 Do not operate the starter motor continu- ously for longer than
15 seconds as this
could run the battery down or damage thestarter motor. If the engine does not start, turn the ignition switch back to the “OFF” position, wait a few seconds, and then tryagain. Trying repeatedly with the 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 ofengine coolant temperature display starts to move. Refer to “Interrupt display screen (With ignition switch or operationmode in ON)” on page 5-93.
This model is equipped with an electronically controlled fuel injection system. This is a sys-tem that automatically controls fuel injection. There is usually no need to depress the accel- erator pedal when starting the engine.The starter 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. Insert the ignition key.3. Make sure the parking brake is applied. 4. Press and hold the brake pedal down with your right foot.5. Press and hold the clutch pedal all the way down (manual transaxle).
6. On vehicles equipped with manual trans- axle, place the gearshift lever in the “N” (Neutral) position. On vehicles equipped with continuouslyvariable transmission (CVT), make sure the selector lever is in the “P” (PARK) position. 7. Turn the ignition switch to the “ON” posi- tion and make certain that all warning lights are functioning properly beforestarting the engine. 8. Turn the ignition switch to the “START” position without pressing the acceleratorpedal. Release the key when the engine starts.
Tips for 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 ignition switch as soon as the engine starts. Otherwise, the starter motorwill be damaged.
Starting the engine
NOTE
 On vehicles equipped with CVT, the starter will not operate unless the selector lever is in the “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL) posi- tion.For safety reasons, start the engine in the “P” (PARK) position so that the wheels are locked.NOTE
 Minor noises may be heard on engine start- up. These will disappear as the engine warms up.

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 {contin-uously variable transmission (CVT)} orthe clutch pedal (manual transaxle), press the accelerator pedal halfway and hold it there, then crank the engine. Release theaccelerator 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 crank the engine for 5 to 6 seconds. Return the igni-tion switch to the “OFF” position and release the accelerator pedal. Wait a few seconds, and then crank the engine againfor 5 to 6 seconds while depressing thebrake pedal (CVT) or the clutch pedal (manual transaxle), but do not push the accelerator pedal. Release the ignition keyif the engine starts. If the engine fails to start, repeat these procedures. If the engine still will not start, contact yourlocal Mitsubishi 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 start from a standstill even with the selector leverin the “D” (DRIVE) or “R” (REVERSE) position.
This 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 theengine idle for at least 10 minutes. The transaxle will warm up, and you will be able to start normally.Do not leave the vehicle during warm-up operation.

2. Move the selector lever to the desired position.
The CVT selects an optimum ratio automati- cally when the selector lever is in the “D” (DRIVE) position, depending on the speed ofthe vehicle and the position of the accelerator pedal. The selector lever (A) has 2 gates; the maingate (B) and the manual gate (C).

When the selector lever cannot be shiftedfrom the “P” (PARK) position to anotherposition while the brake pedal is pressed and held down with the ignition switch or the operation mode in ON, the battery may be flator the shift-lock mechanism may be malfunc- tioning. Immediately have your vehicle checked by anauthorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.
NOTE
 The selector lever cannot be moved from “P” (PARK) to another position if the ignitionswitch is set to the “OFF” or “ACC” posi- tion, or if the key has been removed, or if the brake pedal is not pressed and held down.NOTE
 There are 4 selector lever positions in the main gate.
 For information on manual gate operation, please refer to “Sports mode” on page 5-53.
Set the selector lever in the gate to operate while the brake pedal is depressed. Set the selector lever in the gate to operate.
WA R N I N G Always press the brake pedal when shift- ing the selector lever into a selector posi-tion from the “N” (NEUTRAL) position. When beginning to driv
e, do not shift the
selector lever from the “N” (NEUTRAL)position while pressing the accelerator pedal. This will cause the vehicle to “jump” forward or backward.NOTE
NOTE
 To prevent mistakes in operating the lever, make sure you stop briefly at each position. After operating, check the position in the multi-information display.  If the brake pedal is not depressed and held, the shift-lock device activates to prevent the selector lever from being moved from the“P” (PARK) position.  For a shift indicated by in the illustra- tion, depress the brake pedal before moving the selector lever. If
you attempt to move the
selector lever before depressing the brake pedal, the selector lever may be immovable.

If the ambient temperature is low, the selector lever position display on the multi-informa- tion display may blink when the selector lever is placed in the “D” (DRIVE) or “R”(REVERSE) position immediately after the engine has been started. This indicates that the transmission requires warming up. Whilethe display is blinking, the vehicle will not move, because the transmission keeps disen-
