After approximately 30
minutes has elapsed
with the operation mode in ACC, the function automatically cuts out the power for the audiosystem and other electr
ic devices that can be
operated with that mode. When the engine switch is pressed while theoperation mode is in ACC, the power is sup- plied again to
those devices.

ON NOTE
Your vehicle is equippe
d with an electronic
immobilizer. To start
the engine, the ID code
which the F.A.S.T.-key sends must match theone registered to the immobilizer computer. (Refer to “Electronic immobilizer (Anti-theft starting system)” on page 5-18)
Changing the operation mode

CAUTION When the engine is not running, put the oper- ation mode in OFF. Leaving the operationmode in ON or ACC for a long time when the engine is not running may cause the bat- tery to be discharged, making it impossibleto start the engine. When the battery is disconnected, the current operation mode is memorized. After recon- necting the battery, the memorized mode is selected auto
matically. 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 battery
is run down. The operation mode ca
nnot 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 and changing the operation mode” on page 5-15.
ACC power auto-cutout function

NOTE
 It is possible to modi
fy functions as follows:
• The time until the
power cuts out can be
changed to approxi
mately 60 minutes.
• The ACC power auto-c
utout function can
be deactivated. For details, we reco
mmend you to consult an
authorized Mitsubish
i Motors dealer.
On vehicles equipped with Mitsubishi Motors Multi-Communication System,screen operations can be used to make the adjustment. Refer to the separate Mitsubishi Multi-Com-munications System
manual for details.

 The operation mode ca
n be in any mode
to start the engine. The starter motor will be turning for up to approximately 15 seconds if the engine switch is released at once. Pressing the engine switch again while the starter motor is still turning will stop the startermotor. The starter motor will be turning for up to approximately 30 se
conds while the
engine switch is pressed.
If the engine does not start, wait for a while and then attempt to start the engineagain. 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 8-2for instructions.  A longer warm up period will only con- sume extra fuel. The engine is warmed up enough for driv- ing when the bar graph of engine coolanttemperature display star
ts to move or the
low coolant temperature indicator goes out. Refer to “Engine coolant temperaturedisplay” on page 5-134 or “Low coolant temperature indicato
r” on page 5-172.
Your vehicle is equipped with an electroni- cally controlled fuel injection system. This system automatically controls fuel injection. There is no need to depress the acceleratorpedal when starting the engine. To prevent battery drain, wait a few seconds between 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 downfirmly with your right foot. 4. Make sure the selector
lever is in the “P”
(PARK) position.

WA R N I N G Never run the engine in
a closed or poorly
ventilated area any longer than is neededto 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
 After the engine has not
started for a while,
the brake pedal effort needed to start the engine may become grea
ter. If this occurs,
depress the brake pedal more firmly thanusual.CAUTION

5. Press the engine switch. 6. Confirm that all wa
rning 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 conditio
ning blower and rear
window defogger, are turned off. 2. While depressing the brake pedal, pressthe accelerator peda
l halfway and hold it
there, then crank th
e engine. Release the
accelerator pedal, immediately after theengine starts.
3. If the engine still will not start, the engine could be flooded with too much gasoline.While depressing the brake pedal, push the accelerator pedal all the way down and hold it there, then press the engineswitch to crank the engine. If the engine does not start after 5 to 6 seconds, push the engine switch
to stop cranking the
engine, and release th
e accelerator pedal.
Put the operation mode in OFF. Wait a few seconds, and then press the engine switch to crank the engine again while depressing the brake pedal, but do notpush the accelerator
pedal. If the engine
fails to start, repeat
these procedures. If
the engine still will
not start, contact your
local Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choi
ce for assistance.
Startability of the engine with an ambient temperature of -22 °F (-30 °C) or lowerWhen 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) position. This phenomenon occurs because the trans- axle has not warmed up sufficiently; it doesnot indicate a problem.
If this occurs, place
the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) position and let the engine idle for at least 10 minutes.The transaxle will wa
rm up, and you will be
able to start normally.
Do not leave the vehicle during warm-up operation. The MIVEC engine automatically switches its intake-valve control between a low-speed mode and a high-speed mode in accordancewith driving conditions for maximum engine performance.
N00568201024
NOTE
 The engine can only be started when the selector lever is in the “P” (PARK) or “N”(NEUTRAL) position.For safety reasons, the engine should be started when the selector lever is in the “P” (PARK) position in which the driving wheelslock.NOTE
 Minor noises may be heard on engine start- up. These will disappear as the engine warms up.

Using the MIVEC engine
NOTE
 To protect the engine
, the high-speed mode
may not be selected wh
ile the engine coolant
temperature is low. In such a case, the enginerevolutions do not rise to over 5,000 rpm even if the accelerato
r pedal is depressed.
Stopping the engine

WA R N I N GDo not operate the en
gine switch while
driving except in an emergency. If theengine is stopped while driving, the brakeservomechanism will ce
ase to function and
braking efficiency will deteriorate. Also, the power steering system will not func-tion and it will require greater manual effort to operate the steering. This could result in a serious accident.
