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.

4.Check the coolant level in the reserve
tank (B).
5. Add coolant to the radiator and/or re-
serve tank if necessary (refer to the
“Maintenance” section).
WARNINGl Make sure that the engine has cooled
down before removing the radiator cap (C), because hot steam or boiling water
otherwise will gush from the filler port and may scald you.CAUTIONl Do not add coolant while the engine is hot.
Suddenly adding cold coolant could damage the engine. Wait for the engine to cool
down, then add coolant a little at a time.6. Examine the radiator hoses for coolant
leakage and the drive belt for looseness
or damage.
If there is anything wrong with the cool-
ing system or drive belt, we recommend
you to have it checked and repaired.Bleeding the fuel system
E00800701423
The fuel system should be bled to remove air
as described below if the fuel supply is ex- hausted during travel.
Pump the hand pump (A) at the top of the fuel filter until the hand pump becomes stiff.Then try again to start the engine.
If the engine does not start, repeat the process
above.
CAUTIONl Do not smoke or have any other open flame
near the vehicle while bleeding the fuel sys-
tem.
l Be sure to carefully clean away any spilt fuel
which could ignite and cause a fire.Removal of water from the
fuel filter E00800801525
If the fuel filter indication lamp in the instru-ment panel illuminates during driving, it indi-
cates that water has accumulated in the fuel filter. If this occurs, remove the water as de-
scribed below. 1. Loosen the drain plug (A) of the fuel fil-
ter.
Bleeding the fuel system

2.Operate the hand pump (B) slowly 6 or 7
times in order to force the water out
through the drain plug (A).
3. Tighten the drain plug (A) when water
no longer comes out.
4. Bleed the air in the fuel system. (Refer to “Bleeding the fuel system” onpage 8-11.)
5. Check to be sure that the fuel filter indi-
cation lamp illuminates when the igni- tion switch is turned to “ON” or the op-
eration mode is put in ON, and that it
goes off when the engine is started. If in
doubt, we recommend you to consult a specialist for necessary information.
CAUTIONl Do not smoke or have any other open flame
near the vehicle while bleeding the fuel sys-
tem.
l Be sure to carefully clean away any water
drained out because any fuel mixed with the water could ignite and cause a fire.Tools, jack and jack handle

l Some fuses may not be installed on your
vehicle, depending on the vehicle model
or specifications.
l The table above shows the main equip-
ment corresponding to each fuse.
The fuse block does not contain spare 7.5 A ,
10 A or 15 A fuses. If one of these fuses burns out, substitute with the following fuse.7.5 A: Outside rear-view mirrors
10 A: Option
15 A: Cigarette lighter
When using a substitute fuse, replace with a
fuse of the correct capacity as soon as possi-
ble.
