The side airbag and curtain airbag are not
designed to deploy in situations where they
cannot provide protection to the occupants.
Typical situations where the side airbags and
curtain airbags cannot provide protection are
shown in the illustrations below.
Because the side airbags and curtain airbags
do not protect the occupants in all types of
collisions, be sure to always wear your seat
belts properly.

SRS servicing
WARNING
Any maintenance performed on or near
the components of the SRS should be per-
formed only by an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer. Do not permit anyone else
to do any service, inspection, maintenance
or repair on any SRS components or wir-
ing. Similarly, no part of the SRS should
ever be handled, removed or disposed by
anyone except an authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer.
Improper work methods on the SRS com-
ponents or wiring could result in an acci-
dental airbag deployment or could make
the SRS inoperable. Either of these situa-
tions could result in serious injury or
death.
Do not modify your steering wheel or any
other SRS component or related vehicle
part. For example, replacement of the
steering wheel, or modifications to the
front bumper or body structure can
adversely affect SRS performance and
may lead to injury.
If your vehicle has received any damage,
you should have the SRS inspected by an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer to
make sure it is in proper working order.
