WA R N I N GInfants and small children should neverride unrestrained,
or lean against the
instrument panel. They should never rideheld in your arms or on your lap. Theycan be seriously inju
red or killed in an
accident, especially when the airbagsinflate. Seat all infants and children in therear seat, properly re
strained in an appro-
priate child restraint system. Refer to“Child restraint syst
ems” on page 4-27.
WA R N I N GNEVER put REAR-FACING CHILDRESTRAINT SYSTEMS or INFANTRESTRAINT SYSTEMS in the front pas-senger seat. This places the infant tooclose to the passenger’s airbag. Duringdeployment of that airbag, the infant canbe seriously inju
red or killed.
Rear-facing child restraint systems orinfant restraint systems must only be usedin the rear seat.Airbag
WA R N I N GFRONT-FACING CHILD RESTRAINTSYSTEMS should be used in the rear seatwhenever possible. If they must be used inthe front passenger seat, move the seat tothe most rearward position and make surethe child stays in the child restraint sys-tem, properly restrained. Failure to followthese instructions could result in seriousinjury or death to the child.WA R N I N GOlder children should be seated in therear seat with their seat belt properlyworn, and with an
appropriate booster
seat if needed.Refer to “Children
who have outgrown
child restraint syst
ems” on page 4-34.

The SRS includes the following components:
The airbag control unit monitors the readinessof the electronic parts of the system wheneverthe ignition switch or the operation mode isunder the following conditions. These includeall 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 sufficientfront or side impact to deploy the airbag(s),the appropriate airbag
(s) will be deployed.
When the airbag control unit detects rolloverof the vehicle, curtain airbags will bedeployed.When airbags deploy, so
me smoke is released
accompanied by a loud noise. The smoke isnot harmful, but do not intentionally inhalethe smoke as it may ca
use temporary irrita-
tion to people with respiratory problems.An inflated airbag will deflate quickly, so youmay not even notice that the airbag wasinflated.Airbag inflation does not prevent the driverfrom seeing or being able to steer the vehicle,and does not prevent people from leaving thevehicle.

The front airbags and driver’s knee airbag aredesigned to deploy when
the vehicle suffers a
moderate to severe fro
ntal impact. A typical
condition is shown in th
e illustration to the
left.The front airbags and driver’s knee airbag aredesigned to deploy only in certain moderateto severe frontal collisions within the shadedarea between the arrows in the illustration tothe right.
The front airbags and driver’s knee airbagwill deploy if the impact to the vehicle’s mainstructure is above a sp
ecific threshold level.
The threshold level is
approximately 15 mph
(25 km/h) for a frontal collision straight into asolid flat wall that does not bend or deform. Ifthe impact to the vehicle’s main structure isbelow this threshold le
vel, the front airbags
and driver’s knee airbag may not deploy. Thisthreshold level may also
be higher if the vehi-
cle hits something that absorbs the impact,either by bending or moving (for example,
another stationary vehi
cle, a pole or a guard
rail).The initial stage of airbag inflation is themost forceful, and can
cause serious injury or
death if you are too clos
e to the deploying air-
bag. Accordingly, it
is important that you
always wear the available seat belt.

The front airbags and driver’s knee airbagmay deploy if the underside of the vehiclesuffers a moderate to
severe impact (under-
carriage impact). Some typical situations areshown in the illustration.Since the front airbags and driver’s knee air-bag may deploy in ce
rtain types of unex-
pected impacts, as show
n in the illustrations,
and these unexpected impacts can move youout of position, it is
important to always wear
your seat belts properly. When worn properly,seat belts can help maintain your distancefrom the airbags when they begin to inflate.The initial stage of airbag inflation is themost forceful and can cause serious injury ordeath if you are close to the deploying airbag.The front airbags and driver’s knee airbag MAY DEPLOY when …

WA R N I N GDo not attach anything to the steeringwheel’s padded cover, such as trim mate-rial, badges, etc. These could strike andinjure an occupant if
the airbag inflates.
Do not set anything on, or attach anythingto, the instrument
panel above the glove
compartment. Such items could strike andinjure an occupant if
the airbag inflates.
WA R N I N GDo not attach accessories to, or put themin front of, the wind
shield. They could
restrict the airbag infl
ation, or strike and
injure an occupant, when the airbaginflates.

The side airbags (A) are contained in thedriver and front passenger seatbacks.The side airbag is de
signed to inflate only on
the side of the vehicle that is impacted, evenwith no passenger in the front seat.A label is attached to the seatbacks in vehi-cles equipped with side airbags.
Do not attach addition
al keys or accesso-
ries (hard, pointed or
heavy objects) to the
ignition key. Such objects could preventthe driver’s knee ai
rbag from inflation
normally or could be propelled to causeserious injury if
the airbag inflates.
Do not attach accessories to the lower por-tion of the driver’s side instrument panel.Such objects could prevent the driver’sknee airbag from inflating normally orcould be propelled to cause serious injuryif the airbag inflates.WA R N I N GDo not attempt to remove, install, disas-semble or repair the SRS airbags.WA R N I N G
Do not place objects,
such as packages or
pets, between the airbags and the driveror the front passenger. Such objects canadversely affect ai
rbag performance, or
cause serious injury or death when theairbag deploys.Immediately after airbag inflation, someparts of the airbag syst
em will be hot. Do
not touch them. You could otherwise beburned.The airbag system is designed to workonly once. After the
airbags deploy, they
will not work again. They must promptlybe replaced and the
entire airbag system
must be inspected by
an authorized Mit-

The curtain airbags are contained in the frontpillar, the rear pillar and the side sections ofthe roof.The curtain airbag is designed to inflate onlyon the side of the ve
hicle that is impacted,
even with no passenger in the seat.Also, when the airbag control unit detectsrollover of the vehicle, the curtain airbagswill deploy.Curtain airbag system
WA R N I N GThe side airbags and
curtain airbags can
cause serious injury
or death to anyone
too close to the airb
ag when it deploys. To
reduce the risk of in
jury from a deploying
side airbag or curtai
n airbag, dr
iver and
front passenger must be properlyrestrained and seated well back, upright,and in the middle of
the seat. Do not lean
against the door.WA R N I N GIn order to reduce the risk of injury froma deploying side airb
ag, do not allow any
second row seat passengers to hold ontothe back of either front seat. Special careshould be taken with children.
Do not place any objects around the areawhere the side airbags deploy. Suchobjects can interfere with proper side air-bag deployment, and
cause injury during
deployment of the side airbag.Do not place stickers, labels or additionaltrim on the back of either front seat. Theycan interfere with proper side airbagdeployment.Do not attach a microphone (A) or anyother object around the part where thecurtain airbag (B) depl
oys, such as on the
windshield, side door glass or front andrear pillars and roof
side rail. When the
curtain airbag inflates
, the microphone or
other object may be
hurled with great
force or the curtain airbag may not inflatecorrectly, resulting in death or seriousinjury.WA R N I N G

The side airbag and curtain airbag aredesigned to deploy when the vehicle suffers amoderate to seve
re side impact to the middle
of the passenger compartment.Also when the vehicle
detects rollover of the
vehicle, the curtain airbags will deploy.Typical situations are shown in the illustra-tion.
WA R N I N GDo not put a hanger or any heavy orpointed object on the coat hook. If the cur-tain airbag was activated, any such itemcould be propelled aw
ay with great force
and could prevent th
e curtain airbag from
inflating correctly. Hang clothes directlyon the coat hook (without using a hanger).Make sure there are no heavy or sharpobjects in the pocket
s of clothes that you
hang on the coat hook.Do not install seat cove
rs or re-cover seats
that have side airbag
s. Covers can inter-
fere with proper si
de airbag deployment
and adversely affect
side airbag perfor-
mance.Never install a rear-facing child restraintsystem in the front passenger seat. Rear-facing child restraint systems MUSTONLY be used in the rear seat.Front-facing child restraint systemsshould 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, andmake sure that the child stays in the childrestraint system, properly restrained andaway from the door.
Do not allow a child to lean against or sitclose to the passenger door, even if thechild is seated in a child restraint system.The child’s head should also not leanagainst or be close to the section of theseatback where the side airbag and cur-tain airbag are located. It is dangerous ifthe side airbag or cu
rtain airbag deploys.
Failure to follow all of these instructionscould lead to serious in
jury or death to the
child.Work done on or in th
e vicinity of the side
airbag or curtain
airbag components
should be done only
by an authorized Mit-
subishi Motors dealer. There is a risk of aserious injury or death. Improper workmethods can cause acci
dental side airbag
or curtain airbag depl
oyment, or render a
side airbag or curtai
n airbag inoperable.
Either of these situations could result inserious injury or death.WA R N I N G
