MMT is a manganese-containing metallic additive that is blended into some gasolines to increase the octane number. Mitsubishi Motors Corporation recommendsusing gasolines without MMT. Use of gasolines blended with MMT may adversely affect performance, and cause themalfunction indicator on your instrumentpanel to come on. If this happens, contact an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice for assistance. Your vehicle may have been designed to sat- isfy California’s low-emission regulationsbased on clean-burning low-sulfur gasoline. Gasoline sold in parts of the country other than California is allowed to have a highersulfur content. Using such gasoline could adversely affect the vehicle’s catalytic con- verter and cause the engine malfunction indi-cator (“SERVICE ENGINE SOON” or “CHECK ENGINE”) to come on. Illumina- tion of this indicator while you are usinghigh-sulfur gasoline does not necessarily mean the vehicle’s emission-control system is malfunctioning. Your authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer may suggest you try using a different, lower-sulfur brand of unleaded gas- oline to determine whether the problem is fuel-related.

MMT (methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl) Sulfur in gasoline
NOTE
Poor-quality gasoline can cause problems such as poor starting,
stalling during idling,
abnormal engine noise, and poor accelera- tion. If you experience any of these prob- lems, try using a different brand of gasoline.If the engine malfunction indicator (“SER- VICE ENGINE SOON” or “CHECK ENGINE”) flashes, have the vehicleinspected as soon as possible by the nearest authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice. Repeatedly driving short distances at low speeds can cause deposits to form in the fuelsystem and engine, resulting in poor starting and poor acceleration. If these problems occur, you are advised to add a detergentadditive to the gasoline when you refuel the vehicle. The additive will remove the depos- its, thereby returning the engine to a normalcondition. Be sure to use a Mitsubishi Motors Genuine cleaning additive. Using an unsuitable additive could make the engine malfunction. For details, please contact the nearest authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
Filling the fuel tank
WA R N I N G Gasoline is highly flammable and explo- sive. You could be burned, seriously injured or killed when handling it. When refueling your vehicle, always turn theengine off and keep away from flames, sparks, and smoking materials. Always handle fuel in well-ventilated outdoorareas. Before removing the fuel cap, be sure to get rid of your body’s static electricity by touching a metal part of the car or fuel pump. Any static electricity on your bodycould create a spark that ignites fuel vapor. Perform the whole refueling process (opening the fuel tank filler door, remov- ing the fuel cap, etc.) by yourself. Do notlet any other person come near the fuel tank filler. If you allowed a person to help you and that person was carrying staticelectricity, fuel vapor could be ignited. Do not move away from the fuel tank filler until refueling is finished. If you moved away and did something else (for example, sitting on a seat) part-way through the refueling process, you could pick up a fresh charge of static electricity. Be careful not to inhale fuel vapor. Fuel contains toxic substances.

Warning display type 2 A tone and warning light are used to remind the driver to fasten the seat belt. If the ignition switch is set to the “ON” posi-tion without the driver’s seat belt being fas- tened, a warning light will come on and a tone will sound for approximately 6 secondsto remind you to fasten your seat belt. If you then drive with the seat belt unfastened for longer than a minute from when the igni-tion switch was turned on, the warning 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 yourvehicle with the seat belt unfastened, the warning light/display and tone will remind you to fasten your seat belt every time thevehicle starts moving. You will also bereminded to fasten your seat belt in this way when you remove your seat belt while driv- ing. The warning light and the tone go offwhen the seat belt is fastened.

N00407701805
This vehicle is equipped with a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS), which includes air-bags for the driver and passengers. The SRS front airbags are designed to supple- ment the primary protection of the driver and front passenger seat belt systems by provid-ing those occupants with protection against head and chest injuries in certain moderate to severe frontal collisions. The SRS front airbags, together with sensors at the front of the vehicle and sensors attached to the front seats, form an advancedairbag system. The SRS driver’s knee airbag is designed to supplement the primary protection of the driver’s seat belt system. It can reduce theforward movement of the driver’s lower legs
and provide increased overall body protection in certain moderate to severe frontal colli- sions. The SRS side airbags (if so equipped) and the curtain airbags (if so equipped) are alsodesigned to supplement the seat belts. The SRS side airbags provide the driver and front passenger with protection against chest inju-ries by deploying the bag on the side impacted in moderate to severe side impact collisions. The SRS curtain airbags providethe driver and passengers on the front seatand rear outboard seat with protection against head injuries by deploying a bag on the side impacted in moderate to severe side impactcollisions. The SRS airbags are NOT
a substitute for use
of the seat belts. For maximum protection in all types of accidents, seat belts mustALWAYS be worn by everyone who drives or rides in this vehicle (with infants and small children in an appropriate child restraint sys-tem in the rear seat, and older children buck- led in the rear seat). Refer to “Child restraint systems” on page 4-13.
The seat belt webbing may be cleaned with mild soap or detergent solution. Do not use an organic solvent. Allow the belts to dry in the shade. Do not allow them to retract until completely dry. Do notattempt to bleach or re-dye the belts. The color may rub off and the webbing strength may be affected.

WA R N I N G
WA R N I N G IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ALWAYS WEAR YOUR SEAT BELT PROPERLYEVEN WITH AN AIRBAG.
• Seat belts help keep the driver and pas- sengers properly positioned. This reduces the risk of injury in all collisions, and reduces the risk of serious injuries or death when the airbags inflate.During sudden braking just before a col- lision, an unrestrained or improperly restrained driver or passengers can moveforward into direct contact with, or within close proximity to, the airbag when it begins to inflate.The beginning stage of airbag inflation is the most forceful and can cause serious injuries or death if the occupant comes incontact with the airbag at this time. • Seat belts reduce the risk of injury inrollovers, rear impact collisions, and in lower-speed frontal collisions, because the airbags are not designed to inflate inthose situations.• Seat belts reduce the risk of beingthrown from your vehicle in a collision or rollover.
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO BE PROP- ERLY SEATED.• A driver or front passenger sitting tooclose to the steering wheel or instrument panel during airbag deployment can be seriously injured or killed.WA R N I N G

• Airbags inflate very quickly and with great force. If the driver and front pas- senger are not properly seated and restrained, the airbag may not provide the proper protection and can cause seri-ous injuries or death when it inflates.• To reduce the risk to the driver of seriousinjury or death due to a deploying driver’s airbag, always properly wear your seat belt and adjust the driver’s seatas far back as possible, maintaining a position that still allows the driver to have good control of the steering wheel,brake, accelerator, and other vehicle con- trols.• To reduce the risk to the front passengerof serious injury or death from a deploy- ing passenger’s airbag, make sure thepassenger always wears the seat belt properly, remains seated upright and all the way back in the seat, and positionsthe seat as far back as possible. • Seat all infants and children in the rearseat, properly restrained in an appropri- ate child restraint system.
Airbags inflate very quickly and with great force. Do not sit on the edge of the seat or sit with your lower legs too close to the instrument panel, or lean your head or chest close to the steering wheel or theinstrument panel. Do not put your feet or legs on or against the instrument panel.WA R N I N G
WA R N I N G Infants and small children should never ride unrestrained, or lean against the instrument panel. They should never ride held in your arms or on your lap. Theycan be seriously injured or killed in an accident, especially when the airbags inflate. Infants and children should beproperly seated in the rear seat in an appropriate child restraint system. Refer to “Child restraint systems” on page 4-13.
WA R N I N G NEVER put REAR-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMS or INFANT RESTRAINT SYSTEMS in the front pas-senger seat. This places the infant too close to the passenger airbag. During deployment of the airbag, the infant canbe seriously injured or killed. Rear-facing child restraint systems or infant restraint systems must only be usedin the rear seat.

When airbags deploy, some smoke is released accompanied by a loud noise. The smoke is not harmful, but do not intentionally inhale the smoke as it may cause temporary irrita-tion to people with respiratory problems. After deployment, the airbags will quickly deflate, so quickly that some people may not even realize the airbags inflated.Airbag inflation does not prevent the driver from seeing or being ab
le to steer the vehicle,
and does not prevent people from leaving thevehicle.

This vehicle is equipped with an event datarecorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations,such as an airbag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in under- standing how a vehicle’s systems performed.
The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as: How various systems in your vehicle were operating; Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened; How far (if at all) the driver was depress- ing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and, How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better under- standing of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehi- cle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such aslaw enforcement, that have the special equip- ment, can read the information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.
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-aftposition. The airbag control unit controls deployment of the driver’s front airbag in accordance with the information it receivesfrom this sensor. If there is a problem involving the driver’s seat position sensor, the SRS warning in theinstrument panel will come on. Refer to “SRS warning” on page 4-26.
CAUTION Airbags inflate very quickly and with great force. In certain situations, contact with an inflating airbag may cause small cuts, abra-sions, and bruises. Refer to “Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) - airbag” on page 4-21.
Event Data Recording
NOTE
EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driv- ing conditions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) arerecorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifyingdata routinely acquired during a crash inves- tigation.
Driver’s seat position sensor
WA R N I N G If the SRS warning comes on, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized Mit- subishi 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 4-3.

The front airbags and driver’s knee airbag may deploy if the underside of the vehicle suffers a moderate to severe impact (under- carriage impact). Some typical situations areshown in the illustrations. Because the front airbags and driver’s knee airbag may deploy in certain types of unex- pected impacts, as shown in the illustrations, and these unexpected impacts can move youout of position, it is important to always wear your seat belts properly. When worn properly, seat belts can help maintain your distancefrom the airbags and driver’s knee airbag when they begin to inflate. The beginning stage of airbag inflatio
n is the most forceful
and can cause serious injury or death if you are close to the deploying airbag.The front airbags and driver’s knee airbag MAY DEPLOY when …

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. A label is attached to the seatbacks in vehi- cles with side airbags.
Do not attach additional keys or accesso- ries (hard, pointed or heavy objects) to the ignition key. Such objects could prevent the driver’s knee airbag from inflating normally or could be propelled to causeserious injury if the airbag inflates. Do not attach accessories to the lower por- tion of the driver’s side instrument panel. Such objects could prevent the driver’s knee airbag from inflating normally orcould be propelled to cause serious injury if the airbag inflates.WA R N I N G Do not attempt to remove, install, disas- semble or repair the SRS airbags.WA R N I N G
Do not place objects, such as packages or pets, between the airbags and the driver or the front passenger. Such objects can adversely affect airbag performance, or cause serious injury or death when theairbag deploys. Immediately after airbag inflation, some parts of the airbag system will be hot. Do not touch them. You could be burned. The airbag system is designed to work only once. After the airbags deploy, they will not work again. They must promptlybe replaced and the entire airbag system must be inspected by an authorized Mit- subishi Motors dealer.WA R N I N G
