When the operation mode is in ON, if there is
a frontal impact or a side impact (vehicles
equipped with SRS side airbags and SRS cur-
tain airbags) severe enough to injure the
driver and/or front passenger, the pre-ten-
sioner system will retract their respective seat
belts instantaneously, thus maximizing the
seat belt’s effectiveness.

The same warning lamp/display is shared by
the SRS airbags and the pre-tensioner seat
belts.
Refer to “SRS warning lamp/display” on

Pregnant women restraint
WARNING
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 possible, but not
across the waist. Consult your doctor if
you have any additional questions or con-
cerns.

WARNING
To obtain the best results from your pre-
tensioner seat belt, make sure you have
adjusted your seat correctly and wear
your seat belt properly.
CAUTION
Installation of audio equipment or repairs in
the vicinity of the pre-tensioner seat belts or
floor console must be performed by an
authorised MITSUBISHI MOTORS dealer.
It is important to do so because the work
could affect the pre-tensioner systems.
If you need to scrap the vehicle, please con-
sult an authorised MITSUBISHI MOTORS
dealer. It is important to do so because unex-
pected activation of the pre-tensioner seat
belts could cause injuries.
NOTE
The pre-tensioner seat belts will be activated
if the vehicle suffers a severe impact, even if
the seat belts are not worn.
The pre-tensioner seat belts are designed to
work only once. After the pre-tensioner seat
belts have been activated, they must be
replaced by an authorised MITSUBISHI
MOTORS dealer.
