1. Make sure that all electric devices, such
as lights, air conditioning blower and rear
window defogger, are turned off.
2. While depressing the brake pedal, press
the accelerator pedal halfway and hold it
there, then crank the engine. Release the
accelerator pedal, immediately after the
engine starts.
3. If the engine still will not start, the engine
could be flooded with too much gasoline.
While depressing the brake pedal, push
the accelerator pedal all the way down
and hold it there, then press the engine
switch to crank the engine. If the engine
does not start after 5 to 6 seconds, push
the engine switch to stop cranking the
engine, and release the accelerator pedal.
Put the operation mode in OFF. Wait a
few seconds, and then press the engine
switch to crank the engine again while
depressing the brake pedal, but do not
push the accelerator pedal. If the engine
fails to start, repeat these procedures. If
the engine still will not start, contact your
local Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair
facility of your choice for assistance.
Startability of continuously variable trans-
mission (CVT) vehicles with an ambient
temperature of -4 °F (-20 °C) or lower
When the ambient temperature is -4 °F (-20
°C) or lower, it may not be possible to start
from a standstill even with the selector lever
in the “D” (DRIVE) or “R” (REVERSE)
position.
This phenomenon occurs because the trans-
axle has not warmed up sufficiently; it does
not indicate a problem. If this occurs, place
the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) position
and let the engine idle for at least 10 minutes.
The transaxle will warm up, and you will be
able to start normally.
Do not leave the vehicle during warm-up
operation.

Stopping the engine
WARNING
 Do not operate the engine switch while
driving except in an emergency. If the
engine is stopped while driving, the brake
servomechanism will cease to function and
braking efficiency will deteriorate. Also,
the power steering system will not func-
tion and it will require greater manual
effort to operate the steering. This could
result in a serious accident.
NOTE
 If you have to bring the engine to an emer-
gency stop while driving, press and hold the
engine switch for 3 seconds or more, or press
it quickly 3 times or more. The engine will
stop and the operation mode will go to ACC.
 Do not stop the engine with the selector lever
in any position other than the “P” (PARK)
position. If the engine is stopped with the
selector lever in any position other than the
“P” (PARK) position, the operation mode
will go to ACC rather than OFF.
Put the operation mode in OFF after placing
the selector lever in the “P” (PARK) posi-
tion.
