MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point.
The security alarm has four modes:
System preparation mode (approx. 20 seconds)
(The buzzer sounds intermittently and the security
indicator (A) blinks.)
The system preparation time extends from the
point at which all of the doors are locked by press-
ing the LOCK switch on the remote control switch
or by using 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 trunk lid without using the keyless en-
try system or the keyless operation function and
without causing the alarm to sound (for example,
when you forget something inside the vehicle or re-
alize that a window is open).
System armed mode
(The buzzer stops and the security indicator contin-
ues to blink with the indicator’s reduced lit-up du-
ration time.)
Once the system preparation mode has ended, the
system armed mode starts.
If an unlawful opening of any of the doors, trunk
lid or bonnet is detected during the system armed
mode, the alarm will be activated to warn people
around the vehicle of an abnormal condition.
Also, for vehicles equipped with the interior alarm
sensor, if unlawful moving of the vehicle is at-
tempted or a vehicle intrusion is detected, the
alarm will be activated.
Alarm activation
Inside alarm (approx. 10 seconds):
The buzzer sounds, warning those inside the
vehicle of an abnormal condition. (except for
vehicles equipped with the interior alarm
sensor)
Outside alarm (approx. 30 seconds):
The turn-signal lamps blink and the horn (the
siren for vehicles equipped with the interior
alarm sensor) sounds, warning people around
the vehicle of an abnormal condition.
Refer to “Alarm activation” on page 1-33.
NOTE
l
The alarm will resume if unlawful actions
are taken again, even if the alarm has stop-
ped.
System cancellation
It is possible to cancel the system activation during
the system preparation mode or the system armed
mode.
In addition, it is possible to cancel the alarm once it
has been activated.
Refer to “Cancelling the system” on page 1-32,
“Cancelling the alarm” on page 1-33.
NOTE
l
When lending the vehicle to another person
or allowing the vehicle to be driven by some-
one who is unfamiliar with the security
alarm system, be sure to give the person a
proper explanation of the security alarm sys-
tem.
If a person who is unfamiliar with the securi-
ty alarm system accidentally unlocked the
vehicle, causing the alarm to sound, the
alarm would be a nuisance to people nearby.
