Operation mode OFF reminder system
N00560100150
When the operation mode is in any mode other than OFF, all
the doors and the liftgate are closed, and someone tries to lock
the vehicle by pressing the driver’s door switch or the liftgate
switch, the warning light blinks and the buzzer sounds for
about 3 seconds as a warning, and the doors and the liftgate
cannot be locked.Starting and stopping the engine
N00514600288
Tips for startingThe operation mode can be in any mode to start the
engine.
The starter motor will be turning for up to approximately
15 seconds if the engine switch is released at once. Press-
ing the engine switch again while the starter motor is still
turning will stop the starter motor. The starter motor will
be turning for up to approximately 30 seconds while the
engine switch is pressed.
If the engine does not start, wait for a while and then
attempt to start the engine again. Trying repeatedly with
the starter motor still turning will damage the starter
mechanism.
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 low
coolant temperature indicator goes out.
Refer to “Low coolant temperature indicator” on page 3-
110.
Starting the engineYour vehicle is equipped with an electronically controlled fuel
injection system. This is a system that automatically controls
fuel injection. There is usually no need to depress the accelera-
tor pedal when starting the engine.
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. Make sure the parking brake is applied.
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.

Startability of continuously variable transmission (CVT)
vehicles 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
selector lever in the “D” (DRIVE) position.
This phenomenon occurs because the transaxle has not warmed
up sufficiently; it does not indicate a problem. If this occurs,
place the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) position and let the
engine idle for at least 10 minutes.
The transaxle will warm up, and you will be able to start nor-
mally.
Do not leave the vehicle during warm-up operation.Stopping the engine
N00568200014
NOTEIf you have to bring the engine to an emergency stop
while driving, press and hold the engine switch for 3 sec-
onds or more, or press it quickly 3 times or more. The
engine will stop and the operation mode will go to ACC.On vehicles equipped with continuously variable trans-
mission (CVT), do not stop the engine with the selector
lever in any position other than the “P” (PARK) position.
If the engine is stopped with the selector lever in any posi-
tion other than the “P” (PARK) position, the operation
mode will go to ACC rather than OFF.
Put the operation mode in OFF after placing the selector
lever in the “P” (PARK) position.
1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Fully engage the parking brake while depressing the brake
pedal.
3. On vehicles with a manual transaxle, press the engine
switch to stop the engine, and then move the gearshift
lever to the 1st (on a uphill) or “R” (Reverse) (on a down-
hill) position.
On vehicles equipped with continuously variable trans-
mission (CVT), move the selector lever to the “P”
(PARK) position, and then press the engine switch to stop
the engine.
If the F.A.S.T.-key is not operating properly
N00568300031
Insert the F.A.S.T.-key into the key slot of the floor console.
Starting the engine and changing the operation mode should be
now possible.
Remove the F.A.S.T.-key from the key slot after starting the
engine or changing the operation mode.
WA R N I N G
!Do not operate the engine switch while driving
except in an emergency. If the engine is stopped
while driving, the brake servomechanism will cease
to function and braking efficiency will deteriorate.
Also, the power steering system will not function
and it will require greater manual effort to operate
the steering. This could result in a serious accident.

N00511500231
To adjust the steering wheel to the desired position, move the
lever upward or downward while moving the steering wheel to
the desired level.
CAUTION
!Before driving, be sure that the parking brake is
fully released and brake warning light is off.
If you drive without the parking brake fully
released, the warning lamp will illuminate and a
buzzer sounds when the vehicle speed exceeds 5 mph
(8 km/h).
If a vehicle is driven without releasing the parking
brake, the brakes will be overheated, resulting in
ineffective braking and possible brake failure.

Passing accelerationTo gain extra acceleration in “D” (DRIVE) position (when
passing another vehicle) push the accelerator to the floor. The
CVT will automatically downshift.WaitingFor short waiting periods, such as at traffic lights, the vehicle
can be left in selector lever position and held stationary with
the service brake.
For longer waiting periods with the engine running, place the
selector lever in the “N” (NEUTRAL) position and apply the
parking brake, while holding the vehicle stationary with the
service brake.
Prior to moving off after having stopped the vehicle, make sure
that the selector lever is in “D” (DRIVE) position.
ParkingTo park the vehicle, first bring it to a complete stop, fully
engage the parking brake, and then move the selector lever to
the “P” (PARK) position.When the CVT makes no speed changeIf the CVT does not shift while driving, or your vehicle does
not pick up enough speed when starting on an uphill slope, it
may be that there is something unusual happening in the trans-
mission, causing a safety device to activate. Have your vehicle
checked at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair
facility of your choice as soon as possible.
Do not rev the engine with the brake pedal pressed
when the vehicle is stationary.
This can damage the CVT.
Also, when you depress the accelerator pedal while
holding down the brake pedal with the selector lever
in the “D” (DRIVE) position, the engine revolutions
may not rise as high as when performing the same
operation with the selector lever in the “N” (NEU-
TRAL) position.
CAUTION
!
CAUTION
!To avoid transmission overheating, never try to keep
your vehicle stationary on a hill by using the acceler-
ator pedal. Always apply the parking brake and/or
service brake.Do not rev the engine unnecessarily while the vehicle
is stationary. Unexpected acceleration may occur if
the selector lever is in a position other than “P”
(PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL).
