System characteristics
E00202300055
The principle of the Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) system is that it adapts to the vehi- cle’s needs (i.e. energy supply). This means
that in certain circumstances the engine will not stop and in other circumstances the en-
gine will restart by itself.
Circumstances when the engine
will restart by itself
E00202400027
l The interior temperature rises and the air
conditioning starts operating in order to lower the temperature.
l Electric power consumption is high.
l The brake pedal is depressed repeatedly.
l Vehicle speed is 3 km/h (2 mph)
or
higher when coasting on a slope.
l Mode selection dial is set to the demister
position.
l When the air conditioning is operated by
pressing the air conditioning switch.
l When the preset temperature of the air
conditioning is changed significantly.
l When the air conditioning is operated in
AUTO mode where the temperature con-
trol dial is set to the max. hot or the max.
cool position (for vehicles with automat- ic air conditioning).
Other than the conditions mentioned above, the engine may restart automatically. For de-
tails, refer to “Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) sys- tem” on page 6-18.

NOTElThe engine is designed so that it will not
start if the ID code registered in the immo- bilizer computer and the key’s ID code do
not match. Refer to the “Electronic immobil-
izer” section for details and key usage.
l [For vehicles equipped with the security
alarm system]
Pay attention to the following if the security alarm is set to “Active”.
Refer to “Security alarm system” on page
3-32.
• If the security alarm is in the system
armed mode, the alarm will sound if the doors are opened after being unlocked
with the key, the inside lock knob or the
central door lock switch.
• Even if the security alarm is set to “Ac-
tive”, the system preparation mode is not
entered if the keyless entry system or the keyless operation function was not used to
lock the vehicle.Electronic immobilizer

[For vehicles equipped with keyless opera-tion system]
For information on operations for vehicles equipped with the keyless operation system,
refer to “Keyless operation system: Electron- ic immobilizer (Anti-theft starting system)”
on page 3-12.
[Except vehicles equipped with keyless oper-
ation system]
The electronic immobilizer is designed to significantly reduce the possibility of vehicle
theft. The purpose of the system is to immo-
bilize the vehicle if an invalid start is attemp-
ted. A valid start attempt can only be ach- ieved by using a key “registered” to the im-mobilizer system.NOTEl In the following cases, the vehicle may not
be able to receive the registered ID code from the registered key and the engine may
not start.
• When the key contacts a key ring or other
metallic or magnetic object
• When the key grip contacts metal of an-
other key
NOTE
• When the key contacts or is close to other
immobilizing keys (including keys of oth-er vehicles)
In cases like these, remove the object or additional key from the vehicle key. Then
try again to start the engine. If the engine
does not start, we recommend you to con-

Refer to “Keyless operation system: Keylessentry system” on page 3-22.

The driver should always carry the keyless operation key. This key is necessary for lock-
ing and unlocking the doors and tailgate,
starting the engine and otherwise operating the vehicle, so before locking and leaving the vehicle, be sure to check that you have the
keyless operation key.WARNINGl People with implantable cardiac pace-
makers or implantable cardiovascular-de-
fibrillators should not go near the exterior
transmitters (A) or the interior transmit- ters (B). The radio waves used by the key-
less operation system could adversely af- fect implantable cardiac pacemakers orimplantable cardiovascular-defibrillators.WARNINGl When using electro-medical devices other
than implantable cardiac pacemakers or implantable cardiovascular-defibrillators,
contact the electromedical device manu- facturer ahead of time to determine theaffects of radio waves on the devices. Elec-
tromedical device operations could be af- fected by radio waves.
You can limit the possible operations of
the keyless operation system in the fol-
lowing ways. (The keyless operation system can be used as a keyless entry system.) Consult a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
• You can limit operations to locking
and unlocking the doors and tailgate.
• You can limit operations to starting
the engine.
• The keyless operation system can be
disabled.

When keyless operation system opera-
tions are modified, the transmitters oper- ate as follows. • Only locking and unlocking doors or
tailgate: exterior and interior transmit- ters
• Only starting the engine: interior
transmitterNOTEl The keyless operation key uses an ultra-
weak electromagnetic wave. In the following
cases, the keyless operation system may not
operate properly or may be unstable.
• When there is equipment nearby that
emits strong radio waves, such as: a pow-
er station, a radio/TV broadcasting station or an airport.
• The keyless operation system is carried
together with a communications device such as a cellular phone or radio set, or
with an electronic device such as a per- sonal computer.
• The keyless operation key is touching or
covered by a metal object.

NOTE•A keyless entry system is being used
nearby.
• When the keyless operation key battery is
worn out.
• When the keyless operation key is placed
in an area with strong radio waves or noise.
In such cases, use the emergency key.
Refer to “To operate without using the
keyless operation function” on page 3-21.
l Because the keyless operation key receives
signals in order to communicate with the transmitters in the vehicle, the battery con-tinually wears down regardless of keylessoperation key use. The battery life is 1 to 3 years, depending on usage conditions. When
the battery wears out, have it replaced at a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
l Because the keyless operation key continual-
ly receives signals, strong radio wave recep-
tion could affect battery wear. Do not leave
the key near a TV, personal computer, or
other electronic device.Operating range of the keyless
operation system

You can only lock and unlock the doors and tailgate, start the engine and change the oper-
ation mode if the ID codes of your keyless operation key and the vehicle match.
NOTEl If the keyless operation key battery is wear-
ing out or there are strong electromagnetic
waves or noise present, the operating range
may become smaller and operation may be-
come unstable.Operating range for locking
