Maintenance and inspection of seat belts
N00407000221
The seat belt webbing may be cleaned with mild soap or deter-
gent solution. Do not use an organic solvent. Allow the belts to
dry in the shade. Do not allow them to retract until completely
dry. Do not attempt to bleach or re-dye the belts. The color may
rub off and the webbing strength may be affected.
Regularly check your seat belt buckles and their release mech-
anisms for positive engagement and release of the latch plate.
Check the retractors for automatic locking when in the Auto-
matic Locking Retractor function.
The entire seat belt assembly should be replaced if the webbing
shows any obvious cuts, tears, increase in thickness in any sec-
tion of the webbing from broken fibers, or severe fading from
sunlight. All of these conditions indicate a weakening of the
belt, which may adversely affect seat belt performance in an
accident.
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) -
airbag
N00407700619
This vehicle is equipped with a Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS), which includes airbags for the driver and passengers.
The SRS front airbags are designed to supplement the primary
protection of the driver and front passenger seat belt systems
by providing those occupants with protection against head and
chest injuries in certain moderate to severe frontal collisions.
The SRS front airbags, together with sensors at the front of the
vehicle and sensors attached to the front seats, form an
advanced airbag system.
The SRS drivers knee airbag is designed to supplement the
primary protection of the drivers seat belt system. It can
reduce the forward movement of the drivers lower legs and
provide increased overall body protection in certain moderate
to severe frontal collisions.
The SRS side airbags (if so equipped) and the curtain airbags
(if so equipped) are also designed to supplement the seat belts.
The SRS side airbags provide the driver and front passenger
with protection against chest injuries by deploying the bag on
the side impacted in moderate to severe side impact collisions.
The SRS curtain airbags provide the driver and passengers on
the front seat and rear outboard seat with protection against
head injuries by deploying a bag on the side impacted in mod-
erate to severe side impact collisions.
WARNING
!
Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of the
seat belt assemblies. This work should be done by an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer. Failure to
have an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer per-
form the work could reduce the effectiveness of the
belts and could result in a serious injury or death in
an accident.
