3Theft-alarm system
N00510200156
The theft-alarm system is designed to provide protection from
unauthorized entry into the vehicle. This system is operated in
three stages: the first is the “armed” stage, the second is the
“alarm” stage, and third is the “disarmed” stage. If triggered,
the system provides both audible and visual alarm signals.
Armed stagePark the vehicle and stop the engine. Arm the system as
described below.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” position.
Also, if a key was used to start the engine, remove the key
from the ignition switch.
2. Make sure that the engine hood is locked.
3. Lock all doors and the tailgate by the remote control trans-
mitter, using either the F.A.S.T.-key.NOTE
If a door is open, after locking with the remote control
transmitter, close the door.
CAUTION
!
Do not modify or add parts to the theft-alarm sys-
tem. Doing so could cause the theft-alarm to mal-
function.
Arm the system and leave

At this time, the theft-alarm indicator (A) on the audio
panel flashes for confirmation. [The buzzer sounds inter-
mittently at the same time the theft-alarm indicator (A)
flashes. (if so equipped)]
4. The system has entered the armed stage after about 20
seconds, when the theft-alarm indicator (A) flashing
becomes slower. (The buzzer stops at this time.)
The theft-alarm indicator (A) continues to flash while the
system is in the armed stage.
NOTE
If the engine hood is open, the theft-alarm indicator (A)
illuminates and the system cannot enter the armed stage.
The system enters the armed stage about 20 seconds after
the engine hood is closed.
The system will be disarmed if, while the theft-alarm indi-
cator (A) is illuminated, all doors and the tailgate are
unlocked by remote control transmitter, the F.A.S.T.-key.
The system will be disarmed if, while the theft-alarm indi-
cator is illuminated, the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” or “ACC”.
The system will not be armed if a door is not completely
closed. If this happens, rearm the system as described
above.
The security alarm system can be activated when people
are riding inside the vehicle or when the windows are
open. To prevent accidental activation of the alarm, do not
set the system to the system armed mode while people are
riding in the vehicle.

Brake pad wear alarm
N00550700124
The disc brakes have an alarm that makes a metallic squeal
when the brake pads have worn down enough to need service.
If you hear this sound, have the brake pads replaced at an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your
choice.
Hill start assist
(if so equipped)
N00562600016
The hill start assist makes it easy to start off on a steep uphill
slope by preventing the vehicle from moving backwards. It
keeps the braking force for about 2 second when you move
your foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
WA R N I N G
!
Driving with worn brake pads will make it harder to
stop, and can cause an accident.
CAUTION
!
Do not overly rely on the hill start assist to prevent
backwards movement of the vehicle. Under certain
circumstances, even when hill start assist is acti-
vated, the vehicle may move backwards if the brake
pedal is not sufficiently depressed, if the vehicle is
heavily loaded, or if the road is very steep or slip-
pery.
The hill start assist is not designed to keep the vehi-
cle stopped in place on uphill slopes for more than 2
seconds.
When facing uphill, do not rely on using the hill
start assist to maintain a stopped position as an
alternative to depressing the brake pedal.
Doing so could cause an accident.
Do not turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” or
“ACC” position while the hill start assist is operat-
ing. The hill start assist could stop operating, which
could result in an accident.
