Starting
N00514600233
Tips for starting
Do not operate the starter motor for longer than 15 sec-
onds 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 “LOCK” position, wait a few seconds,
and then try again. Trying repeatedly with the engine or
starter motor still turning will damage the starter mecha-
nism.

If the engine will not start because the battery is weak or
discharged, refer to “Jump-starting the engine” on page 6-
2 for instructions.

A longer warm up period will only consume extra fuel.
The engine is warmed up enough for driving when the bar
graph of the engine coolant temperature display starts to
move. Refer to “Interrupt display screen (With ignition
switch in the “ON” position)” on page 3-168.

On vehicles equipped with the Twin Clutch SST, the fol-
lowing may occur after the engine is started, but they do
not indicate an abnormality.
• You may hear operational sounds of the Twin Clutch
SST and you may feel vibration in the vehicle body.
• If you shift the gearshift lever into the “N” (NEUTRAL)
position and depress the accelerator pedal, increases in
the engine speed will be limited.
CAUTION
!
Carry the key with you when leaving the vehicle.
If your vehicle needs to be towed, turn the ignition
switch to the “ACC” position to unlock the steering
wheel.

Starting the engineYour vehicle is equipped with an electronically controlled fuel
injection system. This is a system that automatically controls
fuel injection. There is no need to depress the accelerator pedal
when starting the engine.
The starter motor should not be run for more than 15 seconds at
a time.
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. Press and hold the brake pedal down with your right foot.
3. Press and hold the clutch pedal all the way down (manual
transaxle).NOTE
For models equipped with a manual transaxle, the starter
will not operate unless the clutch pedal is fully depressed
(Clutch interlock). This is a safety feature.
4. On vehicles with manual transaxle, place the gearshift
lever in the “N” (Neutral) position.
On vehicles with Twin Clutch SST, make sure the gear-
shift lever is in the “P” (PARK) position.NOTE
On vehicles with Twin Clutch SST, the starter will not
operate unless the gearshift lever is in the “P” (PARK)
position or the gearshift lever is in the “N” (NEUTRAL)
position with the brake pedal depressed.
For safety reasons, start the engine in the “P” (PARK)
position so that the wheels are locked.
WA R N I N G
!
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.
Release the ignition switch as soon as the engine
starts. Otherwise, the starter motor will be dam-
aged.

5. While pushing the ignition switch from “LOCK” (PUSH
OFF) to “LOCK” (PUSH ON), set the ignition switch to
the “ON” position and confirm that all warning lights and
warning displays are operating properly.
6. Without pressing the accelerator pedal, slowly turn the
ignition switch to the “START” position to start the
engine. Release the ignition switch when the engine starts.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 con-
ditioning blower and rear window defogger, are turned
off.
2. While depressing the brake pedal on vehicles equipped
with Twin Clutch SST or the clutch pedal on the vehicles
equipped with manual transaxle, 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 on vehicles equipped with Twin Clutch SST
or the clutch pedal on the vehicles equipped with manual
transaxle, push the accelerator pedal all the way down and
hold it there, then crank the engine for 5 to 6 seconds.
Return the ignition switch to the “LOCK” position and
release the accelerator pedal. Wait a few seconds, and then
crank the engine again for 5 to 6 seconds while depressing
the brake pedal or the clutch pedal, but do not push the
accelerator pedal. Release the ignition key if the engine
starts. 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 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.
