The fluid level must be between the “MAX” and “MIN” marks on the reservoir. The fluid level falls slightly with wear of the brake pads, but this
does not indicate any
abnormality. The fluid in the master cylinder should be checked when doing other work under the engine hood. The brake
system should also be
checked for leaks at the same time. If the fluid level falls noticeably in a short length of time, it indi
cates leaks from the
brake system.
If this occurs, have
the vehicle checked by an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or arepair facility of your choice. Use the brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4. The reservoir cap must be tightly sealed to keep dirt and water out.

The condition of the batte
ry is very important
for quick starting and to keep the vehicle’selectrical system working properly. Check the battery regularly.
N00901500072
The electrolyte level
must be between the
limits shown on the outside
of the battery. Fill
it with distilled water
as needed. The inside of
the battery is divided into several compart- ments. Take the cap off of each compartmentand fill to the mark. Do not fill above the t
op line because a spill
during driving could cause damage.
Brake fluid To check the fluid level
MAX MIN
Fluid type
CAUTION Do not let any petrol
eum-based fluid touch,
mix with, or get into the brake fluid. This will damage the seals. Be careful when handling brake fluid. It can damage painted surfaces. Use only the listed brake fluid. Different brands of brake fluid have different addi-tives, and these can cause a chemical reac- tion. Do not mix brands of brake fluid. Keep the reservoir ta
nk cap closed to keep
the brake fluid from evaporating.

Checking battery electrolyte level
WA R N I N G If the battery goes flat, be sure to check the battery electrolyte level before con- necting booster cables. After checking the battery electrolyte level, make sure the caps are fittedsecurely.

Damaged paint Cleaning plastic parts
CAUTION Do not use a scrubbing brush or other rough scrubber as these may
damage the plastic
surface. Do not use wax containing compounds (pol- ishing powder) which
may damage the plas-
tic surface.
Do not let plastic parts get soiled with gaso- line, oil, brake fluids
, engine oils, greases,
paint thinner, and sulfur
ic acid (battery elec-
trolyte), as such substa
nces will cause stains,
cracks, or discoloration. If any of these get on a plastic part, wipethem up with a soft cloth or chamois and a mild solution of soap and water. Then rinse them immediately with water.
Chrome parts Aluminum wheels
(if so equipped)
CAUTION
CAUTION Do not use a brush or
other hard implement
on the wheels. Do not use any cleaner th
at contains an abra-
sive substance or is ac
idic or alkaline. Doing
so could cause the coating on the wheels topeel or become disc
olored or stained.
Do not directly apply
hot water using a steam
cleaner or by any other means. Contact with seawater or road salt used for de-icing can cause corr
osion. Rinse off such
substances as soon as possible.
