Before moving the vehicle to a safe area, be
aware of the following:
l
The brake booster becomes inoperative
and the pedal effort will increase. Press
down the brake pedal harder than usual.
l Since the power steering system is no
longer operative, the steering wheel feels
heavy when turning it.
If the operation mode
cannot be changed to OFF
(vehicles equipped with the
keyless operation system)
If the operation mode cannot be changed to
OFF, perform the following procedure.
8-02 For emergencies
1. Move the selector lever to the "P"
(PARK) position, and then change the
operation mode to OFF. (For vehicles
with CVT)
2. One of the other causes could be low
battery voltage. If this occurs, the key-
less entry system, keyless operation
function and steering lock will also not
operate.
Contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point.

Emergency starting

If the engine cannot be started because the
battery is weak or dead, the battery from an-
other vehicle can be used with jumper cables
to start the engine.
WARNING
l To start the engine by using jumper cables
from another vehicle, perform the correct
procedures according to the instruction
below. Incorrect procedures could result
in a fire or explosion or damage to the ve-
hicles.
OGAE19E1
CAUTION
l Do not attempt to start the engine by pulling
or pushing the vehicle.
It could damage your vehicle.
l Always wear protective eye goggles when
working near the battery.
l Keep the battery out of the reach of children.
1. Get the vehicles close enough so the
jumper cables can reach, but be sure the
vehicles aren't touching each other.
CAUTION
l
Check the other vehicle. It must have a 12-
volt battery.
If the other system isn't 12-volt, shorting can
damage both vehicles.
2. Turn off all lamps, heater and other elec-
trical loads.
3. Set the parking brake firmly on each ve-
hicle. Put an A/T, CVT in "P" (Park) or
an M/T in "N" (Neutral).

position or put the operation mode in
OFF.
