Taking regular care of your vehicle will pre-
serve its value and appearance as long as pos-
sible.
You can do some of the maintenance work
yourself, and the rest should only be per-
formed by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer or a repair facility of your choice.
If you discover a malfunction or other prob-
lem, have it corrected by an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility
of your choice.
This section describes the maintenance
inspections that you can do yourself, if you so
desire. Follow the instructions and precau-
tions for each procedure.
Have you purchased the Mitsubishi Motors
Diamond Care Protection Plan? The Plan
supplements your new vehicle warranties.
See your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer
for details.

The catalytic converter requires you to use
unleaded fuel only. Leaded gasoline will
destroy the emission-control effectiveness of
the converter.
Normally, the catalytic converter does not
require maintenance. However, it is important
to keep the engine properly tuned for the con-
verter to continue to work properly.
Service precautions
WARNING
When checking or servicing the inside of
the engine compartment, be sure the
engine is stopped and has had a chance to
cool down.
If you need to work in the engine compart-
ment with the engine running, be espe-
cially careful that your clothing, hair, etc.
does not get caught in the fan, drive belts,
or other moving parts.
After performing the maintenance work,
make sure that no tools or cloths are left
behind in the engine compartment.
If they are left behind, a fire or damage to
the vehicle may occur.
The fan can turn on automatically even if
the engine is not running. Turn the igni-
tion switch to the “OFF” position or put
the operation mode in OFF to be safe
while you work in the engine compart-
ment.
Do not smoke or allow open flames around
fuel or the battery. The fumes are flamma-
ble.
Be extremely careful when working
around the battery. It contains poisonous
and corrosive sulfuric acid.
Do not get under your vehicle while it is on
a jack.
Always use properly rated automotive
jack stands.
Handling your vehicle’s parts and materi-
als in the wrong way can injure you. Ask
an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer
or a repair facility of your choice if you
have questions.
