lRecirculated air {Indication lamp (A) is ON}
Air is recirculated inside the passenger com-
partment.
NOTE
l For vehicles with automatic air conditioning,
an automatic fresh/recirculation control func-
tion is included to improve the efficiency of
the air conditioning. If the outside air temper-
ature rises, the air conditioning automatically
switches to the recirculation mode. To deacti-
vate the automatic fresh/recirculation con-
trol, press the air selection switch while the
ignition switch is “ON”. However, once the
automatic fresh/recirculation control is deac-
tivated, it can only be reactivated by ignition
switch is “OFF”.
l When the recirculation mode is selected by
the automatic fresh/recirculation control, the
air conditioning will switch to the outside air
mode for about 30 seconds at intervals of ap-
proximately 20 minutes in order to ventilate
the passenger compartment.
CAUTIONl Normally, use the outside position to keep
the windscreen and side windows clear
and quickly remove fog or frost from the
windscreen.
If high cooling performance is desired, or
if the outside air is dusty or otherwise con-
taminated use the recirculation position.
Switch to the outside position periodically
to increase ventilation so that the win-
dows do not become fogged up.
l Use of the recirculation position for exten-
ded time may cause the windows to fog up.Air conditioning switch E00703501131
Push the switch, and the air conditioning compres-
sor will turn on. The air conditioning indication
lamp (A) will come on.
Push the switch again and the air conditioning com-
pressor will stop working and the indication lamp
goes off.
CAUTIONl When using the air conditioning, the
idling speed may slightly increase as the
air conditioning compressor is switched
on/off automatically. While the vehicle
with an automated manual transmission
is stationary, fully depress the brake ped-
al to prevent the vehicle from creeping.
NOTE
l If the air conditioning indication lamp is flash-
ing, the air conditioning system may be mal-
functioning. Press the air conditioning switch
to turn off the air conditioning, and then
press the switch again to turn on the air con-
ditioning.
If the air conditioning indication lamp flash-
es again after a while, consult a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point. If the air conditioning indication lamp
no longer flashes, there is no problem.
