1-2 General information
1Fuel selection
N00301000912
Your vehicle is designed to use unleaded gasoline only. It is
equipped with a fuel tank filler pipe specifically designed to
accept only a small diameter unleaded gasoline dispensing noz-
zle.Gasoline detergent additivesIn the United States, fuel suppliers are required by law to add
detergents to their gasoline to minimize fuel-injector clogging
and minimize intake-valve deposits. Detergent gasoline helps
keep your engine in tune and your emission-control system
working properly.
Octane requirementYour vehicle is designed to operate on unleaded gasoline hav-
ing a minimum octane number of 87 [(MON+RON)/2] or 91
RON.Oxygenated gasolineGasoline sold at some service stations contains oxygenates
such as ethanol, although the oxygenates may not be identified
by those names. Oxygenates are required in some areas of the
country. Such fuel can be used in your vehicle.Ethanol (Gasohol)A mixture of up to 10 % ethanol (grain alcohol) and 90 %
unleaded gasoline may be used in your vehicle, provided the
octane number is at least as high as that recommended for
unleaded gasoline.MethanolDo not operate your vehicle on gasoline containing methanol
(wood alcohol). Using this type of alcohol could adversely
affect the vehicle’s performance and damage critical parts of
the vehicle’s fuel system.
WA R N I N G
!
Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive. You
could be burned, seriously injured or killed when
handling it. Whenever you refuel your vehicle, stop
the engine and keep flames, sparks, and smoking
materials away from the vehicle. Always handle fuel
in well-ventilated outdoor areas.
CAUTION
!
Using leaded gasoline in your vehicle will damage
the engine, catalytic converter, and the oxygen sen-
sors. Also, using leaded gasoline is illegal, and will
void your warranty coverage of the engine, catalytic
converter, and oxygen sensors.

WA R N I N G
!
When handling fuel, comply with the safety regula-
tions displayed by garages and filling stations.
Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive. You
could be burned, seriously injured or killed when
handling it. When refueling your vehicle, always
turn the engine off and keep away from flames,
sparks, and smoking materials. Always handle fuel
in well-ventilated outdoor areas.
Before removing the fuel tank filler 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 elec-
tricity on your body could create a spark that ignites
fuel vapor.
Perform the whole refueling process (opening the
fuel tank filler door, removing the fuel tank filler
cap, etc.) by yourself; do not let any other person
near the fuel tank filler. If you allowed a person to
help you and that person was carrying static elec-
tricity, 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.

Keep the doors and windows closed while refueling
the vehicle. If they were open, fuel vapor could get
into the cabin.

4. While filling with fuel, hang the fuel tank filler cap cord
on the hook located on the inside surface of the fuel tank
filler door.5. To fill with fuel correctly depends mainly on correct han-
dling of the fuel filler nozzle. Do not tilt the nozzle. Insert
the nozzle in the fuel tank filler port as far as it goes.
6. When the nozzle stops automatically, do not add more
fuel.
7. To close, turn the fuel tank filler cap slowly clockwise
until you hear clicking sounds, then gently push the fuel
tank filler door closed.
WA R N I N G
!
Since the fuel system may be under pressure,
remove the fuel tank filler cap slowly. This relieves
any pressure or vacuum that might have built up in
the fuel tank. If the fuel tank filler cap is venting
vapor or if you hear a hissing sound, wait until the
sound stops before removing the fuel tank filler cap.
Otherwise, fuel may spray out, injuring you or oth-
ers.
CAUTION
!
Your vehicle can only be operated using unleaded
gasoline. Serious engine and catalytic converter
damage will result if leaded gasoline is filled into
these vehicles, and consequently, this must never be
attempted.
CAUTION
!
To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do not “top-
off” the fuel tank. Spilled fuel could discolor, stain,
or crack the vehicle’s paintwork. If fuel spills on the
paintwork, wipe it off with a soft cloth.
WA R N I N G
!
Make sure the fuel tank filler cap is securely closed.
If the fuel tank filler cap were loose, fuel could leak,
resulting in a fire.

2 Seats and restraint systems
N00401600212
Your vehicle has seat belts and other safety features that help
protect you and your passengers in an accident.
Seat belts are the most important safety device. When worn
properly, seat belts can reduce the chance of serious injury or
death in various types of crashes. For added protection during a
severe frontal collision, your vehicle has a Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) with airbags for the driver and passen-
gers. The seats, head restraints, and door locks also are safety
equipment, which must be used correctly.
Always check the following before you drive:

That everyone in your vehicle is properly wearing their
seat belt.

That infants and small children are properly secured in an
appropriate child restraint system in the rear seat.

That all doors are fully closed and locked.

That seatbacks are upright, with head restraints properly
adjusted.
Safety equipment cannot prevent injury or death in all motor
vehicle accidents. However, you can help reduce the risk of
injury or death by following the instructions in this manual.
Front seats
N00401800403
Position the driver’s seat as far back as possible while main-
taining a position that still enables you to fully apply the ped-
als, easily control the steering wheel and safely operate the
vehicle.

The side airbags and curtain airbags can cause seri-
ous injury or death to anyone too close to the airbag
when it deploys. To reduce the risk of injury from a
deploying side airbag and curtain airbag, all occu-
pants must be properly restrained and seated well
back, upright, and in the middle of the seat. Do not
lean against the door.
WA R N I N G
!
In order to reduce the risk of injury from a deploy-
ing side airbag, do not allow any rear seat passen-
gers to hold onto the back of either front seat.
Special care should be taken with children.
Do not place any objects around the area where the
side airbags deploy. Such objects can interfere with
proper side airbag deployment, and cause injury
during deployment of the side airbag.
Do not place stickers, labels or additional trim on
the back of either front seat. They can interfere with
proper side airbag deployment.

!
Do not attach a microphone (A) or any other object
around the part where the curtain airbag deploys,
such as on the windshield, side door glass or front
and rear pillars and roof side rail. When the curtain
airbag inflates, the microphone or other object may
be hurled with great force or the curtain airbag may
not inflate correctly, resulting in death or serious
injury.
WA R N I N G
!
Do not install seat covers or re-cover seats that have
side airbags. Covers can interfere with proper side
airbag deployment and adversely affect side airbag
performance.
Never install a rear-facing child restraint system in
the front passenger seat. Rear-facing child restraint
systems MUST ONLY be used in the rear seat.
Front-facing child restraint systems should also be
used ONLY in the rear seat. If a front-facing child
restraint system must be used in the front passenger
seat, move the seat as far back as possible, and make
sure that the child stays in the child restraint system,
properly restrained and away from the door.
Do not allow a child to lean against or sit close to the
passenger door, even if the child is seated in a child
restraint system. The child’s head should also not
lean against or be close to the section of the seatback
where the side airbag and curtain airbag are
located. It is dangerous if the side airbag or curtain
airbag deploys. Failure to follow all of these instruc-
tions could lead to serious injury or death to the
child.
Work done on or in the vicinity of the side airbag or
curtain airbag components should be done only by
an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. There is a
risk of a serious injury or death. Improper work
methods can cause accidental side airbag or curtain
airbag deployment, or render a side airbag or cur-
tain airbag inoperable. Either of these situations
could result in serious injury or death.
