security indicator lamp in the instrument clus-
ter blinks.)
Indicator lamp
The system preparation time extends from the
point at which all of the doors and the tailgate
are locked by pressing of the LOCK switch
on the key or the keyless operation function
to the point at which the system armed mode
goes into effect.
During this time, it is possible to temporarily
open a door or the tailgate without using the
keyless entry system or the keyless operation
function and without causing the alarm to
sound (for example, when you forget some-
thing inside the vehicle or realize that a win-
dow is open).
(The buzzer stops and the security indicator
lamp continues to blink with the indicator’s
reduced lit-up duration time.)
Once the system preparation mode has ended,
the system armed mode starts.
If an unlawful opening of any of the doors or
tailgate is detected during the system armed
mode, the alarm will be activated to warn
people around the vehicle of an abnormal
condition.
Inside alarm (approximately 10 seconds):
The buzzer sounds with the security indi-
cator blinking in time with the sound to
warn those inside the vehicle of an abnor-
mal condition.
Outside alarm (approximately 30 seconds):
The turn-signal lamps blink and the horn
sounds, warning people around the vehi-
cle of an abnormal condition.
Refer to “Alarm activation” on page 3-21.
The alarm system will not be activated if the
doors and the tailgate have been locked using
a key, the inside lock knob or the central
door lock switch (instead of the keyless entry
system or the keyless operation function).
If the turn-signal lamps do not blink after the
locking and unlocking operation using the
keyless entry system or the keyless operation
function, the security alarm system may be
malfunctioning.
Have the vehicle inspected at an authorised
MITSUBISHI MOTORS dealer.
If the confirmation function (blinking of the
turn-signal lamps by locking and unlocking
the doors and the tailgate) is deactivated, the
turn-signal lamps do not blink after the lock-
ing and unlocking operation.
For information on the confirmation func-
tion, refer to “Keyless entry system” on page
3-3 and “To operate using the keyless opera-
tion function” on page 3-8.
The security alarm has four
modes:
System preparation mode
(approximately 20 seconds)
System armed mode
Alarm activation
