The front airbags ARE NOT DESIGNED TO DEPLOY
when …The front airbags are not designed to deploy in situations
where they cannot provide protection to the occupants.
Typical situations are shown in the illustration.
Because the front airbags do not protect the occupants in all
types of collisions, be sure to always wear the seat belts prop-
erly.

Curtain airbag system
N00419200129
Your vehicle is equipped with a curtain airbag in the front pil-
lar, the rear pillar and the side sections of the roof.
The curtain airbag is designed to inflate only on the side of the
vehicle that is impacted, even with no passenger in the seat.
Also, when the airbag control unit detects rollover of the vehi-
cle, the curtain airbags will deploy.
WA R N I N G
!
Side airbags and curtain airbags can cause serious
injury or death to anyone too close to the airbag
when it deploys. To reduce the risk of injury from a
deploying side airbag or curtain airbag, driver and
front passenger must be properly restrained and
seated well back, upright, and in the middle of the
seat. Do not lean against the door.

!
In order to reduce the risk of injury from a deploy-
ing side airbag, do not allow any second row seat
passengers to hold onto the back of either front seat.
Special care should be taken with children.
Do not place any objects around the area where the
side airbags deploy. Such objects can interfere with
proper side airbag deployment, and cause injury
during deployment of the side airbag.
Do not place stickers, labels or additional trim on
the back of either front seat. They can interfere with
proper side airbag deployment.
WA R N I N G
!
Do not attach a microphone (A) or any other object
around the part where the curtain airbag (B)
deploys, such as on the windshield, side door glass or
front and rear pillars and roof side rail. When the
curtain airbag inflates, the microphone or other
object may be hurled with great force or the curtain
airbag may not inflate correctly, resulting in death
or serious injury.

!
Do not put a hanger or any heavy or pointed 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 objects in the pockets of clothes
that you hang on the coat hook.
Do not install seat covers or re-cover seats that have
side airbags. Covers can interfere with proper side
airbag deployment and adversely affect side airbag
performance.
Never install a rear-facing child restraint system in
the front passenger seat. Rear-facing child restraint
systems MUST ONLY be used in the rear seat.
Front-facing child restraint systems should also be
used ONLY in the rear seat. If a front-facing child
restraint system must be used in the front passenger
seat, move the seat as far back as possible, and make
sure that the child stays in the child restraint system,
properly restrained and away from the door.
Do not allow a child to lean against or sit close to the
passenger 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 section of the seatback
where the side airbag and curtain airbag are
located. It is dangerous if the side airbag or curtain
airbag deploys. Failure to follow all of these instruc-
tions could lead to serious injury or death to the
child.

Work done on or in the vicinity of the side airbag or
curtain airbag components should be done only by
an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. There is a
risk of a serious injury or death. Improper work
methods can cause accidental side airbag or curtain
airbag deployment, or render a side airbag or cur-
tain airbag inoperable. Either of these situations
could result in serious injury or death.
Do not place luggage heavier than the specified on
the roof carrier.
Such luggage may cause the curtain airbags to
inflate accidentally, which could result in serious
injury or death.

NOTE
When you transfer ownership of the vehicle to another
person, we urge you to alert the new owner that it is
equipped with the SRS and refer that owner to the applica-
ble sections in this owner’s manual.

If you decide to junk or scrap your vehicle, we urge you to
first take it to an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer so
that the SRS can be made safe for disposal.

If any of the following parts needs to be modified for use
by a handicapped person, the advanced airbag system will
be greatly affected. Please consult an authorized Mitsub-
ishi Motors dealer.
• Driver’s seat
• Front passenger seat
• Front seat belt
• Steering wheel
• Instrument panel
Do not modify your front seats, center pillar or cen-
ter console. Such modifications can adversely affect
SRS performance and may lead to injury.
Also, if you discover any tear or open seam in the
seat fabric near the side airbag, have the seat
inspected by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer.
If you have found any scratch, crack or damage to
the portion of the front and rear pillars and roof side
rail, you should have the SRS inspected by an autho-
rized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
