Filling the fuel tank
E00200202256WARNING
l When handling fuel, comply with the safe-
ty regulations displayed by garages and
filling stations.
l Gasoline is highly flammable and explo-
sive. You could be burned or seriously in-
jured 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 the
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, remov-
ing 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 ig-
nited.
l Do not move away from the fuel tank fill-
er 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 original part. Fuel tank capacity
2WD models: 63 litres
4WD models: 60 litres
