• If the security alarm system is in the sys-
tem armed mode, the alarm will sound if
the doors are opened after being unlocked
with the key, the inside lock knob or the
central door lock switch (vehicles equip-
ped with the central door lock switch).
• Even if the security alarm is set to “Ac-
tive”, the system preparation mode is not
entered if the keyless entry system or the
keyless operation function was not used
to lock the vehicle.
Electronic immobilizer (Anti-
theft starting system)
E00300201898
[For
vehicles equipped with the keyless operation
system]
For information on operations for vehicles equip-
ped with the keyless operation system, refer to
“Keyless operation system: Electronic immobilizer
(Anti-theft starting system)” on pages 1-11, 1-15.
[Except for vehicles equipped with the keyless op-
eration system]
The electronic immobilizer is designed to reduce
significantly the possibility of vehicle theft. The pur-
pose of the system is to immobilize the vehicle if
an invalid start is attempted. A valid start attempt
can only be achieved, using a key “registered” to
the immobilizer system.
NOTE
l
In the following cases, the vehicle may not
be able to receive the registered ID code
from the registered key and the engine may
not start.
• When the key contacts a key ring or other
metallic or magnetic object (Type A)
• When the key grip contacts metal of an-
other key (Type B)
• When the key contacts or is close to other
immobilizing keys (including keys of oth-
er vehicles) (Type C)
In cases like these, remove the object or
additional key from the vehicle key. Then
try again to start the engine. If the engine
does not start, we recommend you to con-
tact your MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point.
NOTE
l
If
you lose your key, contact your
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point as soon as possible.
To obtain a replacement or extra spare key,
take your vehicle and all remaining keys to
your MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point. All the keys have to be re-reg-
istered in the immobilizer computer unit.
The immobilizer can register up to 8 differ-
ent keys.
