Clutch fluid*
E01001000281
To check the fluid level
The clutch fluid in the
master cylinder should be
checked when performing other underhood service.
In addition, the system should be checked for leak-
age at the same time.
Check to make certain that the clutch fluid level is
always between the “MAX” and “MIN” level mark-
ings on the fluid reservoir. A rapid fluid loss indicates a leak in the clutch sys-
tem which should be inspected
by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or another spe-
cialist and repaired immediately.
Fluid type
Brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 should
be used.
The reservoir cap must be fully tightened to avoid
contamination from foreign matter or moisture.
DO NOT ALLOW PETROLEUM-BASED FLUID
TO CONTACT, MIX WITH, OR OTHERWISE
CONTAMINATE THE BRAKE FLUID. SEAL
DAMAGE WILL RESULT. WARNING
l Take
care
in handling
brake
fluid as it is
harmful to the eyes and may also cause
damage to painted surfaces. Wipe up any
spills immediately. Power steering fluid
E01001100703
To check the fluid level
Check the fluid level in

the reservoir while the en-
gine is idling.
Check to make certain that the power steering fluid
level is always between the “MAX” and “MIN” lev-
el markings on the fluid reservoir and refill the flu-
id, if necessary. Fluid type
Use “ATF DEXRON III or DEXRON II”. Maintenance

Before fitting tyre chains, we recommend you to
consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Serv-
ice Point. The max. chain height is as follows. Tyre size Wheel size Max. chain
height [mm] 195R15C,
215/70R15C *
15x6.0 JJ
22205R16C 16x6.0 JJ
205/80R16 16x6.0 JJ
245/70R16 16x7.0 J
245/65R17 17x7.5 J
* : 215/70R15C size should only

be used as snow
tyres. The speed limit for tyre chain is 50 km/h (30 mph)
and remove the
tyre

chains as soon as possible on
snow free roads. WARNING
l DO NOT use a
jack
when fitting the
chains, as in thsee conditions, the tyres
may slip on the icy road causing the vehi-
cle to slip off the jack. CAUTION
l
Practice fitting the chains
before
you
need them.
Don’t expect help from other people in
the cold.
l Choose a clear straight stretch of road
where you can pull over and still be seen
while you are fitting the chains. CAUTION
l
Do not fit chains before
you need them.
This will wear out your tyres and the
road surface.
l After driving around 100-300 metres,
stop and retighten the chains.
l Drive carefully and do not exceed
50 km/h (30 mph). Remember, fitting
chains is not going to stop accidents from
happening.
l When tyre chains are installed, take care
that they do not damage the disc wheel or
body.
l An aluminium wheel can be damaged by
a tyre chain while driving. When fitting a
tyre chain on an aluminium wheel, take
care that any part of the chain and fitting
cannot be brought into contact with the
wheel.
l When installing or removing the tyre
chains, take care that hands and other
parts of your body are not injured by the
sharp edges of the vehicle body.
l Install the chains only on the rear tyres
and tighten them as tightly as possible
with the ends securely fastened.
NOTE l The
laws and regulations concerning

the use
of tyre chains vary. Find out and follow the
laws and regulations of the area you're driv-
ing in.
In most countries, it is prohibited by law to
use tyre chains on roads without snow. Clutch pedal free play*
E01002200222

with your fingers until
initial resistance is felt.
This distance should be within the specified range. A- Free play: 3 to 8 mm
If the clutch pedal free

play is not within the stand-
ard range, we recommend you to have it checked. Maintenance
