Fuel selectionE00200105096Recommended fuel
Cetane number (EN
590) 51 or higherCAUTIONlYour vehicle is designed to use only diesel
fuel that meets the EN590 standard.
Use of any other type of diesel fuel (bio die-
sel, methylester, etc.) would adversely affect
the engine’s performance and durability.
l If proper “winter” fuel is not used in winter,
the diesel preheat indication lamp may blink and the engine speed may not rise above theidling speed because of fuel freezing. In this
case, keep the engine idling for approxi- mately 10 minutes, then turn off the ignition
switch or put the operation mode in OFF and immediately turn it on or put in ON again to
confirm that the diesel preheat indication lamp is off. (Refer to “Diesel preheat indica-
tion lamp” on page 5-14)NOTEl For diesel fuel, due to the separation of par-
affin, the fluidity of the fuel decreases con- siderably 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.
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
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 your MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.Graphical expression for con-
sumer information
B7: Diesel fuel containing up to 7.0 % (V/V) Fatty Acid Methyl Esters - Eg. EN 590 com-pliant diesel
The diesel engine are compatible with B7
type diesel (containing 7 % fatty acid methyl
esters) conforming to European standards EN590.
CAUTIONl Do not use more than 7 % concentration of
fatty acid methyl esters (bio diesel) by vol-
ume.
Use of more than 7 % concentration would adversely affect the engine’s performance
and durability.

We recommend you to consult yourMITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point.
CAUTIONl Your vehicle is equipped with a diagnosis
connector for checking and servicing theelectronic control system.
Do not connect a device other than a diagno-
sis tool for inspections and service to this

Otherwise, the battery could be discharged,
the electronic devices of the vehicle could malfunction, or other unexpected problems could result.
In addition, malfunctions caused by connect-
ing a device other than a diagnosis tool may not be covered under warranty.
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 with-
in the documents accompanying this ve- hicle.
l Improper installation of electrical parts
could cause fire, please refer to the Mod-
ification/ alteration to the electrical or fuel systems section within this owner’smanual.
l When installing the radio, for the re-
quired information (frequency, transmis-
sion output, installing procedure), con-
sult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point.
If the frequency, transmission output and
installing condition are not appropriate, it can adversely affect the electronic de-vices and could lead to unsafe vehicle
operation.
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 oper- ation.
l Tyres and wheels which do not meet
specifications must not be used.
Refer to the “Specifications” section for information regarding wheel and tyre
sizes.
Important points!
Due to a large number of accessories and re-
placement parts of different manufactures available in the market, it is not possible, not
only for MITSUBISHI MOTORS , but also
for a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point, to check whether the attach- ment or installation of such parts affects the
overall safety of your vehicle.

Entering or leaving the vehicle
2-05OKTE18E1General information2

Even when such parts are officially Author-ized, for example by a “general operators
permit” (an appraisal for the part) or through the execution of the part in an officially ap- proved manner of construction, or when a
single operation permit following the attach- ment or installation of such parts, it cannot be
deduced from that alone, that the driving safety of your vehicles has not been affected.

Consider also that there basically exists no li- ability on the part of the appraiser or the offi-
cial. Maximum safety can only be ensured
with parts recommended, sold and fitted or installed by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point ( MITSUBISHI
MOTORS GENUINE replacement parts and
MITSUBISHI MOTORS accessories). The
same also pertains to modifications of vehi- cles with respect to the production specifica- tions. For safety reasons, do not attempt any
modifications other than those that follow the recommendations of a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.Modification/alterations to

WARNINGlWhen using electro-medical devices other
than implantable cardiac pacemakers or implantable cardiovascular-defibrillators,
contact the electro-medical device manu- facturer ahead of time to determine theaffects of radio waves on the devices. Elec-
tro-medical device operations could be af- fected by radio waves.
You can limit the possible operations of the
keyless operation system in the following ways. (The keyless operation system can be
used as a keyless entry system.) Please con-
sult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point.
l You can limit operations to locking and
unlocking the doors.
l You can limit operations to starting the
engine.
l The keyless operation system can be dis-
abled.
When keyless operation system operations are modified, the operating transmitters are as
follows.
l Only locking and unlocking doors: exte-
rior transmitter and interior transmitter
l Only starting the engine: interior trans-
mitterNOTEl The keyless operation key uses an ultra-
weak electromagnetic wave. In the following
cases, the keyless operation system may not
operate properly or may be unstable.
• When there is equipment nearby that
emits strong radio waves, such as: a pow-
er station, a radio/TV broadcasting station or an airport.
• The keyless operation system is carried
together with a communications device such as a cellular phone or radio set, or
with an electronic device such as a per- sonal computer.
• The keyless operation key is touching or
covered by a metal object.
• A keyless entry system is being used
nearby.
• When the keyless operation key battery is
worn out.NOTE• When the keyless operation key is placed
in an area with strong radio waves or noise.
In such cases, use the emergency key.
Refer to “To lock/unlock without using
the keyless operation function” on page 3-11.
l Because the keyless operation key receives
signals in order to communicate with the transmitters in the vehicle, the battery con-tinually wears down regardless of keylessoperation key use. The battery life is 1 to 2
years, depending on usage conditions. When the battery wears out, replace the battery ac-cording to the description in this manual or
have it replaced a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.
Refer to “Procedure for replacing the key battery” on page 3-06.
l Because the keyless operation key continual-
ly receives signals, strong radio wave recep- tion could affect battery wear. Do not leave
the key near a TV, personal computer, or
other electronic device.Operating range of the keyless
