security alarm system is for alerting the sur-
rounding area of suspicious behaviour to prevent un-
lawful entry into the vehicle by operating an alarm
if a door, the tailgate or the bonnet is opened when
the vehicle has not been unlocked using the keyless
entry system or the keyless operation function.
Also, the alarm will be activated if any of the fol-
lowing occur.
l Attempt an unlawful moving of the vehicle.
(the vehicle inclination detection function)
l Detect a motion in the vehicle. (the interior
intrusion detection function)
l Disconnect the battery terminal.
The security alarm system is set to “active”.
When making changes to the settings, please fol-
low the procedure listed in the section titled “Chang-
ing the security alarm settings” on page 1-29.

Communication System (MMCS), screen opera-
tions can be used to make the adjustment. Refer to
the separate owner’s manual for details. CAUTION

not modify or add parts to the securi-
ty alarm system.
Doing so could cause the security alarm
to malfunction. NOTE
l The

alarm system will not be activated if the
doors and the tailgate have been locked using
a key, the inside lock knob or the central
door lock switch (instead of the keyless entry
system or the keyless operation function).
l If the turn-signal lamps do not blink after the
locking and unlocking operation using the
keyless entry system or the keyless operation
function, the security alarm system may be
malfunctioning.
Have the vehicle inspected at a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point.
If the confirmation function (blinking of the
turn-signal lamps by locking and unlocking
the doors and the tailgate) is deactivated, the
turn-signal lamps do not blink after the lock-
ing and unlocking operation.
For information on the confirmation func-
tion, refer to “Keyless entry system” on pa-
ges 1-04, 1-18 and “To operate using the key-
less operation function” on page 1-09.

the point at which the system armed mode goes in-
to effect.
During this time, it is possible to temporarily open

without causing the alarm to sound (for example,
when you forget something inside the vehicle or re-
alize that a window is open). Locking and unlocking

Do
not place heavy luggage on the panor-
amic glass roof. Doing so could damage
the glass roof.
l Do not hang heavy luggage from, allow a
person to hang onto, or apply any other
strong force to the opening of the sun-
shade receptacle or the parts between the
ceiling and the sunshade opening on ei-
ther side. Doing so could damage the sun-
shade.
NOTE l Release

the switch as soon as the sunshade
reaches the fully open or fully closed position. l
If
the sunshade does not operate when the sun-
shade switch is operated, release the switch
and check whether something is trapped by
the sunshade. If nothing is trapped, we recom-
mend you to have the sunshade checked.
l Operating the sunshade repeatedly with the
engine stationary will run down the battery.
