inal position with a “click” when ready.
Pull it out for use.
After use, insert the lighter to its original posi-
tion in the socket.
NOTE
Do not leave the cigarette lighter removed
from its socket, because the socket might
become clogged by foreign material and be
short - circuited.
CAUTION
(1) Do not touch heating element or
lighter housing, hold the knob
only as burns may occur.
(2) Do not allow children to operate
or play with the cigarette lighter
as burns may occur.
(3) Something is wrong with the ciga-
rette lighter if it does not pop back
out within approximately 30 sec-
onds of being pushed in.
Leaving the cigarette lighter
pushed in for an extended period
could cause fire. If it does not pop
out by itself, pull it out and have
the problem corrected at an auth-
orized MITSUBISHI dealer.
(4) Do not leave the cigarette lighter
pushed in or insert the cigarette
lighter from another vehicle.
Otherwise, the lighter may over-
heat and cause fire.
(5) It is recommended that only the
lighter be inserted in its socket.
Use of “plug - in” type accessories
may damage the socket and result
in poor retention of the lighter.
