Side Airbag System - Mitsubishi MIRAGE Service Manual

WARNING
 Do not attach accessories to, or put them
in front of, the windshield. They could
restrict the airbag inflation, or strike and
injure an occupant, when the airbag
inflates.
 Do not attach additional keys or accesso-
ries (hard, pointed or heavy objects) to the
ignition key. Such objects could prevent
the driver's knee airbag from inflating
normally or could be propelled to cause
serious injury if the airbag inflates.
 Do not attach accessories to the lower por-
tion of the driver's side instrument panel.
Such objects could prevent the driver's
knee airbag from inflating normally or
could be propelled to cause serious injury
if the airbag inflates.
WARNING
 Do not attempt to remove, install, disas-
semble or repair the SRS airbags.
 Do not place objects, such as packages or
pets, between the airbags and the driver
or the front passenger. Such objects can
adversely affect airbag performance, or
cause serious injury or death when the
airbag deploys.
 Immediately after airbag inflation, some
parts of the airbag system will be hot. Do
not touch them. You could otherwise be
burned.
 The airbag system is designed to work
only once. After the airbags deploy, they
will not work again. They must promptly
be replaced and the entire airbag system
must be inspected by an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer.
