[For vehicles equipped with the F.A.S.T.-
key]
For information on operation for vehicles
equipped with the F.A.S.T.-key, refer to
“Free-hand Advanced Security Transmitter
(F.A.S.T.-key): Starting” on page 5-13.
[Except for vehicles equipped with the
F.A.S.T.-key]
Do not operate the starter motor continu-
ously for longer than 15 seconds as this
could run the battery down or damage the
starter motor. If the engine does not start,
turn the ignition switch back to the
“OFF”, wait a few seconds, and then try
again. Trying repeatedly with the engine
or starter motor still turning will damage
the starter mechanism.
If the engine will not start because the bat-
tery is weak or discharged, refer to
“Jump-starting the engine” (on page 8-2)
for instructions.
A longer warm up period will only con-
sume extra fuel. The engine is warmed up
enough for driving when the bar graph of
engine coolant temperature display starts
to move or the low coolant temperature
indicator goes out. Refer to “Engine cool-
ant temperature display” on page 5-150.
The time until the power cuts out can be
changed to approximately 60 minutes.
The ACC power auto-cutout function can
be deactivated.
For details, we recommend you to consult an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
On vehicles equipped with the Smartphone
Link Display Audio, screen operations can
be used to make the adjustment.
Refer to the separate owners manual for
details.
To remove the key
NOTE
NOTE
The key cannot be removed unless the selec-
tor lever is set to the “P” (PARK) position,
which allows the ignition switch to turn to
the “OFF” position.
CAUTION
If the engine is stopped while driving, the
power brake booster will stop functioning
and greater effort for braking will be
required. Also, the power steering system
will not function and it will require greater
effort to manually steer the vehicle.
Do not leave the key in the “ON” position for
a long time when the engine is not running.
This will cause the battery to run down.
Do not turn the key to the “START” position
when the engine is running. It will damage
the starter motor.
