Unleaded petrol octane num-
ber (EN228)
98 RON or higher
Your engine is designed to provide satisfactory
performance by using unleaded petrol octane num-
ber 98 RON or higher. In order to maintain engine
performance and exhaust system durability, use un-
leaded petrol octane number 98 RON or higher.
CAUTION
l
The use of leaded fuel can result in seri-
ous damage to the engine and catalytic
converter. Do not use leaded fuel.
NOTE
l
Your vehicles have the knock control system
so that you can use unleaded petrol 95 RON
as an emergent measure in case unleaded
petrol 98 RON or higher is not available on
journey, etc. In such a case, you don’t need
to adjust the engine specially.
In case of using unleaded petrol 95 RON, the
engine performance level is reduced.
l
Repeatedly driving short distances at low
speeds can cause deposits to form in the fuel
system and engine, resulting in poor starting
and poor acceleration. If these problems oc-
cur, you are advised to add a detergent addi-
tive to the gasoline when you refuel the vehi-
cle. The additive will remove the deposits,
thereby returning the engine to a normal con-
dition. Be sure to use a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS GENUINE FUEL SYSTEM
CLEANER. Using an unsuitable additive
could make the engine malfunction. For de-
tails, please contact a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
l
Poor quality petrol can cause problems such
as difficult starting, stalling, engine noise
and hesitation. If you experience these prob-
lems, try another brand and/or grade of pet-
rol.
If the check engine warning lamp flashes,
have the system checked as soon as possible
at a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point.
