NOTElWhen luggage is placed on the front passen-
ger  seat,  a  sensor  in  the  seat  cushion  may,
depending  on  the  weight  and  position  of  the
luggage,  cause  the  warning  tone  to  sound and the warning lamp to come on. (Club cab
and Double cab)For the rear passenger’s seats*
E00415501047
*-This  warning  lamp  shows  the
case of the 5-passenger vehicles.
 
If  the  ignition  switch  is  turned  to  the  “ON”
position  or  the  operation  mode  is  put  in  ON while  a  seat  belt  is  not  fastened,  the  warning
lamp comes on for approximately 30 seconds to remind the rear passenger to fasten the seatbelt.
If  the  vehicle  is  driven  with  the  seat  belt  still
unfastened,  the  warning  lamps  come  on  for
approximately another 30 seconds. (This illu-
mination happens only the first time the vehi- cle  starts  moving  with  the  seat  belt  still  un-
fastened.)
The  warning  lamps  go  off  when  the  seat  belt is fastened.WARNINGl Do  not  install  any  accessory  or  sticker
that makes the lamp difficult to see.NOTEl The  warning  lamp  comes  on  even  if  no  one
is sitting on the rear seats.
l If  a  seat  belt  is  unfastened  while  the  vehicle
is being driven, the tone sounds for approxi- mately  1  second  and  the  warning  lampcomes  on  for  approximately  30  seconds.  At the same time, the warning lamp for the seat
where the seat belt is not fastened comes on.
l If  the  seat  belts  are  initially  fastened  but  a
seat  belt  is  unfastened  while  the  vehicle  is
stationary and the vehicle is then driven with the  seat  belt  still  unfastened,  the  warning
lamp  comes  on  again  for  approximately  30 seconds.Adjustable seat belt anchor

E00405001720
The seat belt anchor height can be adjusted.
To  move  the  anchor,  pull  the  lock  knob  (A) and  slide  the  anchor  to  the  desired  position.
Release the lock knob to lock the anchor into
position.
WARNINGl When adjusting the seat belt anchor, set it
at  a  position  that  is  sufficiently  high  so
that  the  belt  will  make  full  contact  with your  shoulder  but  will  not  touch  your
neck.

WARNINGlWe  recommend  you  to  have  all  seat  belt
assemblies  including  retractors  and  at-
taching  hardware  inspected  after  any  col- lision.  We  recommend  that  seat  belt  as- semblies  in  use  during  a  collision  be  re-
placed  unless  the  collision  was  minor  and
the belts show no damage and continue to operate 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  been  activated,
it cannot be re-used.
It  must  be  replaced  together  with  the  re- tractor.WARNINGl Do  not  insert  any  foreign  objects  (pieces
of plastic, paper clips, buttons, etc.) in the
buckle  or  retractor  mechanism.  In  addi- tion,  do  not  modify,  remove  or  install  the
seat belt. Otherwise, the seat belt may not be  able  to  provide  adequate  protection  in a collision or other situation.
l A  dirty  belt  should  be  cleaned  with  neu-
tral  detergent  in  warm  water.  After  rins-
ing in water, let it dry in the shade. Do not
attempt  to  bleach  or  re-dye  the  belts  be-
cause this will affect their characteristics.
Supplemental restraint
system (SRS)-airbag* E00407203573
The information for SRS airbags includes im-
portant  information  concerning  the  driver’s and  front  passenger’s  airbags,  the  driver’s knee  airbag,  the  side  airbags  and  the  curtain
airbags.
 
The  SRS  driver’s  and  front  passenger’s  air-
bags  are  designed  to  supplement  the  primary
protection  of  the  driver  and  front  passenger
side  seat  belt  systems  by  providing  those  oc- cupants  with  protection  against  head  and
chest  injuries  in  certain  moderate-to-severe frontal collisions.
 
The  SRS  driver  airbag  employ  a  dual  stage
airbag  system  (if  so  equipped).  The  SRS
driver  and  front  passenger  airbag  is  control- led  by  the  impact  sensors  (at  the  front  of  the
vehicle)  and  the  control  unit  (near  the  centre
of the vehicle at floor level).
 
The  SRS  driver’s  knee  airbag  (if  so  equip-
ped)  is  designed  to  supplement  the  primary
protection  of  the  driver’s  seat  belt  system.  It can  reduce  the  forward  movement  of  the
driver’s  lower  legs  and  provide  increased overall  body  protection  in  certain  moderate-
to-severe frontal collisions.
 
The SRS side airbags (if so equipped) are de- signed  to  supplement  properly  worn  seat belts and provide the driver and front passen-
ger  with  protection  against  chest  injuries  in certain  moderate-to-severe  side  impact  colli- sions.
