N00628800178
Fuel economy is depe
ndent on many factors.
Your personal driving habits can have a sig- nificant effect on your
fuel consumption.
Several recommendations
for achieving the
greatest fuel economy are listed below.  Whenever accelerating from a stop, always accelerate
slowly and smoothly.
 When parked for even a short period, do not idle the engine. Shut it off. Plan your trips to avoid unnecessary stops.  Keep your tires inflated to the recom- mended pressures.  For freeway driving, maintain a speed of approximately 50 mph (80 km/h) whentraffic, roadway and weather conditions safely permit.  Keep your air filter clean and your vehicle lubricated according
to the recommenda-
tions in this manual.  Always keep your ve
hicle well main-
tained. A poorly maintained engine wastes fuel and costs money.  Never overload your vehicle.
N00628900049
Drunk driving is one of the most frequent causes of accidents. Your driving ability can be seriously impairedeven with blood alcohol levels far below the legal minimum. If you have been drinking, don’t drive. Ride with a designated non-drinking driver, call a cab or a friend, or use public transportation. Drinking coffee or tak- ing a cold shower will not make you sober. Similarly, prescription and nonprescription drugs affect your alertness, perception andreaction time. Consu
lt with your doctor or
pharmacist before driving while under the influence of any of these medications.
N00628601069
The original equipment floor mat providedwith your vehicle was specifically designed for your vehicle. Al
ways properly position
the floor mat and assure it does not interferewith operation of the pedals. Always use the
retaining clip on the driver’s floorboard to secure the floor mat. When used, this clip willhelp prevent the floor mat from moving for- ward and possibly interfering with the opera- tion of the pedals. To prevent the floor matfrom moving forward and possibly interfering with the operation of the pedals, Mitsubishi Motors Genuine floor mats are recom-mended.
N00628701099
1. Place the floor mat to fit the shape of the floorboard. 2. Align the floor mat with the installationholes over the retaining clips. 3. Secure the floor mat with retaining clips.

For a safer and more enjoyable trip, always check for the following:
 Before starting the ve
hicle, make certain
that you and all passengers are seated and wearing their seat belts properly (with children in the rear seat, in appropriaterestraints), and that all the doors are locked.  Move the driver’s seat as far backward as possible, while keeping good visibility, and good control of the steering wheel, brakes, accelerator, and controls. Check the instrument panel indicators and multi- information display for any possible prob-lem.  Similarly, the front
passenger seat should
also be moved as fa
r back as possible.
 Make sure that infants and small children are properly restrained in accordance with all laws and regulations.
Check these by selectin
g the defroster mode,
and set the blower switch on high. You shouldbe able to feel the air blowing against the windshield. Refer to “Defrosti
ng or defogging (wind-
shield, door windows)” on page 7-6, 7-10, 7-17.
NOTE
 The shape of the mat and the number of retaining clips may
vary depending on the
vehicle model.WA R N I N G If a floor mat is the
wrong size or is not
properly installed, it can interfere with the operation of the pedals. Interference with the pedals can cause unintended accelera-tion and/or increase
d stopping distances
resulting in a cras
h and injury. Always
make sure the floor mat does not interferewith the accelerator or brake pedal. Always use the retaining clip on the driver’s floorboard to secure the floor mat. Always install the mat with the correct side facing down. Never install a second mat over or under an existing floor mat. Do not use a floor mat designed for another model vehicle even if it is a Mitsubishi Motors Genuine floor mat. Before driving, be sure to check the fol- lowing:• Periodically check that the floor mat is properly secured with the retaining clips. If you remove the fl
oor mat while clean-
ing the inside of you
r vehicle or for any
other reason, always
check the condition
of the floor mat afte
r it has been rein-
stalled.
• While the vehicle is stopped with theengine off, check that the floor mat is notinterfering with the pedals by depressingthe pedals fully.
