General information

Fuel selection

E00200102343

Petrol-powered vehicles

Unleaded petrol octane number (EN228)

Recommen95 RON or higher ded fuel

Diesel-powered vehicles

Cetane number (EN590) 51 or higher

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 would adversely affect the engine’s performance and durability.

NOTE

• 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.

•Petrol-powered vehicles have the knock control system so that you can use unleaded petrol 90 RON as an emergency 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.

•Repeatedly driving short distance 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 petrol 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 your 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.

02

Filling the fuel tank

E00200202142

WARNING

• Petrol is highly flammable and explosive.

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-ven- tilated 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, 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 filler until refueling is finished. If you moved away and did something else (for example, cleaning your windscreen) partway through the refueling process, you could pick up a fresh charge of static electricity.

•Be careful not to inhale fuel vapour. Fuel contains toxic substances.

WARNING

•Keep the doors and windows closed while refueling the vehicle. If they were open, fuel vapour could get into the cabin.

Fuel tank capacity

65 litres

Refueling

1.Before filling with fuel, stop the engine.

2.The fuel tank filler is located on the rear left side of your vehicle.

The fuel tank filler door can be opened from inside the vehicle with the fuel tank filler door release lever located below the instrument panel.

General information

3.Open the fuel tank filler tube by slowly turning the cap anticlockwise.

A- Remove

B- Close

03

General information

CAUTION

• Since the fuel system may be under pressure, remove the fuel tank filler tube cap slowly. This relieves any pressure or vacuum that might have built up in the fuel tank. If you hear a hissing sound, wait until it stops before removing the cap. Otherwise, fuel may spray out, injuring you or others.

4.To fill with fuel correctly depends mainly on correct handling of the fuel filler gun. Do not tilt the gun. Insert the gun in the tank port as far as it goes.

CAUTION

•A label which reads “UNLEADED FUEL ONLY” is attached to the fuel tank filler lid of vehicles which can only operate using unleaded petrol. Serious engine and catalytic converter damage will result if leaded petrol is filled into these vehicles, and consequently, this must never be attempted.

5.When the gun stops automatically, do not fill with fuel any more.

CAUTION

• To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do not “top-off” the fuel tank.

6.To close, turn the fuel tank filler tube cap slowly clockwise until you hear clicking sounds, then gently push the fuel tank filler door closed.

CAUTION

• If you need to replace the fuel tank filler tube cap, use only the cap specified for your model vehicle.

Installation of accessories

E00200300745

We recommend you to consult your MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point.

• The installation of accessories, optional parts, etc., should only be carried out within the limits prescribed by law in your country, and in accordance with the guidelines fitting instructions and warnings contained within the documents accompanying the parts or accessories.

• Improper installation of electrical components may cause an electrical fire if incorrectly fitted. Please refer to the Modification/alteration to the electrical or fuel systems section within this owner’s manual.

• Using a cellular phone or radio set inside 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 specifications must not be used.

Refer to the “Specifications” section for information regarding wheel and tyre sizes.

Important points!

Due to the 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 a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point, to check whether the attachment or installation of such parts affects thedriving safety of your MITSUBISHI-ve- hicle.

04

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. Only in the case of parts (MITSUBISHI MOTORS original replacement or exchange parts as well as MITSUBISHI MOTORS genuine accessories) that are recommended and released by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point and that are attached or installed by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point can you assume, that optimal safety has been provided. The same also pertains to modifications of MITSUBISHI vehicles with respect to the production specifications. For your own safety, in such cases as well, you should only undertake modifications according to the recommendations of a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point.

Modification/alterations to the electrical or fuel systems

E00200400238

MITSUBISHI MOTORS 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 MOTORS guidelines.

CAUTION

• If the wiring interferes with any part of the vehicle bodywork or improper installation methods are used, i.e. protective fuses not installed, etc.), electronic devices may be adversely affected, possibly resulting in an electrical fire or other failures that may cause an accident.

General information

Genuine parts

E00200500590

1-02

Electronic immobilizer (Anti-theft starting system)

E00300201553

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 (subject to certain conditions) using a keyless operation system “registered” to the immobilizer system.

NOTE

• In the following cases, the vehicle may not be able to receive the registered ID code from the key. This means the engine will not start even when the registered key is turned to the “START” position.

•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 and turn the key back to the “ACC” or “LOCK” position. Then try again to start the engine. If the engine does not start, we recommend you to contact your MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point.

NOTE

• If you lose your key, order a key from your MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point as soon as possible.

To obtain a replacement or extra spare key, take your vehicle and all remaining keys to your MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point. All the keys have to be re-reg- istered in the immobilizer computer unit. The immobilizer can register up to 8 different keys.

Locking and unlocking

CAUTION

• Don’t make any alterations or additions to the immobilizer system; alterations or additions could cause failure of the immobilizer.
