Safety mechanism E00303800090
If a hand or head is trapped in the closing sunroof,
it will reopen automatically.
Nonetheless, make sure

that nobody puts their head
or hand out of the sunroof when opening or closing.
The opened sunroof will become operational after
a few seconds.

If the safety mechanism should be activated 5 or
more times consecutively, normal closing of the sun-
roof will be aborted. In such an event, the follow-
ing steps should be taken: 1. Press the switch (2) repeatedly, setting thesunroof in the tilt up condition.
2. Once the tilt up condition has been reached, press and hold the switch (2) for a period of
at least 3 seconds.
3. Press the switch (2) once again to fully close the sunroof.
4. After pressing the switch (3) to perform full opening, press the switch (2) to fully close
the sunroof. NOTE
l The
safety mechanism

can be activated if the
driving conditions or other circumstances
cause the sunroof to be subjected to a physi-
cal shock similar to that caused by a trapped
hand or head.
l Avoid stopping the sunroof before it reaches
the opening or closing end during operations
in steps 3 and 4 above. If this should acciden-
tally happen, repeat the process from step 1.
5. Following this action, it should be possible to operate the sunroof in the normal manner. CAUTION
l
The safety
mechanism
is cancelled just be-
fore the sunroof is fully closed. This al-
lows the sunroof to close completely.
Therefore be especially careful that no fin-
gers are trapped in the sunroof.
NOTE l The
sunroof stops

just before reaching the
fully open position.
If the vehicle is driven with the sunroof in
this position, wind throb is lower than with
the sunroof fully open.
l When leaving the vehicle unattended, make
sure you close the sunroof and remove the ig-
nition key.

zen closed (after snow fall or during extreme
cold).

How the Supplemental Restraint Sys-
tem works
E00407300922
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 ignition
switch is in the “ON” or “START” position.

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. CAUTION
l
Airbags inflate
at
an extremely rapid
speed. In certain situations, contact with
inflating airbags can result in abrasions,
light cuts, bruises, and the like. WARNING
l IT IS VERY
IMPORTANT TO BE PROP-
ERLY 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. WARNING
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 in-
fants and children. WARNING
l 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. Seat and seat belts

WARNING
l The side airbags and curtain airbags are
designed to supplement the driver and pas-
senger seat belts in certain side impacts.
Seat belts should always be worn proper-
ly, and the driver and passenger should
sit well back and upright without leaning
against the window or door.
l The side airbag and curtain airbag inflate
with great force. The driver and passen-
ger should not put their arms out of the
window, and should not lean against the
door, in order to reduce the risk of seri-
ous or possible fatal injury from the de-
ploying side airbag and curtain airbag. WARNING
l Do not
allow
any rear seat occupant to
hold onto the seatback of either front
seat, in order to reduce the risk of injury
from a deploying side airbag. Special
care should be taken with children. WARNING
l Do not place
any objects near or in front
of the seatback of either front seat. They
could interfere with proper side airbag in-
flation, and also could cause injury if
thrown free by side airbag deployment.
l Do not place stickers, labels or additional
trim on the seatback of either front seat.
They could interfere with proper side air-
bag inflation.
l Do not install seat covers on seats with
side airbags. Do not re-cover the seats
with side airbags. They could interfere
with proper side airbag inflation.
l Do not attach a microphone (A) or any
other device or object around the part
where the curtain airbags activate such
as on the windscreen, side door glass,
front and rear pillars and roof side or as-
sist grips. When the curtain airbags in-
flate, the microphone or other device or
object will be hurled with great force or
the curtain airbags may not activate cor-
rectly, resulting in death or serious injury. WARNING
l Do not put a hanger or any heavy or poin-
ted object on the coat hook.
If the curtain airbag was activated, any
such item could be propelled away with
great force and could prevent the curtain
airbag from inflating correctly. Hang
clothes directly on the coat hook (without
using a hanger).
Make sure there are no heavy or sharp ob-
jects in the pockets of clothes that you
hang on the coat hook.
l Do not allow a child to lean against or
close to the front door even if the child is
seated in a child restraint system.
The child’s head should also not lean
against or be close to the area where the
side airbag and curtain airbag are loca-
ted. It is dangerous if the side airbag and
curtain airbag inflate.
Failure to follow all of these instructions
could lead to serious or fatal injury to the
child.
l We recommend work around and on the
side airbags and curtain airbags system
to be done by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS

Precautions to observe when using wip-
ers and washers E00507600027
l If the
moving
wipers become blocked by ice
or other deposits on the glass, the motor may
burn out even if the wiper switch is turned to
OFF. If obstruction occurs, park your vehicle
in a safe place, turn off the ignition, and
clean the deposits from the glass so that the
wipers operate smoothly.
l Do not use the wipers when the glass is dry.
They may scratch the glass surface and the
blades wear out prematurely. Instruments and controls

l
Before using
the wipers in cold weather,
check that the wiper blades are not frozen on-
to the glass. The motor may burn out if the
wipers are used with the blades frozen onto
the glass.
l Avoid using the washer continuously for
more than 20 seconds. Do not operate the
washer when the fluid reservoir is empty.
Otherwise, the motor may burn out.
l Periodically check the level of washer fluid
in the reservoir and refill if required.
During cold weather, add a recommended
washer solution that will not freeze in the
washer reservoir. Failure to do so could re-
sult in loss of washer function and frost dam-
age to the system components. Wiper de-icer switch*
