Customer key programming (Except for vehicles
sold in Canada)
N00562200067
You can program new keys to the system if you have two valid
(already registered) keys and blank (not registered) immobi-
lizer key (specially cut for your vehicle at your Mitsubishi
Motors dealer) by doing the following:
1. Insert the first valid key into the ignition switch and turn
the key to the “ON” position for 5 seconds.
2. Turn the key to the “LOCK” position and remove the first
key.
3. Within 30 seconds of turning the first key to the “LOCK”
position, insert the second valid key into the ignition and
turn it to the “ON” position. About 10 seconds later, the
immobilizer display will start to blink.
4. When the immobilizer display starts blinking, turn the
second valid key to the “LOCK” position and remove it.
Within 30 seconds after doing so, insert a blank immobi-
lizer key into the ignition switch and turn it to the “ON”
position. Perform this operation no more than 30 seconds
after the immobilizer display starts blinking. When regis-
tration of the ID code is complete, the immobilizer display
will come on for 3 seconds then go off. If an error occurs,
the immobilizer display will go off during the procedure.
5. If you wish to register another key, perform the process
again from step 1.
NOTE
Perform the operation when the interrupt display screen is
not showing. The interrupt display screen may prevent
you from seeing the immobilizer display.

It is not possible to register a key if:
• the immobilizer display goes off during the procedure
• the immobilizer display does not come on within 30 sec-
onds after turning the ignition switch to the “ON” posi-
tion with a blank immobilizer key

The procedure will be terminated automatically if:
• a period of 30 seconds or longer elapses from the
moment when the first key is turned to the “LOCK”
position to the moment when the second key is turned to
the “ON” position
• a period of 30 seconds or longer elapses from the
moment when the second key is turned to the “LOCK”
position to the moment when the blank immobilizer key
is turned to the “ON” position

To use the new remote control transmitters, it is necessary
to register the key with both the electronic immobilizer
and keyless entry system.
Also refer to “Keyless entry system: Customer remote
control transmitter programming” on page 3-12.

graph of engine coolant temperature display starts to
move. A longer warm up period will only consume extra
fuel.

[For vehicles equipped with the turbocharger]
The engine is warmed up enough for driving when the bar
graph of engine coolant temperature display starts to
move. Driving before the bar graph moves may cause
deterioration of turbocharger performance and driveabil-
ity. A longer warm up period will only consume extra
fuel.
