E00407801546
Warning lamp Warning display type 1
Warning display type 2
The warning lamp/display illuminates when there
is
a fault with the system. In addition, the warning
display will be displayed on the information screen
in the multi-information display.
Normally, when the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position or the operation mode is put in ON,
the warning lamp should illuminate for several sec-
onds and then should go out.
In addition, if an SRS airbag and the pretensioner
system operate, the warning lamp illuminates and
stays on.
The SRS warning lamp is shared by the Supplemen-
tal Restraint System (SRS) and the seat belt preten-
sioner system. WARNING
l When
the warning lamp/display behaves
as follows, the system could be faulty.
The SRS airbag or pretensioner seat belt
might not operate normally during a col-
lision, etc., resulting in injury, so have
them inspected by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point. • The warning lamp does not illuminateor stays illuminated when the ignition
switch is turned to the “ON” position
or the operation mode is put in ON.
• The warning lamp illuminates while driving.
• The warning display operates while driving.
SRS servicing E00407901521 WARNING
l We
recommend any maintenance per-
formed on or near the components of the
SRS to be performed by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
Improper work on the SRS components
or wiring could result in inadvertent de-
ployment of the airbags, or could render
the SRS inoperative; either situation
could result in serious injury. WARNING
l Do
not modify your steering wheel, seat
belt retractor or any other SRS compo-
nents. For example, replacement of the
steering wheel, or modifications to the
front bumper or body structure can ad-
versely affect SRS performance and lead
to possible injury.
l If your vehicle has sustained any damage,
we recommend you to have the SRS in-
spected to ensure it is in proper working
order.
l On vehicles with the side airbags, do not
modify your front seats, centre pillar and
centre console.
It can adversely affect SRS performance
and lead to possible injury.
If you found any tear, scratch, crack or
damage to the seat fabric near the side air-
bag, the portion of the front and rear pil-
lars and roof side rail, you should have
the SRS inspected by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
NOTE l When

you transfer ownership of the vehicle
to some other person, we urge you to alert
the new owner that it is equipped with the
SRS and refer the new owner to the applica-
ble section in this owner’s manual.
l If your vehicle has to be scrapped, do this in
line with local legislation and contact a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point to safely dismantle the airbag system. Seat and seat belts
