NOTE
EDR 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
N00417900223
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 light in the instrument panel will come on.
Refer to “SRS warning light” on page 2-44.
WA R N I N G
!
If the SRS warning light 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.

Passenger’s seat occupant classification sensor
system
N00418000364
The passenger’s seat occupant classification sensor system is
attached to the front passenger seat cushion and provides the
airbag control unit with information regarding the occupant on
the front passenger seat. The airbag control unit controls
deployment of the passenger’s front airbag in accordance with
the information it receives from this system.
The passenger’s front airbag will not deploy in an impact when
the system senses no occupant on the front passenger seat or a
child in a child restraint system. In this case, the passenger’s
airbag off indicator will illuminate.
Refer to “Passenger’s airbag off indicator” on page 2-43.
If there is a problem involving the passenger’s seat occupant
classification sensor system, the SRS warning light in the
instrument panel will come on.
Refer to “SRS warning light” page 2-44.
WA R N I N G
!
If any of the following conditions occur, you should
immediately have your vehicle inspected by an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer as soon as pos-
sible:
• The SRS warning light does not initially come on
when the ignition switch or the operation mode is
under the following conditions.
• [Except for vehicles equipped with the F.A.S.T.-
key]
The ignition switch is in the “ON” or “START”
position.
[Vehicles equipped with the F.A.S.T.-key]
The operation mode is in ON.
• The SRS warning light does not go out after sev-
eral seconds.
• The SRS warning light comes on while you are
driving.

SRS warning light
N00408300579
There is a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) warning light
on the instrument panel.
The system checks itself every time the ignition switch is
turned to the “ON” position or the operation mode is put in
ON. The SRS warning light will come on for several seconds
and then go out. This is normal and means the system is work-
ing properly.
If there is a problem involving one or more of the SRS compo-
nents, the warning light will come on and stay on.
The SRS warning light is shared by the SRS airbag and the seat
belt pre-tensioner system.
WA R N I N G
!
If any of the following conditions occur, you should
immediately have the airbag system in your vehicle
inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer as soon as possible:
• The passenger’s airbag off indicator comes on
when an adult is sitting on the front passenger
seat.
• The passenger’s airbag off indicator does not come
on when the front passenger seat is not occupied.
• The passenger’s airbag off indicator does not come
on when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON”
position or the operation mode is put in ON.
• The passenger’s airbag off indicator does not come
on when a child is in a child restraint system on the
front passenger seat.
• The passenger’s airbag off indicator comes on and
goes out repeatedly.

Do not attach any accessory to your vehicle that
makes the passenger’s airbag off indicator difficult
or impossible to see.
You must be able to see the passenger’s airbag off
indicator and verify the status of the passenger’s
airbag system.

Driver’s and passenger’s front airbag system
N00407900321
The driver’s airbag is located under the padded cover in the
middle of the steering wheel. The front passenger’s airbag is
contained in the instrument panel above the glove compart-
ment. The driver’s airbag and the front passenger’s airbag are
designed to deploy at the same time. However, the front pas-
senger’s airbag does not deploy when the front passenger seat
is not occupied or when the system senses that a child is in the
child restraint system.
WA R N I N G
!
If any of the following conditions occur, there may
be a problem with the SRS airbags and/or seat belt
pre-tensioners, and they may not function properly
in a collision or may suddenly activate without a col-
lision:
• Even when the ignition switch or the operation
mode is in ON, the SRS warning light does not
come on or it remains on.
• The SRS warning light comes on while driving.The SRS airbags and seat belt pre-tensioners are
designed to help reduce the risk of serious injury or
death in certain collisions. If either of the above con-
ditions occurs, immediately have your vehicle
checked by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.

NOTE
The keyless entry key and F.A.S.T.-key are a precision
electronic device with a built-in signal transmitter. Please
observe the following in order to prevent damage.
• Do not leave where it may be exposed to heat caused by
direct sunlight, such as on top of the dashboard.
• Do not take the remote control transmitter apart.
• Do not excessively bend the key or subject it to strong
impacts.
• Keep the remote control transmitter dry.
• Keep away from magnetic objects such as key rings.
• Keep away from devices that produce magnetism, such
as audio systems, computers and televisions.
• Keep away from devices that emit strong electromag-
netic waves, such as cellular phones, wireless devices
and high frequency equipment (including medical
devices).
• Do not clean with ultrasonic cleaners.
• Do not leave the key where it may be exposed to high
temperature or high humidity.

If you lose your key, to prevent the theft of the vehicle
immediately contact an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
