The F.A.S.T.-key can also be used as the remote control transmitter of the keylessentry system. Refer to “Free-hand Advanced Security Transmitter (F.A.S.T.-
key): Keyless entry
system” on page 5-21.
CAUTION When the remote control transmitter case is opened, be careful to keep water, dust, etc. out. Also, do not touch the internal compo-nents.NOTE

driver. The F.A.S.T.-key is required for vehicle operations su
ch as locking and
unlocking the doors and the liftgate, starting the engine, and changing the operation mode. When
leaving the vehi-
cle, make sure you are carrying the F.A.S.T.-key and then lock the vehicle.
WA R N I N G Individuals who use
implantable pace-
makers or implanta
ble cardiovascular-

The operations possible with the F.A.S.T.- key can be modified as stated below. (Keyless entry operations are possible.) For details, contact an authorizedMitsubishi Motors dealer. • Enabling only the locking and unlocking of the doors and the liftgate• Enabling only the starting of the engine • Deactivating the F.A.S.T.-key

When a person enters the operating range of the F.A.S.T.-key while carrying the F.A.S.T.-key and presses the driver’s door lock/unlock switch the liftgate switch, verification of the ID code is performed.The doors and the liftgate can only be locked and unlocked, the engine
can only be started
and the operation mode can only be changed when the ID codes of the vehicle and F. A . S . T. - k e y m a t c h .
WA R N I N G Individuals using ot
her electro-medical
apparatus besides implantable pacemak-ers and implantable
cardiovascular-defi-
brillators should check with the manufacturer of the apparatus to confirm the effect of the electromagnetic wavesused by the F.A.S.T.-key. The electromag- netic waves may affect
the operations of
the electro-medical apparatus.NOTE
 The F.A.S.T.-key uses weak electromagnetic waves.In cases such as the following, operationmay be improper or unstable. • The vehicle is near a facility that emits strong electromagnetic
waves, such as a TV
transmitting tower, a pow
er station, a radio
station or an airport
• The key is carried together with other com-munication devices such
as cellular phones
or radios, or electrical appliances such ascomputers • The F.A.S.T.-key touches or is covered by a metal object • A keyless entry system is being used nearby • The battery of the F.A.S.T.-key is run down• The vehicle is in a location with strong electromagnetic
waves or noise
Use the emergency key in such circum- stances.Refer to “To operate without using the F.A.S.T.-key” on page 5-19.  The F.A.S.T.-key is constantly performing reception operations
in its communication
with the vehicle. This means that the batteryis always running down, regardless of how often the F.A.S.T.-key is used. The battery life is about 1 to 2 years, depending on theusage conditions.  Since the F.A.S.T.-key is constantly perform- ing reception operati
ons, the reception of
strong electromagnetic
waves can accelerate
the running down of the ba
ttery. Do not place
near to electrical appliances such as televi- sions or computers.NOTE

NOTE
 When the battery of the F.A.S.T.-key has run down or there are st
rong electromagnetic
waves or noise in the area, the operating range could decrease
or operations could
become unstable.

 The 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. Pressing the engine switch again while the starter motor is still turning will stop the starter motor. The starter motor will be turningfor up to approximate
ly 30 seconds while
the engine switch is pressed. If the engine does not start, wait for awhile and then attempt to start the engine again. Trying repeatedly with the starter motor still turning will damage the startermechanism.  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.  A longer warm up period will only con- sume extra fuel. The engine is warmed up enough for driv- ing when the low coolant temperatureindicator goes out. Refer to “Low coolant temperature indi- cator” on page 5-71.
Your vehicle is equipped with an electroni- cally controlled fuel injection system. This is a system that automatically controls fuelinjection. There is usually no need to depress the accelerator 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. 3. Press and hold the brake pedal down firmly with your right foot.

Tips for starting

WA R N I N G Never run the engine in
a closed or poorly
ventilated area any longer than is neededto move your vehicle
out of the area. Car-
bon monoxide gas, wh
ich 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.

The electronic immobilizer is designed to sig- nificantly reduce the
possibility of vehicle
theft. The purpose of the system is to immo-bilize the vehicle if an invalid start is attempted. A valid start attempt can only be achieved (subject to certain conditions) usinga F.A.S.T.-Key “registered” to the immobi- lizer system. All of the keys provided with your new vehi-cle have been program
med to the vehicle’s
electronics.
 Remove the object or ad
ditional key from the
F.A.S.T.-key before inserting the key into thekey slot. The vehicle
may not be able to
receive the registered ID code from the regis- tered key. Therefore, the engine may not start and the operation mode may not change.

Door locks
WA R N I N G Make sure all doors are tightly closed and locked while driving.• Locked doors, in co
mbination with the
use of seat belts, can help reduce the riskof ejection in an accident.• Locked doors can help keep passengers,especially small children, from opening doors and falling out
of moving vehicles.
• Locked doors can help prevent outsiders from gaining access
to your vehicle when
you slow or come to a stop.
 Lock your vehicle when
ever you leave it.
Children who get into
unlocked vehicles
may not be able to get out. Childrentrapped inside vehicles can quickly be overcome by heat
and suffer serious
injury or death due to heat stroke. Never leave a ch
ild alone in the vehicle. In
addition to the risk
of heat stroke, chil-
dren can activate switches and controls, resulting in an injury
or fatal accident.
When closing a door,
make sure that the
door is fully closed and the door-ajar warning display goes
out on the informa-
tion screen on the multi-information dis- play. If the door is aj
ar it could open while
driving and cause an accident.
