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.
NOTE
For 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.

NOTE
The F.A.S.T.-key uses weak electromagnetic waves.
In cases such as the following, operation may be improper
or unstable.
• The vehicle is near a facility that emits strong electro-
magnetic waves, such as a TV transmitting tower, a
power station, a radio station or an airport
• The key is carried together with other communication
devices such as cellular phones or radios, or electrical
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
Use the emergency key in such circumstances.
Refer to “To operate without using the F.A.S.T.-key” on
page 3-30.

The F.A.S.T.-key is constantly performing reception oper-
ations in its communication with the vehicle. This means
that the battery is always running down, regardless of how
often 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 performing reception
operations, the reception of strong electromagnetic waves
can accelerate the running down of the battery. Do not
place near to electrical appliances such as televisions or
computers.
Operating range of the F.A.S.T.-key
N00503200125
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 passenger’s door lock/unlock switch, the liftgate LOCK
switch or the liftgate OPEN 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.-key
match.NOTE
When the battery of the F.A.S.T.-key has run down or
there are strong electromagnetic waves or noise in the
area, the operating range could decrease or operations
could become unstable.

NOTE
Your vehicle is equipped with an electronic immobilizer.
To start the engine, the ID code which the F.A.S.T.-key
sends must match the one registered to the immobilizer
computer. (Refer to “Electronic immobilizer (Anti-theft
starting system)” on page 3-31)Changing the operation mode
N00568000012
If you press the engine switch without pressing the brake pedal
{continuously variable transmission (CVT)} or the clutch
pedal (manual transaxle) while the vehicle is stationary, you
can change the operation mode in the order of OFF, ACC, ON,
OFF.
ACC power auto-cutout function
N00568100013
After approximately 30 minutes has elapsed with the operation
mode in ACC, the function automatically cuts out the power
for the audio system and other electric devices that can be
operated with that mode.
When the engine switch is pressed while the operation mode is
in ACC, the power is supplied again to those devices.
CAUTION
!
When the engine is not running, put the operation
mode in OFF. Leaving the operation mode in ON or
ACC for a long time when the engine is not running
may cause the battery to be discharged, making it
impossible to start the engine and to lock and unlock
the steering wheel.
When the battery is disconnected, the current oper-
ation mode is memorized. After reconnecting the
battery, the memorized mode is selected automati-
cally. Before disconnecting the battery for repair or
replacement, make sure to put the operation mode
in OFF.
Be careful if you are not sure which operation mode
the vehicle is in when the battery is run down.
The operation mode cannot 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 “Operating range for start-
ing the engine and changing the operation mode” on
page 3-18.
