  • Mitsubishi Shogun Sport (Trojan) 2500TD (2006) - Lack of owners handbook 13 Sep 2013 (Forum)
    However as I don't have a handbook, can anyone explain the function of the centre instrument of the top of dashboard threesome. It has an outside temp gauge, but the "S" button at the bottom right of the instrument doesn't seem to make any sense. It just changes the flashing S to E to W (points of the compass? where is "N"?) and counts from 0 to 15 and back in steps of 5.
