WA R N I N G
!In order to reduce the risk of serious injury or death
in an accident, always wear your own seat belt. Do
not allow anyone to ride in your vehicle unless he or
she is also seated and wearing a seat belt. Children
should additionally be restrained in a secure child
restraint system.

6. Open the cover from the tether anchor installation point
by pulling it back with your hand as illustrated below (6).
7. Latch the tether strap hook (A) of the child restraint sys-
tem to the tether anchor (B) as illustrated below (7) and
tighten the top tether strap so it is securely fastened.
8. Before putting your child in the restraint, push and pull
the restraint in all directions to be sure it is firmly secure.
Do this before each use. If the child restraint system is not
firmly secure, repeat steps 1 through 7.9. To remove a child restraint system from the vehicle and
deactivate the ALR mode, remove the child from the
restraint. Unlatch the buckle. Then remove the belt from
the restraint and let the belt fully retract.
Children who have outgrown child restraint sys-
tems
N00407600562
Children who have outgrown a child restraint system should be
seated in the rear seat and wear the seat belt. If the shoulder
belt crosses their face or neck, and/or the lap belt crosses their
stomach, a commercially available booster seat (including a
booster cushion) must be used, to raise the child so that the
shoulder belt crosses their shoulder and the lap belt remains
positioned low across their hips. The booster seat (including a
booster cushion) should fit the vehicle seat and have a label
certifying compliance with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Stan-
dards or Motor Vehicle Restraint Systems and Booster Cush-
ions Safety Regulations.
WA R N I N G
!Child restraint tether anchors are designed only to
withstand loads from correctly fitted child restraint
systems. Under no circumstances are they to be used
for adult seat belts, or harnesses, or for attaching
other items or equipment to the vehicle.
WA R N I N G
!Any child who is too small to properly wear a seat
belt must be properly restrained in an appropriate
child restraint system, to reduce their risk of serious
injury or death in an accident.A child should never be left unattended in, or unsu-
pervised, around your vehicle. When you leave the
vehicle always take the child out as well.Children can die from heat stroke if left or trapped
inside the vehicle, especially on hot days.Keep your vehicle locked and the trunk lid closed
when not in use. Keep your vehicle keys away from
children.

Passenger’s seat weight sensors
N00418000087
The passenger’s seat weight sensors are attached to the seat
rails and provide the air bag control unit with information
regarding the weight on the front passenger seat. The air bag
control unit controls deployment of the passenger’s front air
bag in accordance with the information it receives from this
sensor.
The passenger’s front air bag will not deploy in an impact
when the weight on the seat is sensed to be less than approxi-
mately 66 pounds (30 kg). In this case, the passenger’s air bag
off indicator will come on.
Refer to “Passenger’s air bag off indicator” on page 2-45.
If there is a problem involving the passenger’s seat weight sen-
sors, the SRS warning light in the instrument panel will come
on. Refer to “SRS warning light” page 2-46.
WA R N I N G
!If any of the following conditions occur, you should
immediately have your vehicle inspected by an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer as soon as pos-
sible:
• The SRS warning light does not initially come on
when the ignition key is turned to the “ON” or
“START” position.
• The SRS warning light does not go out after sev-
eral seconds.
• The SRS warning light comes on while you are
driving.
To ensure that the passenger’s seat weight sensors
can correctly sense the weight being applied to the
seat, observe the following instructions. Failure to
follow these instructions can adversely affect the
performance of the passenger’s air bag system.
• Adjust the seat to the correct position, and sit well
back against the seatback.
Refer to “Front seat” on page 2-4.
• Do not recline the seatback more than necessary.
• Never have more than one person (adult or child)
sitting on the seat.
• Do not place anything between the seat and the
floor console.
• Do not hang anything on the front passenger’s
seatback.
• Do not remove the head restraints.
• When attaching a child restraint system, secure it
firmly.
• Do not place luggage or other objects on the seat.
• Do not use a seat cover or a cushion.
• Do not modify or replace the seat and seat belt.
• Do not place luggage or other objects under the
seat.
• Do not place the floor mat on the seat rails.
• Do not expose the sensors to liquids or vapors.
• Do not subject the sensors to shock.
• Do not allow rear-seat occupants to push the front
passenger seat with their feet or force the front
passenger seat upward.
• Do not allow rear-seat occupants to grasp the front
passenger’s seatback or put their arms around it.
• When attaching a child restraint system in the rear
seat, make sure it does not interfere with the front
seat.WA R N I N G

SRS warning light
N00408300104
There is a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) warning light
on the instrument panel. The system checks itself each time the
ignition is turned on.
When the ignition key is in the “ON” or “START” position, the
SRS warning light should come on for several seconds and
then go out. This means the system is working properly.
If there is a problem involving one or more of the SRS compo-
nents, the warning light will come on and stay on.
The SRS warning light is shared by the Supplemental Restraint
System (SRS) and the seat belt pre-tensioner system.
WA R N I N G
!If any of the following conditions occur, you should
immediately have the air bag system in your vehicle
inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer as soon as possible:
• The passenger’s air bag off indicator comes on
when an adult is sitting on the front passenger
seat.
• The passenger’s air bag off indicator does not
come on when the front passenger’s seat is not
occupied.
• The passenger’s air bag off indicator does not
come on when the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position.
• The passenger’s air bag off indicator comes on and
goes out repeatedly.
Do not attach any accessory to your vehicle that
makes the passenger’s air bag off indicator difficult
or impossible to see.
You must be able to see the passenger’s air bag off
indicator and verify the status of the passenger’s air
bag system.
