Your vehicle is equipped with an electroni- cally controlled fuel injection system. This isa 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 secondsbetween attempts to restart the engine.
1. Make sure all occupants are properly seated with seat belts fastened. 2. Make sure the parking brake is applied. 3. Press and hold the brake pedal down withyour right foot. 4. Press and hold the clutch pedal all the way down (manual transaxle).
5. On vehicles equipped with manual trans- axle, place the gearshift lever in the “N” (Neutral) position. On vehicles equipped with continuouslyvariable transmission (CVT) or Twin Clutch SST, make sure the selector lever (CVT) or the gearshift lever (Twin ClutchSST) is in the “P” (PARK) position. 6. 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 warn-ing lights and warning displays are oper- ating properly.
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. Car- bon monoxide gas, which is odorless and extremely poisonous, could build up andcause 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 motorwill be damaged.
Starting the engine

NOTE
 For models equipped with a manual trans- axle, the starter will not operate unless theclutch pedal is fully depressed (Clutch inter- lock). This is a safety feature.
NOTE
 On vehicles equipped with CVT, the starter will not operate unless the selector lever is inthe “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL) posi- tion. On vehicles equipped with Twin Clutch SST,the starter will not operate unless the gear- shift 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 arelocked.

7. Without pressing the accelerator pedal, slowly turn the ignition switch to the “START” position to start the engine. Release the ignition switch when theengine starts.
After several attempts, you may experience that the engine still does not start. 1. Make sure that all electric devices, such as lights, air conditioning blower and rear window defogger, are turned off.2. While depressing the brake pedal on vehi- cles equipped with continuously variable transmission (CVT) or the clutch pedal onthe vehicles equipped with manual trans- axle, press the accelerator pedal halfway and hold it there, then crank the engine.Release the accelerator pedal, immedi- ately 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 vehi- cles equipped with CVT or the clutchpedal on the vehicles
equipped with man-
ual transaxle, push the accelerator pedal all the way down and hold it there, thencrank 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 theengine again for 5 to 6 seconds while depressing the brake pedal or the clutch pedal, but do not push the acceleratorpedal. Release the ignition key if the engine starts. If the engine fails to start, repeat these procedures. If the engine stillwill not start, contact your local Mitsubi- shi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice for assistance.
When the ambient temperature is -4 °F (-20 °C) or lower on vehicles equipped with CVT, or -22 °F (-30 °C) or lower on vehicles equipped with Twin Clutch SST, it may notbe possible to start fr
om a standstill even with
the selector lever (CVT) or the gearshift lever
(Twin Clutch SST) in the “D” (DRIVE) posi- tion. This phenomenon occurs because the trans- axle has not warmed up sufficiently; it doesnot indicate a problem. If this occurs, place the selector lever (CVT) or the gearshift lever (Twin Clutch SST) in the “P” (PARK) posi-tion and let the engine idle for at least 10 min- utes. The transaxle will warm up, and you will beable to drive normally.Do not leave the vehicle during warm-up operation.

The emergency key is built into the F.A.S.T.- key.When the F.A.S.T.-key cannot be used, such as when the battery of the F.A.S.T.-key or the vehicle has run down, the emergency key canbe used to lock and unlock the driver’s door and to start the engine. To use the emergency key (1), unlock the lock knob (2) and remove it from the F.A.S.T.-key(3).
NOTE
 Minor noises may be heard on engine start- up. These will disappear as the engine warms up.

2. Install the cover of the ignition switch. 3. Reinsert the emergency key into theF. A . S . T. - k e y.
Steering wheel lock Turn the emergency key to the “LOCK” posi- tion. Turn the steering wheel until it is locked. Turn the emergency key to the “ACC” posi- tion while moving the steering wheel slightly.
Tips for starting  Do not operate the starter motor continu- ously for longer than 15 seconds as this could run the battery down or damage the starter motor. If the engine does not start,turn the emergency key back to the “LOCK” position, wait a few seconds, and then try again. Trying repeatedly withthe engine or starter motor still turning will damage the starter mechanism.  If the engine will not start because the bat- tery is weak or discharged, refer to “Jump-starting the engine” on page 8-2 for instructions.
NOTE
 For vehicles equipped with CVT or Twin Clutch SST, the emergency key cannot be removed unless the selector lever (CVT) or the gearshift lever (Twin Clutch SST) is set to the “P” (PARK) position.NOTE
 Always install the cover of the ignition switch when not using the emergency key. Not doing so could cause damage if foreignmaterial such as dust
gets into the keyhole of
the ignition switch.CAUTION Do not turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” position while the vehicle is mov- ing. This will cause the steering wheel to lock, making it impossible to operate the vehicle.  If the engine is stopped while driving, the power brake booster will stop functioning and greater effort for braking will berequired. Also, the power steering system will not function and it will require greater effort to manually steer the vehicle.
 Do not leave the ignition switch in the “ON” or “ACC” position for a long time when the engine is not running. The battery will run down. Do not turn the ignition switch to the “START” position when the engine is run- ning. It will damage the starter motor.

The electronic immobilizer is designed to sig-nificantly reduce the possibility of vehicletheft. The purpose of the system is to immo- bilize the vehicle if an invalid start is attempted. A valid start attempt can only beachieved (subject to certain conditions) using a F.A.S.T.-key “registered” to the immobi- lizer system.All of the keys provided with your new vehi- cle have been programmed to the vehicle’s electronics. Only the F.A.S.T.-keys that have been pro- grammed to the vehicle’s electronics can beused to start the vehicle. If you lose the F.A.S.T.-key, you can order a F.A.S.T.-key from your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer by referring to the key number.
