Air purifier
E00708400561
An
air filter has been incorporated into the air con-
ditioning so that pollen and dust are cleaned from
the air.
Replace the air filter periodically as its ability to
clean the air will be reduced as it collects pollen
and dirt. For the maintenance interval, refer to the
“SERVICE BOOKLET”.
NOTE
l Operation in certain conditions such as driv-
ing on a dusty road and frequent use of the
air conditioning can lead to reduction of serv-
ice life of the filter. When you feel that the
air flow is lower than normal or when the
windscreen or windows start to fog up easily,
replace the air filter.
We recommend you to have it checked. Audio system*

For information on operations of the audio system
for vehicles equipped with MITSUBISHI Multi-Co-
munication system (MMCS), refer to the separate
owner’s manual.
The audio system can only be used when the igni-
tion switch or the operation mode is in ON or ACC. NOTE
l To

listen to the audio system while the en-
gine is not running, turn the ignition switch
to the “ACC” position or put the operation
mode in ACC.
If the ignition switch or the operation mode
is left in ACC, the accessory power will auto-
matically turn off after a certain period of
time and you will no longer be able to use
the audio system. The accessory power
comes on again if the ignition switch or the
engine switch is operated with it in the
“ACC” position. Refer to “ACC power auto-
cutout function” on pages 1-12 and 4-11.
l If a cellular phone is used inside the vehicle,
it may create noise from the audio equip-
ment. This does not mean that anything is
wrong with your audio equipment. In such a
case, use the cellular phone at a place as far
away as possible from the audio equipment.
l If foreign objects or water get into the audio
equipment, or if smoke or a strange odour
comes from it, immediately turn off the au-
dio system. We recommend you to have it
checked. Never try to repair it by yourself.
Avoid continuous usage without inspection
by a qualified person.
l The audio amplifier (if so equipped) is loca-
ted under the front right seat. Do not subject
the amplifier to a strong impact. It could dam-
age the amplifier or malfunctioning could re-
sult. For pleasant driving

The traffic information program standby function
is
turned on (with the TP indicator shown on the dis-
play) and after about 45 seconds since the RDS in-
dicator turns off due to weak signal or the tuning
station is changed over from a TP station to a sta-
tion which does not broadcast traffic information,
the sound will beep 5 times and seeks out a TP sta-
tion in all frequencies automatically.

the emergency broadcast will interrupt the current
program. The volume level is set separately for lis-
tening to normal audio programs and for listening
to emergency broadcasts. The volume level will
