Air purifier
EH14K-Jb
Operate the blower, and the air purifier
incorporated in the heater or air condition-
ing will operate to purify air in the passen-
ger compartment.
NOTE
The air purifier contains a filter. The dirt
settles on the filter, decreasing the air puri-
fication efficiency. It is, therefore, recom-
mended that the filter be cleaned every 12
months or every 12, 000 km (7,400 miles).
For the detail, refer to your authorized MIT-
SUBISHI dealer.
Important operation tips for air
conditioning
EH04JALc
(1) Park the vehicle in the shade.
Parking in the hot sun will make the
vehicle interior extremely hot, and it will
require more to cool the interior.
If it is necessary to park in the sun,
open the windows for the first few min-
utes of air conditioning operation to
expel the hot air.
(2) Close the windows when the air con-
ditioning is in use. The entry of out-
side air through open windows will
reduce the cooling efficiency.
(3) Too much cooling is not good for the
health. The inside air temperature
should only be 5 to 6°C below the out-
side air temperature.
(4) When operating the system, make sure
the air intake, which is located in front
of the windscreen, is free of obstruc-
tions such as leaves. Leaves col-
lected in the air-intake plenum may
reduce air flow and plug the plenum
water drains.

EK21A-Ad
In order to maintain the value of your
vehicle, it is necessary to perform regular
maintenance using the proper proce-
dures. Always maintain your vehicle in
compliance with any environmental pollu-
tion control regulations. Carefully select the
materials used for washing, etc., to be sure
that they do not contain corrosives; if in
doubt, contact your authorized
MITSUBISHI dealer for assistance in the
selection of these materials.
CAUTION
Cleaning products can be danger-
ous. Some are poisonous. Others
can burst into flame if you strike a
match or drop them on a hot part of
the vehicle. Some are dangerous if
you breathe their fumes in a closed
space. When you use anything in a
container to clean your vehicle,
always follow the instructions and
always open your vehicle doors or
windows when you’re cleaning the
inside. Never use the following to
clean your vehicle:
•Gasoline•Paint Thinner
•Benzine•Turpentine
•Naphtha•Lacquer Thinner
•Carbon Tetrachloride
•Nail Polish Remover
•Acetone
These are all dangerous, and can
damage your vehicle.
Cleaning the inside of your
vehicle
EK23A-Ad
After cleaning the inside of your vehicle with
water, cleaner or similar, wipe and dry in a
shady, well-ventilated area.
NOTE
Always read the instructions on the cleaner
label.Plastic, vinyl leather, fabric and
flocked parts
EK24A-Aa

Chrome parts
EK06A-Aa
In order to prevent spots and corrosion of
chrome parts, wash with water, dry thor-
oughly, and apply a special protective coat-
ing. This should be done more frequently
in winter.Aluminium wheels*
EK35A-Af
A protective coating is provided over the
aluminium type wheels.
Clean aluminium wheels with a cleaner
designed for use on aluminium and apply
an appropriate protection agent.
NOTE
(1) When cleaning aluminium type wheels,
do not use abrasive cleaners. Wheels
exposed to sea water or road chemi-
cals should be cleaned as soon as
possible.
(2) Brushes may damage the aluminium
wheel surface. Always use a sponge,
chamois leather, etc.
(3) Do not apply hot water directly from the
steam cleaner or similar to the wheel
surface.
Window glass
EK10A-E
Window glass can normally be cleaned
using only a sponge and water.
Glass cleaner can be used to remove oil,
grease, dead insects, etc. After washing the
glass, wipe dry with a clean, dry, soft cloth.
Never use the same cloth to wipe the win-
dow glass as would be used to wipe the
paintwork; wax from the painted surfaces
could adhere to the glass and reduce its
transparency and visibility.
NOTE
To clean the inside of the backdoor win-
dow, always use a soft cloth and wipe the
window glass along the demister heater
element so as not to cause damage.Wiper blades
EK11A-Aa
Use a soft cloth and glass cleaner to
remove grease, dead insects, etc., from the
wiper blades. Replace the wiper blades
when they no longer wipe properly (Refer
to page 9-19).
Cleaning the sunroof*
EK30A-Ab
Clean the inside of the sunroof with a soft
cloth. Hard deposits should be wiped away
with a cloth dipped in warm, neutral deter-
gent solution. Wipe away the solution with
a sponge dipped in fresh water.
NOTE
The surface treatment on the inside of the
glass may be removed if a hard cloth or
organic solvent (benzine, thinner, etc.) is
used.

Check the tyres for cuts, cracks and other
damage. Replace the tyres if there are
deep cuts or cracks. Also check each tyre
for pieces of metal or pebbles.
The use of worn tyres can be very danger-
ous because of the greater chance of skid-
ding or hydroplaning. The tread depth of
the tyres must exceed 1.6 mm in order for
the tyres to meet the minimum require-
ment for use.
