the seat belt.

The seat belt pre-tensioner system includes the following com-
ponents:
The air bag control unit monitors the readiness of the electronic
parts of the system whenever the ignition switch is in the “ON”
or “START” position. These include all of the items listed
above and all related wiring.
The pre-tensioner seat belts will operate only when the ignition
switch is in the “ON” or “START” position.When the seat belt pre-tensioners activate, some smoke is
released and a loud noise will be heard. The smoke is not harm-
ful, but care should be taken not to intentionally inhale it, as it
may cause some temporary irritation to people with respiratory
problems.
Even in the event of a severe frontal impact, the pre-tensioners
will not operate if the seat belts are not fastened. The seat belt
pre-tensioners may not activate in certain frontal collisions,
even though the vehicle may appear to be severely damaged.
Such non-activation does not mean something is wrong with
the seat belt pre-tensioner system, but rather that the collision
forces were not severe enough or not of the type to activate the
system.1- SRS warning light
2- Front impact sensors
3- Seat belt pre-tensioners

5- Air bag control unit
WA R N I N G
!The seat belt pre-tensioner system is designed to
work only once. After the seat belt pre-tensioners
have been activated, they will not work again. They
must promptly be replaced and the entire seat belt
pre-tensioner system inspected by an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer.

The air bag control unit monitors the readiness of the electronic
parts of the system whenever the ignition switch is in the “ON”
or “START” position. These include all of the items listed
above and all related wiring.
The air bags will operate only when the ignition switch is in the
“ON” or “START” position. When the impact sensors detect a sufficient front or side impact
to deploy the air bag(s), the appropriate air bag(s) will be
deployed.
When air bags deploy, some smoke is released accompanied by
a loud noise. The smoke is not harmful, but do not intentionally
inhale the smoke as it may cause temporary irritation to people
with respiratory problems.
After deployment, the air bags will quickly deflate, so quickly
that some people may not even realize the air bags inflated.
Air bag inflation does not prevent the driver from seeing or
being able to steer the vehicle, and does not prevent people
from leaving the vehicle.9- Side air bag modules
10- Curtain air bag modules (ECLIPSE only)
11- Side impact sensors
CAUTION
!Air bags inflate very quickly and with great force. In
certain situations, contact with an inflating air bag
may cause small cuts, abrasions, and bruises.
