OTE
●Since petrol-powered vehicles have a knock control sys-
tem, you can use unleaded petrol 90 RON in emergencies
if unleaded petrol 95 RON or higher is not available.
In such cases, no adjustments of the engine are necessary.
However, with unleaded petrol of 90 RON engine per-
formance will be reduced.
●Repeatedly driving short distances at very low speeds can
cause deposits in the fuel system and engine, which can
lead to poor starting ability or acceleration. If these prob-
lems occur, add a detergent additive to the petrol when
refuelling. The additive will remove the deposits, thereby
returning the engine to a normal condition. Be sure to use
a genuine MITSUBISHI FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER.
Using an unsuitable additive could cause engine malfunc-
tion. For details, please contact your MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorised Service Point.
Recommended
Petrol-powered vehicles
Unleaded petrol, octane number (EN228)
95 RON or higher
Diesel-powered vehicles
Cetane number (EN590)
51 or higher
CAUTION
!
●With petrol-powered vehicles, the use of leaded fuel
can result in serious damage to the engine and cata-
lytic converter.
●Diesel-powered vehicles are designed to use only die-
sel fuel that meets the EN 590 standard.
Use of any other type of diesel fuel can adversely
affect the engine.

Filling the fuel tank
E00200201321
Fuel tank capacity
2WD models: 63 litres
4WD models: 60 litres
Refuelling
1. Before filling your vehicle with fuel, turn off the engine.
2. The fuel tank filler is located on the rear left side of your
vehicle.
Open the fuel tank filler door by pulling the release lever
located on the side of the driver’s seat.
WARNING
!
●When handling fuel, comply with the safety regula-
tions displayed by garages and filling stations.
●Before removing the fuel cap, be sure to get rid of
your body’s static electricity by touching a metal
part of either the car or the fuel pump. Any static
electricity on your body could create a spark that
will ignite fuel vapour.
●Perform the entire refuelling process (opening the
fuel tank filler door, removing the fuel cap, etc.) by
yourself. Do not allow any other person to come
near the fuel tank filler. Discharge of static electric-
ity from an assisting person might ignite the fuel
vapours, too.
●Do not move away from the fuel tank filler until
refuelling is finished. If you move away and do
something else (for example, cleaning your wind-
screen) partway through the refuelling process, you
could pick up a fresh charge of static electricity.
●If the tank cap must be replaced, use only a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS original part.

4. Insert the filler gun into the tank port as far as it will go.
5. After the second automatic stop, do not fill with fuel any-
more.
6. Reattach the fuel cap.
[Except for 2200 models]
To close, turn the tank filler cap slowly clockwise until
you hear clicking sounds and then gently push the fuel
tank filler door shut.
[For 2200 models]
Fit the fuel cap with the cap handle sideways and turn it
clockwise.
1- Remove
2- Close
For 2200 models
CAUTION
!
●The fuel cap does not turn more than 90 degrees.
Turning it further by force could damage the fuel
cap.
●Since the fuel system may be under pressure,
remove the fuel cap slowly. This relieves any pres-
sure or vacuum that might have built up in the fuel
tank. If you hear a hissing sound from the cap, wait
until it stops before removing the cap. Otherwise,
fuel may spray out and injure you or others.
CAUTION
!
●Do not tilt the filler gun.

General information
Installation of accessories
E00200300598
We recommend you to consult your MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorised Service Point.
●The installation of accessories, optional components, etc.,
should only be carried out within the limits prescribed by
law in your country, and in accordance with the guidelines
and warnings contained within the documents accompa-
nying this vehicle.
●Installing electric components incorrectly could lead to a
fire. See the “Modification/alterations to the electrical or
fuel systems” section within this owner’s manual
●Using a cellular phone or radio set inside the vehicle with-
out an external antenna may cause electrical system inter-
ference, which could lead to unsafe vehicle operation.
●Tyres and wheels which do not meet specifications must
not be used.
Refer to the “Specifications” section for information
regarding wheel and tyre sizes.
Important points!
Due to large number of accessory and replacement parts of dif-
ferent manufactures available in the market, it is not possible,
not only for MITSUBISHI MOTORS, but also a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorised Service Point, to check whether the
attachment or installation of such parts affects the overall
safety of your MITSUBISHI-vehicle.
Even when such parts are officially authorised, for example by
a “general operators permit” (an appraisal for the part) or
through the execution of the part in an officially approved man-
ner of construction, or when a single operation permit follow-
ing the attachment or installation of such parts, it cannot be
deduced from that alone, that the driving safety of your vehi-
cles has not been affected.
Consider also that there basically exists no liability on the part
of the appraiser or the official. Maximum safety can only be
ensured with parts recommended, sold and fitted or installed by
a MITSUBISHI MOTORS authorised Service Point
(MITSUBISHI MOTORS genuine replacement parts and
MITSUBISHI MOTORS accessories). The same also pertains
to modifications of MITSUBISHI vehicles with respect to the
production specifications. For safety reasons, do not attempt
any modifications other than those that follow the recommen-
dations of a MITSUBISHI MOTORS authorised Service Point.
