N00510200156
The theft-alarm system is designed to provide protection from
unauthorized entry into the vehicle. This system is operated in
three stages: the first is the “armed” stage, the second is the
“alarm” stage, and third is the “disarmed” stage. If triggered,
the system provides both audible and visual alarm signals.
Armed stagePark the vehicle and stop the engine. Arm the system as
described below.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” position.
Also, if a key was used to start the engine, remove the key
from the ignition switch.
2. Make sure that the engine hood is locked.
3. Lock all doors and the tailgate by the remote control trans-
mitter, using either the F.A.S.T.-key.NOTE
If a door is open, after locking with the remote control
transmitter, close the door.
CAUTION
!
Do not modify or add parts to the theft-alarm sys-
tem. Doing so could cause the theft-alarm to mal-
function.

At this time, the theft-alarm indicator (A) on the audio
panel flashes for confirmation. [The buzzer sounds inter-
mittently at the same time the theft-alarm indicator (A)
flashes. (if so equipped)]
4. The system has entered the armed stage after about 20
seconds, when the theft-alarm indicator (A) flashing
becomes slower. (The buzzer stops at this time.)
The theft-alarm indicator (A) continues to flash while the
system is in the armed stage.
NOTE
If the engine hood is open, the theft-alarm indicator (A)
illuminates and the system cannot enter the armed stage.
The system enters the armed stage about 20 seconds after
the engine hood is closed.
The system will be disarmed if, while the theft-alarm indi-
cator (A) is illuminated, all doors and the tailgate are
unlocked by remote control transmitter, the F.A.S.T.-key.
The system will be disarmed if, while the theft-alarm indi-
cator is illuminated, the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” or “ACC”.
The system will not be armed if a door is not completely
closed. If this happens, rearm the system as described
above.
The security alarm system can be activated when people
are riding inside the vehicle or when the windows are
open. To prevent accidental activation of the alarm, do not
set the system to the system armed mode while people are
riding in the vehicle.

moving. The engine can be started from the “P” (PARK) posi-
tion.“R” REVERSEMove the lever to this position only after the vehicle has come
to a complete stop.“N” NEUTRALAt this position, the transaxle is disengaged. It is the same as
the neutral position on a manual transaxle and should be used
when the vehicle is not moving for an extended length of time
during driving, such as in a traffic jam.
CAUTION
!
If a malfunction occurs in the automatic transaxle
while driving, the warning display or the
warning display will appear on the information
screen in the multi-information display.
In this case, immediately park your vehicle in a safe
place and follow these procedures:
When warning display is showing
The automatic transaxle fluid is overheating. Stop
your vehicle in a safe place, put the selector lever in
the “P” position, and open the engine hood with the
engine running to allow the engine to cool down.
After a while, confirm that the warning display is
no longer showing. It is safe to continue driving if
the display is no longer showing. If the warning dis-
play remains or flashes frequently, have your vehicle
inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer or a repair facility of your choice.
When warning display is showing
It may be that there is something unusual happening
in the automatic transaxle, causing a safety device to
activate. Have your vehicle inspected by an autho-
rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of
your choice as soon as possible.

5. If you do not see steam or spray coming from under the
hood, leave the engine on until the bar graph for the
engine coolant temperature warning display on the multi-
information display goes down. When it is in the middle
of the normal zone, you can start driving again. If the bar
graph stays in the red zone, turn off the engine.
6. When you do not see any more steam or spray, open the
hood. Look for obvious leaks, such as a split radiator
hose. Be careful as components will be hot. Any leak
source must be repaired.
7. If there is no obvious leak source, check the coolant level
in the engine coolant reserve tank. If there is none, or if it
is too low, slowly add coolant.8. If the engine coolant reserve tank needs coolant, you will
probably also need to add coolant to the radiator. Do not
loosen or remove the radiator cap until the engine has
cooled down.
9. Start the engine, and slowly add coolant, up to the bottom
of the filler neck. Use plain water if you have to (and
replace it with the right coolant as soon as possible).
10. Replace the radiator cap and tighten it fully. Check the
engine coolant temperature display on the multi-informa-
tion display. You can start driving again when the bar
graph for the engine coolant temperature display returns
to the normal zone.
11. Have the system inspected by your authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.
WA R N I N G
!
Before raising the engine hood, check to see if there
is steam or spray coming from under the hood.
Steam or spray coming from an overheated engine
could seriously scald you.
Do not open the hood until there is no steam or
spray.
WA R N I N G
!
Removing the radiator cap could scald you with
escaping hot water or steam. When checking the
radiator level, cover the cap with a cloth before try-
ing to remove it. Turn it slowly counterclockwise,
without pressing down, to the first notch. The pres-
sure in the system will then be let out. When the
pressure is COMPLETELY LET OUT, press down
and keep turning the cap counterclockwise until it
comes off.

Support the engine hood with the hood prop. Insert the hood
prop securely in the opening under the hood marked with an
arrow.
To closeUnlatch the prop from the engine hood and put it back in its
retainer.
Slowly lower the engine hood about 12 inches (30 cm), then let
it drop from its own weight.NOTE
If this does not close the engine hood properly, drop it
again from a slightly higher position.
Do not push down strongly on the engine hood. Depend-
ing on how strongly or where you push down, you could
create a dent in the vehicle body.
CAUTION
!
Always insert the support prop into the hole spe-
cially made for it. Propping the engine hood at any
other place could cause the prop to slip out and lead
to an accident.
The hood prop can fall out if the hood is lifted by a
strong wind.
