WARNINGlDo not put head, hands or anything else
out of the sunroof opening while driving
the vehicle.
l Never leave a child (or other person who
might not be capable of safe operation of
the sunroof switch) in the vehicle alone.
l Before operating the sunroof, make sure
that nothing is capable of being trapped
(head, hand, finger, etc.).NOTEl The sunroof stops just before reaching the
fully open position.
If the vehicle is driven with the sunroof in
this position, wind throb is lower than with the sunroof fully open.
l When leaving the vehicle unattended, make
sure you close the sunroof and remove the ignition key.
l Do not try to operate the sunroof if it is fro-
zen closed (after snow fall or during extreme cold).
l Do not sit or place heavy luggage on the
sunroof or roof opening edge.
l Release the switch as soon as the sunroof
reaches the fully open or fully closed posi-
tion.NOTEl If the sunroof does not operate when the
sunroof switch is operated, release the switch and check whether something is trap-
ped by the sunroof. If nothing is trapped, we recommend you to have the sunroof
checked.
l Depending on the model of ski carriers or
roof carriers, the sunroof may make contactwith the carrier when the sunroof is tilted up.Be careful when tilting up the sunroof if
such a ski carrier or a roof carrier is instal-
led.
l Be sure to close the sunroof completely
when washing the vehicle or when leaving

l Be careful, not to put any wax on the weath-
erstrip (black rubber) around the sunroof opening. If stained with wax, the weather-
strip cannot maintain a weatherproof seal with the sunroof.
l After washing the vehicle or after it has
rained, wipe off any water that is on the sun-
roof before operating it.
l Operating the sunroof repeatedly with the
engine stationary will run down the battery. Operate the sunroof while the engine is run-
ning.

WARNINGlNever wear the lap portion of the belt
across your abdomen. During accidents it
can press sharply against the abdomen and increase the risk of injury.
l The seat belts must not be twisted when
worn.
3. Pull the belt slightly to adjust slackness
as desired.
To unfasten
Hold the latch plate and push the button on
the buckle.

lamp
E00409802026
A tone and warning lamp are used to remind the driver and front passenger (if so equip-ped) to fasten the seat belt.
NOTEl For the front passenger seat, the warning
function works only while a person is sitting on the seat.
When the ignition key is turned to the “ON”
position, the warning lamp will come on and
a tone will sound for about 6 seconds. If the
front seat belt remains unfastened approxi-
mately 1 minute later, the warning lamp will flash and the tone sounds intermittently (each 12 times) when the vehicle is driven. If the
passenger subsequently unfastens the seat
belt while driving, the warning lamp and tone will issue further warnings. And if the seat
belt remains unfastened, the warning lamp and tone will issue further warnings each
time the vehicle starts moving from a stop. When the seat belt is fastened, the warnings
will stop.

Pregnant women restraintE00405600064WARNINGlSeat belts work for everyone, including
pregnant women. Pregnant women should
use the available seat belts. This will re- duce the likelihood of injury to both thewoman and the unborn child. The lap belt
should be worn across the thighs and as snug against the hips as possible, but not
across the waist. Consult your doctor if you have any additional questions or con-
cerns.Seat belt pretensioner
system and force limiter
system* E00405700283
The driver’s and front passenger’s seat equip-ped with an airbag has a pretensioner seat belt.
Pretensioner system
E00405801089
The pretensioner system will retract their re-
spective seat belts instantaneously, thus max-imizing the seat belt’s effectiveness, if there
is a frontal impact severe enough to injure the
driver and/or front passenger and the ignition
switch is in the “ON” or “START” position.
The seat belt pretensioner includes the fol-
lowing components:
1- Front impact sensors
2- Seat belt pretensioners
3- Airbag control unit
WARNINGl To obtain the best results from your pre-
tensioner seat belt, make sure you have
adjusted your seat correctly and wear your seat belt properly.CAUTIONl Installation of audio equipment or repairs in
the vicinity of the pretensioner seat belts or
floor console must be performed in line with MITSUBISHI MOTORS guidelines. It is
important to do so because the work could affect the pretensioner systems.CAUTIONl If you need to scrap the vehicle, please con-
sult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point. It is important to do so be- cause unexpected activation of the preten-
sioner seat belts could cause injuries.NOTEl The pretensioner seat belts will be activated
if the vehicle suffers a severe frontal impact, even if the seat belts are not worn.
l The pretensioner seat belts are designed to
work only once. After the pretensioner seat
belts have been activated, we recommend you have them replaced by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.SRS warning lamp
E00405900126
This warning lamp is shared by the SRS air-
bags and the pretensioner seat belts.
Refer to “SRS warning lamp” on page 4-40.
Force limiter system
E00406000078
In the event of a collision, each force limiter system will effectively absorb the load ap- plied to the seat belt so as to minimize the
impact to the passenger.

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.
