Brake fluid
10-8 Maintenance
10
To ensure proper operation of the washers at
low temperatures, use a fluid containing an
anti-freezing agent.
E01000802215
The fluid level must be between the “MAX”
and “MIN” marks on the reservoir.
The fluid level is monitored by a float. When
the fluid level falls below the “MIN” mark,
the brake warning lamp lights up.
The fluid level falls slightly with wear of the
brake pads, but this does not indicate any
abnormality.
The fluid in the master cylinder should be
checked when doing other work under the
bonnet. The brake system should also be
checked for leaks at the same time.
*: Front of the vehicle
Do not use any fluid other than washer fluid.
Also, do not use soapy water, glass cleaner,
and engine coolant.
Other liquids could cause streaking on the
vehicle’s painted surfaces, damage the
washer pump, or clog the nozzle, leading to
the washer fluid not spraying.
If dirt adheres to the inside of the washer
nozzle, washer fluid may not spray on the
windscreen correctly. The nozzle may be
damaged if you attempt to clean out the dirt
with a pin or other object. Please contact an
authorised MITSUBISHI MOTORS dealer.
Over-diluting the washer fluid in winter may
cause it to freeze onto the windscreen.
The washer fluid container serves the wind-
screen and rear window.
If the washer fluid reservoir is empty, you
can replenish with approximately 2 litres of
washer fluid.
