WA R N I N G Persons who are unable
to feel tempera-
ture change or skin
pain due to age, ill-
ness, injury, medication, alcohol use, fatigue or other phys
ical conditions or
who have sensitive skin may suffer burnswhen using the heated seat even at low temperatures. To reduce the risk of burns, people with such conditions must use carewhen using the heated seat.
CAUTION Switch off the heated seats when not in use. Operate the heaters at the “HI” position forquick heating. After the seat has becomewarm, set the heater switch to the “LO” posi- tion to keep it warm. Sl
ight variations in the
seat temperature may be felt while using theheated seats. This is caused by the operation of the heater’s internal thermostat and does not indicate a malfunction. Do not place heavy obj
ects on the seat or
stick pins, needles, or
other pointed objects
into the seat. Do not place a blanket,
cushion, or other
insulating material on the seat while using the heater; doing so can
cause the heater ele-
ment to overheat. When cleaning the seat, do not use benzine, kerosene, gasoline, alc
ohol, or other organic
solvents; doing so can cause damage not only to the surface of the seat, but also to the heater. If water or any other liquid is spilled on the seat, allow it to dry thoroughly beforeattempting to use the heater. Turn the heater off immediately if it a
ppears to be malfunc-
tioning during use.

A tone and warning light are used to remind the driver to fasten the seat belt. If the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the operation mode is put in ONwithout the driver’s seat belt being fastened, a
warning light will come on and a tone will sound for approximately 6 seconds to remindyou to fasten your seat belt. If the vehicle is driven with the seat belt still unfastened, the warning light will blink andthe tone will sound inte
rmittently until the
seat belt is fastened. At the same time, “FAS- TEN SEAT BELT” is displayed on the infor-mation screen in the multi information display (Type 1 only).
N00418301247
The front passenger seat
belt warning light is
located in the instrument panel. When the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position or the ope
ration mode is put in
ON, this indicator
normally comes on and
goes off a few seconds later.The light comes on when a person sits on the front passenger seat but does not fasten the seat belt. It goes off wh
en the seat belt is sub-
sequently fastened.

The driver and front pa
ssenger seat
belts are
equipped with a seat
belt pre-tensioner sys-
tem. In a moderate-to-severe frontal or sidecollision or when a rollover or overturning of the vehicle is detected
, the pre-tensioner sys-
tem operates simultane
ously with the deploy-
ment of the front airb
ags, side airbags or
curtain airbags. The seat belt pre-tensioners are located in the driver’s and front passe
nger’s seat belt retrac-
tors (A) and in the front
passenger seat’s final
anchor (B). When activated, the pre-tension- ers quickly draw back
seat belt webbing and
increase seat belt performance. The seat belt pre-tensioner system includes the following components:
The airbag control unit
monitors the readiness
of the electronic parts of the system whenever the ignition switch or the operation mode is under the following conditions. These includeall of the item
s listed above a
nd all related
wiring. [Except for vehicles equipped with theF. 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-tensioners will operate under the same conditions as the airbag con-trol unit. When the seat belt pr
e-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 belt pre-tensioners may not activate in certain collisions, even though the vehicle may appear
to be severely dam-
aged. Such non-activation does not mean that something is wrong with the seat belt pre-ten- sioner system, but rather that the collisionforces were not severe
enough to activate the
system.

WA R N I N G The seat belt pre-tensioner system is designed to work only
once. After the seat
belt pre-tensioners have been activated, they will not work again. They must promptly be replaced and the entire seatbelt pre-tensioner system inspected by an authorized Mitsubis
hi Motors dealer.

N00407801532
The SRS includes the following components:
The airbag control unit monitors the readiness of the electronic parts of the system whenever the ignition switch or the operation mode is under the following conditions. These include all of the items listed
above and 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 airbags will opera
te under the same con-
ditions as the airbag control unit.
When the impact sensors detect a sufficient front or side impact to deploy the airbag(s),the appropriate airbag
(s) will be deployed.
When the airbag control unit detects rollover of the vehicle, curtain airbags will be deployed. When airbags deploy, so
me smoke is released
accompanied by a loud noise. The smoke is not harmful, but do not intentionally inhale the smoke as it may ca
use temporary irrita-
tion to people with respiratory problems. An inflated airbag will deflate quickly, so you may not even notice that the airbag wasinflated. Airbag inflation does not prevent the driver from seeing or being able to steer the vehicle,and does not prevent people from leaving the vehicle.
N00418601266
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR).
