l You 
can  store  the  head  restraints  (A)  re-
moved from the second seat (except the mid-
dle  seating  position)  by  inserting  their  rods
between  the  tipped  third  seat  and  the  wall  of
the luggage area on the right side. l
The 
 head  restraints  (B)  removed  from  the
third seat and the second seat (the middle seat-
ing  position)  can  be  fitted  together  and  stor-
ed in the cargo net in the luggage area. Seat belts
E00404800593
To 
protect you and your passengers in the event of
an  accident,  it  is  most  important  that  the  seat  belts
be worn correctly while driving.
The  front  seat  belts  have  a  pretensioner  system.
These belts are used the same way as a convention-
al seat belt.
Refer  to  “Seat  belt  pretensioner  system  and  force
limiter system” on page 2-20 . WARNING
l Always 
 place  the  shoulder  belt  over  your
shoulder  and  across  your  chest.  Never
put it behind you or under your arm.
l One  seat  belt  should  be  used  by  only  one
person.
Doing otherwise can be dangerous.
l The  seat  belt  will  provide  its  wearer  with
maximum  protection  if  the  recliner  seat-
back  is  placed  in  fully  upright  position.
When  the  seatback  is  reclined,  there  is
greater  risk  that  the  passenger  will  slide
under the belt, especially in a forward im-
pact  accident,  and  may  be  injured  by  the
belt  or  by  striking  the  instrument  panel
or seatbacks.
l Seat  belts  should  always  be  worn  by  ev-
ery adult who drives or rides in this vehi-
cle,  and  by  all  children  who  are  tall
enough to wear seat belts properly.
l Remove any twists when using the belt. Seat and seat belts

WARNING
l No  modifications  or  additions  should  be
made  by  the  user  which  will  either  pre-
vent  the  seat  belt  adjusting  devices  from
operating to remove slack, or prevent the
seat belt assembly from being adjusted to
remove slack.
l To  reduce  risk  of  serious  or  fatal  injury
in  an  accident,  including  the  deploying
driver  airbag,  the  driver  should  adjust
the driver’s seat to the rear most position
that  still  allows  good  visibility  and  good
control  of  the  steering  wheel,  the  brake
and accelerator, and vehicle controls.
l Never  hold  a  child  in  your  arms  or  on
your lap when riding in this vehicle, even
if  you  are  wearing  your  seat  belt.  To  do
so  risks  severe  or  fatal  injury  to  your
child in a collision or sudden stop.
l Always adjust the belt to a snug fit. 3-point type seat belt (with emergency
locking mechanism)
E00404900754
This 
type  of  belt  requires  no  length  adjustment.
Once  worn,  the  belt  adjusts  itself  to  the  movement
of the wearer, but in the event of a sudden or strong
shock, the belt automatically locks to hold the wear-
er’s body.
To fasten
1. Pull  the  seat  belt  out  slowly  while  holdingthe latch plate.
NOTE l When the seat belts cannot be pulled out in a
locked condition, pull the belts once forceful-
ly  and  then  return  them.  After  that,  pull  the
belts out slowly once again.
2. Insert  the  latch  plate  into  the  buckle  until  a “click” is heard. WARNING
l Never 
 wear  the  lap  portion  of  the  belt
across your abdomen. During accidents it
can  press  sharply  against  the  abdomen
and increase the risk of injury.
l The  seat  belts  must  not  be  twisted  when
worn.
3. Pull 
the belt slightly to adjust slackness as de- sired.
To unfasten
Hold the latch plate and push the button on the buck-
le. NOTE
l As 
the belt retracts automatically, keep hold-
ing the latch plate while retracting so that the
belt  stows  slowly.  Failure  to  do  this  could
damage the vehicle. Seat and seat belts

Seat belt reminder/warning lamp
E00409800774
A 
tone  and  warning  lamp  are  used  to  remind  the
driver to fasten the seat belt.
NOTE
l For the front passenger seat, the warning func-
tion  works  only  while  a  person  is  sitting  on
the seat. When  the  ignition  key  is  turned  to  the  “ON”  posi-
tion, 
the  warning  lamp  will  illuminate  and  a  tone
will  sound  for  about  6  seconds.  If  the  driver’s  seat
belt  remains  unfastened  for  approximately
1 minute later, the warning lamp will flash and the
tone sound intermittently (each 12 times) when the
vehicle  is  driven.  If  the  driver  subsequently  unfas-
tens  the  seat  belt  while  driving,  the  warning  lamp
and  tone  will  issue  further  warnings.  And  if  the
seat belt remains unfastened, the warning lamp and
tone will issue further warnings each time the vehi-
cle starts moving from a stop. When the seat belt is
fastened, the warnings will stop. WARNING
l In 
 order to reduce the risk of serious or fa-
tal  injury  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.  Chil-
dren  should  additionally  be  restrained  in
a secure child restraint system.
NOTE l When 
luggage  is  placed  on  the  front  passen-
ger seat, a sensor in the seat cushion may, de-
pending on the weight and position of the lug-
gage,  cause  the  warning  tone  to  sound  and
the warning lamp to come on.
Adjustable seat belt anchor (front
seats) E00405000433
The seat belt anchor height can be adjusted.
Move 
the  seat  belt  anchor  (A)  down  with  the  lock
knob  (B)  depressed.  To  move  the  anchor  up,  slide
it without depressing the lock knob. WARNING
l When 
 adjusting  the  seat  belt  anchor,  set
it  at  a  position  that  is  sufficiently  high  so
that  the  belt  will  make  full  contact  with
your shoulder but will not touch your neck.
l Adjust  the  shoulder  belt  anchor  only
when the vehicle is not in motion.
l Make  sure  the  anchor  is  securely  locked
in position after adjusting it.
Rear seat belt storage E00405300393
When  the  second  (except  centre)  and  third  seat
belts 
are not in use, store them as shown in the illus-
trations.
The  openings  in  the  front  and  rear  of  the  holders
(A) can be used for storage. Seat and seat belts

sert the plate into the front notch (C).
Insert the third seat’s buckle into the pocket on the
seat cushion. Pregnant women restraint
E00405600123 WARNING
l Seat  belts  work  for  everyone,  including
pregnant  women.  Pregnant  women
should  use  the  available  seat  belts.  This
will  reduce  the  likelihood  of  injury  to
both  the  woman  and  the  unborn  child.
The  lap  belt  should  be  worn  across  the
thighs and as snug against the hips as pos-
sible,  but  not  across  the  waist.  Consult
your  doctor  if  you  have  any  additional
questions or concerns. Seat belt pretensioner system and
force limiter system E00405700052
The 
driver’s  seat  and  front  passenger’s  seat  each
have a seat belt equipped with a pretensioner system.
Pretensioner system E00405801034
The  pretensioner  system  will  retract  their  respec-
tive 
seat belts instantaneously, thus maximizing the
seat belt’s effectiveness, if there is a frontal impact
severe enough to injure the driver and/or front pas-
senger  and  the  ignition  switch  is  in  the  “ON”  or
“START” position.
The  seat  belt  pretensioner  includes  the  following
components: 1- Airbag control unit
2-
Front impact sensors
3- Seat belt pretensioners Seat and seat belts

WARNING
l To  obtain  the  best  results  from  your  pre-
tensioner seat belt, make sure you have ad-
justed  your  seat  correctly  and  wear  your
seat belt properly. CAUTION
l
Installation 
 of  audio  equipment  or  re-
pairs  in  the  vicinity  of  the  pretensioner
seat  belts  or  floor  console  must  be  per-
formed  in  line  with  MITSUBISHI
MOTORS  guidelines.  It  is  important  to
do  so  because  the  work  could  affect  the
pretensioner systems.
l If you need to scrap the vehicle, please con-
sult  a  MITSUBISHI  MOTORS  Author-
ized  Service  Point.  It  is  important  to  do
so  because  unexpected  activation  of  the
pretensioner  seat  belts  could  cause  inju-
ries.
NOTE l The 
pretensioner  seat  belts  will  be  activated
if  the  vehicle  suffers  a  severe  frontal  impact,
even if the seat belts are not worn.
l The  pretensioner  seat  belts  are  designed  to
work  only  once.  After  the  pretensioner  seat
belts  have  been  activated,  we  recommend
you  have  it  replaced  by  a  MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point. SRS warning lamp
E00405900038
This 
warning  lamp  is  shared  by  the  SRS  airbags
and the pretensioner seat belts. Refer to “SRS warn-
ing lamp” on page 2-42.
Force limiter system E00406000023
In  the  event  of  a  collision,  each  force  limiter  sys-
tem 
will  effectively  absorb  the  load  applied  to  the
seat belt to minimize the impact to the passenger. Child restraint
E00406401532
When 
transporting  children  in  your  vehicle,  some
type  of  child  restraint  system  should  always  be
used  according  to  the  size  of  the  child.  This  is  re-
quired by law in most countries.
The regulations concerning driving with children in
the  front  seat  may  differ  from  country  to  country.
You are advised to comply with the relevant regula-
tions. WARNING
l When 
 possible,  put  children  in  the  rear
seat. Accident statistics indicate that chil-
dren  of  all  sizes  and  ages  are  safer  when
properly  restrained  in  the  rear  seat  rath-
er than in the front seat.
l Holding a child in your arms is no substi-
tute  for  a  restraint  system.  Failure  to  use
a proper restraint system can result in se-
vere or fatal injury to your child.
l Each  child  restraint  device  or  fixing  is  to
be used only by one child.
l When  attaching  a  child  restraint  to  the
rear seat, place the front seatbacks in the
upright position.
Otherwise, the child could be seriously in-
jured in the event of hard braking or a col-
lision. Seat and seat belts

Caution for installing the child re-
straint on vehicles with a front passen-
ger airbag
The 
label shown here is attached on vehicles with a
front passenger airbag. WARNING
l Extreme Hazard!
Do 
not  use  a  rearward  facing  child  re-
straint on a seat protected by an airbag in
front of it!
l A  REARWARD  FACING  CHILD  RE-
STRAINT must NOT be used in the front
passenger seat if the front passenger’s air-
bag  has  not  been  deactivated.  The  force
of  an  inflating  airbag  could  kill  or  cause
serious  injuries  to  the  child.  A  rearward
facing  child  restraint  should  be  used  in
the rear seat.
Front passenger’s airbag ON NOTE
l If 
you  have  a  rearward  facing  child  restraint
system that cannot be fitted to any seat other
than  the  front  passenger  seat,  be  sure  to  turn
OFF  the  front  passenger’s  airbag  ON-OFF
switch  before  using  it.  (Refer  to  “To  turn  an
airbag off” on page 2-33.)
Front passenger’s air bag OFF WARNING
l A 
 FORWARD  FACING  CHILD  RE-
STRAINT should be used in the rear seat
whenever  possible;  if  used  in  the  front
seat, adjust the seat to the most rearward
position. Infants and small children
E00406600579
When  transporting  infants  and  small  children  in
your vehicle, follow the instructions given below. Seat and seat belts

Instructions:
l For 
small  infants,  an  infant  carrier  should  be
used.  For  small  children  whose  height  when
seated  allows  the  shoulder  belt  to  lie  in  con-
tact  with  the  face  or  the  throat,  a  child  seat
should be used.
l The child restraint system should be appropri-
ate  for  your  child’s  weight  and  height  and
properly  fit  in  the  vehicle.  For  a  higher  de-
gree  of  safety:  THE  CHILD  RESTRAINT
SYSTEM  SHOULD  BE  INSTALLED  IN
THE REAR SEAT. WARNING
l When 
 installing  a  child  restraint  system,
refer  to  the  instructions  provided  by  the
manufacturer of the restraint system. Fail-
ure  to  do  so  can  result  in  severe  or  fatal
injury to your child.
l After installation, push and pull the child
restraint  system  back  and  forth,  and  side
to  side,  to  see  that  it  is  properly  secured.
If  the  child  restraint  system  is  not  instal-
led  securely,  it  may  cause  injury  to  the
child or other occupants in the case of ac-
cident or sudden stops.
l When  the  child  restraint  system  is  not  in
use,  keep  your  child  or  infant  seat  se-
cured with the seat belt or remove it from
the  vehicle  in  order  to  prevent  injury  to
your child.
NOTE l Before 
purchasing  a  child  restraint  system,
try  installing  it  in  the  rear  seat  to  make  sure there is a good fit. Because of the location of
the 
seat belt buckles and the shape of the seat
cushion, it may be difficult to securely install
some manufacturer’s child restraint systems.
If the child restraint system can be pulled for-
ward or to either side easily on the seat cush-
ion  after  the  seat  belt  has  been  tightened,
choose another manufacturer’s child restraint
system.
 
Depending  on  the  seating  position  in  the  ve-
hicle  and  the  child  restraint  system  that  you
have,  the  child  restraint  can  be  attached  us-
ing one of the following 2 locations: • To  the  lower  anchorage  in  the  rear  seat,ONLY  if  the  child  restraint  has  ISOFIX
mountings (See page 2-27).
• To the seat belt (See page 2-28).
Older children E00406700192
Children who have outgrown the child restraint sys-
tem should be seated in the rear seat and wear com-
bination lap shoulder belt.
The lap portion of the belt should be snug and posi-
tioned 
low  on  the  abdomen  so  that  it  is  below  the
top  of  the  hip-bone.  Otherwise,  the  belt  could  in-
trude  into  the  child’s  abdomen  during  an  accident
and cause injury. WARNING
l Children 
 who  are  not  buckled  up  can  be
thrown out of the vehicle in an accident.
l Children  who  are  not  buckled  up  can
strike other people in the vehicle in an ac-
cident. WARNING
l A 
 child  should  never  be  left  unattended
in your vehicle. When you leave the vehi-
cle, take the child with you. Seat and seat belts
