2015 MITSUBISHI MIRAGE length

Continuously variable transmission (CVT) (if so equipped) 5-42 Features and controls
5
Move the lever to this
position only after the
vehicle has come to a complete stop. At this position, the transmission is disen- gaged. It is the same
as the neutral position on
a manual transaxle and should be used whenthe vehicle is not m
oving for an extended
length of time during driving, such as in a traffic jam.
This position is used fo
r most city and high-
way driving. The transmission will automati-cally and continuously ch
ange its gear ratio
depending on road and driving conditions. This position is for use when light engine braking at high-speed is needed, or driving up very steep hills and for
engine braking at low
speeds when descendi
ng steep gradients.

N00938700274
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.

ry is very important
for quick starting and to keep the vehicle’selectrical system working properly. Check the battery regularly.

op line because a spill
during driving could cause damage.
