Mitsubishi Motors Corporation strongly sup- ports the use of reform
ulated gasoline. Prop-
erly blended reformul
ated gasoline has no
adverse effect on vehicle performance or the durability of the engine and the fuel system. MMT is a manganese-containing metallic additive that is blende
d into some gasolines
to increase the octa
ne number. Mitsubishi
Motors Corporation recommends using gaso- lines without MMT. Use of gasolines blended with MMT mayadversely affect performance, and cause the malfunction indicator on your instrument panel to come on. If this happens, contact anauthorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your
choice for assistance.
Your vehicle may have
been designed to sat-
isfy California’s low-emission regulations based on clean-burning low-sulfur gasoline.Gasoline sold in parts of the country other than California is allowed to have a higher sulfur content. Using such gasoline couldadversely affect the ve
hicle’s catalytic con-
verter and cause the e
ngine malfunction indi-
cator (“SERVICE ENGINE SOON” or “Check engine light”)
to come on. Illumina-
tion of this indicator
while using high-sulfur
gasoline does not necessa
rily mean the vehi-
cle’s emission-control
system is malfunction-
ing. Your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer may suggest using a different, lower- sulfur brand of unleaded gasoline to deter-mine if the problem is fuel-related.
N00301101965
MMT (methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl) Sulfur in gasoline
NOTE
 Poor-quality gasoline
can cause problems
such as hard starting, stalling during idling,abnormal engine noise
, and poor accelera-
tion. If you experience any of these prob- lems, try using a differ
ent brand of gasoline.
If the engine malfunc
tion indicator (“SER-
VICE ENGINE SOON” light”) flashes, have
the vehicle inspected as
soon as possible by the nearest authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer
or a repair facility
of your choice.
 Repeatedly driving s
hort distances at low
speeds can cause deposits to form in the fuelsystem and engine, resu
lting in hard starting
and poor acceleration.
If these problems
occur, you are advised to add a detergent additive to the gasoline when you refuel thevehicle. The additive
will remove the depos-
its, thereby returning the engine to a normal condition. Be sure
to use a Mitsubishi
Motors Genuine cleani
ng additive. Using an
unsuitable additive could make an engine malfunction. For details,
please contact the
nearest authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.

WA R N I N G When handling fuel, comply with the safety regulations displayed by garagesand filling stations. Gasoline is highly flammable and explo- sive. You could be burned, seriously injured or killed when handling it. When refueling your vehicle,
always turn the
engine off and keep
away from flames,
sparks, and smoking materials. Always handle fuel in well-ventilated outdoor areas.NOTE

den stop, all seatbacks should be kept inthe upright position while the vehicle is in motion. Seat belt performance during an accidentcan be adversely affect
ed if the seatbacks
are reclined. The more a seatback is reclined, the more likely seat belt perfor-mance will be adversely affected. If the seat belt is not proper
ly positioned against
