When the seat belt pre-tensioners activate, some smoke is released and a loud noise willbe heard. The smoke is
not harmful, but care
should be taken not to in
tentionally 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 front
or side impact, even
if the seat belt is not being worn. The seat belt pre-tensioners may not ac
tivate in certain col-
lisions, even though the vehicle may appear to be severely damage
d. Such non-activation
does not mean that something is wrong withthe seat belt pre-tens
ioner system, but rather
that the collision fo
rces were not severe
enough to activate the system.

This warning light tells you if there is a prob-lem involving the SRS airbags and/or the seat belt pre-tensioner sy
stem. Refer to “SRS

In the event of an accident, the seat belt force limiter system will help reduce the force applied to the driver and front seat passenger.
N00407101753
When transporting infants or small childrenin your vehicle, an appr
opriate child restraint
system must always be
used. This is required
by law in the U.S. and Canada.Child restraint systems specifically designed for infants and small ch
ildren are offered by
several manufacturers. Choose only a childrestraint system with a label certifying that it complies with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213 (FMVSS 213) or Motor VehicleRestraint Systems and
Booster Seats Safety
Regulations (RSSR).
Look for the manufac-
turer’s statement of compliance on the boxand child restraint system itself. The child restraint syst
em should be appropri-
ate for your child’s weight and height, and should properly fit your
vehicle’s seat.
For detailed information, refer to the instruc- tion manual accompanying the child restraint system.
All children should be properly restrained in a restraint device that
offers the maximum
protection for their size and age. Be sure to check local, state, or provincial requirements for child size and age that mayvary from the recommendations listed below.  Children less than 1 year old and who weigh 22 pounds (10 kg) or less MUSTride in a rear-facing child safety seat that MUST ONLY be used in the rear seat.  Children older than 1 year of age and who weigh less than 40 pounds (18 kg) or who are less than 40 inches (100 cm) tall must be in a forward-facing restraint used onlyin the rear seat.  Children who weigh more than 40 pounds (18 kg) or who are more than 40 inches(100 cm) tall, regard
less of age, should
use a suitable child seat or a booster seat in the rear seat until
the vehicle’s lap-and-
shoulder belt fits
them properly.
WA R N I N GThe seat belt pre-tensioner system is designed to work only
once. After the seat
belt pre-tensioners have been activated,they will not work again. They must promptly be replaced and the entire seat belt pre-tensioner system inspected by anauthorized Mitsubis
hi Motors dealer.

Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) - airbag 4-24 Seat and restraint systems

N00407801574
The SRS includes the following components:
The airbag control unit monitors the readiness of the electronic parts of the system whenever the ignition switch or the operation mode isunder the following conditions. These include all of the items listed
above and all related
wiring.[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 airbags will opera
te under the same con-
ditions as the airbag control unit.
When the impact sensors detect a sufficient front or side impact to deploy the airbag(s),the appropriate airbag
(s) will be deployed.
When the airbag control unit detects rollover of the vehicle, curtain airbags will be deployed. When airbags deploy, so
me smoke is released
accompanied by a loud noise. The smoke is not harmful, but do not intentionally inhale the smoke as it may ca
use temporary irrita-
tion to people with respiratory problems. An inflated airbag will deflate quickly, so you may not even notice that the airbag wasinflated. Airbag inflation does not prevent the driver from seeing or being able to steer the vehicle,and does not prevent people from leaving the vehicle.
N00418600256
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR).

seat or a child in a
child restraint system.
In this case, the pas-
senger’s airbag off indicator will illuminate. Refer to “Passenger’s ai
rbag off indicator” on
page 4-26. If there is a problem involving the passen- ger’s seat occupant cl
assification sensor sys-
tem, the SRS warning light in the instrument panel will come on.Refer to “SRS warning light” page 4-27.

The passenger’s airbag off indicator islocated at shown in the illustration. The indicator normally comes on when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the operation mode is put in ON, and goes out a few seconds later.
In the following situ-
ations, the indicator will stay on to show that the passenger front airb
ag is not operational.

[Vehicles equipped with the F.A.S.T.-key] The operation mode is in ON.• The SRS warning light does not go outafter several seconds.
• The SRS warning li
ght comes on while

 To ensure that the passenger’s seat occu- pant classification sensor system can sense correctly, observe the following instruc-tions. Failure to follow these instructions can adversely affect
the performance of
the passenger’s airbag system.• Adjust the seat to the correct position,and sit well back
against the seatback.
Refer to “Front seats” on page 4-3.• Do not recline the seatback more thannecessary.• Never have more th

N00508701382
Advanced automobile manufacturing tech- niques permit you to operate your new vehi- cle without requiring
a long break-in period
of low-speed driving. However, you can add to the future perfor- mance and economy of your vehicle byobserving the followi
ng precautions during
the first 300 miles (500 km). Drive your vehicle at moderate speeds during the break-in period.  Avoid revving the engine.  Avoid rough driving such as sudden starts, sudden acceleration, prolonged high- speed driving and sudden braking. These would have a detrimen
tal effect on the
engine and also cause increased fuel and oil consumption, wh
ich could result in
malfunction of the engine components. Beparticularly careful to
avoid full accelera-
tion while in low shift position (low gears). Do not overload the ve
hicle. Stay within
the seating capacity. (Refer to “Cargo load precautions” on page 6-10.) Do not use this vehi
cle for trailer towing.

WA R N I N G Individuals using ot
her electro-medical
apparatus besides implantable pacemak-ers and implantable
cardiovascular-defi-
brillators should check with the manufacturer of the apparatus to confirm the effect of the electromagnetic wavesused by the F.A.S.T.-key. The electromag- netic waves may affect
the operations of
the electro-medical apparatus.NOTE
 The F.A.S.T.-key uses weak electromagnetic waves.In cases such as the following, operationmay be improper or unstable. • The vehicle is near a facility that emits strong electromagnetic
waves, such as a TV
transmitting tower, a pow
er station, a radio
station or an airport
• The key is carried together with other com-munication devices such
as cellular phones
or radios, or electrical appliances such ascomputers • The F.A.S.T.-key touches or is covered by a metal object • A keyless entry system is being used nearby • The battery of the F.A.S.T.-key is run down• The vehicle is in a location with strong electromagnetic
waves or noise
Use the emergency key in such circum- stances.Refer to “To operate without using the F.A.S.T.-key” on page 5-19.  The F.A.S.T.-key is constantly performing reception operations
in its communication
with the vehicle. This means that the batteryis always running down, regardless of how often the F.A.S.T.-key is used. The battery life is about 1 to 2 years, depending on theusage conditions.  Since the F.A.S.T.-key is constantly perform- ing reception operati
ons, the reception of
strong electromagnetic
waves can accelerate
the running down of the ba
ttery. Do not place
near to electrical appliances such as televi- sions or computers.NOTE
