Seat adjustment

E00400302073

Adjust the driver’s seat so that you are com-
fortable and that you can reach the pedals,
steering wheel, switches etc. while retaining
a clear field of vision.

WARNING

Do not attempt to adjust the seat while
driving. This can cause loss of vehicle con-
trol and result in an accident. After ad-
justments are made, ensure the seating is
locked in position by attempting to move
the seat forward and rearward without
using the adjusting mechanism.

Do not let children or adults ride in areas
of the vehicle that are not equipped with
seats or seat belts. Also, make sure that all
occupants are sitting in their seats and
wearing their seat belts, and that children
are sitting in child restraints.

To minimize the risk of personal injury in
the event of a collision or sudden braking,
the seatbacks should always be in the al-
most 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 in-
jury, when the seatback is reclined.

WARNING

Do not place objects under the seats. This
could prevent the seat from locking se-
curely, and it could lead to an accident. It
may also cause damage to the seat or oth-
er parts.

CAUTION

Make sure the seat is adjusted by an adult or
with adult supervision for correct and safe
operation.

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.

When sliding the seat rearward, be careful
not to catch your hand or foot.

Heated seats*

E00401102528

The heated seats can be operated with the ig-
nition switch or the operation mode in ON.
The indication lamp (A) will illuminate while
the heater is on.

1 (HI)

- Heater high (for quick heating).

- Heater off.

3 (LO)

- Heater low (to keep the seat
warm).

CAUTION

Switch off seat heaters when not in use.

CAUTION

Operate in the high position for quick heat-
ing. Once the seat is warm, set the heater to
low to keep it warm. Slight variations in seat
temperature may be felt while using the
heated seats. This is caused by the operation
of the heater’s internal thermostat and does
not indicate a malfunction.

If the following types of persons use the
heated seats, they might become too hot or
receive minor burns (red skin, heat blisters,
etc.):

•

Children, elderly or ill people

•

People with sensitive skin

•

Excessively tired people

•

People under the influence of alcohol or
sleep inducing medication (cold medicine,
etc.)

Do not place heavy objects on the seat or
stick pins, needles, or other pointed objects
into it.

Do not use a blanket, cushion, or other mate-
rial with high heat insulation properties on
the seat while using the heater; this might
cause the heater element to overheat

Do not use benzine, kerosene, petrol, alcohol
or other organic solvents when cleaning the
seats. Doing so could damage not only the
seat cover, but also the heater element.

If water or any other liquid is spilled on the
seat, allow it to dry thoroughly before at-
tempting to use the heater.

Turn the heater off immediately if it appears
to be malfunctioning during use.

Rear seat

E00401300412

WARNING

When a person sits in the rear seat, pull
up the head restraint to a height at which
it locks in position. Be sure to make this
adjustment before starting to drive. Seri-
ous injuries could otherwise be suffered as
the result of an impact.

Armrest*

E00401700650

To use the armrest, fold it down.
To return to the original position, push it
backward level with the seat.

NOTE

Head restraints

E00403301439

WARNING

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.

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 head restraint is as close as pos-
sible to eye level to reduce the chances of in-
jury in the event of collision. Any person too
tall for the head 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 adjust-
ment, push the head restraint downward and
make sure that it is locked.

To remove

To remove the head restraints, lift the head
restraint with the height adjusting knob (A)
pushed in.

Installation

To install the head restraints, first confirm
that they are facing the correct direction, and
then insert them into the seatback while
pressing the height adjusting knob (A) in the
direction indicated by the arrow.

CAUTION

Confirm that the height adjusting knob (A)
is correctly adjusted as shown in the illustra-
tion, and also lift the head restraints to en-
sure that they do not come out of the seat-
back.

Head restraints

straints, make sure the head restraints are fit-
ted in their respective seats and do not install
the head restraints in the wrong direction.

Making a luggage
compartment

E00403400231

WARNING

When making a luggage compartment,
never arrange the seats while the vehicle
is being driven or is on an incline. The
seats could move unexpectedly or more
than required and cause a serious acci-
dent.

If required, always operate the seating be-
fore the vehicle is in motion.

WARNING

Do not allow anyone to ride in the luggage
compartment while the vehicle is in mo-
tion. People who are not properly seated
and restrained can be seriously injured or
killed in an accident.

The luggage compartment in the rear of
the vehicle should never be used as a play
area by children.
Children should be seated with seat belts
fastened when the vehicle is in motion.

Confirm that the seatback locks securely
when it is returned.

CAUTION

Do not stack luggage in the vehicle higher
than the seatback height. Also, firmly secure
the luggage.
Serious accidents could result due to unre-
strained objects entering the passenger com-
partment during sudden braking.

Make sure that the seat is operated by an
adult. If it is operated by a child, an unex-
pected accident might occur.

Be careful not to catch your hands or feet
when arranging the seat. Personal injury
could result.

Folding the rear seatbacks for-

ward

E00403501675

The passenger and luggage compartments
can be joined by folding the seatback for-
ward. This is useful for carrying long objects.
The seatbacks can be folded with the rear
seat release button.

NOTE

The seatbacks can be folded one side at a
time.

To fold the seatbacks

Push the rear seat release button (A) to fold
the seatback forward.

To return the seatbacks

1. If the seat belt is removed from the seat

belt guide (B), pass it through the seat
belt guide.

2. Fold back the seatback until it is locked

properly in position.

NOTE

When the seat belts cannot be pulled out in a
locked condition, pull the belts once force-
fully and then return them.
After that, pull the belts out slowly once
again.

3. Make sure the seatback is locked firmly

in place and the seat belt is passed
through the seat belt guide (B).

CAUTION

If the red part (C) on the back of the rear
seat release button can be seen, the seatback
is not locked firmly in place. Push and pull
lightly on the seatback to lock it firmly in
place.

Seat belts

E00404800636

To protect you and your passengers in the
event of an accident, it is most important that
the seat belts be worn correctly while driving.
The front seat belts have a pretensioner sys-
tem. These belts are used the same way as a
conventional seat belt.
Refer to “Seat belt pretensioner system and
force limiter system” on page 4-14.

WARNING

Always place the shoulder belt over your
shoulder and across your chest. Never put
it behind you or under your arm.

One seat belt should be used by only one
person. Doing otherwise can be danger-
ous.

WARNING

The seat belt will provide its wearer with
maximum protection if the recliner seat-
back 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 im-
pact accident, and may be injured by the
belt or by striking the instrument panel or
seatbacks.

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.
Other children should always use proper
child restraint systems.

Remove any twists when using the belt.

No modifications or additions should be
made by the user which will either pre-
vent the seat belt adjusting devices from
operating to remove slack, or prevent the
seat belt assembly from being adjusted to
remove slack.

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.

Always adjust the belt to a snug fit.

Always wear the lap portion of the belt
over your hips.

Never wear the lap portion of the belt
across your abdomen. During accidents it
can press sharply against the abdomen
and increase the risk of injury.

The seat belts must not be twisted when
worn.

3. Pull the belt slightly to adjust slackness

as desired.

To unfasten

Hold the latch plate and push the button on
the buckle.

Warning display type 2

A tone and warning lamp are used to remind
the driver to fasten the seat belt.
If the ignition switch is turned to the “ON”
position or the operation mode is put in ON
while a seat belt is not fastened, the warning
lamp illuminates and the tone sounds for
about 6 seconds to remind the driver to fasten
the seat belt.

If the vehicle is driven without fastening the
seat belt, the warning lamp comes on and
flashes repeatedly, and the tone sounds con-
tinuously. At the same time, the warning dis-
play is displayed on the information screen in
the multi-information display.
The warning lamp goes off and the tone stops
after approximately 90 seconds.
Subsequently, if the seat belt is still not fas-
tened, the warning lamp and tone will be acti-
vated to remind the driver to fasten the seat
belt whenever the vehicle is stopped and star-
ted again. The warning will operate in the
same way if the seat belt is removed while
driving the vehicle. The warning will stop
when the seat belt is fastened.

Pregnant women restraint

E00405600077

WARNING

Seat belts work for everyone, including
pregnant women. Pregnant women should
use the available seat belts. This will re-
duce 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.

Seat belt pretensioner
system and force limiter
system

E00405700166

The driver’s seat and front passenger’s seat
each have a seat belt equipped with a preten-
sioner system.

Pretensioner system

E00405801135

When the ignition switch or the operation
mode is under the following conditions, if
there is a frontal impact or a side impact (ve-
hicles equipped with SRS side airbags and
SRS curtain airbags) severe enough to injure
the driver and/or front passenger, the preten-
sioner system will retract their respective seat
belts instantaneously, thus maximizing the
seat belt’s effectiveness.
[Except for vehicles equipped with keyless
operation system]
The ignition switch is in the “ON” or
“START” position.
[Vehicles equipped with keyless operation
system]
The operation mode is in ON.

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 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.

If you need to scrap the vehicle, please con-
sult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point.
It is important to do so because unexpected
activation of the pretensioner seat belts
could cause injuries.

NOTE

The pretensioner seat belts will be activated
if the vehicle suffers a severe frontal impact
or a severe side impact (vehicles equipped
with SRS side airbags and SRS curtain air-
bags), even if the seat belts are not worn.

The pretensioner seat belts are designed to
work only once. After the pretensioner seat
belts have been activated, we recommend
you have it replaced by a MITSUBISHI
MOTORS Authorized Service Point.

SRS warning

E00405900243

The same warning lamp/display is shared by
the SRS airbags and the pretensioner seat
belts.
Refer to “SRS warning lamp/display” on
page 4-36.

Force limiter system

E00406000209

In the event of a collision, each force limiter
system will effectively absorb the load ap-
plied to the seat belt to minimize the impact
to the passenger.

Child restraint

E00406403464

When transporting children in your vehicle,
some type of child restraint system should al-
ways be used according to the size of the
child. This is required by law in most coun-
tries.
The regulations concerning driving with chil-
dren in the front seat may differ from country
to country. You are advised to comply with
the relevant regulations.

WARNING

When possible, put children in the rear
seat. Accident statistics indicate that chil-
dren of all sizes and ages are safer when
properly restrained in the rear seat rather
than in the front seat.

Holding a child in your arms is no substi-
tute for a restraint system. Failure to use
a proper restraint system can result in se-
vere or fatal injury to the child.

Each child restraint device or fixing is to
be used only by one child.

When attaching a child restraint system
to the rear seat, prevent the front seat-
backs from touching the child restraint
system.
Otherwise, the child could be seriously in-
jured in the event of hard braking or a
collision.

Caution for installing the child

restraint on vehicles with a

front passenger airbag

The label shown here is attached on vehicles
with a front passenger airbag.

WARNING

Extreme Hazard!
NEVER use a rearward facing child re-
straint on a seat protected by an ACTIVE
AIRBAG in front of it, DEATH or SERI-
OUS INJURY to the CHILD can occur.

NOTE

The labels may be in different positions de-
pending on the vehicle model.
