air filter MITSUBISHI L200 2018 Owner's Manual (in English)

NOTE•Driver’s door is opened.
• Bonnet is open.
l In the following cases, the “AS&G” indica-
tion lamp will turn off and the engine will
not stop automatically.
• After the engine restarts automatically,
the vehicle speed has not exceeded ap- proximately 5 km/h (3 mph).
• After the engine start, approximately 30
seconds or more have not elapsed.
• After the engine restarts automatically
and the vehicle stops again within 10 sec- onds.
• Engine coolant temperature is low.
• Ambient temperature is low.
• When the heater is operated, vehicle indi-
cator temperature is not still hot enough.
• Air conditioning is operating and passen-
ger compartment has not sufficientlycooled.
• Demister switch is pressed.
Refer to “Demisting of the windscreen
and door windows: For quick demisting”
on page 7-16.
• When the air conditioner is operated in
the AUTO mode where the temperature
control is set to max. hot or max. cool (for
vehicles with automatic climate air condi- tioning).
• When the diesel particulate filter (DPF)
automatically burns away trapped particu- late matter (PM).NOTE• Electric power consumption is high, such
as when the rear window demister or oth- er electrical components are operating or
the blower speed is set to a high setting.
• Battery voltage or battery performance is
low.
• Check engine warning lamp is illuminated
or the
indication lamp is blinking.
• On 4WD vehicles, the drive mode-selec-
tor in “4H” or “4L” (Easy Select 4WD),
“4HLc” or “4LLc” (Super Select 4WD II)
l In the following cases, the engine will not
stop automatically even if “AS&G” indica-
tion lamp turn on.
• Push the accelerator pedal.
• Brake booster vacuum pressure is low.
• Operate the steering wheel.
• Parking on steep hill.
l Do not rest your foot on the clutch pedal
while driving because this will cause detec-
tion of clutch pedal malfunction and blink-
ing of AS&G OFF display/indicator, and
AS&G system will not operate.
l If the AS&G system operates while the air
conditioner is operating, both the engine and the air conditioning compressor will stop.
Therefore, only the blower will operate, the
windows may start to fog up. If this occurs,
press the demister switch to restart the en- gine.
Refer to “Demister switch” on page 7-15.
NOTEl If the windows become fogged up each time
the engine is stopped, we recommend you to
deactivate the AS&G system by pressing the
“AS&G OFF” switch. Refer to “To deacti- vate” on page 6-26.
l If the air conditioner is operating, set the
temperature control higher to lengthen the
time that the engine is stopped automatical- ly.Automatically restarting the
engine
E00627601265
Depress the clutch pedal while the gearshift lever is in the “N” (Neutral) position. The in- dication lamp turns off and the engine restarts
automatically.
NOTEl Do not move the gearshift lever to a position
other than the “N” (Neutral) position or do
not release the clutch pedal while the engine is restarting automatically. The starter motor will stop and the engine will not restart auto-
matically.
Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) system*
6-25OKTE18E1Starting and driving6

NOTElFor vehicles with the Auto Stop & Go
(AS&G) system, if the demister switch is
pressed, the Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) sys- tem will not operate and the engine will notstop automatically even if the vehicle is stopped. This is to ensure that good visibility
is maintained.Important operation tips for
the air conditioning E00708302128
lPark 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-
tioning 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. The inside air temperature should
only be 5 to 6 °C below the outside air temperature.
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.
Air conditioning system refrig- erant and lubricant recommen-dations
If the air conditioning seems less effective than usual, the cause might be a refrigerant
leak. We recommend you to have the system inspected.
The air conditioning system in your vehicle must be charged with the refrigerant
HFC- 134a and the lubricant DH-PR.
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 refrigerant into the atmosphere should be prevented.
It is recommended that the refrigerant be re- covered and recycled for further use.
During a long period of disuse
The air conditioning should be operated for at
least five minutes each week, even in cold weather. This is to prevent poor lubrication
of the compressor internal parts and to main-
tain the air conditioning in the best operating
condition.
Air purifier*
E00708401773
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.

Stop the engine immediately and contacta MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point for assistance.
A- Cooling fan
B- Reserve tank
C- Radiator cap
WARNINGl Be careful not to get your hands or clothes
caught in the cooling fan.4. Check the coolant level in the reserve
tank (B).
5. Add coolant to the radiator and/or re-
serve tank if necessary (refer to the
“Maintenance” section).
WARNINGl Make sure that the engine has cooled
down before removing the radiator cap (C), because hot steam or boiling water
otherwise will gush from the filler port and may scald you.CAUTIONl Do not add coolant while the engine is hot.
Suddenly adding cold coolant could damage the engine. Wait for the engine to cool
down, then add coolant a little at a time.6. Examine the radiator hoses for coolant
leakage and the drive belt for looseness
or damage.
If there is anything wrong with the cool-
ing system or drive belt, we recommend
you to have it checked and repaired.Bleeding the fuel system
E00800701423
The fuel system should be bled to remove air
as described below if the fuel supply is ex- hausted during travel.
Pump the hand pump (A) at the top of the fuel filter until the hand pump becomes stiff.Then try again to start the engine.
If the engine does not start, repeat the process
above.
Bleeding the fuel system
8-10OKTE18E1For emergencies8 FULLLOW

CAUTIONlDo not smoke or have any other open flame
near the vehicle while bleeding the fuel sys-
tem.
l Be sure to carefully clean away any spilt fuel
which could ignite and cause a fire.Removal of water from the
fuel filter E00800801525
If the fuel filter indication lamp in the instru-ment panel illuminates during driving, it indi-
cates that water has accumulated in the fuel filter. If this occurs, remove the water as de-
scribed below. 1. Loosen the drain plug (A) of the fuel fil-
ter.
2. Operate the hand pump (B) slowly 6 or 7
times in order to force the water out
through the drain plug (A).
3. Tighten the drain plug (A) when water
no longer comes out.
4. Bleed the air in the fuel system. (Refer to “Bleeding the fuel system” onpage 8-10.)
5. Check to be sure that the fuel filter indi-
cation lamp illuminates when the igni- tion switch is turned to “ON” or the op-
eration mode is put in ON, and that it
goes off when the engine is started. If in
doubt, we recommend you to consult a specialist for necessary information.
CAUTIONl Do not smoke or have any other open flame
near the vehicle while bleeding the fuel sys-
tem.CAUTIONl Be sure to carefully clean away any water
drained out because any fuel mixed with the
water could ignite and cause a fire.Tools, jack and jack handle
