The automatic transaxle should be maintained
and serviced by an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer or a repair facility of your
choice to obtain the best performance and
longest life. It is important that the transaxle
fluid is kept at the correct level.
The fluid level should be checked when the
bar graph for the engine coolant temperature
display on the multi-information display
shows the engine is warmed up and the fluid
in the transaxle is heated to its normal work-
ing temperature. Driving with the wrong fluid
level will rapidly wear out the transaxle and
destroy the fluid.
NOTE
 Mitsubishi Motors Genuine Parts are recom-
mended when replacing the air cleaner filter.
 For 2.4 L models, make sure that the connec-
tor is properly reconnected.
