fuel
Petrol-powered vehicles Unleaded petrol octanenumber (EN228) 90 RON or higher
If the “PREMIUM FUEL
ONLY” label is attached to the fuel tank filler door, fill
it up with premium fuel.
Diesel-powered vehicles Cetane number (EN590)51 or higherCAUTIONl For petrol-powered vehicles, the use of lea-
ded fuel can result in serious damage to the engine and catalytic converter. Do not use leaded fuel.
l Diesel-powered vehicles are designed to use
only diesel fuel that meets the EN 590 stand-
ard.
Use of any other type of diesel fuel would adversely affect the engine’s performance
and durability.CAUTIONl For diesel-powered vehicles, if proper “win-
ter” fuel is not used in winter, the diesel pre-
heat indication lamp may blink and the en- gine speed may not rise above the idling speed because of fuel freezing. In this case,
keep the engine idling for about ten minutes,
then turn off the ignition switch and immedi- ately turn it on again to confirm that the die-
sel preheat indication lamp is off. (Refer to “Diesel preheat indication lamp” on page
5-09.)

NOTEl It is advisable to sufficiently warm up the
engine after starting it when the outside tem-
perature is below zero °C.
l Due to the separation of paraffin, the fluidity
of the fuel decreases considerably 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.NOTEl In petrol-powered vehicles, repeatedly driv-
ing short distances at low speeds can cause deposits to form in the fuel system and en-
gine, resulting in poor starting and poor ac-
celeration.
If these problems occur, you are advised to
add a detergent additive to the gasoline when you refuel the vehicle. The additive
will remove the deposits, thereby returning the engine to a normal condition. Be sure to
use a MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENUINE
FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER. Using an un-
suitable additive could make the engine mal-
function. For details, please contact your MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
l Poor quality petrol can cause problems such
as difficult starting, stalling, engine noise and hesitation. If you experience these prob-lems, try another brand and/or grade of pet-
rol.
If the check engine warning lamp flashes,
have the system checked as soon as possible
at a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point.

2-02OVWX17E1General information2

lWhen any door or the backdoor is
opened, the lamp comes on for approxi- mately 2 minutes.
If all of the doors (including the back-
door) are closed while the lamps are on,
the lamps go off 30 seconds later.NOTEl The lamps go off immediately if any of the
following actions is taken while the lampsare on.
• The ignition switch is turned to the “ON”
position.
• All of the doors (including the backdoor)
are locked using the central door lock function.
• All of the doors (including the backdoor)
are locked using the keyless entry system
(if so equipped).Backdoor
E00301300424WARNINGlIt is dangerous to drive with the backdoor
open since carbon monoxide (CO) gas can
enter the cabin. You cannot see or smell CO. It can cause unconsciousness and
even death.CAUTIONl When the backdoor is open, the rear-right
combination lamp is obscured by the spare wheel.
If the backdoor is opened while the vehicle is parked on the road, alert other road users
to the vehicle’s presence using a warning tri- angle or other device as required by local legislation.
l When closing the backdoor, always ensure
your or other person’s fingers cannot be
caught by the backdoor.NOTEl The backdoor is equipped with an oil damp-
er type backdoor stopper, enabling you to hold the backdoor at a desired position.
l While opening or closing the backdoor, you
may feel slight resistance. This is a structural
feature of the backdoor stopper that supports the backdoor and does not indicate any ab-normality.To lock or unlock from outside

NOTElWhen the engine has not been started within
about 5 seconds after the diesel preheat indi-
cation lamp went out, return the ignition key to the “LOCK” position. Then, turn the key
to the “ON” position to preheat the engine
again.
l When the engine is warm, the diesel preheat
indication lamp does not come on even if the
ignition key is placed in the “ON” position. Start the engine by turning the ignition key
right to the “START” position.
6. Turn the ignition key to the “START”
position without depressing the accelera- tor pedal, and release it when the engine
starts.
Fuel injection amount learning
process (diesel-powered vehi-cles)
E00616000044
To keep exhaust emissions and engine noise low, the engine very occasionally performs a
learning process for the fuel injection
amount.
The engine sounds slightly different from
usual while the learning process is taking place. The change in the engine sound does
not indicate a fault.
NOx trap catalyst
(dieselpowered vehicles)* E00649200020
A NOx (nitrogen oxide) trap catalyst absorbs
the NOx contained in the exhaust gas of the diesel engine.
To maintain the NOx absorbing function, the
fuel is supplied regularly to the catalyst while
driving, and the catalyst reduces NOx to harmless N2 (nitrogen).
The bar graph of momentary fuel consump-
tion in the centre information display and en- gine sound change while NOx is being
purged automatically by the catalyst. These
do not indicate a fault.Diesel particulate filter
(DPF)* E00619801460
The diesel particulate filter (DPF) is a devicethat captures most of the particulate matter
(PM) in the exhaust emissions of the diesel
engine. The DPF automatically burns away trapped PM during vehicle operation. Under
certain driving conditions, however, the DPF is not able to burn away all of the trapped PM
and, as a result, an excessive amount of PM accumulates inside it.
WARNINGl The DPF reaches very high temperatures.
Do not park your vehicle in areas where
combustible materials such as dry grass
or leaves can come in contact with a hot exhaust system since a fire could occur.CAUTIONl Do not use any type of fuel or engine oil that
is not specified for your vehicle. Also, do not use any moisture-removing agent or oth-
er fuel additive. Such substances could have a detrimental effect on the DPF.
Refer to “Fuel selection” on page 2-02 and
“Engine oil” on page 10-04.NOTEl To minimize the likelihood of excessive ac-
cumulation of PM, try to avoid driving for long periods at low speeds and repeatedly
driving short distances, and try to keep high
engine speed driving as much as possible.

14.Check your tyre inflation pressure at the
next gasstation. The correct pressures
are shown on the driver’s door label. See the illustration.
15. On vehicles with tyre pressure monitor-
ing system (TPMS), after filling your tyres to the correct pressure, reset the tyre pressure monitoring system(TPMS).
Refer to “Tyre pressure monitoring sys-
tem (TPMS): Reset of low tyre pressure
warning threshold” on page 6-51.
CAUTIONl After changing the tyre and driving the vehi-
cle about 1,000 km (620 miles), retighten the
wheel nuts to make sure that they have not come loose.
l If the steering wheel vibrates when driving
after changing the tyre, we recommend you to have the tyres checked for balance.CAUTIONl Do not mix one type of tyre with another or
use a different size from the one listed. This
would cause early wear and poor handling.To store the flat tyre or spare
tyre
E00803400192
1. Attach the wheel to the spare wheel
hanger (A) while aligning the holes in
the wheel with the bolts on the spare
wheel hanger.
Using the wheel nut wrench, tighten the spare wheel bolts firmly.

Tightening torque
37 to 54 Nm
(Achieved by applying a force of 140 to
200 N at the end of the wheel nut wrench supplied with the vehicle.)
2. Reverse the opening procedure when
closing the spare wheel garnish.

Tightening torque for spare wheel gar- nish mounting bolt
11 to 25 Nm
(Achieved by applying a force of 40 to
92 N at the end of the wheel nut wrench supplied with the vehicle.)CAUTIONl The spare wheel should always be secured
during vehicle operation. If a flat tyre is changed, put the flat tyre in the spare wheel
mounting position, and use the wheel nut
wrench to secure it firmly.NOTEl Have your damaged tyre repaired as soon as
possible.
