8. Air conditioning operation indicator
This illuminates when the air conditioning
is operating.
CAUTION
In the 3500 models, if the air condi-
tioning operation indicator blinks on
and off, there may be a fault with the
air conditioner. If this happens, stop
the vehicle in a safe place, switch the
engine off, then switch it on again. If
the air conditioning operation indi-
cator stops blinking after this, there
is nothing wrong. If it starts blink-
ing again, have the air conditioning
system checked at an authorised
MITSUBISHI dealer.
