2003 MITSUBISHI SHOGUN Owner's Manual (in English)

The pre-tensioner activates whenever a
strong impact is applied at the front of the
vehicle, even if the seat belt is not worn.
The pre-tensioner seat belts may not acti-
vate in certain frontal collisions, even
though the vehicle may be severely dam-
aged. Such non-activation does not mean
that something is wrong with the SRS sys-
tem, but rather that the collision forces were
not severe enough to activate it.
WARNING
(1) Following the pre-tensioner seat
belt activation, several
pre-tensioner seat belt system
components will be hot. Do not
touch them after activation.
(2) The pre-tensioner seat belt sys-
tem is designed to work only
once. After the pre-tensioner
seat belts have been activated,
they will not work again. They
must promptly be replaced, and
the entire pre-tensioner seat belt
system inspected by an autho-
rized MITSUBISHI dealer.
(3) If the vehicle is involved in a
frontal collision but the
pre-tensioner seat belts are not
activated, be sure to have the
pre-tensioner seat belt system
checked and, if necessary,
replaced by an authorized MIT-
SUBISHI dealer.

SRS warning lamp
EG29F-R
There is a supplemental restraint system
(“SRS”) warning lamp on the instrument
panel. The system checks itself and the
lamp tells you if there is a problem. When
the ignition key is turned to the“ON”or
“START”position, the warning lamp should
illuminate for several seconds and then
should go out. This means the system is
ready.
The SRS warning lamp is shared by the
driver’s front air bag, the front passen-
ger’s air bag, side air bags (if so equipped)
and the seat belt pre-tensioners.
WARNING
If any of the following conditions
occur, the SRS is not working prop-
erly, and you should immediately
have it inspected by an authorized
MITSUBISHI dealer.
•The SRS warning lamp does not illu-
minate when you start the vehicle.
•The SRS warning lamp does not go
out after several seconds.
•The SRS warning lamp illuminates
while driving.

SRS servicing
EG29G-A
The entire SRS including air bag and
pre-tensioner seat belt must be inspected
by an authorized MITSUBISHI dealer after
10 years.
WARNING
(1) Any maintenance performed on
or near the components of the
SRS must be performed only by
an authorized MITSUBISHI
dealer. Do not permit anyone
else to do service, inspection,
maintenance or repair on any
SRS components or wiring;
similarly, no part of the SRS
should ever be handled or dis-
posed of by anyone except an
authorized MITSUBISHI dealer.
Improper work on the SRS com-
ponents or wiring could result in
inadvertent deployment of the air
bags, or could render the SRS
inoperative; either situation
could result in serious injury.
(2) Do not modify your steering
wheel, seat belt retractor or any
other SRS components. For
example, replacement of the
steering wheel, or modifica-
tions to the front bumper or
body structure can adversely
affect SRS performance and lead
to possible injury.
WARNING
(3) If your vehicle has received any
front-end damage, you should
have the SRS inspected by an
authorized MITSUBISHI dealer to
ensure it is in proper working
order.
(4) On vehicles with the side air
bags, do not modify your front
seats centre pillar and centre
console.
It can adversely affect SRS per-
formance and lead to possible
injury.
Also, if you have found any tear
or open seam in the seat fabric
at the portion near the side air
bag, have the seat inspected at
an authorized MITSUBISHI
dealer.
(5) On vehicles with the side air
bags, if your vehicles has
received any damage to either
side, you should have the SRS
inspected by an authorized MIT-
SUBISHI dealer to ensure it is in
proper working order.NOTE
(1) When you transfer ownership of the
vehicle to some other person, we urge
you to alert the new owner that it is
equipped with the SRS and refer that
owner to the applicable section in this
owner’s handbook.
(2) If you junk or scrap the vehicle, we urge
you to first take the vehicle to an autho-
rized MITSUBISHI dealer so that the
SRS can be rendered safe.
