Only keys that have been programmed to the vehicle’s electronics can be used to start the vehicle. If you lose the key, you can order a key from your authorized Mitsubi
shi Motors dealer by
referring to the key number. To prevent vehicle theft, the ID code for thevehicle keys must be changed.
Take your vehicle and
all remaining keys to
your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer tohave your ID code changed. To add a key, you must already have 2 regis- tered keys. You need to register the ID code to the vehicle. Registering the ID code can be done by your- self (except for vehicles
sold in Canada), or
by your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.For you to register the ID code yourself, fol- low the “Customer key programming” proce- dure below.If you choose to have
your authorized Mit-
subishi Motors dealer register the ID code, take your vehicle and
all remaini
ng keys to
your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.

bove, move the offending
object(s) away from the key and turn the keyback to the “ACC” or “LOCK” position. Then try to start the engine again. If the engine does not start,
contact an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer.  The key may not operate
properly when it is
near an object or faci
lity that emits strong
electromagne
tic waves.
NOTE
Electronic immobilize
r is not compatible
with commercially available remote startingsystems. Use of commercially availableremote starting systems may result in vehicle starting problems
and a loss of security pro-
tection.  A system failure is suspected when the igni- tion switch is turned to the “START” posi-tion, and the engine does
not start. In such a
case, contact an au
thorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer.CAUTION Do not make any altera
tions or additions to
the immobilizer system.
Alterations or addi-
tions could cause failure
of the immobilizer.

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 entrysystem” on page 5-29.
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
authorized Mitsubi-
shi 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
The F.A.S.T.-key must be carried by the 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-
defibrillators
should keep away from the
external and internal
transmitters. The
electromagnetic w
aves used in the
F.A.S.T.-key may affect the operation ofimplantable pacemakers and implantable cardiovascular-defibrillators.
A- External transmitter B- Internal transmitterWA R N I N G Individuals using ot
her electro-medical
apparatus besides implantable pacemak- ers and implantable
cardiovascular-defi-
brillators should check with themanufacturer of the apparatus to confirm the effect of the electromagnetic waves used 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, operation may be imprope
r or unstable.
• The vehicle is near a facility that emits strong electroma
gnetic waves, such as a TV
transmitting tower, a po
wer station, a radio
station or an airport • The key is carried t
ogether with other com-
munication devices such
as cellular phones
or radios, or electric
al appliances such as
computers • 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

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 or front passen- ger’s door lock/unlock switch, the liftgateLOCK switch or the li
ftgate OPEN switch,
verification of the ID
code is performed.
The doors and the liftgate can be locked andunlocked and the engine can be started only when the ID codes of the vehicle and F. A . S . T. - k e y m a t c h .
The operating range is
within about 2.3 feet
(70 cm) of the handles of the driver’s door, front passenger door and liftgate.
Use the emergency key in such circum- stances.Refer to “To operate
without using the
F.A.S.T.-key” on page 5-26.  The F.A.S.T.-key is constantly performing reception opera
tions in its communication
with the vehicle. This means that the battery is always running down, regardless of howoften the F.A.S.T.-key is used. The battery life is about 1 to 3 years, depending on the usage conditions.  Since the F.A.S.T.-key is constantly perform- ing reception operati
ons, the reception of
strong electrom
agnetic waves
can accelerate
the running down of the ba
ttery. Do not place
near to electrical appliances such as televi-sions or computers.

The electronic immobilize
r 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 st
art attempt can only be
achieved (subject to ce
rtain 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 program
med to the vehicle’s
electronics.

immobilizer. To start
the engine, the ID code
which the F.A.S.T.-key sends must match theone registered to the immobilizer computer. (Refer to “Electronic immobilizer (Anti-theft starting system)” on page 5-18)
Changing the operation mode

CAUTION When the engine is not running, put the oper- ation mode in OFF. Leaving the operationmode in ON or ACC for a long time when the engine is not running may cause the bat- tery to be discharged, making it impossibleto start the engine. When the battery is disconnected, the current operation mode is memorized. After recon- necting the battery, the memorized mode is selected auto
matically. Before disconnect-
ing the battery for repair or replacement, make sure to put the operation mode in OFF. Be careful if you are not sure which opera-tion mode the vehicle is
in when the battery
is run down. The operation mode ca
nnot be changed from
OFF to ACC or ON if the F.A.S.T.-key is not detected to be in the vehicle. Refer to “Oper-ating range for starting the engine and changing the operation mode” on page 5-15.
