steering linkage  Bellows on both ends of the drive shaft
Intake valve clearance Fuel system (tank, pipe line and connection, and fuel tank filler cap)
WA R N I N G If you see a fuel leak
or if you smell fuel,
do not run the engine. Any spark (includ-ing from the ignition
), flame or smoking
material could cause an explosion or fire. Call an authorized Mitsubishi Motorsdealer or a repair fa
cility of your choice
for assistance.

How to calculate your gasoline mileage
You can calculate your miles-per-gallon or kilometers-per-litre
by using the following process:
1. Fill your vehicle’s fuel tank and record the odometer mile-
age.
2. Drive your vehicle as you normally do.3. Refill the fuel tank. Record the odometer mileage again,
as well as the gallons/litres of fuel used.
4. Subtract the first mileage number from the second number
to know how many miles/kilometers were driven. Divide
the number of miles/kilometers driven by the number of
gallons/litres of fuel used. This is your approximate miles-
per-gallon or kilometers-per-litre.
