fuel
Petrol-powered vehicles
Unleaded petrol octane num-
ber (EN228) 1600 models, 1800 models95 RON or higher
2000 models 90 RON or higher
Diesel-powered vehicles Cetane number (EN590)51 or higher CAUTION
l
For
petrol-powered vehicles, the use of lea-
ded fuel can result in serious damage to
the engine and catalytic converter. Do not
use leaded fuel.
l Diesel-powered vehicles are designed to
use only diesel fuel that meets the EN590
standard.
Use of any other type of diesel fuel (bio
diesel, methylester, etc.) would adversely
affect the engine’s performance and dura-
bility. NOTE
l Petrol-powered
vehicles have the knock con-
trol system so that you can use unleaded pet-
rol 90 RON as an emergent measure in case
unleaded petrol 95 RON or higher is not avail-
able 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 Due to the separation of paraffin, the fluidity
of the fuel decreases considerably as the tem-
perature 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 ac-
cordance 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.
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 oc-
cur, you are advised to add a detergent addi-
tive to the gasoline when you refuel the vehi-
cle. The additive will remove the deposits,
thereby returning the engine to a normal con-
dition. Be sure to use a genuine
MITSUBISHI FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER.
Using an unsuitable additive could make the
engine malfunction. For details, please con-
tact a 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 prob-
lems, 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.
E10 type petrol E00203200022
The petrol engines are compatible with E10
type
petrol (containing 10 % ethanol) conforming to Eu-
ropean standards EN 228. CAUTION
l
Do not use more than
10 % concentration
of ethanol (grain alcohol) by volume.
Use of more than 10 % concentration
may lead to damage to your vehicle fuel
system, engine, engine sensors and ex-
haust system. General information

Filling the fuel tank
E00200202432WARNING
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
Refueling

release lever located on the side of the driv-
er’s seat. 3. Remove the fuel cap.Open the fuel tank filler tube by slowly turn-
ing the cap anticlockwise.
1- Remove
2-
Close
4. While filling with fuel, hang the fuel cap cord on the hook located on the inside of the
fuel tank filler door. General information

CAUTION
l
Since the fuel system may be under pres-
sure, remove the fuel cap slowly. This re-
lieves any pressure or vacuum that might
have built up in the fuel tank. If you hear
a hissing sound from the cap, wait until it
stops before removing the cap. Other-
wise, fuel may spray out, injuring you or
others.
5. Insert
the gun in the tank port as far as it goes. CAUTION
l
Do not tilt the gun.
6. When
the gun stops automatically, do not fill with fuel any more.
7. Close the fuel cap. 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
E00200300963
We
recommend you to consult a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
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 ac-
companying this vehicle.
l Installing electric components incorrectly
could lead to a fire. Please refer to Modifica-
tion/alteration to the electrical or fuel sys-
tems section within this owner’s manual.
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 specifi-
cations must not be used.
Refer to the “Specifications” section for in-
formation regarding wheel and tyre sizes.
Important points!
Due to large number of accessory and replacement
parts of different manufactures available in the mar-
ket, it is not possible, not only for MITSUBISHI
MOTORS, but also for a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point, to check whether the at-
tachment 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 ap-
praisal for the part) or through the execution of the
part in an officially approved manner of construc-
tion, or when a single operation permit following
the attachment or installation of such parts, it can-
not be deduced from that alone, that the driving safe-
ty of your vehicle has not been affected.
Consider also that there basically exists no liability
on the part of the appraiser or the official. Maxi-
mum safety can only be ensured with parts recom-
mended, 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 produc-
tion specifications. For safety reasons, do not at-
tempt any modifications other than those that fol-
low the recommendations of a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point. General information
