ESP MITSUBISHI GRANDIS 2010 Owner's Manual (in English)

Even when such parts are officially authorized, for
example
by a “general operators permit” (an ap-
praisal for the part) or through the execution of the
part in an officially approved manner of construc-
tion, or when a single operation permit following
the attachment or installation of such parts, it can-
not be deduced from that alone, that the driving safe-
ty of your vehicle has not been affected.
Consider also that there basically exists no liability
on the part of the appraiser or the official. Only in
the case of parts (MITSUBISHI MOTORS original
replacement or exchange parts as well as
MITSUBISHI MOTORS genuine accessories) that
are recommended and released by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point and that are at-
tached or installed by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point can you assume, that op-
timal safety has been provided. The same also per-
tains to modifications of MITSUBISHI vehicles
with respect to the production specifications. For
your own safety, in such cases as well, you should
only undertake modifications according to the rec-
ommendations of a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point. Modification/alterations to the

CAUTION
l
The safety mechanism is cancelled just be-
fore the window is fully closed. This al-
lows the window to close completely.
Therefore be especially careful that no fin-
gers are trapped in the window.
NOTE l The

safety mechanism can be activated if the
driving conditions or other circumstances
cause the door windows to be subjected to a
physical shock similar to that caused by a trap-
ped hand or head.
l If the safety mechanism is activated three or
more times in a row, the safety mechanism
will be cancelled and the door window will
not close correctly.
In such a case, the following procedure
should be implemented to rectify this situa-
tion. If the window is open, repeatedly raise
the appropriate window switch until that win-
dow has been fully closed. Following this, re-
lease the switch, raise the switch once again
and hold it in this condition for at least 1 sec-
ond, then release it. You should now be able
to operate all windows in the normal fashion. Sunroof*

roof switch is operated, release the switch
and check whether something is trapped by
the sunroof. If nothing is trapped, we recom-
mend you to have the sunroof checked.

roof carriers, the sunroof may make contact
with the carrier when the sunroof is tilted up.
Be careful when tilting up the sunroof if such
a ski carrier or a roof carrier is installed.
l Be sure to close the sunroof completely
when washing the vehicle or when leaving
the vehicle. l
Be
careful, not to put any wax on the weath-
erstrip (black rubber) around the sunroof
opening. If stained with wax, the weather-
strip cannot maintain a weatherproof seal
with the sunroof.

ward. (Refer to “To recline the seatback” on
page 2-10.) 6. Move
the front seats backward until they
touch the second seats. Lock them in that po-
sition. The flat seat configuration is now com-
plete.
To return the seats to their normal positions,
reverse the above procedure. NOTE

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

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.

WARNING
l Extreme Hazard!
Do
not use a rearward facing child re-
straint on a seat protected by an airbag in
front of it! How the Supplemental Restraint Sys-
tem works
E00407300935
The SRS includes the following components: 1. Airbag module (Driver)
2. Front

passenger’s airbag OFF indication lamp
3. Airbag module (Passenger)
4. Front impact sensors
5. Driver’s seat position sensor
6. Airbag control unit
7. Front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch 8. Side airbag modules
9.

Curtain airbag modules
10. Side impact sensors
The

airbags will operate only when the ignition
switch is in the “ON” or “START” position.

When the impact sensors detect an impact of suffi-
cient frontal or side force, an automated circuit ig-
nites materials in the inflator to generate gas and in-
flate the airbags.
The airbags deployment produces a sudden, loud
noise, and releases some smoke and powder, but
these conditions are not injurious, and do not indi-
cate a fire in the vehicle. People with respiratory
problems may feel some temporary irritation from
chemicals used to produce the deployment; open
the windows after airbag deployment, if safe to do
so.
The airbags deflate very rapidly after deployment,
so there is little danger of obscured vision.
The time required from the sensors detecting an im-
pact to deflation of the airbags after deployment is
shorter than a blink of an eye. CAUTION
l
Airbags
inflate at an extremely rapid
speed. In certain situations, contact with
inflating airbags can result in abrasions,
light cuts, bruises, and the like.
Driver’s seat position sensor E00409900166
In order to detect the fore-aft position of the driv-
er’s

seat, the driver’s seat position sensor is attach-
ed to the seat rail.
In the event of a problem in the driver’s seat posi-
tion sensor, the SRS warning lamp comes on. Seat and seat belts
