NOTE
There is an interior air temperature sensor (A) in the illus-
trated position.
Never place anything over the sensor, since doing so will
prevent it from functioning properly.

The multi center display automatically switches to an air
conditioning display whenever an air conditioning control
is adjusted manually. The display automatically reverts to
its original display about 10 seconds after the adjustment
is made.

When the air conditioning turns on, the air selection will be
controlled automatically. When the air conditioning turns off,
the air selection automatically goes back to the outside posi-
tion. The air selection indicator shows the selected position.
If high cooling performance is desired, or if the outside air is
dusty or contaminated in some way, use the recirculation posi-
tion. Switch to the outside position every now and then to keep
the windows from fogging up.NOTE
When the “ ” or “ ” position is selected, you cannot
turn the air conditioning off or select the recirculation
position.
This prevents the windows from fogging up.

When the mode selection dial or the blower speed selec-
tion dial is set to the “AUTO” position again after manual
operation, the air selection switch will also be automati-
cally controlled.

When the coolant temperature rises above a certain point
the air selection is automatically switched to the recircula-
tion position and the indicator light (A) turns on. When
this occurs the system will not switch to the outside posi-
tion even if the selection switch is pushed.

The air conditioning indicator (B) is displayed.
Push the switch again and the air conditioning compressor will
stop and the air conditioning indicator goes off.
NOTE
If a problem is detected in the air conditioning compres-
sor, the air conditioning indicator light (A) blinks. Press
the air conditioning switch once to turn it off, then once
more to turn it back on. If the air conditioning indicator
light (A) does not blink, there is no problem. If it does
blink, have it checked at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer or a repair facility of your choice.

Sometimes, for example after using a high-pressure car
wash, the condenser can get wet, and the air conditioning
indicator light (A) blinks temporarily. In this case there is
nothing wrong. Wait for a while, press the air conditioning
switch once to turn the system off, then once more to turn
it back on. Once the water evaporates, the blinking will
stop.
CAUTION
!
Using the air conditioning slightly increases the
engine idle speed. Therefore, make sure your foot is
firmly on the brake pedal when shifting the tran-
saxle into drive.

For ordinary defrosting
Use this setting to keep the windshield and door windows clear,
and to keep the leg area heated (when driving in rain or snow).
1. Set the mode selection dial to the “ ” position.
2. Select your desired blower speed by turning the blower
speed selection dial.
3. Select your desired temperature by turning the tempera-
ture control dial.For quick defrosting

1. Set the mode selection dial to the “ ” position.
2. Set your blower to the maximum speed.
3. Set the temperature to the highest position.
NOTE
When the mode selection dial is set to the “ ” or “ ”
position, the air conditioning compressor runs automati-
cally. The outside air position will also be selected auto-
matically. (In this case, the air conditioning indicator light
will not change.)

When the “ ” or “ ” position is selected, you cannot
turn the air conditioning off or use the recirculation posi-
tion. This prevents the windows from fogging up.

When defrosting, do not set the temperature control dial to
the maximum cool position. This would blow cool air on
the window glass and fog it up.

Important air conditioning operating tips
N00733700293
1. Park the vehicle in the shade whenever possible. Parking
in the hot sun makes the vehicle interior extremely hot
which then requires more time to cool. If it is necessary to
park in the sun, open the windows for the first few min-
utes of air conditioning to expel the hot air.
2. Afterwards, keep the windows closed when the air condi-
tioning is in use. The entry of outside air through open
windows will reduce cooling efficiency.
3. When running the air conditioning, make sure the air
intake, which is located in front of the windshield, is free
of obstructions such as leaves. Leaves collected in the air-
intake chamber may reduce air flow and plug the water
drains. Air conditioning system refrigerant and lubri-
cant recommendations If the air conditioning seems less effective than usual, the cause
might be a refrigerant leak.
Have the system inspected by your authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.
