3Cigarette lighter
(if so equipped)
N00524900239
The cigarette lighter can only be used when the ignition switch
is in either the “ON” or “ACC” position.
To use the cigarette lighter, push it all the way into the socket
until it clicks. It will pop out automatically when it is ready for
use.NOTE

Keep the cigarette lighter in its socket when not in use.
This will prevent the socket from becoming clogged and
short circuiting.
CAUTION
!

Do not touch the heating element or lighter housing.
Hold the lighter by the knob only.


Do not allow children to use or play with the ciga-
rette lighter because they could be burned.


The cigarette lighter should pop back out about 30
seconds after pushing it in. If it does not pop out by
itself, pull it out and have it fixed at an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your
choice. Leaving the cigarette lighter pushed in for a
long time could cause a fire.


Do not leave the cigarette lighter pushed in. Do not
use a cigarette lighter from another vehicle in this
socket. If you do, the lighter may overheat and cause
a fire.


It is recommended that only the lighter be inserted
in this socket. Using “plug-in” type accessories may
damage the socket and loosen the lighter.


When the cigarette lighter socket is used as a power
source for electronic equipment, be sure that the
equipment runs at 12 V and at 120 W or less.


When using cigarette lighter and 12 V power outlet
simultaneously, make sure that the total power con-
sumption of these does not exceed 120 W at 12 V.


Be aware that using electronic equipment with the
engine not running may run the battery down.
