It is normal for an engi
ne to use oil. You may
need to add oil betwee
n the recommended oil
change intervals. Before starting the engine,check the engine oil level. Refill if necessary.
To check the oil level,
remove the dipstick,
wipe it off, and gently reinsert it all the way.Slowly pull the dipsti
ck straight out and
check the oil level by checking the upper sur- face of the dipstick. The oil level must not goabove the line on the dipstick. If the level does not reach the line which shows the minimum am
ount of oil required,
remove the oil filler cap on the engine valve cover, and fill to within the “Good” range.

NOTE
 If it is difficult to ve
rify the oil level, wipe
off the dipstick and
reinsert it. Wait a
moment and then recheck the oil level by checking the upper surface of the dipstick.2.4 L models
CAUTION Overfilling will cause
oil aeration and loss of
oil pressure, which coul
d damage the engine.
WA R N I N GUsed engine oil is poisonous, and can dam- age your skin. Prolonged and repeatedcontact may cause serious skin disorders, including dermatitis and cancer. Do not let used oil touch your skin and wash thor-oughly after working with it. Keep used oil out of
the reach of children.
NOTE
Engine oil consumption
is greatly influenced
by payload, engine speed, etc.3.0 L models

ters require that the
filter can withstand a
pressure of 256 psi (1.8 MPa). A MitsubishiMotors Genuine oil filter is the best replace- ment filter. Follow the installation instructions printed onthe filter.

The engine coolant reserve tank (A) lets youquickly see when you need to add coolant. When the engine is cold
, the level of the cool-
ant in the reserve tank should be between theFULL and LOW marks. The radiator usually stays full so there is no reason to remove the radiator cap (B) except when you check the coolant freeze point or replace the antifreeze coolant.
Mitsubishi Motors Genuine Coolant provides excellent protection
against corrosion and
rust formation on all me
tals, including alumi-
num, and prevents cl
ogs in some parts of
engine.If you need to add coolant often, or if the level in the reserve
tank does not drop when
the engine cools, the
cooling system should
be pressure-tested for leaks. Take your vehi- cle to an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of
your choice for testing.
Engine coolant To check the coolant level
*: Front of the vehicleTo add coolant Use “Mitsubishi Motors
Genuine Super Long
Life Coolant Premium” or equivalent
*.
* : similar high quality et
hylene glycol based
non-silicate, non-amine, non-nitrate and non-borate coolant with long life hybrid organic acid technologyCAUTION Do not use alcohol or
methanol antifreeze or
any engine coolants th
at contain them. Using
the wrong antifreeze can corrode aluminumparts.

The radiator cap must be
sealed tight to pre-
vent losing coolant, which may result in engine damage. Only use a Mitsubishi Motors Genuine Parts radiator cap, or anapproved equivalent.
 Do not overfill the reserve tank.  Your vehicle uses a special radiator cap that stays sealed and lets the coolant flow from the reserve tank back to the radiator when the engine cools down. If you needto change the cap, use the exact same kind.  Check the coolant freeze point in the radi- ator with the proper gauge, and only when it is safe. If you add antifreeze, the con- tents of the reserve tank must be protectedagainst freezing.  Keep the front of the radiator and con- denser clean. If the engine coolant temperature does not rise after the engine is warmed-up, take your vehicle to an au
thorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice to have the thermostat checked, and replaced if necessary.

The air cleaner filter
will get dirty and dusty
from use and not filter
properly. Replace it
with a new filter using the schedule in the“WARRANTY AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL”. 1. For 2.4 L models, remove the two clips (A), then remove the Air duct (B). 2. For 2.4 L models, while holding down the tab (C), pull out the connector (D).
 The required concentrati
on of anti-freeze dif-
fers depending on the
expected ambient tem-
perature.Above -31 °F (-35 °C): 50 % concentration of anti-freeze Below -31 °F (-35 °C): 60 % concentrationof anti-freeze You can check the concentration level with a gauge from an automotive supply store, oryour authorized Mitsubi
shi Motors dealer or
service station can check it for you. Do not use water to adjust the concentration of coolant. Do not top off the tank with plain water only. Water by itself boils at a lower temperature and does not stop rust or freezing. If thewater freezes, it will
damage your cooling
system. Do not use tapwater. It can cause corrosion and rust.
Radiator cap
CAUTION
WA R N I N G Wait for the engine to cool down before opening the radiator
cap. Otherwise hot
steam or boiling c
oolant could spray up
from the radiator and scald you.

The windshield and rear
window washer fluid
reservoir is in the engine compartment.
Check the washer fluid level at regular inter- vals and add washer fluid to reservoir if nec-essary. Open the reservoir ca
p and check the fluid
level with the dipstick. When freezing weather is anticipated, flush out the water in the reservoir by operating thepump. Fill the reservoir with windshield anti- freeze (not radiator
antifreeze), and operate
the system for a few se
conds to flush out the
residual water.
CAUTION Using the improper transaxle fluid may dam- age the transaxle.
