E00200204393WARNINGlWhen handling fuel, comply with the safe-
ty regulations displayed by garages and
filling stations.
l Gasoline is highly flammable and explo-
sive. You could be burned or seriously in-
jured when handling it. When refueling
your vehicle, always put the operation mode of the power switch in OFF and
keep away from flames, sparks, and smoking materials. Always handle fuel in
well-ventilated outdoor areas.WARNINGl Before removing the fuel cap, be sure to
get rid of your body’s static electricity bytouching a metal part of the car or fuel
pump. Any static electricity on your body could create a spark that ignites fuel va-
pour.
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 perform charging and refueling at
the same time. If you charged with staticelectricity, fuel vapour could be ignited by
the discharge spark.
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 Be careful not to inhale fuel vapour. Fuel
contains toxic substances.
l Keep the doors and windows closed while
refueling the vehicle. If they were open, fuel vapour could get into the cabin.
l If the tank cap must be replaced, use only
a MITSUBISHI MOTORS genuine part.CAUTIONl The fuel in the fuel tank may not be con-
sumed and it may stagnate for a long timeCAUTIONdepending on the use situation of the vehi-cle, the quality of fuel may change, and it
may have a bad influence on the engine or the parts of a fuel system.

Economical drivingE00600102422
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 and acceleration
Avoid driving when the accelerator pedal ispressed way down, such as for unnecessarily sudden starts, acceleration and deceleration.
Smoothly depress the accelerator pedal.
Observe the speed limit and keep the speed
as constant as possible while driving.
Idling
Parking for a long period with the ready indi-
cator illuminated will shorten the cruising
range.
Speed
The higher the vehicle speed, the more drive
battery is consumed. Avoid driving at full speed. Even a slight release of the accelerator
pedal will save a significant amount of drive battery.
Tyre inflation pressure
Check the tyre inflation pressures at regular intervals. Low tyre inflation pressure increa-ses road resistance and fuel consumption. In addition, low tyre pressures adversely affect
tyre wear and driving stability.
Cargo loads
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.
Air conditioning
Too much cooling/heating can affect the cruising range, so maintain an appropriatetemperature to extend the cruising range.
Driving, alcohol and drugs
E00600200070
Driving after drinking alcohol is one of the
most frequent causes of accidents.
Your driving ability can be seriously im- paired even with blood alcohol levels far be-
low the legal minimum. If you have been drinking, don’t drive. Ride with a designated non-drinking driver, call a cab or a friend, or
use public transportation. Drinking coffee or
taking a cold shower will not make you so- ber.
Similarly, prescription and nonprescription
drugs affect your alertness, perception and re- action time. Consult with your doctor or
pharmacist before driving while under the in- fluence of any of these medications.WARNINGl NEVER DRINK AND DRIVE.
Your perceptions are less accurate, your
reflexes are slower and your judgment is impaired.Safe driving techniques
E00600301775
Driving safety and protection against injury
cannot be fully ensured. However, we recom- mend that you pay extra attention to the fol-
