You can change the following functions to match your preference.
 Enable automatic air conditioning control: When the AUTO switch is pressed, orwhen the temperature control switch has been set to the minimum temperature, the air conditioning switch is automaticallycontrolled.  Disable automatic air conditioning con- trol: The air conditioning switch is not auto-matically controlled,
unless the air condi-
tioning switch is used.  Changing the settings Press the air conditioning switch for about 10 seconds or longer. When the setting has changed, the systemwill beep and the indi
cator light will flash.
• When the setting has changed from enabled to disabled, the system will beepthree times and the indicator light will flash three times. • When the setting has changed from dis-abled to enabled, the system will beep two times and the i
ndicator light will
flash three times.On vehicles equippe
d with Mitsubishi
Multi-Communication System, screen operations can also be used to change thesetting. Refer to th
e separate owner’s
manual for details.

When the AUTO switch is pressed, the indi- cator light (A) comes on and the mode selec- tion (except for “ ”), blower speed adjustment, recirculated/outside air selection,temperature adjustment
, and air conditioner
ON/OFF status are all controlled automati- cally.
CAUTION Using the air conditioni
ng slightly increases
the engine idle speed. Therefore, make sureyour foot is firmly on the brake pedal whenshifting the transaxle into drive.NOTE
 If a problem is detect
ed in the air condition-
ing compressor, the “ ” indicator blinks. Press the air conditioning
switch once to turn
it off, then once more to turn it back on. If the“ ” indicator does not blink, there is no problem. If it does blink,
have it checked at
an authorized Mitsubish
i Motors dealer or a
repair facility of your choice.  For example, sometimes after using a high- pressure car wash, the
condenser can get wet,
and the “ ” indicator blinks temporarily. Wait for a while, pres
s the air conditioning
switch once to turn the system off, then once more to turn it back on. Once the water evap- orates, the blinking will stop.

Personalizing the
air conditioning
switch (Changing the function set-ting)
NOTE
 The factory setting is
“Enable automatic air
conditioning control”.  When the defogger switch
is pressed, the air
conditioner will run au
tomatically, even if
the system is set to “Disable automatic airconditioning control”, in order to prevent windows from fogging up.

In normal conditions, use the system in the AUTO mode and follow these procedures: 1. Push the AUTO switch. 2. Set the temperature control switch to the desired temperature. The temperature can be set within a range of around 61 to 89(when the outside temperature unit of the multi-information disp
lay shows °F) or 17
to 31 (when the outside temperature unitof the multi-information display shows °C).
The vents (except for “ ”), recircula- tion/outside air, blower
speed, temperature
adjustment, and ON/O
FF of air conditioner
will be controlled automatically.

Blower speed and vent mode may be con- trolled manually by setting the blower speed selection switch and the MODE switch to thedesired positions. To
return to automatic
operation, press the AUTO switch.

Operating the air conditioning system (automatic mode)
NOTE
 Set the temperature at
about 75 (when the
outside temperature uni
t of the multi-infor-
mation display shows
°F) or 24 (when the
outside temperature uni
t of the multi-infor-
mation display shows °C) under normal con- ditions.  When the engine coolan
t temperature is low,
the air temperature from the heater will becool/cold until the engi
ne warms up, even if
you have selected warm
air with th
e temper-
ature switch. To prevent the windshield andwindows from fogging up, the vent mode will be changed to “ ” and the blower speed will be reduced.

To remove frost or mist from the windshield and door windows, use the MODE switch or defogger switch (“ ” or “ ”). Use this setting to ke
ep the windshield and
door windows clear of mist, and to keep the leg area heated (when driving in rain or snow).
1. Set the air selection switch to the outside position. 2. Set the MODE switch to the “ ” posi- tion. 3. Select your desired blower speed bypressing the blower speed selection switch. 4. Select your desired temperature by press-ing the temperature control switch. 5. Push the air conditioning switch.
1. Push the defogger switch to change to the “ ” position. 2. Set the blower to the maximum speed. 3. Set the temperature to the highest posi- tion.
Defrosting or defogging (wind- shield, door windows)
CAUTION For safety, make sure you have a clear view through all the windows.

For quick defrosting NOTE
While the mode selection is set to “ ” position, the air c
onditioning compressor
will run automatically. The outside air posi- tion will also be selected automatically.  If the mode selection is set to “ ” position, you cannot turn the air conditioner off or select the recirculati
on position. This pre-
vents the windows from fogging up.Type 1 Type 2

Maximum Pressure indicates the maximum permissible cold tire infla- tion pressure for this tire. The TIN may be found on one or both sides of the tire but the datecode may only be on one side. Look for the TIN on the outboard side of tires as mounted on the vehicle. If theTIN is not found on the outboard side then you will find it on the inboard side of the tire.
EXAMPLE: DOT MA L9 ABCD 1504
The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when testedunder controlled conditions on a specified government test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and one-half (11/2) times as well on th
e government course
as a tire graded 100.
The relative performance
of tires depends upon th
e actual conditions of
their use, however, and may depart signifi-cantly from the norm due to variations in driving habits, service
practices and differ-
ences in road characteristics and climate. The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B and C. Those grades represent the tire’s ability to
stop on wet pavement as
measured under controlled conditions onspecified government te
st surfaces of asphalt
and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction performance.
WA R N I N GOverloading of your tire is dangerous. Overloading can cause tire failure, affect vehi- cle handling, and increaseyour stopping distance. Use tires of the recommended load capacity for your vehicle.Never overload them.

DOT quality grades - Al

tires must conform to
Federal Safety Require-
ments in addition to these grades. The spe- cific grade rating in each grade category isshown on the side wall of the tires on your vehicle. The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of
the tire when tested

. For example, a tire
graded 150 would wear one and one-half (11/2) times as well on the government course
as a tire graded 100.
The relative performance
of tires depends upon the actual conditions of
their use, however, and may depart signifi- cantly from the norm due to variations indriving habits, service practices and differ- ences in road characteristics and climate. The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B and C. Those grades represent the tire’s ability to
stop on wet pavement as
measured under controlled conditions on specified government te
st surfaces of asphalt
and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction performance. The temperature grades are A (the highest), B and C, representing the ti
re’s resistance to the
generation of heat and it
s ability to dissipate
heat when tested un
der controlled conditions
on a specified indoor
laboratory test wheel.
Sustained high temperature can cause the
material of the tire to
degenerate and reduce
tire life, and excessive temperature can leadto sudden tire failure. The grade C corre- sponds to a level of performance which all passenger car tires must meet under the Fed-eral Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the labora
tory test wheel than
the minimum required by law.

If you believe that your vehicle has a defect which could cause a crash or could cause injury or death, you should immediately inform theNational Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in addi- tion to notifying Mitsubishi MotorsCorporation.

gned to this tire is
based on straight-ahead braking tractiontests, and does not include acceleration, cornering, hydroplani
