Changing the operation mode
If you press the engine switch without de-
pressing the brake pedal (CVT) or the clutch
pedal (M/T), you can change the operation
mode in the order of OFF, ACC, ON, OFF.
CAUTION
l
When the engine is not running, put the op-
eration mode in OFF. Leaving the operation
mode in ON or ACC for a long time when
the engine is not running may cause the bat-
tery to be discharged, making it impossible
to start the engine, lock and unlock the steer-
ing wheel.
l
When the battery is disconnected, the cur-
rent operation mode is memorized. After re-
connecting the battery, the memorized mode
is selected automatically. 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.
CAUTION
l
The operation mode cannot be changed from
OFF to ACC or ON if the keyless operation
key is not detected to be in the vehicle. Refer
to “Keyless operation system: Operating
range for starting the engine and changing
the operation mode” on page 3-10.
l
When there is the keyless operation key in
the vehicle and the operation mode is not
changed, the battery in the keyless operation
key may have worn out.
Refer to “Warning activation” on page
3-14.
NOTE
l
If the operation mode cannot be changed to
OFF, perform the following procedure.
1
.
Move the selector lever to the “P”
(PARK) position, and then change
the operation mode to OFF. (For ve-
hicles with CVT)
2
.
One of the other causes could be low
battery voltage. If this occurs, the
keyless entry system, keyless opera-
tion function and steering lock will
also not operate. Contact a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point.
ACC power auto-cutout func-
tion
After approximately 30 minutes has elapsed
with the operation mode in ACC, the func-
tion 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 sup-
plied again to those devices.
NOTE
l
It is possible to modify functions as follows:
•
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, consult a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
l
When ACC power supply automatic stop,
the steering wheel can’t lock and you can’t
lock and unlock the doors by the keyless op-
eration key.
Warning activation
In order to prevent vehicle theft or the acci-
dental operation of the keyless operation sys-
tem, the buzzer and the display on the infor-
mation screen in the multi-information dis-
play are used to alert the driver.
