6. Press the engine switch.
7. Confirm that all warning lights and warn-
ing displays are functioning properly.
After several attempts, you may experience
that the engine still does not start.
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 {contin-
uously variable transmission (CVT)} or
the clutch pedal (manual transaxle), 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 (CVT)
or the clutch pedal (manual transaxle),
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 (CVT)
or the clutch pedal (manual transaxle), but
do not push the accelerator pedal. If the
engine fails to start, repeat these proce-
dures. If the engine still will not start, con-
tact 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
-22 °F (-30 °C) or lower
When the ambient temperature is -22 °F (-30
°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.

NOTE
 On vehicles equipped with continuously
variable transmission (CVT), the engine can
only be started when the selector lever is in
the “P” (PARK) or “N” (NEUTRAL) posi-
tion.
For safety reasons, the engine should be
started when the selector lever is in the “P”
(PARK) position in which the driving wheels
lock.
NOTE
 Minor noises may be heard on engine start-
up. These will disappear as the engine warms
up.

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.
