2. You could be injured if the vehicles
move. Set the parking brake firmly on
each vehicle. Put an automatic trans-
mission in“P”(PARK) or a manual
transmission in“N”(Neutral). Turn off the
ignition switch.
WARNING
Turn off the ignition on both vehicles
beforehand. Take care to make sure
that the cables or your clothes do not
get caught by the fan or drive belt.
Personal injury could result.
NOTE
Turn off all lamps, heater and other elec-
trical loads. This will avoid sparks and help
save both batteries.3. Make sure that the battery electrolyte is
at the proper level.
Refer to“Battery”on page 9-6.
WARNING
If the electrolyte fluid is not visible, or
appears to be frozen, Do Not Attempt
Jump Starting!
A battery might rupture or explode if
the temperature is below the freez-
ing point or if it is not filled to the
proper level.

4. Connect one end of one jumper cable to
the positive (+) terminal of the dis-
charged battery, and the other end to
the positive (+) terminal of the booster
battery.
5. Connect one end of the other jumper
cable to the negative (-) terminal of the
booster battery, and the other end to the
engine block of the vehicle with the dis-
charged battery at the point farthest from
the battery.
NOTE
Remove the cover before connecting the
jumper cable to the positive terminal of the
battery.

(diesel-powered vehicle)

(1) Select engine oil of the proper SAE vis-
cosity number according to the atmo-
spheric temperature.
(2) Use engine oil conforming to the fol-
lowing classification:
•ACEA classification:
“For service B1, B2, B3 or B4”
•API classification:
“For service CD”or higher
NOTE
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
assembly.

Automatic transmission fluid*
EM05AEVa
The proper amount of automatic transmis-
sion fluid is essential to the life and opera-
tion of the automatic transmission. Either
insufficient fluid or excessive fluid could
cause transmission trouble. The transmis-
sion fluid filler port cap is equipped with a
dipstick. Use the following procedure to
check the fluid level.
1. Check the fluid level after the vehicle
has been driven enough to warm up the
transmission fluid.
2. Park the vehicle on a flat, level sur-
face and apply the parking brake.
3. With the engine idling and the brake
pedal fully depressed, move the trans-
mission selector lever through all the
positions from the“P”(PARK) to“D”
(DRIVE), stopping momentarily at each
position.4. Move the selector lever to the“N”
(NEUTRAL) or“P”(PARK) position.
5. Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a
clean lint-free cloth.
6. Reinsert the dipstick as far as it goes.
7. Remove dipstick and read the oil level.
The fluid level should always be
between the two marks on the dip-
stick.
8. Use only the following transmission fluid
to ensure optimum transmission
performance:
“DIA QUEEN ATF SP III”.
WARNING
Do not spill the fluid onto a hot
exhaust manifold during topping up
or inspection, or a fire may occur.

Type 1Brake fluid
EM08A-Wa
Type 1
(Except for vehicles with ABS )Check the brake fluid level in the reser-
voir.
The brake fluid level must be between the
“MAX”and“MIN”marks on the reservoir.
M08A025A
Type 2Type 2
(Vehicles with ABS )Check the brake fluid level in the reser-
voir.
The brake fluid level must be between the
“MAX”and“MIN”marks on the reservoir.
If the level is below the“MIN”mark, check
according to the following procedure:
1. Turn the ignition key to the“LOCK”or
“ACC”position.
2. Repeatedly depress the brake pedal
until significant resistance is felt
(normally after about 40 times).
3. Check the brake fluid level in the res-
ervoir.
The brake fluid level must be between
the“MAX”and“MIN”marks on the res-
ervoir.The fluid level falls slightly with wear of the
brake pads, but this does not indicate any
abnormality.
If the brake fluid level falls markedly in a
short length of time, it indicates leaks from
the brake system.
If this occurs, have the vehicle checked by
an authorized MITSUBISHI dealer.
Use brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or
DOT 4. The brake fluid is hygroscopic. Too
much moisture in the brake fluid will
adversely affect the brake system, reduc-
ing the brake performance.
In addition, the brake fluid reservoir is
equipped with a special cap to prevent the
entrance of air, and this cap should not be
removed.
The brake fluid level is monitored by a float.
When the brake fluid level falls below the
“MIN”mark, the brake fluid warning lamp
lights up.

WARNING
(1) Take care in handling brake fluid
as it is harmful to the eyes and
may also cause damage to
painted surfaces. If fluid is
spilled, wipe it up as soon as
possible.
(2) Use only the specified brake
fluid.
Also, the additives in different
brands may result in a chemi-
cal reaction when mixed
together, so avoid mixing differ-
ent brands if possible.
(3) Normally, keep the reservoir tank
cap closed to prevent the brake
fluid from deteriorating.

LHDClutch fluid*
EM10A-Ia
To check the clutch fluid
The clutch fluid in the master cylinder
should be checked when performing other
underhood services. In addition, the sys-
tem should be checked for leakage at the
same time.
Check to make certain that the clutch fluid
level is always between the“MAX”and
“MIN”level markings on the fluid reser-
voir and refill the fluid, if necessary.
A rapid fluid loss indicates a leak in the
clutch system which should be inspected
by your authorized MITSUBISHI dealer and
repaired immediately.
M10A007A
RHDTo replace the fluid
Recommended brake fluid conforming to
DOT 3 or DOT 4 should be used.
The reservoir cap must be fully tightened
to avoid contamination from foreign mat-
ter or moisture.
DO NOT ALLOW PETROLEUM- BASED
FLUID TO CONTACT, MIX WITH, OR
OTHERWISE CONTAMINATE THE
BRAKE FLUID. SEAL DAMAGE WILL
RESULT.
WARNING
Take care in handling brake fluid as
it is harmful to the eyes and may also
cause damage to painted surfaces.
When the fluid is spilled, wipe it up
immediately.
