CAUTION

● For petrol-powered vehicles, the use of leaded fuel

can result in serious damage to the engine and cata­lytic converter.

● Diesel-powered vehicles to comply with the Euro 4

regulation are designed to use only diesel fuel that
meets the EN 590 standard.
Use of any other type of diesel fuel can adversely
affect the engine.

E00200101362

OTE

● Petrol-powered vehicles have the knock control system so

that you can use unleaded petrol 91 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 91 RON, the engine per­formance level is reduced.

● In petrol-powered vehicles, repeatedly driving short dis-

tance 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 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 hard start-

ing, stalling, engine noise and hesitation. If your 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.

General information

● In diesel-powered vehicles, poor-quality diesel fuel can

cause deposits form in the injector, resulting in black
smoke and rough idling.
If these problems occur, you are advised to add a cleaning
additive to the diesel fuel when you refuel the vehicle.
The additive will break up and remove the deposits,
thereby returning the engine to a normal condition.
Be sure to use a genuine MITSUBISHI DIESEL FUEL
SYSTEM CLEANER. Using an unsuitable additive could
make the engine malfunction. For details, please contact
your MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point.

Filling the fuel tank

!

WARNING

● When handling fuel, comply with the safety regula-

tions displayed by garages and filling stations.

● 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
vapor.

● Perform the whole refuelling 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
vapor 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.

● If the tank cap must be replaced, use only a MIT-

SUBISHI MOTORS original part.

General information

Refueling

1. Before filling with fuel, stop the engine.

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

General information

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

A- Remove

B- Close

!

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. Insert the gun in the tank port as far as it goes.

!

CAUTION

● Do not tilt the gun.

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

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.

General information

Installation of accessories

E00200300774

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

● The installation of accessories, optional parts, 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 Modi­fication/alteration to the electrical or fuel systems section
within this owner’s manual.

● Using a cellular phone or radio set inside the vehicle with-

out 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.

● When fitting accessories, ensure that maximum gross

vehicle weight and maximum axle weight are not
exceeded.

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 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 vehicle with respect
to the production specifications. For your own safety, in such
cases, you should only undertake modifications according to
the recommendations of a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author­ized Service Point.

General information

Modification/alterations to the electrical or

fuel systems

E00200400254

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.

Genuine parts

E00200500330

MITSUBISHI MOTORS has gone to great lengths to bring you
a superbly crafted automobile offering the highest quality and
dependability.
Use MITSUBISHI MOTORS genuine parts, designed and
manufactured to maintain your MITSUBISHI MOTORS auto­mobile at top performance. MITSUBISHI MOTORS genuine
parts are identified by this mark and are available at all MIT­SUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Points.

WARNING

● Do not attempt to adjust the seat while driving. This

can cause loss of vehicle control and result in an

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.

● 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.

CAUTION

● Make sure the seat is adjusted by an adult or with

adult supervision for correct and safe operation.

● Do not place a cushion or the like between your back

and the seatback while driving. The effectiveness of

Seat belts

E00404800072

To protect you and your passengers in the event of an accident,
it is most important that the seat belts be worn correctly while
driving.
The front seat belts have a pre-tensioner system. These belts
are used the same way as a conventional seat belt.
Refer to “Seat belt pre-tensioner system and force limiter sys­tem” on page 2-43.

!

WARNING

● Always place the shoulder belt over your shoulder

and across your chest. Never put it behind you or
under your arm.

● One seat belt should be used by only one person.

Doing otherwise can be dangerous.

● 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.

● Seat belts should always be worn by every adult who

drives or rides in this vehicle, and by all children
who are large enough to wear seat belts properly.
Other children should always use proper child
restraint systems.

● Remove any twists when using the belt.

devices from operating to remove slack, or prevent
the seat belt assembly from being adjusted to
remove slack.

● 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 your
child in a collision or sudden stop.

● Always adjust the belt to a snug fit.

● Always wear the lap portion of the belt over your

hips.

approximately 1 minute later, the warning lamp will flash and
the tone sound intermittently (each 12 times) when the vehicle
is driven. If the driver subsequently unfastens the seat belt
while driving, the warning lamp and tone will issue further
warnings. And if the seat belt remains unfastened, the warning
lamp and tone will issue further warnings each time the vehicle
starts moving from a stop. When the seat belt is fastened, the

Seat belt pre-tensioner system and force

limiter system

E00405700081

The driver’s seat and front passenger’s seat each have a seat
belt equipped with a pre-tensioner system.

Pre-tensioner system

The pre-tensioner system will retract their respective seat belts
instantaneously, thus maximizing the seat belt’s effectiveness,
if there is a frontal impact severe enough to injure the driver
and/or front passenger and the ignition switch is in the “ON” or
“START” position.

!

WARNING

● To obtain the best results from your pre-tensioner

seat belt, make sure you have adjusted your seat
correctly and wear your seat belt properly.

!

CAUTION

● Installation of audio equipment or repairs in the

vicinity of the pre-tensioner 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 pre-tensioner sys­tems.

Child restraint

E00406401066

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

● When possible, put children in the rear seat. Acci-

dent statistics indicate that children of all sizes and
ages are safer when properly restrained in the rear
seat rather than in the front seat.

● 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 your
child.

● Each child restraint device or fixing is to be used

only by one child.

● When attaching a child restraint to the rear seat,

place the front seatbacks in the upright position.
Otherwise, the child could be seriously injured in
the event of hard braking or a collision.

Infants and small children

E00406600641

When transporting infants and small children in your vehicle,
follow the instruction given below.

2

Instruction:

● 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.

● The child restraint system should be appropriate for your

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.

2-46

Seat and seat belts

N

● 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

● 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 your child.

● After installation, push and pull the child restraint

system back and forth, and side to side, to see that it
is positively 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.

● 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.

OTE

● 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 (3-door models)/
second seat (5-door models) ONLY if the child restraint
has ISOFIX mountings (See page 2-54).

• To the seat belt (See page 2-57).

Older children

E00406700147

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.
