WA R N I N G
!IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO BE PROPERLY
SEATED.
• A driver or front passenger sitting too close to the
steering wheel or instrument panel during airbag
deployment can be seriously injured or killed.
• Airbags inflate very quickly and with great force.
If the driver and front passenger are not properly
seated and restrained, the airbag may not provide
the proper protection, and can cause serious inju-
ries or death when it inflates.
• To reduce the risk to the driver of serious injury or
death due to a deploying driver’s airbag, always
properly wear your seat belt and adjust the
driver’s seat as far back as possible, maintaining a
position that still allows the driver to have good
control of the steering wheel, brake, accelerator,
and other vehicle controls.
• To reduce the risk to the front passenger of serious
injury or death from a deploying passenger’s air-
bag, make sure the passenger always wears the
seat belt properly, remains seated upright and all
the way back in the seat, and positions the seat as
far back as possible.
• Seat all infants and children in the rear seat, prop-
erly restrained in an appropriate child restraint
system.
WA R N I N G
!Airbags inflate very quickly and with great force.
Do not sit on the edge of the seat or sit with your
lower legs too close to the instrument panel, or lean
your head or chest close to the steering wheel or the
instrument panel.Do not put your feet or legs on or against the instru-
ment panel.

!Infants and small children should never ride unre-
strained, or lean against the instrument panel. They
should never ride held in your arms or on your lap.
They can be seriously injured or killed in an acci-
dent, especially when the airbags inflate. Seat all
infants and children in the rear seat, properly
restrained in an appropriate child restraint system.
Refer to “Child restraint systems” on page 2-31.
WA R N I N G
!NEVER put REAR-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT
SYSTEMS or INFANT RESTRAINT SYSTEMS in
the front passenger seat. This places the infant too
close to the passenger airbag. During deployment of
that airbag, the infant can be seriously injured or
killed.
Rear-facing child restraint systems or infant
restraint systems must only be used in the rear seat.

Driver’s seat position sensor
N00417900177
The driver’s seat position sensor is attached to the seat rail and
provides the airbag control unit with information on the seat’s
fore-aft position. The airbag control unit controls deployment
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 2-52.
Passenger’s seat weight sensors
N00418000322
The passenger’s seat weight sensors are attached to the seat
rails and provide the airbag control unit with information
regarding the weight on the front passenger seat. The airbag
control unit controls deployment of the passenger’s front air-
bag in accordance with the information it receives from this
sensor.
The passenger’s front airbag will not deploy in an impact when
the weight on the seat is sensed to be less than approximately
66 pounds (30 kg). In this case, the passenger airbag off indica-
tor will come on.
Refer to “Passenger’s airbag off indicator” on page 2-51.
If there is a problem involving the passenger seat weight sen-
sors, the SRS warning light in the instrument panel will come
on. Refer to “SRS warning light/display” on page 2-52.
WA R N I N G
!If the SRS warning light or warning display comes
on, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized Mit-
subishi Motors dealer as soon as possible.Please observe the following instructions to ensure
that the driver’s seat position sensor can operate
correctly.
• Adjust the seat to the correct position, and sit well
back against the seatback.
Refer to “Front seats” on page 2-3.
• Do not recline the seatback more than necessary
when driving.
• Do not place metallic objects or luggage under the
front seat.
If the vehicle is involved in a severe impact, have the
SRS sensors inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer as soon as possible.

panel.
The indicator normally comes on when the ignition switch is
turned to the “ON” position or the operation mode is put in

tions, the indicator will stay on to show that the passenger front
airbag is not operational.
The passenger’s seat weight sensors sense a weight of less
than approximately 66 pounds (30 kg) on the front passen-
ger seat.
The front passenger’s seat is not occupied.
When the weight applied to the front passenger seat is sensed
to be approximately 66 pounds (30 kg) or greater, the indicator
goes out to show that the passenger’s front airbag is opera-
tional.
WA R N I N G

!Do not attach anything to the steering wheel’s pad-
ded cover, such as trim material, badges, etc. These
could strike and injure an occupant if the airbag
inflates.Do not set anything on, or attach anything to, the
instrument panel above the glove compartment.
Such items could strike and injure an occupant if the
airbag inflates.
WA R N I N G
!Do not attach accessories to, or put them in front of,
the windshield. They could restrict the airbag infla-
tion, or strike and injure an occupant, when the air-
bag inflates.Do not attach additional keys or accessories (hard,
pointed or heavy objects) to the ignition key. Such
objects could prevent the driver’s knee airbag from
inflating normally or could be propelled to cause
serious injury if the airbag inflates.Do not attach accessories to the lower portion of the
driver’s side instrument panel. Such objects could
prevent the driver’s knee airbag from inflating nor-
mally or could be propelled to cause serious injury if
the airbag inflates.

SRS servicing
N00408500584
NOTEWhen you transfer ownership of the vehicle to another
person, we urge you to alert the new owner that it is
equipped with the SRS and refer that owner to the applica-
ble sections in this owner’s manual.
If you decide to junk or scrap your vehicle, we urge you to
first take it to an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer so
that the SRS can be made safe for disposal.
If any of the following parts needs to be modified for use
by a handicapped person, the advanced airbag system will
be greatly affected. Please consult an authorized Mitsub-
ishi Motors dealer.
• Driver’s seat
• Front passenger seat
• Front seat belt
• Steering wheel
• Instrument panel
WA R N I N G
!Any maintenance performed on or near the compo-
nents of the SRS should be performed only by an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. Do not permit
anyone else to do any service, inspection, mainte-
nance or repair on any SRS components or wiring.
Similarly, no part of the SRS should ever be han-
dled, removed or disposed by anyone except an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
Improper work methods on the SRS components or
wiring could result in an accidental airbag deploy-
ment or could make the SRS inoperable. Either of
these situations could result in serious injury or
death.Do not modify your steering wheel or any other SRS
component or related vehicle part. For example,
replacement of the steering wheel, or modifications
to the front bumper or body structure can adversely
affect SRS performance and may lead to injury.If your vehicle has received any damage, you should
have the SRS inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer to make sure it is in proper working
order.
Do not modify your front seats, center pillar or cen-
ter console. Such modifications can adversely affect
SRS performance and may lead to injury.
Also, if you discover any tear or open seam in the
seat fabric near the side airbag, have the seat
inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer.If you have found any scratch, crack or damage to
the portion of the front and rear pillars and roof side
rail, you should have the SRS inspected by an autho-
rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
