Installation of accessories
E00200300875
We recommend you to consult
your MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
l The installation of accessories, optional
parts, should only be carried out within the
limits prescribed by law in your country, and
in accordance with the guidelines fitting in-
structions and warnings contained within the
documents accompanying the parts or acces-
sories.
l Improper installation of electrical compo-
nents may cause an electrical fire if incorrect-
ly fitted. Please refer to the Modification/al-
teration to the electrical or fuel systems sec-
tion within this owner’s manual.
l Using a cellular phone or radio set inside the
vehicle without an external antenna may
cause electrical system interference, which
could lead to unsafe vehicle operation.
l Tyres and wheels which do not meet specifi-
cations must not be used.
Refer to the “Specifications” section for in-
formation regarding wheel and tyre sizes.
l When fitting accessories, ensure that maxi-
mum gross vehicle weight and maximum
axle weight are not exceeded.
Important points!
Due to large number of accessory and replacement
parts of different manufactures available in the mar-
ket, it is not possible, not only for MITSUBISHI
MOTORS, but also for a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point, to check whether the at-
tachment or installation of such parts affects the
overall safety of your MITSUBISHI-vehicle.
Even when such parts are officially authorized, for
example by a “general
operators
permit” (an ap-
praisal for the part) or through the execution of the
part in an officially approved manner of construc-
tion, or when a single operation permit following
the attachment or installation of such parts, it can-
not be deduced from that alone, that the driving safe-
ty of your vehicle has not been affected.

Consider also that there basically exists no liability
on the part of the appraiser or the official. Only in
the case of parts (MITSUBISHI MOTORS original
replacement or exchange parts as well as
MITSUBISHI MOTORS genuine accessories) that
are recommended and released by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point and that are at-
tached or installed by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point can you assume, that op-
timal safety has been provided. The same also per-
tains to modifications of MITSUBISHI vehicle
with respect to the production specifications. For
your own safety, in such cases, you should only un-
dertake modifications according to the recommen-
dations of a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point. Modification/alterations to the
electrical or fuel systems E00200400238
MITSUBISHI MOTORS CORPORATION has al-
ways manufactured safe,
high quality vehicles. In
order to maintain this safety and quality, it is impor-
tant that any accessory that is to be fitted, or any
modifications carried out which involve the electri-
cal or fuel systems, should be carried out in accord-
ance with MITSUBISHI guidelines. CAUTION
l
If the wiring interferes
with
any part of
the vehicle bodywork or improper instal-
lation methods are used, i.e. protective
fuses not installed, etc.), electronic devi-
ces may be adversely affected, possibly re-
sulting in an electrical fire or other fail-
ures that may cause an accident. General information

Safety mechanism
E00303800029
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 is activated 5 or more
times consecutively or the switch (1) is kept press-
ed for 10 seconds or longer with the sunroof station-
ary in the fully tilted up position, normal closing of
the sunroof will be aborted. In such an event, you
should take the following steps: 1. Press the switch (1) repeatedly until the sun-roof has been fully tilt up.
2. Once the fully tilt up position has been reached, press again and hold the switch (1)
for at least 3 seconds.
3. 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.
If this should accidentally happen, repeat the
process from step 1. 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.

it should

be possible
to operate the sunroof in the normal manner.

Seat adjustment
E00400300200
Adjust the driver’s seat so
that you are comfortable
and that you can reach the pedals, steering wheel,
switches etc. while retaining a clear field of vision. WARNING
l Do not attempt to
adjust
the seat while
driving. This can cause loss of vehicle con-
trol and result in an accident. After ad-
justments are made, ensure the seating is
locked in position by attempting to move
the seat forward and rearward without us-
ing the adjusting mechanism.
l It is extremely dangerous to ride in the
cargo area (inside or outside) of a vehicle.
Also, the cargo area and rear seats should
never be used as a play area by children.
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. WARNING
l To minimize the risk of
personal injury
in the event of a collision or sudden brak-
ing, the seatbacks should always be in the
almost upright position while the vehicle
is in motion. The protection provided by
the seat belts may be reduced significant-
ly when the seatback is reclined. There is
greater risk that the passenger will slide
under the seat belt, resulting in serious in-
jury, when the seatback is reclined. CAUTION
l
Make
sure the
seat is
adjusted by an
adult or with adult supervision for cor-
rect and safe operation.
l Do not place a cushion or the like be-
tween your back and the seatback while
driving. The effectiveness of the head re-
straints will be reduced in the event of an
accident.
l When sliding the seats, be careful not to
catch your hand or foot.
l When sliding or reclining the seat rear-
ward, pay careful attention to the rear
seat passengers. (Double cab and Club
cab) Front seat

dren should additionally be restrained in
a secure child restraint system.

sible, but not across the waist. Consult
your doctor if you have any additional
questions or concerns. Seat and seat belts
