2. While depressing the brake pedal {contin-
uously variable transmission (CVT)} or
the clutch pedal (manual transaxle), press
the accelerator pedal halfway and hold it
there, then crank the engine. Release the
accelerator pedal, immediately after the
engine starts.
3. If the engine still will not start, the engine
could be flooded with too much gasoline.
While depressing the brake pedal (CVT)
or the clutch pedal (manual transaxle),
push the accelerator pedal all the way
down and hold it there, then press the
engine switch to crank the engine. If the
engine does not start after 5 to 6 seconds,
push the engine switch to stop cranking
the engine, and release the accelerator
pedal. Put the operation mode in OFF.
Wait a few seconds, and then press the
engine switch to crank the engine again
while depressing the brake pedal (CVT)
or the clutch pedal (manual transaxle), but
do not push the accelerator pedal. If the
engine fails to start, repeat these proce-
dures. If the engine still will not start, con-
tact your local Mitsubishi Motors dealer
or a repair facility of your choice for
assistance.
Startability of continuously variable trans-
mission (CVT) vehicles with an ambient
temperature of -4 °F (-20 °C) or lower
When the ambient temperature is -4 °F (-20
°C) or lower, it may not be possible to start
from a standstill even with the selector lever
in the “D” (DRIVE) or “R” (REVERSE)
position.
This phenomenon occurs because the trans-
axle has not warmed up sufficiently; it does
not indicate a problem. If this occurs, place
the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) position
and let the engine idle for at least 10 minutes.
The transaxle will warm up, and you will be
able to start normally.
Do not leave the vehicle during warm-up
operation.

1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Fully engage the parking brake while
depressing the brake pedal.
3. On vehicles with a manual transaxle,
press the engine switch to stop the engine,
and then move the gearshift lever to the
1st (on a uphill) or “R” (Reverse) (on a
downhill) position.
On vehicles equipped with continuously
variable transmission (CVT), move the
selector lever to the “P” (PARK) position,
and then press the engine switch to stop
the engine.
Stopping the engine
WARNING
Do not operate the engine switch while
driving except in an emergency. If the
engine is stopped while driving, the brake
servomechanism will cease to function and
braking efficiency will deteriorate. Also,
the power steering system will not func-
tion and it will require greater manual
effort to operate the steering. This could
result in a serious accident.
NOTE
If you have to bring the engine to an emer-
gency stop while driving, press and hold the
engine switch for 3 seconds or more, or press
it quickly 3 times or more. The engine will
stop and the operation mode will go to ACC.
On vehicles equipped with continuously
variable transmission (CVT), do not stop the
engine with the selector lever in any position
other than the “P” (PARK) position. If the
engine is stopped with the selector lever in
any position other than the “P” (PARK) posi-
tion, the operation mode will go to ACC
rather than OFF.
Put the operation mode in OFF after placing
the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) posi-
tion.
