CAUTIONlDo not use more than 10 % concentration of
ethanol (grain alcohol) by volume.
Use of more than 10 % concentration may
lead to damage to your vehicle fuel system,
engine, engine sensors and exhaust system.Filling the fuel tank
E00200204120WARNINGlWhen handling fuel, comply with the safe-
ty regulations displayed by garages and
filling stations.
l Gasoline is highly flammable and explo-
sive. You could be burned or seriously in-
jured when handling it. When refueling
your vehicle, always turn the engine off and keep away from flames, sparks, andsmoking materials. Always handle fuel in
well-ventilated 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 ignited.WARNINGl Do not move away from the fuel tank fill-
er until refueling is finished. If you moved away and did something else (for exam-
ple, sitting on a seat) part-way through the refueling process, you could pick up afresh charge of static electricity.
l If the tank cap must be replaced, use only
a MITSUBISHI MOTORS genuine part.

“Child-protection” reardoors E00300900999
1- Lock
2- Unlock
Child protection helps prevent the rear doors
from being opened accidentally from the in- side.
If the lever is set to the locked position, the
rear door cannot be opened using the inside handle, but only with the outside handle.
If the lever is set to the “Unlock” position,
the child protection mechanism does not
function.
CAUTIONl When driving with a child in the rear seat,
please use the child protection to prevent ac-
cidental door opening which may cause an accident.Tailgate
E00301402461WARNINGlThe luggage compartment was not de-
signed for people to ride in it. Do not let
passengers ride in or let children play in
the luggage compartment. Riding or play- ing in the luggage compartment could re-
sult in a serious accident.
l It is dangerous to drive with the tailgate
open, since carbon monoxide (CO) gas
contained in engine exhaust gases can en- ter the cabin.
You cannot see or smell CO. It can cause
unconsciousness and even death.
In addition, if the tailgate opens when
driving, luggage could fall onto the road and cause an accident.
l When opening and closing the tailgate,
make sure that there are no people near-
by and that there is sufficient space be-
hind and above the vehicle. In addition, be careful not to hit your head or pinch
your hands, neck, etc.WARNINGl When there is a build up of snow or ice, it
should be removed before opening the tailgate. If you open the tailgate without
removing it, there is a possibility that the tailgate may close suddenly due to theweight of that snow or ice.
l When you open the tailgate make sure
that the tailgate is opened fully and re- mains fully open. If you only open the tail-
gate halfway there is a risk that the tail- gate may drop and slam shut. If you open
the tailgate while your vehicle is parked on an incline it is more difficult to do so than on the flat and also it may drop and
slam shut.CAUTIONl Do not stand behind the exhaust pipe when
loading and unloading luggage. The heat
from the exhaust could lead to burns.
l To avoid damage to the tailgate, make sure
the area above and behind the tailgate is
clear before opening it.NOTEl Locking/unlocking with the central door
lock switch, the keyless entry system, or the
keyless operation function also locks/ unlocks the tailgate.
