CAUTION
l
When stowing the seat, hold it with your
hands and lower it slowly. Unless you
hold the seat securely, it may suddenly tip
under its own weight, trapping your
hands.
l Do not pull the belt while a person is sit-
ting on the seat. The seat could tip back-
ward, resulting in an accident.
NOTE l The
removed third seat head restraints (C)
can be fitted together and stored in the cargo
net in the luggage area. (Refer to “Cargo net”
on page 5-45.) To return
1. Use
the handle (B) to lift the entire seat. Slow-
ly tip the seat forward, then push it until it
locks securely in position. 2. Pull
the belt (D) on the back of the seatback.
With the belt pulled, raise the seatback to its
original position. 3. After
raising the seatback to its original posi-
tion, push lightly on it to confirm that it has
been secured.
4. Install the head restraints. Making a flat seat
E00404300064
By
removing the head restraints and fully reclining
the seatbacks of the seats, one large flat seat is ach-
ieved. WARNING
l Never
drive with luggage or passengers
on the flat seat. This is highly dangerous.
In a collision, people or children riding un-
restrained in these areas are more likely
to be seriously injured or killed.
Do not allow people or children to ride in
any area of your vehicle that is not equip-
ped with seats and seat belts, and make
sure that everyone travelling in your vehi-
cle is in a seat and wearing a seat belt, or
in the case of a child is strapped in a child
restraint.
In the interest of their safety, children
should not be allowed to adjust the seats. CAUTION
l
To
make a flat seat, stop the vehicle in a
safe place.
l Make sure that the seat is adjusted by an
adult. If it is adjusted by a child, an unex-
pected accident might occur.
l When sliding the seat, be sure not to
catch your hand or leg.
l Do not walk around on top of the seats af-
ter they have been laid flat.
l To ensure the seats are locked securely, at-
tempt to move them back and forth. Seat and seat belts

WARNING
l 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 any-
thing to, the instrument panel above the
glove box. It might strike and injure an oc-
cupant if the airbag inflates. WARNING
l 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 ob-
jects between the airbags and the driver
or front passenger. It could affect airbag
performance, or could cause injury when
the airbag inflates. WARNING
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 recom-
mend you to have the entire airbag sys-
tem inspected by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
