3.Open the fuel tank filler tube by slowly
turning the cap anticlockwise.
A- Remove B- Close
CAUTIONl Since the fuel system may be under pressure,
remove the fuel tank filler tube 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 be- fore removing the cap. Otherwise, fuel may
spray out, injuring you or others.
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. To close, turn the fuel tank filler tube
cap slowly clockwise until you hear clicking sounds, then gently push the
fuel tank filler door closed.Installation of accessories
E00200302345
We recommend you to consult yourMITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point.
CAUTIONl Your 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 ve- hicle 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, should only be carried out within
the limits prescribed by law in your
country, and in accordance with the guidelines fitting instructions and warn-
ings contained within the documents ac-
companying the parts or accessories.
l Improper installation of electrical com-
ponents may cause an electrical fire if
incorrectly fitted. Please refer to the Modification/alteration to the electrical
or fuel systems section within this own-
er’s manual.
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.

Economical drivingE00600100561
For economical driving, there are some tech- nical requirements that have to be met. Theprerequisite for low fuel consumption is a
properly adjusted engine. In order to achieve longer life of the vehicle and the most eco- nomical operation, we recommend you tohave the vehicle checked at regular intervals in accordance with the service standards.
Fuel economy and generation of exhaust gas
and noise are highly influenced by personal
driving habits as well as the particular operat- ing conditions. The following points shouldbe observed in order to minimize wear of
brakes, tyres and engine as well as to reduce
environmental pollution.
Starting
Avoid rapid acceleration and sudden starts;
such operation will result in higher fuel con-
sumption.
Shifting
Shift only at an appropriate speed and engine speed. Always use the highest gear possible.
The transfer shift lever should be set to “2H” when driving on normal roads and express
ways to obtain best possible fuel economy.
City traffic
Frequent starting and stopping increases the
average fuel consumption. Use roads with smooth traffic flow whenever possible. When driving on congested roads, avoid use of a
low gear at high engine speeds.
Idling
The vehicle consumes fuel even during
idling. Avoid extended idling whenever pos- sible.
Speed
At higher vehicle speed, more fuel is con-
sumed. Avoid driving at full speed. Even a
slight release of the accelerator pedal will save a significant amount of fuel.
Tyre inflation pressure
Check the tyre inflation pressures at regularintervals. Low tyre inflation pressure increa-ses road resistance and fuel consumption. In addition, low tyre pressures adversely affect
tyre wear and driving stability.
Load
Do not drive with unnecessary articles in the
luggage compartment. Especially during city
driving where frequent starting and stopping is necessary, the increased weight of the ve-
hicle will greatly affect fuel consumption. Al- so avoid driving with unnecessary luggage or carriers, etc., on the roof; the increased air re- sistance will increase fuel consumption.
Cold engine starting
Starting of a cold engine consumes more fuel.
Unnecessary fuel consumption is also caused by keeping a hot engine running. After the
engine is started, commence driving as soon
as possible.
Air conditioning
The use of the air conditioning will increase the fuel consumption.
Driving, alcohol and drugs
E00600200067
Driving after drinking alcohol is one of the
most frequent causes of accidents.
