7. If the oil level is below the specified limit, re-
move the cap located on the cylinder head
cover and add enough oil to raise the level to
within the specified range. Do not overfill to
avoid engine damage. Be sure to use the speci-
fied engine oil and do not mix various types
of oil.
8. After adding oil, close the cap securely.
9. Confirm the oil level by repeating step 4 to 6.
Use only the recommended oils with an ACEA or
API classification as specified in this manual.
NOTE l Check or refill the oil according to the follow-
ing manner.
• When the oil level is checked in step 6above, check it on a low side of the dip-
stick because it is different in appearance
of oil level in the two sides of the dipstick.
• On vehicles without diesel particulate fil- ter (DPF), the oil level should be within
the range (A) to (B) on the dipstick.
• On vehicles with DPF, the oil level should be within the range (A) to (C) (oil
replacement indication mark) on the dip-
stick.
If the oil level is beyond the oil replace-
ment indication mark (C), replace the oil
as soon as possible.
Then, the oil should be refilled to the max-
imum level (B). • On vehicles with DPF, the engine oil will
increase due to a little fuel getting mixed
in the engine oil when the DPF regener-
ates to burn away the PM (particulate mat-
ter). However, it does not indicate a mal-
function.
l The engine oil will deteriorate rapidly if the
vehicle is subjected to severe conditions, re-
quiring earlier oil replacement. Please refer
to the maintenance schedule.
l For handling of used engine oils, refer to
page 05.
Selection of engine oil
Vehicles without diesel particulate filter (DPF) l
Select engine oil of
the
proper SAE viscosity
number according to the atmospheric temper-
ature.
l Use engine oil conforming to the following
classification:
• ACEA classification:“For service A1/ B1, A3/B3, A3/B4,
A5/B5” • API classification:
“For service CF-4”
NOTE l Use
of additives is not
recommended since
they may reduce the effectiveness of addi-
tives already included in the engine oil. It
may result in failure of the mechanical assem-
bly.
Vehicles with diesel particulate filter (DPF) l
Select engine oil of
the
proper SAE viscosity
number according to the atmospheric temper-
ature.
l Use engine oil conforming to the following
classification:
• ACEA classification:“For service C1, C2, C3 or C4”
• JASO classification: “For service DL-1”
If those classifications are not available, con-
tact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
