NOTE●
To protect the rubber parts of
the wipers, this operation of
the wipers does not take place
when the vehicle is station-
ary and the ambient temperature is about 0 °C or lower.
●
Do not cover the sensor by affixing a sticker or label to the windscreen. Also, do not put any water-repellent coating on the windscreen. The rain
sensor would not be able to
detect the extent of rain, and the wipers might stop work-ing normally.
●
In the following cases, the rain sensor may be malfunc- tioning.Have the vehicle inspected by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point. • When the wipers operate at
a constant interval despite
changes in the extent of rain. • When the wipers do not operate even though it is rain- ing.
●
The wipers may automatically
operate when things such
as rain, dust, mud, insects, tr
ee sap, oil or salt are affixed
to the windscreen on top of the rain sensor or when thewindscreen is frozen. (Wrong operation may also occur due to strong electromagnetic
waves, etc.) Objects affixed
to the windscreen wi
ll stop the wipers when the wipers
cannot remove them. To make the wipers operate
again, place the lever in the
“LO” or “HI” position.
●
Contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point when replacing the winds
creen or reinforcing the
glass around the sensor.
To adjust the sensitivity of the rain sensor
E00517100038
With the lever in the “AUTO” (rain sensor) position, it is possi- ble to adjust the sensitivity of the rain sensor by turning knob (A).NOTE●
It is possible to activate the following functions. For fur- ther information, we reco
mmend you to consult a MIT-
SUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point. • Automatic operation (rain droplet sensitive) can be changed to intermittent ope
ration (vehicle-speed sensi-
tive). • Automatic operation (rain droplet sensitive) can be changed to intermittent oper
ation (except vehicle-speed
sensitive).

Diesel particulate filter (DPF)
*
E00619800027
The diesel particulate filter
(DPF) is a device that captures
most of the particulate matter
(PM) in the exhaust emissions of
the diesel engine. The DPF auto
matically burns away trapped
PM during vehicle operation. Under certain driving conditions, however, the DPF is not able to burn away all of the trapped PM and, as a result, an exces
sive amount of PM accumulates
inside it.NOTE●
To minimize the likelihood
of excessive accumulation of
PM, try to avoid driving for long periods at low speeds and repeatedly driv
ing short distances.
DPF warning lampThe DPF warning lamp comes on or
flashes in the event of an
abnormality in the DPF system
. Provided the DPF system is
working normally, the DPF warning lamp comes on when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position and goes off a few seconds later.
WARNING
!●
The DPF reaches very high temperatures. Do not park your vehicle in areas where combustible mate- rials such as dry grass or leaves can come in contact with a hot exhaust system since a fire could occur.CAUTION
!●
Do not use any type of fuel or engine oil that is not specified for your vehicle.
Also, do not use any mois-
ture-removing agent or other fuel additive. Such substances could have a de
trimental effect on the
DPF. Refer to “Fuel selection” on page 2 and “Engine oil” on page 8-6.
