Display mode
ED92G-I
For petrol-powered vehicles with MITSUB-
ISHI genuine audio, driving range and aver-
age speed can be displayed besides
average fuel consumption by pushing the
“DISP”button in the audio.
When the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON”position, the display shows the 3
items sequentially (Average fuel consump-
tion→Driving range→Average speed)
and returns to the original display that is
shown before the ignition switch was last
turned to the“OFF”position.
NOTE
If the DISP button is pressed while the dis-
play is scrolling through the sequence men-
tioned above, the display stops scrolling
and shows the item that was shown before
the ignition switch was last turned to the
“OFF”position.

Average fuel consumption
(Petrol-powered vehicles only)
ED92I-Ca
This value shows the average fuel con-
sumption (in L/100 km or mpg) since the
display was reset. If you reset the display
at the time when you want to start the mea-
surements, average fuel consumption from
that point of time can be displayed.
To reset the display
[Vehicles without MITSUBISHI genuine
audio]
Push the button (A) for more than 2 sec-
onds.
D92G002A
Type 1[Vehicles with MITSUBISHI genuine audio]
Push the“DISP”button for more than 2
seconds.
NOTE
(1) When the ignition switch is turned on,
the average fuel consumption which
was being displayed when the igni-
tion switch was previously turned off will
be displayed once again.
(2) Average fuel consumption varies
according to the conditions under which
a vehicle is travelling (road condi-
tions, the manner in which the vehicle
is being driven, etc.).
Observe this display for reference
because the fuel consumption dis-
play may differ from the actual fuel con-
sumption.

Trip computer information
(For petrol-powered vehicles only)
ED92F-G
The following information will be dis-
played from the trip computer system.
1. Average speed
2. Average fuel consumption
3. Driving rangeNOTE
(1) This display is not show for
diesel-powered vehicles.
(2) If this display is shown for
diesel-powered vehicles, there may be
a setting error, or the display may show
the wrong information. Be sure to reset
the car type.

Be sure to set the car type again.
→Refer to“Resetting the car type”on
page 4−64.
1. Average speed
2. Average fuel consumption
These values show the average speed (in
km/h or mph) and the average fuel con-
sumption (in L/100 km, or km/L) since the
display was reset. If you reset the display
at the time when you want to start the mea-
surements, average fuel consumption from
that point of time can be displayed.
To reset the display push the“RESET”
function button.NOTE
(1) When the system cannot provide a defi-
nite value for the average speed, this
display shows“
km”.
(2) Average fuel consumption varies
according to the conditions under which
a vehicle is travelling (road condi-
tions, the manner in which the vehicle
is being driven, etc.).
Observe this display for reference
because the fuel consumption dis-
play may differ from the actual fuel con-
sumption.
3. Driving range
This value shows the distance (in km or
miles) that can be driven on the fuel
remaining in the fuel tank.
When the driving range mode is dis-
played and the driving range drops below
50km/h (30miles), the display will blink
orange.

Catalytic converter
EC18A-W
For ordinary use, there are no particular
precautions except that of using unleaded
petrol.
The exhaust gas scavenging device with
catalytic converter is extremely efficient for
the reduction of noxious gases. The cata-
lytic converter is installed in the exhaust
system.
It is important to keep the engine prop-
erly tuned to ensure proper catalyst opera-
tion and prevent possible catalyst damage.
CAUTION
Damage to the catalytic converter
can result if your vehicle is not kept
in proper operating condition. In the
event of an engine malfunction par-
ticularly involving engine misfire or
other apparent loss of performance
have your vehicle serviced promptly.
Continued operation of your vehicle
with a severe overheated condition
may result in possible damage to the
converter and vehicle.
WARNING
(1) As with any vehicle, do not park
or operate this vehicle in areas
where combustible materials
such as dry grass or leaves can
come in contact with a hot
exhaust since a fire could occur.
(2) Undercoating paint should not
be applied to the catalytic con-
verter.The catalytic converter itself gets hot
quickly, and may be damaged if over-
heated. The following points should be
noted in order to prevent the ignition of
unburned petrol within the catalytic con-
verter.
(1) In case of the petrol-powered vehicles,
use UNLEADED PETROL ONLY of the
type of recommended in“Fuel
selection”on page 5-3.
(2) Do not drive with an extremely low fuel
level; running out of fuel could cause
damage to the catalytic converter.
(3) Do not switch OFF the ignition switch
while driving.
(4) Do not try to start the engine by push-
ing the vehicle. If the battery is weak or
discharged, use another battery to start
the engine.
(5) In case of the petrol-powered vehicles,
do not idle the engine with any spark
plug wires disconnected or removed
such as performing diagnostic tests.
(6) Do not idle the engine for prolonged
periods during very rough idle or mal-
functioning operating conditions.
(7) Do not race the engine when turning off
the ignition switch. This will prevent the
catalytic converter from being dam-
aged due to unburnt fuel.

NOTE
The values under Item 10 are applicable to
unladen vehicles. These values can also be
varied depending on the tyre size, optional
equipment and suspension conditions.
Operating hints(1) Do not let the clutch slip (vehicles with
a manual transmission only) and do not
increase the engine speed more than
necessary when starting.
(2) Be sure that the driving speed does not
exceed the 100 km/h (62 mph) for
trailer operation.
It is also recommended that you obey
the local regulations in case driving
speed with a trailer is limited to less
than 100 km/h (62 mph).
(3) To prevent shocks from the overrun
brake, depress the brake pedal lightly
at first and then more strongly.
(4) To make full use of engine braking,
change to a lower gear before
descending a slope.
(5) The body, brakes, clutch, and chas-
sis will be under additional strain when
towing a trailer.
(6) The heavier weight and higher rolling
and air resistance will increase fuel
consumption.Additional precautions for vehicles
equipped with an automatic transmis-
sion
The 2nd gear (in sports mode) is recom-
mended on slopes or at low speed. Use the
1st gear (in sports mode) in mountainous
areas in order to make better use of engine
braking and to assist the brake system.
However, be sure that the speed does not
exceed the maximum speed limit for the
selected gear.

Notes regarding diesel fuel
EP02A-F
Due to paraffin separation, the fluidity of diesel fuel decreases
remarkably as the temperature decreases. For this reason, die-
sel fuel is divided into two types,“summer”and“winter”.
The effective limit of“winter”diesel fuel during cold-weather peri-
ods is rated at -15°C. In extremely cold weather, it is recom-
mended that regular petrol (not premium or“high-test”petrol) be
mixed with the diesel fuel up to a maximum concentration of 30%.
In order to minimize the reduction in performance, be sure to mix
in only as much regular petrol as is absolutely necessary.
Temperature“Summer”diesel fuel“Winter”diesel fuel
0°C—-15°C max. 30%—
-15°C—-25°C—max. 30%
When travelling in a foreign country, be sure to obtain informa-
tion regarding the diesel fuel in general use in that locality.
Use of a“flow improver”, which can be obtained at most petrol
stations, is recommended.
CAUTION
(1) Because the fuel is highly flammable, mix the diesel
fuel and regular petrol only inside the vehicle’s fuel
tank.
(2) If possible, put the regular petrol into the fuel tank
before putting in the diesel fuel.Specifications
