Mitsubishi Motors Corporation strongly sup- ports the use of reform 
ulated gasoline. Prop- 
erly blended reformul 
ated gasoline has no 
adverse effect on vehicle performance or the durability of the engine and the fuel system. MMT is a manganese-containing metallic additive that is blende 
d into some gasolines 
to increase the octa 
ne number. Mitsubishi 
Motors Corporation recommends using gaso- lines without MMT. Use of gasolines blended with MMT mayadversely affect performance, and cause the malfunction indicator on your instrument panel to come on. If this happens, contact anauthorized 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 regulations based on clean-burning low-sulfur gasoline.Gasoline sold in parts of the country other than California is allowed to have a higher sulfur content. Using such gasoline couldadversely affect the ve 
hicle’s catalytic con- 
verter and cause the e 
ngine malfunction indi- 
cator (“SERVICE ENGINE SOON” or “Check engine light”)  
to come on. Illumina- 
tion of this indicator  
while using high-sulfur 
gasoline does not necessa 
rily mean the vehi- 
cle’s emission-control  
system is malfunction- 
ing. Your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer may suggest using a different, lower- sulfur brand of unleaded gasoline to deter-mine if the problem is fuel-related.
N00301101994
MMT (methylcyclopentadienyl  manganese tricarbonyl)  Sulfur in gasoline 
NOTE
 Poor-quality gasoline
 can cause problems 
such as hard starting, stalling during idling,abnormal engine noise 
, and poor accelera- 
tion. If you experience any of these prob- lems, try using a differ 
ent brand of gasoline. 
If the engine malfunc 
tion indicator (“SER- 
VICE ENGINE SOON”  
or “Check engine 
light”) flashes, have  
the vehicle inspected as 
soon as possible by the nearest authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer 
 or a repair facility 
of your choice.
 Repeatedly driving s
hort distances at low 
speeds can cause deposits to form in the fuelsystem and engine, resu 
lting in hard starting 
and poor acceleration. 
 If these problems 
occur, you are advised to add a detergent additive to the gasoline when you refuel thevehicle. The additive  
will remove the depos- 
its, thereby returning the engine to a normal condition. Be sure  
to use a Mitsubishi 
Motors Genuine cleani 
ng additive. Using an 
unsuitable additive could make an engine malfunction. For details, 
 please contact the 
nearest authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
Filling the fuel tank 
WA R N I N G When handling fuel, comply with the safety regulations displayed by garagesand filling stations. Gasoline is highly flammable and explo- sive. You could be burned, seriously injured or killed when handling it. When refueling your vehicle, 
 always turn the 
engine off and keep 
 away from flames, 
sparks, and smoking materials. Always handle fuel in well-ventilated outdoor areas.NOTE

6 seconds to remind 
you to fasten your seat belt.If the vehicle is driven with the seat belt still unfastened, the warning light will blink and the tone will sound inte 
rmittently until the 
seat belt is fastened. At the same time, “FAS- TEN SEAT BELT” is displayed on the infor- mation screen in the multi informationdisplay.Driver’s seat belt  reminder/warning light and display 
WA R N I N G In order to reduce the risk of serious injury or death in an 
 accident, always fas- 
ten your own seat belt. Do not allow any-one to ride in your ve

is also seated and fastening a seat belt. Children should additi 
onally be restrained 
in a secure child restraint system.NOTE
 If the seat belt subs
equently remains unfas-

The seat belt pre-tensioners will operate under the same conditions as the airbag con-trol unit. When the seat belt pr 
e-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.Even in the event of a severe impact, the pre- tensioners will not operate if the seat belts are not fastened. The seat belt pre-tensioners may not activate in certain collisions, even though the vehicle may appear  
to be severely dam- 
aged. Such non-activation does not mean that something is wrong with  
the seat belt pre-ten- 
sioner system, but rather that the collisionforces were not severe 
 enough to activate the 
system.
N00408701147
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/display” on page 4-41.

In the event of an accident, the seat belt force limiter system will help reduce the force applied to the driver a

When transporting infants or small children in your vehicle, an appropriate child restraintsystem must always be  
used. This is required 
by law in the U.S. and Canada. Child restraint systems specifically designedfor infants and small children are offered by several manufacturers 
. Choose only a child 
restraint system with a label certifying that itcomplies with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213 (FMVSS 213) or Motor Vehicle Restraint Systems and Booster Seats SafetyRegulations (RSSR). Look for the manufac- turer’s statement of compliance on the box and child restraint system itself. 
The child restraint syst 
em should be appropri- 
ate for your child’s weight and height, andshould properly fit your 
 vehicle’s seat. 
For detailed information, refer to the instruc- tion manual accompanying the child restraintsystem. All children should be  
properly restrained in 
a restraint device that 
 offers the maximum 
protection for their size and age as specified by local, state, or provincial laws. Be sure to check local, state, or provincialrequirements for child si 
ze and age that may 
vary from the recommendations listed below.  Children less than 2 years 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 second row seat. Children older than 2 years of age and who weigh less than 40 pounds (18 kg) or who are less than 40 inches (100 cm) tallmust be in a forwar 
d-facing restraint used 
only in the rear seat.
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 seatbelt pre-tensioner system inspected by an authorized Mitsubis 
hi Motors dealer.

When the impact sensor 
s 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, some 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.

The driver’s seat posit 
ion sensor is attached 
to the seat rail and pr 
ovides the airbag control 
unit with information on the seat’s fore-aft position. The airbag control unit controlsdeployment 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/display” on page 4-41.

The passenger’s seat oc 
cupant classification 
sensor system is attach 
ed to the front passen- 
ger seat cushion and provides the airbag con- trol unit with information regarding the occupant on the front passenger seat. The air-bag 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 occu-pant on the front passenge 
r’s seat or a child in 
a child restraint system. In this case, the pas- senger airbag off indi 
cator will come on. 
Refer to “Passenger’s ai 
rbag off indicator” on 
page 4-40. 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. Re 
fer to “SRS warning 
light/display” on page 4-41.
CAUTION Airbags inflate very quickly and with great force. In certain situations, contact with aninflating airbag may cause small cuts, abra- sions, and bruises.
