6 General information
Installation of accessories
E00200300774
We recommend you to consult your MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point. ●
The installation of accessories
, optional parts, should only
be carried out within the limits prescribed by law in your country, and in accordance wi
th the guidelines fitting
instructions and warnings contained within the documentsaccompanying the parts or accessories.
●
Improper installation of el
ectrical components may cause
an electrical fire if incorrectly
fitted. Please refer to Modi-
fication/alteration to the electri
cal or fuel systems section
within this owner’s manual.
●
Using a cellular phone or radio set inside the vehicle with- out an external antenna may
cause electrical system inter-
ference, which could lead to
unsafe vehicle operation.
●
Tyres and wheels which do not meet specifications must not be used. Refer to the “Specifications
” section for information
regarding wheel and tyre sizes.
●
When fitting accessories, ensure that maximum gross vehicle weight and maximum axle weight are not exceeded.
Important points!Due to large number of accessory
and replacement parts of dif-
ferent manufactures available in the market, it is not possible,not only for MITSUBISHI MOTORS, but also for a MIT- SUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point, to check
whether the attachment or installa
tion of such parts affects the
overall safety of your MITSUBISHI-vehicle. Even when such parts are offici
ally authorized, for example by
a “general operators permit”
(an appraisal for the part) or
through the execution of the part
in an officially approved man-
ner of construction, or when a single operation permit follow- ing the attachment or installation of such parts, it cannot be deduced from that alone, that the driving safety of your vehiclehas not been affected. Consider also that there basically
exists no liability on the part
of the appraiser or the official.
Only in the case of parts (MIT-
SUBISHI MOTORS original repl
acement or exchange parts as
well as MITSUBISHI MOTORS
genuine accessories) that are
recommended and released by a MITSUBISHI MOTORSAuthorized Service Point and that
are attached or installed by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author
ized Service Point can you
assume, that optimal safety ha
s been provided. The same also
pertains to modifications of
MITSUBISHI vehicle with respect
to the production specifications. For your own safety, in such cases, you should only undert
ake modifications according to
the recommendations of a MI
TSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point.

Backdoor
E00301300336
NOTE●
The backdoor is equipped with an oil damper type back- door stopper, enabling you to hold the backdoor at a desired position.
●
While opening or closing the backdoor, you may feel slight resistance. This is a st
ructural feature of the back-
door stopper that supports the backdoor and does not indi- cate any abnormality.
To lock or unlock from outside the vehicle (Except for vehicles with
keyless entry system)
WARNING
!●
It is dangerous to drive with the backdoor open since carbon monoxide (CO)
gas can enter the cabin.
You cannot see or smell
CO. It can cause uncon-
sciousness and even death.CAUTION
!●
When the backdoor is open
, the rear-right combina-
tion lamp is obscured
by the spare wheel.

while the vehicle is parked
on the road, alert other r
oad users to the vehicle’s

Seat adjustment
E00400300314
Adjust the driver’s seat so th
at you are comfortable and that
you can reach the pedals, steer
ing wheel, switches etc. while
retaining a clear field of vision.
WARNING
!●
Do not attempt to adjust the seat while driving. This can cause loss of vehicle
control and result in an
accident. After adjustment
s are made, ensure the
seating is locked in positi
on by attempting to move
the seat forward and rearward without using theadjusting mechanism.
●
Do not allow people or children to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seatbelts, and make sure th
at everyone travelling in
your vehicle is in a seat and wearing a seat belt, or in the case of a child is stra
pped in a child restraint.
●
To minimize the risk of pers
onal injury in the event
of a collision or sudden braking, the seatbacks should always be in th
e almost upright position
while the vehicle is in
motion. The protection pro-
vided by the seat belts may be reduced significantly when the seatback is reclined. There is greater riskthat the passenger will slide under the seat belt, resulting in serious inju
ry, when the seatback is
reclined.
CAUTION
!●
Make sure the seat is adju
sted by an adult or with
adult supervision for corr
ect and safe operation.
●
Do not place a cushion or the like between your back and the seatback while driving. The effectiveness of the head restraints will be reduced in the event of anaccident.
●
When sliding the seats, be
careful not to catch your
hand or foot.

CAUTION
!●
Airbags inflate at an extremely rapid speed. In cer- tain situations, contact wi
th inflating airbags can
result in abrasions, light cuts, bruises, and the like.WARNING
!●
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO BE PROPERLY SEATED. A driver or front passenger too close to the steeringwheel or instrument panel during airbag deploy- ment can be killed or seriously injured. Airbags inflate very fast
, and with great force.
If the driver and passengers are not properly seated and restrained, the airbags may not protect you properly, and could cause
serious or fatal injuries
when it inflates.
WARNING
!●
Do not sit on the edge of the seat, or lean head or chest close to the steering wheel or instrument panel.Do not put feet or legs on
or against the instrument
panel.
●
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
for infants and children.

to the “OFF” position.
2. Remove the key from the key opening of that airbag ON-
OFF switch.
3. Insert the key into the ignition switch, and turn the igni-
tion to the “ON” position. The front passenger’s airbagOFF indication lamp will stay on.
The front passenger’s airbag is
now deactivated and will not
deploy until switched on again.
Driver’s and passenger’s front airbag system
E00407400372
The driver’s airbag is located
under the padded cover in the
middle of the steering wheel. Th
e front passenger’s airbag is
contained in the instrument panel above the glove box. The driver’s airbag inflates at
two different rates according to
the severity of the impact. The front passenger’s airbag de
ploys at the same time as the
driver’s airbag, even if the passe
nger seat is not occupied, and
inflates at two different rates
according to the severity of the
impact.

Deployment of front airbags
E00407500067
The front airbags ARE DESIGNED TO DEPLOY when...The front airbags are designed
to deploy when the vehicle suf-
fers a moderate to severe frontal impact. A typical condition is shown in the illustration.
The front airbags will deploy if the severity of impact is above the designed threshold level, co
mparable to an approximately
25 km/h
(15 mph)
collision when impacting straight into a solid
wall that does not move or deform. If the severity of the impactis below the above threshold level, the front airbags 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 properl
y wear your seat belts. Your
seat belts will help you to keep
a safe distance from the steer-
ing wheel and instrument panel during the initial stages of air-bag deployment. The initial stage of airbag inflation is the most forceful one and can possibly ca
use serious or fatal injuries.
Moreover, the seat belts in
your vehicle are your primary
means of protection in a col
lision. The SRS (Supplemental
Restraint System) airbags are de
signed to provide additional
protection. Therefore, for your sa
fety and the safety of all occu-
pants, be sure to always properly wear your seat belts.
1- Head-on collision with a solid wall at speed of approxi-
mately 25 km/h (15 mph) or higher
2- Moderate to severe frontal impact within the shaded area
between the arrows
