To remove
WARNING
For some type of child restraint, the lock-
ing clip (A) should be used to help avoid
personal injury during a collision or sud-
den manoeuvre.
It must be fitted and used in accordance
with the child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions.
The locking clip must be removed when
the child restraint is removed.
Seat belt inspection
WARNING
All seat belt assemblies including retrac-
tors and attaching hardware should be
inspected by an authorised MITSUBISHI
MOTORS dealer after any collision. We
recommend that seat belt assemblies in
use during a collision be replaced unless
the collision was minor and the belts show
no damage and continue to operate prop-
erly.
Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of the seat belt assemblies; this work
should be done by an authorised
MITSUBISHI MOTORS dealer. Failure
to have an authorised MITSUBISHI
MOTORS dealer perform the work could
reduce the effectiveness of the belts and
could result in serious injury in the event
of a collision.
Once the pre-tensioner has activated, it
cannot be re-used.
It must be replaced together with the
retractor.
Do not insert any foreign objects (pieces of
plastic, paper clips, buttons, etc.) in the
buckle or retractor mechanism. In addi-
tion, do not modify, remove, or install the
seat belt. Otherwise, the seat belt may not
be able to provide adequate protection in a
collision or other situation.
A dirty belt should be cleaned with neu-
tral detergent in warm water. After rins-
ing in water, let it dry in the shade. Do not
attempt to bleach or re-dye the belts
because this affects their characteristics.
