Keyless entry system*
3-07OGAE15E5Locking and unlocking3

NOTElThe 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.
• 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 operate without using the
keyless operation function” on page 3-21.NOTEl 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 3
years, depending on usage conditions. When the battery wears out, please consult aMITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.
If you replace the battery yourself, refer to “Procedure for replacing the remote control
switch battery” on page 3-24.
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
operation system
E00305700367
If you are carrying the keyless operation key, enter the operating range of the keyless oper-
ation system, and press the driver’s or front
passenger’s door lock/unlock switch, the tail-
gate LOCK switch or the tailgate OPEN switch, the ID code for your key is verified.
You can only lock and unlock the doors and
tailgate, start the engine and change the oper-ation mode if the ID codes of your keyless operation key and the vehicle match.NOTEl If the keyless operation key battery is wear-
ing out or there are strong electromagnetic
waves or noise present, the operating range
may become smaller and operation may be-
come unstable.

clutch pedal ( M/T), you can change the oper-
ation mode in the order of OFF, ACC, ON, OFF.

eration mode in OFF. Leaving the operation mode in ON or ACC for a long time when
the engine is not running may cause the bat- tery to be discharged, making it impossible
to start the engine, lock and unlock the steer- ing wheel.

rent operation mode is memorized. After re- connecting the battery, the memorized modeis selected automatically. Before disconnect-
ing the battery for repair or replacement,

is run down.
l The operation mode cannot be changed from
OFF to ACC or ON if the keyless operation
key is not detected to be in the vehicle. Refer
to “Keyless operation system: Operating
range for starting the engine and changing the operation mode” on page 3-10.ACC power auto-cutout func-
