To install
Confirm that the head restraint is facing the correct
direction, and then insert it into the seatback while
pressing the height adjusting knob (A) in the direc-
tion indicated by the arrow.CAUTIONl Confirm that the height adjusting knob
(A) is correctly adjusted as shown in the
illustration, and also lift the head re-
straints to ensure that they do not come
out of the seatback.CAUTIONl If your vehicle is equipped with the rear
seat head restraint, the head restraints
for the front and rear seats differ in size.
When installing head restraints, make
sure the front and rear head restraints
are fitted in their respective seats.Seat belts E00404800825
To protect you and your passengers in the event of
an accident, it is most important that the seat belts
are worn correctly while driving.
A seat belt for a front seat equipped with an airbag
has a pretensioner system. These belts are used the
same way as a conventional seat belt.
Refer to “Seat belt pretensioner system and force
limiter system” on page 2-12 .WARNINGl 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.

WARNINGlNo 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’s airbag, adjust the driver’s seat
as far back as possible while maintaining
a position that still allows good visibility
and good control of the steering wheel,
the brake and accelerator, and vehicle con-
trols.
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 the child
in a collision or sudden stop.
l Always adjust the seat belt to a snug fit.3-point type seat belt (with emergency
locking mechanism) E00404901126
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.
NOTE l You can check if the belt locks by pulling it
forward quickly.
To fasten 1.Pull the seat belt out slowly while holding
the 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.WARNINGl 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.

Pregnant women restraintE00405600064WARNINGlSeat 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* E00405700283
The driver’s and front passenger’s seat equipped
with an airbag has a pretensioner seat belt.Pretensioner system E00405801089
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- Front impact sensors
2- Seat belt pretensioners
3- Airbag control unit
WARNINGl 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.CAUTIONl 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 them replaced by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.

Refer to “SRS warning lamp” on page 2-37.Force limiter systemE00406000078
In the event of a collision, each force limiter sys-
tem will effectively absorb the load applied to the
seat belt so as to minimize the impact to the passen-
ger.
Child restraint E00406401297
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.WARNINGl 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. (Double cab and
Club cab)
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.
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. (Double cab and Club cab)Caution for installing the child re-
straint on vehicles with a front passen-
ger airbag E00406500565
The label shown here is attached on vehicles with a
front passenger airbag.WARNINGl 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.

NOTEl 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 2-29.)
WARNINGl A FORWARD FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT should not be used in the front
passenger seat whenever possible; if used
in the front passenger seat, adjust the
seat to the most rearward position.Infants and small children E00406600768
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.
l Before purchasing a child restraint system,
try installing it in the 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.WARNINGl 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 the 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.
