The electronic immobilizer is designed to sig-
nificantly reduce the possibility of vehicle
theft. The purpose of the system is to immo-
bilize the vehicle if an invalid start is
attempted. A valid start attempt can only be
achieved (subject to certain conditions) using
a key “registered” to the immobilizer system.
All of the keys provided with your new vehi-
cle have been programmed to the vehicle’s
electronics.
1- Free-hand Advanced Security Transmit-
ter (F.A.S.T.-key)

entry system function)
2- Emergency key
3- Key number plate
NOTE
The key is a precision electronic device with
a built-in signal transmitter. Please observe
the following in order to prevent damage.
• Do not leave where it may be exposed to
heat caused by direct sunlight, such as on
top of the dashboard.
• Do not take the remote control transmitter
apart.
• Do not excessively bend the key or subject
it to strong impacts.
• Keep the remote control transmitter dry.
• Keep away from magnetic objects such as
key holders.
• Keep away from devices that produce mag-
netism, such as audio systems, computers
and televisions.
• Keep away from devices that emit strong
electromagnetic waves, such as cellular
phones, wireless devices and high fre-
quency equipment (including medical
devices).
• Do not clean with ultrasonic cleaners.
• Do not leave the key where it may be
exposed to high temperature or high humid-
ity.
If you lose your key, to prevent the theft of
the vehicle immediately contact an autho-
rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
If you notify an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer of the key number, they can
make a new key. The key number is stamped
on the key number plate. Keep the key num-
ber plate in a safe place separate from the
key itself.
No keys other than those registered in
advance can be used to start the engine.
