By setting the blower speed selection dial
and mode selection dial to the“AUT”
(AUTO) position and select the desired
temperature, the air conditioning oper-
ates to cool or warm automatically in order
to maintain the selected temperature. To
stop the air conditioning, set the blower

You can also operate it manually if neces-
sary.
The air conditioning can only be oper-
ated while the engine is running.

compressor, the air condition-
ing operation indicator lamp
blinks. Stop the vehicle in a safe
place, turn off the engine, then
restart the engine. If the air con-

problem. If it does blink, have it
checked at an authorized MIT-

(In the case, the air conditioning indi-
cator lamp will not change.)
(2) Do not set the temperature control dial
around the max. cool position. Cool air
will blow against the window glasses

If the vehicle breaks down
EN40B-Bc
If the vehicle breaks down on the road,
move it to the shoulder and use the haz-
ard warning flashers.If the engine stops/failsVehicle operation and control are affected
if the engine stops. Before moving the
vehicle to a safe area be aware of the
following:
1. The brake booster becomes inopera-
tive and the pedal effort will increase.
Press down the brake pedal harder than
usual.
2. Since the power steering pump is no
longer operative, the steering wheel
feels heavy when turning it. Turn the
wheel with more effort than usual.
Operation under adverse driv-
ing conditions
EI43AAKa
If your vehicle is stuck in sand, mud
or snowIf the vehicle becomes stuck in snow, sand,
or mud, it can often be moved with a rock-
ing motion. Move the selector lever alter-
nately between the Sports-mode and “R”
(REVERSE) position (with manual trans-
mission, between 1st and Reverse), while
applying slight pressure to the accelera-
tor pedal.
Avoid racing the engine or spinning the
wheels. Prolonged efforts to free a stuck
vehicle may result in overheating and trans-
mission failure. Allow the engine to idle for
a few minutes to let the transmission cool
between rocking attempts.
If the vehicle remains stuck after several
rocking attempts, seek other assistance.
WARNING
When attempting to rock your vehicle
out of a stuck position, be sure that
the area around the vehicle is clear of
people and physical objects. The
rocking motion may cause the
vehicle to suddenly launch forward
or backward, causing injury or dam-
age to nearby people or objects.

On a flooded road(1) Avoid flooded roads. Water could enter
the brake discs, resulting in tempo-
rarily ineffective brakes. In such cases,
lightly depress the brake pedal to see
if the brakes operate properly. If they do
not, lightly depress the pedal several
times while driving in order to dry the
brake pads.
(2) When driving in rain or on a road with
many puddles a layer of water may
form between the tyres and the road
surface.
This reduces a tyre’s frictional resis-
tance on the road, resulting in loss of
steering stability and braking capabil-
ity.
To cope with this, observe the follow-
ing items:
(a)Drive your vehicle at a slow speed.
(b)Do not drive on worn tyres. Always
maintain the specified tyre inflation
pressures.
On a snow-covered or frozen road(1) When driving on a snow-covered or fro-
zen road, it is recommended that you
use snow tyres or tyre chains.
Refer to the“Snow tyres”and“Tyre
chains”sections.
(2) Avoid high-speed operation, sudden
acceleration, abrupt brake applica-
tion and sharp cornering.
(3) Depressing the brake pedal during
travel on such a road may cause tyre
slippage and skidding. When traction
between the tyres and the road is
reduced the wheels may skid and the
vehicle cannot readily be brought to a
stop by conventional braking tech-
niques. Braking will differ, depending
upon whether you have anti-lock
brakes (ABS). If you do have ABS,
brake by pressing the brake pedal
hard, and keeping it pressed. If you do
not have ABS, pump the brake pedal
with short rapid jabs, each time fully
applying and fully releasing for great-
est effect.
(4) Allow extra distance between your
vehicle and the vehicle in front of you,
and avoid sudden braking.
