fuel
CAUTION
For petrol-powered vehicles, the use of lea-
l
ded fuel can result in serious damage to the
engine and catalytic converter. Do not use
leaded fuel.
Diesel-powered vehicles are designed to use
l
only diesel fuel that meets the EN590 standard.
Use of any other type of diesel fuel (bio diesel, methylester, etc.) would adversely affect
the engine’s performance and durability.
Petrol-powered vehicles
Unleaded petrol octane
number (EN228)
1600 models, 1800 models
95 RON or higher
2000 models
90 RON or higher
Diesel-powered vehicles
Cetane number (EN590)
51 or higher
E00200103076
NOTE
Petrol-powered vehicles have the knock con-
l
trol system so that you can use unleaded petrol 90 RON as an emergent measure in case
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.
For diesel fuel, due to the separation of par-
l
affin, the fluidity 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.
NOTE
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 MITSUBISHI
MOTORS GENUINE FUEL SYSTEM
CLEANER. Using an unsuitable additive
could make the engine malfunction. For details, please contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
Poor quality petrol can cause problems such
l
as difficult starting, stalling, engine noise
and hesitation. If you experience these problems, try another brand and/or grade of petrol.
If the check engine warning lamp flashes,
have the system checked as soon as possible
at a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point.
E10 type petrol
The petrol engines are compatible with
type petrol (containing 10 % ethanol) conforming to European standards EN 228.

Filling the fuel tank
CAUTION
Do not use more than 10 % concentration of
l
ethanol (grain alcohol) by volume.
Use of more than 10 % concentration may
lead to damage to your vehicle fuel system,
engine, engine sensors and exhaust system.
Filling the fuel tank
WARNING
When handling fuel, comply with the safe-
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.
E00200203699
WARNING
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.
Fuel tank capacity
2WD models: 58 litres (For vehicles with vehicle identification numbers that begin with
“4”)
2WD models: 63 litres (For vehicles with vehicle identification numbers that begin with
“J”)
4WD models: 60 litres
NOTE
For the location of the vehicle identification
l
number, refer to “Vehicle identification
number” on page 11-02.
Refueling
1. Before filling with fuel, stop the engine.
2. The fuel tank filler is located on the rear
left side of your vehicle.
Open the fuel tank filler door by pulling
the release lever located on the side of
the driver’s seat.
3. Remove the fuel cap.

General information

Installation of accessories
Open the fuel tank filler tube by slowly
turning the cap anticlockwise.
2
1- Remove
2- Close
4. While filling with fuel, hang the fuel cap
cord on the hook located on the inside of
the fuel tank filler door.
CAUTION
Since the fuel system may be under pressure,
l
remove the fuel cap slowly. This relieves
any pressure or vacuum that might 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.
5. Insert the gun in the tank port as far as it
goes.
CAUTION
Do not tilt the gun.
l
6. When the gun stops automatically, do
not fill with fuel any more.
7. Close the fuel cap.
To close, turn the fuel cap slowly clockwise until you hear clicking sounds, then
gently push the fuel tank filler door
closed.
Installation of accessories
E00200300963
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 incorrect-
l
ly 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
l
the vehicle without an external antenna
may cause electrical system interference,
which could lead to unsafe vehicle operation.
Tyres and wheels which do not meet
l
specifications 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.
2-04
General information
OGAE14E1
Modification/alterations to the electrical or fuel systems
Even when such parts are officially authorized, for example by a “general operators
permit” (an appraisal 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.
Modification/alterations to
the electrical or fuel systems
E00200400368
MITSUBISHI MOTORS CORPORATION
has always manufactured safe, high quality
vehicles. In order to maintain this safety and
quality, it is important that any accessory that
is to be fitted, or any modifications carried
out which involve the electrical or fuel systems, should be carried out in accordance
with MITSUBISHI guidelines.
CAUTION
If the wires interfere with the vehicle body
l
or improper installation methods are used
(protective fuses not included, etc.), electronic devices may be adversely affected, resulting in a fire or other accident.

System characteristics
E00202300055
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
The interior temperature rises and the air
l
conditioning starts operating in order to
lower the temperature.
Electric power consumption is high.
l
The brake pedal is depressed repeatedly.
l
Vehicle speed is 3 km/h (2 mph) or
l
higher when coasting on a slope.
Mode selection dial is set to the demister
l
position.
When the air conditioning is operated by
l
pressing the air conditioning switch.
When the preset temperature of the air
l
conditioning is changed significantly.
When the air conditioning is operated in
l
AUTO mode where the temperature control dial is set to the max. hot or the max.
cool position (for vehicles with automatic air conditioning).
Other than the conditions mentioned above,
the engine may restart automatically. For details, refer to “Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) system” on page 6-18.
E00202400027
Circumstances when the engine will not stop
