Use of gasolines blended with MMT may adversely affect performance, and cause the malfunction indicator on your instrument panel to come on. If this happens, contact anauthorized 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 regulations based on clean-burning low-sulfur gasoline. Gasoline sold in parts of the country otherthan California is allowed to have a higher sulfur 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 necessarily mean the vehicle’s emission-control system ismalfunctioning. 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.
N00301101923
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.
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 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 electricity onyour body could 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 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.

All-wheel drive vehicles: 15.8 gal (60 L) Front-wheel drive vehicles: 15.3 gal (58 L) 1. Before filling with fuel, stop the engine. 2. The fuel tank filler is located on the rear driver side of your vehicle. The fuel tank filler door can be openedfrom inside the vehicle with the fuel tank filler door release le
ver located at the left
side of the driver’s seat.
3. Open the fuel tank filler pipe by slowly turning the fuel tank filler cap counter- clockwise. 4. While filling with fuel, hang the fuel cap cord on the hook located on the inside of the fuel tank filler door.
5. To fill with fuel correctly depends mainly on correct handling of the fuel filler noz-zle. Do not tilt the nozzle. Insert the noz- zle in the fuel tank filler port as far as it goes. 6. When the nozzle stops automatically, do not try to add more fuel.
 Keep the doors and windows closed while refueling the vehicle. If they were open, fuel vapor could get into the cabin.
Fuel tank capacity Refueling
WA R N I N G
1- Remove 2- Close
WA R N I N G Since the fuel system may be under pres- sure, remove the fuel tank filler cap slowly. This relieves any pressure or vac- uum that might have built up in the fuel tank. If the cap is venting vapor or if youhear a hissing sound, wait until the sound stops before removing the cap. Otherwise, fuel may spray out, injuring you or others.CAUTION Your vehicle can only be operated using unleaded gasoline. Serious engine and cata-lytic 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 paint- work. If fuel spills on the paintwork, wipe itoff with a soft cloth.

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 by observing the following precautions during the first 300 miles (500 km).Drive your vehicle at moderate speeds duringthe 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 detrimental effect on the engine and also cause increased fuel andoil consumption, which could result in malfunction of the engine components. Be particularly careful to avoid full accelera-tion while in low shift position (low gears).  Do not overload the vehicle. Stay within the seating capacity. (Refer to “Cargo load precautions” on page 6-10.)  Do not use this vehicle for trailer towing.

N00509101859
[For vehicles equipped with the Free-hand Advanced Security Transmitter (F.A.S.T.- key)] For information on operations for vehiclesequipped with the Free-hand Advanced Secu- rity Transmitter (F.A.S.T.-key), refer to “Free-hand Advanced Security Transmitter(F.A.S.T.-key): Electronic immobilizer (Anti- theft starting system)” on page 5-23. [Except for vehicles equipped with the Free- hand Advanced Security Transmitter(F.A.S.T.-key)] The electronic immobilizer is designed to sig- nificantly reduce the possibility of vehicletheft. The purpose of the system is to immo- bilize the vehicle if an invalid start is
attempted. A valid start attempt can only be achieved (subject to certain conditions) using a key “registered” to the immobilizer system. All of the keys provided with your new vehi-cle have been programmed to the vehicle’s electronics.
• Keep away from devices that produce mag- netism, such as audio systems, computers and televisions. • Keep away from devices that emit strong electromagnetic waves, such as cellular phones, wireless devices and high fre- quency equipment (including medicaldevices). • Do not clean with ultrasonic cleaners.• Do not leave the key where it may be exposed to high temperature or high humid-ity.
 If you lose your key, to prevent the theft of the vehicle immediately contact an autho- rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. If you notify an authorized MitsubishiMotors dealer of the key number, they can make a new key. The key number is stamped on the key number plate. Keep the key num-ber plate in a safe place separate from the key itself.  No keys other than those registered in advance can be used to start the engine. Refer to “Electronic immobilizer (Anti-theftstarting system)” on page 5-4. Refer to “Free-hand Advanced Security Transmitter (F.A.S.T.-key): “Electronic immobilizer (Anti-theft starting system)” on page 5-23.NOTE
 When the theft-alarm is in the system opera- tional status, the alarm operates if a door or liftgate is opened after using the key, the door lock knob or the power door lock switch to unlock the vehicle.  The system does not enter the preparation status if the keyless entry system or theF.A.S.T.-key was not used to lock the vehi- cle.

Only keys that have been programmed to the vehicle’s electronics can be used to start the vehicle. If you lose the key, you can order a key from your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer byreferring to the key number. To prevent vehicle theft, the ID code for the vehicle keys must be changed.
Take your vehicle and all remaining keys to your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer to have your ID code changed. To add a key, you must already have 2 regis- tered keys. You need to register the ID code to the vehicle.Registering the ID code can be done by your-self (except for vehicles sold in Canada), or by your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. For you to register the ID code yourself, fol-low the “Customer key programming” proce- dure below. If you choose to have your authorizedMitsubishi Motors dealer register the ID code, take your vehicle and all remaining keys to your authorized Mitsubishi Motorsdealer.
• When the key grip contacts metal of another key • When the key contacts or is close to other immobilizer keys (including keys of othervehicles)
 In cases like the above, move the offending object(s) away from the key and turn the key back to the “ACC” or “OFF” position. Then try to start the engine again. If the enginedoes not start, contact an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.  The key may not operate properly when it is near an object or facility that emits strong electromagnetic waves.NOTE
 Electronic immobilizer is not compatible with commercially available remote starting systems. Use of commercially available remote starting systems may result in vehicle starting problems and a lo
ss of security pro-
tection.  A system failure is suspected when the igni- tion switch is turned to the “START” posi- tion, and the engine does not start. In such a case, contact an authorized MitsubishiMotors dealer.CAUTION Do not make any alterations or additions to the immobilizer system. Alterations or addi- tions could cause failure of the immobilizer.
