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
near the “MAX A/C” position. This would blow cool air
on the window glass and fog it up.

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.
