WARNING

WARNINGS REGARDING SERVICING OF SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) EQUIPPED VEHICLES

WARNING

•

Improper service or maintenance of any component of the SRS, or any SRS-related component, can lead to

personal injury or death to service personnel (from inadvertent firing of the air bag) or to the driver and

passenger (from rendering the SRS inoperative).

•

Service or maintenance of any SRS component or SRS-related component must be performed only at an

authorized MITSUBISHI dealer.

•

MITSUBISHI dealer personnel must thoroughly review this manual, and especially its GROUP 52B - Supplemental

Restraint System (SRS) before beginning any service or maintenance of any component of the SRS or any

SRS-related component.

NOTE

The SRS includes the following components: SRS air bag control unit, SRS warning light, front impact sensors, air bag module,

clock spring, and interconnecting wiring. Other SRS-related components (that may have to be removed/installed in connection

with SRS service or maintenance) are indicated in the table of contents by an asterisk (*).
