[For vehicles equipped with the Free-hand Advanced Security Transmitter (F.A.S.T.- key)] For information on operations for vehiclesequipped with the Free-hand Advanced Secu- rity Transmitter (F.A.S.T.-key), refer to “Free-hand Advanced Security Transmitter(F.A.S.T.-key)”: “Electronic immobilizer (Anti-theft starting system)” on page 5-27. [Except for vehicles equipped with the Free- hand Advanced Security Transmitter(F.A.S.T.-key)] The electronic immobilizer is designed to sig- nificantly reduce the possibility of vehicletheft. The purpose of the system is to immo- bilize the vehicle if an invalid start is
attempted. A valid start attempt can only be achieved (subject to certain conditions) using a key “registered” to the immobilizer system. All of the keys provided with your new vehi-cle have been programmed to the vehicle’s electronics.
• Keep away from devices that produce mag- netism, such as audio systems, computers and televisions. • Keep away from devices that emit strong electromagnetic waves, such as cellular phones, wireless devices and high fre- quency equipment (including medicaldevices). • Do not clean with ultrasonic cleaners.• Do not leave the key where it may be exposed to high temperature or high humid-ity.
 If you lose your key, to prevent the theft of the vehicle immediately contact an autho- rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. If you notify an authorized MitsubishiMotors dealer of the key number, they can make a new key. The key number is stamped on the key number plate. Keep the key num-ber plate in a safe place separate from the key itself.  No keys other than those registered in advance can be used to start the engine. Refer to “Electronic immobilizer (Anti-theftstarting system)” on page 5-4. Refer to “Free-hand Advanced Security Transmitter (F.A.S.T.-key)”: “Electronic immobilizer (Anti-theft starting system)” on page 5-27.NOTE
 When the theft-alarm is in the system opera- tional status, the alarm operates if a door is opened after using the key, the door lock knob or the power door lock to unlock the vehicle.  The system does not enter the preparation status if the keyless entry system or theF.A.S.T.-key operation was not used to lock the vehicle.

NOTE
NOTE
 Do not attach additional keys or accessories to the ignition key. Such objects could pre- vent the driver’s knee airbag from inflating normally. Refer to “Deployment of front air-bags” on page 4-27.  In the following cases, the vehicle may not be able to recognize the registered ID code from the key. This means the engine will not start even when the key is turned to the“START” position. • When the key contacts a key ring or other metallic or magnetic object (Type A) • When the key grip contacts metal of another key (Type B) • When the key contacts or is close to other immobilizer keys (including keys of other vehicles) (Type C)
 In cases like the above, move the offending object(s) away from the key and turn the key back to the “ACC” or “LOCK” position. Then try to start the engine again. If the engine does not start,
contact an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer.

gency key.
After several attempts, you may experience that the engine still does not start. 1. Make sure that all electric devices, such as lights, air conditioning blower and rear window defogger, are turned off.2. While depressing the brake pedal on vehi- cles equipped with Twin Clutch SST or the clutch pedal on the vehicles equippedwith manual transaxle, press the accelera- tor pedal halfway and hold it there, then crank the engine. Release the acceleratorpedal, 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 on vehi- cles equipped with Twin Clutch SST orthe clutch pedal on the vehicles equipped with manual transaxle, push the accelera- tor pedal all the way down and hold itthere, then crank the engine for 5 to 6 sec- onds. Return the ignition switch to the “LOCK” position and release the acceler-ator pedal. Wait a few seconds, and thencrank the engine again for 5 to 6 seconds while depressing the brake pedal or the clutch pedal, but do not push the accelera-tor pedal. Release the ignition key if the engine starts. If the engine fails to start, repeat these procedures. If the engine stillwill not start, contact your local Mitsubi- shi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice for assistance.
When the ambient temperature is -22 °F (-30 °C) or lower, it may not be possible to startfrom a standstill even with the gearshift lever in the “D” (DRIVE) position. This phenomenon occurs because the trans- mission has not warmed up sufficiently; itdoes not indicate a problem. If it occurs,
NOTE
 Minor noises may be heard on engine start- up. These will disappear as the engine warms up.WA R N I N G Make sure to remove the F.A.S.T.-key from the emergency key after the engine is started. If not removed, the F.A.S.T.-key could fallto the floor, which could disturb the pedal operation. Furthermore, the F.A.S.T.-key could prevent the driver’s knee airbagfrom inflating normally or could be pro- pelled to cause serious injury if the airbag inflates.
NOTE
 If the emergency key is attached to a key ring, it may become impossible to insert the F.A.S.T.-key into the emergency key, and it may prevent the engine from being started. When using the emergency key to start theengine, first remove the key from the key ring.
