Seat belts
4-11OGAE17E2Seat and seat belts4
CAUTIONlInstallation 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 frontal impact or a severe side impact (vehicles equipped
with SRS side airbags and SRS curtain air- bags), 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

In the event of a collision, each force limiter
system will effectively absorb the load ap- plied to the seat belt to minimize the impact
to the passenger.Child restraint
E00406403464
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.WARNINGl 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.

The system checks itself every time the igni-
tion switch is turned to the “ON” position or the operation mode is put in ON. The SRSwarning lamp will come on for several sec-
onds and then go out. This is normal and
means the system is working properly.
If there is a problem involving one or more of
the SRS components, the warning lamp will come on and stay on. At the same time, thewarning display will appear on the informa-
tion screen in the multi-information display.
The SRS warning lamp/display is shared by
the SRS airbag and the seat belt pretensioner system.WARNINGl If any of the following conditions occur,
there may be a problem with the SRS air- bags and/or seat belt pretensioners, and they may not function properly in a colli-
sion or may suddenly activate without a
collision:
• Even when the ignition switch or the
operation mode is in ON, the SRS
warning lamp does not come on or it
remains on.
• The SRS warning lamp and/or the
warning display comes on while driv-ing.
The SRS airbags and seat belt pretension-
ers are designed to help reduce the risk of serious injury or death in certain colli-sions. If either of the above conditions oc-
curs, immediately have your vehicle
checked by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.SRS servicing
E00407901521
WARNINGl We recommend any maintenance per-
formed on or near the components of the
SRS to be performed by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
Improper work on the SRS components or wiring could result in inadvertent de-
ployment of the airbags, or could render
the SRS inoperative; either situation could result in serious injury.
l Do not modify your steering wheel, seat
belt retractor or any other SRS compo-
nents. For example, replacement of the
steering wheel, or modifications to the
front bumper or body structure can ad- versely affect SRS performance and lead
to possible injury.
l If your vehicle has sustained any damage,
we recommend you to have the SRS in- spected to ensure it is in proper workingorder.
