Airbag System - Mitsubishi MIRAGE Service Manual

SRS warning light
There is a Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) warning light on the instrument panel.
The system checks itself every time the igni-
tion switch is turned to the "ON" position or
the operation mode is put in ON. The SRS
warning light will come on for several sec-
onds and then go out. This is normal and
means the system is working properly.
If there is a problem involving one or more of
the SRS components, the warning light will
come on and stay on.
The SRS warning light is shared by the SRS
airbag and the seat belt pre-tensioner system.
WARNING
 If any of the following conditions occur,

bags and/or seat belt pre-tensioners, and

operation mode is in ON, the SRS warn-
ing light does not come on or it remains
on.
• The SRS warning light comes on while
driving.
The SRS airbags and seat belt pre-ten-
sioners are designed to help reduce the
risk of serious injury or death in certain
collisions. If either of the above conditions
occurs, immediately have your vehicle
