Mitsubishi MOTORS MIRAGE G4 2022 Owner's Manual page 58

When the impact sensors detect a sufficient
front or side impact to deploy the airbag(s),
the appropriate airbag(s) will be deployed.
When the airbag control unit detects rollover
of the vehicle, curtain airbags will be
deployed.
When airbags deploy, some smoke is released
accompanied by a loud noise. The smoke is
not harmful, but do not intentionally inhale
the smoke as it may cause temporary irrita-
tion to people with respiratory problems.
An inflated airbag will deflate quickly, so you
may not even notice that the airbag was
inflated.
Airbag inflation does not prevent the driver
from seeing or being able to steer the vehicle,
and does not prevent people from leaving the
vehicle.
CAUTION
 Airbags inflate very quickly and with great
force. In certain situations, contact with an
inflating airbag may cause small cuts, abra-
sions, and bruises.
Driver's seat position sensor
The driver's seat position sensor is attached
to the seat rail and provides the airbag control
unit with information on the seat's fore-aft
position. The airbag control unit controls
deployment of the driver's front airbag in
accordance with the information it receives
from this sensor.
If there is a problem involving the driver's
seat position sensor, the SRS warning light in
the instrument panel will come on. Refer to
"SRS warning light" on page 4-31.
WARNING
 If the SRS warning light comes on, have
the vehicle inspected by an authorized
Mitsubishi Motors dealer as soon as possi-
ble.
 Please observe the following instructions
to ensure that the driver's seat position
sensor can operate correctly.
• Adjust the seat to the correct position,
and sit well back against the seatback.
Refer to "Front seats" on page 4-2.
• Do not recline the seatback more than
necessary when driving.
• Do not place metallic objects or luggage
under the front seat.
 If the vehicle is involved in a severe
impact, have the SRS sensor inspected by
an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer as
soon as possible.

Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) - airbag
Passenger's seat occupant clas-
sification sensor system
The passenger's seat occupant classification
sensor system is attached to the front passen-
ger seat cushion and provides the airbag con-
trol unit with information regarding the
occupant on the front passenger seat. The air-
bag control unit controls deployment of the
passenger's front airbag in accordance with
the information it receives from this system.
The passenger's front airbag will not deploy
in an impact when the system senses no occu-
pant on the front passenger seat or a child in a
child restraint system. In this case, the pas-
senger's airbag off indicator will illuminate.
Refer to "Passenger's airbag off indicator" on
page 4-30.
If there is a problem involving the passen-
ger's seat occupant classification sensor sys-
tem, the SRS warning light in the instrument
panel will come on.
Refer to "SRS warning light" page 4-31.
WARNING
 If any of the following conditions occur,
you should immediately have your vehicle
