3-2 Features and controls
3Break-in recommendations
N00508700330
Advanced automobile manufacturing techniques permit you to
operate your new vehicle without requiring a long break-in
period of low-speed driving.
However, you can add to the future performance and economy
of your vehicle by observing the following precautions during
the first 300 miles (500 km).
Drive your vehicle at moderate speeds during the break-in
period.
Avoid revving the engine.
Avoid rough driving such as sudden starts, sudden accel-
eration, prolonged high-speed driving and sudden brak-
ing. These would have a detrimental effect on the engine
and also cause increased fuel and oil consumption, which
could result in malfunction of the engine components. Be
particularly careful to avoid full acceleration while in low
shift position (low gears).
Do not overload the vehicle. Stay within the seating
capacity. (Refer to “Cargo load precautions” on page 4-
13.)
Do not use this vehicle for trailer towing.

Customer remote control transmitter program-
ming
N00544000089
You can program new remote control transmitters to the system
if you have one valid (already registered) remote control trans-
mitter by doing the following:
1. Have available all (current and new) remote control trans-
mitters you wish to register.
2. With a valid (already registered) remote control transmit-
ter, press the UNLOCK button (2) for 4 to 10 seconds.
Then press and hold the LOCK button (1).
3. Within 10 seconds of pressing the LOCK button, release
the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons in sequence.
At this time, ID codes for all remote control transmitters
except for the transmitter used in steps 2 and 3 are erased
and the answerback function (door is locked and
unlocked) informs you that the registration mode has been
activated.
4. Within 60 seconds after step 3, complete the following ID
code registration operation using the next remote control
transmitter you wish to register within 4 seconds.
i) Press both the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons for 2 sec-
onds.
ii) Release both the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons for 1
second.
iii) Press the UNLOCK button. The answerback function
informs you that the ID code registration of the transmitter
is completed.
5. To register the ID codes of additional remote control
transmitters, repeat step 4 within 60 seconds after step 4.6. If no ID code of a remote control transmitter is registered
within 60 seconds after step 4, the registration mode is
canceled and the normal mode returns.
NOTEFor verification purposes, try to lock and unlock the doors
after the registration is completed.
The indicator light (4) comes on each time a button is
pressed.
The keyless entry system does not work if the key is in the
ignition switch.
The remote control transmitter can be used from about 40
feet (12 m) away. However, this distance may change if
your vehicle is near a TV transmitting tower, a power sta-
tion, or a radio station.
If the UNLOCK button (2) is pressed when all doors and
the liftgate are locked and no doors or the liftgate are
opened within about 30 seconds, the doors and the liftgate
will automatically re-lock.
On a vehicle equipped with a Mitsubishi Multi-Communi-
cation System, the functions can be adjusted on the
screen. For details, refer to the separate operation manual.
If the following conditions are observed after pressing the
LOCK (1) or UNLOCK (2) button on the remote control
transmitter, the battery in the remote control transmitter
may need to be replaced.
• The doors and the liftgate cannot be locked or unlocked.
• The panic alarm cannot be operated.
• The indicator light (4) is dim or does not come on.
If you lose your remote control transmitter, please contact
an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer for a replacement.
