Fuel selection
E00200102141Recommended fuel
Cetane number (EN590)
51 or higher CAUTION
l
Your vehicle is designed to use 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.
NOTE 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
Poor-quality
diesel fuel can cause deposits to
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 de-
posits, thereby returning the engine to a nor-
mal condition.
Be sure to use a genuine MITSUBISHI DIE-
SEL 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
E00200202025 WARNING
l When
handling fuel, comply with the safe-
ty regulations displayed by garages and
filling stations.
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, cleaning your windscreen) part-
way through the refueling process, you
could pick up a fresh charge of static elec-
tricity.
l If the tank cap must be replaced, use only
a MITSUBISHI MOTORS original part.

Keys
E00300101608
Two keys are provided. The key fits all locks.
Keep one in a safe place as a spare key.Type 1
Type 2 WARNING
l When
taking a key on flights, do not
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 l The

key number is stamped on the tag as in-
dicated in the illustration.
Make a record of the key number and store
the key and key number tag in separate pla-
ces, so that you can order a key in the event
the original keys are lost.
l The key is a precision electronic device with
a built-in signal transmitter. Please observe
the following in order to prevent a malfunc-
tion.
• Do not leave in a place that is exposed todirect sunlight, for example on the dash-
board.
• Do not disassemble or modify.
• Do not excessively bend the key or sub- ject it to strong impacts.
• Do not expose to water.
• Keep away from magnetic key holders.
• Keep away from audio systems, personal computers, TVs, and other equipment
that generates a magnetic field.
• Do not clean with ultrasonic cleaners or similar equipment. • Do
not leave the key where it may be ex-
posed to high temperature or high humid-
ity.
l The engine is designed so that it will not
start if the ID code registered in the immobil-
izer computer and the key’s ID code do not
match. Refer to the “Electronic immobilizer”
section for details and key usage. Locking and unlocking

Electronic immobilizer (Anti-
theft starting system) E00300200921
The
electronic immobilizer is designed to signifi-
cantly reduce the possibility of vehicle theft. The
purpose of the system is to immobilize the vehicle
if an invalid start is attempted. A valid start attempt
can only be achieved (subject to certain conditions)
using a keyless operation system “registered” to
the immobilizer system.
NOTE
l In the following cases, the vehicle may not
be able to receive the registered ID code
from the key. This means the engine will not
start even when the registered key is turned
to the “START” position.
• When the key contacts a key ring or othermetallic or magnetic object (Type A)
• When the key grip contacts metal of an- other key (Type B)
• When the key contacts or is close to other immobilizing keys (including keys of oth-
er vehicles) (Type C)

In cases like these, remove the object or
additional key from the vehicle key and
turn the key back to the “ACC” or
“LOCK” position. Then try again to start
the engine. If the engine does not start, we recom-
mend
you to contact your MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point. l
Two keys are provided.
If
you lose one of them, order a replacement
as soon as possible.
To obtain a key, take your vehicle and all re-
maining keys to a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.
If you need an extra spare key, take your ve-
hicle and all the keys to a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point. All the
keys have to be re-registered in the immobil-
izer computer unit. The immobilizer allows
up to 8 different ID codes to be registered;
you can register a maximum of 8 keys for use. CAUTION
l
Don’t
make any alterations or additions
to the immobilizer system; alterations or
additions could cause failure of the immo-
bilizer. Locking and unlocking

l It

is not possible to stop the rear retractable
power window in any position other than the
fully closed position, ventilation position,
and fully open position.
If the rear retractable power window is
opened while the rear window demister is op-
erating, the rear window demister automati-
cally stops. When the rear retractable power
window is subsequently fully closed, the be-
haviour of the rear window demister depends
upon the elapsed time of the rear window de-
mister’s timer. (The timer runs for about 20
minutes in total.) • If the rear window demister’s timer is run-ning, the rear window demister restarts
for the remaining time.
• If the rear window demister’s timer has finished, the rear window demister does
not operate. If you wish to activate the
rear window demister, press the rear win-
dow demister switch again. Locking and unlocking

If the sunroof does not operate when the sun-
roof switch is operated, release the switch
and check whether something is trapped by
the sunroof. If nothing is trapped, we recom-
mend you to have the sunroof checked.
l Depending on the model of ski carriers or
roof carriers, the sunroof may make contact
with the carrier when the sunroof is tilted up.
Be careful when tilting up the sunroof if such
a ski carrier or a roof carrier is installed.
l Be sure to close the sunroof completely
when washing the vehicle or when leaving
the vehicle.
l Be careful, not to put any wax on the weath-
erstrip (black rubber) around the sunroof
opening. If stained with wax, the weather-
strip cannot maintain a weatherproof seal
with the sunroof.
l After washing the vehicle or after it has
rained, wipe off any water that is on the sun-
roof before operating it.
l Operating the sunroof repeatedly with the en-
gine stationary will run down the battery. Op-
erate the sunroof while the engine is running. Locking and unlocking
