Fuel selectionE00200102907Recommended
fuelCetane number (EN590) 51 or higherCAUTIONlYour vehicle is designed to use only diesel
fuel that meets the EN590 standard.
Use of any other type of diesel fuel would
adversely affect the engine’s performance and durability.NOTEl Due to the separation of paraffin, the fluidity
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 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 sta- tions.NOTEl 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 fuelwhen 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 de- tails, please contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.Filling the fuel tank
E00200202025WARNINGlWhen 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.WARNINGl Perform the whole refueling process
(opening the fuel tank filler door, remov- ing the fuel cap, etc.) by yourself. Do notlet 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.
l Do not move away from the fuel tank fill-
er until refueling is finished. If you moved away and did something else (for exam-
ple, cleaning your windscreen) partway 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
75 litres
Refueling
1. Before filling with fuel, stop the engine.
2. The fuel tank filler is located on the rear
left side of your vehicle.

Keep one in a safe place as a spare key.
Type 1Type 2
WARNINGl 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.NOTEl 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 to
direct 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.NOTE• 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 humidi-
ty.
l The engine is designed so that it will not
start if the ID code registered in the immo-
bilizer computer and the key’s ID code do
not match. Refer to the “Electronic immobil- izer” section for details and key usage.Electronic immobilizer
(Anti-theft starting system) E00300203094
The electronic immobilizer is designed tosignificantly reduce the possibility of vehicle
theft. The purpose of the system is to immo-
bilize the vehicle if an invalid start is attemp-
ted. A valid start attempt can only be ach- ieved (subject to certain conditions) using akeyless operation system “registered” to theimmobilizer system.
NOTEl 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.

the operating direction of the rear retract-
able power window switch and the operat-
ing direction of the rear retractable power
window do not match each other. Exercise caution to avoid the risk of accidentally
trapping a hand or your head when oper- ating the rear retractable power window.
• Even if the rear retractable power win-
dow switch (1) is lightly pressed while
