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.

programming, 
the radio searches a frequency broad-
casting  the  regional  programming.  The  radio  suc-
ceeds  in  searching  the  regional  programming,  then
the display shows the REG indicator (11).
