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

1. Park the vehicle in the shade whenever possible. Parking in the hot sun makes thevehicle interior extremely hot which then requires more time to
cool. If it is neces-
sary to park in the sun, open the windowsfor the first few minutes of air condition- ing to expel the hot air. 2. Afterwards, keep the windows closedwhen the air conditioner is in use. The entry of outside air through open windows will reduce cooling efficiency.3. When running the air conditioner, 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 conditioner seems less effective than usual, the cause might
be a refrigerant leak.
Have the system inspected by your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facilityof your choice.
The air conditioner shoul
d be operated for at
least five minutes each week, even in cold weather. This includes the quick defrostingmode. Operating the
air condition system
weekly maintains lubrication of the compres- sor internal parts to keep the air conditionerin the best operating condition.
N00733801190
The air conditioning system is equipped with an air filter to re
move pollen
and dust.
The air filter’s ability to collect pollen anddirt is reduced as it be
comes dirty, so replace
it periodically. For the maintenance interval, refer to the “WARRANTY AND MAINTE-NANCE MANUAL”.
 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.
Important air conditioning operating tips
NOTE
Air conditioning system refrig- erant and lubricant recommen-dations
CAUTION The air conditioning system in your vehicle must be charged with the refrigerant HFC-134a and the lubricant SUN-PAG56. 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
NOTE
 Operation in certain conditions such as driv- ing on a dusty road and frequent use of the air conditioner ca
n lead to reduction of ser-
vice life of the filter. When you feel that theair 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.
