In diesel-powered vehicles, poor-quality die-
sel fuel can cause deposits form in the injec-
tor, resulting in black smoke and rough idling.
If these problems occur, you are advised to
add a cleaning additive to the diesel fuel
when you refuel the vehicle. The additive
will break up and remove the deposits, there-
by returning the engine to a normal condition.
Be sure to use a genuine MITSUBISHI DIE-
SEL FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER. Using an
unsuitable additive could make the engine
malfunction. For details, please contact your
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point.

WARNING
l
When handling fuel, comply with the safe-
ty regulations displayed by garages and
filling stations.
l
Before removing the fuel tank filler tube
cap, be sure to get rid of your body's stat-
ic electricity by touching a metal part of
the car or fuel pump. Any static electrici-
ty on your body could create a spark that
ignites fuel vapour.
l
Perform the whole refueling process
(opening the fuel tank filler door, remov-
ing the fuel tank filler tube cap, etc.) by
yourself. Do not let any other person
come near the fuel tank filler. If you al-
lowed a person to help you and that per-
son was carrying static electricity, fuel va-
pour could be ignited.
l
Do not move away from the fuel tank fill-
er door until refueling is finished. If you
moved away and did something else (for
example, cleaning your windscreen) part-
way through the refueling process, you
could pick up a fresh charge of static elec-
tricity.
l
If the fuel tank filler tube cap must be re-
placed,
use
only
a
MITSUBISHI
MOTORS original part.
