Wind deflector
(if so equipped)
N00505800024
The wind deflector reduces turbulent airflow inside the vehicle
for greater comfort when driving with the electric convertible
top open.NOTE
The optional wind deflector is stored in a bag in the trunk.
To prevent damage it should always be kept in this bag
when not installed. Do not place heavy objects (e.g. crates
or heavy shopping bags) on top of the wind deflector.
Installing the wind deflector1. Open half of the bottom frame (A) and half of the top
frame (B) of the wind deflector as shown by the arrows.
WA R N I N G
!
The two rear seats must not be occupied when the
wind deflector is installed.
Never place any object on the wind deflector. An
object on the wind deflector could cause damage to
the deflector and/or the vehicle. It could be blown
off when the vehicle is in motion.
Adjust the front passenger’s seat so that the seat
does not come in contact with the wind deflector to
ensure that the front passenger’s seat weight sensor
can correctly sense the weight being applied to the
seat.
CAUTION
!
When you adjust the front seats when the wind
deflector is installed, be careful not to push the
backrests into the wind deflector when reclining the
seats or when moving them back.

Operate the electric convertible top manually
N00505600019
If the top fails to close by means of switch operation, check
whether the requirements for operation are all satisfied. Refer
to “Requirements for operation” on page 3-32. If the require-
ments are all satisfied but the top is failing to close by means of
switch operation, you can close the top by hand.NOTE
The top cannot be opened by hand. If the top fails to open
by means of switch operation, have the vehicle inspected
by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.

For manual closing of the electric convertible top, it is
advisable for two people to work together. In particular,
the task of folding up the top and extending it forward is
much easier for two people than for one. If no assistance
is available, you may find it easiest to position yourself on
the rear seat and lift up the electric convertible top by
grasping it at the center.

When the top has been closed by hand, it can become
inoperable (neither openable nor closable) by means of
switch operation. After closing the top by hand, be sure to
have the vehicle inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer.
CAUTION
!
Do not manually close the top when there is a strong
wind.

NOTE
When you press the SPEECH button to enter voice recog-
nition mode with a cellular phone paired to the system,
current information on the cellular phone, such as
“remaining battery life,” “signal strength” or “roaming,”
will be displayed on the audio display.* (Refer to “Pairing
a cellular phone” on page 3-147.)
*: Some cellular phones will not send this information to
the Bluetooth
® HFP.

Call waiting and three-way calls can be used by the Blue-
tooth
® HFP, only when those services can be used with
your cellular phone.

Users may experience a delay in vehicle audio when plac-
ing or answering a call from the handset. To reduce
delays, users should place calls and receive calls through
the Hands-free System.
Voice recognition function
N00506600090
The Bluetooth
® HFP is equipped with a voice recognition
function. Your voice will be recognized by a microphone in the
front pillar (driver’s side), allowing you to make hands-free
calls with voice commands.
Voice recognition is possible in US English, North American
Spanish and Canadian French. The factory setting is US
English.
Some of the voice commands indicated below have a number
of alternative commands. For a table showing the voice com-
mands in each language and the corresponding alternative
commands, refer to “Commands and Alternatives” on page 3-
161.
NOTE
If the voice command that you say differs from the pre-
defined command or cannot be recognized due to ambient
noise or some other reason, the Bluetooth
® HFP will ask
you for the voice command again up to 3 times.

For best performance and further reduction of ambient
noise, the vehicle windows and the electric convertible
top (ECLIPSE SPYDER only) should be closed while
engaging the voice recognition function.
Selecting the LanguageThere are two ways to change the language. NOTE
The more entries that are registered in the phonebook, the
longer it will take to change the language.
