52 LOCKING AND UNLOCKING

Your vehicle has seat belts and other features that help
protect you and your passengers in an accident.
Seat belts are the most important safety device. When
worn properly, seat belts can reduce the chance of serious
injury or death in various types of crashes. For added
protection during a severe frontal collision, your vehicle
has a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) with air bags
for the driver and front seat passenger. The seats, head
restraints, and door locks also are safety equipment,
which must be used correctly.
Always check the following before you drive:
1. Everyone in the vehicle is properly wearing their seat
belt.
2. Infants and small children are properly secured in
appropriate child restraints in the rear seat.
3. All doors are closed and locked.
4. Seat backs are fully upright, with head restraints
properly adjusted.No safety equipment can prevent all injuries or deaths
that can occur in severe collisions, but by making sure all
your passengers follow the instructions in this manual,
you can help reduce the risk of injury.
FRONT SEATS
Adjust the driver's seat as far back as possible to a
position that enables you to fully apply the pedals, easily
control the steering wheel, safely operate the vehicle and
also gives you a clear frontal view.

SEAT BELTS
Seat belts are installed in your vehicle for the protection
of the driver and passengers.
Always use the seat belts. In an accident, injury to the
driver and passengers may be reduced if the seat belts are
properly used.
NOTE: Legislation in your state may require seat belt
usage; however, even if it is not required seat belts should
always be used.
WARNING!
²Lock all doors before driving to reduce the risk of
injury or ejection in a collision.
²Seat belts should always be worn by every adult who
drives or rides in this vehicle, and by all children
who are large enough to wear seat belts properly.
²Never use one seat belt for more than one occupant.
²Never carry more people in the vehicle than there
are seat belts.
²Always adjust the belt for a snug fit.
²Always route the shoulder belt over your shoulder
and across your chest. Never put it behind you or
under your arm.
²Always wear the lap belt as low as possible across
your hips, not around your waist.
²To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury in a
collision, including from a deploying driver air
bag, the driver should adjust the driver's seat to
the rear most position that still allows good vis-
ibility and good control of the steering wheel, the
brake, accelerator, and vehicle controls.
66 SEATS, SEAT BELTS, CHILD RESTRAINTS AND AIR BAGS

WARNING!
²Children who are not buckled up, with all the
doors locked, can be thrown out of the vehicle or
otherwise be seriously or fatally injured in the
event of a collision.
²A child should never be left unattended or unsu-
pervised around the vehicle. When you leave the
vehicle, always take the child out as well.
²Children can die from heat stroke if trapped
inside vehicles, especially on hot days.
²Keep vehicles locked and trunks closed when not
in use. Keep vehicle keys away from children.
Seat Belts And Pregnant Women
We recommend that pregnant women use the seat belts
throughout their pregnancy. Keeping the mother safe is
the best way to keep the baby safe.
Pregnant women should wear the lap part of the belt
across the thighs and as snug across the hips as possible.
Keep the belt low so that it does not come across the
abdomen. That way the strong bones of the hips will take
the force if there is a collision.

Seat belt reminder/warning light
A chime and warning light are used to
remind the driver to fasten the seat belt.
When the ignition key is turned to the
``ON'' position, the warning light will illu-
minate and a chime will sound for about 6
seconds. If the driver 's seat belt remains unfastened
approximately 1 minute later, the warning light will flash
and the chime sound intermittently (each 12 times) when
the vehicle is driven. If the driver subsequently unfastens
the seat belt while driving, the warning light and chime
will issue further warnings. And if the seat belt remains
unfastened, the warning light and chime will issue
further warnings each time the vehicle starts moving.
When the seat belt is fastened, the warnings will stop.
Changing the setting for warning operation
It is possible to disable the warning function so that
warnings are not issued after the start of driving. (The
function is initially enabled at the factory.)
1. Fasten the driver 's seat belt.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the ``ON'' position.3. With the seat belt still fastened, confirm that the
warning light goes off.
4. Within 1 minute of seeing the warning light go off,
remove the plate from the buckle and re-insert it 3 times.
5. Turn the ignition switch to the ``LOCK'' or ``ACC''
position. The buzzer (with a short tone) will sound once
to indicate that the setting change is complete.
NOTE
²
If the driver 's door is open at this time, the buzzer
(with long intermittent tones) will sound continously
but the setting change will not be completed. To
complete the setting change, remove the key or close
the driver 's door. The buzzer (with a short tone) will
sound once to indicate that the setting change is
complete.
²If you wish to change the setting again, perform the
same procedure again.
²If you do not understand how to change the setting,
consult an authorized Mitisubishi dealer.
