N00514600275
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 3-142.
WARNING
!
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.

Starting the engineYour vehicle is equipped with an electronically controlled fuel
injection system. This is a system that automatically controls
fuel injection. There is usually no need to depress the accelera-
tor pedal when starting the engine.
To prevent battery drain, wait a few seconds between attempts
to restart the engine.1. Make sure all occupants are properly seated with seat belts fastened.
2. Make sure the parking brake is applied.
3. Press and hold the brake pedal down with your right foot.
4. Press and hold the clutch pedal all the way down (manual transaxle).
5. On vehicles equipped with manual transaxle, place the gearshift lever in the “N” (Neutral) position.
On vehicles equipped with continuously variable trans-
mission (CVT), make sure the selector lever is in the “P”
(PARK) position.NOTE
On vehicles equipped with continuously variable trans-
mission (CVT), the engine can only be started when the
selector lever is in the “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL)
position.
For safety reasons, the engine should be started when the
selector lever is in the “P” (PARK) position in which the
driving wheels lock.
6. Press the engine switch.
7. Confirm that all warning lights and warning displays are functioning properly.
NOTE
Minor noises may be heard on engine start-up. These will
disappear as the engine warms up.
When the engine is hard to start
After several attempts, you may experience that the engine still
does not start. 1. Make sure that all electric devices, such as lights, air con- ditioning blower and rear window defogger, are turned
off.
2. While depressing the brake pedal {continuously variable transmission (CVT)} or the clutch pedal (manual tran-
saxle), press the accelerator pedal halfway and hold it
there, then crank the engine. Release the accelerator
pedal, immediately after the engine starts.
3. If the engine still will not start, the engine could be flooded with too much gasoline. While depressing the
brake pedal (CVT) or the clutch pedal (manual transaxle),
push the accelerator pedal all the way down and hold it
there, then press the engine switch to crank the engine. If
the engine does not start after 5 to 6 seconds, push the
engine switch to stop cranking the engine, and release the
accelerator pedal. Put the operation mode in OFF. Wait a
few seconds, and then press the engine switch to crank the
engine again while depressing the brake pedal (CVT) or
the clutch pedal (manual transaxle), but do not push the
accelerator pedal. If the engine fails to start, repeat these
procedures. If the engine still will not start, contact your
local Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your
choice for assistance.

Startability of continuously variable transmission (CVT)
vehicles with an ambient temperature of -22 °F (-30 ° C) or
lower
When the ambient temperature is -22 °F (-30 ° C) or lower, it
may not be possible to start from a standstill even with the
selector lever in the “D” (DRIVE) position.
This phenomenon occurs because the transaxle has not warmed
up sufficiently; it does not indicate a problem. If this occurs,
place the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) position and let the
engine idle for at least 10 minutes.
The transaxle will warm up, and you will be able to start nor-
mally.
Do not leave the vehicle during warm-up operation.Stopping the engine
N00568200014
NOTE
If you have to bring the engine to an emergency stop
while driving, press and hold the engine switch for 3 sec-
onds or more, or press it quickly 3 times or more. The
engine will stop and the operation mode will go to ACC.

On vehicles equipped with continuously variable trans-
mission (CVT), do not stop the engine with the selector
lever in any position other than the “P” (PARK) position.
If the engine is stopped with the selector lever in any posi-
tion other than the “P” (PARK) position, the operation
mode will go to ACC rather than OFF.
Put the operation mode in OFF after placing the selector
lever in the “P” (PARK) position.
1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Fully engage the parking brake while depressing the brake pedal.
3. On vehicles with a manual transaxle, press the engine switch to stop the engine, and then move the gearshift
lever to the 1st (on a uphill) or “R” (Reverse) (on a down-
hill) position.
On vehicles equipped with continuously variable trans-
mission (CVT), move the selector lever to the “P”
(PARK) position, and then press the engine switch to stop
the engine.
If the F.A.S.T.-key is not operating properly
N00568300028
Insert the F.A.S.T.-key into the key slot in the glove box. Start-
ing the engine and changing the operation mode should be now
possible.
Remove the F.A.S.T.-key from the key slot after starting the
engine or changing the operation mode.
WARNING
!
Do not operate the engine switch while driving
except in an emergency. If the engine is stopped
while driving, the brake servomechanism will cease
to function and braking efficiency will deteriorate.
Also, the power steering system will not function
and it will require greater manual effort to operate
the steering. This could result in a serious accident.
