WARNING
l
To reduce risk of serious or fatal injury:
• Always remove the key from the igni-
tion switch before operating a front
passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch.
Failure to do so could adversely affect
the airbag performance.
• Wait at least 60 seconds to operate the
front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF
switch after turning the ignition
switch from “ON” position to
“LOCK” position.
The SRS airbag system is designed to
retain enough voltage to deploy the
airbag.
• Always remove the key from the front
passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch
after operating that switch. Failure to
do so could lead to improper position
of the front passenger’s airbag ON-
OFF switch.
• Do not turn OFF the front passen-
ger’s airbag ON-OFF switch except
when a rearward facing child re-
straint system is fitted to the front
passenger seat.
WARNING
• If the indication lamp does not come
on when the front passenger’s airbag
ON-OFF switch is turned OFF, do not
fit a rearward facing child restraint
system to the front passenger seat. We
recommend you to have the system in-
spected by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.
• If the indication lamp remains on
when the front passenger’s airbag
ON-OFF switch is turned ON, do not
allow anyone to sit on the front pas-
senger seat. We recommend you to
have the system inspected by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point.
To turn an airbag off, follow these steps:
1. Insert the key into the front passenger’s air-
bag ON-OFF switch, and turn it to the
“OFF” position.
2. Remove the key from the key opening of the
front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch.
3. Insert the key into the ignition switch, and
turn the ignition to the “ON” position. The
front passenger’s airbag OFF indication
lamp will stay on.
The front passenger’s airbag is now deactivated
and will not deploy until switched on again.
