fuel
Petrol-powered vehicles Unleaded petrol octanenumber (EN228) 90 RON or higher (3000
models)
95 RON or higher (3800
models)
If the “PREMIUM FUEL ONLY” label is attached tothe fuel tank filler door, fill
it up with premium fuel.
Diesel-powered vehicles Cetane number (EN590)51 or higherCAUTIONl For petrol-powered vehicles, the use of lea-
ded fuel can result in serious damage to the engine and catalytic converter. Do not use leaded fuel.
l Diesel-powered vehicles are designed to use
only diesel fuel that meets the EN 590 stand-
ard.
Use of any other type of diesel fuel would adversely affect the engine’s performance
and durability.CAUTIONl For diesel-powered vehicles, if proper “win-
ter” fuel is not used in winter, the diesel pre-
heat indication lamp may blink and the en- gine speed may not rise above the idling speed because of fuel freezing. In this case,
keep the engine idling for about ten minutes,
then turn off the ignition switch and immedi- ately turn it on again to confirm that the die-
sel preheat indication lamp is off. (Refer to “Diesel preheat indication lamp” on page
5-09.)

NOTEl It is advisable to sufficiently warm up the
engine after starting it when the outside tem-
perature is below zero °C.
l 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 The 3800 models have the knock control
system so that you can use unleaded petrol
91 RON as an emergent measure in case un-
leaded petrol 95 RON or higher is not avail-
able on journey, etc. In such a case, you don’t need to adjust the engine specially.
In case of using unleaded petrol 91 RON ,
the engine performance level is reduced.
l In petrol-powered vehicles, repeatedly driv-
ing short distances at low speeds can cause
deposits to form in the fuel system and en-
gine, resulting in poor starting and poor ac-
celeration.
If these problems occur, you are advised to add a detergent additive to the gasoline
when you refuel the vehicle. The additive
will remove the deposits, thereby returning the engine to a normal condition. Be sure to use a MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENUINE
FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER. Using an un-
suitable additive could make the engine mal- function. For details, please contact your
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
l Poor quality petrol can cause problems such
as difficult starting, stalling, engine noise
and hesitation. If you experience these prob- lems, try another brand and/or grade of pet-
rol.
If the check engine warning lamp flashes,
have the system checked as soon as possible
at a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point.

NOTElIn diesel-powered vehicles, poor-quality die-
sel fuel can cause deposits form in the injec- tor, resulting in black smoke and rough
idling.
If these problems occur, you are advised to add a cleaning additive to the diesel fuel
when you refuel the vehicle.
The additive will break up and remove the deposits, thereby returning the engine to anormal 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 your MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.E10 type petrol
E00203200019
The petrol engines are compatible with E10
type petrol (containing 10 % ethanol) con- forming to European standards EN 228.
CAUTIONl Do 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
E00200204087WARNINGlWhen handling fuel, comply with the safe-
ty regulations displayed by garages and filling stations.
l Before removing the fuel tank filler tube
cap, be sure to get rid of your body’s stat-
ic electricity by touching a metal part of the car or fuel pump. Any static electricity
on your body could create a spark that ig-
nites fuel vapour.
l Perform the whole refueling process
(opening the fuel tank filler door, remov-
ing the fuel tank filler tube 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.
l Do not move away from the fuel tank fill-
er door until refueling is finished. If you moved away and did something else (for
example, cleaning your windscreen) part- way through the refueling process, you
could pick up a fresh charge of static elec-
tricity.
l If the fuel tank filler tube cap must be re-
placed, use only a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS genuine part.
Fuel tank capacity
3-door models: 69 litres

CAUTIONsuddenly; consequently, avoid driving athigh speeds or applying the brakes suddenly.
Furthermore, the vehicle should be brought
to a stop in a safe location and to have it checked.
• The brake warning lamp does not illumi-
nate when the parking brake is applied ordoes not turn off when the parking brake
is released.
• The ABS warning lamp and brake warn-
ing lamp illuminate at the same time.
For details, refer to “ABS warning lamp” on page 6-43.
• The brake warning lamp remains illumi-
nated during driving.
• The brake warning buzzer does not turn
off.
l The vehicle should be brought to a halt in
the following manner when brake perform-
ance has deteriorated.
• Depress the brake pedal harder than usual.
Even if the brake pedal moves down to
the very end of its possible stroke, keep it pressed down hard.
• Should the brakes fail, use engine braking
to reduce your speed and pull the parking
brake lever.
Depress the brake pedal to operate the
stop lamp to alert the vehicles behind you.NOTEl In certain cases immediately after the engine
has been started or when the brake pedal is
depressed repeatedly, a noise generated by operation of brake devices may be heard coming from the engine compartment. At
this time, you may feel a shock from the brake pedal if you depress it. This type of
noise or shock is normal and there is no need for concern. In fact, they indicate that the
corresponding devices are operating normal- ly.
l The brake system uses brake fluid pressur-
ized by the pump.
Please refer to “Braking” on page 6-39.Check engine warning lamp
E00502603052
This lamp is a part of an on-
board diagnostic system
which monitors the emis-
sions, engine control system or automatic transmission
control systems.
If a problem is detected in one of these sys-
tems, this lamp illuminates.
Although your vehicle will usually be driva-
ble and not need towing, we recommend you to have the system checked as soon as possi-
ble.

[Vehicles to comply with the Euro 4 regula-
tion]
This lamp will also illuminate for a few sec-
onds when the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position. If it does not go off after a few seconds, we recommend you to have the vehicle checked.

[Vehicles to comply with the Euro 5 and Eu-
ro 6]
This lamp will also illuminate when the igni-
tion switch is turned “ON”, and goes off after the engine has started. If it does not go off af- ter the engine has started, we recommend youto have the system checked.CAUTIONl Prolonged driving with this lamp on may
cause further damage to the emission control system. It could also affect fuel economy
and drivability.
l If the lamp does not illuminate when the ig-
nition switch is turned to the “ON” position,
we recommend you to have the system
checked.
l If the lamp illuminates while the engine is
running, avoid driving at high speeds and we recommend you to have the system checked.
Accelerator pedal and brake pedal response may be negatively influenced under these
conditions.

5-11OVWE16E1Instruments and controls5

NOTElWhen the engine is warm, the diesel preheat
indication lamp does not come on even if the
ignition key is placed in the “ON” position.
Start the engine by turning the ignition key
right to the “START” position.
7. Turn the ignition key to the “START”
position without depressing the accelera- tor pedal, and release it when the engine
starts.
Fuel injection amount learning
process (diesel-powered vehi-cles)
E00616000044
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.
NOx trap catalyst
(dieselpowered vehicles)* E00649200020
A NOx (nitrogen oxide) trap catalyst absorbs
the NOx contained in the exhaust gas of the diesel engine.
To maintain the NOx absorbing function, the
fuel is supplied regularly to the catalyst while
driving, and the catalyst reduces NOx to harmless N2 (nitrogen).
The bar graph of momentary fuel consump-
tion in the centre information display and en- gine sound change while NOx is being
purged automatically by the catalyst. These
do not indicate a fault.Diesel particulate filter
(DPF)* E00619800027
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.
NOx trap catalyst (dieselpowered vehicles)*
6-16OVWE16E1Starting and driving6

WARNINGlAs with any vehicle, do not park or oper-
ate this vehicle in areas where combusti-
ble materials such as dry grass or leaves
can come in contact with a hot exhaust since a fire could occur.
l Paint should not be applied to the catalyt-
ic converter.NOTEl In case of the petrol-powered vehicles, use

4.Remove the dipstick and wipe it with a
clean cloth.
5. Reinsert the dipstick as far as it goes.
6. Remove the dipstick and read the oil lev- el, which should always be within the
range indicated.
7. If the oil level is below the specified
limit, remove the cap located on the cyl-inder head cover and add enough oil to
raise the level to within the specified
range. Do not overfill to avoid engine
damage. Be sure to use the specified en-
gine oil and do not mix various types of oil.
8. After adding oil, close the cap securely.
9. Confirm the oil level by repeating step 4
to 6.
Use only the recommended oils with an ACEA or API classification as specified inthis manual.NOTEl For 3200 models, check or refill the oil ac-
cording to the following manner.
• When the oil level is checked in step 6
above, check it on a low side of the dip-
stick because it is different in appearance
of oil level in the two sides of the dip-
stick.
• On vehicles without diesel particulate fil-
ter (DPF), the oil level should be within the range (A) to (B) on the dipstick.NOTE• On vehicles with DPF, the oil level should
be within the range (A) to (C) (oil re-
placement indication mark) on the dip- stick.
If the oil level is beyond the oil replace-
ment indication mark (C), replace the oil as soon as possible.
Then, the oil should be refilled to the
maximum level (B).
• On vehicles with DPF, the engine oil will
increase due to a little fuel getting mixed in the engine oil when the DPF regener-
ates to burn away the PM (particulate
matter). However, it does not indicate a malfunction.
l The engine oil will deteriorate rapidly if the
vehicle is subjected to severe conditions, re- quiring earlier oil replacement. Please referto the maintenance schedule.
l For handling of used engine oils, refer to
page 2-05.Selection of engine oil
Petrol-powered vehicles
l Select engine oil of the proper SAE vis-
cosity number according to the atmos- pheric temperature.
SAE 0W-20*, 0W-30, 5W-30, and 5W-40 engine oils can only be used if
they meet ACEA A3/B3, A3/B4 or
A5/B5 and API SM (or higher) specifi-
cations.
*: Only the vehicles complying with the Euro 5 regulation
l Use engine oil conforming to the follow-
ing classification: • API classification: “For service SM”
or higher
• ILSAC certificated oil
• ACEA classification: “For service A1/B1, A3/B3 , A3/B4 or
A5/B5”
