GENERAL DESCRIPTION
HEATER, AIR CONDITIONING AND VENTILATION55-2
GENERAL DESCRIPTIONM2551001500040
The blower, heater, and evaporator have been inte-
grated with the heater and A/C system to achieve a
greater fan power and noise reduction.
FEATURES
.
ENHANCEMENTS IN COMFORT
•With the adoption of fully-automatic A/C, the out-
side/inside air circulation switching, air outlet, and
outlet air temperature are automatically con
-
trolled according to the ambient temperature,
solar radiation, and passenger compartment tem
-
perature so that the optimum air conditioner is
achieved.
•By the adoption of clean air filter, the air quality
inside the passenger compartment has been
enhanced.
.
ENHANCEMENTS IN OPERATION
PERFORMANCE
•Operability has been enhanced by the adoption
of large triple dial.
•Customise function has been added for the
enhanced convenience.
.
ENHANCEMENTS IN FUEL ECONOMY
•The high efficiency compressor with a 2-step pro-
file oil separator has been installed, thus enhanc-
ing the fuel economy.
•The idle-up speed is controlled in two steps to
secure the air cooling performance during sum
-
mer and to enhance the fuel economy in the sea-
sons with moderate temperature.
•Enhancement of fuel economy by the cooling fan
control depending on the refrigerant pressure and
vehicle speed.
.
ENHANCEMENT IN SAFETY
•A/C system is stopped when the air bags are
deployed.
•Crushable space has been adopted to heater unit
to reduce the risk of passenger injuries in case of
a collision.
.
GLOBAL ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION
•New refrigerant system (HFC134a) has been
adopted.
•By the optimisation of A/C system, the refrigerant
charging amount has been reduced.
•Clean air filter media and its cover are separated
to reduce waste materials.
.
ENHANCEMENTS IN SERVICE QUALITY
•Reduction of refrigerant gas leakage and
enhancement in serviceability by incorporating
condenser and receiver
•Clean air filter is installed to the backside of glove
box to facilitate the filter replacement.
.
ENHANCEMENTS IN RESPONSIBILITY
Reliable information transmission is achieved by
connecting A/C-ECU and each ECU via CAN com
-
munication.

A/C COMPRESSOR

A/C COMPRESSORM2551001100268
HIGH EFFICIENCY COMPRESSOR WITH
INTEGRATED OIL SEPARATOR
High efficiency compressor with integrated oil sepa-
rator has been adopted to enhance fuel economy by
reducing the A/C operating rate.
MAGNETIC CLUTCH WITH THERMAL
FUSE
At the compressor lock, the thermal fuse integrated
in the magnet clutch is blown due to the frictional
heat against the compressor in order to reduce risk
of the drive belt breakage. The thermal fuse, together
with the coil, is coated with resin to enhance resis
-
tance to corrosion.
2-STEP PROFILE COMPRESSOR
The centre area of the scroll in the compressor pro-
vides 2-step profile, and thickness of area "B" shown
in the figure has been increased to enhance
strength. With this feature, thickness of area "A"
shown where lesser load is applied is reduced, thus
compressor performance is enhanced by compress
-
ing refrigerant even in central area, comparing to the
previous model.
CONDENSERM2551001400140
The condenser has been integrated with the radiator (cooling
module) to optimise ventilation and reduce weight.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
ENGINE MECHANICAL11A-2
GENERAL DESCRIPTIONM2112000101162
This model is equipped with a newly developed 4B11
engine. It is a 4-cylinder, double overhead camshaft
(DOHC) engine with a 2.0-L cylinder displacement.
This engine has adopted the following features:
•MIVEC (MITSUBISHI INNOVATIVE VALVE TIM-
ING ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM) for
both the intake and exhaust valves
•Cylinder block made of an aluminum alloy
•Valve train with direct-acting valve tappets
•Silent timing chain

CYLINDER BLOCK
A cylinder block made of an aluminum alloy has
been adopted for weight reduction.
5 bearings are used for the crankshaft journals and
the No. 3 bearing sustains the thrust load of the
crankshaft.
The water jacket is the full Siamese type.
An oil jet is used in front of the cylinder block to sup-
ply engine oil to the timing chain.

PISTONS
The pistons are made of a special aluminum alloy.
Their weight has been reduced by lowering their
overall height and increasing the depression at each
end of the piston pin.
The piston pin hole center is offset 0.8 mm (0.031 in)
towards the thrust side of the piston center.
The skirt portion along the perimeter of the piston is
finished with streaks that excel in oil retention and
seizure resistance.
PISTON PINS
The piston pins are the semi-floating type. Each pin
is press-fit and secured in the small end of the con
-
necting rod, while it floats in the piston.
