Children who have outgrown a child restraint system should be seated in the rear seat andwear the seat belt. If the shoulder belt crosses their face or neck, and/or the lap belt crosses their stomach, a commercially available
booster seat must be used to raise the child so that the shoulder belt crosses their shoulder and the lap belt remains positioned low across their hips. The booster seat should fitthe vehicle seat and have a label certifying compliance with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards or Motor Vehicle RestraintSystems and Booster Seats Safety Regula- tions.
WA R N I N G Child restraint system tether anchors are designed only to withstand loads from cor- rectly fitted child restraint systems. Under no circumstances are they to be used for adult seat belts, harnesses, for attachingother items, or equipment to the vehicle.
Children who have outgrown child restraint systems
WA R N I N G Any child who is too small to properly wear a seat belt must be properly restrained in an appropriate child restraint system, to reduce their risk ofserious injury or death in an accident. A child should never be left unattended in, or unsupervised around, your vehicle. When you leave the vehicle, always take the child out as well. Children can die from he
at stroke if left or
trapped inside the vehicle, especially onhot days. Keep your vehicle locked when not in use. Keep your vehicle keys away from chil- dren.

WA R N I N G Always keep the doors tightly closed and locked when driving. An unlocked door may be accidentally opened by a passen-ger, especially by a child who could fall out. Also, if the doors are not locked, there is a greater risk of someone being thrownfrom the vehicle in an accident.
Liftgate
WA R N I N G The luggage compartment was not designed for people to ride in it. Do not letpassengers ride in or
let children play in
the luggage compartment. Riding or play- ing in the luggage compartment couldresult in a serious accident or injury. Before driving, be sure that the liftgate is securely closed. It is dangerous to drive with the liftgate open
since carbon monox-
ide (CO) gas contained in engine exhaust gases can enter the passenger compart- ment.CO is an invisible, odorless gas that can cause unconsciousness and even death. In addition, if the liftgate opens whiledriving, luggage could fall onto the road and cause an accident.
 When opening and closing the liftgate, make sure that there are no people nearby and be careful not to hit your head or pinch your hands, neck, etc. If snow or ice has accumulated on the lift- gate, remove it before opening the liftgate. Otherwise the liftgate may abruptly closedue to the weight of the snow or ice. When opening the liftgate, always fully open it. A partially opened liftgate can unexpectedly close due to its own weight. When the vehicle is pa
rked on a slope, the
effort required to open or close the liftgate may be greater or less than expected.The liftgate may also open or close more quickly.CAUTION Do not stand behind the exhaust pipe when loading and unloading luggage. Heat fromthe exhaust could lead to burns. To avoid damage to the liftgate, make sure that area above and behind the liftgate is clear before opening it.WA R N I N G
NOTE
 Locking and unlocking the doors by using power door locks (driver and front passenger side), keyless entry system, or F.A.S.T.-key operation (vehicles equipped with the F.A.S.T.-key) also locks and unlocks the lift-gate.

For a safer and more enjoyable trip, always check for the following:  Before starting the vehicle, make certain that you and all passengers are seated and wearing their seat belts properly (with children in the rear seat, in appropriaterestraints), and that all the doors and the liftgate are locked.  Move the driver’s seat as far backward as possible, 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 far back as possible.  Make sure that infants and small children are properly restrained in accordance with all laws and regulations.
Check these by selecting the defroster mode, and set the blower switch on high. You shouldbe able to feel the air blowing against the windshield. Refer to “Defrosting or defogging (wind-shield, door windows)” on page 7-13, 7-22. Check all the tires for heavy tread wear or uneven 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 heavily worn out.As your vehicle is equipped with a tire pres- sure monitoring system, there is a risk of damage to the tire inflation pressure sensorswhen the tire is replaced on the rim. Tire replacement should, only, be performed by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. Have someone watch while you turn all the exterior lights on and off. Also check the turn
signal indicators and high-beam indicators on the instrument panel. Check the ground under the vehicle after parking overnight, for fuel, water, oil, or other leaks. Make sure all the fluid levels are correct. Also, if you can smell fuel, you needto find out why immediately and have itfixed.

Even this vehicle’s safety equipment, andyour safest driving, cannot guarantee that you can avoid an accident or injury. However, if you give extra attention to the followingareas, you can better protect yourself and your passengers:  Drive defensively. Be aware of traffic, road and weather conditions. Leave plentyof stopping distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead.  Before changing lanes, check your mir- rors, blind spots, and use your turn signal light.  While driving, watch the behavior of other drivers, bicyclists, and pedestrians.
