NOTE●
Petrol-powered vehicles have
the knock control system so
that you can use unleaded pe
trol 91 RON as an emergent
measure in case unleaded petrol
95 RON or higher is not
available on journey, etc. In
such a case, you don’t need to
adjust the engine specially. In case of using unleaded petrol 91 RON, the engine per- formance level is reduced.
●
In petrol-powered vehicles,
repeatedly driving short dis-
tance at low speeds can cause deposits to form in the fuel system and engine, resulting in poor starting and pooracceleration. If these problems occur, you
are advised to add a deter-
gent additive to the gasoline
when you refuel the vehicle.
The additive will remove the deposits, thereby returning the engine to a normal condition. Be sure to use a genuine MITSUBISHI FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER. Using anunsuitable additive could make the engine malfunction. For details, please contact your MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
●
Poor quality petrol can cause
problems such as hard start-
ing, stalling, engine noise and hesitation. If your experi- ence these problems, try another brand and/or grade ofpetrol. If the check engine warning lamp flashes, have the system checked as soon as possible at a MITSUBISHI MOTORSAuthorized Service Point.

WARNING
!●
When handling fuel, comply
with the safety regula-
tions displayed by garages and filling stations.
●
Before removing the fuel cap, be sure to get rid of your body’s static electricity by touching a metalpart of the car or fuel pu
mp. Any static electricity on
your body could create a spark that ignites fuel vapor.
●
Perform the whole refuelling process (opening the fuel tank filler door, removi
ng the fuel cap, etc.) by
yourself. Do not let any other person come near thefuel tank filler. If you allowed a person to help you and that person was carryin
g static electricity, fuel
vapor could be ignited.
●
Do not move away from the fuel tank filler until refueling is finished. If you moved away and did something else (for exam
ple, cleaning your wind-
screen) partway through th
e refueling process, you
could pick up a fresh char
ge of static electricity.
●
If the tank cap must be replaced, use only a MIT- SUBISHI MOTORS original part.

The installation of accessories
, optional parts, should only
be carried out within the limits prescribed by law in your country, and in accordance wi
th the guidelines fitting
instructions and warnings contained within the documentsaccompanying the parts or accessories.
●
Improper installation of el
ectrical components may cause
an electrical fire if incorrectly
fitted. Please refer to Modi-
fication/alteration to the electri
cal or fuel systems section
within this owner’s manual.
●
Using a cellular phone or radio set inside the vehicle with- out an external antenna may

ference, which could lead to
unsafe vehicle operation.

Important points!Due to large number of accessory
and replacement parts of dif-
ferent manufactures available in the market, it is not possible,not only for MITSUBISHI MOTORS, but also for a MIT- SUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point, to check
whether the attachment or installa
tion of such parts affects the
overall safety of your MITSUBISHI-vehicle. Even when such parts are offici
ally authorized, for example by
a “general operators permit”
(an appraisal for the part) or
through the execution of the part
in an officially approved man-
ner of construction, or when a single operation permit follow- ing the attachment or installation of such parts, it cannot be deduced from that alone, that the driving safety of your vehiclehas not been affected. Consider also that there basically
exists no liability on the part
of the appraiser or the official.
Only in the case of parts (MIT-
SUBISHI MOTORS original repl
acement or exchange parts as
well as MITSUBISHI MOTORS
genuine accessories) that are
recommended and released by a MITSUBISHI MOTORSAuthorized Service Point and that
are attached or installed by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author
ized Service Point can you
assume, that optimal safety ha
s been provided. The same also
pertains to modifications of
MITSUBISHI vehicle with respect
to the production specifications. For your own safety, in such cases, you should only undert
ake modifications according to
the recommendations of a MI
TSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point.
