The seat belt pre-tensioner system 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 is under the following conditions. These includeall of the item
s listed above a
nd all related
wiring. [Except for vehicles equipped with theF.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-tens
ioners will operate
under the same conditions
as the airbag con-
trol unit. When the seat belt pre-tensioners activate, some smoke is released
and a loud noise will
be 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 activa
te 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 appearto be severely damage
d. Such non-activation
does not mean that something is wrong with the seat belt pre-tens
ioner system, but rather
that the collision forc
es were not severe
enough to activate the system.

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

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 theshade. Do not allow them to retract until com- pletely dry. Do not attempt to bleach or re- dye the belts. The color may rub off and thewebbing strength may be affected.
Regularly check your seat belt buckles and their release mechanisms for positive engage-ment and release of the latch plate. Check the retractors for automatic locking when in the Automatic Locking Retractor function. The entire seat belt assembly should be replaced if the webbing shows any obvious cuts, tears, increase in thickness in any sec- tion of the webbing from broken fibers, orsevere fading from sunl
ight. All of these con-
ditions indicate a we
akening of the belt,
which may adversely affect seat belt perfor- mance in an accident.
N00407701850
This vehicle is equippe
d 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 andfront passenger seat
belt systems by provid-
ing those occupants wi
th protection against
head and chest injuries
in certain moderate to
severe frontal collisions. The SRS front air- bags, together with sens
ors at the front of the
vehicle and sensors attached to the frontseats, form an advanced airbag system. The SRS driver’s knee airbag is designed to supplement the primar
y protection of the
driver’s seat belt system. It can reduce the forward 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 and the curtain airbags are also designed to supplement the seat belts.The SRS side airbags provide the driver and front passenger with protection against chest injuries by deploying the bag on the sideimpacted in moderate
to severe side impact
collisions. The SRS curtain airbags provide the driver and passengers on the front seatand rear outboard seat
with protection against
head injuries by deploying the curtain airbag on the side impacted
in moderate to severe
side impact collisions
and by deploying both
curtain airbags when a rollover is detected. The curtain airbags are also designed to helpreduce the risk of comp
lete and partial ejec-
WA R N I N GAny child who is t
oo small to properly
wear a seat belt must be properlyrestrained in an appropriate childrestraint system, to reduce their risk of serious injury or de
ath in an accident.
A child should never be left unattended in, or unsupervised around, your vehicle. When you leave the ve
hicle, always take
the child out as well. Children can die from heat stroke if left or trapped inside the vehicle, especially on hot days. Keep your vehicle locked and the trunk lid closed when not in use. Keep your vehicle keys away from children. Never allow children to play in the trunk of your vehicle.
Maintenance and inspection of seat belts
WA R N I N G Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of the seat belt assemblies. This workshould be done by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors deal
er. Failure to have
an authorized Mitsub
ishi Motors dealer
perform the work could reduce the effec- tiveness of the belts and could result in a serious injury or de
ath in an
accident.

WA R N I N G Infants and small children should never ride unrestrained,
or lean against the
instrument panel. They should never rideheld in your arms or on your lap. They can be seriously inju
red or killed in an
accident, especially when the airbagsinflate. Seat all infants and children in the rear seat, properly re
strained in an appro-
priate child restraint system. Refer to“Child restraint syst
ems” on page 4-13.
WA R N I N GNEVER put REAR-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMS or INFANTRESTRAINT SYSTEMS in the front pas-senger seat. This places the infant too close to the passenger’s airbag. During deployment of that airbag, the infant canbe seriously inju
red or killed.
Rear-facing child restraint systems or infant restraint systems must only be usedin the rear seat.Airbag
WA R N I N G FRONT-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMS should be used in the rear seatwhenever possible. If they must be used inthe front passenger seat, move the seat to the most rearward position and make sure the child stays in the child restraint sys-tem, properly restrained. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious injury or death to the child.WA R N I N G Older children should be seated in the rear seat with their seat belt properly worn, and with an
appropriate booster
seat if needed.Refer to “Children
who have outgrown
child restraint syst
ems” on page 4-20.

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.

This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR).

NOTE
 You may purchase a re
placement battery at
an electric appliance store.  An authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer can replace the battery for you if you prefer.CAUTION When the remote control transmitter case is opened, be careful to
keep water, dust, etc.
out. Also, do not touch the internal compo- nents.
Door locks
WA R N I N G Make sure all doors are tightly closed and locked while driving.• Locked doors, in co
mbination with the
use of seat belts, can help reduce the riskof ejection in an accident.• Locked doors can help keep passengers,especially small children, from opening doors and falling out
of moving vehicles.
• Locked doors can help prevent outsiders from gaining access
to your vehicle when
you slow or come to a stop.
 Lock your vehicle when
ever you leave it.
Children who get into
unlocked vehicles
may not be able to get out. Childrentrapped inside vehicles can quickly be overcome by heat
and suffer serious
injury or death due to heat stroke. Never leave a ch
ild alone in the vehicle. In
addition to the risk
of heat stroke, chil-
dren can activate switches and controls, resulting in an injury
or fatal accident.
When closing a door,
make sure that the
door is fully closed and the door-ajar warning display goes
out on the informa-
tion screen on the multi-information dis- play. If the door is aj
ar it could open while
driving and cause an accident.
