Petrol-powered vehicles Unleaded petrol octanenumber (EN228) 1600 models95 RON or higher
2000 models 90 RON or higher
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 (bio die-
sel, methyl ester, etc.) would adversely af- fect the engine’s performance and durability.NOTEl Petrol-powered vehicles have the knock con-
trol system so that you can use unleaded pet-
rol 90 RON as an emergent measure in case unleaded petrol 95 RON or higher is notavailable on journey, etc.
In such a case, you don’t need to adjust the
engine specially. In case of using unleaded petrol 90 RON, the engine performance lev-
el is reduced.
l 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.NOTEl Repeatedly driving short distances at low
speeds can cause deposits to form in the fuel system and engine, resulting in poor starting
and poor acceleration. If these problems oc-
cur, you are advised to add a detergent addi- tive to the gasoline when you refuel the ve- hicle. 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 unsuitable additive
could make the engine malfunction. For de- tails, please contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service 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.

Identifier for petrol-type fuels
E5: Petrol fuel containing up to 2.7 % (m/m) oxygen or up to 5.0 % (V/V) ethanol – Eg.
EN 228 compliant unleaded petrol
E10: Petrol fuel containing up to 3.7 % (m/m) oxygen or up to 10.0 % (V/V) ethanol
– Eg. EN 228 compliant unleaded petrol
The petrol engine are compatible with E5
type petrol (containing 5 % ethanol) and E10 type petrol (containing 10 % ethanol) con-forming to European standards EN 228.
CAUTIONDo not use more than 10 % concentration of etha- nol (grain alcohol) by volume.
Use of more than 10 % concentration may lead to damage to your vehicle fuel system, engine, en-
gine sensors and exhaust system.Identifier for diesel-type fuels
B7: Diesel fuel containing up to 7.0 % (V/V)
Fatty Acid Methyl Esters – Eg. EN 590 com-pliant diesel
The diesel engine are compatible with B7
type diesel (containing 7 % fatty acid methyl
esters) conforming to European standards EN590.
CAUTIONDo not use more than 7 % concentration of fatty acid methyl esters (bio diesel) by volume.
Use of more than 7 % concentration would ad-
versely affect the engine’s performance and dura- bility.Filling the fuel tank
E00200204289WARNINGlWhen handling fuel, comply with the safe-
ty regulations displayed by garages and
filling stations.WARNINGl Gasoline is highly flammable and explo-
sive. You could be burned or seriously in-
jured when handling it. When refueling
your vehicle, always turn the engine off and keep away from flames, sparks, andsmoking 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 car or the 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 If the tank cap must be replaced, use only
a MITSUBISHI MOTORS genuine part.

tive effects on human health and the environment which could otherwise arise frominappropriate waste handling.Auto Stop & Go (AS&G)
system* E00201501057This paragraph summarizes the major itemsof the Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) system
such as the characteristics, operating proce- dures, etc. For details, refer to “Auto Stop &
Go (AS&G) system” on page 6-19.
The AS&G system reduces the emission of
exhaust gases and increases fuel efficiency. The AS&G system automatically stops and restarts the engine without the use of the igni-tion switch or the engine switch when the ve-
hicle is stopped, such as at traffic lights or in
a traffic jam.
Activation
E00201601061
The AS&G system is automatically activated when the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position or the operation mode is put in
ON.
Deactivation
E00201701091
You can deactivate the system by pressing
the “AS&G OFF” switch. Then the “
” dis-
play/indicator will turn on.

(Achieved by applying force of 350 to
420 N at end of wheel nut wrench sup- plied with vehicle)CAUTIONl Never use your foot or a pipe extension for
extra force in the wheel nut wrench. If you
do so, you will tighten the nut too much.
10. If the vehicle has a wheel cover, install
it.
Refer to “Wheel covers” on page 8-20.
11. Lower and remove the jack, then store
the jack, flat tyre, and chocks. Have your
damaged tyre repaired as soon as possi- ble.
12. Check your tyre inflation pressure at the
next gasstation. The correct tyre pres-
sures are shown on the driver’s door la- bel. See the illustration.
CAUTIONl The temporary spare wheel is to be used on-
ly temporarily when the standard wheel isdamaged. Repair the damaged tyre as soon
as possible and use it to replace the tempora- ry spare tyre.
l 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.
l 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
wheel

1. Lift up the luggage floor board.
2. Store the flat tyre or the spare wheel un-
der the luggage floor board. To store the
flat tyre or spare wheel, fit the installa-
tion clamp (A) by turning it clockwise,
and then install the spare tyre pad (B).NOTEl On vehicles with a
T155/90D16 size spare
wheel, the clamp cannot be used for a nor-
mal size tyre.
3. Have your damaged tyre repaired as
soon as possible.

Catalytic converterE01000202642
The exhaust gas scavenging devices used with the catalytic converter are extremely ef- ficient for the reduction of noxious gases.
The catalytic converter is installed in the ex- haust system.
It is important to keep the engine properly
tuned to ensure proper catalyst operation and prevent possible catalyst damage.WARNINGl As with any vehicle, do not park or oper-
ate this vehicle in areas where combusti- ble materials such as dry grass or leaves
can come in contact with a hot exhaust
since a fire could occur.
l Paint should not be applied to the catalyt-
ic converter.NOTEl Use fuel of the type recommended in
“Fuel
