If The Vehicle Breaks Down; If The Operation Mode Cannot Be Changed To Off (Vehicles Equipped With The F.a.s.t.-Key); Jump-Starting The Engine - Mitsubishi MOTORS Outlander 2019 Owner's Manual

If the vehicle breaks down

If the vehicle breaks down
If your vehicle breaks down on the road,
move to the shoulder and turn on the hazard
warning flashers. If there is no shoulder, or
the shoulder is not safe, drive in the right lane
slowly with the hazard lights flashing, until
you come to a safe stopping place. Keep the
flashers flashing.
If the engine stops/fails
8
If the engine stops, there will be no power
assist to the steering and brakes, making these
difficult to use.
 The brake booster will not work, so the
brakes will not grip well. The brake pedal
will be harder to press than usual.
 Since there is no power steering assist, the
steering wheel will be hard to turn.
When the engine fails at the
intersection
Get help from your passengers, bystanders,
etc. to push the vehicle and move it to a safe
area.
8-2 For emergencies
If the operation mode can-
not be changed to OFF

(vehicles equipped with the
F.A.S.T.-key)
If the operation mode cannot be changed to
OFF, perform the following procedure.
1. Move the selector lever to the "P"
(PARK) position, and then change the
operation mode to OFF.
2. One of the other causes could be low bat-
tery voltage. If this occurs, the keyless
entry system, keyless operation function,
and steering wheel lock will also not oper-
ate. Contact an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer or a repair facility of your
choice.

Jump-starting the engine

If the engine cannot be started because the
battery is weak or dead, you can start it with
the battery from another vehicle using jumper
cables.
WARNING
 To reduce the risk of igniting flammable
gas that may be emitted from the battery,
carefully read this section before jump-
starting the vehicle.
 Do not try to start your vehicle by pushing
N00860700032
or towing. This can cause an accident
resulting in serious injury or death and
can damage the vehicle.
NOTE
 Do not use jumper cables if they have dam-
age or corrosion.
1. Take off any metal jewelry such as watch
bands or bracelets that might create an
accidental electrical contact.
2. Position the vehicles close enough
together so that the jumper cables can
reach, but be sure the vehicles aren't
touching each other.

CAUTION
 Check the other vehicle. It must have a 12-
volt battery. If the other system isn't 12-volt,
both systems can be damaged.
3. Set the parking brake firmly on your vehi-
cle and move the selector lever into the
"P" (PARK) position.
