CAUTION
l
Since the fuel system may be under pres-
sure, remove the fuel cap slowly. This re-
lieves any pressure or vacuum that might
have built up in the fuel tank. If you hear
a hissing sound from the cap, wait until it
stops before removing the cap. Other-
wise, fuel may spray out, injuring you or
others.
5. Insert
the gun in the tank port as far as it goes. CAUTION
l
Do not tilt the gun.
6. When
the gun stops automatically, do not fill with fuel any more.
7. Close the fuel cap. To close, turn the fuel cap slowly clockwise
until you hear clicking sounds, then gently
push the fuel tank filler door closed. Installation of accessories
E00200300963
We

recommend you to consult a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
l The installation of accessories, optional
parts, etc., should only be carried out within
the limits prescribed by law in your country,
and in accordance with the guidelines and
warnings contained within the documents ac-
companying this vehicle.
l Installing electric components incorrectly
could lead to a fire. Please refer to Modifica-
tion/alteration to the electrical or fuel sys-
tems section within this owner’s manual.
l Using a cellular phone or radio set inside the
vehicle without an external antenna may
cause electrical system interference, which
could lead to unsafe vehicle operation.
l Tyres and wheels which do not meet specifi-
cations must not be used.
Refer to the “Specifications” section for in-
formation regarding wheel and tyre sizes.
Important points!
Due to large number of accessory and replacement
parts of different manufactures available in the mar-
ket, it is not possible, not only for MITSUBISHI
MOTORS, but also for a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point, to check whether the at-
tachment or installation of such parts affects the
overall safety of your MITSUBISHI-vehicle.
Even when such parts are officially authorized, for
example
by a “general operators permit” (an ap-
praisal for the part) or through the execution of the
part in an officially approved manner of construc-
tion, or when a single operation permit following
the attachment or installation of such parts, it can-
not be deduced from that alone, that the driving safe-
ty of your vehicle has not been affected.

Consider also that there basically exists no liability
on the part of the appraiser or the official. Maxi-
mum safety can only be ensured with parts recom-
mended, sold and fitted or installed by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point
(MITSUBISHI MOTORS genuine replacement
parts and MITSUBISHI MOTORS accessories).
The same also pertains to modifications of
MITSUBISHI vehicles with respect to the produc-
tion specifications. For safety reasons, do not at-
tempt any modifications other than those that fol-
low the recommendations of a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point. General information

ation mode the vehicle is in when the bat-
tery is run down.

eration key is not detected to be in the ve-
hicle. Refer to “Keyless operation system:
Operating range for starting the engine
and changing the operation mode” on
