If your vehicle becomes stuck in sand, mud or snow
1. Slowly press down on the accelerator peda
l to get your vehicle moving again. For
vehicle equipped with the Electronically controlled 4WD system, set the drive mode- selector to the “4WD AUTO” or “4WD LO
CK” position and then slowly press down
on the accelerator pedal to get your vehicle moving.2. If there is nothing to stop your tires from
slipping, rock your vehicle back and forth to
free it.
P.8-14
WA R N I N G When attempting to rock your vehicle out of
a stuck position, be sure that no one is
near the vehicle. The rocking motion may c
ause the vehicle to
suddenly lurch forward or backward, possibly injuring bystanders. Avoid revving the engine or spinning the
wheels. Prolonged efforts to free a stuck ve
hicle may result in overheating and transa
xle failure.
If the vehicle remains stuck after several rocking at
tempts, have a towing service pull the vehicle out.

Fuel selection 3-2 General information

N00301001948
Your vehicle is designed to use unleaded gas- oline only. It is equipped with a fuel fillertube especially designed to accept only a small diameter unlead
ed gasoline dispensing
nozzle. In the United States, fuel suppliers are required by law to add detergents to their gas-
oline to minimize fuel-injector fouling and minimize intake-valve deposits. Detergent gasoline helps keep your engine in tune and your emission-control system working prop-erly. Your vehicle is designed to operate on unleaded gasoline having a minimum octanenumber of 87 [(MON+RON)/2], or 91 RON. MON: Motor Octane Number RON: Research Octane Number Gasoline sold at some service stations con- tains oxygenates such as ethanol, although the oxygenates may not be identified by thosenames. Oxygenates are required in some areas of the country. Such fuel can be used in your vehicle. A mixture of up to 10 % ethanol (grain alco- hol) and 90 % unleaded gasoline may be usedin your vehicle, provided the octane number
is at least as high as that recommended for unleaded gasoline. Do not operate your vehicle on gasoline con- taining methanol (wood alcohol). Using this type of alcohol could adversely affect the vehicle’s performance and damage criticalparts of the vehicle’s fuel system. Many areas of the country require the use of cleaner burning fuel referred to as “Reformu-lated Gasoline”. Reformulated gasoline contains oxygenates and is specially blended to reduce vehicleemissions and improve air quality. Mitsubishi Motors Cor
poration strongly sup-
ports the use of reformulated gasoline. Prop-erly blended reformulated gasoline has no adverse effect on vehicle performance or the durability of the engine and fuel system.
Fuel selection
WA R N I N G Gasoline is highly flammable and explo- sive. You could be burned, seriouslyinjured or killed when handling it. When- ever you refuel your vehicle, stop the engine and keep flames, sparks, andsmoking materials away from the vehicle. Always handle fuel in well-ventilated out- door areas.CAUTION Using leaded gasoline in your vehicle will damage the engine, catalytic converter, and the oxygen sensors. Also, using leaded gaso-line is illegal, and will void your warranty coverage of the engine, catalytic converter, and oxygen sensors.

MMT is a manganese-containing metallic additive that is blended into some gasolines to increase the octane number. Mitsubishi Motors Corporation recommendsusing gasolines without MMT. Use of gasolines blended with MMT may adversely affect performance, and cause themalfunction indicator on your instrumentpanel to come on. If this happens, contact an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice for assistance. Your vehicle may have been designed to sat- isfy California’s low-emission regulationsbased on clean-burning low-sulfur gasoline. Gasoline sold in parts of the country other than California is allowed to have a highersulfur content. Using such gasoline could adversely affect the vehicle’s catalytic con- verter and cause the engine malfunction indi-cator (“SERVICE ENGINE SOON” or “CHECK ENGINE”) to come on. Illumina- tion of this indicator while you are usinghigh-sulfur gasoline does not necessarily mean the vehicle’s emission-control system is malfunctioning. Your authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer may suggest you try using a different, lower-sulfur brand of unleaded gas- oline to determine whether the problem is fuel-related.
N00301100900
MMT (methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl) Sulfur in gasoline
NOTE
 Poor-quality gasoline can cause problems such as poor starting,
stalling during idling,
abnormal engine noise, and poor accelera- tion. If you experience any of these prob- lems, try using a different brand of gasoline.If the engine malfunction indicator (“SER- VICE ENGINE SOON” or “CHECK ENGINE”) flashes, have the vehicleinspected as soon as possible by the nearest authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.  Repeatedly driving short distances at low speeds can cause deposits to form in the fuelsystem and engine, resulting in poor starting and poor acceleration. If these problems occur, you are advised to add a detergentadditive to the gasoline when you refuel the vehicle. The additive will remove the depos- its, thereby returning the engine to a normalcondition. Be sure to use a Mitsubishi Motors Genuine cleaning additive. Using an unsuitable additive could make the engine malfunction. For details, please contact the nearest authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
Filling the fuel tank
WA R N I N G Gasoline is highly flammable and explo- sive. You could be burned, seriously injured or killed when handling it. When refueling your vehicle, always turn theengine off and keep away from flames, sparks, and smoking materials. Always handle fuel in well-ventilated outdoorareas. 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 fuel pump. Any static electricity on your bodycould create a spark that ignites fuel vapor. 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 staticelectricity, fuel vapor could be ignited. Do not move away from the fuel tank filler 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. Be careful not to inhale fuel vapor. Fuel contains toxic substances.
