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,
place the gearshift lever in the “P” (PARK) position and let the engine idle for at least 10 minutes. The transmission will warm up, and you willbe able to start normally. Do not leave the vehicle during warm-up operation.

The emergency key is built into the F.A.S.T.- key.When the F.A.S.T.-key cannot be used, such as when the battery of the F.A.S.T.-key or the vehicle has run down, the emergency key canbe used to lock and unlock the driver’s door and to start the engine. To use the emergency key (1), unlock the lock knob (2) and remove it from the F.A.S.T.-key(3).
Turn the emergency key toward the front of the vehicle to lock th
e door. After checking
that the door is locked, turn the emergencykey back to the center and remove it.

3. Insert the emergency key into the ignition switch, and slowly push and turn.
1. [For vehicles with manual transaxle] Push the emergency key in at the “ACC” position and keep it
depressed until it is
turned to the “LOCK” position, andremove. [For vehicles with Twin Clutch SST (sportronic shift transmission)]First, set the gearshift lever to the “P” (PARK) position, and then slowly turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” positionwhile pressing it. 2. Install the cover of the ignition switch.
3. Reinsert the emergency key into the F. A . S . T. - k e y.
NOTE
When the ignition switch cannot be turned from the “LOCK” position to the “ACC” position, turn the ignition switch while turn-ing the steering wheel in both directions.
To turn from “ACC” to “LOCK”
NOTE
For vehicles with Twin Clutch SST, the emergency key cannot be removed unless thegearshift lever is set to the “P” (PARK) posi- tion.
NOTE
Always install the cover of the ignition switch when not using the emergency key.Not doing so could cause damage if foreign material such as dust
gets into the keyhole of
the ignition switch.CAUTION Do not turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position while the vehicle is moving. This will cause the steering wheel to lock, makingit impossible to operate the vehicle. If the engine is stopped while driving, the power brake booster will stop functioning and greater effort for braking will be required. Also, the power steering systemwill not function and it will require greater effort to manually steer the vehicle. Do not leave the ignition switch in the “ON” or “ACC” position for a long time when the engine is not running. The battery will rundown. Do not turn the ignition switch to the “START” position when the engine is run- ning. It will damage the starter motor.

Steering wheel lock Turn the emergency key to the “LOCK” posi- tion. Turn the steering wheel until it is locked. Turn the emergency key to the “ACC” posi- tion while moving the steering wheel slightly.
Tips for starting Do not operate the starter motor continu- ously for longer than 15 seconds as this could run the battery down or damage the starter motor. If the engine does not start,turn the emergency key back to the “LOCK” position, wait a few seconds, and then try again. Trying repeatedly withthe engine or starter motor still turning will damage the starter mechanism. If the engine will not start because the bat- tery is weak or discharged, refer to “Jump-starting the engine” on page 8-2 for instructions. A longer warm up period will only con- sume extra fuel. The
engine is warmed up
enough for driving when the bar graph ofthe engine coolant temperature display starts to move. Refer to “Interrupt display screen (With ignition switch in the “ON”position)” on page 5-100.
On vehicles equipped with the Twin Clutch SST, the following may occur after the engine is started, but they do not indi- cate an abnormality.• You may hear operational sounds of the Twin Clutch SST and you may feel vibration in the vehicle body.• If you shift the gearshift lever into the “N” (NEUTRAL) position and depress the accelerator pedal, increases in theengine speed will be limited.

CAUTION Remove the emergency key when leaving the vehicle. If your vehicle needs to be towed, turn the emergency key to the “ACC” position to unlock the steering wheel.
NOTE
If the front wheels are turned, the anti-theft lock may sometimes make it difficult to turn the emergency key from “LOCK” to “ACC”. Firmly turn the steering wheel to the left or to the right as you turn the emergency key.
Starting
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. Car-bon 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. Release the emergency key as soon as the engine starts. It will damage the startermotor.

The vehicle is equipped with an electronically controlled fuel injection system. This is a sys- tem that automatically controls the fuel injec- tion. There is no need to depress theaccelerator pedal when starting the engine. The starter motor should not be run for more than 15 seconds at a time. To prevent battery drain, wait a few secondsbetween attempts to restart the engine. 1. Make sure all occupants are properly seated with seat belts fastened. 2. While pushing the lock release buttons (A), remove the cover of the ignitionswitch.
3. Insert the emergency key into the ignition switch. 4. Insert the F.A.S.T.-key into the emergency key. 5. Press and hold the brake pedal down with your right foot.
6. Press and hold the clutch pedal all the way down (manual transaxle). 7. On vehicles with manual transaxle, place the gearshift lever in the “N” (Neutral)position.On vehicles with SST, make sure the gear- shift lever is in the “P” (PARK) position. 8. Turn the emergency key with the F.A.S.T.-key to the “ON” position and make certain that all warning lights andwarning displays are functioning properly before starting the engine.
Starting the engine
NOTE
For models equipped with a manual trans- axle, the starter will not operate unless the clutch pedal is fully depressed (Clutch inter-lock). This is a safety feature.NOTE
On vehicles with Twin Clutch SST, the starter will not operate unless the gearshift lever is in the “P” (P
ARK) position or the
gearshift lever is in the “N” (NEUTRAL)position with the brake pedal depressed. For safety reasons, start the engine in the “P” (PARK) position so that the wheels arelocked.

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.
