Your vehicle’s radio receives both AM andFM stations. The quality of your reception is affected bydistance, obstacles, and signal interference. This radio complies with Part 15 of Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules (for vehicles sold in U.S.A.). Operation issubject to the following conditions: The device may not cause harmful inter- ference. This device must accept any interference recieved, including interference that may cause undesirable operation.
FM signals do not follow the earth surface nor are they reflected by the upper atmo- sphere. For this reason, FM broadcasts cannot be received over long distances. AM signalsfollow the earth’s surface and are reflected by the upper atmosphere. For this reason, AM broadcasts can be received over longer dis-tances.
NOTE
While the “ ” indicator light is on, the air conditioning compressor will run automati- cally. The outside air position will also be selected and the blower speed will be set atthe maximum automatically. If the “ ” indicator light is on, you cannot turn the air conditioning off or select therecirculation position. Th
is prevents the win-
dows from fogging up. To defog quickly, direct
the air flow from the
side vents toward the door windows. When defrosting, do not set the temperature to the maximum cool position. This will blow cool air on the window glass and fog itup.
Air purifier
NOTE
Operation in certain conditions such as driv- ing on a dusty road and frequent use of the air conditioning can lead to reduction of ser- vice life of the filter.
When you feel that the
air flow is lower than normal or when thewindshield or windows start to fog up easily, replace the air filter. Contact your authorized Mitsubishi Motorsdealer or a repair facility of your choice for assistance.

The fluid level falls slightly with wear of the brake pads, but this does not indicate anyabnormality. If the fluid level falls markedly in a short length of time, it indicates leaks from thebrake system. If this occurs, have the vehicle checked by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or arepair facility of your choice. Use the recommended brake fluid conform- ing to DOT 3 or DOT 4. The reservoir capmust be tightly sealed to keep dirt and water out.
N00939101979
The condition of the battery is very important for quick starting and to keep the vehicle’selectrical system working properly. Check the battery regularly. If battery performance is suspect, have the battery and charging system tested by an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice. The electrolyte level must be between the limits shown on the outside of the battery. Fill it with distilled water as needed. The inside ofthe battery is divided into several compart- ments. Take the cap off of each compartment and fill to the mark.Do not fill above the top line because a spill during driving could cause damage.
Fluid type
WA R N I N G Take care in handling brake fluid as it is harmful to the eyes, may irritate your skin and will damage painted surfaces. Wipe up spills immediately. If brake fluid gets on your hands or in your eyes, flush imme-diately with clean water. Follow up with a doctor as necessary.CAUTION Do not let any petroleum-based fluid touch, mix with, or get into the brake fluid. This will damage the seals. Use only the listed brake fluid. Different brands of brake fluid have different addi- tives, and these can cause a chemical reac-tion. Do not mix brands of brake fluid. Keep the reservoir tank cap closed to keep the brake fluid from evaporating.
Battery
NOTE
After replacing the battery, the electronic control system data for the automatic trans- axle, etc., will be erased.As a result, shifting may be rough. Shifting will become smoother after several changes in speed.

Your vehicle is equipped with an emission-control system that meets all the requirementsof the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and Environment Canada. The emission-con- trol system is made of: a positive crankcase ventilation system an evaporative emission-control system an exhaust emission-control system
To be sure the emission-control system works properly, have your vehicle inspected and maintained by an authorized MitsubishiMotors dealer or a repair facility of your choice. This should be done at the time or mileage specified in the “WARRANTY ANDMAINTENANCE MANUAL”. These, and all the other “general” mainte- nance services listed in this manual, need tobe performed to keep your vehicle running properly and reliably. You should also have an inspection and ser-vice any time you suspect a malfunction.
N00940900231
Spark plugs must fire properly to ensureproper engine performance and emission-control. Do not reuse spark plugs by cleaning or regapping. Spark plugs should be replaced atthe mileage specified in the “WARRANTY AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL”.
CAUTION If the rear wiper is not stopped within the mark (A), the wiper arm will contact the roofspoiler and you will not be able to lift the wiper arm. If you forcefully try to lift the wiper arm, the wiper arm and roof spoilercould be damaged or the painted surfaces could be scratched.
During cold weather
Emission-control system maintenance
NOTE
To meet government regulations and pro- mote cleaner air, your vehicle is equipped with an onboard diagnostic system (OBD). The engine electronic control module that controls OBD functions stores various data(especially about the exhaust emissions). This data will be erased if the battery cable is disconnected, which could make a rapiddiagnosis difficult. Do not disconnect the battery cable when the engine malfunction indicator (“SERVICE ENGINE SOON” or“Check engine light”) is ON.
Spark plugs
NOTE
Use the recommended or equivalent spark plugs listed under “Engine specifications” on page 11-6. Use of other plugs could cause engine damage, loss of performance or radionoise.
