CAUTION
l For petrol-powered vehicles, the use of lea-
ded fuel can result in serious damage to the
engine and catalytic converter. Do not use
leaded fuel.
l Diesel-powered vehicles are designed to use
only diesel fuel that meets the EN 590 stand-
ard.
Use of any other type of diesel fuel (bio die-
sel, methyl ester, etc.) would adversely af-
fect the engine’s performance and durability.
NOTE
l
Vehicles labelled “95 + OCTANE” have the
knock control system so that you can use un-
leaded petrol 90 RON as an emergent meas-
ure in case unleaded petrol 95 RON or high-
er 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 90 RON, the engine performance lev-
el is reduced.
l Due to the separation of paraffin, the fluidity
of the fuel decreases considerably as the
temperature falls.
Because of this fact there are two kinds of
fuel: “summer” and “winter”.
This must be considered in winter use.
Select either of the two kinds of fuel in ac-
cordance with ambient temperature.
Above -5 °C: “Summer” diesel
Below -5 °C: “Winter” diesel
When travelling abroad, find out in advance
about the fuels served in local service sta-
tions.
NOTE
l
In petrol-powered vehicles, repeatedly driv-
ing short distances at low speeds can cause
deposits to form in the fuel system and en-
gine, resulting in poor starting and poor ac-
celeration. If these problems occur, you are
advised to add a detergent additive to the
petrol when you refuel the vehicle. The addi-
tive will remove the deposits, thereby return-
ing the engine to a normal condition. Be sure
to use a MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENU-
INE FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER. Using an
unsuitable additive could make the engine
malfunction. For details, please contact your
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice 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.
