• Do not excessively bend the key or sub-
ject it to strong impacts.
• Do not expose to water.
• Keep away from magnetic key rings.
• Keep away from audio systems, personal
computers, TVs, and other equipment that generates a magnetic field.
• Keep away from devices that emit strong
electromagnetic waves, such as cellular phones, wireless devices and high fre-
quency equipment (including medical de- vices).NOTE• Do not clean with ultrasonic cleaners or
similar equipment.
• Do not leave the key where it may be ex-
posed to high temperature or high humidi-
ty.
l The engine is designed so that it will not
start if the ID code registered in the immo-

signed to significantly reduce the possibility of vehicle theft. The purpose of the system is
to immobilize the vehicle if an invalid start is
attempted. A valid start attempt can only be achieved by using a key “registered” to the immobilizer system.NOTEl [Vehicles without keyless operation system]
In the following cases, the vehicle may not be able to receive the registered ID code from the registered key and engine may not
start.
• When the key contacts a key ring or other
metallic or magnetic object
• When the key grip contacts metal of an-
other key
NOTE

The keyless operation system allows you tolock and unlock the doors, start the engine
and change the operation mode simply by
carrying the keyless operation key with you. The switches on the keyless operation key can also be used as the key switch of keyless
entry system.
Refer to “Starting and stopping the engine” on page 6-18.
Refer to “Keyless entry system*” on page 3-04.
The driver should always carry the keyless operation key. This key is necessary for lock- ing and unlocking the doors, starting the en-
gine and otherwise operating the vehicle, so before locking and leaving the vehicle, be
sure to check that you have the keyless oper- ation key.
WARNINGl People with implantable cardiac pace-
makers or implantable cardiovascular-de- fibrillators should not go near the exterior
transmitters (A) or the interior transmit-
ters (B). The radio waves used by the key-
less operation system could adversely af- fect implantable cardiac pacemakers orimplantable cardiovascular-defibrillators.

WARNINGlWhen using electro-medical devices other
than implantable cardiac pacemakers or implantable cardiovascular-defibrillators,
contact the electro-medical device manu- facturer ahead of time to determine theaffects of radio waves on the devices. Elec-
tro-medical device operations could be af- fected by radio waves.
You can limit the possible operations of the
keyless operation system in the following ways. (The keyless operation system can be
used as a keyless entry system.) Please con-
sult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point.
l You can limit operations to locking and
unlocking the doors.
l You can limit operations to starting the
engine.
l The keyless operation system can be dis-
abled.
When keyless operation system operations are modified, the operating transmitters are as
follows.
l Only locking and unlocking doors: exte-
rior transmitter and interior transmitter
l Only starting the engine: interior trans-
mitterNOTEl The keyless operation key uses an ultra-
weak electromagnetic wave. In the following
cases, the keyless operation system may not
operate properly or may be unstable.
• When there is equipment nearby that
emits strong radio waves, such as: a pow-
er station, a radio/TV broadcasting station or an airport.
• The keyless operation system is carried
together with a communications device such as a cellular phone or radio set, or
with an electronic device such as a per- sonal computer.
• The keyless operation key is touching or
covered by a metal object.
• A keyless entry system is being used
nearby.
• When the keyless operation key battery is
worn out.NOTE• When the keyless operation key is placed
in an area with strong radio waves or noise.
In such cases, use the emergency key.
Refer to “To lock/unlock without using
the keyless operation function” on page 3-11.
l Because the keyless operation key receives
signals in order to communicate with the transmitters in the vehicle, the battery con-tinually wears down regardless of keylessoperation key use. The battery life is 1 to 2
years, depending on usage conditions. When the battery wears out, replace the battery ac-cording to the description in this manual or
have it replaced a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.
Refer to “Procedure for replacing the key battery” on page 3-06.
l Because the keyless operation key continual-
ly receives signals, strong radio wave recep- tion could affect battery wear. Do not leave
the key near a TV, personal computer, or
other electronic device.Operating range of the keyless
