3. If the engine still will not start, the engine
could be flooded with too much gasoline.
While depressing the brake pedal on vehi-
cles equipped with Twin Clutch SST or
the clutch pedal on the vehicles equipped
with manual transaxle, push the accelera-
tor pedal all the way down and hold it
there, then crank the engine for 5 to 6 sec-
onds. Return the ignition switch to the
"LOCK" position and release the acceler-
ator pedal. Wait a few seconds, and then
crank the engine again for 5 to 6 seconds
while depressing the brake pedal or the
clutch pedal, but do not push the accelera-
tor pedal. Release the ignition key if the
engine starts. If the engine fails to start,
repeat these procedures. If the engine still
will not start, contact your local Mitsubi-
shi Motors dealer or a repair facility of
your choice for assistance.
Startability of Twin Clutch SST vehicle
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 gearshift lever
in the "D" (DRIVE) position.
This phenomenon occurs because the trans-
mission has not warmed up sufficiently; it
does not indicate a problem. If it occurs,
Free-hand Advanced Security Transmitter (F.A.S.T.-key) (if so equipped)
place the gearshift lever in the "P" (PARK)
position and let the engine idle for at least 10
minutes.
The transmission will warm up, and you will
be able to start normally.
Do not leave the vehicle during warm-up
operation.

be used to lock and unlock the driver's door
and to start the engine.
