Fuel selectionE00200105096Recommended fuel
Cetane number (EN
590) 51 or higherCAUTIONlYour vehicle is designed to use only diesel
fuel that meets the EN590 standard.
Use of any other type of diesel fuel (bio die-
sel, methylester, etc.) would adversely affect
the engine’s performance and durability.
l If proper “winter” fuel is not used in winter,
the diesel preheat indication lamp may blink and the engine speed may not rise above theidling speed because of fuel freezing. In this
case, keep the engine idling for approxi- mately 10 minutes, then turn off the ignition
switch or put the operation mode in OFF and immediately turn it on or put in ON again to
confirm that the diesel preheat indication lamp is off. (Refer to “Diesel preheat indica-
tion lamp” on page 5-14)NOTEl 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.
l Poor-quality diesel fuel can cause deposits to
form in the injector, resulting in black smoke and rough idling.
If these problems occur, you are advised to
add a cleaning additive to the diesel fuel when you refuel the vehicle.
The additive will break up and remove the
deposits, thereby returning the engine to a normal condition.
Be sure to use a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
GENUINE DIESEL FUEL SYSTEM
CLEANER. Using an unsuitable additive could make the engine malfunction. For de-
tails, please contact your MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.Graphical expression for con-
sumer information
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.
CAUTIONl Do not use more than 7 % concentration of
fatty acid methyl esters (bio diesel) by vol-
ume.
Use of more than 7 % concentration would adversely affect the engine’s performance
and durability.
