Operating the air conditioning system (automatic mode)

CAUTION The engine speed may increase when the air conditioning (cooler or
heater) is operating.
With an increased engine speed, a CVT vehi- cle will creep to a greater degree than with a lower engine speed. Fully depress the brakepedal to prevent the vehicle from creeping.NOTE
 Set the temperature at about 75 (Type 1) or 24 (Type 2) under normal conditions.

For ordinary defrosting 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 MODE switch to the “ ” posi- tion. 2. Set the air selection switch to the outside air position.3. Select your desired blower speed by pressing the blower speed selection switch.4. Select your desired temperature by press- ing the temperature control switch. 5. Push the air conditioning switch.
For quick defrosting 1. Push the defogger switch to change to the “ ” position. 2. Set your blower to the maximum speed. 3. Set the temperature to the highest posi-tion.
N00733700336
1. Park the vehicle in the shade whenever possible. Parking in the hot sun makes the vehicle interior extremely hot which thenrequires more time to
cool. If it is neces-
sary to park in the sun, open the windows for the first few minut
es of air condition-
ing to expel the hot air. 2. Afterwards, keep the windows closed when the air conditioning 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 obstruc-tions such as leaves. Leaves collected in the air-intake chamber may reduce air flow and plug the water drains.
If the air conditioning seems less effective than usual, the cause might be a refrigerant leak.
NOTE
 While the mode selection is set “ ” posi- tion, the air conditioni
ng compressor will run
automatically. The out
side air position will
also be selected automatically.  If the mode selection is set “ ” position, you cannot turn the air conditioning off or select the recirculati
on position. This pre-
vents 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 maximum cool position. This will blow cool air on the window glass and fog it up.

Have the system inspected by your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facilityof your choice. The air conditioning should be operated for at least five minutes each week, even in cold weather. This includes the quick defrosting mode. Operating the
air condition system
weekly maintains lubrication of the compres- sor internal parts to keep the air conditioning in the best operating condition.
N00733800180
The air conditioning system is equipped withan air filter to re
move pollen
and dust.
The air filter’s ability to collect pollen and dirt is reduced as it be
comes dirty, so replace
it periodically. For the maintenance interval,refer to the “WARRANTY AND MAINTE- NANCE MANUAL”.
N00734302131
The audio system can only be used when the ignition switch or the
operation mode is in
ON or ACC.
CAUTION The air conditioning system in your vehicle must be charged with the refrigerant HFC-134a and the lubricant ZXL 200PG. Use of any other refrigerant or lubricant will cause severe damage a
nd may require replac-
ing your vehicle’s en
tire air conditioning
system. The release of refrigerant into the atmo-sphere is not recommended. The new refrigerant HFC-134a in your vehi- cle is designed not to harm the earth’s ozonelayer. However, it may contribute slightly to global warming. It is recommended that the old refrigerant besaved and recycled for future use.
During a long period of disuse
Air purifier
(if so equipped)
NOTE
 Operation in certain conditions such as driv- ing on a dusty road and frequent use of the air conditioning ca
n lead to reduction of ser-
vice life of the filter. When you feel that the air flow is lower than normal or when the windshield or windows st
art to fog up easily,
replace the air filter. Contact your Mitsubishi
Motors dealer or a
repair facility of your
choice for assistance.

 To listen to the audio system while the engine is not running, turn the ignitionswitch to the “ACC” pos
ition or put the oper-
ation mode in ACC. For vehicles equipped with the F.A.S.T.-key, if the operation mode is left in ACC, theaccessory power will automatically turn off after a certain period
of time and you will no
longer be able to use the audio system. Theaccessory power comes on again if the engine switch is operated with it in the “ACC” position. Refer
to “ACC power auto-
cutout function” on page 5-14.  If a cellular phone is
used inside the vehicle,
it may create noise in the audio equipment. 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.  If foreign objects or wa
ter get into the audio
equipment, or if smoke or a strange odor comes from it, immediately turn off theaudio system and have
it checked at an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice. Never try torepair it yourself. Avoid using the audio sys- tem until it is inspected by a qualified per- son.  If the audio system is damaged by foreign objects, water, or fire, have the systemchecked by a qualified Mitsubishi Motors technician.

Check the washer fluid
level at regular inter-
vals and add washer fluid to reservoir if nec-essary. Open the reservoir cap and check the level of washer fluid.Full level is approximately 2 inches (5 cm) When freezing weather is anticipated, flush out the water in the reservoir by operating the pump. Fill the reservoir with windshield anti-freeze (not radiator an
tifreeze), and operate
the system for a few seconds to flush out the residual water.
N00938701297
The fluid level must be between the “MAX” The fluid level falls slightly with wear of the brake pads, but this
does not indicate any
abnormality. The fluid in the master cylinder should be checked when doing other work under the engine hood. The brake system should also bechecked for leaks at the same time. If the fluid level falls
noticeably in a short
length of time, it indi
cates leaks from the
brake system.
If this occurs, have the vehicle checked by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or arepair facility of your choice. Use the brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or DOT 4. The reservoir cap must be tightly sealed to keep dirt and water out.
N00939100943
The condition of the battery is very important for quick starting and to keep the vehicle’selectrical system working properly. Check the battery regularly.

damage painted surfaces. Use only the listed brake fluid. Different brands of brake fluid
have different addi-
tives, and these can cause a chemical reac- tion. Do not mix brands of brake fluid. Keep the reservoir cap closed to keep the brake fluid from evaporating.
