2019–2026 Mitsubishi Outlander FAQ

What should I do when the No Key Detected warning appears?

2025–2026

This warning means the transmitter is outside when a door closes with the electric motor switch ON; keep the transmitter inside the vehicle.

Page 141 in the 2026 manual →

What should I do when the Key Battery Low warning appears?

2025–2026

The warning means the transmitter battery is running low; replace it with a new one.

What should I do if the SRS airbag warning lamp stays on or flashes?

2025–2026

Have the system checked and repaired if the lamp stays on after approximately 7 seconds, flashes, fails to illuminate, or comes on while driving.

If the lamp is on, the airbag or pretensioner systems may not operate in a crash, so have the vehicle checked immediately at a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorised Service Point.

When is scheduled maintenance required?

2025–2026

Scheduled maintenance is required at regular intervals, with additional or more frequent service under severe driving conditions.

Page 482 in the 2026 manual →

2022

If equipped, the oil control system calculates the interval from driving conditions; for the PR25DD engine, it lists 10,000 miles (16,000 km) and cannot be adjusted manually.

What happens if I use a different transaxle fluid?

2025–2026

Use only MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENUINE ATF for the transaxle; a different fluid could damage the transaxle.

What should I do before removing spark plugs?

2025–2026

Turn off the engine and electric motor switch, apply the parking brake, and use the correct socket to avoid damaging the spark plugs.

Page 466 in the 2026 manual →

2022

Do not reuse iridium platinum-tipped spark plugs by cleaning or regapping; replace them with recommended or equivalent ones.

What does a blinking green charging indicator mean?

2025–2026

A blinking green charging indicator means the vehicle's charging system is operating.

Page 44 in the 2026 manual →

Can I install a commercially available remote-start system?

2025–2026

No; the anti-theft immobilizer is not compatible with commercially available remote-start systems, which may cause starting problems and loss of security protection.

Page 166 in the 2026 manual →

2022

Do not use one because it is incompatible with the immobilizer and may cause starting problems or reduce security protection.

Page 140 in the 2022 manual →

How do I view the EV Driving Ratio display?

2025–2026

Use the steering-wheel trip-computer switches to change screens and select EV Driving Ratio, which shows the time traveled using electric power or both electric and engine power.

Page 156 in the 2026 manual →

2022

Distance to empty estimates how far you can drive before refueling, based on tank fuel and actual fuel consumption; it updates every 30 seconds.

Page 101 in the 2022 manual →

What should I do if the malfunction indicator light blinks?

2022

  1. A blinking light indicates an engine misfire that may damage the emission-control system.
  2. Do not drive above 45 MPH (72 km/h), and avoid hard acceleration or deceleration and steep uphill grades.
  3. If possible, reduce the cargo being hauled or towed, then have the vehicle inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer; towing is not required.
  4. Continued operation without inspection and necessary repairs could cause poor driveability, reduced fuel economy, and possible emission-control system damage.
Page 111 in the 2022 manual →

2019–2020

As soon as possible, have a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point check the system.

Page 26 in the 2020 manual →

What does the Key Battery Low warning mean?

2022

The F.A.S.T.-key battery is low; install a new battery.

Page 126 in the 2022 manual →

What should I do if the No Key Detected warning appears?

2022

If the door was closed with the F.A.S.T.-key outside while the ignition is ON, make sure the key is inside the vehicle.

Page 126 in the 2022 manual →

What should I do when the oil replacement indicator appears?

2022

Have the engine oil changed within two weeks or before 500 miles (800 km); deteriorated oil may damage the engine.

Page 122 in the 2022 manual →

How do I lock or unlock all doors and the tailgate from inside?

2019–2020

Use the central door lock switch on the driver's door to lock or unlock all doors and the tailgate, but it cannot lock the driver's door while open.

If repeated switching activates the protection circuit, wait approximately 1 minute before using the switch again.

Page 52 in the 2020 manual →

What should I do if the tire repair kit cannot raise pressure within 10 minutes?

2019–2020

If pressure does not reach the specified level within 10 minutes, the tire may be too damaged for sealant; contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point or another specialist.
