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.

3-door models: 69 litres

Refueling
1. Before filling with fuel, stop the engine.
2. The fuel tank filler is located on the rear
right side of your vehicle.
Open the fuel tank filler door with the
release lever located below the instru- ment panel.

2.Fasten the seat belt to secure the child
restraint system. Make sure you hear a “click” when you insert the latch plate in
the buckle.
3. Remove all slack by using the locking
clip.
4. Push and pull the child restraint in all di-
rections to be sure it is secure.WARNINGl For some types of child restraint, the lock-
ing clip (A) should be used to help avoid personal injury during a collision or sud-den manoeuvre.
It must be fitted and used in accordance
with the child restraint manufacturer’s instructions.
The locking clip must be removed when the child restraint is removed.Seat belt inspection
E00406300475
l Check the belts for cuts, worn or frayed
webbing and for cracked or deformed metallic parts. Replace the belt assembly
if it is defective.
l A dirty belt should be cleaned with neu-
tral detergent in warm water. After rins-
ing in water, let it dry in the shade. Do
not attempt to bleach or re-dye the belts
because this will affect their characteris-
tics.WARNINGl We recommend you to have all seat belt
assemblies including retractors and at- taching hardware inspected after any col- lision. We recommend that seat belt as-
semblies in use during a collision be re- placed unless the collision was minor and
the belts show no damage and continue to operate properly.
l Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of the seat belt assemblies; we recom- mend you to have this work done by aMITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point. Incorrect repair or replace- ment could reduce the effectiveness of the
belts and could result in serious injury in
the event of a collision.WARNINGl Once the pretensioner has been activated,
it cannot be re-used.
It must be replaced together with the re- tractor.Supplemental restraint
system (SRS) - airbag E00407203397
The information written in this Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) section contains im- portant points concerning the driver, front
passenger, side and curtain airbags.
The SRS driver’s and front passenger’s air- bags are designed to supplement the primary
protection of the driver and front passenger
side seat belt systems by providing those oc- cupants with protection against head and
chest injuries in certain moderate-to-severe
frontal collisions.
The SRS driver’s and front passenger’s air- bags employ a dual stage airbag system. The
SRS driver’s and front passenger’s airbag is controlled by the impact sensors (at the frontof the vehicle) and the control unit (near the
centre of the vehicle at floor level).

If the lever is put in the “AUTO” position,the rain sensor (A) will detect the extent of
rain (or snow, other moisture, dust, etc.) and the wipers will operate automatically.
Keep the lever in the “OFF” position if the windscreen is dirty and the weather is dry.
Wiper operation under these conditions can scratch the windscreen and damage the wip-
ers.CAUTIONl With the ignition switch in the “ON” posi-
tion and the lever in the “AUTO” position,the wipers may automatically operate in the situations described below.
If your hands get trapped, you could suffer injuries or the wipers could malfunction. Be sure to turn the ignition switch to the “OFF”
position or move the lever to the “OFF” po-
sition to deactivate the rain sensor.
• When cleaning the outside surface of the
windscreen, if you touch the rain sensor.
• When cleaning the outside surface of the
windscreen, if you wipe with a cloth the
rain sensor.
• When using an automatic car wash.

sensor.NOTEl To protect the rubber parts of the wipers,
this operation of the wipers does not take
place even if the lever is put in the “AUTO” position when the vehicle is stationary and
the ambient temperature is about 0 °C or lower.
l Do not cover the sensor by affixing a sticker
or label to the windscreen. Also, do not put any water-repellent coating on the wind-screen. The rain sensor would not be able to
detect the extent of rain, and the wipers
might stop working normally.NOTEl In the following cases, the rain sensor may
be malfunctioning.
Have the vehicle inspected at a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
• When the wipers operate at a constant in-
terval despite changes in the extent of
rain.
• When the wipers do not operate even
though it is raining.
l The wipers may automatically operate when
things such as insects or foreign objects are affixed to the windscreen on top of the rainsensor or when the windscreen is frozen.
Objects affixed to the windscreen will stop
the wipers when the wipers cannot remove them. To make the wipers operate again,
place the lever in the “LO” or “HI” position.
Also, the wipers may operate automatically due to strong direct sunlight or electromag-
netic wave. To stop the wipers, place the lever in the “OFF” position.
