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 neces-sary to park in the sun, open the windows for the first few minutes 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 windowswill reduce cooling efficiency.
3. When running the air conditioning, make sure the air intake, which is located infront of the windshield, is free of obstruc- tions such as leaves. Leaves collected in the air-intake chamber may reduce airflow and plug the water drains.
If the air conditioning seems less effective than usual, the cause might be a refrigerant leak. Have the system inspected by your authorizedMitsubishi Motors dealer
or a repair facility
of your choice.
NOTE
 While the mode selection is set “ ” posi- tion, the air conditioning
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 orselect 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.

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

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 ozone layer. However, it may contribute slightly toglobal warming. It is recommended that the old refrigerant be saved and recycled for future use.

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
