2014 MITSUBISHI L200 air filter

Important operation tips for theair conditioning E00708300951
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 windows will reduce the cooling effi-
ciency.
l Too much cooling is not good for the health.
The inside air temperature should only be 5
to 6 °C below the outside air temperature.
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 ZXL-100PG.
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
should be prevented.It is recommended that the refrigerant be recovered
and recycled for further use.
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 poor lubrication of the compressor in-
ternal parts and to maintain the air conditioning in
the best operating condition.Air purifier* E00708400675
An air filter has been incorporated into this air con-
ditioning so that dirt 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.

4.After the engine coolant temperature has drop-
ped to the normal temperature, stop the engine.
5. Check the coolant level in the reserve tank.
WARNINGl If there is none, make sure that the en-
gine has cooled down before removing
the radiator cap, because hot steam or boil-
ing water otherwise will gush from the fill-
er port and may scald you.6. Add coolant to the radiator and/or reserve
tank if necessary (refer to the “Maintenance”
section.)CAUTIONl Do not add coolant while the engine is
hot. Suddenly adding cold coolant could
damage the engine. Wait for the engine to
cool down, then add coolant a little at a
time.
7. Examine the radiator hoses for coolant leak-
age and the drive belt for looseness or damage.
If there is anything wrong with the cooling
system or drive belt, we recommend you to
have it checked and repaired.
Bleeding the fuel system E00800700312
The fuel system should be bled to remove air as de-
scribed below if the fuel supply is exhausted during
travel.

2.Pump the hand pump (B) until there are no
more bubbles in the fuel coming out of the
air plug (A). When doing this, place a cloth
around the air plug (A) to prevent the escap-
ing fuel from spraying out.
3. Tighten the air plug (A) when there are no
more bubbles in the fuel.
4. Continue pumping until the hand pump (B)
becomes stiff.
5. Finally, check to be sure that there is no leak- age of fuel.
If in doubt, we recommend you to consult a
specialist for necessary information.
Type 2, 3
Pump the hand pump (A) at the top of the fuel fil-
ter until the hand pump becomes stiff.
Then try again to start the engine.
If the engine does not start, repeat the process above.Type 2Type 3
CAUTIONl Do not smoke or have any other open
flame near the vehicle while bleeding the
fuel system.
l Be sure to carefully clean away any spilt
fuel which could ignite and cause a fire.Removal of water from the fuel
filterE00800800342
If the fuel filter indication lamp in the instrument
panel illuminates during driving, it indicates that wa-
ter has accumulated in the fuel filter. If this occurs,
remove the water as described below.
Type 1, 2 1. Loosen the drain plug (A) of the fuel filter.

2.Operate the hand pump (B) slowly 6 or 7
times in order to force the water out through
the drain plug (A).
3. Tighten the drain plug (A) when water no lon-
ger comes out.
4. Bleed the air in the fuel system. (Refer to “Bleeding the fuel system” on page
6-05.)
5. Check to be sure that the fuel filter indication lamp illuminates when the ignition switch is
turned to “ON”, and that it goes off when the
engine is started. If in doubt, we recommend
you to consult a specialist for necessary infor-
mation.
CAUTIONl Do not smoke or have any other open
flame near the vehicle while bleeding the
fuel system.
l Be sure to carefully clean away any water
drained out because any fuel mixed with
the water could ignite and cause a fire.Type 3
Take your vehicle to a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point to remove the water from
the fuel filter.
