Fuel economy is dependent on many factors.
Your personal driving habits can have a sig-
nificant effect on your fuel use. Several rec-
ommendations 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) when
traffic, 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 vehicle well main-
tained. A poorly maintained engine
wastes fuel and costs money.
 Do not overload your vehicle.

Drunk driving is one of the most frequent
causes of accidents.
Your driving ability can be seriously impaired
even 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 and
reaction time. Consult with your doctor or
pharmacist before driving while under the
influence of any of these medications.

The original equipment floor mat provided
with your vehicle was specifically designed
for your vehicle. Always properly position
the floor mat and assure it does not interfere
with operation of the pedals. Always use the
retaining clip on the driver’s floorboard to
secure the floor mat. When used, this clip will
help prevent the floor mat from moving for-
ward and possibly interfering with the opera-
tion of the pedals. To prevent the floor mat
from moving forward and possibly interfering
with the operation of the pedals, Mitsubishi
genuine floor mats are recommended.
