Clutch fluid*
E01001000281
To check the fluid level
The
clutch fluid in the master cylinder should be
checked when performing other underhood service.
In addition, the system should be checked for leak-
age at the same time.
Check to make certain that the clutch fluid level is
always between the “MAX” and “MIN” level mark-
ings on the fluid reservoir.
A rapid fluid loss indicates a leak in the clutch sys-
tem which should be inspected by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point or another spe-
cialist and repaired immediately.

Brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4 should
be used.
The reservoir cap must be fully tightened to avoid
contamination from foreign matter or moisture.
DO NOT ALLOW PETROLEUM-BASED FLUID
TO CONTACT, MIX WITH, OR OTHERWISE
CONTAMINATE THE BRAKE FLUID. SEAL
DAMAGE WILL RESULT.
