The concentration should be checked before
the start of cold weather and anti-freeze
added to the system if necessary to prevent
damage to engine and radiator due to freez-
ing.

Open the washer fluid reservoir cap and
check the level of washer fluid.
If the level is low, replenish the container
with washer fluid.
Full level is approximately 5 cm below from
the upper surface of the reservoir.
To ensure proper operation of the washers at
low temperatures, use a fluid containing an
anti-freezing agent.

The fluid level must be between the “MAX”
and “MIN” marks on the reservoir.
The fluid level is monitored by a float. When
the fluid level falls below the “MIN” mark,
the brake fluid warning lamp lights up.
The fluid level falls slightly with wear of the
brake pads, but this does not indicate any
abnormality.
If the fluid level falls markedly in a short
length of time, it indicates leaks from the
brake system.
If this occurs, have the vehicle checked by an
authorised MITSUBISHI MOTORS dealer.
Use brake fluid conforming to DOT3 or
DOT4 from a sealed container. The brake
fluid is hygroscopic. Too much moisture in
the brake fluid will adversely affect the brake
system, reducing the performance.
 Concentrations exceeding 60 % will result in
a reduction of both the anti-freeze and cool-
ing performance thus adversely affecting the
engine.

Do not top up with water only.
