CAUTION
For petrol-powered vehicles, the use of lea-
l
ded fuel can result in serious damage to the
engine and catalytic converter. Do not use
leaded fuel.
Diesel-powered vehicles are designed to use
l
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.

CAUTION
For diesel-powered vehicles, if proper “win-
l
ter” fuel is not used in winter, the diesel preheat indication lamp may blink and the engine speed may not rise above the idling
speed because of fuel freezing. In this case,
keep the engine idling for about ten minutes,
then turn off the ignition switch and immediately turn it on again to confirm that the diesel preheat indication lamp is off. (Refer to
“Diesel preheat indication lamp” on page
5-09.)
NOTE
It is advisable to sufficiently warm up the
l
engine after starting it when the outside temperature is below zero °C.
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.
NOTE
In petrol-powered vehicles, repeatedly driv-
l
ing 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 your
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
Poor quality petrol can cause problems such
l
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
NOTE
In diesel-powered vehicles, poor-quality die-
l
sel 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 MITSUBISHI MOTORS
GENUINE DIESEL FUEL SYSTEM
CLEANER. Using an unsuitable additive
could make the engine malfunction. For details, please contact your MITSUBISHI

Filling the fuel tank
WARNING
When handling fuel, comply with the safe-
l
ty regulations displayed by garages and
filling stations.
Before removing the fuel tank filler tube
l
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.
Perform the whole refueling process
l
(opening the fuel tank filler door, removing the fuel tank filler tube 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 door 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 fuel tank filler tube cap must be re-
l
placed, use only a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS genuine part.

The installation of accessories, optional
l
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 com-
l
ponents 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.
When installing the radio, for the re-
l
quired information (frequency, transmission output, installing procedure), consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point.

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 vehicles 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, you should only undertake
modifications according to the recommendations of a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
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
l
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.

tection function and the interior intrusion detection function can be adjusted. For details,
please contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.
The security alarm has four
modes:
System preparation mode (approx. 20 seconds)
(The buzzer sounds intermittently, and the security alarm indicator (A) blinks)
The system preparation time extends from
the point at which all of the doors (including
the backdoor) are locked by the keyless entry
switch to the point at which the system activation mode goes into effect.
During this time, it is possible to temporarily
open a door without using the keyless entry
system and without causing the alarm to
sound (for example, when you forget something inside the vehicle or realize that a window is open).

the system armed mode starts. If an unlawful
opening of any of the doors (including the
backdoor) or the 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 3-15.
NOTE
The alarm will resume if unlawful actions
l
are taken again, even if the alarm has stopped.
System cancellation
It is possible to cancel the system activation
during the system preparation mode or the
system armed mode.
In addition, it is possible to cancel the alarm
once it has been activated.
Refer to “Cancelling the system” on page
3-15, “Cancelling the alarm” on page 3-16.
NOTE
When lending the vehicle to another person
l
or allowing the vehicle to be driven by
someone who is unfamiliar with the security
alarm system, be sure to give the person a
proper explanation of the security alarm system or set the security alarm system to the
“inactive” mode.
If a person who is unfamiliar with the security alarm system accidentally unlocked the
vehicle, causing the alarm to sound, the
alarm would be a nuisance to people nearby.
