Features and controls

Free-hand Advanced Security Transmitter (F.A.S.T.-key) (if so equipped)

• The Free-hand Advanced Security Transmitter (F.A.S.T.-key) enables the doors and the liftgate to be locked and unlocked, the engine to be started and the operation mode to be changed simply by carrying it.
• The F.A.S.T.-key can also be used as the remote control transmitter of the keyless entry system.
• Refer to “Free-hand Advanced Security Transmitter (F.A.S.T.-key): Keyless entry system” on .
• The F.A.S.T.-key must be carried by the driver. The F.A.S.T.-key is required for vehicle operations such as locking and unlocking the doors and the liftgate, starting the engine, and changing the operation mode. When leaving the vehicle, make sure you are carrying the F.A.S.T.-key and then lock the vehicle.

WARNING
Individuals who use implantable pace-makers or implantable cardiovascular-defibrillators should keep away from the external and internal transmitters. The electromagnetic waves used in the F.A.S.T.-key may affect the operation of implantable pacemakers and implantable cardiovascular-defibrillators.

• A- External transmitter
• B- Internal transmitter

WARNING
Individuals using other electro-medical apparatus besides implantable pacemakers and implantable cardiovascular-defibrillators should check with the manufacturer of the apparatus to confirm the effect of the electromagnetic waves used by the F.A.S.T.-key. The electromagnetic waves may affect the operations of the electro-medical apparatus.

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 authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.

• Enabling only the locking and unlocking of the doors and the liftgate

Starting and stopping the engine

Tips for starting

• The operation mode can 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 starter motor. The starter motor will be turning for up to approximately 30 seconds while the engine switch is pressed. If the engine does not start, wait for a while and then attempt to start the engine again. Trying repeatedly with the starter motor still turning will damage the starter mechanism.
• If the engine will not start because the battery is weak or discharged, refer to “Jump-starting the engine” on  for instructions.
• A longer warm up period will only consume extra fuel.
• The engine is warmed up enough for driving when the low coolant temperature indicator goes out.
• Refer to “Low coolant temperature indicator” on.

WARNING
Never run the engine in a closed or poorly ventilated area any longer than is needed to move your vehicle out of the area. Carbon monoxide gas, which 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.

Starting the engine

• Your vehicle is equipped with an electronically controlled fuel injection system. This is a system that automatically controls fuel injection. There is usually no need to depress the accelerator pedal 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 down firmly with your right foot.
   NOTE
   After the engine has not started for a while, the brake pedal effort needed to start the engine may become greater. If this occurs, depress the brake pedal more firmly than usual.
4. Make sure the selector lever is in the “P” (PARK) position.
   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 wheels lock.
5. Press the engine switch.
6. Confirm that all warning lights and warning displays are functioning properly.

NOTE
Minor noises may be heard on engine start-up. These will disappear as the engine warms up.

When the engine is hard to start
After several attempts, you may experience that the engine still does not start.

1. Make sure that all electric devices, such as lights, air conditioning blower and rear window defogger, are turned off.
2. While depressing the brake pedal, press the accelerator pedal halfway and hold it there, then crank the 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, push the accelerator pedal all the way down and hold it there, then press the engine switch 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 the 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 not push 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 choice for assistance.

• Startability of continuously variable trans-mission (CVT) vehicles with an ambient temperature of -4 °F (-20 °C) or lower When the ambient temperature is -4 °F (-20 °C) or lower, it may not be possible to start from a standstill even with the selector lever in the “D” (DRIVE) or “R” (REVERSE) position.
• This phenomenon occurs because the trans-axle has not warmed up sufficiently; it does not 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 warm up, and you will be able to start normally.
• Do not leave the vehicle during warm-up operation.
