Installation of accessories
N00301700182
The installation of accessories, optional parts, etc., should
only be carried out within the limits prescribed by law in
the driving area and in accordance with the guidelines and
warnings contained within the documents accompanying
this vehicle.
Only Mitsubishi Motors approved accessories should be
fitted to your vehicle.
Improper installation of electrical parts could cause fire.
Refer to the “Modification/alterations to the electrical or
fuel systems” section within this owner’s manual.
Using a cellular phone or radio set inside the vehicle with-
out an external antenna may cause electrical system inter-
ference, which could lead to unsafe vehicle operation.
Tires and wheels which do not meet specifications must
not be used.
Refer to the “Specifications” section for information
regarding wheel and tire sizes.
Important point!Due to the large number of accessory and replacement parts
provided by different manufacturers in the market, it is not
always possible for an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer to
check whether the attachment or installation of non-Mitsubishi
Motors genuine parts will affect the driving safety of your
Mitsubishi-vehicle.
CAUTION
!Before any electrical or electronic accessories are
installed, consult an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer.
WA R N I N G
!If you choose to use a cellular phone while driving,
you must not allow that usage to distract you in the
safe operation of your vehicle. Anything, including
cellular phone usage, that distracts you from the
safe operation of your vehicle increases your risk of
an accident.
Refer to and follow all state and local laws in your
area regarding cellular phone usage while driving.

the seat belt.
If the ignition switch is set to the “ON” position without the
driver’s seat belt being fastened, a warning light will come on
and a tone will sound for approximately 6 seconds to remind
you to fasten your seat belt.
If you then drive with the seat belt unfastened for longer than a
minute from when the ignition switch was turned on, the warn-
ing light will come on and blink repeatedly and the tone will
sound intermittently.
The warning light and the tone will stop after approximately 90
seconds.If you then repeatedly stop and start your vehicle with the seat
belt unfastened, the warning light/display and tone will remind
you to fasten your seat belt every time the vehicle starts mov-
ing. You will also be reminded to fasten your seat belt in this
way when you remove your seat belt while driving. The warn-
ing light and the tone go off when the seat belt is fastened.
NOTEAt the same time, “FASTEN SEAT BELT” will be dis-
played on the information screen in the multi-information
display.

she is also seated and wearing a seat belt. Children
should additionally be restrained in a secure child
restraint system.

The seat belt pre-tensioner system includes the following com-
ponents:
The airbag control unit monitors the readiness of the electronic
parts of the system whenever the ignition switch is in the “ON”
or “START” position. These include all of the items listed
above and all related wiring.
The pre-tensioner seat belt system will operate only when the
ignition switch is in the “ON” or “START” position.When the seat belt pre-tensioners activate, some smoke is
released and a loud noise will be heard. The smoke is not harm-
ful, but care should be taken not to intentionally inhale it, as it
may cause some temporary irritation to people with respiratory
problems.
The pre-tensioners activate in the event of a moderate-to-
severe frontal or side impact, even if the seat belt is not being
worn. The seat belt pre-tensioners may not activate in certain
types of collisions, even though the vehicle may appear to be
severely damaged. Such non-activation does not mean some-
thing is wrong with the seat belt pre-tensioner system, but
rather that the collision forces were not severe enough or not of
the type to activate the system.
SRS warning
N00408700094
This warning tells you if there is a problem involving the SRS
airbags and the pre-tensioner seat belts. Refer to “SRS warn-
ing” on page 2-45.

NOTEEDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-triv-
ial crash situation occurs; no data are recorded by the
EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal
data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) are
recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforce-
ment, could combine the EDR data with the type of per-
sonally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash
investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is
required, and access to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In
addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as law
enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the
information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.
Driver’s seat position sensor
N00417900164
The driver’s seat position sensor is attached to the seat rail and
provides the airbag control unit with information on the seat’s
fore-aft position. The airbag control unit controls deployment
of the driver’s front airbag in accordance with the information
it receives from this sensor.
If there is a problem involving the driver’s seat position sensor,
the SRS warning in the instrument panel will come on. Refer to
“SRS warning” on page 2-45.
WA R N I N G
!If the SRS warning comes on, have the vehicle
inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer as soon as possible.Please observe the following instructions to ensure
that the driver’s seat position sensor can operate
correctly.
• Adjust the seat to the correct position, and sit well
back against the seatback.
Refer to “Front seats” on page 2-3.
• Do not recline the seatback more than necessary
when driving.
• Do not place metallic objects or luggage under the
front seat.
If the vehicle is involved in a severe impact, have the
SRS sensor inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer as soon as possible.
