2012 MITSUBISHI ASX clock

l
For vehicles with the Auto Stop & Go
(AS&G) system, if the mode selection dial is
set to the demister position shown in the illus-
tration, the Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) system
will not operate and the engine will not stop
automatically even if the vehicle is stopped.
This is to ensure that good visibility is main-
tained.
Introduction of outside air (Heater/Manual air
conditioning) E00702200408
To introduce air into the vehicle during hot weath-
er, set the air selection switch (A) to the outside po-
sition and set the temperature control dial to the po-
sitions

shown in the illustration. Be sure to set the
temperature control dial all the way to the left. Se-
lect the desired blower speed. NOTE
l Turn

the mode selection dial clockwise and
air will flow to the leg area and the windscreen. Important operation tips for the
air conditioning E00708301033
l Park the vehicle in the shade.
Parking

in the hot sun will make the vehicle
inside extremely hot, and it will require more
time to cool the interior.
If it is necessary to park in the sun, open the
windows for the first few minutes of air con-
ditioning operation to expel the hot air.
l Close the windows when the air conditioning
is in use.
The entry of outside air through open win-
dows will reduce the cooling efficiency.
l Too much cooling is not good for the health.
Keep the difference between the vehicle inte-
rior temperature and outside temperature to 5
to 6 °C.
l When operating the system, make sure the
air intake, which is located in front of the
windscreen, is free of obstructions such as
leaves and snow. Leaves collected in the air-
intake plenum may reduce air flow and plug
the plenum water drains.
Air conditioning system refrigerant
and lubricant recommendations
If the air conditioning seems less effective than usu-
al, the cause might be a refrigerant leak. We recom-
mend you to have the system inspected.
The air conditioning system in your vehicle must
be charged with the refrigerant HFC-134a and the
lubricant SUN-PAG56.
Use of any other refrigerant or lubricant will cause
severe damage which will result in the need to re-
place your vehicle’s entire air conditioning system.
The release of refrigerant into the atmosphere is
not recommended. The new refrigerant HFC-134a
in your vehicle will
not harm the ozone layer.
We recommend you to recover and recycle the re-
frigerant for reuse.
During a long period of disuse
The air conditioning should be operated for at least
five minutes each week, even in cold weather. This
is to prevent the compressor from seizing and to
maintain the air conditioning in the best operating
condition. For pleasant driving

RDS uses PI (program identification) signal and
AF
(alternative frequency) list transmitted in addi-
tion to the normal FM broadcasting programs, and
picks up the FM stations that are transmitting the
same program from the AF list and automatically
tunes to the station with the strongest signal intensi-
ty.
Therefore, you can continue listening to one pro-
gram in, for example, a long distance driving with-
out retuning to the other station transmitting the
same program when you are leaving the service
area of the currently receiving station.
The RDS radio also features the limited reception
of the program types, the break-in reception of the
traffic announcement to the EON (enhanced other
network) and emergency broadcast, and the limited/
unlimited reception of the regional programs.
AF (Alternative Frequencies) function E00720900162
The AF function finds a station broadcasting the
same

program and selects the station with the stron-
gest signal of AF lists.
The AF function is turned on at all times unless
you manually switch it off.

The AF function can be turned ON and OFF.
Refer to “Function setup mode” on page 5-16.
CT (Clock Time) function E00721000072
The clock can be set automatically by using the sig-
nal

from the local RDS stations. Refer to “Digital
clock” on page 5-39.
REG (Regional) function E00721100116
REG function limits to receive the stations broad-
casting regional programs. Regional programming and regional networks are
organized

differently depending on the country or
area (they may be changed according to the hour,
state, or broadcast area), so if you don’t want to re-
ceive the regional programs automatically, you can
set up REG ON not to receive regional programs.

The REG function can be turned ON and OFF.
Refer to “Function setup mode” on page 5-16.
PI (Program Identification) search function E00721200250
When travelling long distance and the recalled pre-
set

station is weak, the radio searches another fre-
quency broadcasting the same programming with
the same PI code in AF list.
If there are no frequencies broadcasting the same
programming, the radio searches a frequency broad-
casting the regional programming. The radio suc-
ceeds in searching the regional programming, then
the display shows the REG indicator.
If the radio does not succeed in searching the re-
gional programming, the radio returns to the recal-
led preset station.

The PI function can be turned ON and OFF.
Refer to “Function setup mode” on page 5-16.
NOTE
l While searching, the audio system is muted.
The display shows “WAIT” or “SEARCH”.
PTY (Program type) E00721300323
RDS broadcasts are classified according to pro-
gram

type (PTY) as follows. Use the TUNE switch
to select your desired PTY.

Notes on CD-Rs/RWs
E00725100055
l You
may have trouble playing back some
CD-R/RW discs recorded on CD recorders
(CD-R/RW drives), either due to their record-
ing characteristics or dirt, fingerprints,
scratches, etc. on the disc surface.
l CD-R/RW discs are less resistant to high tem-
peratures and high humidity than ordinary mu-
sic CDs and can therefore be damaged and
rendered unplayable if left inside your vehi-
cle for a long time.
l Depending on the combination of the writing
software, the CD recorder (CD-R/RW drive),
and the disc used to create a CD-R/RW, the
disc might not play successfully.
l This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs
if the session is not closed.
l This player cannot play CD-R/RW discs
which contain other than CD-DA or MP3 da-
ta (Video CD, etc.).
l Be sure to observe the handling instructions
for the CD-R/RW disc. WARNING
l Operating
the CD player in a manner oth-
er than specifically instructed herein may
result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Do not remove the cover and attempt to
repair the CD player by yourself. There
are no user serviceable parts inside. If the
CD player is not working correctly, it is
recommended that you have it inspected. Antenna
