Installation of accessories
E00200300774
We recommend you to consult your MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point. ●
The installation of accessories
, optional parts, should only
be carried out within the limits prescribed by law in your country, and in accordance wi
th the guidelines fitting
instructions and warnings contained within the documentsaccompanying the parts or accessories.
●
Improper installation of el
ectrical components may cause
an electrical fire if incorrectly
fitted. Please refer to Modi-
fication/alteration to the electri
cal or fuel systems section
within this owner’s manual.
●
Using a cellular phone or radio set inside the vehicle with- out an external antenna may
cause electrical system inter-
ference, which could lead to
unsafe vehicle operation.
●
Tyres and wheels which do not meet specifications must not be used. Refer to the “Specifications
” section for information
regarding wheel and tyre sizes.
●
When fitting accessories, ensure that maximum gross vehicle weight and maximum axle weight are not exceeded.
Important points!Due to large number of accessory
and replacement parts of dif-
ferent manufactures available in the market, it is not possible,not only for MITSUBISHI MOTORS, but also for a MIT- SUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point, to check
whether the attachment or installa
tion of such parts affects the
overall safety of your MITSUBISHI-vehicle. Even when such parts are offici
ally authorized, for example by
a “general operators permit”
(an appraisal for the part) or
through the execution of the part
in an officially approved man-
ner of construction, or when a single operation permit follow- ing the attachment or installation of such parts, it cannot be deduced from that alone, that the driving safety of your vehiclehas not been affected. Consider also that there basically
exists no liability on the part
of the appraiser or the official.
Only in the case of parts (MIT-
SUBISHI MOTORS original repl
acement or exchange parts as
well as MITSUBISHI MOTORS
genuine accessories) that are
recommended and released by a MITSUBISHI MOTORSAuthorized Service Point and that
are attached or installed by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author
ized Service Point can you
assume, that optimal safety ha
s been provided. The same also
pertains to modifications of
MITSUBISHI vehicle with respect
to the production specifications. For your own safety, in such cases, you should only undert
ake modifications according to
the recommendations of a MI
TSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point.

RDS uses PI (program identification) signal and AF (alterna- tive frequency) list transmitted in addition to the normal FM broadcasting programs, and picks
up the FM stations that are
transmitting the same program from the AF list and automati-cally tunes to the station with the strongest signal intensity. Therefore, you can co
ntinue listening to one program in, for
example, a long dist
ance driving without retuning to the other
station transmitting the same
program when you are leaving
the service area of the cu
rrently receiving station.
The RDS radio also features th
e limited reception of the pro-
gram types, the break-in reception of the traffic announcement to the EON (enhanced other network) and emergency broad- cast, and the limited/
unlimited reception of
the regional pro-
grams.AF (Alternative Frequencies) function
