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 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 facility
of your choice.
For quick defrosting
While the “ ” indicator light is on, the air
conditioning compressor will run automati-
cally. The outside air position will also be
selected and the blower speed will be set at
the maximum automatically.
If the “ ” indicator light is on, you cannot
turn the air conditioner off or select the recir-
culation position. This prevents 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.

operating tips
Air conditioning system refrig-
erant and lubricant recommen-
dations
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 and may require replac-
ing your vehicle’s entire 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 to
global warming.
It is recommended that the old refrigerant be
saved and recycled for future use.
