fuelCetane number (EN590) 51 or higherCAUTIONlYour vehicle is designed to use only diesel
fuel that meets the EN590 standard.
Use of any other type of diesel fuel would
adversely affect the engine’s performance and durability.NOTEl Due to the separation of paraffin, the fluidity
of the fuel decreases considerably as the
temperature 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 sta- tions.NOTEl Poor-quality diesel fuel can cause deposits to
form in the injector, resulting in black smoke
and rough idling.
If these problems occur, you are advised to add a cleaning additive to the diesel fuelwhen you refuel the vehicle.
The additive will break up and remove the
deposits, thereby returning the engine to a normal condition.
Be sure to use a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
GENUINE DIESEL FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER. Using an unsuitable additive
could make the engine malfunction. For de- tails, please contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.Filling the fuel tank
E00200202025WARNINGlWhen handling fuel, comply with the safe-
ty regulations displayed by garages and
filling stations.
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.WARNINGl Perform the whole refueling process
(opening the fuel tank filler door, remov- ing the fuel cap, etc.) by yourself. Do notlet 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.
l 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, cleaning your windscreen) partway through the refueling process, you could
pick up a fresh charge of static electricity.
l If the tank cap must be replaced, use only
a MITSUBISHI MOTORS original part.
