Security alarm system*
E00301500569
The
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.
On vehicles equipped with MITSUBISHI Multi-
Communication System (MMCS), screen opera-
tions can be used to make the adjustment. Refer to
the separate owner’s manual for details. CAUTION
l
Do
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.
l The security alarm system could be activated
in the following situations.
• Using a car wash
• Taking the vehicle on a ferry
• Parking in an automated car park
• Leaving someone or a pet in the vehicle
• Leaving a window open
• Leaving an unstable object such as a stuf-fed toy or accessory in the vehicle
• Suffering a continuous impact or vibra- tion by hail, thunder, etc.
According to the situations, deactivate the ve-
hicle inclination detection function and the in-
terior intrusion detection function. Refer to “To
deactivate the vehicle inclina-
tion detection function and the interior intru-
sion detection function” on page 1-31.

thorized Service Point.
The security alarm has four modes:
System preparation mode (approx. 20 seconds)

point

at which all of the doors and the tailgate are
locked by pressing the LOCK switch on the remote
control switch or the keyless operation function to
the point at which the system armed mode goes in-
to effect.
During this time, it is possible to temporarily open
a door or the tailgate without using the keyless en-
try system or the keyless operation function and
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
