Engine overheating
E00800602722
If the high coolant temperature warning lamp illu-
minates during the engine is running, the engine
may be overheating.
If this occurs, take the following corrective meas-
ures:
1. Stop the vehicle in a safe place.
2. Check whether steam is coming from the en-
gine compartment.
[If steam does not come from the engine com-
partment]
With the engine still running, raise the bon-
net to ventilate the engine compartment.
NOTE
l
For vehicles equipped with the Auto Stop &
Go (AS&G) system, press the “Auto Stop &
Go (AS&G) OFF” switch to deactivate the
Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) system before stop-
ping the vehicle.
Refer to “To deactivate” on page 4-18.
[If steam is coming from the engine compart-
ment]
Stop the engine, and when the steam stops,
raise the bonnet to ventilate the engine com-
partment. Restart the engine.
WARNING
l
Do not open the bonnet while steam is com-
ing from the engine compartment. It
could cause steam or hot water to spurt
out, causing burns. Hot water could spurt
out even when there is no steam coming
out, and some parts will be very hot. Be
very careful when opening the bonnet.
l
Be careful of hot steam, which could be
blowing off the reserve tank cap.
l
Do not attempt to remove the radiator
cap while the engine is hot.
3. Confirm that the cooling fan (A) is turning.
[If the cooling fan is turning]
After the high coolant temperature warning
lamp has gone off, stop the engine.
[If the cooling fan is not turning]
Stop the engine immediately and contact a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point for assistance.

Be careful not to get your hands or
clothes caught in the cooling fan.
4. Check the coolant level in the reserve tank (B).

Low
5. Add coolant to the radiator and/or reserve
tank if necessary. (Refer to the “Mainte-
nance” section.)
WARNING
l
Make sure that the engine has cooled
down before removing the radiator cap
(C), because hot steam or boiling water
otherwise will gush from the filler port
and may scald you.
