2020 MITSUBISHI L200 Owner's Manual (in English)

CAUT,ONzChoose a clear straight stretch of road where
you can pull off and still be seen while you
are fitting the snow traction device (Tyre chains).
z Do not fit snow traction device (Tyre chains)
before you need them. This will wear out your tyres and the road surface.
z After driving around 100-300 metres, stop
and retighten the snow traction device (Tyre
chains).
z Drive cautiously and do not exceed 50 km/h
(30 mph). Remember that preventing acci-
dents is not the purpose of snow traction de- vice (tyre chains).
z When snow traction device (Tyre chains) are
installed, take care that they do not damage the disc wheel or body.
z An aluminium wheel can be damaged by a
snow traction device (Tyre chains) while
driving. When fitting a snow traction device (Tyre chains) on an aluminium wheel, take
care that any part of the snow traction device
(Tyre chains) and fitting cannot be brought into contact with the wheel.
z When installing or removing a snow traction
device (Tyre chains), take care that hands and other parts of your body are not injured
by the sharp edges of the vehicle body.
z Install the snow traction device (Tyre chains)
only on the rear tyres and tighten them as
tightly as possible with the ends securely fastened.NOTEz The laws and regulations concerning the use
of snow traction device (tyre chains) vary. Always follow local laws and regulations.
In most countries, it is prohibited by the law to use of snow traction device (tyre chains)
on roads without snow.Wiper blade rubber
replacement
1. Lift the wiper arm off the windscreen. 2. Pull the wiper blade until its stopper (A)
disengages from the hook (B). Then, pull the wiper blade further to remove it.
NOTEz Do not allow the wiper arm to fall onto the
windscreen; it could damage the glass.3. Attach the retainers (C) to a new wiper
blade.
Refer to the illustration to ensure that the
retainers are correctly aligned as you at- tach them.
4. Insert the wiper blade into the arm, start-
ing with the opposite end of the blade from the stopper. Make sure the hook
(B) is fitted correctly in the grooves in the blade.
NOTEz If retainers are not supplied with the new
wiper blade, use the retainers from the old
blade.

Fuel, engine coolant, oil and ex-
haust gas leakage
Look under the body of your vehicle to check for fuel, engine coolant, oil and exhaust gas
leaks.
:ARN,NGz If you see a suspicious fuel leak or if you
smell fuel, do not operate the vehicle; call
your MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point for assistance.Exterior and interior lamp op-
eration
Operate the combination lamp switch to
check that all lamps are functioning properly.
If the lamps do not illuminate, the probable cause is a blown fuse or defective lamp bulb.
Check the fuses first. If there is no blown
fuses, check the lamp bulbs.
For information regarding the inspection and
replacement of the fuses and the bulbs, refer
to “Fuses” on page 10-18 and “Replacement
of lamp bulbs” on page 10-24.
If the fuses and bulbs are all OK, we recom-
mend you to have your vehicle checked and repaired.
Meter, gauge and indicator/ warning lamps operation
Start the engine to check the operation of all
instruments, gauges, and indication and warning lamps.
If there is anything wrong, we recommend
you to have your vehicle inspected.
Hinges and latches lubrication
Check all latches and hinges, and, if necessa- ry, have them lubricated.
Fusible links
The fusible links will melt to prevent a fire if
a large current attempts to flow through cer- tain electrical systems.
In case of a melted fusible link, we recom- mend you to have your vehicle inspected.
For the fusible links, please refer to “Passen-
ger compartment fuse location table” on page
10-20 and “Engine compartment fuse loca-
tion table” on page 10-21.:ARN,NGz Fusible links must not be replaced by any
other device. Failing to fit the correct fusi- ble link may result in fire in the vehicle,
property destruction and serious or fatal injuries at any time.FusesFuse block location
To prevent damage to the electrical system
due to short-circuiting or overloading, each individual circuit is provided with a fuse.There are fuse blocks in the passenger com- partment and in the engine compartment.

2- Remove the cover.
Fuse load capacity
The fuse capacity and the names of electrical systems protected by the fuses are indicated
on the inside of the fuse lid (LHD vehicles),
the back side of the glove box (RHD vehi- cles) and inside of the fuse block cover (in- side of the engine compartment).
NOTEz Spare fuses are provided in the fuse block of
the engine compartment. Always use a fuse
of the same capacity for replacement.Passenger compartment fuse lo-

Fuse replacement
1.Before replacing a fuse, always turn off
the electrical circuit concerned and place
the ignition switch in the “LOCK” posi- tion or put the operation mode in OFF.
2. Remove the fuse puller (A) from the in-
side of the fuse box in the engine com-
partment.
3. Referring to the fuse load capacity table,
check the fuse pertaining to the problem.
B- Fuse is OK
C- Blown fuse
NOTEz If any system does not function but the fuse
corresponding to that system is normal, theremay be a fault in the system elsewhere. We
recommend you to have your vehicle checked.
4. Insert a new fuse of the same capacity
by using the fuse puller into the same
place at the fuse block.
CAUT,ONz If the newly inserted fuse blows again after a
short time, we recommend you to have the electrical system checked to find the causeand rectify it.
z Never use a fuse with a larger capacity than
specified or a substitute (such as a cable or foil). Doing so could cause the circuit wires
to overheat and create a fire.

Replacement of lamp bulbs
Before replacing a bulb, ensure the lamp is off. Do not touch the glass part of the newbulb with your bare fingers; the skin oil left
on the glass will evaporate when the bulb gets hot and the vapour will condense on the
reflector and dim the surface.CAUT,ONz Bulbs are extremely hot immediately after
being turned off. When replacing a bulb, wait for it to cool sufficiently before touching it. You couldotherwise be burnt.
z Handle halogen lamp bulbs with care. The
gas inside halogen lamp bulbs is highly pres-
surized, so dropping, knocking, or scratching
a halogen lamp bulb can cause it to shatter.CAUT,ONz Never hold the halogen lamp bulb with a
bare hand, dirty glove, etc.
The oil from your hand could cause the bulb to break the next time the headlamps are op-
erated.
If the glass surface is dirty, it must be cleaned with alcohol, paint thinner, etc., and
refit it after drying it thoroughly.
z Do not install commercially available LED-
type bulbs.
Commercially available LED-type bulbs
could adversely affect the operation of the vehicle, such as by preventing the lamps and
other vehicle equipment from operating properly.
NOTEz If you are unsure of how to carry out the
work as required, we recommend you to consult a specialist.
z Be careful not to scratch the vehicle body
when removing a lamp and lens.NOTEz When it rains or when the vehicle has been
washed, the inside of the lens sometimes be-
comes foggy. This is the same phenomenon as when window glass mists up on a humid
day, and does not indicate a functional prob- lem. When the lamp is switched on, the heat will remove the fog. However, if water gath-
ers inside the lamp, we recommend you to have the lamp checked.Bulb location and capacityCAUT,ONz When replacing a bulb, be sure to use a new
bulb of the same type, wattage and colour. If you install a different bulb, the bulb could malfunction or fail to come on and could
lead to a vehicle fire.
