Pregnant women restraint
E00405600077
WARNING
l
Seat
belts work for everyone, including
pregnant women. Pregnant women
should use the available seat belts. This
will reduce the likelihood of injury to
both the woman and the unborn child.
The lap belt should be worn across the
thighs and as snug against the hips as pos-
sible, but not across the waist. Consult
your doctor if you have any additional
questions or concerns.

force limiter system

The driver’s seat and front passenger’s seat each
have a seat belt equipped with a pretensioner system.
Pretensioner system
E00405801135
When the ignition switch or the operation mode is
under
the following conditions, if there is a frontal
impact or a side impact (vehicles equipped with
SRS side airbags and SRS curtain airbags) severe
enough to injure the driver and/or front passenger,
the pretensioner system will retract their respective
seat belts instantaneously, thus maximizing the seat
belt’s effectiveness.
[Except for vehicles equipped with keyless opera-
tion system]
The ignition switch is in the “ON” or “START” po-
sition.
[Vehicles equipped with keyless operation system]
The operation mode is in ON.
WARNING
l
To
obtain the best results from your pre-
tensioner seat belt, make sure you have ad-
justed your seat correctly and wear your
seat belt properly.
CAUTION
l
Installation of audio equipment or re-
pairs in the vicinity of the pretensioner
seat belts or floor console must be per-
formed in line with MITSUBISHI
MOTORS guidelines. It is important to
do so because the work could affect the
pretensioner systems.
l
If you need to scrap the vehicle, please con-
sult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Author-
ized Service Point.
It is important to do so because unexpec-
ted activation of the pretensioner seat
belts could cause injuries.
NOTE
l
The
pretensioner seat belts will be activated
if the vehicle suffers a severe frontal impact
or a severe side impact (vehicles equipped
with SRS side airbags and SRS curtain air-
bags), even if the seat belts are not worn.
l
The pretensioner seat belts are designed to
work only once. After the pretensioner seat
belts have been activated, we recommend
you have it replaced by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
