Q: Why does the FUSE Hands-free Link System™ take so long to upload my music from my audio music device?
A: The Mitsubishi system can read multiple device structures in order to catalog the music files for easy playing and listening.
Depending on the amount of music you have on your device, this may take a few minutes.
Q: What are the different ways of playing music from my portable music player through the stereo system in my vehicle, when
equipped with the FUSE Hands-free Link System™?
A: There are three ways of playing music through your vehicle’s sound system.
• USB port - The FUSE system will find the songs in your device and categorize them according to Artist, Album, and Genre. Then you can have the FUSE system find and play the song in your device that you prefer without physically searching your device.
This is done via voice commands. Note: In this mode the storage device will also be charged.
• Bluetooth® Streaming - Once your device is paired to the FUSE system, you can stream music from your device through the FUSE system to your vehicles sound system. No wires or cords. Your music stops and restarts at the same song when you exit
and when you re-enter the vehicle. Voice commands are not available.
• RCA auxiliary ports - Music can be played through a vehicles stereo system via the head phone port of your music device (An RCA to mini headphone jack adapter cable will be needed) Voice command is not available.
Q: Why can’t I control the music track selection via voice commands while Bluetooth® streaming?
A: The Mitsubishi system is not configured to support this functionality.
Q: My Outlander Sport is equipped with “Micron Air Filtration”. Where is the filter located and does it need servicing?
A: The micron air filter is a small filter element which is located in the HVAC box just behind the glove box. The filter should be
inspected frequently for debris. The filter works well at filtering incoming air however the filter will clog and lead to reduced outlet
air volume if not serviced on a regular basis.
