Installing a child restraint sys-tem to the lower anchorage (ISOFIX child restraint mount-ings) and tether anchorage
E00406901944
Lower anchorage location
Your vehicle’s front passenger seat and rear seat is fitted with lower anchorages for at-
taching a child restraint system with ISOFIX mountings.
Tether anchorage location
Your vehicle has 3 child restraint anchoragepoints on the backside of the front passenger seat and rear seats. These are for securing a
child restraint system tether strap to each of the 3 seating positions in your vehicle.
WARNINGl Child restraint anchorages are designed
to withstand only those loads imposed by
correctly fitted child restraints. Under no circumstances are they to be used for adult seat belts, harnesses, or for attach-
ing other items or equipment to the vehi- cle.
Child restraint system with
ISOFIX mountings
The child restraint system is designed only
for seats that incorporate lower anchorages.
Retain the child restraint system using the lower anchorages.
It is not necessary to retain the child restraint
system using the vehicle’s seat belts.

E00408701816
Installation:
1. Put a child restraint system on the seat in
which you wish to install it, and remove
the head restraint from the seat.
Refer to “Head restraints” on page 5-05.
2. When installing a child restraint system
in the front passenger seat, adjust seat slide to its most rearward position and
adjust the front seatback angle to 2 steps
rearward from the first locking position.
3. Route the belt through the child restraint
according to the child restraint system manufacturer’s instructions, then insert
the latch plate into the buckle.
4. Remove all slack of a lap belt by pulling
the webbing through the belt’s adjust-
ment feature.
3-point type seat belt requires no length adjustment, remove all slack by usingthe locking clip.
5. If your child restraint system has a sup-
port leg, make sure that there is a sup-
port leg at the stable position on the
floor.
6. Before putting the child in the restraint,
push and pull the restraint in all direc- tions to be sure it is secure. Do this be-
fore each use.WARNINGl For some types of child restraint, the lock-
ing clip (A) should be used to help avoid
personal injury during a collision or sud- den manoeuvre.
It must be fitted and used in accordance with the child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions.
The locking clip must be removed when the child restraint is removed.Seat belt inspection
E00406301850
Check the belts for cuts, worn or frayed web-bing and for cracked or deformed metallic
parts. Replace the belt assembly if it is defec-
tive.
WARNINGl We recommend you to have all seat belt
assemblies including retractors and at-
taching hardware inspected after any col- lision. We recommend that seat belt as-
semblies in use during a collision be re- placed unless the collision was minor and
the belts show no damage and continue to operate properly.
Seat belt inspection
5-25OGGE18E1Seats and seat belts5

WARNINGlDo not attempt to repair or replace any
part of the seat belt assemblies; we recom-
mend you to have this work done by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point. Incorrect repair or replace-
ment could reduce the effectiveness of the belts and could result in serious injury in
the event of a collision.
l Once the pretensioner has been activated,
it cannot be re-used.
It must be replaced together with the re-
tractor.
l Do not insert any foreign objects (pieces
of plastic, paper clips, buttons, etc.) in the
buckle or retractor mechanism. In addi- tion, do not modify, remove or install the seat belt. Otherwise, the seat belt may not
be able to provide adequate protection in a collision or other situation.WARNINGl A dirty belt should be cleaned with neu-
tral detergent in warm water. After rins-
ing in water, let it dry in the shade. Do not
attempt to bleach or re-dye the belts be-
cause this will affect their characteristics.Supplemental restraint
system (SRS)-airbag E00407203645
The information for SRS airbags includes im-
portant information concerning the driver’s and front passenger’s airbags, the driver’s knee airbag, the side airbags and the curtain
airbags.
The SRS driver and front passenger airbags are designed to supplement the primary pro-
tection of the driver and front passenger side
seat belt systems by providing those occu- pants with protection against head and chestinjuries in certain moderate-to-severe frontal
collisions.
The SRS driver’s knee airbag is designed to supplement the primary protection of the
driver’s seat belt system. It can reduce the forward movement of the driver’s lower legs and provide increased overall body protectionin certain moderate-to-severe frontal colli- sions.
The SRS side airbags are designed to supple-
ment properly worn seat belts and provide the
driver and front passenger with protection against chest injuries in certain moderate-to-
severe side impact collisions.
The SRS curtain airbags are designed to sup-
plement properly worn seat belts and provide the driver and passenger with protection
against head injuries in certain moderate-to-
severe side impact collisions.
The SRS is NOT a substitute for the seat
belts. To ensure the maximum protection dur- ing all types of collisions and accidents, all occupants, including the passengers as well
as the driver, must wear their seat belts.How the Supplemental Re-
straint System works
E00407303460
The SRS includes the following components:
1- Airbag module (Driver)
Supplemental restraint system (SRS)-airbag
5-26OGGE18E1Seats and seat belts5

2- Front passenger’s airbag indicator
3- Airbag module (Passenger)
4- Driver’s knee airbag module
5- Front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF
switch
6- Side airbag modules
7- Curtain airbag modules
Only when the operation mode of the power switch is in ON, the airbags will operate.The airbags deployment produces a sudden,
loud noise, and releases some smoke and powder, but these conditions are not injuri- ous, and do not indicate a fire in the vehicle.
People with respiratory problems may feel
some temporary irritation from chemicals used to produce the deployment; open the
windows after airbag deployment, if safe to
do so.
The airbags deflate very rapidly after deploy-
ment, so there is little danger of obscured vi-sion.CAUTIONl Airbags inflate at an extremely rapid speed.
In certain situations, contact with inflatingairbags can result in abrasions, bruises, light
cuts, and the like.WARNINGl IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO BE
PROPERLY SEATED.
A driver or front passenger too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel
during airbag deployment can be killed or seriously injured.
Airbags inflate very fast, and with great force.
If the driver and front passenger are not
properly seated and restrained, the air-
bags may not protect you properly, and could cause serious or fatal injuries whenit inflates.
l Do not sit on the edge of the seat, or sit
with your lower legs too close to the in-
strument panel, or lean head or chest close to the steering wheel or instrument panel. Do not put feet or legs on or againstthe instrument panel.WARNINGl Place all infants and small children in the
rear seat and properly restrained using an
appropriate child restraint system.
The rear seat is the safest place for infants
and children.WARNINGl Infants and small children should never
be unrestrained, stand up against the in-strument panel or be held in your arms or on your lap. They could be seriously in-jured or killed in a collision, including when the airbag inflates. They should be
properly seated in the rear seat in an ap- propriate child restraint system. See the
“Child restraint” section of this owner’s
manual.
