2 Quick indexAnti-lock braking system warning light

When this light comes on, the anti-lock braking system is not functioning and
only the ordinary braking system is functioning.

Park your vehicle in a safe place and stop the engine.
Test the system as described on page 3-98.

If the light does not go out after the test, or if it comes on again, we recom-
mend that you have the system checked at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer or a repair facility of your choice as soon as possible. P. 3-98
SRS warning light

It is not necessary to stop the vehicle immediately, but we recommend that
you have the airbag and the pre-tensioner seat belt system checked at an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer as soon as possible. P. 2-52
Tire pressure monitoring system warning light

If the warning light comes on, you should stop and adjust the tires to the
proper inflation pressure as soon as possible.
(See “Tire inflation pressures” on page 7-27.)
Once adjustments have been made, the warning light will go off after a few
minutes of driving.

If the warning light blinks for approximately 1 minute and then remains con-
tinuously illuminated, the system is not operating properly. If the system
returns to normal, the warning light will go off. If the warning light does not
go off, have the vehicle inspected at an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. P. 3 - 1 1 5

Seats and restraint systems
N00401600153
Your vehicle has seat belts and other features that help protect
you and your passengers in an accident.
Seat belts are the most important safety device. When worn
properly, seat belts can reduce the chance of serious injury or
death in various types of crashes. For added protection during a
severe frontal collision, your vehicle has a Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) with airbags for the driver and passen-
gers. The seats, head restraints, and door locks also are safety
equipment, which must be used correctly.
Always check the following before you drive:

That everyone in your vehicle is properly wearing their
seat belt.

That infants and small children are properly secured in
appropriate child restraint systems in the rear seat.

That all doors are fully closed and locked.

That seatbacks are upright, with head restraints properly
adjusted.
Safety equipment cannot prevent injury or death in all motor
vehicle accidents. You can help reduce the risk of injury or
death, however, by following the instructions in this manual.
Front seats
N00401800399

WARNING
!
Do not attempt to adjust the seat while driving. This
can cause loss of vehicle control and result in an
accident.
After adjusting the seat, make sure that it is securely
locked into position.
To reduce the risk to the driver of serious injury or
death during deployment of the driver’s airbag,
always properly wear the seat belt and adjust the
driver’s seat as far back as possible while maintain-
ing a position that still enables you to fully apply the
pedals, easily control the steering wheel, and safely
operate the vehicle.
To reduce the risk to the front passenger of serious
injury or death during deployment of the passen-
ger’s airbag, always properly wear the seat belt and
adjust the front passenger’s seat as far back as pos-
sible.
Always place children 12 years old and under in the
rear seat and use appropriate child restraint sys-
tems.
CAUTION
!
Make sure that the seat is adjusted by an adult. If it
is adjusted by a child, an unexpected accident might
occur.
Do not place a cushion or the like between your back
and the seatback while driving. The effectiveness of
the head restraints will be reduced in the event of an
accident.
When sliding the seats, be careful not to catch your
hand or leg.
When sliding or reclining the seat rearward, pay
careful attention to the rear seat passengers.

Extending a luggage compartment
N00405500105
NOTE

When the seatback of a front seat is reclined, return it to
the upright position before driving.
WARNING
!
Never adjust the seats to extend a luggage compart-
ment while the vehicle is in motion or on a slope.
The seats could move suddenly and cause serious
injury or an accident.
After returning a seatback to its normal position,
make sure that the seatback is firmly secured. If the
seatback is not secured, it could move and cause a
serious accident.
Do not allow anyone to ride in the luggage compart-
ment while the vehicle is in motion. People who are
not properly seated and restrained can be seriously
injured or killed in an accident.
The luggage compartment in the rear of the vehicle
should never be used as a play area by children. All
children should be properly restrained in a restraint
device that offers the maximum protection for their
size and age. Refer to “Child restraint systems” on
page 2-31.

The front passenger seat is equipped with weight
sensors. Depending on the weight detected, the front
passenger airbag is disabled or enabled. When fold-
ing the rear seats forward for increased cargo
capacity, the front passenger seat and seatback must
be adjusted to assure they are not contacting the
rear seat. In the event the front seat or seatback is
allowed to contact the folded rear seat, proper oper-
ation of the front passenger airbag system may be
affected.
CAUTION
!
In the luggage compartment, do not load the luggage
higher than the top of the seats and make sure that
the luggage is firmly secured. Restricted rear vision
or unsecured objects entering the passenger com-
partment from the luggage compartment during
sudden braking can cause serious injury or an acci-
dent.
Seatbacks should always be folded and put back into
normal position by an adult. Seat adjustments by a
child could lead to an unexpected accident.
When adjusting the seats, be careful not to catch
your hand or leg. Personal injury could result.
