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.
