Seat belt inspection

E00406300475
l Check the belts for cuts, worn or frayed web-
bing and for cracked or deformed metallic
parts. Replace the belt assembly if it is defec-
tive.
l A dirty belt should be cleaned with neutral de-
tergent 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 will af-
fect their characteristics.
WARNING
l We recommend you to have all seat belt
assemblies including retractors and at-
taching hardware inspected after any col-
lision. We recommend that seat belt as-
semblies in use during a collision be re-
placed 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 recom-
mend you to have this work done by a
MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point. Incorrect repair or replace-
ment could reduce the effectiveness of the
belts and could result in serious injury in
the event of a collision.
l Once the pretensioner has been activated,
it cannot be re-used.
It must be replaced together with the re-
tractor.
Supplemental restraint system
(SRS) - airbag
E00407201944
The information for SRS airbags includes impor-
tant information concerning the driver's and front
passenger's airbags, the driver's knee airbag, the
side airbags and the curtain airbags.
The SRS airbags are designed to supplement the pri-
mary 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 driver's knee airbag (if so equipped) is de-
signed to supplement the primary protection of the
driver's seat belt system. It can reduce the forward
movement of the driver's lower legs and provide in-
creased overall body protection in certain moderate-
to-severe frontal collisions.
The SRS side airbags (if so equipped) are designed
to supplement properly worn seat belts and provide
the driver and front passenger with protection
against chest and abdomen injuries in certain mod-
erate-to-severe side impact collisions.
The SRS curtain airbags (if so equipped) are de-
signed to supplement properly worn seat belts and
provide the driver and passenger with protection
against head injuries in certain moderate-to-severe
side impact collisions.
The SRS is NOT a substitute for the seat belts. To
ensure the maximum protection during all types of
collisions and accidents, all occupants, including
the passengers as well as the driver, must wear
their seat belts.
