2.Fasten the seat belt to secure the child
restraint system. Make sure you hear a “click” when you insert the latch plate in
the buckle.
3. Remove all slack by using the locking
clip.
4. Push and pull the child restraint in all di-
rections to be sure it is secure.WARNINGl For some types of child restraint, the lock-
ing clip (A) should be used to help avoid personal injury during a collision or sud-den manoeuvre.
It must be fitted and used in accordance
with the child restraint manufacturer’s instructions.
The locking clip must be removed when the child restraint is removed.Seat belt inspection
E00406301690
Check the belts for cuts, worn or frayed web- bing and for cracked or deformed metallic
parts. Replace the belt assembly if it is defec-
tive.WARNINGl We recommend you to have all seat belt
assemblies including retractors and at-
taching hardware inspected after any col- lision. We recommend that seat belt as-
semblies in use during a collision be re- placed unless the collision was minor and
the belts show no damage and continue to operate properly.
l Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of the seat belt assemblies; we recom-
mend you to have this work done by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point. Incorrect repair or replace-
ment could reduce the effectiveness of the
belts and could result in serious injury in the event of a collision.
l Once the pretensioner has been activated,
it cannot be re-used.
It must be replaced together with the re-
tractor.WARNINGl Do not insert any foreign objects (pieces
of plastic, paper clips, buttons, etc.) in the
buckle or retractor mechanism. In addi- tion, do not modify, remove or install the
seat belt. Otherwise, the seat belt may not be able to provide adequate protection in a collision or other situation.
l A dirty belt should be cleaned with neu-
tral detergent in warm water. After rins-
ing in water, let it dry in the shade. Do not
attempt to bleach or re-dye the belts be-
cause this will affect their characteristics.
Supplemental restraint
system (SRS) - airbag E00407203397
The information written in this Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) section contains im- portant points concerning the driver, front
passenger, side and curtain airbags.
Seat belt inspection
4-36OVWX17E1Seat and seat belts4

The SRS driver’s and front passenger’s air-bags are designed to supplement the primary
protection of the driver and front passenger
side seat belt systems by providing those oc- cupants with protection against head and
chest injuries in certain moderate-to-severe
frontal collisions.
The SRS driver’s and front passenger’s air- bags employ a dual stage airbag system. The
SRS driver’s and front passenger’s airbag is controlled by the impact sensors (at the front
of the vehicle) and the control unit (near the centre of the vehicle at floor level).

The SRS side airbag (if so equipped) is de-
signed to supplement properly worn seat belts and provide the driver and front passen-
ger with protection against chest injury in certain moderate-to-severe side impact colli- sions.

The SRS curtain airbags (if so equipped) are
designed to supplement properly worn seat belts and provide the driver and passenger with protection against head injuries in cer-
tain moderate-to-severe side impact colli- sions.

The SRS is NOT a substitute for the seat
belts; for maximum protection in all types of crashes and accidents, seat belts should AL-
WAYS be worn by everyone who drives or rides in this vehicle.How the Supplemental Re-
straint System works
E00407302939
The SRS includes the following components:
1- Airbag module (Driver)
2- Front passenger’s airbag OFF indication
lamp
3- Airbag module (Passenger)
4- Front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF
switch
5- Side airbag modules*
6- Curtain airbag modules*
The airbags will operate only when the igni- tion switch is in the “ON” or “START” posi-
tion.

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 inflating
airbags can result in abrasions, light cuts, bruises, and the like.

WARNINGlIT 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 passengers are not prop-
erly seated and restrained, the airbags may not protect you properly, and could
cause serious or fatal injuries when it in- flates.
l 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.
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.Use rearward facing child restraints in the
rear seat or turn off the front passenger’s air- bag ON-OFF switch. (Refer to “To turn an airbag off” on page 4-40.)WARNINGl A REARWARD FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT must NOT be used in the front passenger seat if the front passenger’s air-
bag has not been deactivated. The force of an inflating airbag could kill or cause se-
rious injuries to the child.
A rearward facing child restraint must only be used in the rear seat.
l A FORWARD FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT should be used in the rear seat
whenever possible; if it must be used in
the front passenger seat, adjust the seat to the most rearward position. Failure to do
so could kill or cause serious injuries to the child.

Front passenger’s airbag OFFindication lamp
E00411500068
The front passenger’s airbag OFF indication
lamp is located in the instrument panel.
The indication lamp normally comes on when the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” position, and goes off a few seconds later.
When the front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch is turned OFF, the indication lamp
will stay on to show that the front passen-
ger’s airbag is not operational. When the
front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch is turned ON, the indication lamp goes off to
show that the front passenger’s airbag is op-
erational.
WARNINGl Do not fit any accessory that makes the
indication lamp impossible to see, and do
not cover the indication lamp with a stick- er. You would not be able to verify thestatus of the passenger airbag system.To turn an airbag off
E00410600453WARNINGl To reduce risk of serious or fatal injury:
• Always remove the key from the igni-
tion switch before operating a front
passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch. Failure to do so could adversely affect
the airbag performance.
• Wait at least 60 seconds to operate the
front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch after turning the ignition switch
from “ON” position to “LOCK” posi- tion.
The SRS airbag system is designed to retain enough voltage to deploy the air-
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 rearward facing child restraint system
is fitted to the front passenger seat.
• If the indication lamp does not come on
when the front passenger’s airbag ON-
OFF switch is turned OFF, do not fit a rearward facing child restraint system
to the front passenger seat. We recom- mend you to have the system inspected
by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point.
• If the indication lamp 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 systeminspected by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
To turn an airbag off, follow these steps:
1. Insert the key into the front passenger’s
airbag ON-OFF switch, and turn it to the “OFF” position.
2. Remove the key from the key opening of
the front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch.

3.Insert the key into the ignition switch,
and turn the ignition to the “ON” posi-
tion. The front passenger’s airbag OFF
indication lamp will stay on.
The front passenger’s airbag is now deactiva- ted 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 pad- ded cover in the middle of the steering wheel. The 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 deploys at the
same time as the driver’s airbag, even if the
passenger seat is not occupied, and inflates at two different rates according to the severity of the impact.Deployment of front airbags
E00407501279
The front airbags ARE DE- SIGNED TO DEPLOY when…
The front airbags are designed to deploy when the vehicle suffers a moderate to severefrontal impact. A typical 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
Supplemental restraint system (SRS) - airbag
4-41OVWX17E1Seat and seat belts4LHD
RHD

The front airbags will deploy if the severityof impact is above the designed threshold
level, comparable to an approximately
25 km/h (16 mph) collision when impacting straight into a solid wall that does not move
or deform. If the severity of the impact is be- low the above threshold level, the front air- bags may not deploy. However, this thresh- old speed will be considerably higher if the
vehicle strikes an object that absorbs the im-
pact by either deforming or moving (for ex-
ample, 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 in a safe distance from the
steering 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.The front airbags MAY NOT
DEPLOY when…
With certain types of frontal collisions, the
vehicle’s body structure is designed to absorb the shock to help protect the occupants fromharm. (The vehicle body’s front area may de-form significantly as it absorbs the impact.) Under such circumstances, the front airbags
may not deploy irrespective of the deforma- tion and damage to the vehicle body.
Examples of some typical conditions are
shown in the illustration.
1- Collision with a utility pole, tree or other
narrow objects
2- Vehicle slides under the rear body of a
truck
3- Oblique frontal impacts
Because the front airbags do not protect the
occupant in all types of frontal collisions, be
sure to always properly wear your seat belts.
The front airbags ARE NOT DESIGNED TO DEPLOY
when…
The front airbags are not designed to deploy
in conditions where they cannot typically provide protection to the occupant. Such con-ditions are shown in the illustration.
1- Rear end collisions
2- Side collisions
3- Vehicle rolls onto its side or roof
Because the front airbags do not protect the occupant in all types of collisions, be sure to
always properly wear your seat belts.
Supplemental restraint system (SRS) - airbag
4-42OVWX17E1Seat and seat belts4

The front airbags MAY DE-PLOY when…
The front airbags may deploy if the bottom ofthe vehicle suffers a moderate-to-severe im-
pact (undercarriage damage).
Examples of some typical conditions are shown in the illustration.
1- Collision with an elevated median/island
or kerb
2- Vehicle travels over a deep hole/pothole
3- Vehicle drives down a steep slope and
hits the ground

Because the front airbags may deploy in cer- tain types of unexpected 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 instrument panel during the initial
stages of airbag deployment. The initial stage of airbag inflation is the most forceful andcan possibly cause serious or fatal injuries if
you contact it at this stage.WARNINGl Do not attach anything to the steering
wheel padded cover, such as trim materi- al, badges, etc. 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 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.
l Right after the airbag inflation, several
airbag system components will be hot. Do
not touch them; you could be burned.
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*
