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.

CAUTION
l
The safety mechanism is cancelled just be-
fore the sunroof is fully closed. This al-
lows the sunroof to close completely.
Therefore be especially careful that no fin-
gers are trapped in the sunroof.
NOTE l The
sunroof stops just before reaching the
fully open position.
If the vehicle is driven with the sunroof in
this position, wind throb is lower than with
the sunroof fully open.
l When leaving the vehicle unattended, make
sure you close the sunroof and remove the ig-
nition key.
l Do not try to operate the sunroof if it is fro-
zen closed (after snow fall or during extreme
cold).
l Do not sit or place heavy luggage on the sun-
roof or roof opening edge.
l Release the switch as soon as the sunroof rea-
ches the fully open or fully closed position.
l If the sunroof does not operate when the sun-
roof switch is operated, release the switch
and check whether something is trapped by
the sunroof. If nothing is trapped, we recom-
mend you to have the sunroof checked.
l Depending on the model of ski carriers or
roof carriers, the sunroof may make contact
with the carrier when the sunroof is tilted up.
Be careful when tilting up the sunroof if such
a ski carrier or a roof carrier is installed.
l Be sure to close the sunroof completely
when washing the vehicle or when leaving
the vehicle. l
Be
careful, not to put any wax on the weath-
erstrip (black rubber) around the sunroof
opening. If stained with wax, the weather-
strip cannot maintain a weatherproof seal
with the sunroof.
l After washing the vehicle or after it has
rained, wipe off any water that is on the sun-
roof before operating it.
l Operating the sunroof repeatedly with the en-
gine stationary will run down the battery. Op-
erate the sunroof while the engine is running.
Sunshade
Slide the sunshade manually to open and close it. CAUTION
l
Be
careful that hands are not trapped
when closing the sunshade. By the following operation, the sunshade will open
together with the sunroof.
To open
When
the switch is pressed, the sunshade will open
together with the sunroof.
NOTE
l The sunshade cannot be closed with the sun-
roof opened. Do not attempt to close the sun-
shade when the sunroof is opened. Locking and unlocking

Seat belt inspection
E00406300550
l Check
the belts for cuts, worn or frayed web-
bing and for cracked or deformed metallic
parts. Replace the belt assembly if it is defec-
tive.
l A dirty belt should be cleaned with neutral de-
tergent in warm water. After rinsing in water,
let it dry in the shade. Do not attempt to
bleach or re-dye the belts because this will af-
fect their characteristics. WARNING
l We
recommend you have all seat belt as-
semblies including retractors and attach-
ing hardware inspected after any colli-
sion. We recommend that seat belt assem-
blies in use during a collision be replaced
unless the collision was minor and the
belts show no damage and continue to op-
erate properly.
l Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of the seat belt assemblies; we recom-
mend you have this work done by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point. Incorrect repair or replace-
ment could reduce the effectiveness of the
belts and could result in serious injury in
the event of a collision.
l Once the pretensioner has been activated,
it cannot be re-used.
It must be replaced together with the re-
tractor. Supplemental restraint system
(SRS) - airbag E00407201742
The
information written in this Supplemental Re-
straint System (SRS) section contains important
points concerning the driver, front passenger, driv-
er’s knee, side and curtain airbags.
The SRS driver and front passenger airbags are de-
signed to supplement the primary protection of the
driver and front passenger side seat belt systems by
providing those occupants with protection against
head and chest injuries in certain moderate-to-se-
vere frontal collisions.
The SRS driver and front passenger airbags em-
ploy a dual stage airbag system. The SRS driver
and front passenger airbag is controlled by the im-
pact sensors (at the front of the vehicle and near the
center of the vehicle at floor level) and the driver’s
seat position sensor and the SRS front passenger air-
bag is controlled by the impact sensors.
The SRS side airbags are designed to supplement
properly worn seat belts and provide the driver and
front passenger with protection against chest and ab-
domen injuries in certain moderate-to-severe side
impact collisions.
The SRS curtain airbags are designed to supple-
ment properly worn seat belts and provide the driv-
er and passenger with protection against head inju-
ries in certain moderate-to-severe side impact colli-
sions.

Driving range
E00509400016
This
value shows the distance (in km or miles) that
can be driven on the fuel remaining in the fuel tank. NOTE
l If
the driving range drops below 50 km
(30 miles) while the driving range is dis-
played, the display shows “---”. When this oc-
curs, top up the fuel tank as soon as possible.
l The driving range varies depending on road
conditions, the manner of driving and other
related factors. Consequently, the display
should be used only as a guide. It is recom-
mended to add fuel as soon as the low fuel
warning lamp in the instrument cluster illumi-
nates.
(Refer to “Low fuel warning lamp” on page
3-04.)
l Refueling will update the driving range indi-
cation. l
The
driving range displayed is based on pre-
vious fuel consumption data. Disconnecting
the battery cable will result in the deletion of
existing fuel consumption data, which will af-
fect the unit’s calculations.
l The driving range figure can occasionally in-
crease if the vehicle is stopped on an incline.
This is because the fuel has moved in the
tank because of the incline and is not consid-
ered as a fault.
