The airbag control unit monitors the readiness of the electronic parts of the system wheneverthe 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. - k e y ] 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. 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 intentionally inhale it, as it may cause some temporary irritation topeople with respiratory problems. Even in the event of a severe impact, the pre- tensioners will not operate if the seat belts arenot fastened. The seat belt pre-tensioners maynot activate in certain collisions, even though the vehicle may appear to be severely dam- aged. Such non-activation does not mean thatsomething is wrong with the seat belt pre-ten- sioner system, but rather that the collision forces were not severe enough to activate thesystem.

When transporting infants or small childrenin your vehicle, an appropriate child restraint system must always be used. This is requiredby law in the U.S. and Canada. Child restraint systems specifically designed for infants and small children are offered byseveral manufacturers. Choose only a child restraint system with a label certifying that it complies with Federal Motor Vehicle SafetyStandard 213 (FMVSS 213) or Motor Vehicle Restraint Systems and Booster Seats Safety Regulations (RSSR). Look for the manufac-turer’s statement of compliance on the box and child restraint system itself.

The seat belt webbing may be cleaned with mild soap or detergent solution. Do not use anorganic solvent. Allow the belts to dry in the shade. 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 the webbing 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, or severe fading from sunlight. All of these con- ditions indicate a weakening of the belt,which may adversely affect seat belt perfor- mance in an accident.

This vehicle is equipped 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 and
front passenger seat belt systems by provid- ing those occupants with protection against head and chest injuries in certain moderate to severe frontal collisions. The SRS front air-bags, together with sensors at the front of the vehicle and sensors attached to the front seats, form an advanced airbag system. The SRS driver’s knee airbag is designed to supplement the primary protection of the driver’s seat belt system. It can reduce the forward movement of the driver’s lower legsand provide increased overall body protectionin 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 the passengers on the front seatand the rear outboard seats with protection against head injuries by deploying the curtain airbag on the side impacted in moderate tosevere side impact collisions and by deploy- ing both curtain airbags when a rollover is detected. The curtain airbags are alsodesigned to help reduce the risk of complete and partial ejection from the vehicle through
WA R N I N G Any child who is too small to properly wear a seat belt must be properly restrained in an appropriate child restraint system, to reduce their risk of serious injury or death in an accident. A child should never be left unattended in, or unsupervised around, your vehicle.When you leave the vehicle, 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 when not in use. Keep your vehicle keys away from chil-dren.
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 work should be done by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. Failure to havean authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer perform the work could reduce the effec- tiveness of the belts and could result in aserious injury or death in an accident.

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 is under the following conditions. These includeall of the items listed above and all relatedwiring. [Except for vehicles equipped with the F. A . S . T. - k e y ] 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 operate 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 bedeployed. When airbags deploy, some smoke is released accompanied by a loud noise. The smoke is not harmful, but do not intentionally inhalethe smoke as it may cause temporary irrita-tion to people with respiratory problems. An inflated airbag will deflate quickly, so you may not even notice that the airbag was inflated.Airbag inflation does not prevent the driver from seeing or being able to steer the vehicle, and does not prevent people from leaving thevehicle.

The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an airbag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in under-standing how a vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for ashort period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:  How various systems in your vehicle were operating; Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened;  How far (if at all) the driver was depress- ing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,  How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better under- standing of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehi- cle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such aslaw enforcement, that have the special equip- ment, can read the information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.
N00417900177
The driver’s seat position sensor is attachedto the seat rail and provides the airbag controlunit with information on the seat’s fore-aft position. The airbag control unit controls deployment of the driver’s front airbag inaccordance with the information it receives from this sensor. If there is a problem involving the driver’sseat position sensor, the SRS warning light in the instrument panel will come on. Refer to
“SRS warning light/display” on page 4-32.
N00418000322
The passenger’s seat weight sensors are attached to the seat rails and provide the air- bag control unit with information regarding the weight on the front passenger seat. Theairbag control unit controls deployment of the passenger’s front airbag in accordance with the information it receives from this sensor.
NOTE
 EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driv- ing conditions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) arerecorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifyingdata routinely acquired during a crash inves- tigation.
Driver’s seat position sensor
WA R N I N G If the SRS warning light or warning dis- play comes on, have the vehicle inspectedby an authorized Mitsubishi 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 4-3.• Do not recline the seatback more thannecessary when driving.• Do not place metallic objects or luggageunder 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.
