E01001101407
To check the fluid level
Check the fluid level in the reservoir whilethe engine is idling.
Check to make certain that the power steering
fluid level is always between the “MAX” and
“MIN” level markings on the fluid reservoir
and refill the fluid if necessary.
Fluid type
Use “ MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENUINE
PSF (Power Steering Fluid)”.
Battery
E01001203369
The condition of the battery is very important
for quick starting of the engine and proper functioning of the vehicle’s electrical system.
Regular inspection and care are especially
important in cold weather.
NOTEl On vehicles equipped with 2 batteries, when
the batteries are replaced, the 2 batteries
should be replaced at the same time.
If only a battery is replaced, it will cause shortening the batteries life.Checking battery electrolyte
level
The electrolyte level must be between the specified limit on the outside of the battery.
Replenish with distilled water as necessary.
The inside of the battery is divided into sev- eral compartments; remove the cap from each
compartment and fill to the upper mark. Do not top up beyond the upper mark because
spillage during driving could cause damage.
Check the electrolyte level at least once every
4 weeks, depending on the operating condi- tions.
If the battery is not used, it will discharge by
itself with time. Check it once every 4 weeks and charge with low current as necessary.
