With the F.A.S.T.-key, warnings are given through buzzers and displays on the informa- tion screen in the multi-information displayin order to prevent mistaken operations or vehicle theft. When a warning operates, be sure to checkthe vehicle and the F.A.S.T.-key. A warning is
ACC ON
NOTE
 Your vehicle is equipped with an electronic immobilizer. To start the engine, the ID codewhich the F.A.S.T.-key sends must match the one registered to the immobilizer computer. (Refer to “Electronic immobilizer (Anti-theftstarting system)” on page 5-23)
Changing the operation mode

CAUTION When the engine is not running, put the oper- ation mode in OFF. Leaving the operation mode in ON or ACC for a long time whenthe engine is not running may cause the bat- tery to be discharged, making it impossible to start the engine.  When the battery is disconnected, the current operation mode is memorized. After recon-necting the battery, the memorized mode is selected automatically. Before disconnect- ing the battery for repair or replacement,make sure to put the operation mode in OFF. Be careful if you are not sure which opera- tion mode the vehicle is in when the batteryis run down. The operation mode cannot be changed from OFF to ACC or ON if the F.A.S.T.-key is not detected to be in the vehicle. Refer to “Oper- ating range for starting the engine andchanging the operation mode” on page 5-14.

Your vehicle is equipped with an electroni- cally controlled fuel injection system. This is a system that automatically controls fuel injection. There is usually no need to depressthe accelerator pedal when starting the engine. 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. 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 trans- axle, place the gearshift lever in the “N”(Neutral) position. On vehicles equipped with continuously variable transmission (CVT), make surethe selector lever is in the “P” (PARK) position. 6. Press the engine switch. 7. Confirm that all warning lights and warn- ing displays are functioning properly.
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)} or the clutch pedal (manual transaxle), pressthe accelerator pedal halfway and hold itthere, 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 theengine switch to crank the engine. If the engine does not start after 5 to 6 seconds, push the engine switch to stop crankingthe engine, and release the accelerator pedal. Put the operation mode in OFF.
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 andcause 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 engine

NOTE
 On vehicles equipped with continuously variable transmission (CVT), the engine can only be started when the selector lever is inthe “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL) posi- tion. For safety reasons, the engine should bestarted when the selector lever is in the “P” (PARK) position in which the driving wheels lock.NOTE
 Minor noises may be heard on engine start- up. These will disappear as the engine warmsup.

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), butdo not push the accelerator pedal. If the engine fails to start, repeat these proce- dures. If the engine still will not start, con-tact your local Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice for assistance.
Startability of continuously variable trans- mission (CVT) vehicles with an ambienttemperature of
-22 °F (-30 °C) or lower
When the ambient temperature is -22 °F (-30 °C) or lower, it may not be possible to startfrom a standstill even with the selector lever in the “D” (DRIVE) or “R” (REVERSE) position.This phenomenon occurs because the trans- axle has not warmed up sufficiently; it does not indicate a problem. If this occurs, placethe 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 beable to start normally. Do not leave the vehicle during warm-up operation.
N00568200014
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 downhill) position.On vehicles equipped with continuously variable transmission (CVT), move the selector lever to the “P” (PARK) position,and then press the engine switch to stopthe engine.
N00568300028
Insert the F.A.S.T.-key into the key slot in the glove box. Starting 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 oper-
ation mode.
Stopping the engine

WA R N I N G 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 andbraking efficiency will deteriorate. Also, the power steering system will not func- tion and it will require greater manualeffort to operate the steering. This could result in a serious accident.NOTE
 If you have to bring the engine to an emer- gency stop while driving, press and hold the engine switch for 3 seconds or more, or press it quickly 3 times or more. The engine willstop and the operation mode will go to ACC.  On vehicles equipped with continuously variable transmission (CVT), do not stop the engine with the selector lever in any position other than the “P” (PARK) position. If theengine is stopped with the selector lever in any position other than the “P” (PARK) posi- tion, the operation mode will go to ACC rather than OFF. Put the operation mode in OFF after placingthe selector lever in the “P” (PARK) posi- tion.
