When the operation mode of the power
switch is in ON, if there is a frontal impact or a side impact severe enough to injure the
driver and/or front passenger, the pretension- er system will retract their respective seat
belts instantaneously, thus maximizing the seat belt’s effectiveness.
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.
l If you need to scrap the vehicle, please con-
sult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point.
It is important to do so because unexpected activation of the pretensioner seat belts
could cause injuries.NOTEl The pretensioner seat belts will be activated
if the vehicle suffers a severe 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 it replaced by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.SRS warning

Child restraint
E00406403507
When transporting children in your vehicle,some type of child restraint system should al-
ways be used according to the size of the child. This is required by law in most coun-
tries.
The regulations concerning driving with chil-
dren in the front seat may differ from country
to country. You are advised to comply with the relevant regulations.WARNINGl When possible, put children in the rear
seat. Accident statistics indicate that chil- dren of all sizes and ages are safer when
properly restrained in the rear seat rather than in the front seat.
l Holding a child in your arms is no substi-
tute for a restraint system. Failure to use
a proper restraint system can result in se- vere or fatal injury to the child.
l Each child restraint device or fixing is to
be used only by one child.
l When attaching a child restraint system
to the rear seat, prevent the front seat- backs from touching the child restraintsystem.
Otherwise, the child could be seriously in-
jured in the event of hard braking or a
collision.
