NOTElOnce the brake assist system is operational,
it maintains great braking force even if the
brake pedal is lightly released.
To stop its operation, completely remove
your foot from the brake pedal.
l When the brake assist system is in use while
driving, you may feel the brake pedal at-
tempt to resist, the pedal moves in small mo- tions in conjunction with the operation
noise, or the vehicle body and the steering wheel vibrate. This occurs when the brake
assist system is operating normally and does not indicate faulty operation. Continue to
firmly depress the brake pedal.
l When the anti-lock brake system warning
lamp is illuminated, the brake assist system is not functioning.Anti-lock brake system
(ABS) E00607101248
Environmental conditions can have an effect
on braking. During sudden braking when
there is snow, ice, oil, water etc. on the road
surface, a skid may occur. In this situation, steering control and braking effectiveness is
reduced and the stopping distance is in-
creased. The vehicle may also go into an un- controlled spin.
The ABS helps prevent the wheels from lock-
ing during braking, thus maintaining direc-
tional stability, ensuring controllability and
providing optimum braking force.
Driving hints
l Always maintain the same distance from
the vehicle in front of you as you would
for a vehicle not equipped with ABS.
Compared with vehicles not fitted with ABS, your vehicle may require a longer
stopping distance in the following cases: • Driving on gravel or snow-covered
roads.
• Driving with tyre chains installed.
• Driving on roads where the road sur-
face is pitted or has other differencesin surface height.
• Driving on bumpy roads or other poor
driving surfaces.
l In order to ensure that the ABS will op-
erate correctly in situations where tyre chains have been fitted, drive in the“4H”, “4HLc”, or “4LLc” position.
l Operation of ABS is not restricted to sit-
uations where brakes are applied sud- denly. This system may also operate to
prevent wheel lock when you are driving over manholes, steel road-work plates,
or the vehicle is driven over steps or lev-
el differences in the road, road markings,
or other surfaces which are difficult for the wheels to grip.
l When the ABS is activated, you may
feel the brake pedal pulsation and the vi- brations of the vehicle body and steering
wheel. You may also hear a characteris-
tic noise. At this time, you may feel as if
the pedal attempts to resist being de- pressed.
This is a normal result of the ABS oper- ation, and does not indicate a problem.
In this situation, to let the ABS work for you, just hold the brake pedal
down more firmly. Do not pump the brake. This will result in reduced
braking performance.
l When the engine starts and after starting
to drive, you might hear operation noise from the engine compartment or feel a shock from the brake pedal. This is nor-
mal. The ABS is performing self-check.
l The ABS will operate after the vehicle
has accelerated to a speed in excess ofapproximately 10 km/h (6 mph). It stops
operating when the vehicle decelerates
to a speed below about 5 km/h (3 mph).

Bleeding the fuel system(diesel-powered vehicles
only) E00800700149
The fuel system should be bled to remove air
as described below if the fuel supply is ex- hausted during travel.

Pump the hand pump (A) at the top of the fuel filter until the hand pump becomes stiff.
Then try again to start the engine.
If the engine does not start, repeat the process
above.Removal of water from the
fuel filter (diesel-powered
vehicles only) E00800800140
If the fuel filter indication lamp in the instru- ment panel illuminates during driving, it indi-
cates that water has accumulated in the fuel filter. If this occurs, remove the water as de-
scribed below. 1. Loosen the drain plug (A) at the bottom
of the fuel filter.2. Operate the hand pump (B) slowly 6 or 7
times in order to force the water out
through the drain plug.
3. Tighten the drain plug when water no
longer comes out.
4. Bleed the air in the fuel system. (Refer to “Bleeding the fuel system” onpage 8-06.)
5. Check to be sure that the fuel filter indi-
cation lamp illuminates when the igni-
tion switch is turned to “ON”, and that it goes off when the engine is started. If in
doubt, we recommend you to have your vehicle inspected.
CAUTIONl Do not smoke or have any other open flame
near the vehicle while bleeding the fuel sys- tem.

Anti-freeze
The engine coolant contains an ethylene gly-col anti-corrosion agent. The cylinder head
and water pump housing are cast aluminium
alloy, and periodic changing of the engine coolant is necessary to prevent corrosion of these parts.

Use “ MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENUINE
SUPER LONG LIFE COOLANT” or equiva- lent.
MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENUINE Coolant
has excellent protection against corrosion and rust formation of all metals including alumi-
nium and can avoid blockages in the radiator, heater, cylinder head, engine block, etc.

Because of the necessity of this anti-corro-
sion agent, the coolant must not be replaced with plain water even in summer. The re-
quired concentration of anti-freeze differs de-
pending on the expected ambient tempera- ture.

303540455060CAUTIONl Do not use alcohol or methanol anti-freeze
or any engine coolants mixed with alcohol
or methanol anti-freeze. The use of an im- proper anti-freeze can cause corrosion of the
aluminium components.
l For effective anti-corrosion and anti-freeze
performance, keep the anti-freeze concentra-tion within the range of 30 to 60 %.
Concentrations exceeding 60 % will result in
a reduction of both the anti-freeze and cool-
ing performance thus adversely affecting the
engine.
l Do not top up with water only.
During cold weather
The concentration should be checked before
the start of cold weather and anti-freeze add-
ed to the system if necessary to prevent dam-
age to engine and radiator due to freezing.
