WARNINGlIn order to reduce the risk of serious or fa-
tal injury in an accident, always wear
your own seat belt. Do not allow anyone
to ride in your vehicle unless he or she is
also seated and wearing a seat belt. Chil-
dren should additionally be restrained in
a secure child restraint system.
NOTE
l When luggage is placed on the front passen-
ger seat, a sensor in the seat cushion may, de-
pending on the weight and position of the lug-
gage, cause the warning tone to sound and
the warning lamp to come on (Double cab).
Adjustable seat belt anchor (front
seats)* E00405000299
The seat belt anchor height can be adjusted.
Move the seat belt anchor down with the lock knob
(A) depressed. To move the anchor up, slide it with-
out depressing the lock knob (A).
Anchor downAnchor up
WARNINGl When adjusting the seat belt anchor, set
it at a position that is sufficiently high so
that the belt will make full contact with
your shoulder but will not touch your neck.Lap belts* E00405100128
The lap belts should be adjusted by holding the belt
and latch plate at right angles to each other, and
then pulling the belt as shown in the illustration to
a snug fit around the occupant.
1- Tighten
2- Loosen

While holding the latch plate, insert the latch plate
into the buckle until a “click” is heard.
Pregnant women restraint E00405600064WARNINGlSeat belts work for everyone, including
pregnant women. Pregnant women
should use the available seat belts. This
will reduce the likelihood of injury to
both the woman and the unborn child.
The lap belt should be worn across the
thighs and as snug against the hips as pos-
sible, but not across the waist. Consult
your doctor if you have any additional
questions or concerns.

Seat belt pretensioner system andforce limiter system* E00405700283
The driver’s and front passenger’s seat equipped
with an airbag has a pretensioner seat belt.Pretensioner system E00405801089
The pretensioner system will retract their respec-
tive seat belts instantaneously, thus maximizing the
seat belt’s effectiveness, if there is a frontal impact
severe enough to injure the driver and/or front pas-
senger and the ignition switch is in the “ON” or
“START” position.
The seat belt pretensioner includes the following
components:
1- Front impact sensors
2- Seat belt pretensioners
3- Airbag control unit
WARNINGl To obtain the best results from your pre-
tensioner seat belt, make sure you have ad-
justed your seat correctly and wear your
seat belt properly.CAUTIONl Installation of audio equipment or re-
pairs in the vicinity of the pretensioner
seat belts or floor console must be per-
formed in line with MITSUBISHI
MOTORS guidelines. It is important to
do so because the work could affect the
pretensioner systems.
l If you need to scrap the vehicle, please con-
sult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point. It is important to do
so because unexpected activation of the
pretensioner seat belts could cause inju-
ries.
NOTE
l The pretensioner seat belts will be activated
if the vehicle suffers a severe frontal impact,
even if the seat belts are not worn.
l The pretensioner seat belts are designed to
work only once. After the pretensioner seat
belts have been activated, we recommend
you have them replaced by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
SRS warning lamp E00405900126
This warning lamp is shared by the SRS airbags
and the pretensioner seat belts.
Refer to “SRS warning lamp” on page 2-38.Force limiter system E00406000078
In the event of a collision, each force limiter sys-
tem will effectively absorb the load applied to the
seat belt so as to minimize the impact to the passen-
ger.Seat and seat belts

WARNINGlA FORWARD FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT should not be used in the front
passenger seat whenever possible; if used
in the front passenger seat, adjust the
seat to the most rearward position. Fail-
ure to do so could kill or cause serious in-
juries to the child.WARNINGl Older children should be seated, properly
wearing the seat belt, with an appropri-
ate booster seat if needed.Caution for installing the child re-
straint on vehicles with a front passen-
ger airbag E00408800272
The label shown here is attached on vehicles with a
front passenger airbag.WARNINGl Extreme Hazard!
Do not use a rearward facing child re-
straint on a seat protected by an airbag in
front of it!How the Supplemental Restraint Sys-
tem works E00407301352
The SRS includes the following components:
1- Airbag module (Driver)
2- Front passenger’s airbag OFF indication lamp
3- Airbag module (Passenger)
4- Front impact sensors
5- Airbag control unit
6- Front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch
7- Side airbag modules
8- Side impact sensors
9- Curtain airbag modules

The airbags will operate only when the ignition
switch is in the “ON” or “START” position.
When the airbag control unit detect an impact of suf-
ficient frontal or side force, it sends an ignition sig-
nal to the airbag modules to ignite materials in the
inflator and generate gas and inflate the airbags.
The airbags deployment produces a sudden, loud
noise, and releases some smoke and powder, but
these conditions are not injurious, and do not indi-
cate 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 deployment,
so there is little danger of obscured vision.
The time required from the sensors detecting an im-
pact to deflation of the airbags after deployment is
shorter than a blink of an eye.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.Front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF
switch E00410100184
The front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch can
be used to disable the front passenger’s airbag. If
you have a rearward facing child restraint system
that cannot be fitted to any seat other than the front
passenger seat, be sure to turn OFF the front passen-
ger’s airbag ON-OFF switch before using it. (Refer
to “To turn an airbag off” on page 2-30.)
The front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch is lo-
cated in the glove box.WARNINGl 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” position.
The SRS airbag system is designed to
retain enough voltage to deploy the air-
bag.WARNING• 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.To turn an airbag off E00410600219
To turn an airbag off, follow these steps:
1.Insert the key into the key opening of the ap-
propriate front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF
switch, and turn that airbag ON-OFF switch
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” position.
The front passenger’s airbag OFF indication lamp
will stay on to show that the front passenger’s air-
bag is not operational. ( “Front passenger’s airbag
OFF indication lamp” on page 2-31)

Headlamps
NOTE l Do not leave the headlamps and other lamps
on for a long time while the engine is station-
ary (not running). A run-down battery could
result.
l When it rains or when the vehicle has been
washed, the inside of the lens sometimes be-
comes foggy. This is the same phenomenon
as when window glass mists up on a humid
day, and does not indicate a functional prob-
lem. When the lamp is switched on, the heat
will remove the fog. However, if water gath-
ers inside the lamp, we recommend you to
have it checked.Type 1

on and off automatically in accordance
with outside light level. All lamps turn
off automatically when the ignition
switch is turned to the “OFF” position.Position, tail, licence plate and instru-
ment panel lamps onHeadlamps and other lamps go on
NOTE
l The sensitivity of the automatic on/off con-
trol can be adjusted.
For further information, we recommend you
to consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point.
l When the headlamps are turned off by the au-
tomatic on/off control with the ignition
switch in the “ON” position, the front fog
lamps (if so equipped) and rear fog lamp also
go off. When the headlamps are subsequent-
ly turned back on by the automatic on/off con-
trol, the front fog lamps also come on but the
rear fog lamp stays off. If you wish to turn
the rear fog lamp back on, operate the switch
again.
l Do not cover the sensor (A) for the automat-
ic on/off control by affixing a sticker or label
to the windscreen.
