WA R N I N G Never hold an infant or child in your arms or on your lap when riding in this vehicle, even when you are wearing your seat belt. Never place any part of the seat belt you are wearing around an infant or child.Failure to follow these simple instructions creates a risk of serious injury or death to your child in the event of an accident orsudden stop.
WA R N I N G Your vehicle is also equipped with a front passenger airbag. Never put REAR-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMS or INFANT RESTRAINT SYSTEMS in the front pas-senger seat. This places the infant too close to the passenger airbag. During deployment of that airbag, the infant canbe seriously injured or killed. Rear-facing child restraint systems or infant restraint systems must only be used in the rear seat.Airbag
WA R N I N G FRONT-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMS should be used in the rear seat whenever possible. If one must be used in the front passenger seat, move the seat to the most rearward position and make surethe child stays in th
e child restraint sys-
tem, properly restrained. Failure to follow these instructions could result in seriousinjury or death to the child.WA R N I N G It is important to use an approved rear- facing infant restraint until the infant isone year old (unless the infant outgrows the seat sooner). This allows the infant’s neck and spine to develop enough to sup-port the weight of their head in the event of an accident.

The outboard seating positions in the rear seat of your vehicle are equipped with loweranchors for attaching child restraint systemscompatible with the LATCH system.
 When installing a child restraint system, follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer and follow the directions in this manual. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death to your child in anaccident or sudden stop. After installation, push and pull the child restraint system back
and forth, and side
to side, to see that it is firmly secured. If the child restraint system is not installedsecurely, it may cause injury to the child or other occupants in the event of an acci- dent or sudden stop. When not in use, keep your child restraint system secured with the seat belt, orremove it from the vehicle, in order to pre- vent it from being thrown around inside the vehicle during an accident.WA R N I N G
NOTE
 Before purchasing a child restraint system, try installing it in the
rear seat to make sure
there is a good fit. Because of the location of the seat belt buckles and the shape of the seat cushion, it may be difficult to securely installsome manufacturer’s child restraint systems. If the child restraint system can be pulled forward or to either side easily on the seatcushion after the seat belt has been tightened, choose another manufacturer’s child restraint system.Depending on the seating position in the vehicle and the child restraint system that you have, the child restraint system can beattached using one of the following 2 meth- ods: • Attach to the lower anchorage in the rear seat ONLY if the child restraint system is compatible with the LATCH system (Seepage 4-21). • Attach to the seat belt (See page 4-23).

With the exception of the driver’s seat, theseat belt in all other seating positions can beconverted from normal Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) mode to Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) mode. This means that whenyou pull the seat belt fully out of the retractor,the retractor will switch to its ALR child restraint installation function. Always use the ALR child restraint installation functionwhen you install a child restraint system using the seat belt. Children 12 years old and under should always be restrained in the rear seat wheneverpossible, although the front passenger seat belt can also be converted to ALR mode.
NOTE
 In order to secure a child restraint system compatible with the LATCH system, use the lower anchor points in the outboard positions of the rear seat. It is not necessary to use the vehicle’s seat belt. The vehicle’s seat belt,however, MUST be used to secure a child restraint system in the center position of the rear seat.WA R N I N G If there is any foreign material in or around the lower anchors, remove it before installing the child restraint sys-tem. Also, make sure the seat belt is away from, not looped through or otherwise interfering with, the child restraint sys-tem. If foreign matter is not removed and/or the seat belt interferes with the child restraint system, the child restraintsystem will not be secured properly, could detach and move forward in the event of sudden braking or an accident, and couldresult in injury to the child or other vehi- cle occupants. When the vehicle is moving, do not adjust the seat where the child restraint system isinstalled.
WA R N I N G Child restraint system tether anchors are designed only to withstand loads from cor-rectly fitted child restraint systems. Under no circumstances are they to be used for adult seat belts, or harnesses, or forattaching other items or equipment to the vehicle.

1. Place the child restraint system on the seat where you wish to install it. To help assure proper fitting of the childrestraint system, always remove the head restraint.
2. Route the seat belt through the child restraint system’s according to the instructions provided by the child restraint system’s manufacturer. Then insert theseat belt latch plate into the buckle. Make sure you hear a “click” when you insert the latch plate into the buckle. 3. To activate the ALR child restraint instal- lation function, slow
ly pull the shoulder
part of the belt all the way out of theretractor until it stops. Then let the belt feed back into the retractor.
4. After the belt has retracted, tug on it. If the belt is in the ALR function, you will not be able to pull it out. If the webbingcan be pulled out from retractor, the ALR function has not been activated and you will need to repeat steps 3 and 4.5. After confirming that the belt is locked,grab the shoulder part of the belt near the buckle and pull up to remove any slack from the lap part of the belt, allowing theslack to feed into the retractor. Remember, if the lap belt portion is not tight, the child restraint system will not be secure. It mayhelp to put your weight on the child restraint system and/or push on its seat- back while pulling up on the belt (Seeillustration).
WA R N I N G When you install a child restraint system using the seat belt, always make sure the retractor has been switched to the ALR child restraint installation function. The ALR function will keep the child restraintsystem tightly secured to the seat. Failure to convert the retractor to the ALR function may allow the childrestraint system to move forward during sudden braking or an accident, resulting in serious injury or death to the child orother occupants. When you install a child restraint system using the 3-point type seat belt with 2 buckles in the rear center seating position, always make sure both latch plates aresecured. Do not use the seat belt with only one of the latch plates attached. This could result in a serious injury or death in theevent of an accident or sudden stop.

Children who have outgrown a child restraint system should be seated in the rear seat and wear the seat belt. If the shoulder belt crossestheir face or neck, and/or the lap belt crosses
their stomach, a commercially available booster seat must be used to raise the child so that the shoulder belt crosses their shoulder and the lap belt remains positioned lowacross their hips. The booster seat should fit the vehicle seat and have a label certifying compliance with Federal Motor VehicleSafety Standards or Motor Vehicle Restraint Systems and Booster Seats Safety Regula- tions.
If your child restraint system requires the use of a tether strap, fasten the tether strap in accordance with the following procedures.
WA R N I N G Child restraint system tether anchors are designed only to withstand loads from cor- rectly fitted child restraint systems. Under no circumstances are they to be used for adult seat belts, or harnesses, or forattaching other items or equipment to the vehicle.
Children who have outgrown child restraint systems
WA R N I N G Any child who is too small to properly wear a seat belt must be properlyrestrained 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 he
at 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.

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 obviouscuts, 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 SupplementalRestraint 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 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 andfront passenger with protection against chest injuries by deploying the bag on the side impacted in moderate to severe side impactcollisions. The SRS curtain airbags providethe driver and the passengers on the front seat and the rear outboard seats with protection against head injuries by deploying the curtainairbag on the side impacted in moderate to severe side impact collisions and by deploy- ing both curtain airbags when a rollover isdetected. The curtain airbags are also designed to help reduce the risk of complete and partial ejection from the vehicle throughside windows in both side impact and roll- over type accidents. The SRS airbags are NOT
a substitute for use
of the seat belts. For maximum protection inall types of accidents, seat belts must ALWAYS be worn by everyone who drives or rides in this vehicl
e (with infants and small
children in an appropriate child restraint sys- tem in the rear seat, and older children buck- led in the rear seat). Refer to “Child restraint
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 authorizedMitsubishi Motors dealer. Failure to have an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer perform the work could reduce the effec- tiveness of the belts and could result in a serious injury or death in an accident.
 Never use an organic solvent to clean the seat belt webbing. Do not attempt to bleach or re-dye the seat belt webbing. These may weaken the seat belt webbing, increasing risk of injury or death in anaccident. Clean seat belt webbing only with mild soap or detergent solution and rinse itwith lukewarm water, and dry the seat belt webbing completely before retracting it.

WA R N I N G IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ALWAYS WEAR YOUR SEAT BELT PROPERLYEVEN WITH AN AIRBAG.• Seat belts help keep the driver and pas-sengers properly positioned. This reduces the risk of injury in all collisions, and reduces the risk of serious injuries ordeath when the airbags inflate. During sudden braking just before a col- lision, an unrestrained or improperlyrestrained driver or passengers can move forward into direct contact with, or within close proximity to, the airbagwhen it begins to inflate. The beginning stage of airbag inflation is the most forceful and can cause seriousinjuries or death if the occupant comes in contact with the airbag at this time.• Seat belts reduce the risk of injury inrear impact collisions, and in lower- speed frontal collisions because the air-bags are not designed to inflate in those situations.• Seat belts reduce the risk of beingthrown from your vehicle in a collision or rollover.
 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 withgreat force. If the driver and front pas- senger are not properly seated andrestrained, the airbag may not provide the proper protection, and can cause serious injuries or de
ath when it inflates.
• To reduce the risk to the driver of serious injury or death due to a deployingdriver’s airbag, always properly wear your seat belt and adjust the driver’s seat as far back as possible, maintaininga position that still allows the driver to have good control of the steering wheel, brake, accelerator, and other vehicle con-trols.• To reduce the risk to the front passengerof serious injury or death from a deploy- ing passenger’s airbag, make sure the passenger always wears the seat beltproperly, 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 rearseat, properly restrained in an appropri- ate 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 theinstrument panel. Do not put your feet or legs on or against the instrument panel.WA R N I N G Infants and small children should never ride unrestrained, or lean against theinstrument panel. They should never ride held in your arms or on your lap. They can be seriously injured or killed in anaccident, especially when the airbags inflate. Seat all infants and children in the rear seat, properly restrained in an appro-priate child restraint system. Refer to “Child restraint systems” on page 4-19.WA R N I N G

WA R N I N G NEVER put REAR-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMS or INFANT RESTRAINT SYSTEMS in the front pas-senger seat. This places the infant too close to the passenger airbag. During deployment of that airbag, the infant canbe seriously injured or killed. Rear-facing child restraint systems or infant restraint systems must only be usedin the rear seat.
WA R N I N G FRONT-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEMS should be used in the rear seat whenever 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.Airbag
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 boosterseat if needed. Refer to “Children who have outgrown child restraint systems” on page 4-25.

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.
