The seat belt pre-tensioner system includes the following components:
The airbag control unit
monitors the readiness
of the electronic parts of the system wheneverthe ignition switch or the operation mode is under the following conditions. These include all of the item
s listed above a
nd all related
wiring. [Except for vehicles equipped with the F. A . S . T. - k e y ]The ignition switch is in the “ON” or “START” position. [Vehicles equipped with the F.A.S.T.-key] The operation mode is in ON. The seat belt pre-tens
ioners will operate
under the same conditions
as the airbag con-
trol unit. When the seat belt pre-tensioners activate, some smoke is released
and a loud noise will
be heard. The smoke is
not harmful, but care
should be taken not to in
tentionally inhale it,
as it may cause some
temporary irritation to
people with respiratory problems.Even in the event of a severe impact, the pre- tensioners will
not operate if the seat belts are
not fastened. The seat be
lt pre-tensioners may
not activate in certai
n collisions, even though
the vehicle may appear
to be severely dam-
aged. Such non-activation does not mean thatsomething is wrong with the seat belt pre-ten- sioner system, but rather that the collision forces were not severe
enough to activate the
system.

bag control unit controls deployment of the passenger’s front airbag in accordance withthe information it receives from this system. The passenger’s front airbag will not deploy in an impact when the system senses no occu-pant on the front passenger’s seat or a child in a child restraint system. In this case, the pas- senger airbag off indi
cator will come on.
Refer to “Passenger’s ai
rbag off indicator” on
page 4-38. If there is a problem involving the passen- ger’s seat occupant cl
assification sensor sys-
tem, the SRS warning light in the instrumentpanel will come on. Refer to “SRS warning light/display” on page 4-39.

The passenger airbag off indicator is located in the instrument panel. The indicator normally comes on when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the operation mode is put in ON, and goes out a few seconds later.
In the following situ-
ations, the indicator will stay on to show that the passenger front airb
ag is not operational.
The front passenger’s seat is not occupied.

[Vehicles equipped with the F.A.S.T.-key]The operation mode is in ON.• The SRS warning light does not go outafter several seconds.
• The SRS warning li
ght comes on while
you are driving.
To ensure that the passenger’s seat occu- pant classification sensor system can sense correctly, observe the following instruc-tions. Failure to follow these instructions can adversely affect
the performance of
the passenger’s airbag system.• Adjust the seat to the correct position,and sit well back
against the seatback.
Refer to “Front seats” on page 4-4.• Do not recline the seatback more thannecessary.• Never have more th

The system senses that a child is using a child restraint system
on the front passen-
ger’s seat.
When the passenger’s se

There is a Supplemen
tal Restraint System
(SRS) warning light on the instrument panel. The system checks itself every time the igni- tion switch is turned to the “ON” position orthe operation mode is put in ON. The SRS warning light will come on for several sec-
onds and then go out. This is normal and means the system is working properly.If there is a problem
involving one or more of
the SRS components, the warning light will come on and stay on. At
the same time, the
warning display will appear on the informa- tion screen in the multi information display (Type 1 only).The SRS warning light/display is shared by the SRS airbag and the se
at belt pre-tensioner
system.
WA R N I N G If any of the following conditions occur, you should immediat
ely have the airbag
system in your vehicle inspected by anauthorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer as
soon as possible:• The passenger’s airbag off indicatorcomes on when an adul
t is sitting on the
front passenger seat.• The passenger’s airbag off indicator doesnot come on when the front passengerseat is not occupied.• The passenger’s airbag off indicator doesnot come on when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the oper- ation mode is put in ON.• The passenger’s airbag off indicator doesnot come on when a
child is in a child
restraint system on the front passenger’s seat.• The passenger’s airbag off indicatorcomes on and goes out repeatedly.
Do not attach any accessory to your vehi- cle that makes the passenger’s airbag offindicator difficult or
impossible to see.

N00562201149
You can program new keys to the system if you have two valid (alr
eady registered) keys
and blank immobilizer ke
y (specially cut for
your vehicle at your Mitsubishi Motorsdealer) by doing the following: 1. Insert the first valid key into the ignition switch and turn the key to the “ON” posi-tion for 5 seconds. 2. Turn the key to the “OFF” or “LOCK” position and remove the first key.3. Within 30 seconds of removing the first key, insert the second valid key into the ignition and turn it to the “ON” position.About 10 seconds la
ter, the immobilizer
display will start to blink.
4. When the immobilizer display starts blinking, turn the second valid key to the“OFF” or “LOCK” position and remove it. Within 30 seconds after doing so, insert a blank immobilizer ke
y into the ignition
switch and turn it to the “ON” position. Perform this operation no more than 30 seconds after the immobilizer displaystarts blinking. When registration of the ID code is complete, the immobilizer dis- play will come on for 30 seconds then go off. If an error occurs, the blinking immo- bilizer display will
go off during the pro-
cedure. Type 1 Type 2 5. If you wish to register another key, per- form the process again from step 1.
Customer key programming (Except for vehicles sold in Canada)
NOTE
Perform the operation when the interrupt dis- play screen is not show
ing. The interrupt dis-
play screen may prevent you from seeing theimmobilizer display. It is not possible to
register a key if:
• the immobilizer disp
lay goes off during the
procedure • the immobilizer disp
lay does not come on
within 30 seconds after step 4.
The procedure will be terminated automati- cally if: • a period of 30 seconds or longer elapses from the moment when the first key isturned to the “OFF” or “LOCK” position to the moment when the second key is turned to the “ON” position • a period of 30 seconds or longer elapses from the moment when the second key isturned to the “OFF” or “LOCK” position to the moment when the blank immobilizer key is turned to the “ON” position
To use the new remote control transmitters, it is necessary to register
the key with both the
electronic immobilizer
and keyless entry sys-
tem. Also refer to “Keyless entry system: Cus-tomer remote control transmitter program- ming” on page 5-9.
