CAUTIONlDo not touch the heating element or the cig-
arette lighter housing, hold the knob only to prevent burns.
l Do not allow children to operate or play with
the cigarette lighter as burns may occur.
l Something is wrong with the cigarette light-
er if it does not pop back out within approxi-
mately 30 seconds of being pushed in.
Pull it out and have the problem corrected at MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
l Do not use any electric appliance that is not
approved by MITSUBISHI MOTORS . Do-
ing so could damage the socket. If you used
the cigarette lighter after damaging the sock- et, the cigarette lighter might pop out or fail
to come out after being pushed in.
l When the cigarette lighter socket is used as a
power source for an electric appliance, be sure that the electric appliance operates at
12 V and has an electric capacity of 120 W or less. In addition, long use of the electricappliance without running the engine may
run down the battery.Accessory socket
E00711602620
The accessory socket can be used while theignition switch or the operation mode is in
ON or ACC.
To use a plug-in type accessory, open the lid,
and insert the plug in the accessory socket.CAUTIONl Be sure to use a “plug-in” type accessory op-
erating at 12 V and at 120 W or less.
When using more than one socket at the same time, make sure that the electrical ac-
cessories are 12 V accessories and that the total power consumption does not exceed
120 W.
l Long use of the electric appliance without
running the engine may run down the bat- tery.
l When the accessory socket is not in use, be
sure to close the lid, because the socketmight become clogged by foreign materialand be short-circuited.Digital clock*

Battery
E01001203662
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.
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.
During cold weather
The capacity of the battery is reduced at low
temperatures. This is an inevitable result of its chemical and physical properties. This iswhy a very cold battery, particularly one that
is not fully charged, will only deliver a frac- tion of the starter current which is normallyavailable.
We recommend you to have the battery checked before the start of cold weather and,
if necessary, have it charged or replaced.
This does not only ensure reliable starting, but a battery which is kept fully charged alsohas a longer life.
Disconnection and connection
To disconnect the battery cable, stop the en-
gine, first disconnect the negative (-) terminal
and then the positive (+) terminal. When con- necting the battery, first connect the positive
(+) terminal and then the negative (-) termi-
nal.
NOTEl Open the terminal cover (A) before discon-
necting or connecting the positive (+) termi-
nal of the battery.
