Fuel selectionE00200104813Recommended fuel
Cetane number (EN
590) 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.
l If proper “winter” fuel is not used in winter,
the diesel preheat indication lamp may blink
and the engine speed may not rise above the idling speed because of fuel freezing. In thiscase, keep the engine idling for approxi-
mately 10 minutes, then turn off the ignition switch or put the operation mode in OFF and
immediately turn it on or put in ON again to confirm that the diesel preheat indication
lamp is off. (Refer to “Diesel preheat indica- tion lamp” on page 5-14)NOTEl For diesel fuel, due to the separation of par-
affin, the fluidity of the fuel decreases con- siderably 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.
l 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 fuel when 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 your MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.Filling the fuel tank
E00200204322WARNINGlWhen handling fuel, comply with the safe-
ty regulations displayed by garages and filling stations.
l Fuel is highly flammable and explosive.
You could be burned or seriously injured
when handling it. When refueling your
vehicle, always turn the engine off and keep away from flames, sparks and smok-
ing 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 vehicle or
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.
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, sitting on a seat) part-way through
the refueling process, you could pick up a fresh charge of static electricity.
l Be careful not to inhale fuel vapour. Fuel
contains toxic substances.
