Fluid type
Use brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or
DOT 4. The reservoir cap must be tightly
sealed to keep dirt and water out.
CAUTION
Do not let any petroleum-based fluid touch,
mix with, or get into the brake fluid. This
will damage the seals.
Be careful when handling brake fluid. It can
damage painted surfaces.
Use only the listed brake fluid. Different
brands of brake fluid have different addi-
tives, and these can cause a chemical reac-
tion. Do not mix brands of brake fluid.
Keep the reservoir tank cap closed to keep
the brake fluid from evaporating.
Power steering fluid
To check the fluid level
Check the fluid level in the reservoir while
the engine is idling.
Check to make certain that the power steering
fluid level is always between the "MAX" and
"MIN" level markings on the fluid reservoir
and refill the fluid, if necessary.

properties and is why a very cold battery,
especially one with a low charge, will have a
hard time starting your vehicle.
It is recommended that you have your battery
and charging system checked by an autho-
rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer before the
