Use of gasolines blended with MMT may adversely affect performance, and cause themalfunction indicator on your instrument panel to come on. If this happens, contact an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or arepair facility of your
choice for assistance.
Your vehicle may have
been designed to sat-
isfy California’s low-emission regulations based on clean-burning low-sulfur gasoline.Gasoline sold in parts of the country other than California is allowed to have a higher sulfur content. Using such gasoline couldadversely affect the ve
hicle’s catalytic con-
verter and cause the e
ngine malfunction indi-
cator (“SERVICE ENGINE SOON” or“Check engine light”) to come on. Illumina- tion of this indicator while using high-sulfur gasoline does not necessarily mean the vehi-cle’s emission-control system is malfunction- ing. Your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer may suggest usi
ng a different, lower-
sulfur brand of unleaded gasoline to deter- mine if the problem
is fuel-related.

Sulfur in gasoline
NOTE
Poor-quality gasoline
can cause problems
such as hard starting, stalling during idling,abnormal engine noise
, and poor accelera-
tion. If you experience any of these prob- lems, try using a differ
ent brand of gasoline.
If the engine malfunc
tion indicator (“SER-
VICE ENGINE SOON”
or “Check engine
light”) flashes, have
the vehicle inspected as
soon as possible by the nearest authorizedMitsubishi Motors dealer
or a repair facility
of your choice.  Repeatedly driving short distances at low speeds can cause deposits to form in the fuel system and engine, resulting in hard startingand poor acceleration.
If these problems
occur, you are advised to add a detergent additive to the gasoline when you refuel thevehicle. The additive
will remove the depos-
its, thereby returning the engine to a normal condition. Be sure to use a MitsubishiMotors Genuine cleani
ng additive. Using an
unsuitable additive c
ould make an engine
malfunction. For details,
please contact the
nearest authorized Mits
ubishi Motors dealer.
Filling the fuel tank
WA R N I N GWhen handling fuel, comply with the safety regulations displayed by garages and filling stations.
 Gasoline is highly flammable and explo- sive. You could be burned, seriouslyinjured or killed when handling it. Whenrefueling your vehicle,
always turn the
engine off and keep
away from flames,
sparks, and smoking materials. Alwayshandle fuel in well-ventilated outdoor areas. Before removing the fuel tank filler cap, be sure to get rid of your body’s static electricity by touching a metal part of thecar or fuel pump. Any
static electricity on
your body could create a spark that ignites fuel vapor. Perform the whole
refueling process
(opening the fuel tank filler door, remov-ing the fuel tank filler cap, etc.) by your- self; do not let any other person near the fuel tank filler. If you allowed a person tohelp you and that person was carrying static electricity,
fuel vapor could be
ignited. Do not move away from the fuel tank filler until refueling is fi
nished. If you moved
away and did something
else (for example,
sitting on a seat) part-way through the refueling process, you could pick up afresh charge of st
atic electricity.
Be careful not to inhale fuel vapor. Fuel contains toxic substances. Keep the doors and wi
ndows closed while
refueling the vehicle. If they were open, fuel vapor could get into the cabin.WA R N I N G

the driver and passengers on the front seat and rear outboard seat
with protection against
head injuries by deploying the curtain airbag on the side impacted
in moderate to severe
side impact collisions
and by deploying both
curtain airbags when a rollover is detected. The curtain airbags are also designed to help reduce the risk of comp
lete and partial ejec-
tion from the vehicle through side windows in both side impact a
nd rollover type acci-
dents. The SRS airbags are NOT a substitute for use of the seat belts. For maximum protection in all types of accidents, seat belts mustALWAYS be worn by everyone who drives or rides in this vehicle
(with infants and small
children in an appropriate child restraint sys-tem in the rear seat, and older children buck- led in the rear seat). Refer to “Child restraint systems” on page 4-14.
WA R N I N G IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ALWAYS WEAR YOUR SEAT BELT PROPERLY EVEN WITH AN AIRBAG.
• Seat belts help keep the driver and pas-sengers properly positioned. Thisreduces the risk of injury in all collisions,and reduces the risk of serious injuries or death when the airbags inflate. During sudden braking just before a col-lision, an unrestra
ined or improperly
restrained driver or passengers can move forward into direct contact with, orwithin close proximity to, the airbag when it begins to inflate. The beginning stage of
airbag inflation is
the most forceful and can cause serious injuries or death if the occupant comes in contact with the ai
rbag at this time.
• Seat belts reduce the risk of injury in rear impact collisions, and in lower-speed frontal collisions because the air- bags are not designed
to inflate in those
situations.• Seat belts reduce the risk of beingthrown from your vehi
cle in a collision or
rollover.
 IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO BE PROP- ERLY SEATED.• A driver or front passenger sitting tooclose to the steering wheel or instrument panel during airbag deployment can be seriously inju
red or killed.
WA R N I N G
• Airbags inflate ve
ry quickly and with
great force. If the driver and front pas-senger are not properly seated andrestrained, the airbag may not provide the proper protection, and can cause serious injuries or death when it inflates.• To reduce the risk to the driver of seriousinjury or death
due to a deploying
driver’s airbag, al
ways properly wear
your seat belt and adju
st the driver’s seat
as far back as possible, maintaining aposition that still allows the driver to have good control of the steering wheel, brake, accelerator,
and other vehicle con-
trols.• To reduce the risk to the front passengerof serious injury or
death from a deploy-
ing passenger’s airbag, make sure the passenger always wears the seat beltproperly, remains seat
ed upright and all
the way back in the
seat, and positions
the seat as far back as possible.• Seat all infants and children in the rearseat, properly restrain
ed in an appropri-
ate child restraint system.
 Airbags inflate very
quickly and with
great force. Do not sit on the edge of the seat or sit with your
lower legs too close to
the instrument panel,
or lean your head or
chest close to the steering wheel or the instrument panel. Do not put your feet or legs on or against the instrument panel.WA R N I N G

WA R N I N G Infants and small children should never ride unrestrained,
or lean against the
instrument panel. They should never ride held in your arms or
on your lap. They
can be seriously inju
red or killed in an
accident, especially when the airbags inflate. Seat all infa
nts and children in the
rear seat, properly re
strained in an appro-
priate child restraint system. Refer to “Child restraint systems” on page 4-14.
WA R N I N G NEVER put REAR-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMS or INFANT RESTRAINT SYSTEMS in the front pas- senger seat. This pl
aces the infant too
close to the passenger’s airbag. During deployment of that airbag, the infant can be seriously inju
red or killed.
Rear-facing child restraint systems or infant restraint systems must only be used in the rear seat.
WA R N I N G FRONT-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMS should be used in the rear seatwhenever possible. If they must be used in the front passenger se
at, move the seat to
the most rearward po
sition and make sure
the child stays in the child restraint sys- tem, properly restrained. Failure to follow these instructions could result in seriousinjury or death to the child.Airbag

This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to record, incertain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an airbag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that
will assist in under-
standing how a vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is designed to
record data related to
vehicle dynamics and sa
fety systems for a
short period of time,
typically 30 seconds or
less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:  How various systems in your vehicle were operating;  Whether or not the driver and front pas- senger safety belts
were buckled/fastened;
 How far (if at all) the driver was depress- ing the accelerator and/or brake pedal;and,  How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better under- standing of the circumstances in whichcrashes and injuries occur.
To read data recorded
by an EDR, special
equipment is required, a
nd access to the vehi-
cle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, ot
her parties, such as
law enforcement, that have the special equip-ment, can read the information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.
N00417900223
The driver’s seat posit
ion sensor is attached
to the seat rail and provides the airbag control unit with information
on the seat’s fore-aft
position. The airbag control unit controls deployment of the driver’s front airbag in accordance with the information it receivesfrom this sensor. If there is a problem involving the driver’s seat position sensor, th
e SRS warning light in
the instrument panel will come on. Refer to
“SRS warning light” on page 4-28.

NOTE
 EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no dataare recorded by the EDR under normal driv-ing conditions and no
personal data (e.g.,
name, gender, age, and crash location) are recorded. However, other parties, such aslaw enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquire
d during a crash inves-
tigation.

The front airbags and driver’s knee airbag may deploy if the underside of the vehiclesuffers a moderate to
severe impact (under-
carriage impact). Some
typical situations are
shown in the illustration. Since the front airbags and driver’s knee air- bag may deploy in certain types of unex- pected impacts, as show

and these unexpected
impacts can move you
out of position, it is
important to always wear
your seat belts properly.
When worn properly,
seat belts can help maintain your distance from the airbags when they begin to inflate. The initial stage of airbag inflation is themost forceful and can cause serious injury or death if you are close to the deploying airbag.The front airbags and driver’s knee airbag MAY DEPLOY when …
