PRECAUTIONS ON CHILD
RESTRAINTS
WARNING
.
Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions for proper use and installation of
child restraints could result in serious
injury or death of a child or other
passengers in a sudden stop or collision:
— The child restraint must be used
and installed properly. Always
follow all of the child restraint
manufacturer’s instructions for
installation and use.
— Infants and children should never
be held on anyone’s lap. Even the
strongest adult cannot resist the
forces of a collision.
— Do not put a seat belt around
both a child and another passen-
ger.
— Mitsubishi Motors recommends
that all child restraints be in-
stalled in the rear seat. Studies
show that children are safer when
properly restrained in the rear
seat than in the front seat. If you
must install a forward-facing
child restraint in the front seat,
see “Forward-facing child re-
straint installation using the seat
belts” (P.1-39).
— Even with the Advanced Airbag
System, never install a rear-facing
child restraint or infant restraint
in the front seat. An inflating
airbag could seriously injure or
kill a child. A rear-facing child
restraint or infant restraint must
only be used in the rear seat.
— Be sure to purchase a child
restraint that will fit the child
and vehicle. Some child restraints
may not fit properly in your
vehicle.
— Child restraint anchorages are
designed to withstand only those
loads imposed by correctly fitted
child restraints. Under no circum-
stances are they to be used to
attach adult seat belts, or other
items or equipment to the vehicle.
Doing so could damage the child
restraint anchorages. The child
restraint will not be properly
installed using the damaged an-
chorage, and a child could be
