Mitsubishi Motors Genuine 0W-20 Synthetic
Engine Oil is recommended for optimum fuel
economy and cold weather starting.
If Mitsubishi Motors Genuine 0W-20 Syn-
thetic Engine Oil is not available, 5W-20
grade oils displaying the ILSAC certification
can be used.
However, Mitsubishi Motors Genuine 0W-20
Synthetic Engine Oil should be used at the
next oil change to maintain optimum fuel
economy and cold weather starting.
The oil filter should be replaced at the time or
mileage specified in the “WARRANTY AND
MAINTENANCE MANUAL”.
Only use high quality replacement filters on
this vehicle. The manufacturer’s specifica-
tions 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 replacement filter.
Follow the installation instructions printed on
the filter.

The engine coolant reserve tank (A) lets you
quickly see when you need to add coolant.
When the engine is cold, the level of the cool-
ant in the reserve tank should be between the
FULL and LOW marks. The radiator usually
stays full so there is no reason to remove the
radiator cap (B) except when you check the
coolant freeze point or replace the antifreeze
coolant.
Mitsubishi Motors Genuine Coolant provides
excellent protection against corrosion and
rust formation on all metals, including alumi-
num, and prevents clogs in some parts of the
engine.
If you need to add coolant often, or if the
level in the reserve tank does not drop when
the engine cools, the cooling system should
be pressure-tested for leaks. Take your vehi-
cle to an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer
or a repair facility of your choice for testing.
