(2) If there is a leak from a crack in the battery case, replace the battery. (3) Clean the battery terminals with a wire brush, and replace any parts that are dam- aged. CHARGING 1. When charging a battery while stil installed in the vehicle, disconnect the battery cables to prevent damage to electrical parts |= Mitsubishi Motors Corporation Fab. 1981 pacity. 3. When quick charging due to lack of time, etc., the charging current should never exceed the battery capacity as indicated in ampered 4, Determining it charging is completed (1) If the specific gravity of the battery fluid reaches 1.250-1.290 and remains constant for at least one hour. If the voltage of each cell reaches 25-2.8V and remains constant for at least one houe. Caution Take care since the battery fl rise during charging. Keep all sources of fire away while charging because there is danger of explosion. Take care not to do anything that could generate sparks while charging. When charging is completed, replace the battery caps, pour clean water over the battery to remove any sulfuric acid and dry.

Wave reception is not possible in the shadow of obstructions such as buildings or mountains. 1 The signal becomes weak as the distance from the station's transmission antenna increases. Although this may vary according to the signal strength of the transmitting station and intervening geographical formations or buildings, the area of Qood reception is approx. 20-25 km (12-16 miles) for stereo reception. and 30-40 km (19-25 miles) for monaural reception 2. The signal becomes weak when an area of 15 mitaublht Motors Corporation shadow from the transmitting antenna (places. ‘where there are obstructions such as mountains or buildings between the antenna and the car), FM Broadcast Good Reception Areas oe and noise will appear. lf a direct signal hits the antenna at the same time as a signal reflected by obstructions such as mountains or buildings, interference of the two signals will generate noise. During traveling, noise will appear each time the vehicle's antenna passes through this kind of obstructed area. The strength and interval of the noise varies according to the signal strength and the conditions of deflec- tion. Since FM stereo transmission and reception has. a weaker field than monaural, it is often accom- panied by a hissing noise FM Signal Characteristics and Signal Interference Mant Q ql] eS, ‘enoeesAUDIO SYSTEM - Troubleshooting 54-35 A-3 | Mixed with noise, only at night (AM).

Since failure due this ult in misdiagnosis due to inability to identify the noise source, this operation must be performed. 3. Noise prevention should be performed by suppressing strong sources of noise step by step. NOTE Capacitor The capacitor does not pass D.C. current, but as the number of waves increases when it passes A.C, current, impedance (resistance © Maubiht Motors Corportion Fab. 1901, against A.C.) decreases, and current flow is facilitated. A noise suppressing condenser which takes advantage of this property is in- serted between the power line for the noise source and the earth, This suppressed noise by earthing the noise component (A.C. or pulse signal) to the body of the vehicle. 2. Coil The coil passes D.C. current, but impedance rises as the number of waves increases relative to the A.C. current. A noise suppressing coil which takes advantage of this property is in- serted into the power line for the noise source, and works by preventing the noise component from flowing or radiating out of the line.AUDIO SYSTEM ~ Troubleshooting 54-39 NOISE SUPPERSSOR MOUNTING LOCATION 186000354-40 AUDIO SYSTEM - Troubleshooting A-7 Some noise appears when there is vibration or shocks duringt traveling. —— No ———- _ - Ate connectors properly connected? » >| Ensure proper connection Ye ns ae . ae / Does noise appear when the radio switch is No noise: (tumea!on wri the vehicle is stopped and the )——— Body state electric from the shock \\ radio is struck while tuned away from a station? / absorber rubber bushings used to \" _ prevent vibration, ines, etc. Ocbus because of separation from the earth, causing a buzzing noise Since no measures can be taken on the radio side, steps should be taken) to discharge the static electricity of the vehicle body. ww — Yes Is the radio correctly earthed? \\ls the mounting screw tightened securely?)

(3) Draw out the antenna pole to the maximum extension. NOTE If there is a bend in the motor end of the rack cable, remove the bend. (4) Insert the rack cable into the motor assembly with the rack cable teeth facing the engine compartment side. (5) Turn the rack cable teeth towards the front of the vehicle (90° to right) so that the rack cable meshes with the motor gear. (6) If the rack cable pulls out with no resistance when it is lightly pulled, then the cable is not meshed with the motor gear, so check that there are no bends in the end of the rack cable, and then repeat steps (3) and (4) above (7) Set the antenna pole vertically and tum the radio switch OFF to wind up the rack cable. Insert the antenne to the motor antenna side to align it with the wound-up rack cable. (8) After tightening the ring nut, check the movement of the antenna by turing the radio switch ON and OFF.REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER — Rear Window Defogger 54-60 ‘Normal characteristic curve Voltage iv.
