GENERAL INFORMATION
Used engine oils safety
instructions
EB12A-A
WARNING(1) Prolonged and repeated contact
may cause serious skin disor-
ders, including dermatitis and
cancer.
(2) Avoid contact with the skin as
far as possible and wash thor-
oughly after any contact.
(3) Keep out of reach of children.
Protect the environment
It is illegal to pollute drains, water courses

facilities, including civic amenity sites and
garages providing facilities for disposal of
used oil and used oil filters. If in doubt,
contact your local authority for advice on
disposal.
Driving and alcoholEB25A-Aa
Driving under the influence of alcohol is
one of the most frequent causes of acci-
dents.
Your driving ability can even be seriously
impaired with blood alcohol levels below
the legal minimum. If you are drinking,
don’t drive. Ride with a designated non-
drinking driver, call a cab, a friend, or use
public transportation.
WARNINGDriving after drinking can lead to an
accident. Your perceptions are less
sharp, your reflexes are slower, and
your judgement is impaired when
you have been drinking.
NEVER DRINK AND THEN DRIVE.
Safe driving techniques
EB26A-Cb
Driving safety and protection against in-
jury cannot be fully ensured. However, we
recommend that you pay extra attention to
the following:
(1) Before starting the vehicle, make sure
that you and your passengers have
fastened your seat belts.
(2) Never leave your vehicle unattended
with the key in the ignition and
children inside the vehicle. Children
may play with the driving controls and
this could lead to an accident.
(3) Make sure that infants and small chil-
dren are properly restrained in accor-
dance with the laws and regulations,
and for maximum protection in case
of an accident.

Without an electronic immobilizer
(Type 1)
1 - Master key
2 - Sub key*
With an electronic immobilizer
(Type 2)
3 - Master key (Black)
4 - Sub key (Grey)*
Two master keys are provided. They fit all
locks. Keep one in a safe place as a spare
key.
One sub key is provided (for some mo-
dels). It fits all locks except for the glove
box.NOTE
(1) The key number is stamped on the
tag as indicated in the illustration.
Make a record of the key number and
store the key and key number tag
in separate places, so that you can
order a key from your authorized
MITSUBISHI dealer in the event the
original keys are lost.
(2) If your vehicle is equipped with an
electronic immobilizer, the engine is
designed so that it will not start if the
ID code registered in the immobilizer
computer and the key’s ID code do
not match. Refer to the section en-
titled “Electronic Immobilizer” for
details and key usage.
(3) Keys should never be placed in areas
which contain magnetic or metal ob-
jects as this may interfere with the
transponder.
Electronic immobilizer
(Anti-theft starting system)*
EF11CPD
The electronic immobilizer is designed to
reduce significantly the possibility of vehi-
cle 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 (subject to certain condi-
tions), using a key “registered” to the im-
mobilizer system.

LOCKING AND UNLOCKING
(3) If you lose your keys, order a key from
your authorized MITSUBISHI dealer
as soon as possible.
To obtain a key, take your vehicle and
any remaining key to your authorized
MITSUBISHI dealer.
If you need an extra spare key, take
your vehicle and ALL the keys to your
authorized MITSUBISHI dealer.
All the keys have to be re-registered
in the immobilizer computer unit.
The immobilizer allows up to 8 differ-
ent ID codes to be registered; you can
possess a maximum of 8 keys.
CAUTIONDo not make any alterations or addi-
tions to the immobilizer system, al-
terations or additions could cause
failure of the immobilizer.
NOTE
(1) In the following cases the vehicle may
not be able to receive the registered
ID code from the key. This means the
engine will not start even when the
registered key is turned to the
“START” position:
• When the key contacts a key ring or
other metallic or magnetic object
(Type A)
• When the key grip contacts metal of
another key (Type B)
• When the key contacts another im-
mobilizing key, or some other
transponder (Type C)
In cases like these, remove the above
object from the key and turn the key
back to the “ACC” or “LOCK” position.
Then try again to start the engine.
If the engine does not start, consult an
authorized MITSUBISHI dealer.
(2)
Be careful not to damage the key with a
cutter etc. since there is a transponder
inside the key
.
