thorized Service Point.WARNINGl Do not use the
MITSUBISHI Remote
Control if children, persons in need of care, pets, etc. are in the vehicle. Even if the remote climate control is used, thecabin may become hot or cold due to somereasons such as automatic stop of the sys-
tem. The cabin temperature may quickly
rise in sunshine, which poses a risk of heat
stroke and dehydration. In cold weather, on the other hand, the cabin temperature
may quickly drop. Either of which could lead to death in the worst case.
In addition, children can activate switches and controls, resulting in injury or a fatal
accident.
l The cooling fan in the engine compart-
ment may operate automatically when

ing a wireless LAN device:
• Communication speed and range vary de-
pending on the wireless LAN devices and the surrounding conditions (radio environ-
ment, obstacles, parking area environ- ment, etc.).
• Due to the characteristics of radio waves,
communication speed tends to decrease as the communication distance increases.
Use your wireless LAN device at a short
distance from the vehicle for better re- sponse.
• When a microwave oven or ISM (indus-
trial, scientific and medical) equipment is being used, the communication speed andrange of wireless LAN devices may de-crease. Use your wireless LAN device
away from these appliances and equip-
ment.NOTE• If a wireless LAN device and Bluetooth
(registered trademark of Bluetooth SIG, Inc.) are used simultaneously, the com-
munication speed and range of each de- vice may decrease. Use your wireless
LAN device away from Bluetooth devi- ces.
l Wireless LAN devices may not communi-
cate with the vehicle, or may not operate
normally or stably in the following environ- ment or situations. Check that the device cancommunicate with your vehicle before use.
• There is an obstruction such as a concrete
or metal wall between the vehicle and
wireless LAN device.
• The vehicle is surrounded by tall vehicles
in a parking lot.
• There are facilities nearby that emit strong
radio waves, such as a TV tower, trans-
former substation, broadcasting station or airport.
• There is a communication device such as
a mobile phone or radio, or an electric de- vice such as a personal computer near thewireless LAN device.
• The wireless LAN device is in contact
with or covered by a metal object.
• The battery of the wireless LAN device
has run down.

l Some charging facilities have a timer func-
tion that turns the power on or off at a spe-
cific time of the day. When charging at a fa- cility with a timer function, make sure that the charging timer is set within the time peri-od when the power in the charging facility is on.
l The auxiliary battery is automatically and
periodically charged using electrical power
stored in the drive battery. A buzzer sounds in the cabin while the auxiliary battery is be-
ing charged.
l While the remote climate control is operat-
ing or the charging, the cooling fan or air conditioner compressor may start operating and its sound may be heard. This is normal.
l The remote climate control operates in its
own mode based on the mode selected on
the wireless LAN device, regardless of the switch setting of the vehicle’s air condition-
er.
l Air conditioning performance may deterio-
rate or the remaining charge in the drive bat-NOTEtery may decrease under the following con-ditions:
• In extremely hot weather.
• In hot sunshine.
• In extremely cold weather.
l If the remote climate control is started dur-
ing charging, the time until full charge may extend or the charging rate may decrease.
l When the remaining quantity of the drive
battery is decreased, the remote climate con-
trol does not operate or it may stop on the way.
