Filling the fuel tank 3-4 General information
3
All-wheel drive vehicles: 15.8 gal (60 L) Front-wheel drive vehi 
cles: 16.6 gal (63 L) 
1. Before filling with fuel, stop the engine. 2. The fuel tank filler is located on the rear driver side of your vehicle. The fuel tank filler door can be openedfrom inside the vehicle with the fuel tank filler door release lever located at the left side of the driver’s seat. 
3. Open the fuel tank filler pipe by slowly turning the fuel tank filler cap counter-clockwise.
 Before removing the fuel tank filler cap, be sure to get rid of your body’s staticelectricity 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 cap, etc.) by yourself; do not let any other  
person near the fuel tank 
filler. If you allowed  
a person to help you 
and that person was ca 
rrying static elec- 
tricity, 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 somethin 
g else (for example, 
sitting on a seat) part-way through the refueling process, you could pick up a fresh 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 ge 
t into the cabin.

Refueling 
1- Remove 2- CloseWA R N I N G Since the fuel system may be under pres- sure, remove the fuel tank filler capslowly. This relieves  
any pressure or vac- 
uum that might have built up in the fuel tank. If the cap is venting vapor or if youhear a hissing sound, wait until the sound stops before removing the cap. Otherwise, fuel may spray out, in 
juring you or others.

Your vehicle has seat  
belts and other safety 
features that help protect you and your pas- sengers in an accident.Seat belts are the most important safety device. When worn properly, seat belts can reduce the chance of serious injury or deathin various types of crashes. For added protec- tion during a severe fr 
ontal collision, your 
vehicle has a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) with airbags for the driver and passen- gers. The seats, head restraints, and doorlocks also are safety equipment, which must be used correctly. Always check the following before you drive: That everyone in your vehicle is properly wearing their seat belt. That infants and small children are prop- erly secured in an appropriate child restraint system in the rear seat. That all doors are fully closed and locked.  That seatbacks are upright, with head restraints properly adjusted. 
Safety equipment cannot prevent injury or death in all motor ve 
hicle accidents. How- 
ever, you can help reduce the risk of injury or death, by following the instructions in thismanual.

Position the driver’s seat 
 as far back as possi- 
ble while maintaining a position that stillenables you to fully apply the pedals, easily control the steering wh 
eel and safely operate 
the vehicle.
Seats and restraint systems 
WA R N I N G Do not place objects under the seats. This could prevent the seat from lockingsecurely, and it could  
lead to an accident. 
It may also cause damage to the seat or other parts.
Front seats 
WA R N I N G Do not attempt to adjust the seat while driving. This can cause loss of vehicle con- trol and result  
in an accident.
Manual seat  adjustment 
Power seat  adjustment
After adjusting the seat, make sure that it is securely locked into position. To reduce the risk to the driver of serious injury or death duri 
ng deployment of the 
driver’s airbag, always 
 properly wear the 
seat belt and adjust th 
e driver’s seat as far 
back as possible while maintaining a posi- tion that still enables  
you to fully apply the 
pedals, easily control the steering wheel, and safely operate the vehicle. To reduce the risk to the front passenger of serious injury or 
 death during deploy- 
ment of the passeng 
er’s airbag, always 
properly wear the seat 
 belt and adjust the 
front passenger’s seat as far back as possi- ble. Always place childr
en 12 years old and 
under in the rear seat 
 and use appropriate 
child restraint systems.CAUTION Make sure that the seat is adjusted by an adult. If it is adjusted by a child, an unex- pected accident might occur. Do not place a cushion 
or the like between 
your back and the seatback while driving. The effectiveness of the head restraints will be reduced in the event of an accident. When sliding the seat
s, be careful not to 
catch your hand or leg.WA R N I N G

The curtain airbags are contained in the front pillar, the rear pillar and the side sections of the roof.The curtain airbag is designed to inflate only on the side of the ve 
hicle that is impacted, 
even with no passenger in the seat.Also, when the airbag control unit detects rollover of the vehicle, the curtain airbags will deploy.Curtain airbag system 
WA R N I N G The side airbags and 
curtain airbags can 
cause serious injury  
or death to anyone 
too close to the airb 
ag when it deploys. To 
reduce the risk of in 
jury from a deploying 
side airbag or curtai 
n airbag, dr
iver and 
front passenger must be properlyrestrained and seated well back, upright, and in the middle of  
the seat. Do not lean 
against the door.WA R N I N G In order to reduce the risk of injury from a deploying side airb 
ag, do not allow any 
second row seat passengers to hold onto the back of either front seat. Special careshould be taken with children.
 Do not place any objects around the area where the side airbags deploy. Suchobjects can interfere with proper side air-bag deployment, and  
cause injury during 
deployment of the side airbag. Do not place stickers, labels or additional trim on the back of either front seat. They can interfere with proper side airbagdeployment. Do not attach a microphone (A) or any other object around the part where the curtain airbag (B) depl 
oys, such as on the 
windshield, side door glass or front andrear pillars and roof  
side rail. When the 
curtain airbag inflates 
, the microphone or 
other object may be  
hurled with great 
force or the curtain airbag may not inflate correctly, resulting in death or serious injury.WA R N I N G

N00408201591
The side airbag and curtain airbag are designed to deploy when the vehicle suffers a moderate to seve 
re side impact to the middle 
of the passenger compartment.Also when the vehicle  
detects rollover of the 
vehicle, the curtain airbags will deploy. Typical situations are shown in the illustra-tion.
WA R N I N G Do not put a hanger or any heavy or pointed object on the coat hook. If the cur-tain airbag was activated, any such itemcould be propelled aw 
ay with great force 
and could prevent th 
e curtain airbag from 
inflating correctly. Hang clothes directlyon the coat hook (without using a hanger). Make sure there are no heavy or sharp objects in the pocket 
s of clothes that you 
hang on the coat hook. Do not install seat cove
rs or re-cover seats 
that have side airbag 
s. Covers can inter- 
fere with proper si 
de airbag deployment 
and adversely affect  
side airbag perfor- 
mance. Never install a rear-facing child restraint system in the front passenger seat. Rear- facing child restraint systems MUST ONLY be used in the rear seat. Front-facing child restraint systems should also be used ON 
LY in the rear seat. 
If a front-facing child restraint system must be used in the front passenger seat, move the seat as far back as possible, andmake sure that the child stays in the child restraint system, properly restrained and away from the door.
 Do not allow a child to lean against or sit close to the passenger door, even if thechild is seated in a child restraint system.The child’s head should also not lean against or be close to the section of the seatback where the side airbag and cur-tain airbag are located. It is dangerous if the side airbag or cu 
rtain airbag deploys. 
Failure to follow all of these instructionscould lead to serious in 
jury or death to the 
child. Work done on or in th
e vicinity of the side 
airbag or curtain  
airbag components 
should be done only  
by an authorized Mit- 
subishi Motors dealer. There is a risk of a serious injury or death. Improper work methods can cause acci 
dental side airbag 
or curtain airbag depl 
oyment, or render a 
side airbag or curtai 
n airbag inoperable. 
Either of these situations could result inserious injury or death.WA R N I N G
Deployment of side airbag and  curtain airbag The side airbag and curtain airbag  ARE DESIGNED TO DEPLOY  when... Moderate to severe impact to the middle of the  vehicle body’s side structure When the vehicle detects rollover of the vehicle  (Curtain airbag only)
