For Cold And Snowy Weather; Fusible Links; Fuses - Mitsubishi ASX 2019 Owner's Manual

Meter, gauge and indicator/
warning lamps operation
Start the engine and check the operation of
all instruments, gauges and indication and
warning lamps.
If there is anything wrong, we recommend
you to have your vehicle inspected.
Hinges and latches lubrication
Check all latches and hinges, and, if necessa-
ry, have them lubricated.

For cold and snowy weather

Ventilation slots
The ventilation slots in front of the wind-
screen should be kept clear of leaves or
brushed clear after heavy snowfall, so that
the operation of the heating and ventilation
systems will not be impaired.
Weatherstripping
To prevent freezing of the weatherstripping
on the doors, bonnet, etc., they should be
treated with silicone grease.
Additional equipment
It is a good idea to carry a shovel or a short-
handled spade in the vehicle during the win-
ter so that you can clear away snow if you get
stranded. A small hand-brush for sweeping
snow off the vehicle and a plastic scraper for
the windscreen and rear window are also use-
ful.

Fusible links

The fusible links will melt to prevent a fire if
a large current attempts to flow through cer-
tain electrical systems.
In case of a melted fusible link, we recom-
mend you to have your vehicle inspected.
For the fusible links, please refer to "Fuse
load capacity" on page 10-19.
WARNING
l Fusible links must not be replaced by any
other device. Failing to fit the correct fusi-
ble link may result in fire in the vehicle,
property destruction and serious or fatal
injuries at any time.
