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.

CAUTIONlSince the fuel system may be under pressure,
remove the fuel 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 before removing the fuel cap. Otherwise, fuel may spray out,
injuring you or others.NOTEl While filling with fuel, hang the fuel cap on
the hook (A) located on the inside of the fuel
tank filler door.4. Insert the gun in the tank port as far as it
goes.CAUTIONl Do not tilt the gun.
5.
When the gun stops automatically, do
not fill with fuel any more.

6. [Vehicles for Type 1, 2] To close, turn the fuel cap slowly clock-
wise until you hear clicking sounds, then
gently push the fuel tank filler door
closed.
[Vehicles for Type 3]
To close, turn the fuel cap slowly clock-
wise until you hear clicking sounds, then turn the key clockwise to lock the fuelcap.

CAUTIONlYour vehicle is equipped with a diagnosis
connector for checking and servicing theelectronic control system.
Do not connect a device other than a diagno-
sis tool for inspections and service to this
connector.
Otherwise, the battery could be discharged,
the electronic devices of the vehicle could malfunction, or other unexpected problems could result.
In addition, malfunctions caused by connect-
ing a device other than a diagnosis tool may not be covered under warranty.
l The installation of accessories, optional
parts, etc., should only be carried out
within the limits prescribed by law in your country, and in accordance with the
guidelines and warnings contained with-
in the documents accompanying this ve- hicle.
l Improper installation of electrical parts
could cause fire, please refer to the Mod-
ification/ alteration to the electrical or fuel systems section within this owner’smanual.
l When installing the radio, for the re-
quired information (frequency, transmis-
sion output, installing procedure), con-
sult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point.
If the frequency, transmission output and
installing condition are not appropriate, it can adversely affect the electronic de-vices and could lead to unsafe vehicle
operation.
l Using a cellular phone or radio set inside
the vehicle without an external antenna
may cause electrical system interference,
which could lead to unsafe vehicle oper- ation.
l Tyres and wheels which do not meet
specifications must not be used.
Refer to the “Specifications” section for information regarding wheel and tyre
sizes.
Important points!
Due to a large number of accessories and re-
placement parts of different manufactures available in the market, it is not possible, not
only for MITSUBISHI MOTORS , but also a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point, to check whether the attachment or in-
stallation of such parts affects the overall safety of your MITSUBISHI-vehicle.

Even when such parts are officially Author-
ized, for example by a “general operators permit” (an appraisal for the part) or throughthe execution of the part in an officially ap-
proved manner of construction, or when a single operation permit following the attach-
ment or installation of such parts, it cannot be deduced from that alone, that the drivingsafety of your vehicles has not been affected.

Consider also that there basically exists no li-
ability on the part of the appraiser or the offi- cial. Maximum safety can only be ensured
with parts recommended, sold and fitted or
installed by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point ( MITSUBISHI
MOTORS GENUINE replacement parts and
MITSUBISHI MOTORS accessories). The
same also pertains to modifications of
MITSUBISHI vehicles with respect to the
production specifications. For safety reasons, do not attempt any modifications other than
those that follow the recommendations of a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point.
