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. 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.

WARNING
handling fuel, comply with the safe-
When
l
ty regulations displayed by garages and filling stations. 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, cleaning your windscreen) part­way 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.

Installation of accessories

recommend you to consult your MITSUBISHI
We MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
The installation of accessories, optional com-
l
ponents, 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. See 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
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
OGXE12E1
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.

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 4-19.
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 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.

System characteristics
E00202300039
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 con-
l
ditioning starts operating in order to lower
E00202400030
the temperature. Electric power consumption is high.

press any switches on the key while on
the plane. If a switch is pressed on the
plane, the key emits electromagnetic
waves, which could adversely affect the
plane’s flight operation.
When carrying a key in a bag, be careful
that no switches on the key can be easily
pressed by mistake.
NOTE
The
key number is stamped on the tag as in-
l
dicated in the illustration. Make a record of the key number and store the key and key number tag in separate pla­ces, so that you can order a key in the event the original keys are lost. The key is a precision electronic device with
l
a built-in signal transmitter. Please observe the following in order to prevent a malfunc­tion.
• Do not leave in a place that is exposed to direct sunlight, for example on the dash­board.
• Do not disassemble or modify.
• Do not excessively bend the key or sub­ject it to strong impacts.
• Do not expose to water.
• Keep away from magnetic key rings.
• Keep away from audio systems, personal computers, TVs, and other equipment that generates a magnetic field.
• Keep away from devices that emit strong electromagnetic waves, such as cellular phones, wireless devices and high frequen­cy equipment (including medical devices).
• Do not clean with ultrasonic cleaners or similar equipment.
• Do not leave the key where it may be ex­posed to high temperature or high humid­ity.
The engine is designed so that it will not
l
start if the ID code registered in the immobil­izer computer and the key’s ID code do not match. Refer to the “Electronic immobilizer” section for details and key usage. [For vehicles equipped with the security

(The buzzer stops and 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 1-40.
NOTE

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. Do not let children or adults ride in areas
l
of the vehicle that are not equipped with seats or seat belts. Also, make sure that all occupants are sitting in their seats and wearing their seat belts, and that children are sitting in child restraints. To minimize the risk of personal injury
l
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.
CAUTION
Make sure the seat is adjusted by an
l
adult or with adult supervision for cor­rect and safe operation. Do not place a cushion or the like be-
l
tween your back and the seatback while driving. The effectiveness of the head re­straints will be reduced in the event of an accident. When sliding the seat rearward, be care-

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.
E00406600609
The child restraint system should be appropri-
l
ate 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.
NOTE
Before purchasing a child restraint system,
l
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
When
l
l
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. 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.
WARNING
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:
• To the lower anchorage in the rear seat ONLY if the child restraint has ISOFIX mountings (See page 2-25).
• To the seat belt (See page 2-19, 2-30).
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.

Supplemental restraint system
(SRS) - airbag
The information for SRS airbags includes impor­tant information concerning the driver’s and front passenger’s airbags, 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. A dual-stage airbag system is used where the SRS airbags for the driver’s and front passenger’s seats are controlled with impact sensors (on the front of the vehicle and in the centre of the vehicle floor).
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.

How the Supplemental Restraint Sys­tem works
The SRS includes the following components:
E00407301381
The airbags deployment produces a sudden, loud
and releases some smoke and powder, but
noise, these conditions are not injurious, and do not indi­cate a fire in the vehicle. People with respiratory problems may feel some temporary irritation from chemicals used to produce the deployment; open the windows after airbag deployment, if safe to do so. The airbags deflate very rapidly after deployment, so there is little danger of obscured vision.
WARNING
Place all infants and small children in the

rear seat and properly restrained using an appropriate child restraint system. The rear seat is the safest for infants and children.

WARNING
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO BE PROP-

ERLY SEATED. A driver or front passenger too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel during airbag deployment can be killed or seriously injured. Airbags inflate very fast, and with great force. If the driver and front passenger are not properly seated and restrained, the air­bags may not protect you properly, and could cause serious or fatal injuries when it inflates. Do not sit on the edge of the seat, or lean

head or chest close to the steering wheel or instrument panel. Do not put feet or legs on or against the instrument panel.
WARNING
Infants
