WARNING
l
Do not move away from the fuel tank fill-
er until refueling is finished. If you moved
away and did something else (for exam-
ple, sitting on a seat) part-way through
the refueling process, you could pick up a
fresh charge of static electricity.
l
Be careful not to inhale fuel vapour. Fuel
contains toxic substances.
l
Keep the doors and windows closed while
refueling the vehicle. If they were open,
fuel vapour could get into the cabin.
l
If the tank cap must be replaced, use only
a MITSUBISHI MOTORS genuine part.
CAUTION
l
The fuel in the fuel tank may not be con-
sumed and it may stagnate for a long time
depending on the use situation of the vehi-
cle, the quality of fuel may change, and it
may have a bad influence on the engine or
the parts of a fuel system.
Observe the following instructions for pre-
vention.
Press the battery charge switch to start the
engine within three months at once.
Refer to “Battery charge switch” on page
7-22.
CAUTION
Refill the fuel more than 15 litres at once
within three months. If the fuel remaining
display will be below half, you can refill
the fuel more than 15 litres certainly.
Refer to “Fuel remaining display screen”
on page 6-10.
Fuel tank capacity

Refueling
1. Before filling with fuel, stop the plug-in
hybrid EV system.
2. The fuel tank filler is located on the rear
left side of your vehicle.
Open the fuel tank filler door by pulling
the release lever located on the side of

CAUTION
l
Since the fuel system may be under pressure,
remove the fuel tank filler tube cap slowly.
This relieves any pressure or vacuum that
might have built up in the fuel tank. If you
hear a hissing sound, wait until it stops be-
fore removing the cap. Otherwise, fuel may
spray out, injuring you or others.
