To install
WARNINGl If there is any foreign material in or
around the connectors, remove it before
installing the child restraint system. Also, make sure the seat belt is away from, not
looped through or otherwise interfering
with, the child restraint system. If foreign matter is not removed and/or the seat belt interferes with the child restraint system,
the child restraint system will not be se-
cured properly and could move forward in the event of sudden braking or a colli-sion, seriously injuring the child and pos-
sibly other vehicle occupants.

instructions.
The locking clip must be removed when the child restraint is removed.Seat belt inspection
E00406300475
lCheck the belts for cuts, worn or frayed
webbing and for cracked or deformed metallic parts. Replace the belt assembly
if defective.
l A dirty belt should be cleaned with neu-
tral detergent in warm water. After rins-
ing in water, let it dry in the shade. Do not attempt to bleach or re-dye the belts
because this affects their characteristics.WARNINGl We recommend you have all seat belt as-
semblies including retractors and attach-
ing hardware inspected after any colli-
sion. We recommend that seat belt assem- blies in use during a collision be replaced unless the collision was minor and the
belts show no damage and continue to op-
erate 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 activated, it
cannot be re-used.
It must be replaced together with the re- tractor.

WARNINGlInfants and small children should never
be unrestrained, stand up against the in-strument panel or be held in your arms or on your lap. They could be seriously in-jured or killed in a collision, including when the airbag inflates. They should be
properly seated in an appropriate child restraint system. See the “Child restraint”
section of this owner’s manual.WARNINGl 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 se-
rious injuries to the child.NOTEl If you have a rearward facing child restraint
system that cannot be fitted to any seat other
than the front passenger seat, be sure to turn OFF the front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF
switch before using it. (Refer to “To turn an
airbag off” on page 4-31.)WARNINGl A FORWARD FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT should not be used in the frontpassenger seat whenever possible; if used
in the front passenger seat, adjust the seat to the most rearward position. Failure to
do so could kill or cause serious injuries to
the child.

WARNINGlOlder children should be seated, properly
wearing the seat belt, with an appropriatebooster seat if needed.Caution for installing the child
restraint on vehicles with a front passenger airbag
E00408800588
The label shown here is attached on vehicles with a front passenger airbag.
WARNINGl Extreme Hazard!
Do not use a rearward facing child re- straint on a seat protected by an airbag in
front of it!How the Supplemental Re-
straint System works
E00407301352
The SRS includes the following components:
1- Airbag module (Driver)
2- Front passenger’s airbag OFF indication
lamp
3- Airbag module (Passenger)
4- Front impact sensors
5- Airbag control unit
6- Front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF
switch

7- Side airbag modules
8- Side impact sensors
9- Curtain airbag modules
The airbags will operate only when the igni- tion switch is in the “ON” or “START” posi-
tion.
When the airbag control unit detect an impact of sufficient frontal or side force, it sends an
ignition signal to the airbag modules to ignite
materials in the inflator and generate gas and
inflate the airbags.
The airbags deployment produces a sudden, loud noise, and releases some smoke andpowder, but these conditions are not injuri-
ous, and do not indicate a fire in the vehicle. People with respiratory problems may feel
some temporary irritation from chemicals
used to produce the deployment; open the
windows after airbag deployment, if safe to do so.
Supplemental restraint system (SRS) - airbag*
4-30OKTE15E3Seat and seat belts4

The airbags deflate very rapidly after deploy-
ment, so there is little danger of obscured vi- sion.
The time required from the sensors detecting an impact to deflation of the airbags after de-
ployment is shorter than a blink of an eye.CAUTIONl Airbags inflate at an extremely rapid speed.
In certain situations, contact with inflatingairbags can result in abrasions, light cuts,
bruises, and the like.Front passenger’s airbag ON-
OFF switch

The side airbags and curtainairbags ARE NOT DESIGNED
TO DEPLOY when…
The side airbags and curtain airbags are not designed to deploy in conditions where they
cannot usually provide protection to the oc- cupant. Typical conditions are shown in the
illustration.
Head-on collisionsRear end collisions
Because the side airbags and curtain airbags do not protect the occupant in all types of collisions, be sure to always properly wearyour seat belts.
WARNINGl The side airbags and curtain airbags are
designed to supplement the driver and passenger seat belts in certain side im-
pacts. Seat belts should always be worn properly, and the driver and passenger
should sit well back and upright without
leaning against the window or door.
l The side airbags and curtain airbags in-
flate with great force. The driver and front passenger should not put their arms out the window, and should not lean
against the door, in order to reduce the risk of serious or possible fatal injuryfrom the deploying side airbag and cur-
tain airbag.WARNINGl Do not allow a child to kneel on the pas-
senger seat facing the passenger’s side
door, since the side airbags and curtain airbags inflate with great force.
Otherwise, the child may be killed or seri- ously injured.WARNINGl Do 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 airbag. 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.
