To replace the oil filter

The oil filter should be replaced at the time or mileage speci-

fied in the “WARRANTY AND MAINTENANCE MAN-

UAL”.

Only use high quality replacement filters on this vehicle. The

manufacturer’s specifications for Genuine Mitsubishi oil filters

require that the filter can withstand a pressure of 256 psi

(1.8 MPa). A Genuine Mitsubishi oil filter is the best replace-

ment filter.

Follow the installation instructions printed on the filter.

Engine coolant

N00937800395

To check the coolant level

The coolant reserve system provides a quick visual method for

determining the coolant level. When the engine is cold, the

level of the coolant in the reserve tank should be between the

“F” (FULL) and “L” (LOW) marks. The radiator normally

remains completely full so there is no need to remove the radi-

ator cap except for checking the coolant freeze point or replac-

ing the antifreeze coolant.

CAUTION

● Take care not to bend the oil filter cover when

replacing the oil filter.
