Polishing
E00901100024
The vehicle should only be polished if the paintwork has become stained or lost its lustre. Matt-finish parts and plastic bumpers must not be polished, polishing these parts will stain them or damage their finish.Damaged paint
E00901200012
Small cracks and scratches in the paint coat should be touched up as soon as possible with
MITSUBISHI touch-up paint to
prevent corrosion.Check body areas facing the road or the tyres carefully for damage to the paint coat caused by
flying stones, etc. The paint
code number for your vehicle can be found on the vehicleinformation code plate in
the engine compartment.
Cleaning plastic parts
E00901300361
Use a sponge or chamois leather. If a car wax adheres on a grey
or black rough surface of the
bumper, moulding or lamps,
the surface becomes white. In
such a case, wipe it off using lukewarm water and soft cloth orchamois leather.
CAUTION
!●
Do not use a scrubbing brush or other hard tools as they may damage the plastic part surface.
●
Do not use wax containi
ng compound (polishing
powder) which may damage
the plastic part surface.
●
Do not bring the plastic part
s into contact with gaso-
line, light oil, brake fluids, engine oils, greases, paint thinners, and sulphuric ac
id (battery electrolyte)
which may crack, stain or
discolour the plastic
parts. If they touch the plastic pa
rt, wipe them off with soft
cloth, chamois or the like
and an aqueous solution of
neutral detergent then

Engine coolant
E01000501042
To check the coolant levelA translucent coolant reserve tank
is located in the engine com-
partment. The coolant level in this tank should be kept between the“LOW” and “FULL” marks when measured while the engine is cold.
To add coolantThe cooling system is a closed
system and normally the loss of
coolant should be very slight.
A noticeable drop in the coolant
level could indicate leakage. If
this occurs, we recommend you
to have the system checked as soon as possible. If the level should drop below th
e “LOW” level on the reserve
tank, open the lid
and add coolant.
Also, if the reserve tank is completely empty, remove the radia- tor cap and add coolant until the
level reaches the filler neck.
Anti-freezeThe engine coolant contains an ethylene glycol anti-corrosion agent. The cylinder head and
water pump housing are cast alu-
minium alloy, and periodic changing of the engine coolant is necessary to prevent corrosion of these parts. Use “DIA QUEEN SUPER LONG LIFE COOLANT” or equivalent.MITSUBISHI Genuine Coolan
t has excellent protection
against corrosion and rust form
ation of all metals including
aluminium and can avoid blockages in the radiator, heater, cyl-inder head, engine block, etc.
WARNING
!●
Do not open the radiator ca
p while the engine is hot.
The coolant system is u
nder pressure and any hot
coolant escaping coul
d cause severe burns.
