WARNINGlDo not attach accessories to, or put them
in front of, the windscreen. These objects
could restrict the airbag inflation, or strike and injure an occupant if the air-
bags inflate.
l Do not attach additional keys or accesso-
ries (hard, pointed or heavy objects) tothe ignition key. Such objects could pre-
vent the driver’s knee airbag from inflat-
ing normally or could be propelled and
cause serious injury if the airbag inflates.
l Do not attach accessories to the lower
portion of the driver’s side instrument panel. Such objects could prevent the
driver’s knee airbag from inflating nor-
mally or could be propelled and cause se- rious injury if the airbag inflates.WARNINGl Do not put packages, pets or other objects
between the airbags and the driver orfront passenger. It could affect airbagperformance, or could cause injury when the airbag inflates.
l Right after the airbag inflation, several
airbag system components will be hot. Do
not touch these components. There is a danger of being burnt.
l The airbag system is designed to work on-
ly once. Once the airbags have deployed, they will not work again. They must
promptly be replaced, and we recommend you to have the entire airbag system in-
spected by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.Side airbag system*
E00407600303
The side airbags (A) are contained in the
driver and front passenger seatbacks.
The side airbag is designed to inflate only on
the side of the vehicle that is impacted, evenwith no passenger in the front seat.
The label shown here is attached to the seat- backs with a side airbag.
Supplemental restraint system (SRS) - airbag
4-32OGAE15E5Seat and seat belts4

WARNINGlDo not allow any rear seat occupant to
hold onto the seatback of either front seat,
in order to reduce risk of injury from the
deploying side airbags. Special care
should be taken with children.
l Do not place any objects near or in front
of the seatback of either front seat. They could interfere with proper side airbag in-
flation, and also could cause injury if thrown free by side airbag deployment.
l Do not place stickers, labels or additional
trim on the seatback of either front seat.
They could interfere with proper side air- bag inflation.
l Do not install seat covers on seats with
side airbags. Do not re-cover seats that have side airbags. This could interfere
with proper side airbag inflation.
l Do not attach a microphone (A) or any
other device or object around the part where the curtain airbags (B) activate
such as on the windscreen, side door glass, front and rear pillars and roof side or as- sist grips. When the curtain airbags in-
flate, the microphone or other device or
object will be hurled with great force or the curtain airbags may not activate cor-
rectly, resulting in death or serious injury.WARNINGl Do not put a hanger or any heavy or poin-
ted 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 in-
flating 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.
l Never install a rearward facing child re-
straint in the front passenger seat. A for-
ward facing child restraint should be used
in the rear seat whenever possible. If a forward facing child restraint must be used in the front passenger seat, adjust
the seat to the most rearward position,
and ensure that the child stays in the child
restraint and away from the door.WARNINGl Do not allow a child to lean against or
close to the front door even if the child is seated in a child restraint system.
The child’s head should also not be leaned
against or be close to the area where the
side airbags and curtain airbags are loca- ted. It is dangerous if the side airbags andcurtain airbags inflate.
Failure to follow all of these instructions
could lead to serious or fatal injury to the
child.
l We recommend work around and on the
side airbags and curtain airbags system to
be done by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.

SRS warning lamp/display
E00407802790
Warning lampWarning display type 1Warning display type 2
The system checks itself every time the igni-
tion switch is turned to the “ON” position or the operation mode is put in ON. The SRSwarning lamp 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 lamp will come on and stay on. At the same time, thewarning display will appear on the informa-
tion screen in the multi-information display.
The SRS warning lamp/display is shared by
the SRS airbag and the seat belt pretensioner system.WARNINGl If any of the following conditions occur,
there may be a problem with the SRS air- bags and/or seat belt pretensioners, and they may not function properly in a colli-
sion or may suddenly activate without a
collision:
• Even when the ignition switch or the
operation mode is in ON, the SRS
warning lamp does not come on or it
remains on.
• The SRS warning lamp and/or the
warning display comes on while driv-ing.
The SRS airbags and seat belt pretension-
ers are designed to help reduce the risk of serious injury or death in certain colli-sions. If either of the above conditions oc-
curs, immediately have your vehicle
checked by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.SRS servicing
E00407901521
WARNINGl We recommend any maintenance per-
formed on or near the components of the
SRS to be performed by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
Improper work on the SRS components or wiring could result in inadvertent de-
ployment of the airbags, or could render
the SRS inoperative; either situation could result in serious injury.
l Do not modify your steering wheel, seat
belt retractor or any other SRS compo-
nents. For example, replacement of the
steering wheel, or modifications to the
front bumper or body structure can ad- versely affect SRS performance and lead
to possible injury.
l If your vehicle has sustained any damage,
we recommend you to have the SRS in- spected to ensure it is in proper workingorder.
Supplemental restraint system (SRS) - airbag
4-36OGAE15E5Seat and seat belts4

WARNINGlOn vehicles with the side airbags, do not
modify your front seats, centre pillar and centre console.
It can adversely affect SRS performance and lead to possible injury.
If you found any tear, scratch, crack or
damage to the seat fabric near the side
airbag, the portion of the front and rear pillars and roof side rail, you should havethe SRS inspected by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.NOTEl When you transfer ownership of the vehicle
to some other person, we urge you to alert
the new owner that it is equipped with the SRS and refer the new owner to the applica- ble section in this owner’s manual.
l If your vehicle has to be scrapped, do this in
line with local legislation and contact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Serv-
