CAUTION
l
When the engine is not running, put the
operation mode in OFF. Leaving the oper-
ation mode in ON or ACC for a long time
when the engine is not running may cause
the battery to be discharged, making it im-
possible to start the engine, lock and un-
lock the steering wheel.
l When the battery is disconnected, the cur-
rent operation mode is memorized. After
reconnecting the battery, the memorized
mode is selected automatically. Before dis-
connecting the battery for repair or re-
placement, make sure to put the opera-
tion mode in OFF.
Be careful if you are not sure which oper-
ation mode the vehicle is in when the bat-
tery is run down.
l The operation mode cannot be changed
from OFF to ACC or ON if the keyless op-
eration key is not detected to be in the ve-
hicle. Refer to “Keyless operation system:
Operating range for starting the engine
and changing the operation mode” on
page 1-09.

When the engine switch is pressed while the opera-
tion mode is in ACC, the power is supplied again
to those devices. NOTE
l It is possible to modify functions as follows:
• The

Pregnant women restraint
E00405600077WARNING
l Seat 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 and
force limiter system E00405700166
The
driver’s seat and front passenger’s seat each
have a seat belt equipped with a pretensioner system.
Pretensioner system E00405801135
When the ignition switch or the operation mode is
under
the following conditions, if there is a frontal
impact or a side impact (vehicles equipped with
SRS side airbags and SRS curtain airbags) severe
enough to injure the driver and/or front passenger,
the pretensioner system will retract their respective
seat belts instantaneously, thus maximizing the seat
belt’s effectiveness.
[Except for vehicles equipped with keyless opera-
tion system]
The ignition switch is in the “ON” or “START” po-
sition.
[Vehicles equipped with keyless operation system]
The operation mode is in ON. WARNING
l 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. CAUTION
l
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 unexpec-
ted activation of the pretensioner seat
belts could cause injuries.
NOTE l The
pretensioner seat belts will be activated
if the vehicle suffers a severe frontal impact
or a severe side impact (vehicles equipped
with SRS side airbags and SRS curtain air-
bags), 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 it replaced by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.

Air purifier
E00708400561
An
air filter has been incorporated into the air con-
ditioning so that pollen and dust are cleaned from
the air.
Replace the air filter periodically as its ability to
clean the air will be reduced as it collects pollen
and dirt. For the maintenance interval, refer to the
“SERVICE BOOKLET”.
NOTE
l Operation in certain conditions such as driv-
ing on a dusty road and frequent use of the
air conditioning can lead to reduction of serv-
ice life of the filter. When you feel that the
air flow is lower than normal or when the
windscreen or windows start to fog up easily,
replace the air filter.
We recommend you to have it checked. Audio system*

For information on operations of the audio system
for vehicles equipped with MITSUBISHI Multi-Co-
munication system (MMCS), refer to the separate
owner’s manual.
The audio system can only be used when the igni-
tion switch or the operation mode is in ON or ACC. NOTE
l To
listen to the audio system while the en-
gine is not running, turn the ignition switch
to the “ACC” position or put the operation
mode in ACC.
If the ignition switch or the operation mode
is left in ACC, the accessory power will auto-
matically turn off after a certain period of
time and you will no longer be able to use
the audio system. The accessory power
comes on again if the ignition switch or the
engine switch is operated with it in the
“ACC” position. Refer to “ACC power auto-
cutout function” on pages 1-13 and 4-13.
l If a cellular phone is used inside the vehicle,
it may create noise from the audio equip-
ment. This does not mean that anything is
wrong with your audio equipment. In such a
case, use the cellular phone at a place as far
away as possible from the audio equipment.
l If foreign objects or water get into the audio
equipment, or if smoke or a strange odour
comes from it, immediately turn off the au-
dio system. We recommend you to have it
checked. Never try to repair it by yourself.
Avoid continuous usage without inspection
by a qualified person.
l The audio amplifier (if so equipped) is loca-
ted under the front right seat. Do not subject
the amplifier to a strong impact. It could dam-
age the amplifier or malfunctioning could re-
sult. For pleasant driving
