Your vehicle is designe
d to use unleaded gas-
oline only. It is equipped with a fuel tank filler pipe specifically
designed to accept only
a small diameter unlea
ded gasoline dispens-
ing nozzle. In the United States, fuel suppliers are required by law to add detergents to their gas-
oline to minimize fuel-injector clogging and minimize intake-valve
deposits. Detergent
gasoline helps keep your engine in tune and your emission-control system working prop- erly. Your vehicle is de
signed to operate on
unleaded gasoline having a minimum octane number of 87 [(MON+RON)/2] or 91 RON. Gasoline sold at some
service stations con-
tains 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. A mixture of up to 10 % ethanol (grain alco- hol) 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.
Do not operate your vehicle on gasoline con- taining methanol (wood alcohol). Using this type of alcohol could adversely affect thevehicle’s performance
and damage critical
parts of the vehicl
e’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 ble
nded to reduce vehicle
emissions and improve air quality. Mitsubishi Motors Corporation strongly sup- ports the use of reformulated gasoline. Prop-erly blended reformul
ated gasoline has no
adverse effect on vehicle performance or the durability of the engine and fuel system. MMT is a manganese-
containing metallic
additive that is ble
nded into some gasolines
to increase the octane number. Mitsubishi Motors Corporation recommends using gaso-lines without MMT.
Fuel selection
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-ever you refuel your
vehicle, stop the
engine and keep fl
ames, sparks, and
smoking 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, ca
talytic 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.

Use of gasolines blended with MMT may adversely affect performance, and cause themalfunction indicator on your instrument panel to come on. If this happens, contact an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or arepair facility of your
choice for assistance.
Your vehicle may have
been designed to sat-
isfy California’s low-emission regulations based on clean-burning low-sulfur gasoline.Gasoline sold in parts of the country other than California is allowed to have a higher sulfur content. Using such gasoline couldadversely affect the ve
hicle’s catalytic con-
verter and cause the e
ngine malfunction indi-
cator (“SERVICE ENGINE SOON” or“Check engine light”) to come on. Illumina- tion of this indicator while using high-sulfur gasoline does not necessarily mean the vehi-cle’s emission-control system is malfunction- ing. Your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer may suggest usi
ng a different, lower-
sulfur brand of unleaded gasoline to deter- mine if the problem
is fuel-related.
N00301102005
Sulfur in gasoline
NOTE
Poor-quality gasoline
can cause problems
such as hard starting, stalling during idling,abnormal engine noise
, and poor accelera-
tion. If you experience any of these prob- lems, try using a differ
ent brand of gasoline.
If the engine malfunc
tion indicator (“SER-
VICE ENGINE SOON”
or “Check engine
light”) flashes, have
the vehicle inspected as
soon as possible by the nearest authorizedMitsubishi Motors dealer
or a repair facility
of your choice.  Repeatedly driving short distances at low speeds can cause deposits to form in the fuel system and engine, resulting in hard startingand poor acceleration.
If these problems
occur, you are advised to add a detergent additive to the gasoline when you refuel thevehicle. The additive
will remove the depos-
its, thereby returning the engine to a normal condition. Be sure to use a MitsubishiMotors Genuine cleani
ng additive. Using an
unsuitable additive c
ould make an engine
malfunction. For details,
please contact the
nearest authorized Mits
ubishi Motors dealer.
Filling the fuel tank
WA R N I N GWhen handling fuel, comply with the safety regulations displayed by garages and filling stations.
 Gasoline is highly flammable and explo- sive. You could be burned, seriouslyinjured or killed when handling it. Whenrefueling your vehicle,
always turn the
engine off and keep
away from flames,
sparks, and smoking materials. Alwayshandle 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 thecar or fuel pump. Any
static electricity on
your body could create a spark that ignites fuel vapor. Perform the whole
refueling process
(opening the fuel tank filler door, remov-ing the fuel tank filler cap, etc.) by your- self; do not let any other person near the fuel tank filler. If you allowed a person tohelp you and that person was carrying static electricity,
fuel vapor could be
ignited. Do not move away from the fuel tank filler until refueling is fi
nished. If you moved
away and did something
else (for example,
sitting on a seat) part-way through the refueling process, you could pick up afresh charge of st
atic electricity.
Be careful not to inhale fuel vapor. Fuel contains toxic substances. Keep the doors and wi
ndows closed while
refueling the vehicle. If they were open, fuel vapor could get into the cabin.WA R N I N G

WA R N I N G Since the fuel system may be under pres- sure, remove the fuel tank filler capslowly. This relieves
any pressure or vac-
uum 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 others.CAUTION Your vehicle can onl
y be operated using
unleaded gasoline. Seri
ous engine and cata-
lytic converter
damage will result if leaded
gasoline is filled into these vehicles, and consequently, this must
never be attempted.

Advanced automobile manufacturing tech- niques permit you to operate your new vehi- cle without requiring
a long break-in period
of low-speed driving. However, you can add to the future perfor- mance and economy of your vehicle byobserving the followi
ng precautions during
the first 300 miles (500 km). Drive your vehicle at moderate speeds during the break-in period.  Avoid revving the engine.  Avoid rough driving such as sudden starts, sudden acceleration, prolonged high- speed driving and sudden braking. These would have a detrimen
tal effect on the
engine and also cause increased fuel and oil consumption, wh
ich could result in
malfunction of the engine components. Beparticularly careful to
avoid full accelera-
tion while in low shift position (low gears). Do not overload the ve
hicle. Stay within
the seating capacity. (Refer to “Cargo load precautions” on page 6-10.) Do not use this vehi
cle for trailer towing.
