Seat and restraint systems

When the seat belt pre-tensioners activate, some smoke is
released and a loud noise will be heard. The smoke is not harm-
ful, but care should be taken not to intentionally inhale it, as it
may cause some temporary irritation to people with respiratory
problems.
The pre-tensioners activate in the event of a moderate-to-
severe frontal impact, even if the seat belt is not being worn.
The seat belt pre-tensioners may not activate in certain frontal
collisions, even though the vehicle may appear to be severely
damaged. Such non-activation does not mean something is
wrong with the seat belt pre-tensioner system, but rather that
the collision forces were not severe enough or not of the type to
activate the system.
SRS warning
N00408700094
This warning tells you if there is a problem involving the SRS

Force limiter system

will help reduce the force applied to the driver and front seat

WARNING
!
● The seat belt pre-tensioner system is designed to
work only once. After the seat belt pre-tensioners
have been activated, they will not work again. They
must promptly be replaced and the entire seat belt
pre-tensioner system inspected by an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
