only be carried out within the limits prescribed by law in
the driving area and in accordance with the guidelines and
warnings contained within the documents accompanying
this vehicle.
Only Mitsubishi Motors approved accessories should be
fitted to your vehicle.

Improper installation of electrical parts could cause fire.
Refer to the “Modification/alteration to the electrical or
fuel systems” section within this owner’s manual.

Using a cellular phone or radio set inside the vehicle with-
out an external antenna may cause electrical system inter-
ference, which could lead to unsafe vehicle operation.

Tires and wheels which do not meet specifications must
not be used.
Refer to the “Specifications” section for information
regarding wheel and tire sizes.

When fitting accessories, ensure that maximum gross
vehicle weight and maximum axle weight are not
exceeded.
Important point!Due to the large number of accessory and replacement parts
provided by different manufacturers in the market, it is not
always possible for an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer to
check whether the attachment or installation of non-Mitsubishi
Motors genuine parts will affect the driving safety of your Mit-
subishi vehicle.
CAUTION
!
Before any electrical or electronic accessories are
installed, consult an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer.

ing side air bag, do not allow any rear seat passen-
gers to hold onto the back of either front seat.

interface system with voice recognition
(if so
equipped)N00506400102
The Hands-free Bluetooth
® cellular phone interface system
with voice recognition (Bluetooth
® HFP) uses a wireless com-
munication technology known as Bluetooth
® to allow you to
make hands-free calls in your vehicle using your Bluetooth
®
compatible cellular phone with Hands-free profile.
The system is equipped with a voice recognition function,
which lets you make hands-free calls by simple switch opera-
tions and voice command operations using a defined voice tree.
The Bluetooth
® HFP can be used when the ignition switch is in
the “ON” or “ACC” position.
To use the Bluetooth
® HFP, you should first connect your
Bluetooth
® compatible cellular phone to the Bluetooth
® HFP.
Refer to “Pairing a cellular phone” on page 3-100.
Bluetooth
® is a registered trademark of BLUETOOTH SIG,
INC.
NOTE
You cannot use the Bluetooth
® HFP if your cellular phone
has a dead battery or is turned off.

Hands-free calls will not be possible in areas outside your
cellular phone service area or locations where a signal
cannot reach your phone.
WA R N I N G

Anything, including cellular phone usage, that dis-
tracts you from the safe operation of your vehicle
increases your risk of an accident. Refer to and fol-
low all state and local laws in your area regarding
