Fuel selection
E00200102141
Recommended fuel
Cetane number (EN590)
51 or higher
CAUTION
l
Your
vehicle is designed to use only diesel
fuel that meets the EN 590 standard.
Use of any other type of diesel fuel would
adversely affect the engine’s performance
and durability.
NOTE
l
Due
to the separation of paraffin, the fluidity
of the fuel decreases considerably as the temperature falls.
Because of this fact there are two kinds of
fuel: “summer” and “winter”.
This must be considered in winter use.
Select either of the two kinds of fuel in accordance with ambient temperature.
Above -5 °C: “Summer” diesel
Below -5 °C: “Winter” diesel
When travelling abroad, find out in advance
about the fuels served in local service stations.
l
Poor-quality
diesel fuel can cause deposits to
form in the injector, resulting in black smoke
and rough idling.
If these problems occur, you are advised to
add a cleaning additive to the diesel fuel
when you refuel the vehicle.
The additive will break up and remove the deposits, thereby returning the engine to a normal condition.
Be sure to use a genuine MITSUBISHI DIESEL FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER. Using an
unsuitable additive could make the engine
malfunction. For details, please contact your
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service
Point.
Filling the fuel tank
E00200202025
WARNING
l
When
handling fuel, comply with the safety regulations displayed by garages and
filling stations.
l
Before removing the fuel cap, be sure to
get rid of your body’s static electricity by
touching a metal part of the car or the
fuel pump. Any static electricity on your
body could create a spark that ignites
fuel vapour.
l
Perform the whole refueling process
(opening the fuel tank filler door, removing the fuel cap, etc.) by yourself. Do not
let any other person come near the fuel
tank filler. If you allowed a person to
help you and that person was carrying
static electricity, fuel vapour could be ignited.
l
Do not move away from the fuel tank filler until refueling is finished. If you
moved away and did something else (for
example, cleaning your windscreen) partway through the refueling process, you
could pick up a fresh charge of static electricity.
l
If the tank cap must be replaced, use only
a MITSUBISHI MOTORS original part.

Type 2
Slide the cover (1). Insert the key in the cap

Turn the cap and remove it.
CAUTION
l
Since the fuel system may be under pressure, remove the fuel tank filler tube cap
slowly. This relieves any pressure or vacuum that might have built up in the fuel
tank. If you hear a hissing sound, wait until it stops before removing the cap. Otherwise, fuel may spray out, injuring you
or others.
4. Insert
the gun in the tank port as far as it
goes. Do not tilt the gun.
5. When the gun stops automatically, do not fill
with fuel any more.
6. To close, turn the fuel tank filler tube cap
slowly clockwise until you hear clicking
sounds, then gently push the fuel tank filler
door closed.

Installation of accessories
E00200300875
We
recommend you to consult your MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
l
The installation of accessories, optional
parts, should only be carried out within the
limits prescribed by law in your country, and
in accordance with the guidelines fitting instructions and warnings contained within the
documents accompanying the parts or accessories.
l
Improper installation of electrical components may cause an electrical fire if incorrectly fitted. Please refer to the Modification/alteration to the electrical or fuel systems section within this owner’s manual.
l
Using a cellular phone or radio set inside the
vehicle without an external antenna may
cause electrical system interference, which
could lead to unsafe vehicle operation.
l
Tyres and wheels which do not meet specifications must not be used.
Refer to the “Specifications” section for information regarding wheel and tyre sizes.
l
When fitting accessories, ensure that maximum gross vehicle weight and maximum
axle weight are not exceeded.
Important points!
Due to large number of accessory and replacement
parts of different manufactures available in the market, it is not possible, not only for MITSUBISHI
MOTORS, but also for a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point, to check whether the attachment or installation of such parts affects the
overall safety of your MITSUBISHI-vehicle.
Even when such parts are officially authorized, for
example
by a “general operators permit” (an appraisal for the part) or through the execution of the
part in an officially approved manner of construction, or when a single operation permit following
the attachment or installation of such parts, it cannot be deduced from that alone, that the driving safety of your vehicle has not been affected.
Consider also that there basically exists no liability
on the part of the appraiser or the official. Only in
the case of parts (MITSUBISHI MOTORS original
replacement or exchange parts as well as
MITSUBISHI MOTORS genuine accessories) that
are recommended and released by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point and that are attached or installed by a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point can you assume, that optimal safety has been provided. The same also pertains to modifications of MITSUBISHI vehicle
with respect to the production specifications. For
your own safety, in such cases, you should only undertake modifications according to the recommendations of a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point.
Modification/alterations to the
electrical or fuel systems
E00200400238
MITSUBISHI MOTORS CORPORATION
has always manufactured safe, high quality vehicles. In
order to maintain this safety and quality, it is important that any accessory that is to be fitted, or any
modifications carried out which involve the electrical or fuel systems, should be carried out in accordance with MITSUBISHI guidelines.
CAUTION
l
If
the wiring interferes with any part of
the vehicle bodywork or improper installation methods are used, i.e. protective
fuses not installed, etc.), electronic devices may be adversely affected, possibly resulting in an electrical fire or other failures that may cause an accident.

Electronic immobilizer (Anti-
theft starting system)
E00300200921
The
electronic immobilizer is designed to significantly reduce the possibility of vehicle theft. The
purpose of the system is to immobilize the vehicle
if an invalid start is attempted. A valid start attempt
can only be achieved (subject to certain conditions)
using a keyless operation system “registered” to
the immobilizer system.
NOTE
l
In the following cases, the vehicle may not
be able to receive the registered ID code
from the key. This means the engine will not
start even when the registered key is turned
to the “START” position.
• When the key contacts a key ring or other
metallic or magnetic object (Type A)
• When the key grip contacts metal of another key (Type B)
• When the key contacts or is close to other
immobilizing keys (including keys of other vehicles) (Type C)
In cases like these, remove the object or
additional key from the vehicle key and
turn the key back to the “ACC” or
“LOCK” position. Then try again to start
the engine.
If the engine does not start, we recommend
you to contact your MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
l
Two keys are provided.
If
you lose one of them, order a replacement
as soon as possible.
To obtain a key, take your vehicle and all remaining keys to a MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point.
If you need an extra spare key, take your vehicle and all the keys to a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point. All the
keys have to be re-registered in the immobilizer computer unit. The immobilizer allows
up to 8 different ID codes to be registered;
you can register a maximum of 8 keys for use.
CAUTION
l
Don’t
make any alterations or additions
to the immobilizer system; alterations or
additions could cause failure of the immobilizer.

Seat adjustment
E00400300200
Adjust
the driver’s seat so that you are comfortable
and that you can reach the pedals, steering wheel,
switches etc. while retaining a clear field of vision.
WARNING
l
Do
not attempt to adjust the seat while
driving. This can cause loss of vehicle control and result in an accident. After adjustments are made, ensure the seating is
locked in position by attempting to move
the seat forward and rearward without using the adjusting mechanism.
l
It is extremely dangerous to ride in the
cargo area (inside or outside) of a vehicle.
Also, the cargo area and rear seats should
never be used as a play area by children.
In a collision, people or children riding unrestrained in these areas are more likely
to be seriously injured or killed.
Do not allow people or children to ride in
any area of your vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat belts, and make
sure that everyone travelling in your vehicle is in a seat and wearing a seat belt, or
in the case of a child is strapped in a child
restraint.
WARNING
l
To minimize the risk of personal injury
in the event of a collision or sudden braking, the seatbacks should always be in the
almost upright position while the vehicle
is in motion. The protection provided by
the seat belts may be reduced significantly when the seatback is reclined. There is
greater risk that the passenger will slide
under the seat belt, resulting in serious injury, when the seatback is reclined.
CAUTION
l
Make
sure the seat is adjusted by an
adult or with adult supervision for correct and safe operation.
l
Do not place a cushion or the like between your back and the seatback while
driving. The effectiveness of the head restraints will be reduced in the event of an
accident.
l
When sliding the seats, be careful not to
catch your hand or foot.

Head restraints
E00403300995
WARNING
l
Driving
without the head restraints in
place can cause you and your passengers
serious injury or death in an accident. To
reduce the risk of injury in an accident, always make sure the head restraints are installed and properly positioned when the
seat is occupied.
l
Never place a cushion or similar device
on the seatback. This can adversely affect
head restraint performance by increasing
the distance between your head and the
restraint.
To adjust height
Adjust
the head restraint height so that the centre
of the restraint is as close as possible to eye level to
reduce the chances of injury in the event of collision. Any person too tall for the restraint to reach
their seated eye level, should adjust the restraint as
high as possible.
To raise the head restraint, move it upward. To lower
the restraint, move it downward while pushing
the height adjusting knob (A) in the direction of the
arrow. After adjustment, push the head restraint
downward and make sure that it is locked.
To remove
Lift
the head restraint with the height adjusting
knob (A) pushed in.
To install
Confirm
that the head restraint is facing the correct
direction, and then insert it into the seatback while
pressing the height adjusting knob (A) in the direction indicated by the arrow.
CAUTION
l
Confirm
that the height adjusting knob
(A) is correctly adjusted as shown in the

When installing head restraints, make
sure the front and rear head restraints
are fitted in their respective seats.
Seat belts
E00404800825
To
protect you and your passengers in the event of
an accident, it is most important that the seat belts
are worn correctly while driving.
A seat belt for a front seat equipped with an airbag
has a pretensioner system. These belts are used the
same way as a conventional seat belt.
Refer to “Seat belt pretensioner system and force
limiter system” on page 2-12 .
WARNING
l
Always
place the shoulder belt over your
shoulder and across your chest. Never
put it behind you or under your arm.
l
One seat belt should be used by only one
person. Doing otherwise can be dangerous.
l
The seat belt will provide its wearer with
maximum protection if the recliner seatback is placed in fully upright position.
When the seatback is reclined, there is
greater risk that the passenger will slide
under the belt, especially in a forward impact accident, and may be injured by the
belt or by striking the instrument panel
or seatbacks.
l
Seat belts should always be worn by every adult who drives or rides in this vehicle, and by all children who are tall
enough to wear seat belts properly.
l
Remove any twists when using the belt.
l
No modifications or additions should be
made by the user which will either prevent the seat belt adjusting devices from
operating to remove slack, or prevent the
seat belt assembly from being adjusted to
remove slack.
WARNING
l
To reduce risk of serious or fatal injury
in an accident, including the deploying
driver’s airbag, adjust the driver’s seat
as far back as possible while maintaining
a position that still allows good visibility
and good control of the steering wheel,
the brake and accelerator, and vehicle controls.
l
Never hold a child in your arms or on
your lap when riding in this vehicle, even
if you are wearing your seat belt. To do
so risks severe or fatal injury to the child
in a collision or sudden stop.
l
Always adjust the seat belt to a snug fit.
3-point type seat belt (with emergency locking mechanism)
E00404901126
This type of belt requires no length adjustment.

with an airbag has a pretensioner seat belt.
Pretensioner system
E00405801089
The pretensioner system will retract their respective
seat belts instantaneously, thus maximizing the
seat belt’s effectiveness, if there is a frontal impact
severe enough to injure the driver and/or front passenger and the ignition switch is in the “ON” or
“START” position.
The seat belt pretensioner includes the following
components:
1- Front impact sensors
2-
Seat belt pretensioners
3- Airbag control unit
WARNING
l
To obtain the best results from your pretensioner seat belt, make sure you have adjusted your seat correctly and wear your
seat belt properly.
CAUTION
l
Installation
of audio equipment or repairs in the vicinity of the pretensioner
seat belts or floor console must be performed in line with MITSUBISHI
MOTORS guidelines. It is important to
do so because the work could affect the
pretensioner systems.
l
If you need to scrap the vehicle, please consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized Service Point. It is important to do
so because unexpected activation of the
pretensioner seat belts could cause injuries.
NOTE
l
The
pretensioner seat belts will be activated
if the vehicle suffers a severe frontal impact,
even if the seat belts are not worn.
l
The pretensioner seat belts are designed to
work only once. After the pretensioner seat
belts have been activated, we recommend
you have them replaced by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.

Child restraint
E00406401297
When
transporting children in your vehicle, some
type of child restraint system should always be
used according to the size of the child. This is required by law in most countries.
The regulations concerning driving with children in
the front seat may differ from country to country.
You are advised to comply with the relevant regulations.
WARNING
l
When
possible, put children in the rear
seat. Accident statistics indicate that children of all sizes and ages are safer when
properly restrained in the rear seat rather than in the front seat. (Double cab and
Club cab)
l
Holding a child in your arms is no substitute for a restraint system. Failure to use
a proper restraint system can result in severe or fatal injury to the child.
l
Each child restraint device or fixing is to
be used only by one child.
l
When attaching a child restraint to the
rear seat, place the front seatbacks in the
upright position.
Otherwise, the child could be seriously injured in the event of hard braking or a collision. (Double cab and Club cab)
Caution for installing the child restraint on vehicles with a front passenger airbag
E00406500190
The
label shown here is attached on vehicles with a
front passenger airbag.
WARNING
l
Extreme Hazard!
Do
not use a rearward facing child restraint on a seat protected by an airbag in
front of it!
l
A REARWARD FACING CHILD RESTRAINT must NOT be used in the front
passenger seat if the front passenger’s airbag has not been deactivated. The force
of an inflating airbag could kill or cause
serious injuries to the child.
Front passenger’s airbag ON
NOTE
l
If
you have a rearward facing child restraint
system that cannot be fitted to any seat other
than the front passenger seat, be sure to turn
OFF the front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF
switch before using it. (Refer to “To turn an
airbag off” on page 2-30.)

WARNING
l
A FORWARD FACING CHILD RESTRAINT should not be used in the front
passenger seat whenever possible; if used
in the front passenger seat, adjust the
seat to the most rearward position.
Infants and small children
E00406600768
When transporting infants and small children in
your vehicle, follow the instruction given below.
Instruction:
l
For small infants, an infant carrier should be
used. For small children whose height when
seated allows the shoulder belt to lie in contact with the face or the throat, a child seat
should be used.
l
The child restraint system should be appropriate for the child’s weight and height and properly fit in the vehicle.
l
Before purchasing a child restraint system,
try installing it in the seat to make sure there
is a good fit. Because of the location of the
seat belt buckles and the shape of the seat
cushion, it may be difficult to securely install
some manufacturer’s child restraint systems.
If the child restraint system can be pulled forward or to either side easily on the seat cushion after the seat belt has been tightened,
choose another manufacturer’s child restraint
system.
WARNING
l
When
installing a child restraint system,
refer to the instructions provided by the
manufacturer of the restraint system. Failure to do so can result in severe or fatal
injury to the child.
l
After installation, push and pull the child
restraint system back and forth, and side
to side, to see that it is properly secured.
If the child restraint system is not installed securely, it may cause injury to the
child or other occupants in the case of accident or sudden stops.
WARNING
l
When the child restraint system is not in
use, keep your child restraint system secured with the seat belt or remove it from
the vehicle in order to prevent it from being thrown around inside the vehicle during an accident.
NOTE
l
Depending
on the seating position in the vehicle and the child restraint system that you
have, the child restraint can be attached using one of the following two locations:
• To the lower anchorage in the rear seat
ONLY if the child restraint has ISOFIX
mountings (Double cab, See page 2-25).
• To the seat belt (See page 2-26).
Older children

Seat belt inspection
E00406300475
l
Check
the belts for cuts, worn or frayed webbing and for cracked or deformed metallic
parts. Replace the belt assembly if defective.
l
A dirty belt should be cleaned with neutral detergent in warm water. After rinsing in water,
let it dry in the shade. Do not attempt to
bleach or re-dye the belts because this affects
their characteristics.
WARNING
l
We
recommend you have all seat belt assemblies including retractors and attaching hardware inspected 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 properly.
l
Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of the seat belt assemblies; we recommend you to have this work done by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point. Incorrect repair or replacement could reduce the effectiveness of the
belts and could result in serious injury in
the event of a collision.
l
Once the pretensioner has activated, it
cannot be re-used.
It must be replaced together with the retractor.
Supplemental restraint system
(SRS) - airbag*
E00407201797
The information written in this Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) section contains important
points concerning the driver, front passenger, side
and curtain airbags.
The SRS driver and front passenger airbags are designed to supplement the primary protection of the
driver and front passenger side seat belt systems by
providing those occupants with protection against
head and chest injuries in certain moderate-to-severe frontal collisions.
The SRS side airbag is designed to supplement the
properly worn seat belts and provide the driver and
front passenger with protection against chest injury
in certain moderate-to-severe side impact collisions.
The SRS curtain airbags are designed to supplement the properly worn seat belts and provide the
driver and passengers with protection against head
injuries in certain moderate-to-severe side impact
collisions.
The SRS is NOT a substitute for the seat belts; for
maximum protection in all types of crashes and accidents, seat belts should ALWAYS be worn by everyone who drives or rides in this vehicle.
WARNING
l
IT
IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ALWAYS PROPERLY WEAR YOUR
SEAT BELT, EVEN WITH AN AIRBAG:
WARNING
• Seat
belts help keep the driver and passengers properly positioned, which reduces injury risk in all collisions, and
reduces the risk of serious or fatal injuries when the airbags inflate.
During sudden braking just before a
collision, an unrestrained or improperly restrained driver or passengers can
move forward into direct contact with
or within close proximity to the airbag
which may then deploy during the collision.
The initial stage of airbag inflation is
the most forceful which could cause serious or fatal injuries if the occupant
contacts it at this stage.
• Seat belts reduce the risk of injury in
roll-overs, rear impact collisions, and
in lower-speed frontal collisions, because driver’s and passenger’s airbags are not designed to inflate in
those situations.
• Seat belts reduce the risk of being
thrown from your vehicle in a collision or roll-over.
l
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO BE PROPERLY SEATED.
A driver or front passenger too close to
the steering wheel or instrument panel
during airbag deployment can be killed
or seriously injured.
Airbags inflate very fast, and with great
force.
If the driver and front passenger are not
properly seated and restrained, the air-

WARNING
bags may not protect you properly, and
could
cause serious or fatal injuries when
it inflates.
• Before driving, adjust the driver’s
seat as far back as possible while still
maintaining complete control of the vehicle.
• Before driving, adjust the front passenger seat as far back as possible.
• Make sure all vehicle occupants are always properly restrained using the
available seat belts.
• With seat belts properly fastened, the
driver and passengers should sit well
back and upright without leaning
against the window or door.
l
Do not sit on the edge of the seat, or lean
head or chest close to the steering wheel
or instrument panel.
Do not put feet or legs on or against the
instrument panel.
WARNING
l
Infants and small children should never
be unrestrained, stand up against the instrument panel or be held in your arms
or on your lap. They could be seriously injured or killed in a collision, including
when the airbag inflates. They should be
properly seated in an appropriate child restraint system. See the “Child restraint”
section of this owner’s manual.
WARNING
l
A
REARWARD FACING CHILD RESTRAINT must NOT be used in the front
passenger seat if the front passenger’s airbag has not been deactivated. The force
of an inflating airbag could kill or cause
serious injuries to the child.

NOTE
l
If
you have a rearward facing child restraint

WARNING
l
Extreme Hazard!
Do
not use a rearward facing child restraint on a seat protected by an airbag in

How the Supplemental Restraint System works
E00407301352
The SRS includes the following components:
1- Airbag module (Driver)
2- Front
passenger’s airbag OFF indication lamp
3- Airbag module (Passenger)
4- Front impact sensors
5- Airbag control unit
6- Front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch
7- Side airbag modules
8- Side impact sensors
9- Curtain airbag modules
Seat and seat belts
2-29
2
OCRE12E1
The airbags will operate only when the ignition
switch is in the “ON” or “START” position.
When the airbag control unit detect an impact of sufficient frontal or side force, it sends an ignition signal to the airbag modules to ignite materials in the
inflator and generate gas and inflate the airbags.
The airbags deployment produces a sudden, loud
noise, and releases some smoke and powder, but
these conditions are not injurious, and do not indicate a fire in the vehicle. People with respiratory
problems may feel some temporary irritation from
chemicals used to produce the deployment; open
the windows after airbag deployment, if safe to do
so.
The airbags deflate very rapidly after deployment,
so there is little danger of obscured vision.
The time required from the sensors detecting an impact to deflation of the airbags after deployment is
shorter than a blink of an eye.
CAUTION
l
Airbags
inflate at an extremely rapid
speed. In certain situations, contact with
inflating airbags can result in abrasions,
light cuts, bruises, and the like.
Front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch
E00410100184
The front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch can
be
used to disable the front passenger’s airbag. If
you have a rearward facing child restraint system
that cannot be fitted to any seat other than the front
passenger seat, be sure to turn OFF the front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch before using it. (Refer
to “To turn an airbag off” on page 2-30.)
The front passenger’s airbag ON-OFF switch is located in the glove box.
WARNING
l
To reduce risk of serious or fatal injury:
• Always
remove the key from the ignition 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.
WARNING
• 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 ONOFF switch.

Driver’s and passenger’s front airbag system
E00407400330
The driver’s airbag is located under the padded cover
in the middle of the steering wheel. The front passenger’s airbag is contained in the instrument panel
above the glove box.
The driver’s airbag and the front passenger’s airbag
are designed to inflate at the same time even if
the passenger seat is not occupied.
Deployment of front airbags
E00407501354
The front airbags ARE DESIGNED TO DEPLOY when…
Head-on collision with a solid wall at speed of
approximately 25 km/h (16 mph) or higher
Moderate to severe frontal impact within the shaded
area between the arrows
Seat and seat belts
2-32
2
OCRE12E1
The front airbags are designed to deploy when the
vehicle suffers a moderate to severe frontal impact.
A typical condition is shown in the illustration.
The front airbags will deploy if the severity of impact is above the designed threshold level, comparable to an approximately 25 km/h (16 mph) collision when impacting straight into a solid wall that
does not move or deform. If the severity of the impact is below the above threshold level, the front airbags may not deploy. However, this threshold
speed will be considerably higher if the vehicle
strikes an object that absorbs the impact by either
deforming or moving (for example, another stationary vehicle, pole or a guard rail).
Because frontal collisions can easily move you out
of position, it is important to always properly wear
your seat belts. Your seat belts will help keep you
in a safe distance from the steering wheel and instrument panel during the initial stages of airbag deployment. The initial stage of airbag inflation is the
most forceful, and can possibly cause serious or fatal injuries. Moreover, the seat belts in your vehicle
are your primary means of protection in a collision.
The SRS airbags are designed to provide additional
protection. Therefore, for your safety and the safety of all occupants, be sure to always properly wear
your seat belts.
The front airbags MAY NOT DEPLOY when…
With certain types of frontal collisions, the vehicle’s body structure is designed to absorb the shock
to help protect the occupants from harm. (The vehicle body’s front area may deform significantly as it
absorbs the impact.) Under such circumstances, the
front airbags may not deploy irrespective of the deformation and damage to the vehicle body. Examples of some typical conditions are shown in the illustration.
Examples of some typical conditions are shown in
the illustration.
Because the front airbags do not protect the occupant in all types of frontal collisions, be sure to always properly wear your seat belts.

Because the front airbags do not protect the occupant in all types of collisions, be sure to always properly wear your seat belts.
Rear end collisions
Side collisions
Vehicle rolls onto its side or roof
The front airbags MAY DEPLOY when…
The
front airbags may deploy if the bottom of the
vehicle suffers a moderate-to-severe impact (undercarriage damage).
Examples of some typical conditions are shown in
the illustration.
Because the front airbags may deploy in certain
types
of unexpected impacts as shown in the illustration that can easily move you out of position, it
is important to always properly wear your seat
belts. Your seat belts will help keep you a safe distance from the steering wheel and instrument panel
during the initial stages of airbag deployment. The
initial stage of airbag inflation is the most forceful
and can possibly cause serious or fatal injuries if
you contact it at this stage.
Collision with an elevated median/island or kerb
Vehicle travels over a deep hole/pothole
Vehicle drives down a steep slope and hits the ground
WARNING
l
Do not attach anything to the steering
wheel padded cover, such as trim material, badges, etc. It might strike and injure
an occupant if the airbag inflates.
l
Do not set anything on, or attach anything to, the instrument panel above the
glove box. It might strike and injure an occupant if the airbag inflates.
WARNING
l
Do
not attach accessories to, or put them
in front of, the windscreen. These objects
could restrict the airbag inflation, or
strike and injure an occupant if the airbags inflate.
l
Do not put packages, pets or other objects between the airbags and the driver
or front passenger. It could affect airbag
performance, or could cause injury when

WARNING
l
Right after the airbag inflation, several
airbag system components will be hot. Do
not touch them; you could be burned.
l
The airbag system is designed to work only once. Once the airbags have deployed,
they will not work again. They must
promptly be replaced, and we recommend you to have the entire airbag system inspected by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.
Side airbag system
E00407600374
The side airbags (A) are contained in the driver and
front passenger seatbacks.
The
side airbag is designed to inflate only on the
side of the vehicle that is impacted, even with no
passenger in the front seat.
The label shown here is attached to the seatbacks
with a side airbag.
Curtain airbag system
E00409100474
The curtain airbags are contained in the front pillars
and roof side rail. The curtain airbag is designed to inflate only on the side of the vehicle that
is impacted, even with no passenger in the front
seat or rear seat.
Deployment of side airbags and curtain airbags
E00407701011
The side airbags and curtain airbags ARE DESIGNED TO DEPLOY when…
The
side airbags and curtain airbags are designed
to deploy when the vehicle suffers a moderate-tosevere side impact to the middle of the passenger
compartment.
The typical condition is shown in the illustration.
The seat belts in your vehicle are your primary
means
of protection in a collision. The SRS side airbags and curtain airbags are designed to provide additional protection. Therefore, for your safety and
the safety of all occupants, be sure to always properly wear your seat belts.

The side airbags and curtain airbags MAY NOT DEPLOY when…
With certain types of side collisions, the vehicle’s
body structure is designed to absorb the shock to
help protect the occupants from harm. (The vehicle
body’s side area may deform significantly as it absorbs the impact.) Under such circumstances, the
side airbags and curtain airbags may not deploy irrespective of the deformation and damage to the vehicle body.
Examples of some typical conditions are shown in
the illustration.
Because the side airbags and curtain airbags do not
protect the occupant in all types of side collisions,
be sure to always properly wear your seat belts.
Side impacts in an area away from the passenger
compartment

conditions are shown in the illustration.
Head-on collisions
Rear end collisions
Because the side airbags and curtain airbags do not
protect
the occupant in all types of collisions, be
sure to always properly wear your seat belts.
WARNING
l
The
side airbags and curtain airbags are
designed to supplement the driver and passenger seat belts in certain side impacts.
Seat belts should always be worn properly, and the driver and passenger should
sit well back and upright without leaning
against the window or door.
WARNING
l
The side airbags and curtain airbags inflate with great force. The driver and
front passenger should not put their arms
out the window, and should not lean
against the door, in order to reduce the
risk of serious or possible fatal injury
from the deploying side airbag and curtain airbag.
WARNING
l
Do
not allow a child to kneel on the passenger seat facing the passenger’s side
door, since the side airbags and curtain
airbags inflate with great force.
Otherwise, the child may be killed or seriously injured.
WARNING
l
Do
not allow any rear seat occupant to
hold onto the seatback of either front
seat, in order to reduce risk of injury
from the deploying side airbag. Special
care should be taken with children.
l
Do not place any objects near or in front
of the seatback of either front seat. They
could interfere with proper side airbag inflation, and also could cause injury if
thrown free by side airbag deployment.
l
Do not place stickers, labels or additional
trim on the seatback of either front seat.
They could interfere with proper side airbag inflation.
l
Do not install seat covers on seats with
side airbags. Do not re-cover seats that
have side airbags. This could interfere
with proper side airbag inflation.

WARNING
l
Do not attach a microphone (A) or any
other device or object around the part
where the curtain airbags (B) activate
such as on the windscreen, side door
glass, front and rear pillars and roof side
or assist grips. When the curtain airbags
inflate, the microphone or other device or
object will be hurled with great force or
the curtain airbags may not activate correctly, resulting in death or serious injury.
WARNING
l
Do not put a hanger or any heavy or pointed object on the coat hook.
If the curtain airbag was activated, any
such item could be propelled away with
great force and could prevent the curtain
airbag from inflating correctly. Hang
clothes directly on the coat hook (without
using a hanger).
Make sure there are no heavy or sharp objects in the pockets of clothes that you
hang on the coat hook.
l
Do not allow a child to lean against or
close to the front door even if the child is
seated in a child restraint system.
The child’s head should also not be
leaned against or be close to the area of
the seat where the side airbag and curtain airbag are located. It is dangerous if
the side airbag and curtain airbag inflate.
Failure to follow all of these instructions
could lead to serious or fatal injury to the
child.
l
We recommend work around and on the
side airbags and curtain airbags system
to be done by MITSUBISHI MOTORS
Authorized Service Point. Improper
work could result in inadvertent deployment of a side airbags and curtain airbags, or could render a side airbags and
curtain airbags inoperative; either situation could result in serious injury.
SRS warning lamp
E00407801201
There
is a Supplemental Restraint System (“SRS”)
warning lamp on the instrument panel. The system
checks itself and the lamp tells you if there is a problem. When the ignition switch is turned to the
“ON” or “START” position, the warning lamp
should illuminate for several seconds and then
should go out. This means the system is ready. If
an SRS airbag or pretensioner seat belt is not operating properly, the warning lamp comes on and
stays on.
The SRS warning lamp is shared by the SRS airbag
and the seat belt pretensioner system.
WARNING
l
If
any of the following conditions occur,
the SRS and/or seat belt pretensioners
are not working properly, and we recommend you to have it inspected by a

l
The
driving range is shown based on the accumulated fuel consumption data, however,
may be changed depending on the driving condition (road condition, driving behavior,
etc.). If the battery terminals are disconnected, the accumulated fuel consumption data
will be erased. It is recommended to use the
indication as reference.
l
When the vehicle is fueled, the driving range
will be updated. However, if the amount of
fueling is small, the indication may not be correct. Therefore, fill up the tank as much as
possible in case of fueling.
l
When the vehicle is stopped on a steep slope,
the value of the driving range may increase.
This is caused by the fuel movement inside
the tank on the slope and is not deemed as a
failure.
Resetting the driving range
Press the “RESET” function button to reset the driving range plotted in graph.
NOTE
l
Pressing
the “RESET” function button will
not reset the indication (C).
