Warning activation
N00503500216
With the F.A.S.T.-key, warnings are given through buzzers and
displayed symbols in order to prevent mistaken operations or
vehicle theft.
When a warning operates, be sure to check the vehicle and the
F.A.S.T.-key. A warning is also shown if there is a problem in
the F.A.S.T.-key.
If the following warning shows, contact an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
CAUTION
!
When the engine is not running, put the operation
mode in OFF. Leaving the operation mode in ON or
ACC for a long time when the engine is not running
may cause the battery to be discharged, making it
impossible to start the engine.
When the battery is disconnected, the current oper-
ation mode is memorized. After reconnecting the
battery, the memorized mode is selected automati-
cally. Before disconnecting the battery for repair or
replacement, make sure to put the operation mode
in OFF.
Be careful if you are not sure which operation mode
the vehicle is in when the battery is run down.
The operation mode cannot be changed from OFF to
ACC or ON if the F.A.S.T.-key is not detected to be
in the vehicle. Refer to “Operating range for start-
ing the engine and changing the operation mode” on
page 3-17.
