Seat adjustmentE00400302073
Adjust the driver’s seat so that you are com- fortable and that you can reach the pedals,
steering wheel, switches etc. while retaining a clear field of vision.WARNINGl Do not attempt to adjust the seat while
driving. This can cause loss of vehicle con- trol and result in an accident. After ad-
justments are made, ensure the seating is locked in position by attempting to move
the seat forward and rearward without
using the adjusting mechanism.
l Do not let children or adults ride in areas
of the vehicle that are not equipped with seats or seat belts. Also, make sure that all
occupants are sitting in their seats and wearing their seat belts, and that children
are sitting in child restraints.
l To minimize the risk of personal injury in
the event of a collision or sudden braking,the seatbacks should always be in the al-
most upright position while the vehicle is in motion. The protection provided by theseat belts may be reduced significantly
when the seatback is reclined. There is greater risk that the passenger will slide
under the seat belt, resulting in serious in- jury, when the seatback is reclined.WARNINGl Do not place objects under the seats. This
could prevent the seat from locking se-curely, and it could lead to an accident. It
may also cause damage to the seat or oth-
er parts.CAUTIONl Make sure the seat is adjusted by an adult or
with adult supervision for correct and safe operation.
l Do not place a cushion or the like between
your back and the seatback while driving.The effectiveness of the head restraints will
be reduced in the event of an accident.
l When sliding the seat rearward, be careful
not to catch your hand or foot.Front seat

nition switch or the operation mode in ON.
The indication lamp (A) will illuminate while the heater is on.
1 (HI)- Heater high (for quick heating).2- Heater off.3 (LO)- Heater low (to keep the seat
warm).CAUTIONl Switch off seat heaters when not in use.CAUTIONlOperate in the high position for quick heat-
ing. Once the seat is warm, set the heater to low to keep it warm. Slight variations in seat
temperature may be felt while using the heated seats. This is caused by the operation
of the heater’s internal thermostat and does not indicate a malfunction.
l If the following types of persons use the
heated seats, they might become too hot or receive minor burns (red skin, heat blisters,
etc.):
• Children, elderly or ill people

sleep inducing medication (cold medicine, etc.)
l Do not place heavy objects on the seat or
stick pins, needles, or other pointed objects into it.
l Do not use a blanket, cushion, or other mate-
rial with high heat insulation properties on the seat while using the heater; this might
cause the heater element to overheat
l Do not use benzine, kerosene, petrol, alcohol
or other organic solvents when cleaning the seats. Doing so could damage not only the seat cover, but also the heater element.
l If water or any other liquid is spilled on the
seat, allow it to dry thoroughly before at-tempting to use the heater.
l Turn the heater off immediately if it appears
to be malfunctioning during use.Rear seat

the head restraints in the wrong direction.Making a luggage
compartment E00403400231WARNINGlWhen making a luggage compartment,
never arrange the seats while the vehicle
is being driven or is on an incline. The seats could move unexpectedly or more
than required and cause a serious acci- dent.

fore the vehicle is in motion.WARNINGl Do not allow anyone to ride in the luggage
compartment while the vehicle is in mo-
tion. People who are not properly seated and restrained can be seriously injured orkilled in an accident.

E00404800636
To protect you and your passengers in theevent of an accident, it is most important thatthe seat belts be worn correctly while driving.
The front seat belts have a pretensioner sys- tem. These belts are used the same way as a
conventional seat belt.
Refer to “Seat belt pretensioner system and force limiter system” on page 4-14.
WARNINGl Always place the shoulder belt over your
shoulder and across your chest. Never put it behind you or under your arm.
l One seat belt should be used by only one
person. Doing otherwise can be danger- ous.WARNINGl The seat belt will provide its wearer with
maximum protection if the recliner seat-
back is placed in fully upright position.
When the seatback is reclined, there is greater risk that the passenger will slide
under the belt, especially in a forward im-
pact accident, and may be injured by the
belt or by striking the instrument panel or seatbacks.
l Seat belts should always be worn by every
adult who drives or rides in this vehicle,
and by all children who are tall enough to wear seat belts properly.
Other children should always use proper child restraint systems.
l Remove any twists when using the belt.
l No modifications or additions should be
made by the user which will either pre-
vent the seat belt adjusting devices from operating to remove slack, or prevent the
seat belt assembly from being adjusted to remove slack.
l Never hold a child in your arms or on
your lap when riding in this vehicle, even
if you are wearing your seat belt. To do so risks severe or fatal injury to the child in
a collision or sudden stop.
l Always adjust the belt to a snug fit.
l Always wear the lap portion of the belt
over your hips.

pregnant women. Pregnant women shoulduse the available seat belts. This will re-
duce the likelihood of injury to both the woman 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

E00405801135
When the ignition switch or the operationmode is under the following conditions, if there is a frontal impact or a side impact (ve-
hicles equipped with SRS side airbags and SRS curtain airbags) severe enough to injure
the driver and/or front passenger, the preten-
sioner system will retract their respective seat belts instantaneously, thus maximizing the
seat belt’s effectiveness.
[Except for vehicles equipped with keyless operation system]
The ignition switch is in the “ON” or
“START” position.
[Vehicles equipped with keyless operation system]
The operation mode is in ON.
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 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.
