Engine overheating
8-4
For emergencies
8
If you drive your vehicle with a low battery
charge, after the engine has been started by
using jumper cables, the engine may misfire.
This can cause the anti-lock braking system
warning light to blink on and off. This is only
due to the low battery voltage. It is not a
problem with the brake system. If this hap-
pens, fully charge the battery and ensure the
charging system is operating properly.

When the engine is overheating, the informa-
tion screen in the multi-information display
will be interrupted and the engine coolant
temperature warning display will appear.
Also “
” will blink. If this happens:
1. Stop the vehicle in a safe place. Turn on
the hazard warning flashers.
2. With the engine still running, carefully
raise the engine hood to vent the engine
compartment.
3. Check that the cooling fans is running. If
the fan is not turning, stop the engine
immediately and contact an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facil-
ity of your choice for assistance.
4. If you see steam or spray coming from
under the hood, turn off the engine.
5. If you do not see steam or spray coming
from under the hood, leave the engine on
until the bar graph for the engine coolant
temperature warning display on the multi-
information display goes down. When it
is in the middle of the normal zone, you
can start driving again. If the bar graph
stays in the red zone, turn off the engine.
6. When you do not see any more steam or
spray, open the hood. Look for obvious
leaks, such as a split radiator hose. Be
careful as components will be hot. Any
leak source must be repaired.
7. If there is no obvious leak source, check
the coolant level in the reserve tank. If
there is none, or if it is too low, slowly add
coolant.
This vehicle is equipped with a mainte-
nance-free battery located in the trunk.
To assure proper battery installation and
venting of flammable gases, the battery
must be serviced and/or replaced by an
authorized Mitsubishi dealer only.
