Mitsubishi Outlander: When turning from “ACC” to “LOCK”
[Vehicles equipped with M/T] Put the gearshift lever into the “N” (Neutral) position, and slowly turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” position while pressing it.
[Vehicles equipped with CVT or Twin Clutch SST] First, set the selector lever (CVT) or the gearshift lever (Twin Clutch SST) to the “P” (PARK) position, and then slowly turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” position while pressing it.
Note
► Vehicles equipped with CVT or Twin Clutch SST, the ignition switch cannot be turned to the “LOCK” position unless the selector lever (CVT) or the gearshift lever (Twin Clutch SST) is in the “P” (PARK) position.
Caution
► Do not turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” position while driving. The
steering wheel will be locked, causing loss of control.
► 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 function and it will require greater manual
effort to operate the steering.
► Do not leave the ignition switch in the “ON” or “ACC” position for a long time
when the engine is not running, doing so will cause the battery to be discharged.
► Do not turn the ignition switch to the “START” position when the engine is running,
doing so could damage the starter motor.
