The automatic transaxl
e should be maintained
and serviced by an authorized MitsubishiMotors dealer or a repair facility of your choice to obtain the
best performance and
longest life. It is impor
tant that the transaxle
fluid is kept at the correct level. The fluid level should be checked when the bar graph for the engine coolant temperature display on the multi-information displayshows the engine is warmed up and the fluid in the transaxle is heated to its normal work- ing temperature. Driving with the wrong fluidlevel will rapidly wear
out the transaxle and
destroy the fluid. 1. With the brake pedal fully depressed and the engine idling,
select each gear
momentarily, ending with the selectorlever in the “P” (PARK) position.
2. The fluid level should be at the HOT mark, but never above the HOT markwhen the engine is warmed up. Add or drain fluid to get to the correct level. 3. Make certain that the dipstick cap isinstalled properly to keep dirt and water out of the transaxle.
Use only “Mitsubishi Motors Genuine ATF- J3” transaxle fluid to
ensure optimum trans-
axle performance.
Mitsubishi Motors Corp
oration does not rec-
ommend the addition of
any fluid additives to
the transaxle.
