MITSUBISHI L200 2019 (in English) Repair Manual

Seat belts
To protect you and your passengers in the event of an accident, it is most important that
the seat belts are worn correctly while driv- ing.
The front seat belts each have a pretensioner system. (Single cab and Club cab)
The front seat belts and the rear outer seat belts each have a pretensioner system. (Dou-
ble cab)
These belts are used the same way as a con- ventional seat belt.
Refer to “Seat belt pretensioner system and force limiter system*” on page 4-10.:ARN,NGz Seat belts should always be worn by every
adult who drives or rides in this vehicle, and by all children who are tall enough to
wear seat belts properly.
Other children should always use proper child restraint systems.
z Always place the shoulder belt over your
shoulder and across your chest. Never put
it behind you or under your arm.
z One seat belt should be used by only one
person. Doing otherwise can be danger-
ous.:ARN,NGz The seat belt will provide its wearer with
maximum protection if the recliner seat- back is placed in fully upright position.
When the seatback is reclined, there is
greater risk that the passenger will slide
under the belt, especially in a forward im- pact accident, and may be injured by the
belt or by striking the instrument panel or seatbacks.
z Remove any twists when using the belt.
z No modifications or additions should be
made by the user which will either pre-
vent the seat belt adjusting devices from operating to remove slack, or prevent theseat belt assembly from being adjusted to remove slack.
z Never hold a child in your arms or on
your lap when riding in this vehicle, even
if you are wearing your seat belt. To do so risks severe or fatal injury to the child in
a collision or sudden stop.
z Always adjust the seat belt to a snug fit.
z Always wear the lap portion of the belt
over your hips.3-point type seat belt (with
emergency locking mechanism)
This type of belt requires no length adjust-
ment. Once worn, the belt adjusts itself to the movement of the wearer, but in the event of a
sudden or strong shock, the belt automatical-
ly locks to hold the wearer’s body.
NOTEz You can check if the belt locks by pulling it
forward quickly.
To fasten
1. Pull the seat belt out slowly while hold-
ing the latch plate.
NOTEz When the seat belts cannot be pulled out in a
locked condition, pull the belts once force-
fully and then return them. After that, pull
the belts out slowly once again.
2. Insert the latch plate into the buckle until
a “click” is heard.

:ARN,NGzNever wear the lap portion of the belt
across your abdomen. During accidents it
can press sharply against the abdomen and increase the risk of injury.
z The seat belts must not be twisted when
worn.
3. Pull the belt slightly to adjust slackness
as desired.
To unfasten
Hold the latch plate and push the button on
the buckle.
NOTEz As the belt retracts automatically, keep hold-
ing the latch plate while retracting so that the
belt stows slowly. Failure to do this could damage the vehicle.NOTEz If the seat belt (A) or ring (B) becomes dirty,
the belt may not retract smoothly. If the seat
belt and ring are dirty, clean them with a
mild soap or detergent solution.Seat belt reminder

For the driver and the frontpassenger

NOTEzWhen luggage is placed on the front passen-
ger seat, a sensor in the seat cushion may,
depending on the weight and position of the
luggage, cause the warning tone to sound and the warning lamp to come on. (Club cab

Pregnant women restraint:ARN,NGzSeat belts work for everyone, including
pregnant women. Pregnant women should
use the available seat belts. This will re- duce the likelihood of injury to both thewoman and the unborn child. The lap belt
should be worn across the thighs and as snug against the hips as possible, but not
across the waist. Consult your doctor if you have any additional questions or con-
cerns.Seat belt pretensioner
system and force limiter system*
The front seat belts each have a pretensioner system and force limiter system. (Single caband Club cab)
The front seat belts and the rear outer seat
belts each have a pretensioner system and
force limiter system. (Double cab)
Pretensioner system
When the ignition switch or the operation
mode is under the following conditions, if
there is a frontal impact or a side impact (ve-
hicles equipped with SRS side airbags and SRS curtain airbags) severe enough to injure the driver and/or front passenger or when arollover or overturning of the vehicle is de-
tected (if so equipped), the pretensioner sys-
tem will retract the respective seat belts in- stantaneously, thus maximizing the seat belt’s
effectiveness.
[Except for vehicles equipped with keyless operation system@
The ignition switch is in the “ON” or
“START” position.
[Vehicles equipped with keyless operation system@
The operation mode is in ON.
:ARN,NGz To obtain the best results from your pre-
tensioner seat belt, make sure you have adjusted your seat correctly and wear your seat belt properly.CAUT,ONz Installation of audio equipment or repairs in
the vicinity of the pretensioner seat belts or
floor console must be performed in line with MITSUBISHI MOTORS guidelines. It is
important to do so because the work could affect the pretensioner systems.
z If you need to scrap the vehicle, please con-
sult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point. It is important to do so be- cause unexpected activation of the preten-
sioner seat belts could cause injuries.NOTEz The pretensioner seat belts will be activated
if the vehicle suffers a severe impact, even if
the seat belts are not worn.
z The pretensioner seat belts are designed to
work only once. After the pretensioner seat
belts have been activated, we recommend
you to have them replaced by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
ice Point.SRS warning lamp
This warning lamp is shared by the SRS air-
bags and the pretensioner seat belts.
Refer to “SRS warning lamp” on page 4-34.

Force limiter system
In the event of a collision, each force limitersystem will effectively absorb the load ap-
plied to the seat belt so as to minimize the impact to the passenger.
Child restraint
When transporting children in your vehicle,some type of child restraint system should al-
ways be used according to the size of the child. This is required by law in most coun-
tries.
The regulations concerning driving with chil- dren in the front seat may differ from country
to country. You are advised to comply with the relevant regulations.
:ARN,NGz When possible, put children in the rear
seat. Accident statistics indicate that chil-
dren of all sizes and ages are safer when properly restrained in the rear seat rather than in the front seat.
z Holding a child in your arms is no substi-
tute for a restraint system. Failure to use
a proper restraint system can result in se-
vere or fatal injury to the child.
z Each child restraint device or fixing is to
be used only by one child.:ARN,NGz When attaching a child restraint system
to the rear seat, adjust the front seat toprevent the front seatbacks from touching
the child

:ARN,NGzA REARWARD FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT must NOT be used in the front passenger seat if the front passenger

Older children
Children who have outgrown the child re-straint system should be seated in the seat
and wear combination lap shoulder belt.
The lap portion of the belt should be snug
and positioned low on the abdomen so that it is below the top of the hip-bone. Otherwise,the belt could intrude into the child’s abdo-
men during an accident and cause injury.Child restraint
