Damaged paint
E00901201237
Small cracks and scratches in the paint coat
should be touched up as soon as possible
with MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENUINE
touch-up paint to prevent corrosion. Check body areas facing the road or the tyres
carefully for damage to the paint coat caused
by flying stones, etc. The paint code number
for your vehicle can be found on the vehicle information code plate. (Refer to “Vehicle in-
formation code plate” on page 11-02.)
Cleaning plastic parts
E00901300619
Use a sponge or chamois leather.
If a car wax adheres on a grey or black rough surface of the bumper, moulding or lamps, the surface becomes white. In such a case,
wipe it off using lukewarm water and soft cloth or chamois leather.
CAUTIONl Do not use a scrubbing brush or other hard
tools as they may damage the plastic part surface.
l Do not use wax containing compound (pol-
ishing powder) which may damage the plas-
tic part surface.CAUTIONl Do not bring the plastic parts into contact
with petrol, light oil, brake fluids, engine
oils, greases, paint thinners, and sulphuric acid (battery electrolyte) which may crack,stain or discolour the plastic parts.
If they touch the plastic parts, wipe them off
with soft cloth, chamois or the like and an aqueous solution of neutral detergent thenimmediately rinse the affected parts with
water.Chrome parts
E00901400115
In order to prevent spots and corrosion of
chrome parts, wash with water, dry thorough-
ly, and apply a special protective coating.
This should be done more frequently in win- ter.
Aluminium wheels*
E00901500321
1. Remove dirt using a sponge while sprin-
kling water on the wheel.
2. Use neutral detergent on any dirt that
cannot be removed easily with water.
Rinse off the neutral detergent after
washing the wheel.
3. Dry the vehicle thoroughly using a cha-
mois leather or a soft cloth.
CAUTIONl Do not use a brush or other hard implement
on the wheels.
Doing so could scratch the wheels.
l Do not use any cleaner that contains an abra-
sive substance or is acidic or alkaline. Doing
so could cause the coating on the wheels to peel or become discoloured or stained.
l Do not directly apply hot water using a
steam cleaner or by any other means.
l Contact with seawater and road deicer can
cause corrosion. Rinse off such substances as soon as possible.Window glass
E00901600032
The window glass can normally be cleaned
using only a sponge and water.
Glass cleaner can be used to remove oil, grease, dead insects, etc. After washing the
glass, wipe dry with a clean, dry, soft cloth. Never use the same cloth to wipe the window glass as would be used to wipe the paint-
work; wax from the painted surfaces could
adhere to the glass and reduce its transparen-
cy and visibility.

CAUTIONlNote that the support bar may disengage the
bonnet if the open bonnet is lifted by astrong wind.
l After inserting the support bar into the slot,
make sure the bar supports the bonnet se-
curely from falling down on to your head or body.
To close
1. Unlatch the support bar and clip it in its
holder.
2. Slowly lower the bonnet to a position
about 20 cm above the closed position,
then let it drop.
3. Make sure the bonnet is securely locked
by softly lifting the centre of the bonnet.
NOTEl If this does not close the bonnet, release it
from a slightly higher position.
l Do not press down the bonnet hard with a
hand as it may damage the bonnet.CAUTIONl Be careful that hands or fingers are not trap-
ped when closing the bonnet.Engine oil

The engine oil used has a significant effect on the engine’s performance, service life and
startability. Be sure to use oil of the recom-
mended quality and appropriate viscosity.
All engines consume a certain amount of oil during normal operation. Therefore, it is im-portant to check the oil level at regular inter-
vals or before starting a long trip. 1. Park the vehicle on a horizontal surface.
2. Switch off the engine.
3. Wait a few minutes.
Engine oil

The coolant level in this tank should be keptbetween the “LOW” and “FULL” marks
when measured while the engine is cold.
To add coolant
The cooling system is a closed system and normally the loss of coolant should be very
slight. A noticeable drop in the coolant level
could indicate leakage. If this occurs, we rec- ommend 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.
Also, if the reserve tank is completely empty, remove the radiator cap and add coolant until
the level reaches the filler neck.
WARNINGl Do not open the radiator cap while the en-
gine is hot. The coolant system is under
pressure and any hot coolant escaping
could cause severe burns.
Anti-freeze
The engine coolant contains an ethylene gly-
col anti-corrosion agent. The cylinder head and water pump housing are cast aluminium
alloy, and periodic changing of the engine coolant is necessary to prevent corrosion of
these parts.

Use “ MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENUINE
SUPER LONG LIFE COOLANT” or equiva- lent.
MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENUINE Coolant
has excellent protection against corrosion and rust formation of all metals including alumi-
nium and can avoid blockages in the radiator,
heater, cylinder head, engine block, etc.

Because of the necessity of this anti-corro- sion agent, the coolant must not be replaced
with plain water even in summer. The re-
quired concentration of anti-freeze differs de- pending on the expected ambient tempera-
ture.Ambient

or any engine coolants mixed with alcohol
or methanol anti-freeze. The use of an im- proper anti-freeze can cause corrosion of the
aluminium components.
