NOTElUse 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 as-
sembly.
Vehicles with diesel particulate
filter (DPF)
l Select engine oil of the proper SAE vis-
cosity number according to the atmos- pheric temperature.
l Use engine oil conforming to the follow-
ing classification: • ACEA classification: “For service C1, C2, C3 or C4”
• JASO classification: “For service DL-1”
If those classifications are not available, contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point.

E01000502153
To check the coolant level
A transparent coolant reserve tank (A) is lo-cated in the engine compartment.
The coolant level in this tank should be kept
between the “LOW” and “FULL” marks when measured while the engine is cold.
*: Front of the vehicle
To add coolant
The 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 rec- ommend you to have the system checked as
soon as possible.
If the level should drop below the “LOW” level on the reserve tank, open the lid and
add coolant.
Also, if the reserve tank is completely empty, remove the radiator cap (B) and add coolant until the level reaches the filler neck.
WARNINGl Do not open the radiator cap (B) while the
engine is hot. The coolant system is under
pressure and any hot coolant escaping
could cause severe burns.
Anti-freeze
The engine coolant contains an ethylene gly-
col anti-corrosion agent. The cylinder head and water pump housing are cast aluminium
alloy, and periodic changing of the engine coolant is necessary to prevent corrosion of
these parts.
Use “ MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENUINE
SUPER LONG LIFE COOLANT” or equiva- lent.
