2016 MITSUBISHI iMiEV child restraint

Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) - airbag 4-32 Seat and restraint systems

N00408200523
A side airbag and curtain airbag are designed to deploy when the vehicle suffers a moderate to severe side impact to the middle of the pas- senger compartment. The typical situation is shown in the illustra- tion. The seat belts in your
vehicle are your pri-
mary means of protecti
on in an accident. The
SRS side airbags and curtain airbags are designed to provide
additional protection.
Therefore, for your safety and the safety of all
occupants, be sure to
always wear your seat
belts properly. In certain types of side
collisions, the side air-
bag and curtain airbag may not deploy, even if the deformation of the body seems to belarge, because the vehicle’s body structure is designed to absorb the impact and to deform in order to help prot
ect the occupants. Some
typical situations where the side airbag and curtain airbag may not deploy are shown inthe illustrations. Because the side airbags and curtain airbags do not protect the occupant in all types of side collisions, be sure to
always wear your seat
belts properly.
 Front-facing child restraint systems should also be used ON
LY in the rear seat.
If a front-facing child restraint systemmust be used in the front passenger seat, move the seat as far back as possible, and make sure that the child stays in the childrestraint system, properly restrained and away from the door. Do not allow a child to lean against or sit close to the passenger door, even if the child is seated in a child restraint system.The child’s head sh
ould also not lean
against or be close to the section of the seatback where the side airbag and cur-tain airbag are located. It is dangerous if the side airbag and curtain airbag deploys. Failure to follow all of theseinstructions could lead to serious injury or death to the child. Work done on or in th
e vicinity of the side
airbag and curtain airbag system compo- nents should be done only by a certified i-MiEV dealer. Improper
work methods can
cause accidental side airbag and curtain airbag deployment, or
render a side air-
bag and curtain airb
ag inoperable. Either
of these situations can result in serious injury or death.WA R N I N G
