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 noadverse effect on vehicle performance or the durability of engine and fuel system. MMT is a manganese-containing metallic additive that is blended into some gasolinesto increase the octane number. Mitsubishi Motors Corporation recommends using gasolines without MMT.Use of gasolines blended with MMT may adversely affect performance, and cause the malfunction 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 light”) to come on. Illumina- tion of this indicator while you are using high-sulfur gasoline does not necessarilymean the vehicle’s emis
sion-control system is
malfunctioning. Your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer may suggest you try using adifferent, lower-sulfur brand of unleaded gas- oline to determine whether the problem is fuel-related.
Reformulated gasoline 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 light”) flashes, have the vehicle inspected assoon 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 enginemalfunction. For details, please contact the nearest authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.

Warning display A tone and warning light are used to remind the driver to fasten the seat belt. If the ignition switch is turned to the “ON”position without the driver’s seat belt being fastened, a warning light will come on and a tone will sound for approximately 6 secondsto remind you to fasten your seat belt. If you then drive with the seat belt unfastened for longer than a minute from when the igni-tion switch was turned to the “ON” position, the warning light will come on and blink repeatedly and the tone will sound intermit-tently. The warning light and the tone will stop after approximately 90 seconds.If you then repeatedly stop and start your vehicle with the seat belt unfastened, the warning light/display and tone will remindyou to fasten your seat belt every time thevehicle starts moving. You will also be reminded to fasten your seat belt in this way when you remove your seat belt while driv-ing. The warning light and the tone go off when the seat belt is fastened.

• Seat belts reduce the risk of being thrown from your vehicle in a collision or rollover.
 IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO BE PROP- ERLY SEATED.• A driver or front passenger sitting tooclose to the steering wheel or instrument panel during airbag deployment can be seriously injured or killed.• Airbags inflate very quickly and withgreat force. If the driver and front pas-senger are not properly seated and restrained, the airbag may not provide the proper protection and can cause seri-ous injuries or death when it inflates.• To reduce the risk to the driver of seriousinjury or death due to a deploying driver’s airbag, always properly wear your seat belt and adjust the driver’s seatas far back as possible, maintaining a position that still allows the driver to have good control of the steering wheel,brake, accelerator, and other vehicle con- trols.• To reduce the risk to the front passengerof serious injury or death from a deploy- ing passenger’s airbag, make sure the passenger always wears the seat belt properly, remains seated upright and allthe way back in the seat, and positions the seat as far back as possible. WA R N I N G
• Seat all infants and children in the rearseat, properly restrained in an appropri- ate child restraint system.
 Airbags inflate very quickly and with great force. Do not sit on the edge of the seat or sit with your lower legs too close to the instrument panel, or lean your head orchest close to the steering wheel or the instrument panel. Do not put your feet or legs on or against the instrument panel.WA R N I N G
WA R N I N G Infants and small children should never ride unrestrained, or lean against the instrument panel. They should never ride held in your arms or on your lap. They can be seriously injured or killed in anaccident, especially when the airbags inflate. Infants and children should be properly seated in the rear seat in anappropriate child restraint system. Refer to “Child restraint systems” on page 4-12.

The driver’s seat position sensor is attachedto the seat rail and provides the airbag controlunit with information on the seat’s fore-aft position. The airbag control unit controls deployment of the driver’s front airbag inaccordance with the information it receives from this sensor. If there is a problem involving the driver’sseat position sensor, the SRS warning in the instrument panel will come on. Refer to “SRS warning light/display” on page 4-25.
N00418000306
The passenger’s seat weight sensors areattached to the seat rails and provide the air- bag control unit with information regarding the weight on the front passenger seat. Theairbag control unit controls deployment of the passenger’s front airbag in accordance with the information it receives from this sensor.The passenger’s front airbag will not deploy in an impact when the weight on the seat is sensed to be less than approximately 66pounds (30 kg). In this case, the passenger’s airbag off indicator will come on. Refer to “Passenger’s airbag off indicator” onpage 4-25. If there is a problem involving the passen- ger’s seat weight sensors, the SRS warning inthe instrument panel will come on. Refer to “SRS warning light/display” on page 4-25.

WA R N I N G Do not attach anything to the steering wheel’s padded cover, such as trim mate- rial, badges, etc. These could strike and injure an occupant if the airbag inflates.  Do not set anything on, or attach anything to, the instrument panel above the glove compartment. Such items could strike andinjure an occupant if the airbag inflates. WA R N I N G Do not attach accessories to, or put them in front of, the windshield. They could restrict the airbag inflation, or strike andinjure an occupant, when the airbag inflates.
 Do not attach additional keys or accesso- ries (hard, pointed or heavy objects) to the ignition key. Such objects could prevent the driver’s knee airbag from inflating normally or could be propelled to causeserious injury if the airbag inflates.  Do not attach accessories to the lower por- tion of the driver’s side instrument panel. Such objects could prevent the driver’s knee airbag from inflating normally orcould be propelled to cause serious injury if the airbag inflates.WA R N I N G Do not attempt to remove, install, disas- semble or repair the SRS airbags.WA R N I N G
 Do not place objects, such as packages or pets, between the airbags and the driver or the front passenger. Such objects can adversely affect airbag performance, or cause serious injury or death when theairbag deploys. Immediately after airbag inflation, some parts of the airbag system will be hot. Do not touch them. You could be burned.  The airbag system is designed to work only once. After the airbags deploy, they will not work again. They must promptlybe replaced and the entire airbag system must be inspected by an authorized Mit- subishi Motors dealer.WA R N I N G
