SRS warning lamp
E00407801706
There is a Supplemental Restraint System
(“SRS”) warning lamp on the instrument panel. The system checks itself every time the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” po-
sition. The SRS warning lamp will come on
for several seconds and then go out. This is
normal and means the system is working properly. If there is a problem involving one or more of the SRS components, the warning
lamp will come on and stay on.
The SRS warning lamp is shared by the SRS
airbag and the seat belt pretensioner system.
WARNINGl If any of the following conditions occur,
there may be a problem with the SRS air- bags and/or seat belt pretensioners, and they may not function properly in a colli-WARNINGsion or may suddenly activate without a
collision:
• Even when the ignition switch is
in“ON” position, the SRS warning lamp does not come on or it remains
on.
• The SRS warning lamp comes on while
driving.
The SRS airbags and seat belt pretension- ers are designed to help reduce the risk of
serious injury or death in certain colli- sions. If either of the above conditions oc-
curs, immediately have your vehicle checked by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.SRS servicing
E00407901390
WARNINGl We recommend any maintenance per-
formed on or near the components of the
SRS to be performed by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
Improper work on the SRS components
or wiring could result in inadvertent de- ployment of the airbags, or could render
the SRS inoperative; either situation could result in serious injury.WARNINGl Do not modify your steering wheel, seat
belt retractor or any other SRS compo- nents. For example, replacement of the
steering wheel, or modifications to the
front bumper or body structure can ad- versely affect SRS performance and lead
to possible injury.
l If your vehicle has sustained any damage,
we recommend you to have the SRS in- spected to ensure it is in proper workingorder.
l On vehicles equipped with side airbags,
do not modify your front seats, centre pil- lar and centre console.
It can adversely affect SRS performance and lead to possible injury. If you found
any tear, scratch, crack or damage to the
seat fabric near the side airbag, the por-
tion of the front and rear pillars and roof side rail, you should have the SRS inspec- ted by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point.NOTEl When you transfer ownership of the vehicle
to some other person, we urge you to alert
the new owner that it is equipped with the SRS and refer the new owner to the applica- ble section in this owner’s manual.

fuel tank when the ignition switch is in the
“ON” position.
F- Full
E- Empty
CAUTIONl For petrol-powered vehicles, do not drive
with an extremely low fuel level; running
out of fuel could cause damage to the cata-
lytic converter.
l For diesel-powered vehicles, do not drive
with an extremely low fuel level; running out of fuel could cause damage to the fuel
system.

NOTElWhen the vehicle has been refuelled, the
pointer in the fuel gauge takes a short while
to stabilize.
l The fuel gauge will not give an accurate in-
dication if the vehicle is refuelled with the ignition switch in the “ON” position.
l When the engine on diesel-powered vehicles
fails to operate due to running out of fuel, it may sometimes be difficult to start after re-
fueling. This is due to air entering the fuel
system. Therefore, air must be bled from the system. (Refer to “Bleeding the fuel system” on page 8-06.)
Fuel lid mark
The fuel lid mark (A) indicates that the fuel
tank filler door is located on the right side of the vehicle.
Low fuel warning lamp
E00508101778
The warning lamp (A) comes on when the
fuel level is getting low (approx. 10 litres )
with the ignition switch in the “ON” position.
Refuel as soon as possible.NOTEl On inclines or curves, due to the movement
of fuel in the tank, the low fuel warning lamp may indicate incorrectly.Water temperature gauge
E00500801519
The water temperature gauge indicates the
engine coolant temperature when the ignition
switch is in the “ON” position.
CAUTIONl If the indication needle enters the H zone
while the engine is running, it indicates that
the engine is possibly overheating. Immedi-
ately park your vehicle in a safe place and make the necessary corrections. (Refer to“Engine overheating” on page 8-04.)
While driving, care should always be taken
to maintain the normal operating tempera- ture.

on after the engine is started, the engine speed may not rise above the idling speedbecause of fuel freezing. In this case, keep
the engine idling for about ten minutes, then turn off the ignition switch and immediately
turn it on again to confirm that the diesel
preheat indication lamp is off.NOTEl If the engine is cold, the diesel preheat indi-
cation lamp is on for a longer time.
