Seat belt inspection
E00406300475
l Check
the belts for cuts, worn or frayed web-
bing and for cracked or deformed metallic
parts. Replace the belt assembly if defective.
l A dirty belt should be cleaned with neutral de-
tergent in warm water. After rinsing in water,
let it dry in the shade. Do not attempt to
bleach or re-dye the belts because this affects
their characteristics. WARNING
l We
recommend you have all seat belt as-
semblies including retractors and attach-
ing hardware inspected after any colli-
sion. We recommend that seat belt assem-
blies in use during a collision be replaced
unless the collision was minor and the
belts show no damage and continue to op-
erate properly.
l Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of the seat belt assemblies; we recom-
mend you to have this work done by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point. Incorrect repair or replace-
ment could reduce the effectiveness of the
belts and could result in serious injury in
the event of a collision.
l Once the pretensioner has activated, it
cannot be re-used.
It must be replaced together with the re-
tractor. Supplemental restraint system
(SRS) - airbag* E00407201797
The

information written in this Supplemental Re-
straint System (SRS) section contains important
points concerning the driver, front passenger, side
and curtain airbags.
The SRS driver and front passenger airbags are de-
signed to supplement the primary protection of the
driver and front passenger side seat belt systems by
providing those occupants with protection against
head and chest injuries in certain moderate-to-se-
vere frontal collisions.

The SRS side airbag is designed to supplement the
properly worn seat belts and provide the driver and
front passenger with protection against chest injury
in certain moderate-to-severe side impact collisions.

The SRS curtain airbags are designed to supple-
ment the properly worn seat belts and provide the
driver and passengers with protection against head
injuries in certain moderate-to-severe side impact
collisions.

The SRS is NOT a substitute for the seat belts; for
maximum protection in all types of crashes and ac-
cidents, seat belts should ALWAYS be worn by ev-
eryone who drives or rides in this vehicle. WARNING
l IT
IS VERY IMPORTANT TO AL-
WAYS PROPERLY WEAR YOUR
SEAT BELT, EVEN WITH AN AIRBAG: WARNING
• Seat
belts help keep the driver and pas- sengers properly positioned, which re-
duces injury risk in all collisions, and
reduces the risk of serious or fatal in-
juries when the airbags inflate.
During sudden braking just before a
collision, an unrestrained or improper-
ly restrained driver or passengers can
move forward into direct contact with
or within close proximity to the airbag
which may then deploy during the col-
lision.
The initial stage of airbag inflation is
the most forceful which could cause se-
rious or fatal injuries if the occupant
contacts it at this stage.
• Seat belts reduce the risk of injury in roll-overs, rear impact collisions, and
in lower-speed frontal collisions, be-
cause driver’s and passenger’s air-
bags are not designed to inflate in
those situations.
• Seat belts reduce the risk of being thrown from your vehicle in a colli-
sion or roll-over.
l IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO BE PROP-
ERLY SEATED.
A driver or front passenger too close to
the steering wheel or instrument panel
during airbag deployment can be killed
or seriously injured.
Airbags inflate very fast, and with great
force.
If the driver and front passenger are not
properly seated and restrained, the air- Seat and seat belts

That airbag will remain OFF, and will NOT de-
ploy, until it is turned ON again.
WARNING
l To reduce risk of serious or fatal injury:
• If the indication lamp does not come
on when the front passenger’s airbag
ON-OFF switch is turned OFF, do not
fit a rearward facing child restraint
system to the front passenger seat.
• Do not turn OFF the front passen- ger’s airbag ON-OFF switch except
when a rearward facing child re-
straint system is fitted to the front pas-
senger seat.
To turn an airbag on E00410700106
To turn an airbag on, follow these steps:
1. Insert
the key into the key opening of the ap-
propriate front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF
switch, and turn that airbag ON-OFF switch
to “ON” position.
2. Remove the key from the key opening of that front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch. 3. Insert
the key into the ignition switch, and
turn the ignition to the “ON” position. The front passenger’s airbag OFF indication lamp
goes

off to show that the front passenger’s airbag is
operational.

That airbag will remain ON, and will be ready to
deploy, until it is again turned OFF. WARNING
l To reduce risk of serious or fatal injury:
• Turn
ON the front passenger’s airbag
ON-OFF switch immediately after re-
moving a rearward facing child re-
straint system from the front passen-
ger seat.
• If the indication lamp remains on when the front passenger’s airbag
ON-OFF switch is turned ON, do not
allow anyone to sit on the front passen-
ger seat. Front passenger’s airbag OFF indica-
tion lamp
E00410200257
The

front passenger’s airbag OFF indication lamp
is located in the instrument panel. When the front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch
is

turned OFF, the indication lamp will stay on to
show that the front passenger’s airbag is not opera-
tional.
When the front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch
is turned ON, the indication lamp goes off to show
that the front passenger’s airbag is operational. WARNING
l If
the indication lamp behaves in any of
the following ways, there may be a fault
in the airbag system.
Have the vehicle inspected at a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point as soon as possible. Seat and seat belts

WARNING
l Right after the airbag inflation, several
airbag system components will be hot. Do
not touch them; you could be burned.
l The airbag system is designed to work on-
ly once. Once the airbags have deployed,
they will not work again. They must
promptly be replaced, and we recom-
mend you to have the entire airbag sys-
tem inspected by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
Side airbag system E00407600374
The side airbags (A) are contained in the driver and
front passenger seatbacks.
The

side airbag is designed to inflate only on the
side of the vehicle that is impacted, even with no
passenger in the front seat. The label shown here is attached to the seatbacks
with a side airbag.
Curtain airbag system
E00409100474
The curtain airbags are contained in the front pil-
lars

and roof side rail. The curtain airbag is de-
signed to inflate only on the side of the vehicle that
is impacted, even with no passenger in the front
seat or rear seat. Deployment of side airbags and cur-
tain airbags
E00407701011
The side airbags and curtain airbags ARE DE-
SIGNED TO DEPLOY when…
The

side airbags and curtain airbags are designed
to deploy when the vehicle suffers a moderate-to-
severe side impact to the middle of the passenger
compartment.
The typical condition is shown in the illustration. The seat belts in your vehicle are your primary
means

of protection in a collision. The SRS side air-
bags and curtain airbags are designed to provide ad-
ditional protection. Therefore, for your safety and
the safety of all occupants, be sure to always prop-
erly wear your seat belts. Seat and seat belts

WARNING
l Do not attach a microphone (A) or any
other device or object around the part
where the curtain airbags (B) activate
such as on the windscreen, side door
glass, front and rear pillars and roof side
or assist grips. When the curtain airbags
inflate, the microphone or other device or
object will be hurled with great force or
the curtain airbags may not activate cor-
rectly, resulting in death or serious injury. WARNING
l Do not put a hanger or any heavy or poin-
ted object on the coat hook.
If the curtain airbag was activated, any
such item could be propelled away with
great force and could prevent the curtain
airbag from inflating correctly. Hang
clothes directly on the coat hook (without
using a hanger).
Make sure there are no heavy or sharp ob-
jects in the pockets of clothes that you
hang on the coat hook.
l Do not allow a child to lean against or
close to the front door even if the child is
seated in a child restraint system.
The child’s head should also not be
leaned against or be close to the area of
the seat where the side airbag and cur-
tain airbag are located. It is dangerous if
the side airbag and curtain airbag inflate.
Failure to follow all of these instructions
could lead to serious or fatal injury to the
child.
l We recommend work around and on the
side airbags and curtain airbags system
to be done by MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point. Improper
work could result in inadvertent deploy-
ment of a side airbags and curtain air-
bags, or could render a side airbags and
curtain airbags inoperative; either situa-
tion could result in serious injury. SRS warning lamp
E00407801201
There

is a Supplemental Restraint System (“SRS”)
warning lamp on the instrument panel. The system
checks itself and the lamp tells you if there is a prob-
lem. When the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” or “START” position, the warning lamp
should illuminate for several seconds and then
should go out. This means the system is ready. If
an SRS airbag or pretensioner seat belt is not oper-
ating properly, the warning lamp comes on and
stays on.
The SRS warning lamp is shared by the SRS airbag
and the seat belt pretensioner system. WARNING
l If
any of the following conditions occur,
the SRS and/or seat belt pretensioners
are not working properly, and we recom-
mend you to have it inspected by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point immediately. Seat and seat belts

SRS servicing E00407901244WARNING
l We
recommend any maintenance per-
formed on or near the components of the
SRS to be performed by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
Improper work on the SRS components
or wiring could result in inadvertent de-
ployment of the airbags, or could render
the SRS inoperative; either situation
could result in serious injury.
l Do not modify your steering wheel, seat
belt retractor or any other SRS compo-
nents. For example, replacement of the
steering wheel, or modifications to the
front bumper or body structure can ad-
versely affect SRS performance and lead
to possible injury.
l If your vehicle has sustained any damage,
we recommend you to have the SRS in-
spected to ensure it is in proper working
order. WARNING
l On
vehicles equipped with side airbags,
do not modify your front seats, centre pil-
lar and centre console.
It can adversely affect SRS performance
and lead to possible injury.
Also, if you have found any tear or open
seam in the seat fabric at the portion near
the side airbag, we recommend you to
have the seat inspected.
l On vehicles with the curtain airbags, if
you have found any scratch, crack or dam-
age to the portion of the front and rear pil-
lars and roof side rail, we recommend
you to have the SRS inspected by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point.
NOTE l When

you transfer ownership of the vehicle
to some other person, we urge you to alert
the new owner that it is equipped with the
SRS and refer the new owner to the applica-
ble section in this owner’s manual.
l If you junk or scrap the vehicle, we urge you
to first take the vehicle to a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point so that
the SRS can be rendered safe. Seat and seat belts
