WARNINGS REGARDING SERVICING OF SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) EQUIPPED VEHICLES
WARNING!
(1) Improper service or maintenance of any component of the SRS, or any SRS-related component, can lead to personal
injury or death to service personnel (from inadvertent firing of the air bag) or to the driver and passenger (from rendering
the SRS inoperative).
(2) Service or maintenance of any SRS component or SRS-related component must be performed only at an authorized
MITSUBISHI dealer.
(3) MITSUBISHI dealer personnel must thoroughly review this manual, and especially its GROUP 52B - Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) before beginning any service or maintenance of any component of the SRS or any SRS-related
component.
NOTE
The SRS includes the following components: SRS-ECU, SRS warning lamp, air bag module, clock spring and interconnecting
wiring. Other SRS-related components (that may have to be removed/installed in connection with SRS service or maintenance) are
indicated in the table of contents by an asterisk (*).

STEERING -General Information37A-2
GENERAL INFORMATION
The system has been equipped with the MOMO
leather 3-spoke-type steering wheel with built-in
SRS airbag.
The steering column is equipped with tilt steering
mechanism.
The power steering is an integral rack and piniontype that combines the steering gear and linkage
into one light-weight and compact assembly.
The steering system uses a vane oil pump with
a fluid flow control system, so that steering effort
varies with engine speed.
