CAUTION: Never disconnect the battery while the engine is running;
doing so could damage the car's electrical components.
REPLACING BLOWN FUSES
Before replacing a blown fuse, remove ignition key, turn off
all lights and accessories to avoid damaging the electrical system. Be
sure to use fuse with the correct indicated amperage rating. The use
of an incorrect amperage rating fuse may result in a dangerous
electrical system overload.
BRAKE PAD WEAR INDICATOR
Indicator will cause a squealing or scraping noise, warning
that brake pads need replacement.
BRAKE FLUID
WARNING: DO NOT use reclaimed fluid or fluid that has been stored
in old or open containers. It is essential that foreign
particles and other liquids are kept out of the brake fluid
reservoir.

1997-98 MAINTENANCE
Mitsubishi Maintenance & Service Intervals
Mitsubishi: Montero
* READ THIS FIRST *
Before preforming maintenance on vehicle, ensure that all
cautions and warnings have been observed to prevent vehicle damage or
personal injury. See CAUTIONS & WARNINGS in MAINTENANCE INFORMATION
article in this section.
Introduction
The frequency of scheduled inspection and maintenance
services in this article are based on "normal" vehicle usage. They DO
NOT take into account the following "severe" conditions:
* Driving In Dusty Conditions
* Trailer Towing, Police, Taxi, commercial Type Operation
* Extensive Idling, Driving In Stop-And-Go Traffic
* Short Trip Operation At Freezing Temperatures (Engine Not
Thoroughly Warmed Up)
* Driving In Sandy Areas
* Driving In Salty Areas
* More Than 50% Operation In Heavy City Traffic Or At Sustained
High Speeds During Hot Weather Above 90
F (32 C)
* Driving On Off-Road
If any of these severe conditions exist, the "normal" service
schedule frequency for some service items is inadequate and must be
supplemented. See the following section for specific details,
SEVERE SERVICE CONDITIONS/ACTIONS .
SEVERE SERVICE CONDITIONS/ACTIONS
The following table identifies eight "severe" conditions that
cause faster-than-normal wear. Each condition lists affected service
item(s) and their revised (more frequent) service interval.
If any severe condition(s) is applicable, its revised service\
interval(s) supersede those found in the "normal" schedules. Depending\
on the specific mileage/time, the revised interval(s) may overlap a
normal schedule (in which case they can be done together). If not, it
must be performed outside of the normal schedule.
