vated.
For details, we recommend you to consult an authorized

N00503500173
With the F.A.S.T.-key, warnings are given through buzzers and
displays on the information screen in the multi-information
display in order to prevent mistaken operations or vehicle theft.
When a warning operates, be sure to check the vehicle and the
F.A.S.T.-key. A warning is also displayed if there is a problem
in the F.A.S.T.-key.
If the following warning displays, contact an authorized Mit-
subishi Motors dealer.
CAUTION
!
When the engine is not running, put the operation
mode in OFF. Leaving the operation mode in ON or
ACC for a long time when the engine is not running
may cause the battery to be discharged, making it
impossible to start the engine and to lock and unlock
the steering wheel.
When the battery is disconnected, the current oper-
ation mode is memorized. After reconnecting the
battery, the memorized mode is selected automati-
cally. Before disconnecting the battery for repair or
replacement, make sure to put the operation mode
in OFF.
Be careful if you are not sure which operation mode
the vehicle is in when the battery is run down.
The operation mode cannot be changed from OFF to
ACC or ON if the F.A.S.T.-key is not detected to be
in the vehicle. Refer to “Operating range for start-
ing the engine and changing the operation mode” on
page 3-18.

N00559800128
When the operation mode in any mode other than OFF, and a
door is opened and the F.A.S.T.-key is removed from the pas-
senger compartment so that the ID codes of the F.A.S.T.-key
and the vehicle can no longer be verified, the warning display
is displayed and the buzzer sounds 4 times as a warning.NOTE

function if the F.A.S.T.-key is removed through a window
without opening a door.
This setting can be changed.
See an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer for details.

The warning may display even if the F.A.S.T.-key is in the
operating range for starting the engine and changing the
operation mode. The surrounding environment or electro-
magnetic waves may make it impossible to verify the ID
codes of the F.A.S.T.-key and vehicle.
Put the operation mode in OFF and then start the
engine again.
If the warning is not cancelled, there is a fault in
the electronic immobilizer (Anti-theft starting sys-
tem).
Please contact an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer.
Someone may be carrying a F.A.S.T.-key with a
different ID code, or the F.A.S.T.-key may not be
within the operating range

N00514600161
Tips for starting
The operation mode can be in any mode to start the
engine.

The starter motor will be turning for up to approximately
15 seconds if the engine switch is released at once. Press-
ing the engine switch again while the starter motor is still
turning will stop the starter motor. The starter motor will
be turning for up to approximately 30 seconds while the
engine switch is pressed.
If the engine does not start, wait for a while and then
attempt to start the engine again. Trying repeatedly with
the starter motor still turning will damage the starter
mechanism.
If the engine will not start because the battery is weak or
discharged, refer to “Jump-starting the engine” on page 6-
2 for instructions.

A longer warm up period will only consume extra fuel.
The engine is warmed up enough for driving when the bar
graph of engine coolant temperature display starts to
move. Refer to “Interrupt display screen (With ignition
switch or operation mode in ON)” on page 3-140.
Starting the engineYour vehicle is equipped with an electronically controlled fuel
injection system. This is a system that automatically controls
fuel injection. There is no need to depress the accelerator pedal
when starting the engine.
To prevent battery drain, wait a few seconds between attempts
to restart the engine.
WA R N I N G
!
Never run the engine in a closed or poorly ventilated
area any longer than is needed to move your vehicle
out of the area. Carbon monoxide gas, which is
odorless and extremely poisonous, could build up
and cause serious injury or death.
CAUTION
!
Do not push-start the vehicle.
Do not run the engine at high rpms or drive at high
speeds until the engine has had a chance to warm
up.

Make sure all doors are tightly closed and locked
while driving.
• Locked doors, in combination with the use of seat
belts, can help reduce the risk of ejection in an
accident.
• Locked doors can help keep passengers, especially
small children, from opening doors and falling out
of moving vehicles.
• Locked doors can help prevent outsiders from
gaining access to your vehicle when you slow or
come to a stop.

Lock your vehicle whenever you leave it. Children
who get into unlocked vehicles may not be able to
get out. Children trapped inside vehicles can quickly
be overcome by heat and suffer serious injury or
death due to heat stroke.
Never leave a child alone in the vehicle. In addition
to the risk of heat stroke, children can activate
switches and controls, resulting in an injury or fatal
accident.
When closing a door, make sure that the door is fully
closed and the door-ajar warning display goes out
on the information screen on the multi-information
display. If the door is ajar it could open while driv-
ing and cause an accident.

that there are no people nearby and be careful not to
hit your head or pinch your hands, neck, etc.
