You can limit the possible operations of the keyless opera-
tion system as listed below. (The functions of the KOS
system can be reduced to those of a conventional keyless
entry system). Please consult your MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorised Service Point. On vehicles with the
Mitsubishi Multi-Communication System (MMCS), this
function can be customised via the display. Refer to the
separate owner’s manual for details.
• You can limit operations to the locking and unlocking of
doors and the tailgate.
• You can limit operations to starting the engine.
When functions of the keyless operation system (KOS)
are modified, the transmitters operate as follows.
• Only locking and unlocking doors: exterior and interior
transmitters
• Only starting the engine: interior transmitter
NOTE
●
The KOS key employs ultra-weak electromagnetic waves.
In the following cases, the keyless operation system may
not operate properly or become unstable.
• In the vicinity of equipment that emits strong radio
waves, such as: TV transmitting towers, power stations,
radio broadcasting stations or airports.
• If the KOS key is carried close to a communications
device such as a cell phone or radio set, or kept close to
an electronic device such as a personal computer.
• If the KOS key is touching or covered by a metal object.
• If a keyless entry system is being used nearby.
• When the KOS key battery is worn out.
• When the KOS key is placed in an area with strong radio
waves or noise.
In such cases, use the emergency key.
Refer to “Operation without keyless operation function”
on page 1-38.
• Since the KOS key has to prompting signals in order to
initiate communication with the transmitters in the vehi-
cle, the battery continually wears down regardless of the
KOS key’s use. The battery life is 1 to 3 years, depend-
ing on usage conditions. When the battery wears out,
have it replaced at your MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorised Service Point.
●
Since the KOS key continually receives signals, strong
radio wave reception could affect battery wear. Do not
leave the key near a TV, PC, or other electronic device.
WARNING
!
●
When using electromedical devices other than
implanted cardiac pacemakers or implantable car-
diovascular-defibrillators, contact your doctor or
electromedical device manufacturer ahead of time to
determine the affects of radio waves on such devices.
In general, the function of electromedical devices
can be affected by radio waves.
● The keyless operation system (KOS) can be disa-
bled. For further information, please contact your
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorised Service Point.
