Fuel selectionE00200102907Recommended
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.
Fuel tank capacity
75 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.

Open the fuel tank filler door with the
release lever located below the instru-
ment panel.3. Open the fuel tank filler tube by slowly
turning the cap anticlockwise.
A- Remove B- Close
Type 2
Slide the cover (1). Insert the key in the
cap (2) and unlock it.
Turn the cap and remove it.
CAUTIONl Since the fuel system may be under pressure,
remove the fuel tank filler tube cap slowly. This relieves any pressure or vacuum that
might have built up in the fuel tank. If you
hear a hissing sound, wait until it stops be- fore removing the cap. Otherwise, fuel may
spray out, injuring you or others.
4. Insert the gun in the tank port as far as it
goes. Do not tilt the gun.
5. When the gun stops automatically, do
not fill with fuel any more.
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.
Installation of accessories
E00200300875
We recommend you to consult yourMITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point.
l The installation of accessories, optional
parts, should only be carried out within
the limits prescribed by law in your
country, and in accordance with the
guidelines fitting instructions and warn- ings contained within the documents ac-
companying the parts or accessories.

Tripmeter
The tripmeter indicates the distance travelled
during a particular trip or period.
There are two tripmeter displays: TRIP
and .
TRIP
can be used to measure the distance
travelled since the current trip began. At the same time, TRIP
can be used to measure
the distance from an intermediate location.
Every time the reset button (C) is pressed
lightly (less than 1 second), the tripmeter dis-
play changes (between TRIP
and ).
Type 1Type 2
To reset the tripmeter
To return the display to “0”, press the reset
button (C) for more than 1 second. Only the currently displayed value will be reset. IfTRIP
is displayed, for example, only
TRIP
will be reset.
NOTEl Display TRIP and
each have a max-
imum distance of 999.9 km (999.9 miles).
l When disconnecting the battery terminal for
a long time, the memory of tripmeter display

and are cleared, and the dis-
play returns to “0”.
Fuel gauge
E00500700902
The fuel gauge indicates the fuel level in the
fuel tank when the ignition switch is in the
“ON” position.
F- Full
E- Empty
NOTEl When the engine on diesel-powered vehicles
fails to operate due to running out of fuel, it may sometimes be difficult to start after re-
fueling. This is due to air entering the fuel
system. Therefore, air must be bled from the system. (Refer to “Bleeding the fuel system” on page 8-05.)

Fuel injection amount learningprocess
E00616000028
To keep exhaust emissions and engine noise
low, the engine very occasionally performs a
learning process for the fuel injection
amount.
The engine sounds slightly different from
usual while the learning process is taking place. The change in the engine sound does
not indicate a fault.
Diesel particulate filter
(DPF)* E00619800232
The diesel particulate filter (DPF) is a devicethat captures most of the particulate matter
(PM) in the exhaust emissions of the diesel engine. The DPF automatically burns away trapped PM during vehicle operation. Under
certain driving conditions, however, the DPF is not able to burn away all of the trapped PM
and, as a result, an excessive amount of PM accumulates inside it.
WARNINGl The DPF reaches very high temperatures.
Do not park your vehicle in areas where
combustible materials such as dry grass
or leaves can come in contact with a hot exhaust system since a fire could occur.CAUTIONl Do not use any type of fuel or engine oil that
is not specified for your vehicle. Also, do not use any moisture-removing agent or oth-
er fuel additive. Such substances could have a detrimental effect on the DPF.
Refer to “Fuel selection” on page 2-02 and
“Engine oil” on page 10-04.NOTEl To minimize the likelihood of excessive ac-
cumulation of PM, try to avoid driving for long periods at low speeds and repeatedly
driving short distances.DPF warning lamp
The DPF warning lamp comes on or flashes
in the event of an abnormality in the DPF system. Provided the DPF system is workingnormally, the DPF warning lamp comes on
when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position and goes off a few seconds
later.
If the DPF warning lamp
comes on during vehicle opera- tion
Steady illumination of the DPF warning lamp shows that the DPF has not been able to burn
away all of the trapped PM and that, as a re-
sult, an excessive amount of PM has accumu- lated inside it. To enable the DPF to burn
away the PM, try to drive the vehicle as fol-
lows:
