Starting the engine 5-66 Features and controls
5
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. Press and hold the brake pedal downfirmly with your right foot. 4. Make sure the selector
lever is in the “P”
(PARK) position.5. Turn the ignition switch to the “ON” posi- tion and make certain that all warning lights are functioning properly beforestarting the engine. 6. Turn the ignition switch to the “START” position without pressing the accelerator pedal. Release the
ignition switch when
the engine starts.
After several attemp
ts, 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, press the accelerator peda
l halfway and hold it
there, then crank th
e 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, pushthe accelerator pedal all the way down and hold it there, then crank the engine for 5 to 6 seconds. Return the ignition switch to the “OFF” or “LOCK” position and release the accelerator pedal. Wait a fewseconds, and then crank the engine again for 5 to 6 seconds while depressing the brake pedal, but do no
t push the accelera-
tor pedal. Release the ignition switch if the engine starts. If the engine fails to start, repeat these procedures. If theengine still will not
start, contact your
local Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choi
ce for assistance.
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
WA R N I N G Never run the engine in
a closed or poorly
ventilated area any lo
nger than is needed
to move your vehicle
out of the area. Car-
bon monoxide gas, wh
ich 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 sw
itch as soon as the
engine starts. Otherwis
e, the starter motor
will be damaged

in 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 selectorlever in the “P” (PAR
K) 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 accordance with driving conditions for maximum engineperformance.
N00513200216
Automatic transaxle will automaticallychange its gear depe
nding on road and driv-
ing conditions. This
helps achieve smooth
driving and excellent fuel efficiency. Also you can manually shift up and shiftdown the transaxle. Refer to “Sports mode” on page 5-71. The transaxle prevents
unnecessary upshifts
even when the accelerator pedal is releasedand ensures smooth driving. According to the conditions, the transaxle will automatically shift to a lower gear to achieve stronger engine
braking. This may
help reduce your need
to use the service
brake.
N00513801424
As an additional safe
ty precaution, models
equipped with an automatic transaxle have a shift-lock device that
holds the selector lever
in the “P” (PARK) position. To move theselector lever from the “P” (PARK) position to another position, follow the steps below. 1. Press and hold the brake pedal down. 2. Move the selector lever to the desiredposition.
The transaxle has 6 forward gears and 1 reverse gear.
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 engine revolutions do not rise to over 5,000 rpmeven if the accelerato
r pedal is depressed.

NOTE
 During the break-in pe
riod or immediately
after reconnecting the
battery, your vehicle
may not shift smoothly.
This does not indi-
cate a problem in the transaxle. Shifting will become smoother once the transaxle has been shifted several
times by the electronic
control system.
Selector lever operation

NOTE
 The selector lever cannot
be moved from “P”
(PARK) to other position if the operationmode is put in OFF or ACC, or if the brake pedal is not pressed and held down.

N00546301070
CAUTION When display/indicator blinks, ASC is operating, which means th
at the road is slip-
pery or that your vehi
cle’s wheels are begin-
ning to slip. If this happens, drive slower. If the temperature in the braking system con- tinues to increase due
to continuous brake
control on a slippery road surface, the indicator will blink. To prevent the brake system from overheat-ing, the brake control of the traction control function will be te
mporarily suspended.
The engine control of
the traction control
function and normal br
ake operation will not
be affected. Park your vehicle in a safe place. When thetemperature in the braking system has come down, the indicator will be turned off and the traction control function will start operat- ing again.NOTE
 The indicator may come on when you start the engine. This means that the battery voltage momentarily dropped when theengine was started. It
does not indicate a
malfunction, provided th
at the display goes
out immediately.
 When a spare tire has been put on your vehi- cle, the gripping ability of the tire will be lower, making it more likely that the dis- play/indicator will blink.
