5 General information about your radio
N00733900413
Your vehicle’s radio receives both AM and FM stations.
The quality of your reception is affected by distance, obstacles,
and signal interference.
This radio complies with Part 15 of Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) Rules (for vehicles sold in U.S.A.). Opera-
tion is subject to the following conditions:

The device may not cause harmful interference.

This device must accept any interference recieved, includ-
ing interference that may cause undesirable operation.
Signal transmissionFM signals do not follow the earth surface nor are they
reflected by the upper atmosphere. For this reason, FM broad-
casts cannot be received over long distances. AM signals fol-
low the earth’s surface and are reflected by the upper
atmosphere. For this reason, AM broadcasts can be received
over longer distances.Weak reception (fading)Because of the limited range of FM signals and the way FM
waves transmit, you may experience weak or fading FM recep-
tion. When the broadcast is blocked by mountains or similar
obstructions, reception can be disturbed.
CAUTION
!
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by
the party meeting the above conditions could void
the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

7 Emission-control system maintenance
N00940800328
Your vehicle is equipped with an emission-control system that
meets all the requirements of the U.S. Environmental Protec-
tion Agency and Environment Canada. The emission-control
system is made of:

a positive crankcase ventilation system

an evaporative emission-control system

an exhaust emission-control system
To be sure the emission-control system works properly, have
your vehicle inspected and maintained by an authorized Mit-
subishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice. This
should be done at the time or mileage specified in the “WAR-
RANTY AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL”.
These, and all the other “general” maintenance services listed
in this manual, need to be performed to keep your vehicle run-
ning properly and reliably.
You should also have an inspection and service any time you
suspect a malfunction.NOTE
To meet government regulations and promote cleaner air,
your vehicle is equipped with an onboard diagnostic sys-
tem (OBD). The engine electronic control module that
controls OBD functions stores various data (especially
about the exhaust emissions). This data will be erased if
the battery cable is disconnected, which could make a
rapid diagnosis difficult. Do not disconnect the battery
cable when the engine malfunction indicator (“SERVICE
ENGINE SOON” or “Check engine light”) is ON.
Spark plugs
N00940900231
Spark plugs must fire properly to ensure proper engine perfor-
mance and emission-control.
Do not reuse spark plugs by cleaning or regapping. Spark plugs
should be replaced at the mileage specified in the “WAR-
RANTY AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL”.NOTE
Use the recommended or equivalent spark plugs listed
under “Engine specifications” on page 9-9. Use of other
plugs could cause engine damage, loss of performance or
radio noise.Fuel hoses
N00941000040
Check the hose surfaces for any heat and mechanical damage,
hard and brittle rubber, cracking, tears, cuts and abrasions. Pay
special attention to the hoses closest to high heat sources such
as the exhaust manifold. Check all the hose connections, such
as clamps and couplings, to make sure they are secure and that
there are no leaks. If you see any wear or damage, replace the
hoses immediately.Intake valve clearance
N00950100050
Have the valve clearance checked at an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer at the mileage specified in the “WARRANTY
AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL”.
If the engine sounds abnormally loud, have adjustments made
by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
