NOTEWhile the mode selection is set “ ” position, the air con-
ditioning compressor will run automatically. The outside
air position will also be selected automatically.
If the mode selection is set “ ” position, you cannot turn
the air conditioning off or select the recirculation position.
This prevents the windows from fogging up.
To defog quickly, direct the air flow from the side vents
toward the door windows.
When defrosting, do not set the temperature to the maxi-
mum cool position. This will blow cool air on the window
glass and fog it up.
Important air conditioning operating tips
N00733700336
1. Park the vehicle in the shade whenever possible. Parking
in the hot sun makes the vehicle interior extremely hot
which then requires more time to cool. If it is necessary to
park in the sun, open the windows for the first few min-
utes of air conditioning to expel the hot air.
2. Afterwards, keep the windows closed when the air condi-
tioning is in use. The entry of outside air through open
windows will reduce cooling efficiency.
3. When running the air conditioning, make sure the air
intake, which is located in front of the windshield, is free
of obstructions such as leaves. Leaves collected in the air-
intake chamber may reduce air flow and plug the water
drains.Air conditioning system refrigerant and lubri-
cant recommendationsIf the air conditioning seems less effective than usual, the cause
might be a refrigerant leak.
Have the system inspected by your authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.

In the following circumstances, moisture can form on
compact discs and inside the audio system, preventing
normal operation.
• When there is high humidity (for example, when it is
raining).
• When the temperature suddenly rises, such as right after
the heater is turned on in cold weather.
In this case, wait until the moisture has had time to dry
out.
When the CD player is subjected to violent vibrations,
such as during off-road driving, the tracking may not
work.
When storing compact discs, always store them in their
separate cases. Never place compact discs in direct sun-
light, or in any place where the temperature or humidity is
high.
Never touch the flat surface of the disc where there isn’t a
label. This will damage the disc surface and could affect
the sound quality. When handling a compact disc, always
hold it by the outer edge and the center hole.
To clean a disc, use a soft, clean, dry cloth. Wipe directly
from the center hole toward the outer edge. Do not wipe in
a circle. Never use any chemicals such as benzine, paint
thinner, a disc spray cleaner, or an anti-static agent on the
disc.
Do not use a ball point pen, felt pen, pencil, etc. to write
on the label surface of the disc. Do not put additional labels or stickers on compact discs.
Also, do not use any compact disc on which a label or
sticker has started to peel off or any compact disc that has
stickiness or other contamination left by a peeled-off label
or sticker. If you use such a compact disc, the CD player
may stop working properly and you may not be able to
eject the compact disc.

Notes on CD-Rs/RWs
N00751900066
You may have trouble playing back some CD-R/RW discs
recorded on CD recorders (CD-R/RW drives), either due
to their recording characteristics or dirt, fingerprints,
scratches, etc. on the disc surface.
CD-R/RW discs are less resistant to high temperatures and
high humidity than ordinary music CDs and can therefore
be damaged and rendered unplayable if left inside your
vehicle for a long time.
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.
This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs if the session
is not closed.
This player cannot play CD-R/RW discs which contain
data other than CD-DA or MP3 data (Video CD, etc.).
Be sure to observe the handling instructions for the CD-
R/RW disc.
Antenna
N00734200484
When listening to the radio, fully raise the antenna up.
WA R N I N G
!Operating the CD player in a manner other than
specifically instructed herein may result in hazard-
ous radiation exposure. Do not remove the cover
and attempt to repair the CD player by yourself.
There are no user serviceable parts inside. In case of
malfunction, contact an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.
