anti-freeze or any engine coolants mixed
with alcohol or methanol anti-freeze. The use of
an improper anti-freeze can cause corrosion
of the aluminium components.

By referring to the section on engine coolant,
select an appropriate concentration for
safe operating temperature within the range of 30 to
60%. Use special tool LLC changer (MB991871)
to refill the engine coolant. A convenient mixture is a
50% water and 50% antifreeze
solution (freezing point:
-31°C).
Recommended
antifreeze: MITSUBISHI MOTORS Genuine
Coolant or equivalent Quantity (including 0.65 L
in the radiator condenser
tank):
9.0 L <Short
wheelbase> 9.0 L <Long wheelbase
(vehicles without rear heater)> 10.5 L
<Long wheelbase (vehicles with rear
heater)>
note |
For how to use special tool
(MB991871), refer to its manufacturer’s
instructions.

12.Reinstall the radiator
cap. 13.Start the engine and let it warm up until
the thermostat opens. 14.After repeatedly revving
the engine up to 3,000 r/min several times, then
stop the engine. 15.Remove the radiator cap after
the engine has become cold, and pour in engine coolant
up to the brim. Reinstall the cap. 16.
