There is a Supplemen
tal Restraint System
(SRS) warning light on the instrument panel.The system checks itself every time the igni-tion switch is turned to the “ON” position orthe operation mode is put in ON. The SRSwarning light will come on for several sec-
onds and then go out. This is normal andmeans the system is working properly.If there is a problem
involving one or more of
the SRS components, the warning light willcome on and stay on. At
the same time, the

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

Your vehicle has been designed for both nor-mal and occasional off-road use. However,avoid driving the vehicle through areas wherethe tires may get stuck in deep sand or mud asyour vehicle is designe
d primarily for use on
pavement, unlike a conventional off-roadvehicle.Keep in mind that 2-wheel drive vehicles areless capable than 4-wh
eel drive vehicles for
driving on muddy, slippery, wet or snow-cov-ered roads.Utility vehicles have
higher ground clearance
and a narrower track, which enables them toperform in a wide variety of off-road situa-tions. Because of the higher ground clear-ance, these vehicles have a higher center ofgravity, which makes them handle differentlythan ordinary vehicles when driving on pave-ment. They are not designed to maneuver orcorner at the same speed on pavement as con-ventional 2-wheel driv
e passenger cars any
more than low-slung sports cars are designed
to perform satisfactorily in off-road condi-tions.Always drive safely
and steer the vehicle
carefully. Avoid operating the vehicle in amanner that might require sharp turns orabrupt maneuvers. As wi
th other vehicles of
this type, failure to operate this vehicle cor-rectly can result in lo
ss of control or vehicle
rollover.In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is sig-nificantly more likely to die than a personwearing a seat belt. Be
fore starting the vehi-
cle, always make cert
ain that you and all your
passengers are properly wearing their seatbelts (with children in the rear seat, in appro-priate restraints).
N00628801191
Fuel economy is depe
ndent on many factors.
Your personal driving habits can have a sig-nificant effect on your fuel consumption.Several recommendations
for achieving the
greatest fuel economy are listed below.Whenever accelerating from a stop,always accelerate
slowly and smoothly.
When parked for even a short period, donot idle the engine. Shut it off.Plan your trips to avoid unnecessarystops.
Keep your tires inflated to the recom-mended pressures.When driving a 4-wheel drive vehicle onhighways or dry improved roads, set thedrive mode to “4WD ECO” or “4WDAUTO” (Electronically controlled 4WD),or “AWC ECO” or “NORMAL” (S-AW C ) .For freeway driving, maintain a speed ofapproximately 50 mph (80 km/h) whentraffic, roadway and weather conditionssafely permit.Keep your air filter clean and your vehiclelubricated according
to the recommenda-
tions in this manual.Always keep your ve
hicle well main-
tained. A poorly maintained enginewastes fuel and costs money.Never overload your vehicle.
N00628900049
Drunk driving is one of the most frequentcauses of accidents.Your driving ability ca
n be seriously impaired
even with blood alcohol levels far below thelegal minimum. If you
have been drinking,
don’t drive. Ride with a designated non-drinking driver, call a cab or a friend, or usepublic transportation. Drinking coffee or tak-ing a cold shower will not make you sober.
Driving precaution
WA R N I N GUtility vehicles have
a significantly higher
rollover rate than othe
r types of vehicles.
Avoid abrupt maneuvers and excessivespeed. Always buckle up.

For a safer and more enjoyable trip, alwayscheck for the following:Before starting the vehicle, make certainthat you and all passengers are seated andwearing their seat
belts properly (with
children in the rear seat, in appropriaterestraints), and that all the doors and theliftgate are locked.
Move the driver’s seat as far backward aspossible, while keeping good visibility,and good control of the steering wheel,brakes, accelerator, and controls. Checkthe instrument panel indicators and multi-information display
for any possible prob-
lem.Similarly, the front
passenger seat should
also be moved as fa
r back as possible.
Make sure that infants and small childrenare properly restrained in accordance withall laws and
regulations.
Check these by selecting the defroster mode,and set the blower swit
ch on high. You should
be able to feel the air blowing against thewindshield. Refer to “Defrosti
ng or defogging (wind-
shield, door windows)” on page 7-12Check all the tires for heavy tread wear oruneven wear patterns. Look for stones, nails,glass, or other objects
stuck in the tread. Look
for any tread cuts or
sidewall cracks. Check
the wheel nuts for tightness, and the tires(including spare tire) for proper pressure.
Replace your tires before they are heavilyworn out.As your vehicle is equi
pped with a tire pres-
sure monitoring system, there is a risk ofdamage to the tire inflation pressure sensorswhen the tire is replaced on the rim. Tirereplacement should, onl
y, be performed by an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer.Have someone watch wh
ile you turn all the
exterior lights on and off. Also check the turnsignal indicators and hi
gh-beam indicators on
the instrument panel.Check the ground under the vehicle afterparking overnight, for
fuel, water, oil, or
other leaks. Make sure
all the fluid levels are
correct. Also, if you
can smell fuel, you need
to find out why imme
diately and have it
fixed.
