Fuel selection
E00200102343Recommen-
ded fuel Petrol-powered vehicles
Unleaded petrol octane num-
ber (EN228) 95 RON or higher
Diesel-powered vehicles Cetane number (EN590)51 or higher CAUTION
l
For
petrol-powered vehicles, the use of lea-
ded fuel can result in serious damage to
the engine and catalytic converter. Do not
use leaded fuel.
l Diesel-powered vehicles are designed to
use only diesel fuel that meets the EN 590
standard.
Use of any other type of diesel fuel would
adversely affect the engine’s performance
and durability. NOTE
l Due
to the separation of paraffin, the fluidity
of the fuel decreases considerably as the tem-
perature falls.
Because of this fact there are two kinds of
fuel: “summer” and “winter”.
This must be considered in winter use.
Select either of the two kinds of fuel in ac-
cordance with ambient temperature.
Above -5 °C: “Summer” diesel
Below -5 °C: “Winter” diesel
When travelling abroad, find out in advance
about the fuels served in local service stations.
l Petrol-powered vehicles have the knock con-
trol system so that you can use unleaded pet-
rol 90 RON as an emergency 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 90 RON, the
engine performance level is reduced.
l Repeatedly driving short distance at low
speeds can cause deposits to form in the fuel
system and engine, resulting in poor starting
and poor acceleration. If these problems oc-
cur, you are advised to add a detergent addi-
tive to the petrol when you refuel the vehicle.
The additive will remove the deposits, there-
by returning the engine to a normal condi-
tion. Be sure to use a genuine
MITSUBISHI FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER.
Using an unsuitable additive could make the
engine malfunction. For details, please con-
tact your MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point. l
Poor quality petrol can cause problems such
as difficult starting, stalling, engine noise
and hesitation. If you experience these prob-
lems, try another brand and/or grade of petrol.
If the check engine warning lamp flashes,
have the system checked as soon as possible
at a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point. General information

Filling the fuel tank
E00200202142WARNING
l Petrol is highly flammable and explosive.
You could be burned or seriously injured
when handling it. When refueling your ve-
hicle, always turn the engine off and keep
away from flames, sparks, and smoking
materials. Always handle fuel in well-ven-
tilated outdoor areas.
l Before removing the fuel cap, be sure to
get rid of your body’s static electricity by
touching a metal part of the car or the
fuel pump. Any static electricity on your
body could create a spark that ignites
fuel vapour.
l Perform the whole refueling process
(opening the fuel tank filler door, remov-
ing the fuel cap, etc.) by yourself. Do not
let any other person come near the fuel
tank filler. If you allowed a person to
help you and that person was carrying
static electricity, fuel vapour could be ig-
nited.
l Do not move away from the fuel tank fill-
er until refueling is finished. If you
moved away and did something else (for
example, cleaning your windscreen) part-
way through the refueling process, you
could pick up a fresh charge of static elec-
tricity.
l Be careful not to inhale fuel vapour. Fuel
contains toxic substances. WARNING
l Keep
the doors and windows closed while
refueling the vehicle. If they were open,
fuel vapour could get into the cabin.
Fuel tank capacity
65 litres
Refueling 1.
Before filling with fuel, stop the engine.
2. The fuel tank filler is located on the rear left side of your vehicle.
The fuel tank filler door can be opened from
inside the vehicle with the fuel tank filler
door release lever located below the instru-
ment panel. 3. Open
the fuel tank filler tube by slowly turn-
ing the cap anticlockwise. A- Remove

CAUTION
l
Since the fuel system may be under pres-
sure, remove the fuel tank filler tube cap
slowly. This relieves any pressure or vac-
uum that might have built up in the fuel
tank. If you hear a hissing sound, wait un-
til it stops before removing the cap. Oth-
erwise, fuel may spray out, injuring you
or others.
4. To
fill with fuel correctly depends mainly on correct handling of the fuel filler gun. Do not
tilt the gun. Insert the gun in the tank port as
far as it goes. CAUTION
l
A
label which reads “UNLEADED FUEL
ONLY” is attached to the fuel tank filler
lid of vehicles which can only operate us-
ing unleaded petrol. Serious engine and
catalytic converter damage will result if
leaded petrol is filled into these vehicles,
and consequently, this must never be at-
tempted.
5. When
the gun stops automatically, do not fill with fuel any more. CAUTION
l
To
avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do
not “top-off” the fuel tank. 6. To
close, turn the fuel tank filler tube cap
slowly clockwise until you hear clicking
sounds, then gently push the fuel tank filler
door closed. CAUTION
l
If
you need to replace the fuel tank filler
tube cap, use only the cap specified for
your model vehicle. Installation of accessories
E00200300745
We
recommend you to consult your 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 fitting
instructions and warnings contained within
the documents accompanying the parts or ac-
cessories.
l Improper installation of electrical compo-
nents may cause an electrical fire if incorrect-
ly fitted. Please refer to the Modification/al-
teration to the electrical or fuel systems sec-
tion 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 the large number of accessory and replace-
ment parts of different manufactures available in
the market, it is not possible, not only for
MITSUBISHI MOTORS, but also a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point, to check
whether the attachment or installation of such parts
affects thedriving safety of your MITSUBISHI-ve-
hicle.

Electronic immobilizer
(Anti-theft starting system) E00300201553
The
electronic immobilizer is designed to signifi-
cantly reduce the possibility of vehicle theft. The
purpose of the system is to immobilize the vehicle
if an invalid start is attempted. A valid start attempt
can only be achieved (subject to certain conditions)
using a keyless operation system “registered” to
the immobilizer system.

l In the following cases, the vehicle may not
be able to receive the registered ID code
from the key. This means the engine will not
start even when the registered key is turned
to the “START” position.
• When the key contacts a key ring or othermetallic or magnetic object (Type A)
• When the key grip contacts metal of an- other key (Type B)
• When the key contacts or is close to other immobilizing keys (including keys of oth-
er vehicles) (Type C)
In cases like these, remove the object or
additional key from the vehicle key and
turn the key back to the “ACC” or
“LOCK” position. Then try again to start
the engine. If the engine does not start,
we recommend you to contact your
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point. NOTE
