BATTERY

The condition of the battery is very important for quick
starting and to keep the vehicle’s electrical system work-
ing properly. Check the battery regularly.

If battery performance is suspect, have the battery and
charging system tested by an authorized Mitsubishi
dealer.

NOTE
(1) After replacing the battery, the electronic control

system data for the automatic transaxle, etc., will be
erased. As a result, shifting may be rough.

Shifting will become smoother after several changes
in speed.

(2) Memory data for settings made by the user may be

erased when the battery is replaced. If this happens,
establish the settings again using the relevant proce-
dures.

Checking battery electrolyte level
Use the following procedure to check the battery electro-
lyte level.

Open the lid on the battery cover (if so equipped).

NOTE:

Be sure to close the battery cover after checking

the battery fluid level and after replacing the battery.
