NOTE
 The keyless entry key and F.A.S.T.-key are a precision electr
onic device wi
th a built-in
signal transmitter. Please observe the follow- ing in order to prevent damage. • Do not leave where it may be exposed to heat caused by direct sunlight, such as on top of the dashboard. • Do not take the remote
control transmitter
apart. • Do not excessively bend the key or subject it to strong impacts. • Keep the remote control transmitter dry. • Keep away from magne
tic objects such as
key rings.
• Keep away from devi
ces that produce mag-
netism, such as audio systems, computersand televisions. • Keep away from device
s that emit strong
electromagnetic waves, such as cellularphones, wireless devices and high fre- quency equipment (i
ncluding medical
devices). • 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 immediatel
y contact an autho-
rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. If you notify an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer of the key number, they canmake a new key. The key number is stamped on the key number plate. Keep the key num- ber plate in a safe pl
ace 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-theft starting system)” on page 5-3.Refer to “Free-hand Advanced Security Transmitter (F.A.S.T.-key): “Electronic immobilizer (Anti-thef
t starting system)” on
page 5-19.NOTE
 When the theft-alarm is in the system opera- tional status, the alar
m operates if a door is
opened after using th
e key, the door lock
knob or the power door lock switch to unlock the vehicle.  The system does not enter the preparation status if the keyless entry system or the F.A.S.T.-key was not used to lock the vehi-cle.

attempted. A valid st
art attempt can only be
achieved (subject to ce
rtain conditions) using
a key “registered” to the immobilizer system. All of the keys provided with your new vehi- cle have been program
med to the vehicle’s
electronics.
Only keys that have been programmed to the vehicle’s electronics can be used to start thevehicle. If you lose the key, you can order a key from your authorized Mitsubi
shi Motors dealer by
referring to the key number.To prevent vehicle theft, the ID code for the vehicle keys must be changed. Take your vehicle and all remaining keys toyour authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer to have your ID code changed.
NOTE
 In the following cases, the vehicle may not be able to recognize
the registered ID code
from the key. This mean
s 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 magnet
ic 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 (inc
luding 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
“OFF” position. Then
try to start the engine again. If the enginedoes not start, cont
act an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
NOTE
 The key may not operate
properly when it is
near an object or facility that emits strong electromagnetic waves.  Electronic immobilizer is not compatible with commercially available remote startingsystems. Use of commercially available remote starting systems may result in vehicle starting problems and a loss of security pro-tection.
 A system failure is suspected when the igni- tion switch is turned to the “START” posi-tion, and the engine does
not start. In such a
case, contact an au
thorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer.CAUTION Do not make any altera
tions or additions to
the immobilizer system.
Alterations or addi-
tions could cause failure of the immobilizer.

The Free-hand Advanced Security Transmit-ter (F.A.S.T.-key) enables the doors to belocked and unlocked, the trunk lid to be opened, and the engine to be started and the operation mode to be
changed simply by car-
rying it. The F.A.S.T.-key can also be used as theremote control transmitter of the keyless entry system. Refer to “Free-hand Advanced SecurityTransmitter (F.A.S.T.-
key): Keyless entry
system” on page 5-21.
CAUTION When the remote control transmitter case is opened, be careful to keep water, dust, etc. out. Also, do not touch the internal compo-nents.NOTE
 You may purchase a replacement battery at an electric appliance store.  An authorized Mitsubish

The operations possible with the F.A.S.T.- key can be modified as stated below. (Keyless entry operations are possible.) For details, contact an authorizedMitsubishi Motors dealer. • Enabling only the locking and unlocking of the doors and the opening of the trunklid • Enabling only the starting of the engine • Deactivating the F.A.S.T.-key

When a person enters the operating range ofthe F.A.S.T.-key while carrying the F.A.S.T.-key and presses the driver’s door lock/unlock switch the trunk lid switc
h, verification of the
ID code is performed.The doors can only be locked and unlocked, the trunk lid can only
be opened, the engine
can only be started and the operation mode can only be changed when the ID codes of the vehicle and F.A.S.T.-key match.
WA R N I N G Individuals using ot
her electro-medical
apparatus besides implantable pacemak-ers and implantable
cardiovascular-defi-
brillators should check with the manufacturer of the apparatus to confirm the effect of the electromagnetic wavesused by the F.A.S.T.-key. The electromag- netic waves may affect
the operations of
the electro-medical apparatus.NOTE
 The F.A.S.T.-key uses weak electromagnetic waves. In cases such as the following, operation may be improper or unstable. • The vehicle is near a facility that emits strong electromagnetic
waves, such as a TV
transmitting tower, a pow
er station, a radio
station or an airport
• The key is carried together with other com- munication devices such
as cellular phones
or radios, or electrical appliances such ascomputers • The F.A.S.T.-key touches or is covered by a metal object • A keyless entry system is being used nearby • The battery of the F.A.S.T.-key is run down• The vehicle is in a location with strong electromagnetic
waves or noise
Use the emergency key in such circum- stances.Refer to “To operate without using the F.A.S.T.-key” on page 5-19.  The F.A.S.T.-key is constantly performing reception operations
in its communication
with the vehicle. This means that the batteryis always running down, regardless of how often the F.A.S.T.-key is used. The battery life is about 1 to 2 years, depending on theusage conditions.  Since the F.A.S.T.-key is constantly perform- ing reception operati
ons, the reception of
strong electromagnetic
waves can accelerate
the running down of the ba
ttery. Do not place
near to electrical appliances such as televi- sions or computers.NOTE
