WARNING
To reduce the risk to a front seat passen-
ger of serious injury or death from a
deploying airbag, make sure the passenger
always wears the seat belt properly,
remains seated all the way back and
upright in their seat, and moves the seat as
far back as possible. Refer to "Supplemen-
tal Restraint System (SRS) - airbag" on
page 4-33 for additional information.
Never hold an infant or child in your arms
or on your lap when riding in this vehicle
even when you are wearing your seat belt.
Never place any part of the seat belt you
are wearing around an infant or child.
Failure to follow these simple instructions
creates a risk of serious injury or death to
your child in the event of an accident or
sudden stop.
Children 12 years old and under should
always ride in the rear seat and be prop-
erly restrained. This reduces their risk of
serious injury or death in an accident,
especially due to a deploying front passen-
ger's airbag. Refer to "Child restraint sys-
tems"
on page 4-25 for
information.
Any child who is too small to properly
wear a seat belt must be properly
restrained
in
an
appropriate
restraint system.
Infants MUST be placed in a rear-facing
child safety seat and positioned in the rear
seat.
WARNING
In the event of an accident, all seat belt
assemblies,
including
attachment hardware, should be inspected
by a certified Mitsubishi EV dealer to
determine whether replacement is neces-
sary.
Seat belt instructions
All seats are equipped with a seat belt which
uses one combined lap-and-shoulder belt with
an emergency locking retractor.
This system is designed to provide both com-
fort and safety. It permits full extension and
automatic retraction of the belts during nor-
mal vehicle operation. A sensing device
inside the belt retractor is designed to lock the
retractor in the event of a sudden change in
the vehicle's motion.
NOTE

For instructions on installing a child restraint
system using a seat belt, refer to "Installing a
child restraint system using the seat belt" on
page 4-30.
child
1. Occupants should always sit back in their
seats with their backs against the upright
seatback. To reduce the risk of serious
retractors
and
injury or death during deployment of the
airbag, adjust the driver's seat as far back
as possible while maintaining a position
that still enables you to fully apply the
pedals, easily control the steering wheel,
and safely operate the vehicle. The front
passenger seat should also be moved as

far back as possible. Refer to "Supple-
mental Restraint System (SRS) - airbag"
on page 4-33. Also refer to "To adjust the
seat forward or backward" on page 4-5.
