[For vehicles equippe

For information on operations for vehicles equipped with the Free-hand Advanced Secu-rity Transmitter (F.A.S.T.-key), refer to “Free-hand Advanced Se 
curity Transmitter 
(F.A.S.T.-key): Electronic immobilizer (Anti-theft starting system)” on page 5-29. [Except for vehicles equipped with the Free- hand Advanced Security Transmitter (F.A.S.T.-key)]The electronic immobilize 
r is designed to sig- 
nificantly reduce the  
possibility of vehicle 
theft. The purpose of the system is to immo- bilize the vehicle if 
 an invalid start is 
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.
• 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 be 
nd the key or subject 
it to strong impacts. • Keep the remote control transmitter dry. • Keep away from magnetic objects such as key rings. • Keep away from devi 
ces that produce mag- 
netism, such as audio systems, computers and televisions. • Keep away from devices that emit strong electromagneti 
c waves, such as cellular 
phones, 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.NOTE
 No keys other than those registered in advance can be used  
to start the engine. 
Refer to “Electronic immobilizer (Anti-theftstarting system)” on page 5-4. Refer to “Free-hand  
Advanced Security 
Transmitter (F.A.S.T.-key): “Electronicimmobilizer (Anti-thef 
t starting system)” on 
page 5-29.  When the theft-alarm is in the system opera- tional status, the alarm operates if a door or liftgate is opened after using the key, thedoor 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 operation was not used to lockthe vehicle.
Electronic immobilizer  (Anti-theft starting system) 
CAUTION Do not make any altera
tions or additions to 
the immobilizer system.  
Alterations or addi- 
tions could cause failur 
e of the immobilizer.
NOTE
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.

You can program new keys to the system if you have two valid (alr 
eady registered) keys 
and blank immobilizer ke 
y (specially cut for 
your vehicle at your Mitsubishi Motorsdealer) by doing the following: 1. Insert the first valid key into the ignition switch and turn the key to the “ON” posi-tion for 5 seconds. 2. Turn the key to the “OFF” or “LOCK” position and remove the first key.3. Within 30 seconds of removing the first key, insert the second valid key into the ignition and turn it to the “ON” position.About 10 seconds la 
ter, the immobilizer 
display will start to blink. 
4. When the immobilizer display starts blinking, turn the second valid key to the“OFF” or “LOCK” position and remove it. Within 30 seconds after doing so, insert a blank immobilizer ke 
y into the ignition 
switch and turn it to the “ON” position. Perform this operation no more than 30 seconds after the immobilizer displaystarts blinking. When registration of the ID code is complete, the immobilizer dis- play will come on for 30 seconds then go off. If an error occurs, the blinking immo- bilizer display will  
go off during the pro- 
cedure. 5. If you wish to register another key, per- form the process again from step 1.
N00562301094
Your electronic imm 
obilizer operates on a 
radio frequency subject  
to Federal Communi- 
cations Commission (FCC) Rules (For vehi- cles sold in U.S.A.) and Industry Canada Rules (For vehicles so 
ld in Canada). This 
device complies with part 15 of FCC Rules and Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s).
Customer key programming  (Except for vehicles sold in Canada) 
NOTE
 Perform the operation when the interrupt dis- play screen is not show 
ing. The interrupt dis- 
play screen may prevent you from seeing the immobilizer display.  It is not possible to register a key if: • the immobilizer displa 
y goes off during the 
procedure • the immobilizer disp 
lay does not come on 
within 30 seconds after step 4.
 The procedure will be terminated automati- cally if: • a period of 30 seconds or longer elapses from the moment when the first key is turned to the “OFF” or “LOCK” position tothe moment when the second key is turned to the “ON” position • a period of 30 seconds or longer elapses from the moment when the second key is turned to the “OFF” or “LOCK” position tothe moment when the blank immobilizer key is turned to the “ON” position 
 To use the new remote control transmitters, it is necessary to register 
 the key with both the 
electronic immobilizer  
and keyless entry sys- 
tem. Also refer to “Keyless entry system: Cus- tomer remote control transmitter program-ming” on page 5-9.

“Free-hand Advanced Se 
curity Transmitter 
(F.A.S.T.-key): Starting” on page 5-15. [Except for vehicles equipped with the Free-hand Advanced Security Transmit- ter (F.A.S.T.-key).]  Do not operate the starter motor continu- ously for longer than 15 seconds as this could run the battery down or damage the starter motor. If the engine does not start, turn the ignition switch back to the “OFF” or “LOCK” position, wait a few seconds,and then try again. 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 8-2)for instructions.  A longer warm up period will only con- sume extra fuel. The engine is warmed upenough for driving when the bar graph of engine coolant temperature display starts to move. Refer to “Engine coolant tem-perature display” on page 5-163.
