Fuel selection

Recom­mended fuel
Unleaded petrol octane number (EN228)
2000 and 2400 models
[Except for vehicles for Russia, Kazakhstan, Be­larus, Ukraine and Mol­dova]
95 RON or higher [Vehicles for Russia, Ka­zakhstan, Belarus, Uk­raine and Moldova]
90 RON or higher
3000 models
95 RON or higher
CAUTION
l
The use of leaded fuel can result in serious damage to the engine and catalytic convert­er. Do not use leaded fuel.
NOTE
l
Your 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.
l
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 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 MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENUINE FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER. Using an unsuitable additive could make the engine malfunction. For de­tails, please contact your MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
l
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.

Filling the fuel tank

WARNING
l
When handling fuel, comply with the safe­ty regulations displayed by garages and filling stations.
l
Gasoline 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-ventilated outdoor areas.
l
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 fuel pump. Any static electricity on your body could create a spark that ignites fuel va­pour.
l
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.
l
Do not move away from the fuel tank fill­er 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.
l
If the tank cap must be replaced, use only a MITSUBISHI MOTORS genuine part.
Fuel tank capacity
2WD models: 63 litres 4WD models: 60 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. Open the fuel tank filler door by pulling the release lever located on the side of the driver’s seat.
3. Open the fuel tank filler tube by slowly turning the cap anticlockwise.
1- Remove 2- Close
CAUTION
l
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.

NOTE
l
While filling with fuel, hang the fuel cap on the hook (A) located on the inside of the fuel tank filler door.
4. Insert the gun in the tank port as far as it goes.
CAUTION
l
Do not tilt the gun.
5. When the gun stops automatically, do not fill with fuel any more.
6. 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

We recommend you to consult your MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
CAUTION
l
Your vehicle is equipped with a diagnosis connector for checking and servicing the electronic control system. Do not connect a device other than a diagno­sis tool for inspections and service to this connector. Otherwise, the battery could be discharged, the electronic devices of the ve­hicle could malfunction, or other unexpected problems could result. In addition, malfunctions caused by connect­ing a device other than a diagnosis tool may not be covered under warranty.
l
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 and warnings contained with­in the documents accompanying this ve­hicle.
l
Installing electric components incorrect­ly could lead to a fire. See to the “Modi­fication/alteration to the electrical or fuel systems” section within this owner’s manual.
l
When installing the radio, for the re­quired information (frequency, transmis­sion output, installing procedure), con­sult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author­ized Service Point. If the frequency, transmission output and installing condition are not appropriate, it can adversely affect the electronic de­vices and could lead to unsafe vehicle operation.
l
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.
l
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 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 vehicle.

Protect the environment
It is illegal to pollute drains, water courses and soil. Use authorized waste collection fa­cilities, including civic amenity sites and ga­rages providing facilities for disposal of used oil and used oil filters. If in doubt, contact your local authority for advice on disposal.

Disposal information for used batteries

Your vehicle contains batter­ies and/or accumulators. Do not mix with general household waste. For proper treatment, recov­ery and recycling of used bat­teries, please take them to ap­plicable collection points, in accordance with your nation­al legislation and the Direc­tives 2006/66/EC. By disposing of these batter­ies correctly, you will help to save valuable resources and prevent any potential nega­tive effects on human health and the environment which could otherwise arise from inappropriate waste handling.

Event Data Recording

This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an airbag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in under­standing how a vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:
l
How various systems in your vehicle were operating;
l
How far (if at all) the driver was de­pressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,
l
How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better under­standing of the circumstances in which crash­es and injuries occur.
NOTE
l
EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no da­ta are recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash inves­tigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehi­cle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as law enforcement, that have the special equip­ment, can read the information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.

WARNING
l
When using electro-medical devices other than implantable cardiac pacemakers or implantable cardiovascular-defibrillators, contact the electromedical device manu­facturer ahead of time to determine the affects of radio waves on the devices. Elec­tromedical device operations could be ad­versely effected by radio waves.
You can limit the possible operations of the keyless operation system in the following ways. (The keyless operation system can be used as a keyless entry system.) Consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
l
You can limit operations to locking and unlocking the doors and tailgate.
l
You can limit operations to starting the engine.
l
The keyless operation system can be dis­abled.
NOTE
l
The keyless operation key uses an ultra­weak electromagnetic wave. In the following cases, the keyless operation system may not operate properly or may be unstable.
•
When there is equipment nearby that emits strong radio waves, such as: a pow­er station, a radio/TV broadcasting station or an airport.
NOTE
•
The keyless operation system is carried together with a communications device such as a cellular phone or radio set, or with an electronic device such as a per­sonal computer.
•
The keyless operation key is touching or covered by a metal object.
•
A keyless entry system is being used nearby.
•
When the keyless operation key battery is worn out.
•
When the keyless operation key is placed in an area with strong radio waves or noise. In such cases, use the emergency key. Refer to “To operate without using the keyless operation function” on page 3-20.
l
Because the keyless operation key receives signals in order to communicate with the transmitters in the vehicle, the battery con­tinually wears down regardless of keyless operation key use. The battery life is 1 to 3 years, depending on usage conditions. When the battery wears out, replace the battery ac­cording to the description in this manual or have it replaced at your MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point. Refer to “Procedure for replacing the remote control switch battery” on page 3-07.
NOTE
l
Because the keyless operation key continual­ly receives signals, strong radio wave recep­tion could affect battery wear. Do not leave the key near a TV, personal computer, or other electronic device.
Operating range of the keyless operation system
If you are carrying the keyless operation key, enter the operating range of the keyless oper­ation system, and press the driver’s or front passenger’s door lock/unlock switch, the tail­gate LOCK switch or the tailgate open switch, the ID code for your key is verified. You can only lock and unlock the doors and tailgate and start the engine only if the ID co­des of your keyless operation key and the ve­hicle match.

Do not put head, hands or anything else out of the sunroof opening while driving the vehicle.
l
Never leave a child (or other person who might not be capable of safe operation of the sunroof switch) in the vehicle alone.
l
Before operating the sunroof, make sure that nothing is capable of being trapped (head, hand, finger, etc.).
Safety mechanism
If a hand or head is trapped in the closing sunroof, it will reopen automatically. Nonetheless, make sure that nobody puts their head or hand out of the sunroof when opening or closing.
The opened sunroof will become operational after a few seconds.
CAUTION
l
The safety mechanism is cancelled just be­fore the sunroof is fully closed. This allows the sunroof to close completely. Therefore be especially careful that no fin­gers are trapped in the sunroof.
NOTE
l
The safety mechanism can be activated if the driving conditions or other circumstances cause the sunroof to be subjected to a physi­cal shock similar to that caused by a trapped hand or head.
If the safety mechanism should be activated 5 or more times consecutively, normal closing of the sunroof will be aborted. As an emergency measure, the sunroof can be closed bit by bit until the sunroof is com­pletely closed by repeatedly pressing switch (2). After that, the sunroof can be set the initial­ized state in the following procedure.
1. Move the sunroof in slide open position.
2. Press the tilt up switch (2) continually in 10 seconds.
3. The sunroof will be moved to tilt up po­sition automatically bit by bit.
4. The initialize is completed when the sunroof is stopped at tilt up position.
If the sunroof does not return to normal, con­sult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
Sunshade
Slide the sunshade manually to open and close it.
CAUTION
l
Be careful that hands are not trapped when closing the sunshade.
NOTE
l
Be sure to tilt down the sunroof before clos­ing the sunshade.

NOTE
l
The sunshade cannot be closed with the sun­roof opened.
l
The sunroof stops just before reaching the fully open position. If the vehicle is driven with the sunroof in this position, wind throb is lower than with the sunroof fully open.
l
If you are going to leave the vehicle unatten­ded, always close the sunroof and take the key with you.
l
Do not try to operate the sunroof if it is fro­zen closed (after snow fall or during extreme cold).
l
Do not sit or place heavy luggage on the sunroof or roof opening edge.
l
Release the switch as soon as the sunroof reaches the fully open or fully closed posi­tion.
l
If the sunroof does not operate when the sunroof switch is operated, release the switch and check whether something is trap­ped by the sunroof. If nothing is trapped, we recommend you to have the sunroof checked.
l
Depending on the model of ski carriers or roof carriers, the sunroof may contact with the carrier when the sunroof is tilted up. Be careful when tilting up the sunroof if such a ski carrier or a roof carrier is installed.
l
Be sure to close the sunroof completely when washing the vehicle or when leaving the vehicle.
NOTE
l
Be careful, not to put any wax on the weath­erstrip (black rubber) around the sunroof opening. If stained with wax, the weather­strip cannot maintain a weatherproof seal with the sunroof.
l
After washing the vehicle or after it has rained, wipe off any water that is on the sun­roof before operating it.
l
Operating the sunroof repeatedly with the engine stationary will run down the battery. Operate the sunroof while the engine is run­ning.

Seat adjustment

Adjust the driver’s seat so that you are com­fortable and that you can reach the pedals, steering wheel, switches etc. while retaining a clear field of vision.
WARNING
l
Do not attempt to adjust the seat while driving. This can cause loss of vehicle con­trol and result in an accident. After ad­justments are made, ensure the seating is locked in position by attempting to move the seat forward and rearward without using the adjusting mechanism.
l
Do not allow people or children to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equip­ped with seats and seat belts, and make sure that everyone travelling in your vehi­cle is in a seat and wearing a seat belt, or in the case of a child is strapped in a child restraint.
l
To minimize the risk of personal injury in the event of a collision or sudden braking, the seatbacks should always be in the al­most upright position while the vehicle is in motion. The protection provided by the seat belts may be reduced significantly when the seatback is reclined. There is greater risk that the passenger will slide under the seat belt, resulting in serious in­jury, when the seatback is reclined.
WARNING
l
Do not place objects under the seats. This could prevent the seat from locking se­curely, and it could lead to an accident. It may also cause damage to the seat or other parts.
CAUTION
l
Make sure the seat is adjusted by an adult or with adult supervision for correct and safe operation.
l
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.
l
The reclining mechanism of the front seat’s seatback is spring loaded, causing it to return to the vertical position when the lock lever is operated. When using the lever, sit close to the seatback or hold it with your hand to control its return motion.
l
When sliding the seats, be careful not to catch your hand or foot.
l
When adjusting the front seat while the sec­ond seat is folded, be careful not to apply strong force to the flipped second seat cush­ion. Doing so could cause damage to the cover of the front seat and the fitting of the second seat cushion.

Seat belts

To protect you and your passengers in the event of an accident, it is most important that the seat belts are worn correctly while driv­ing. The front seat belts have a pretensioner sys­tem. These belts are used the same way as a conventional seat belt. Refer to “Seat belt pretensioner system and force limiter system” on page 4-17.
WARNING
l
Seat belts should always be worn by every 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.
l
Always place the shoulder belt over your shoulder and across your chest. Never put it behind you or under your arm.
l
One seat belt should be used by only one person. Doing otherwise can be danger­ous.

WARNING
l
The seat belt will provide its wearer with 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.
l
Remove any twists when using the belt.
l
No modifications or additions should be 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.
l
Never hold a child in your arms or on 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.
l
Always adjust the belt to a snug fit.
l
Always wear the lap portion of the belt over your hips.
3-point type seat belt (with emergency locking mechanism)
This type of belt requires no length adjust­ment. Once worn, the belt adjusts itself to the movement of the wearer, but in the event of a sudden or strong shock, the belt automatical­ly locks to hold the wearer’s body.
NOTE
l
You can check if the belt locks by pulling it forward quickly.
l
If the seat belt buckles in the second seating position are not found, you will find them under the second seat cushion. Refer to “Folding the second seats” on page 4-08 for putting the seat belt buckles at the proper position.
To fasten
1. Pull the seat belt out slowly while hold­ing the latch plate.
NOTE
l
When the seat belts cannot be pulled out in a locked condition, pull the belts once force­fully and then return them. After that, pull the belts out slowly once again.

Pregnant women restraint

WARNING
l
Seat belts work for everyone, including pregnant women. Pregnant women should use the available seat belts. This will re­duce the likelihood of injury to both the woman and the unborn child. The lap belt should be worn across the thighs and as snug against the hips as possible, but not across the waist. Consult your doctor if you have any additional questions or con­cerns.

Seat belt pretensioner system and force limiter system

The driver’s seat and front passenger’s seat each have a seat belt equipped with a preten­sioner system and force limiter system.
Pretensioner system
When the ignition switch or the operation mode is under the following conditions, if there is a frontal impact or a side impact (ve­hicles equipped with SRS side airbags and SRS curtain airbags) severe enough to injure the driver and/or front passenger, the preten­sioner system will retract their respective seat belts instantaneously, thus maximizing the seat belt’s effectiveness. [Except vehicles equipped with keyless oper­ation system] The ignition switch is in the “ON” or “START” position. [Vehicles equipped with keyless operation system] The operation mode is in ON. On vehicles equipped with the ERA-GLO­NASS, the pre-tensioner system will operate even when a rollover or overturning of the vehicle is detected.
WARNING
l
To obtain the best results from your pre­tensioner seat belt, make sure you have adjusted your seat correctly and wear your seat belt properly.
CAUTION
l
Installation of audio equipment or repairs in the vicinity of the pretensioner seat belts or floor console must be performed in line with MITSUBISHI MOTORS guidelines. It is important to do so because the work could affect the pretensioner systems.
l
If you need to scrap the vehicle, please con­sult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point. It is important to do so because unexpected activation of the pretensioner seat belts could cause injuries.
NOTE
l
The pretensioner seat belts will be activated if the vehicle suffers a severe impact, even if the seat belts are not worn.
l
The pretensioner seat belts are designed to work only once. After the pretensioner seat belts have been activated, we recommend you have it replaced by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
SRS warning
The same warning lamp/display is shared by the SRS airbags and the pretensioner seat belts. Refer to “SRS warning lamp/display” on page 4-38.

Force limiter system
In the event of a collision, each force limiter system will effectively absorb the load ap­plied to the seat belt to minimize the impact to the passenger.

Child restraint

When transporting children in your vehicle, some type of child restraint system should al­ways be used according to the size of the child. This is required by law in most coun­tries. The regulations concerning driving with chil­dren in the front seat may differ from country to country. You are advised to comply with the relevant regulations.
WARNING
l
When possible, put children in the rear seat. Accident statistics indicate that chil­dren of all sizes and ages are safer when properly restrained in the rear seat rather than in the front seat.
l
Holding a child in your arms is no substi­tute for a restraint system. Failure to use a proper restraint system can result in se­vere or fatal injury to the child.
l
Each child restraint device or fixing is to be used only by one child.
WARNING
l
When attaching a child restraint system to the rear seat, prevent the front seat­backs from touching the child restraint system. Otherwise, the child could be seriously in­jured in the event of hard braking or a collision.
Caution for installing the child restraint on vehicles with front passenger’s airbag
The label shown here is attached on vehicles with a front passenger’s airbag.
WARNING
l
Extreme Hazard! NEVER use a rearward facing child re­straint on a seat protected by an ACTIVE AIRBAG in front of it, DEATH or SERI­OUS INJURY to the CHILD can occur.

WARNING
l
A REARWARD FACING CHILD RE­STRAINT must NOT be used in the front passenger seat if the front passenger’s air­bag has not been deactivated. The force of an inflating airbag could kill or cause se­rious injuries to the child. A rearward facing child restraint should be used in the rear seat.
l
A FORWARD FACING CHILD RE­STRAINT should be used in the rear seat whenever possible; if it must be used in the front passenger seat, turn off the front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch. Failure to do so could kill or cause serious injuries to the child.
Infants and small children
When transporting infants and small children in your vehicle, follow the instruction given below.
Instruction:
l
For small infants, an infant carrier should be used. For small children whose height when seated allows the shoulder belt to lie in contact with the face or the throat, a child seat should be used.
l
The child restraint system should be ap­propriate for the child’s weight and height and properly fit in the vehicle. For a higher degree of safety: THE CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM SHOULD BE INSTALLED IN THE REAR SEAT.
l
Before 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
l
When installing a child restraint system, 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.
l
After installation, push and pull the child 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.
l
When the child restraint system is not in 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.
NOTE
l
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:
•
Using the lower anchorage in the rear seat ONLY if the child restraint has ISOFIX mountings (See page 4-25).
•
Using the seat belt (See page 4-26).

Older children
Children who have outgrown the child re­straint system should be seated in the rear seat and wear combination lap shoulder belt. The lap portion of the belt should be snug and positioned low on the abdomen so that it is below the top of the hip-bone. Otherwise, the belt could intrude into the child’s abdo­men during an accident and cause injury.

Installing a child restraint sys­tem to the lower anchorage (ISOFIX child restraint mount­ings) and tether anchorage*
Lower anchorage location
Your vehicle’s second seat is fitted with low­er anchorages for attaching a child restraint system with ISOFIX mountings.
AA0111504
Tether anchorage location
There are 2 child restraint anchorage points located on the back of the second seatbacks. These are for securing a child restraint sys­tem tether strap to each of the 2 rear seating positions in your vehicle.
WARNING
l
Child restraint anchorages are designed to withstand only those loads imposed by correctly fitted child restraints. Under no circumstances are they to be used for adult seat belts, harnesses, or for attach­ing other items or equipment to the vehi­cle.
Child restraint system with ISOFIX mountings
The child restraint system is designed only for seats that incorporate lower anchorages. Retain the child restraint system using the lower anchorages. It is not necessary to retain the child restraint system using the vehicle’s seat belts.
