Seat adjustmentE00400300200
Adjust the driver’s seat so that you are comfortable
and that you can reach the pedals, steering wheel,
switches etc. while retaining a clear field of vision.WARNINGl Do not attempt to adjust the seat while
driving. This can cause loss of vehicle con-
trol and result in an accident. After ad-
justments are made, ensure the seating is
locked in position by attempting to move
the seat forward and rearward without us-
ing the adjusting mechanism.
l It is extremely dangerous to ride in the
cargo area (inside or outside) of a vehicle.
Also, the cargo area and rear seats should
never be used as a play area by children.
In a collision, people or children riding un-
restrained in these areas are more likely
to be seriously injured or killed.
Do not allow people or children to ride in
any area of your vehicle that is not equip-
ped with seats and seat belts, and make
sure that everyone travelling in your vehi-
cle is in a seat and wearing a seat belt, or
in the case of a child is strapped in a child
restraint.WARNINGl To minimize the risk of personal injury
in the event of a collision or sudden brak-
ing, the seatbacks should always be in the
almost upright position while the vehicle
is in motion. The protection provided by
the seat belts may be reduced significant-
ly when the seatback is reclined. There is
greater risk that the passenger will slide
under the seat belt, resulting in serious in-
jury, when the seatback is reclined.CAUTIONl Make sure the seat is adjusted by an
adult or with adult supervision for cor-
rect and safe operation.
l Do not place a cushion or the like be-
tween your back and the seatback while
driving. The effectiveness of the head re-
straints will be reduced in the event of an
accident.
l When sliding the seats, be careful not to
catch your hand or foot.
l When sliding or reclining the seat rear-
ward, pay careful attention to the rear
seat passengers. (Double cab and Club
cab)Front seat E0400400012To adjust forward or backward E00400500824
Manual type
Pull the seat adjusting lever and adjust the seat for-
ward or backward to the desired position. After ad-
justment, release the adjusting lever to lock the seat
in position.
WARNINGl To ensure the seat is locked securely, try
to move the seat forward or backward
without using the adjusting lever.

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.

Seat belt inspectionE00406300475
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.WARNINGl 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* E00407202273
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.WARNINGl 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-

WARNINGbags may not protect you properly, and
could cause serious or fatal injuries when
it inflates. •Before driving, adjust the driver’s
seat as far back as possible while still
maintaining complete control of the ve-
hicle.
• Before driving, adjust the front passen-
ger seat as far back as possible.
• Make sure all vehicle occupants are al-
ways properly restrained using the
available seat belts.
• With seat belts properly fastened, the
driver and passengers should sit well
back and upright without leaning
against the window or door.
l Do not sit on the edge of the seat, or lean
head or chest close to the steering wheel
or instrument panel.
Do not put feet or legs on or against the
instrument panel.WARNINGl Infants and small children should never
be unrestrained, stand up against the in-
strument panel or be held in your arms
or on your lap. They could be seriously in-
jured or killed in a collision, including
when the airbag inflates. They should be
properly seated in an appropriate child re-
straint system. See the “Child restraint”
section of this owner’s manual.WARNINGl 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.
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 2-29.)
