WARNINGS REGARDING SERVICING OF SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) EQUIPPED VEHICLES
WARNING!
(1) Improper service or maintenance of any component of the
SRS, or any SRS-related component, can lead to personal
injury or death to service personnel (from inadvertent firing of the air bag) or to the driver and passenger (from render-
ing the SRS inoperative).
(2) Service or maintenance of any SRS component or
SRS-related component must be performed only at an authorized
MITSUBISHI dealer.
(3)MITSUBISHI dealer personnel must thoroughly review this manual, and especially its GROUP 52B
TSupplemental Re-
straint System (SRS) and GROUP 00 -Maintenance Service before beginning any service or maintenance of any com-
ponent of the SRS or any
SRS-related component.
NOTE
The SRS includes the following components: impact sensors, SRS diagnosis unit, SRS warning light, air bag module, clock spring
and interconnecting wiring. Other SRS-related components (that may
h,a”” to be removed/installed in connection with SRS serviceor maintenance) are indicated in the table of contents by an asterisk ( ).

BATTERY INSPECTION
BAlTERY VISUAL CHECK (1)
The battery contains a visual test indicator which gives blue
signal when an adequate charge level exists, and white signal
when charging is required.
BAlTERY VISUAL CHECK (2)
Make sure ignition switch is in Off position and all battery
feed accessories are Off.
1.Disconnect ground cable from battery before disconnecting
(+) cable.
2. Remove battery from vehicle.
CautionCare should be taken in the event battery case is
cracked or leaking to protect hands from the electro-
lyte. A suitable pair of rubber gloves (not the house-hold type) should be worn when removing battery
by hand.
3.Inspect battery carrier for damage caused by loss of acid
from battery. If acid damage is present, it will be necessaryto clean area with a solution of clean warm water and
baking soda. Scrub area with a stiff bristle brush and wipe
off with a cloth moistened with ammonia or baking soda
in water.

4. Clean top of battery with same solutions as described
in step (3).
5.Inspect battery case and cover for cracks. If cracks are
present, battery must be replaced.
6.Clean the battery post with a suitable battery post cleaning
tool.7. Clean the inside surfaces of the terminal clamps with a
suitable battery terminal cleaning tool. Replace damaged
or frayed cables and broken terminals clamps.8. Install the battery in vehicle.
9.Connect (+) and (-) cables to battery in the order of men-
tion.
10. Tighten the clamp nut securely.BATTERY
CHARGLNG
Caution
When batteries are being charged, an explosive gas forms
beneath the cover of each cell. Do not smoke near batteries
on charge or which have recently been charged. Do notbreak live circuits at the terminals of the batteries on
charge. A spark will occur where the live circuit is broken.
Keep all open flames away from the battery.
Battery electrolyte temperature may temporarily be allowed
to rise to 55°C (131°F). Increase of electrolyte temperature
above 55°C (131 OF) is harmful to the battery, causing deforma-tion of battery cell, decrease in life of battery, etc.
CHARGE RATE
If the test indicator is white, the battery should be charged
as outlined below.
When the dot appears or when maximum charge shown below
is reached, charging should be stopped.
NOTE
When the charging is performed at 5 amps, charging is virtually
100% three hours after the indicator’s indication changes from
white to green.
Use fast charging only in an emergency.
If the indicator does not turn to green even after the battery
is charged, the battery should be replaced; do not overcharge.
