Seat belt pretensioner system and
force limiter system E00405700166
The
driver’s seat and front passenger’s seat each
have a seat belt equipped with a pretensioner system.
Pretensioner system E00405801164
The pretensioner system will retract its respective
seat

belts instantaneously, thus maximizing the seat
belt’s effectiveness, if there is a frontal impact se-
vere enough to injure the driver and/or front passen-
ger and the electric motor switch is in the “ON” or
“START” position. 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. CAUTION
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 them replaced by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
SRS warning lamp E00405900315
This warning lamp is shared by the SRS airbags
and

the pretensioner seat belts. Refer to “SRS warn-
ing lamp” on page 3-29.
Force limiter system E00406000209
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
E00406401747
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 the child.
l Each child restraint device or fixing is to
be used only by one child. Seat and seat belts

Caution for installing the child re-
straint on vehicles with a front passen-
ger airbag
E00406500318
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! Use rearward facing child restraints in the rear seat
or

turn off the front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF
switch. (Refer to “To turn an airbag off” on page
3-23)
Front passenger’s airbag ON WARNING
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 must only be used
in the rear seat.
l A FORWARD FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT should be used in the rear seat
whenever possible; if used in the front
seat, turn off the front passenger’s airbag
ON-OFF switch. Infants and small children
E00406600999
When

transporting infants and small children in
your vehicle, follow the instruction given below. Instruction:
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 the child’s weight and height and prop-
erly fit in the vehicle. For a higher degree of
safety: THE CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
SHOULD BE INSTALLED IN THE REAR
SEAT. Seat and seat belts
