NOTElIf the auxiliary battery is disconnected, the
operation mode of the power switch is mem-
orized. When a booster battery is connected
by jumper cables, the operation mode re- turns to the state it had before the auxiliary
battery ran down.
Pay due attention if you do not know the op- eration mode before the auxiliary battery
was fully discharged.
l If the auxiliary battery is fully discharged
with the select position in the “P” (PARK)
position, the select position cannot be changed to other position from the “P”
(PARK) position in some cases. In such a case, the front wheels have been locked.
Therefore, the vehicle cannot be moved.
1. Get the vehicles close enough so the
jumper cables can reach, but be sure the vehicles aren’t touching each other.
2. Turn off all lamps, heater and other elec-
trical loads.
3. Set the parking brake firmly on each ve-
hicle. Set the gear of the other vehicle in
“P” (PARK) position (with A/T) or in
“N” (Neutral) position (with M/T) and
stop the engine.
WARNINGl When connecting the jumper cable, stop
the engine in the other vehicle. Otherwise,
the cables or your clothes may be caught by the fan or drive belt and personal in-jury could result.
l The cooling fan turns on and off depend-
ing on the coolant temperature. Do not bring your hands close to the fan while
the engine is running or the Plug-in Hy- brid EV System is operating.
4. Open the bonnet, remove the fuse cover
of the main fuse block.
Refer to “Bonnet” on page 11-04 and
“Fuses: Engine compartment” on page
11-17.
5. Open the cover of the jumper cable ter-
minal in the main fuse block.
NOTEl You cannot rescue another vehicle’s dis-
charged battery by connecting jumper cables
while using this jumper cable terminal.
6. Connect one end of one jumper cable
to the jumper cable terminal (A) of your

With the Plug-in Hybrid EV system still
starting, raise the bonnet to ventilate the
engine compartment.
[If steam is coming from the engine
compartment]
Stop the Plug-in Hybrid EV system, and when the steam stops, raise the bonnet to
ventilate the engine compartment. Re- start the Plug-in Hybrid EV system.WARNINGl Do not open the bonnet while steam is
coming from the engine compartment. It could cause steam or hot water to spurt
out, causing burns. Hot water could spurt out even when there is no steam coming
out, and some parts will be very hot. Be
very careful when opening the bonnet.
l Be careful of hot steam, which could be
blowing off the reserve tank cap.
l Do not attempt to remove the radiator
cap while the engine is hot.
3. Confirm that the cooling fans (A) are
turning.
[If the cooling fans are turning]
After the high coolant temperature warn- ing has gone off, stop the Plug-in Hybrid
EV system.
[If the cooling fans are not turning]
Stop the Plug-in Hybrid EV system im-
mediately and contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point for
assistance.

CAUTIONlAs your vehicle is equipped with the rain
sensor, place the wiper switch lever in the“OFF” position to deactivate the rain sensor
before washing the vehicle. Otherwise, the wipers will operate in the presence of waterspray on the windscreen and may get dam-
aged as a result.
l Refrain from excessively using a car wash as
its brushes may scratch the paint surface,
causing it to lose its gloss. Scratches will be
especially visible on darker coloured vehi-
cles.
l Never spray or splash water on the electrical
components in the engine compartment. Do- ing so could have an adverse effect on the
Plug-in Hybrid EV system startability.
Exercise caution also when washing the un-
derbody; be careful not to spray water into the engine compartment.
l Some types of hot water washing equipment
apply high pressure and heat to the vehicle. They may cause heat distortion and damage
to the vehicle resin parts and may result in flooding of the vehicle interior.
Therefore:
• Maintain a distance of approx. 70 cm or
more between the vehicle body and the washing nozzle.
• When washing around the door glass,
hold the nozzle at a distance of more than
70 cm and at right angles to the glass sur- face.CAUTIONl After washing the vehicle, drive the vehicle
slowly while lightly depressing the brake
pedal several times in order to dry out the
brakes.
Leaving the brakes wet could result in re- duced braking performance. Also, there is a possibility that they could freeze up or be-
come inoperative due to rust, rendering the vehicle unable to move.
l When using an automatic car wash, pay at-
tention to the following items, referring to the operation manual or consulting a car
wash operator. If the following procedure is not followed, it could result in damage to
your vehicle.
• The outside mirrors are retracted.
• The wiper arms are secured in place with
tape.
• As your vehicle is equipped with roof
rails, consult a car wash operator before using a car wash.
• As your vehicle is equipped with the rain
sensor, place the wiper switch lever in the“OFF” position to deactivate the rain sen-
sor.
• Make sure that the charging lid and the
fuel lid are completely closed.
• If your vehicle is equipped with the Ultra-
sonic misacceleration Mitigation System,
turn the system off by using “FCM and
Ultrasonic misacceleration Mitigation System ON/OFF switch” on page 7-69.During cold weather
Salt and other chemicals spread on the roads
in some areas in winter can have a harmful effect on the vehicle body. You should there-
fore wash the vehicle as often as possible in accordance with our care-instructions. It is
recommended to have a preservative applied
and the underfloor protection checked before and after the cold weather season.
After washing your vehicle, wipe off all wa- terdrops from the rubber parts around the
doors to prevent the doors from freezing.
NOTEl To prevent freezing of the weatherstripping
on the doors, bonnet, etc., they should be treated with silicone spray.Waxing
E00901000919
Waxing the vehicle will help prevent the ad-
herence of dust and road chemicals to the paintwork. Apply a wax solution after wash- ing the vehicle, or at least once every three
months to assist displacing of water.
Do not wax your vehicle in direct sunlight.
You should wax after the surfaces have
cooled.
For information on how to use wax refer to the instruction manual of the wax.

E01000404462
To check and refill engine oil
The engine oil used has a significant effecton the engine’s performance, service life and
startability. Be sure to use oil of the recom- mended quality and appropriate viscosity.
All engines consume a certain amount of oil during normal operation. Therefore, it is im-portant to check the oil level at regular inter-
vals or before starting a long trip. 1. Park the vehicle on a horizontal surface.
2. Switch off the engine.
3. Wait a few minutes.
4. Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a
clean cloth.
5. Reinsert the dipstick as far as it goes.
6. Remove the dipstick and read the oil lev- el, which should always be within therange indicated.
7. If the oil level is below the specified
limit, remove the cap located on the cyl- inder head cover and add enough oil to
raise the level to within the specified
range. Do not overfill to avoid engine damage. Be sure to use the specified en-
gine oil and do not mix various types of
oil.
8. After adding oil, close the cap securely.
9. Confirm the oil level by repeating step 4
to 6.
