9. Start the engine in the vehicle providing the boost. Let the engine idle a few min- utes, then start the engine in the vehiclewith the discharged battery. 
10. After the engine is  
started, disconnect the 
cables in the reverse order from the wayyou connected them. 
If you drive your vehicl 
e with a low battery 
charge after the engine has been started byusing jumper cables, th 
e engine may misfire. 
This can cause the anti-lock braking system warning light to blink on  
and off. This is only 
due to the low battery voltage. It is not a problem with the brake system. If this hap- pens, fully charge the battery and ensure thecharging system is operating properly.
N00836501447
When the engine is overheating, the follow- ing warning display will appear on the infor- mation screen in the multi-information display. Also “ ” will blink. If these warnings are displayed: 1. Stop the vehicle in a safe place. Turn on the hazard warning flashers. 2. With the engine st 
ill running, carefully 
raise the engine hood to vent the enginecompartment. 3. Check that the cooling fan is running. If the fan is not turn 
ing, stop the engine 
immediately and cont 
act an authorized 
Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facil- ity of your choice for assistance. 4. If you see steam or spray coming from under the hood, turn off the engine.
 When connecting the jumper cable, do not connect the positive (+) cable to the nega-tive (-) terminal. Sparks can make the bat-tery explode.
Charging the battery by using  an external battery charger 
WA R N I N G Always remove the 
battery from your 
vehicle when the battery is charged by an external battery charger. Keep sparks, cigarette
s, and flames away 
from the battery because the battery could explode. Keep your work area well vented when charging or using  
the battery in an 
enclosed space. Remove all the caps before charging the battery.WA R N I N G
 Electrolyte (battery acid) is made of corro- sive diluted sulfuric acid. If electrolytecomes in contact with your hands, eyes,clothes, or the pain 
ted surface of your 
vehicle, thoroughly flush with water. If electrolyte gets in your eyes, flush themimmediately and thoroughly with water, and get prompt medical attention. Always wear protecti
ve clothing and gog-

5. If you do not see stea 
m or spray coming 
from under the hood, leave the engine onuntil the high coolant temperature warn- ing goes off. After the high coolant tem- perature warning has gone off, you canstart driving again. If the high coolant temperature warning stays on, turn off the engine. 6. When you do not see any more steam or spray, open the hood. Look for obviousleaks, such as a split radiator hose. Be careful as components will be hot. Any leak source must be repaired.7. If there is no obvious leak source, check the coolant level in the engine coolant reserve tank. If there is  
none, or if it is too 
low, slowly add coolant. 8. If the engine coolant reserve tank needs coolant, you will probably also need toadd coolant to the radiator. Do not loosen or remove the radiator cap until the engine has cooled down. 
9. Start the engine, a 
nd slowly add coolant, 
up to the bottom of the filler neck. Use plain water if you have to (and replace itwith the right coolant as soon as possible). 
10. Replace the radiator cap and tighten it 
fully. Check the engine coolant tempera-ture display on the mu 
lti information dis- 
play. You can start driving again when the high coolant temperature warning doesnot come on. 
11. Have the system inspected by your autho- 
rized Mitsubishi Motors 
 dealer or a repair 
facility of your choice.

WA R N I N G Before raising the en
gine hood, check to 
see if there is steam or spray coming from under the hood. Steam or spray comingfrom an overheated en 
gine could seriously 
scald you. Do not open the hood until there is nosteam or spray.
WA R N I N G Removing the radiat
or cap could scald 
you with escaping hot water or steam.When checking the radiator level, coverthe cap with a cloth before trying to remove it. Turn it slowly counterclock- wise, without pressing down, to the firstnotch. The pressure in the system will then be let out. When the pressure is COM- PLETELY LET OUT, press down andkeep turning the cap counterclockwise until it comes off.

The automatic transaxle should be maintained and serviced by an au 
thorized Mitsubishi 
Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice to obtain the best performance and longest life. It is impor 
tant that the transaxle 
fluid is kept at the correct level. The fluid level should be checked when the bar graph for the engine coolant temperature display on the multi-information displayshows the engine is wa 
rmed up and the fluid 
in the transaxle is heated to its normal work- ing temperature. Driving with the wrong fluidlevel will rapidly wear 
 out the transaxle and 
destroy the fluid. 1. With the brake pedal fully depressed and the engine idling,  
select each gear 
momentarily, ending with the selectorlever in the “P” (PARK) position. 
2. The fluid level should be at the HOT mark, but never a 
bove the HOT mark 
when the engine is warmed up. Add or drain fluid to get to the correct level. 3. Make certain that the dipstick cap isinstalled properly to  
keep dirt and water 
out of the transaxle. 
Use only “Mitsubishi Motors Genuine ATF- J3” transaxle fluid to ensure optimum trans-axle performance. 
Mitsubishi Motors Cor 
poration does not rec- 
ommend the addition of  
any fluid additives to 
the transaxle.
