2017 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER PHEV air conditioning

NOTElThere is an interior air temperature sensor (A) in the illustrated position.
Never place anything on top of the sensor, since doing so will prevent it from functioning properly.
l While the EV priority mode is activated, except when pressing the demister switch, the engine does not start.
Therefore, if your vehicle is not equipped with the electric heater, the heating performance cannot be obtained while the EV priority mode is activated.
Also, if your vehicle is equipped with the electric heater, the heating performance may not be sufficiently obtained while the EV priority mode is activated. In such case, cancel the EV priority mode. Refer to “EV switch” on page 7-25.
l Since the air conditioning operation is controlled while the ECO mode is operating, you may feel that effectiveness of the air conditioner is weak.
Also, on vehicles without electric heater, the heating performance cannot be obtained while the ECO mode is operating since engine starting is controlled. In such case, cancel ECO mode. Refer to “ECO mode switch” on page 6-62.
l Even if the ECO mode is operating, you can select normal operation of the air conditioner.
On vehicles equipped with the Smartphone Link Display Audio or the MITSUBISHI Multi-Communication System (MMCS), screen operations can be used
to change the setting. Refer to the separate owner’s manual for details.
l In extreme cold, the air conditioning control panel screen may operate sluggishly. This does not indicate a problem.
It will disappear when the vehicle interior temperature rises to a normal temperature.

set to the lowest setting)
Inside air will be recirculated and the air
conditioner will operate.
l When the air conditioner is set to quick heat-
ing, the engine starts running (except vehi-
cles with electric heater).

The settings described above are the factory settings.

The air selection and air conditioningswitches can be customized (function setting
changed), and the automatic switching of out-
side air and the air conditioner according to operating conditions can be changed as de-
sired.
For further information, we recommend you to consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point.

Synchronized mode and dual mode
The driver’s side and the passenger’s side
temperature can be controlled independently. At this time, the “DUAL” indicator will be shown in the display (A).
l Synchronized mode
If the driver’s side temperature control switch is pressed, the passenger’s side temperature will also be controlled to the
same setting temperature as the driver’s
side.
l Dual mode
If the passenger’s side temperature con-
trol switch is pressed under synchron- ized mode, the system will switch to du-
al mode. In dual mode, the driver’s side
and the passenger’s side temperature can
be set separately by using each tempera-
ture control switch.
Press the AUTO switch to return to
synchronized mode.Air selection switch
E00703401808
To change the air selection, simply press the air selection switch.
l Outside air: Indication lamp (A) is OFF
Outside air is introduced into the passen- ger compartment.
l Recirculated air: Indication lamp (A) is
ON
Air is recirculated inside the passenger
compartment.CAUTIONl Use of the recirculation position for exten-
ded time may cause the windows to fog up.NOTEl Normally, use the outside position to keep
the windscreen and side windows clear and
quickly remove fog or frost from the wind- screen.
If high cooling performance is desired, or if
the outside air is dusty or otherwise contami- nated use the recirculation position. Switch
to the outside position periodically to in- crease ventilation so that the windows do notbecome fogged up.

Demisting of the windscreen
and door windows
E00704302016
CAUTIONl For safety, make sure you have a clear view
through all the windows.
For ordinary demisting
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 by pressing the blower speed selection
switch.
4. Select your desired temperature by pressing the temperature control switch.
5. Push the air conditioning switch.
For quick demisting
1. Push the demister switch to change to the “
” position.
2. Set the blower to the maximum speed.
3. Set the temperature to the highest posi- tion.
NOTEl To demist effectively, direct the air flow
from the side ventilators towards the door windows.
l Do not set the temperature to the max. cool
position. Cool air will blow against the win-
dow glasses and prevent demisting.

Important operation tips forthe air conditioner E00708302287
l Park the vehicle in the shade.
Parking in the hot sun will make the ve-
hicle inside extremely hot, and it will re-
quire 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 conditioning operation to expel the
hot air.
l Close the windows when the air condi-
tioner is in use. The entry of outside air
through open windows will reduce the cooling efficiency.
l Too much cooling is not good for the
health. Keep the difference between the
vehicle interior temperature and outside
temperature at 5 to 6 °C.
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 collec- ted in the air-intake plenum may reduce
air flow and plug the plenum water
drains.
l Too much cooling/heating can affect the
EV cruising range, so maintain an appro-
priate temperature to extend the EV
cruising range.Air conditioning system refrig-
erant and lubricant recommen-dations
If the air conditioner seems less effective than usual, the cause might be a refrigerant leak.
We recommend you to have the system in-
spected.
[Except for vehicles for Russia]
The air conditioning system in your vehicle
must be charged with the refrigerant
HFO-1234yf and the lubricant POE
MA68EV.
[Vehicles for Russia]
The air conditioning system in your vehicle must be charged with the refrigerant
HFC-134a and the lubricant POE MA68EV.
Use of any other refrigerant or lubricant will cause severe damage which will result in the
need to replace your vehicle’s entire air con- ditioning system. The release of refrigerantinto the atmosphere is not recommended.
We recommend you to recover and recycle
the refrigerant for reuse.
During a long period of disuse
The air conditioner should be operated for at
least five minutes each week, even in cold
weather. This is to prevent the compressor from seizing and to maintain the air condi-
tioner in the best operating condition.
Air purifier
E00708400718
An air filter has been incorporated into thisair conditioner 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”.
NOTEl Operation in certain conditions such as driv-
ing on a dusty road and frequent use of the air conditioner 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 easi- ly, replace the air filter.
We recommend you to have it checked.
