Your vehicle has seat
belts and other safety
features that help
protect you and your pas-
sengers in an accident.Seat belts are the most important safety device. When worn properly, seat belts can reduce the chance of serious injury or deathin various types of cras
hes. For added protec-
tion during a severe fr
ontal collision, your
vehicle has a Supplemen
tal Restraint System
(SRS) with airbags for the driver and passen- gers. The seats, head restraints, and door
locks also are safety equipment, which must be used correctly. Always check the following before you drive: That everyone in your vehicle is properly wearing their seat belt.  That infants and small children are prop- erly secured in an appropriate childrestraint system in the rear seat.  That all doors are fully closed and locked.  That seatbacks are upright, with head restraints properly adjusted.

Safety equipment cannot prevent injury or death in all motor ve
hicle accidents. How-
ever, you can help reduce the risk of injury or death by following the
instructions in this
manual.
N00401800403
Position the driver’s seat
as far back as possi-
ble while maintaining a position that still enables you to fully apply the pedals, easily control the steering wh
eel and safely operate

rd to the desired posi-
tion. Release the adjusting lever to lock theseat in place.

lead to an accident.
It may also cause damage to the seat orother parts.
Front seats
WA R N I N G Do not attempt to adjust the seat while driving. This can cause loss of vehicle con-trol and result
in an ac
cident.
After adjusting the seat, make sure that seat is securely locked into position. To reduce the risk to the driver of serious injury or death during deployment of thedriver’s airbag, always
properly wear the

N00406200460
All seats are equipped with a seat belt which uses one combined lap-
and-shoulder belt with
an emergency locking retractor. This system is designed to provide both com- fort and safety. It pe
rmits full extension and
automatic retraction of the belts during nor- mal vehicle operation.
A sensing device
inside the belt retractor is designed to lock the retractor in the event of a sudden change inthe vehicle’s motion. 1. Occupants shoul
d always sit back in their
seats with their backs against the upright seatback. To reduce the risk of seriousinjury or death during deployment of the airbag, adjust the driver’s seat as far back as possible while maintaining a positionthat still enables you to fully apply the pedals, easily contro
l the steering wheel,
and safely operate the vehicle. The frontpassenger seat should
also be moved as
far back as possible. Refer to “Supple- mental Restraint System (SRS) - airbag

Seat belts work for everyone, including preg- nant women. Like a
ll occupants, pregnant
women are more likely to be seriously injuredor killed in an accident if they do not wear seat belts.
N00417701752
The driver’s and front passenger’s seats each have a seat belt equippe
d with a pre-tensioner
system and force limiter system.
The driver and front pa
ssenger seat belts are
equipped with a seat belt pre-tensioner sys- tem. In a moderate-to-
severe frontal or side
collision or when a rollover or overturning of the vehicle is detected, the pre-tensioner sys- tem operates simultaneous
ly with the deploy-
ment of the front airb
ags, side airbags or
curtain airbags. The seat belt pre-tensi
oners are located within
the seat belt retractors (A). When activated, the pre-tensioners quickly
draw back seat belt
webbing and increase se
at belt performance.
The seat belt pre-tens
ioner system includes
the following components:
The airbag control unit monitors the readiness of the electronic parts of the system wheneverthe ignition switch or the operation mode is under 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 seat belt pre-tensioners will operate under the same conditions as the airbag con- trol unit.
Seat belt use during preg- nancy
WA R N I N G To reduce the risk of serious injury or death to pregnant women and unborn children in an accident, pregnant womenshould always wear
a seat belt. The lap
portion of the seat belt should be worn snug and low across the hips and belowthe rounding. Consult your doctor if you have any additional qu
estions or concerns.

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
warning light” on page 4-27.
N00408900142
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.
