Force limiter system
E00406000209
In
the event of a collision, each force limiter sys-
tem will effectively absorb the load applied to the
seat belt to minimize the impact to the passenger. Child restraint
E00406401806
When
transporting children in your vehicle, some
type of child restraint system should always be
used according to the size of the child. This is re-
quired by law in most countries.
The regulations concerning driving with children in
the front seat may differ from country to country.
You are advised to comply with the relevant regula-
tions. WARNING
l When
possible, put children in the rear
seat. Accident statistics indicate that chil-
dren of all sizes and ages are safer when
properly restrained in the rear seat rath-
er than in the front seat.
l Holding a child in your arms is no substi-
tute for a restraint system. Failure to use
a proper restraint system can result in se-
vere or fatal injury to the child.
l Each child restraint device or fixing is to
be used only by one child.
l When attaching a child restraint to the
rear seat, place the front seatbacks in the
upright position.
Otherwise, the child could be seriously in-
jured in the event of hard braking or a col-
lision. Caution for installing the child re-
straint on vehicles with a front passen-
ger airbag
The

label shown here is attached on vehicles with a
front passenger airbag. WARNING
l Extreme Hazard!
Do

not use a rearward facing child re-
straint on a seat protected by an airbag in
front of it!
NOTE l The

labels may be in different positions de-
pending on the vehicle model.
Use rearward facing child restraints in the
rear seat or turn off the front passenger’s air-
bag ON-OFF switch (if so equipped). (Refer
to “To turn an airbag off” on page 2-27.) Seat and seat belts

Front passenger’s airbag ONWARNING
l A
REARWARD FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT must NOT be used in the front
passenger seat if the front passenger’s air-
bag has not been deactivated.
The force of an inflating airbag could kill
or cause serious injuries to the child. A
rearward facing child restraint should be
used in the rear seat.
l A FORWARD FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT should be used in the rear seat
whenever possible; if used in the front
seat, turn off the front passenger’s airbag
ON-OFF switch. Infants and small children
E00406600609
When

transporting infants and small children in
your vehicle, follow the instruction given below. Instruction:
l For

small infants, an infant carrier should be
used. For small children whose height when
seated allows the shoulder belt to lie in con-
tact with the face or the throat, a child seat
should be used.
l The child restraint system should be appropri-
ate for the child’s weight and height and prop-
erly fit in the vehicle. For a higher degree of
safety: THE CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
SHOULD BE INSTALLED IN THE REAR
SEAT. NOTE
l Before

purchasing a child restraint system,
try installing it in the rear seat to make sure
there is a good fit. Because of the location of
the seat belt buckles and the shape of the seat
cushion, it may be difficult to securely install
some manufacturer’s child restraint systems.
If the child restraint system can be pulled for-
ward or to either side easily on the seat cush-
ion after the seat belt has been tightened,
choose another manufacturer’s child restraint
system. WARNING
l When
installing a child restraint system,
refer to the instructions provided by the
manufacturer of the restraint system. Fail-
ure to do so can result in severe or fatal
injury to the child.
l After installation, push and pull the child
restraint system back and forth, and side
to side, to see that it is properly secured.
If the child restraint system is not instal-
led securely, it may cause injury to the
child or other occupants in the case of ac-
cident or sudden stops.
l When the child restraint system is not in
use, keep your child restraint system se-
cured with the seat belt or remove it from
the vehicle in order to prevent it from be-
ing thrown around inside the vehicle dur-
ing an accident.
Depending on the seating position in the ve-
hicle

and the child restraint system that you
have, the child restraint can be attached us-
ing one of the following two locations: Seat and seat belts

Seat belt inspection
E00406300475
l Check
the belts for cuts, worn or frayed web-
bing and for cracked or deformed metallic
parts. Replace the belt assembly if it is defec-
tive.
l A dirty belt should be cleaned with neutral de-
tergent in warm water. After rinsing in water,
let it dry in the shade. Do not attempt to
bleach or re-dye the belts because this will af-
fect their characteristics. WARNING
l We
recommend you to have all seat belt
assemblies including retractors and at-
taching hardware inspected after any col-
lision. We recommend that seat belt as-
semblies in use during a collision be re-
placed unless the collision was minor and
the belts show no damage and continue to
operate properly.
l Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of the seat belt assemblies; we recom-
mend you to have this work done by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point. Incorrect repair or replace-
ment could reduce the effectiveness of the
belts and could result in serious injury in
the event of a collision.
l Once the pretensioner has been activated,
it cannot be re-used.
It must be replaced together with the re-
tractor. Supplemental restraint system
(SRS) - airbag E00407201944
The

information for SRS airbags includes impor-
tant information concerning the driver’s and front
passenger’s airbags, the driver’s knee airbag, the
side airbags and the curtain airbags.
The SRS airbags are designed to supplement the pri-
mary protection of the driver and front passenger
side seat belt systems by providing those occupants
with protection against head and chest injuries in
certain moderate-to-severe frontal collisions.

The SRS driver’s knee airbag (if so equipped) is de-
signed to supplement the primary protection of the
driver’s seat belt system. It can reduce the forward
movement of the driver’s lower legs and provide in-
creased overall body protection in certain moderate-
to-severe frontal collisions.

The SRS side airbags (if so equipped) are designed
to supplement properly worn seat belts and provide
the driver and front passenger with protection
against chest and abdomen injuries in certain mod-
erate-to-severe side impact collisions.

The SRS curtain airbags (if so equipped) are de-
signed to supplement properly worn seat belts and
provide the driver and passenger with protection
against head injuries in certain moderate-to-severe
side impact collisions.

The SRS is NOT a substitute for the seat belts. To
ensure the maximum protection during all types of
collisions and accidents, all occupants, including
the passengers as well as the driver, must wear
their seat belts. How the Supplemental Restraint Sys-
tem works
