WARNINGlSeat belts should always be worn by every
adult who drives or rides in this vehicle,
and by all children who are tall enough to wear seat belts properly.
Other children should always use proper child restraint systems.
l Always place the shoulder belt over your
shoulder and across your chest. Never put
it behind you or under your arm.
l One seat belt should be used by only one
person. Doing otherwise can be danger-
ous.
l The seat belt will provide its wearer with
maximum protection if the recliner seat-
back is placed in fully upright position.
When the seatback is reclined, there is greater risk that the passenger will slide
under the belt, especially in a forward im-
pact accident, and may be injured by the
belt or by striking the instrument panel or seatbacks.
l Remove any twists when using the belt.
l No modifications or additions should be
made by the user which will either pre- vent the seat belt adjusting devices fromoperating to remove slack, or prevent the
seat belt assembly from being adjusted to
remove slack.
l Never hold a child in your arms or on
your lap when riding in this vehicle, even
if you are wearing your seat belt. To do so risks severe or fatal injury to the child in
a collision or sudden stop.WARNINGl Always adjust the belt to a snug fit.
l Always wear the lap portion of the belt
over your hips.3-point type seat belt (with
emergency locking mechanism)
E00404902699
This type of belt requires no length adjust- ment. Once worn, the belt adjusts itself to the
movement of the wearer, but in the event of a sudden or strong shock, the belt automatical-
ly locks to hold the wearer’s body.
NOTEl You can check if the belt locks by pulling it
forward quickly.
l If the seat belt buckles in the rear seating po-
sition are not found, you will find them un-
der the rear seat cushion. Refer to “Making a
luggage area” on page 5-07 for how to put
the seat belt buckles at the proper position.
To fasten
1. Pull the seat belt out slowly while hold-
ing the latch plate.
NOTEl When the seat belts cannot be pulled out in a
locked condition, pull the belts once force-
fully and then return them. After that, pull
the belts out slowly once again.
2. Insert the latch plate into the buckle until
a “click” is heard.
WARNINGl Never wear the lap portion of the belt
across your abdomen. During accidents it
can press sharply against the abdomen and increase the risk of injury.
l The seat belts must not be twisted when
worn.
3. Pull the belt slightly to adjust slackness
as desired.

Only when the operation mode of the powerswitch is in ON, the airbags will operate.The airbags deployment produces a sudden,
loud noise, and releases some smoke and powder, but these conditions are not injuri- ous, and do not indicate a fire in the vehicle.
People with respiratory problems may feel
some temporary irritation from chemicals used to produce the deployment; open the
windows after airbag deployment, if safe to
do so.
The airbags deflate very rapidly after deploy- ment, so there is little danger of obscured vi-
sion.CAUTIONl Airbags inflate at an extremely rapid speed.
In certain situations, contact with inflatingairbags can result in abrasions, bruises, light
cuts, and the like.WARNINGl IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO BE
PROPERLY SEATED.
A driver or front passenger too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel
during airbag deployment can be killed or seriously injured.
Airbags inflate very fast, and with great force.
If the driver and front passenger are not
properly seated and restrained, the air-
bags may not protect you properly, and could cause serious or fatal injuries whenit inflates.
l Do not sit on the edge of the seat, or sit
with your lower legs too close to the in-
strument panel, or lean head or chest close to the steering wheel or instrument panel. Do not put feet or legs on or againstthe instrument panel.
l Place all infants and small children in the
rear seat and properly restrained using an
appropriate child restraint system.
The rear seat is the safest place for infants
and children.WARNINGl Infants and small children should never
be unrestrained, stand up against the in-strument panel or be held in your arms or on your lap. They could be seriously in-jured or killed in a collision, including when the airbag inflates. They should be
properly seated in the rear seat in an ap- propriate child restraint system. See the
“Child restraint” section of this owner’s
manual.

bag.
• Always remove the key from the front
passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch af-ter operating that switch. Failure to do
so could lead to improper position of the front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch.WARNING• Do not turn OFF the front passenger’s
airbag ON-OFF switch except when a child restraint system is fitted to the
front passenger seat.
• If the OFF indicator does not come on
when the front passenger’s airbag ON- OFF switch is turned OFF, do not fit a
child restraint system to the front pas- senger seat. We recommend you to
have the system inspected by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point.
• If the OFF indicator remains on when
the front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch is turned ON, do not allow any- one to sit on the front passenger seat.
We recommend you to have the system inspected by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
To turn an airbag off, follow these steps:
1. Remove the emergency key from the
keyless operation key.
Refer to “Emergency key” on page 4-14.
2. Insert the emergency key into the front
passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch, and turn it to the “OFF” position.
3. Remove the emergency key from the
front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch.
4. Put the operation mode of the power
switch in ON. The front passenger’s air- bag OFF indication lamp will stay on.

The driver’s airbag and the front passenger’sairbag are designed to inflate at the same
time even if the passenger seat is not occu- pied.Driver’s knee airbag system
E00412401104
The driver’s knee airbag is located under the steering wheel. The driver’s knee airbag is
designed to deploy at the same time as the driver’s front airbag.
Deployment of front airbags
and driver’s knee airbag
E00407502700
The front airbags and driver’s knee airbag ARE DESIGNED
TO DEPLOY when…
The front airbags and driver’s knee airbag are
designed to deploy when the vehicle suffers a moderate-to-severe frontal impact. The typi-
cal condition is shown in the illustration.
1- Head-on collision with a solid wall at a speed of approximately 25 km/h
(16 mph) or higher
2- Moderate-to-severe frontal impact with- in the shaded area between the arrows
The front airbags and driver’s knee airbag
will deploy if the severity of the impact is above the designed threshold level, compara-ble to a collision at approximately 25 km/h
(16 mph) when impacting straight into a solid
wall that does not move or deform. If the se-
verity of the impact is below the above threshold level, the front airbags and driver’s knee airbag may not deploy. However, this
threshold speed will be considerably higher if
the vehicle strikes an object that absorbs the impact by either deforming or moving (for
example, another stationary vehicle, pole or a
guard rail).
Because frontal collisions can easily move you out of position, it is important to always
properly wear your seat belts. Your seat belts will help keep you a safe distance from thesteering wheel and instrument panel during
the initial stages of airbag deployment. The
initial stage of airbag inflation is the most forceful, and can possibly cause serious or fa-tal injuries. Moreover, the seat belts in your
vehicle are your primary means of protection
in a collision. The SRS airbags are designed to provide additional protection. Therefore,
for your safety and the safety of all occu- pants, be sure to always properly wear your
seat belts.
Supplemental restraint system (SRS) - airbag
5-33OGGE16E1Seats and seat belts5

Because the front airbags and driver’s knee
airbag may deploy in certain types of unex- pected impacts as shown in the illustration that can easily move you out of position, it is important to always properly wear your seat belts. Your seat belts will help keep you a
safe distance from the steering wheel and in- strument panel during the initial stages of air-
bag deployment. The initial stage of airbag inflation is the most forceful and can possibly
cause serious or fatal injuries if you contact it
at this stage.WARNINGl Do not attach anything to the steering
wheel’s padded cover, such as badges or accessories. It might strike and injure an
occupant if the airbag inflates.
l Do not set anything on, or attach anything
to, the instrument panel above the glove box. It might strike and injure an occu- pant if the airbag inflates.WARNINGl Do not attach accessories to, or put them
in front of, the windscreen. These objects
could restrict the airbag inflation, or strike and injure an occupant if the air-
bags inflate.
l Do not attach accessories to the lower
portion of the driver’s side instrumentpanel. Such objects could prevent the
driver’s knee airbag from inflating nor-
mally or could be propelled and cause se- rious injury if the airbag inflates.WARNINGl Do not put packages, pets or other objects
between the airbags and the driver orfront passenger. It could affect airbagperformance, or could cause injury when the airbag inflates.WARNINGl Right after the airbag inflation, several
airbag system components will be hot. Do
not touch these components. There is a
danger of being burnt.
l The airbag system is designed to work on-
ly once. Once the airbags have deployed,
they will not work again. They must
promptly be replaced, and we recommend you to have the entire airbag system in-spected by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.Side airbag system
E00407600619
The side airbags (A) are contained in the
driver and front passenger seatbacks.
The side airbag is designed to inflate only on the side of the vehicle that is impacted, evenwith no passenger in the front seat.
Supplemental restraint system (SRS) - airbag
5-35OGGE16E1Seats and seat belts5

WARNINGlDo not allow any rear seat occupant to
hold onto the seatback of either front seat,
in order to reduce risk of injury from the
deploying side airbag. Special care should
be taken with children.
l Do not place any objects near or in front
of the seatback of either front seat. They could interfere with proper side airbag in-
flation, and also could cause injury if thrown free by side airbag deployment.
l Do not place stickers, labels or additional
trim on the seatback of either front seat. They could interfere with proper side air-bag inflation.
l Do not install seat covers on seats with
side airbags.
Do not re-cover seats that have side air-
bags. This could interfere with proper side airbag inflation.
l Do not attach a microphone (A) or any
other device or object around the part
where the curtain airbags (B) activate
such as on the windscreen, side door glass, front and rear pillars and roof side or as- sist grips. When the curtain airbags in-
flate, the microphone or other device or object will be hurled with great force orthe curtain airbags may not activate cor-
rectly, resulting in death or serious injury.WARNINGl Do not put a hanger or any heavy or poin-
ted object on the coat hook. If the curtain
airbag was activated, any such item could
be propelled away with great force and could prevent the curtain airbag from in-
flating correctly. Hang clothes directly on the coat hook (without using a hanger).
Make sure there are no heavy or sharp objects in the pockets of clothes that you
hang on the coat hook.
l Do not allow a child to lean against or
close to the front door even if the child is
seated in a child restraint system.
The child’s head should also not lean against or be close to the area where the
side airbag and curtain airbag are loca-
ted. It is dangerous if the side airbag and curtain airbag inflate.
Failure to follow all of these instructions
could lead to serious or fatal injury to the
child.WARNINGl We recommend work around and on the
side airbags and curtain airbags system to
be done by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
