CAUTION

• For petrol-powered vehicles, the use of leaded fuel can result in serious damage to the engine and catalytic converter. Do not use leaded fuel.

• Diesel-powered vehicles are designed to use only diesel fuel that meets the EN 590 standard.

Use of any other type of diesel fuel (bio diesel, methyl ester, etc.) would adversely affect the engine’s performance and durability.

NOTE

•Petrol-powered vehicles have the knock control 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 paraffin, 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 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 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.

Graphical expression for consumer information

Identifier for petrol-type fuels

E5: Petrol fuel containing up to 2.7 % (m/m) oxygen or up to 5.0 % (V/V) ethanol – Eg. EN 228 compliant unleaded petrol

E10: Petrol fuel containing up to 3.7 % (m/m) oxygen or up to 10.0 % (V/V) ethanol

– Eg. EN 228 compliant unleaded petrol

The petrol engine are compatible with E5 type petrol (containing 5 % ethanol) and E10 type petrol (containing 10 % ethanol) conforming to European standards EN 228.

CAUTION

Do not use more than 10 % concentration of 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.

Identifier for diesel-type fuels

B7: Diesel fuel containing up to 7.0 % (V/V) Fatty Acid Methyl Esters – Eg. EN 590 compliant diesel

The diesel engine are compatible with B7 type diesel (containing 7 % fatty acid methyl esters) conforming to European standards EN590.

CAUTION

Do not use more than 7 % concentration of fatty acid methyl esters (bio diesel) by volume.

Use of more than 7 % concentration would adversely affect the engine’s performance and durability.

WARNING

•When handling fuel, comply with the safety regulations displayed by garages and filling stations.

	WARNING
	• Gasoline is highly flammable and explo-
						2
	sive. You could be burned or seriously in-
	jured 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
	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
	(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.
	• 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.
	• If the tank cap must be replaced, use only
	a MITSUBISHI MOTORS genuine part.

Modification/alterations to the electrical or fuel systems

Even when such parts are officially authorized, for example by a “general operators

2permit” (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.
