unleaded petrol 95 RON or higher is not available 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 level
is reduced.
Due to the separation of paraffin, the fluidity
l
of the fuel decreases considerably 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 accordance 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 stations.
Repeatedly driving short distances at low
l
speeds can cause deposits to form in the fuel
system and engine, resulting in poor starting
and poor acceleration. If these problems occur, you are advised to add a detergent additive to the gasoline when you refuel the vehicle. The additive will remove the deposits,
thereby returning the engine to a normal condition. Be sure to use a genuine
MITSUBISHI FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER.
Using an unsuitable additive could make the
engine malfunction. For details, please contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point.

General information
Open the fuel tank filler tube by slowly turning the cap anticlockwise.
WARNING
handling fuel, comply with the safe-
When
l
ty regulations displayed by garages and
filling stations.
Gasoline is highly flammable and explo-
l
sive. You could be burned or seriously injured when handling it. When refueling
your vehicle, always turn the engine off
and keep away from flames, sparks, and
smoking materials. Always handle fuel in
well-ventilated outdoor areas.
Before removing the fuel cap, be sure to
l
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.
Perform the whole refueling process
l
(opening the fuel tank filler door, removing 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.
Do not move away from the fuel tank fill-
l
er until refueling is finished. If you
moved away and did something else (for
example, sitting on a seat) part-way
through the refueling process, you could
pick up a fresh charge of static electricity.
If the tank cap must be replaced, use only
l
a MITSUBISHI MOTORS original part.

have built up in the fuel tank. If you hear
a hissing sound from the cap, wait until it
stops before removing the cap. Otherwise, fuel may spray out, injuring you or
others.

Installation of accessories
We
recommend you to consult a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
The installation of accessories, optional
l
parts, etc., should only be carried out within
the limits prescribed by law in your country,
and in accordance with the guidelines and
warnings contained within the documents accompanying this vehicle.
Installing electric components incorrectly
l
could lead to a fire. Please refer to Modification/alteration to the electrical or fuel systems section within this owner’s manual.
Using a cellular phone or radio set inside the
l
vehicle without an external antenna may
cause electrical system interference, which
could lead to unsafe vehicle operation.
Tyres and wheels which do not meet specifi-
l
cations must not be used.
Refer to the “Specifications” section for information regarding wheel and tyre sizes.

Important points!
Due to large number of accessory and replacement
parts of different manufactures available in the market, it is not possible, not only for MITSUBISHI
MOTORS, but also for a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point, to check whether the attachment or installation of such parts affects the
overall safety of your MITSUBISHI-vehicle.
Even when such parts are officially authorized, for
example
praisal for the part) or through the execution of the
part in an officially approved manner of construction, or when a single operation permit following
the attachment or installation of such parts, it cannot be deduced from that alone, that the driving safety of your vehicle has not been affected.
Consider also that there basically exists no liability
on the part of the appraiser or the official. Maximum safety can only be ensured with parts recommended, sold and fitted or installed by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point
(MITSUBISHI MOTORS genuine replacement
parts and MITSUBISHI MOTORS accessories).
The same also pertains to modifications of
MITSUBISHI vehicles with respect to the production specifications. For safety reasons, do not attempt any modifications other than those that follow the recommendations of a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.

Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) system*
This paragraph summarizes the major items of the
Auto
Stop & Go (AS&G) system such as the characteristics, operating procedures, etc. For details,
refer to “Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) system” on
page 4-18.
The Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) system reduces the
emission of exhaust gases and increases fuel efficiency.
The Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) system automatically stops and restarts the engine without the use of
the ignition switch or the engine switch when the
vehicle is stopped, such as at traffic lights or in a
traffic jam.
Activation
The Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) system is automatically activated when the ignition switch is turned to
the
“ON” position or the operation mode is put in
ON.

System characteristics
The principle of the Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) system is that it adapts to the vehicle’s needs (i.e. energy supply). This means that in certain circumstances the engine will not stop and in other circumstances the engine will restart by itself.
Circumstances when the engine will restart by itself

tem]
For information on operations for vehicles equipped with the keyless operation system, refer to
“Keyless operation system: Electronic immobilizer
(Anti-theft starting system)” on page 1-11.
[Except for vehicles equipped with keyless operation system]
The electronic immobilizer is designed to significantly reduce the possibility of vehicle theft. The
purpose of the system is to immobilize the vehicle
if an invalid start is attempted. A valid start attempt
can only be achieved by using a key “registered” to
the immobilizer system.
NOTE
In the following cases, the vehicle may not
l
be able to receive the registered ID code
from the registered key and the engine may
not start.
• When the key contacts a key ring or other
metallic or magnetic object (Type A)
• When the key grip contacts metal of another key (Type B)
• When the key contacts or is close to other
immobilizing keys (including keys of other vehicles) (Type C)
In cases like these, remove the object or
additional key from the vehicle key. Then
try again to start the engine.

and unlock the doors and tailgate, start the engine
and change the operation mode simply by carrying
the keyless operation key with you.
The keyless operation key can also be used as the
keyless entry system remote control switch.
Refer to “Keyless operation system: Keyless entry
system” on page 1-18.
The driver should always carry the keyless operation key. This key is necessary for locking and unlocking the doors and tailgate, starting the engine
and otherwise operating the vehicle, so before locking and leaving the vehicle, be sure to check that
you have the keyless operation key.

The security alarm has four modes:
System preparation mode (approx. 20 seconds)
(The buzzer sounds intermittently and the security
indicator (A) blinks.)
The system preparation time extends from the
at which all of the doors and the tailgate are
point
locked by pressing the LOCK switch on the remote
control switch or the keyless operation function to
the point at which the system armed mode goes into effect.
During this time, it is possible to temporarily open
a door or the tailgate without using the keyless entry system or the keyless operation function and
without causing the alarm to sound (for example,
when you forget something inside the vehicle or realize that a window is open).
System armed mode
(The
security indicator continues to blink with the
indicator’s reduced lit-up duration time.)
Once the system preparation mode has ended, the
system armed mode starts.
If an unlawful opening of any of the doors, tailgate
or bonnet is detected during the system armed
mode, the alarm will be activated to warn people
around the vehicle of an abnormal condition.
Also, if unlawful moving of the vehicle is attempted or a vehicle intrusion is detected, the alarm will
be activated.
Alarm activation
The turn-signal lamps blink and the siren sounds
for approximately 30 seconds.
Refer to “Alarm activation” on page 1-33.
NOTE
The alarm will resume if unlawful actions
l
are taken again, even if the alarm has stopped.
System cancellation
It is possible to cancel the system activation during
the system preparation mode or the system armed
mode.
In addition, it is possible to cancel the alarm once it
has been activated.

never arrange the seats while the vehicle
is being driven or is on an incline. The
seats could move unexpectedly or more
than required and cause a serious accident.
If required, always operate the seating be-
l
fore the vehicle is in motion.
Do not allow anyone to ride in the lug-
l
gage compartment while the vehicle is in
motion. People who are not properly seated and restrained can be seriously injured or killed in an accident.
The luggage compartment in the rear of

l
shoulder and across your chest. Never
put it behind you or under your arm.
One seat belt should be used by only one
l
person. Doing otherwise can be dangerous.
The seat belt will provide its wearer with
l
maximum protection if the recliner seatback is placed in fully upright position.
When the seatback is reclined, there is
greater risk that the passenger will slide
under the belt, especially in a forward impact accident, and may be injured by the
belt or by striking the instrument panel
or seatbacks.
Seat belts should always be worn by ev-
l
ery adult who drives or rides in this vehicle, and by all children who are tall
enough to wear seat belts properly.
Other children should always use proper
child restraint systems.
Remove any twists when using the belt.

made by the user which will either prevent the seat belt adjusting devices from
operating to remove slack, or prevent the
seat belt assembly from being adjusted to
remove slack.
Never hold a child in your arms or on
l
your lap when riding in this vehicle, even
if you are wearing your seat belt. To do
so risks severe or fatal injury to the child
in a collision or sudden stop.

E00406600609
NOTE
Before
l
purchasing a child restraint system,
try installing it in the rear seat to make sure
there is a good fit. Because of the location of
the seat belt buckles and the shape of the seat
cushion, it may be difficult to securely install
some manufacturer’s child restraint systems.
If the child restraint system can be pulled forward or to either side easily on the seat cushion after the seat belt has been tightened,
choose another manufacturer’s child restraint
system.
WARNING
installing a child restraint system,
When
l
refer to the instructions provided by the
manufacturer of the restraint system. Failure to do so can result in severe or fatal
injury to the child.
After installation, push and pull the child
l
restraint system back and forth, and side
to side, to see that it is properly secured.
If the child restraint system is not installed securely, it may cause injury to the
child or other occupants in the case of accident or sudden stops.
When the child restraint system is not in
l
use, keep your child restraint system secured with the seat belt or remove it from
the vehicle in order to prevent it from being thrown around inside the vehicle during an accident.
Depending on the seating position in the vehicle
and the child restraint system that you
have, the child restraint can be attached using one of the following two locations:
2-16
Page 79
• To the lower anchorage in the rear seat

Supplemental restraint system
(SRS) - airbag
The information for SRS airbags includes important information concerning the driver’s and front
passenger’s airbags, the driver’s knee airbag, the
side airbags and the curtain airbags.
The SRS airbags are designed to supplement the primary protection of the driver and front passenger
side seat belt systems by providing those occupants
with protection against head and chest injuries in
certain moderate-to-severe frontal collisions.
The SRS driver’s knee airbag (if so equipped) is designed to supplement the primary protection of the
driver’s seat belt system. It can reduce the forward
movement of the driver’s lower legs and provide increased overall body protection in certain moderateto-severe frontal collisions.
The SRS side airbags (if so equipped) are designed
to supplement properly worn seat belts and provide
the driver and front passenger with protection
against chest and abdomen injuries in certain moderate-to-severe side impact collisions.
The SRS curtain airbags (if so equipped) are designed to supplement properly worn seat belts and
provide the driver and passenger with protection
against head injuries in certain moderate-to-severe
side impact collisions.
The SRS is NOT a substitute for the seat belts. To
ensure the maximum protection during all types of
collisions and accidents, all occupants, including
the passengers as well as the driver, must wear
their seat belts.

ploy if the severity of the impact is above the designed threshold level, comparable to a collision at
approximately 25 km/h (16 mph) when impacting
straight into a solid wall that does not move or deform. If the severity of the impact is below the
above threshold level, the front airbags and driver’s
knee airbag may not deploy. However, this threshold speed will be considerably higher if the vehicle
strikes an object that absorbs the impact by either
deforming or moving (for example, another stationary vehicle, pole or a guard rail).
Because frontal collisions can easily move you out
of position, it is important to always properly wear
your seat belts. Your seat belts will help keep you a
safe distance from the steering wheel and instrument panel during the initial stages of airbag deployment. The initial stage of airbag inflation is the
most forceful, and can possibly cause serious or fatal injuries. Moreover, the seat belts in your vehicle
are your primary means of protection in a collision.
The SRS airbags are designed to provide additional
protection. Therefore, for your safety and the safety of all occupants, be sure to always properly wear
your seat belts.
The front airbags and driver’s knee airbag MAY
NOT DEPLOY when…
With certain types of frontal collisions, the vehicle’s body structure is designed to absorb the shock
to help protect the occupants from harm. (The vehicle body’s front area may deform significantly as it

WARNING
The side airbags and curtain airbags are
l
designed to supplement the driver and passenger seat belts in certain side impacts.
Seat belts should always be worn properly, and the driver and passenger should
sit well back and upright without leaning
against the window or door.
The side airbags and curtain airbags in-
l
flate with great force. The driver and passenger should not put their arms out the
window, and should not lean against the
door, in order to reduce risk of serious or
possible fatal injury from the deploying
side airbags and curtain airbags.
WARNING
Do
not allow any rear seat occupant to
l
hold onto the seatback of either front
seat, in order to reduce risk of injury
from the deploying side airbags. Special
care should be taken with children.
WARNING
Do not place any objects near or in front
l
of the seatback of either front seat. They
could interfere with proper side airbag inflation, and also could cause injury if
thrown free by side airbag deployment.
Do not place stickers, labels or additional
l
trim on the seatback of either front seat.
They could interfere with proper side airbag inflation.
Do not install seat covers on seats with
l
side airbags. Do not re-cover seats that
have side airbags. This could interfere
with proper side airbag inflation.
Do not attach a microphone (A) or any
l
other device or object around the part
where the curtain airbags (B) activate
such as on the windscreen, side door
glass, front and rear pillars and roof side
or assist grips. When the curtain airbags
inflate, the microphone or other device or
object will be hurled with great force or
the curtain airbags may not activate correctly, resulting in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Do not put a hanger or any heavy or poin-
l
ted object on the coat hook. If the curtain
airbag was activated, any such item could
be propelled away with great force and
could prevent the curtain airbag from inflating correctly. Hang clothes directly on
the coat hook (without using a hanger).
Make sure there are no heavy or sharp objects in the pockets of clothes that you
hang on the coat hook.
Never install a rearward facing child re-
l
straint in the front passenger seat. A forward facing child restraint should be
used in the rear seat whenever possible. If
a forward facing child restraint must be
used in the front passenger seat, adjust
the seat to the most rearward position,
and ensure that the child stays in the
child restraint and away from the door.
Do not allow a child to lean against or
l
close to the front door even if the child is
seated in a child restraint system.
The child’s head should also not be
leaned against or be close to the area
where the side airbags and curtain airbags are located. It is dangerous if the
side airbags and curtain airbags inflate.
Failure to follow all of these instructions
could lead to serious or fatal injury to the
child.
We recommend work around and on the
l
side airbags and curtain airbags system
to be done by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.

Improper work on the SRS components
or wiring could result in inadvertent deployment of the airbags, or could render
the SRS inoperative; either situation
could result in serious injury.
E00407901521
WARNING
Do not modify your steering wheel, seat
l
belt retractor or any other SRS components. For example, replacement of the
steering wheel, or modifications to the
front bumper or body structure can adversely affect SRS performance and lead
to possible injury.
If your vehicle has sustained any damage,
l
we recommend you to have the SRS inspected to ensure it is in proper working
order.
On vehicles with the side airbags, do not
l
modify your front seats, centre pillar and
centre console.
It can adversely affect SRS performance
and lead to possible injury.
