Startability of Twin Clutch SST vehicle with an ambient
temperature of -22 °F (-30 °C) or lower
When the ambient temperature is -22 °F (-30 °C) or lower, it
may not be possible to start from a standstill even with the
gearshift lever in the “D” (DRIVE) position.
This phenomenon occurs because the transmission has not
warmed up sufficiently; it does not indicate a problem. If it
occurs, place the gearshift lever in the “P” (PARK) position
and let the engine idle for at least 10 minutes.
The transmission will warm up, and you will be able to start
normally.
Do not leave the vehicle during warm-up operation.
Electronic immobilizer (Anti-theft starting sys-
tem)
N00529600055
The electronic immobilizer is designed to significantly reduce
the possibility of vehicle 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 F.A.S.T.-Key “registered” to the immobilizer
system.
All of the keys provided with your new vehicle have been pro-
grammed to the vehicle’s electronics.Replacement F.A.S.T.-keys
N00561000055
Only the F.A.S.T.-keys that have been programmed to the vehi-
cle’s electronics can be used to start the vehicle.
If you lose the F.A.S.T.-key, you can order a F.A.S.T.-key from
an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer by referring to the key
number.
To prevent vehicle theft, the ID codes for all the F.A.S.T.-keys
except the one for the lost F.A.S.T.-key must be programmed
again.
Take your vehicle and all the remaining F.A.S.T.-keys to your
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer to have your ID codes
programmed again.
