The curtain airbags are contained in the front pillars and roof side rail. 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 airbags will 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 airbag when it deploys. To reduce the risk of in
jury from a deploying
side airbag and curtai
n airbag, all occu-
pants must be properly restrained and seated well back, upright, and in the mid- dle of the seat. Do
not lean against the
door.
WA R N I N G In order to reduce the risk of injury from a deploying side airb
ag, do not allow any
rear seat passengers to hold onto the back of either front seat. Special care should betaken with children. Do not place any obje
cts around the area
where the side airbags deploy. Such objects can interfere with proper side air- bag deployment, and cause injury duringdeployment of the side airbag. Do not place stickers,
labels or additional
trim on the back of either front seat. They can interfere with proper side airbag deployment.
Do not attach a microphone (A) or any other object around the part where thecurtain airbag deploys
, such as on the
windshield, side door glass or front and rear 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 inflate correctly, resulting in death or seriousinjury.WA R N I N G Do not install seat c
overs or re-cover seats
that have side airb
ags. Covers can inter-
fere with proper si
de airbag deployment
and adversely affect
side airbag perfor-
mance. Never install a rear-facing child restraint system in the front passenger seat. Rear- facing child restraint systems MUST ONLY be used in the rear seat.WA R N I N G

The side airbag and curtain airbag are designed to deploy when
the vehicle suffers a
moderate to severe side
impact to the middle
of the passenger compartment. Also when the vehicle detects rollover of the vehicle, the curtain air bags will deploy.Typical situations are
shown in the illustra-
tion.
The seat belts in your vehicle are your pri- mary means of protection in an accident. TheSRS side airbags and curtain airbags are designed to provide additional protection. Therefore, for your safety and the safety of alloccupants, be sure to
always wear your seat
belts properly. In certain types of side
collisions, the side air-
bag and curtain airbag may not deploy, even if the deformation of the body seems to belarge, because the vehicle’s body structure is designed to absorb the impact and to deform in order to help protect the occupants. Thereare also cases where the side airbag and cur- tain airbag may not deploy at the same time, depending on the location of the impact.Some typical situations
where the side air-
bags and curtain airbags may not deploy are shown in the illustrations on the followingpage. Since the side airbags and curtain airbags do not protect the occupant
in all types of side
collisions, be sure to
always wear the seat
belts properly.
Front-facing child restraint systems should 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, and make sure that the child stays in the childrestraint system, properly restrained and away from the door. Do not allow a child to lean against or sit close to the passenger door, even if the child is seated in a child restraint system.The child’s head sh
ould also not lean
against or be close to the section of the seatback where the side airbag and cur-tain airbag are located. It is dangerous if the 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
Mitsubishi Motors deal
er. There is a risk
of a serious injury
or death. Improper
work methods can cause accidental sideairbag or curtain ai
rbag deployment, or
render a side airb
ag or curtain airbag
inoperable. Either of these situationscould result in serious injury or death.WA R N I N G

For a safer and more enjoyable trip, always check for the following:
Before starting the ve
hicle, 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 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. Check the 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 children are properly restrained in accordance with all laws and regulations.
Check these by selectin
g the defroster mode,
and set the blower switch on high. You shouldbe able to feel the air blowing against the windshield. Refer to “Defrosti
ng or defogging (wind-
shield, door windows)” on page 7-9.
NOTE
The shape of the mat and the number of retaining clips may
vary depending on the
vehicle model.WA R N I N G If a floor mat is the
wrong size or is not
properly installed, it can interfere with the operation of the pedals. Interference with the pedals can cause unintended accelera-tion and/or increase
d stopping distances
resulting in a cras
h and injury. Always
make sure the floor mat does not interferewith the accelerator or brake pedal. Always use the retaining clip on the driver’s floorboard to secure the floor mat. Always install the mat with the correct side facing down. Never install a second mat over or under an existing floor mat. Do not use a floor mat designed for another model vehicle even if it is a Mitsubishi Motors Genuine floor mat. Before driving, be sure to check the fol- lowing:• Periodically check that the floor mat is properly secured with the retaining clips. If you remove the fl
oor mat while clean-
ing the inside of you
r vehicle or for any
other reason, always
check the condition
of the floor mat afte
r it has been rein-
stalled.
• While the vehicle is stopped with theengine off, check that the floor mat is notinterfering with the pedals by depressingthe pedals fully.
