Air purifier
E00708400561
An
air filter has been incorporated into the air con-
ditioning so that pollen and dust are cleaned from
the air.
Replace the air filter periodically as its ability to
clean the air will be reduced as it collects pollen
and dirt. For the maintenance interval, refer to the
“SERVICE BOOKLET”.
NOTE
l Operation in certain conditions such as driv-
ing on a dusty road and frequent use of the
air conditioning can lead to reduction of serv-
ice life of the filter. When you feel that the
air flow is lower than normal or when the
windscreen or windows start to fog up easily,
replace the air filter.
We recommend you to have it checked. Audio system*

For information on operations of the audio system
for vehicles equipped with MITSUBISHI Multi-Co-
munication system (MMCS), refer to the separate
owner’s manual.
The audio system can only be used when the igni-
tion switch or the operation mode is in ON or ACC. NOTE
l To

listen to the audio system while the en-
gine is not running, turn the ignition switch
to the “ACC” position or put the operation
mode in ACC.
If the ignition switch or the operation mode
is left in ACC, the accessory power will auto-
matically turn off after a certain period of
time and you will no longer be able to use
the audio system. The accessory power
comes on again if the ignition switch or the
engine switch is operated with it in the
“ACC” position. Refer to “ACC power auto-
cutout function” on pages 1-13 and 4-13.
l If a cellular phone is used inside the vehicle,
it may create noise from the audio equip-
ment. This does not mean that anything is
wrong with your audio equipment. In such a
case, use the cellular phone at a place as far
away as possible from the audio equipment.
l If foreign objects or water get into the audio
equipment, or if smoke or a strange odour
comes from it, immediately turn off the au-
dio system. We recommend you to have it
checked. Never try to repair it by yourself.
Avoid continuous usage without inspection
by a qualified person.
l The audio amplifier (if so equipped) is loca-
ted under the front right seat. Do not subject
the amplifier to a strong impact. It could dam-
age the amplifier or malfunctioning could re-
sult. For pleasant driving

To listen to an MP3 CD
This
audio system allows you to play MP3 (MPEG
Audio Layer-3) files recorded on CD-ROMs,
CD-Rs (recordable CDs), and CD-RWs (rewritable
CDs) in ISO9660 Level 1/Level 2, Joliet, and Ro-
meo formats. Each disc can hold up to 255 files in
up to 100 folders, up to a maximum of 16 levels.
The ID3 tag information can be displayed during
MP3 playback. For information concerning ID3
tags, refer to “CD text and MP3 title display” on
page 5-21. Push the CD button if a disc is already in the audio
system.
The

display shows “READING”, then playback
will begin.
The folder number, the track number, the playing-
time and “MP3” indicator will appear on the display. NOTE
l While

listening to a disc on which CD-DA
(CD-Digital Audio) and MP3 files have both
been recorded, you can switch between read-
ing of the CD-DA, reading of the MP3 files,
and the external audio input mode by press-
ing the CD button for 2 seconds or longer (un-
til you hear a beep).
For information on the external audio input
mode, refer to “To use the external audio in-
put function” on page 5-32.
l With a disc that contains both CD-DA and
MP3 files, the CD-DA files are automatical-
ly played first.
l The playback sound quality differs depend-
ing on the encoder software and the bit rate.
For more information, refer to the owner’s
manual for the encoder software.
l Depending on the layout of the files and fold-
ers on the disc, it may take some time until
playback starts.
l MP3 conversion software and writing soft-
ware are not supplied with this unit.
l You may encounter trouble in playing an
MP3 or displaying the information of MP3
files recorded with certain writing software
or CD recorders (CD-R/RW drivers).
l If you write many folders or files other than
MP3 files, it may take some time before play-
back starts.
l This unit does not record MP3 files.
l For information on CD-Rs/RWs, refer to
“Notes on CD-Rs/RWs” on page 5-39. CAUTION
l
Attempting
to play a file not in the MP3
format which has a “.mp3” file name may
produce noise from the speakers and
speaker damage, and can significantly
damage your hearing.

used for the first time. Once the device has
been paired with the Bluetooth ®
2.0 inter-
face, you only need to bring the device into
the vehicle next time and the device will au-
tomatically connect to the Bluetooth ®
2.0 in-
terface (if supported by the device). The de-
vice must have Bluetooth ®
turned ON to con-
nect.
Up to 7 Bluetooth ®
devices can be paired with the
Bluetooth ®
2.0 interface.
If multiple paired Bluetooth ®
devices are available
in the vehicle, the cellular phone or music player
most recently connected is automatically connected
to the Bluetooth ®
2.0 interface.

You can also change a Bluetooth ®
device to be con-
nected.

keyed into the Bluetooth ®
device later in the
pairing process.
Depending on the connection settings of the
Bluetooth ®
device, this code may have to be
entered each time you connect the Blue-
tooth ®
device to the Bluetooth ®
2.0 inter-
face. For the default connection settings, re-
fer to the instructions for the device.
7. The voice guide will say “Start pairing proce- dure on the device. See the device manual

2.0 interface cannot recog-
nize the Bluetooth ®
device, the voice guide
will say “Pairing has timed out” and the pair-
ing process will be cancelled.
Confirm that the device you are pairing sup-
ports Bluetooth ®
