Your vehicle is designed to use unleaded gas-

oline only. It is equipped with a fuel tank

filler pipe especially designed to accept only

a small diameter unleaded gasoline dispens-

ing nozzle.

In the United States, fuel suppliers are

required by law to add detergents to their gas-

oline to minimize fuel-injector fouling and

minimize intake-valve deposits. Detergent

gasoline helps keep your engine in tune and

your emission-control system working prop-

erly.

Your vehicle is designed to operate on

unleaded gasoline having a minimum octane

number of 87 [(MON+RON)/2] or 91 RON.

Gasoline sold at some service stations con-

tains oxygenates such as ethanol, although

the oxygenates may not be identified by those

names. Oxygenates are required in some

areas of the country. Such fuel can be used in

your vehicle.

A mixture of up to 10% ethanol (grain alco-

hol) and 90% unleaded gasoline may be used

in your vehicle, provided the octane number

is at least as high as that recommended for

unleaded gasoline.

Do not operate your vehicle on gasoline con-

taining methanol (wood alcohol). Using this

type of alcohol could adversely affect the

vehicle’s performance and damage critical

parts of the vehicle’s fuel system.

Many areas of the country require the use of

cleaner burning fuel referred to as “Reformu-

lated Gasoline”.

Reformulated gasoline contains oxygenates

and is specially blended to reduce vehicle

emissions and improve air quality.

Mitsubishi Motors Corporation strongly sup-

ports the use of reformulated gasoline. Prop-

erly blended reformulated gasoline has no

adverse effect on vehicle performance or the

durability of engine and fuel system.

MMT is a manganese-containing metallic

additive that is blended into some gasolines

to increase the octane number. Mitsubishi

Motors Corporation recommends using gaso-

lines without MMT.

WARNING

 Gasoline is highly flammable and explo-

sive. You could be burned, seriously

injured or killed when handling it. When-

ever you refuel your vehicle, stop the

engine and keep flames, sparks, and

smoking materials away from the vehicle.

Always handle fuel in well-ventilated out-

door areas.

CAUTION

 Using leaded gasoline in your vehicle will

damage the engine, catalytic converter, and

the oxygen sensors. Also, using leaded gaso-

line is illegal, and will void your warranty

coverage of the engine, catalytic converter,

and oxygen sensors.
