or  closed  by  operating  the  corresponding
switch.
Press  the  switch  down  to  open  the  window,
and pull up the switch to close it.
If the switch for the driver’s window is fully
pressed down/pulled up, the door window au-
tomatically opens/closes completely.
If  you  want  to  stop  the  window  movement,
operate the switch lightly in the reverse direc-
tion.

Passenger’s switches

The passenger’s switches can be used to op-
erate the corresponding passenger’s door
windows.

Press the switch down for opening the win-
dow, and pull up the switch for closing it.

NOTE

Repeated operation with the engine stopped
will run down the battery. Operate the win-
dow switches only while the engine is run-
ning.

The rear door windows only open halfway.

Timer function

E00302402080

The door windows can be opened or closed
for 30 seconds after the engine is stopped.
However, once the driver’s door or the front
passenger’s door is opened, the windows can-
not be operated.

Safety mechanism (driver’s

window only)

E00302502108

When  the  door  window  is  automatically
closed  by  pulling  up  the  switch  fully,  if  a
hand  or  head  is  trapped  in  the  closing  win-
dow, it will lower automatically.
Nonetheless,  make  sure  that  nobody  puts
their  head  or  hand  out  of  the  window  when
closing the driver’s door window.
The lowered window will become operation-
al after a few seconds.

WARNING

If the battery terminals are disconnected
or the fuse for electric window is replaced,
the safety mechanism will be cancelled.
If a hand or head got trapped, a serious
injury could result.

CAUTION

The safety mechanism is cancelled just be-
fore the window is fully closed. This allows
the window to close completely. Therefore
be especially careful that no fingers are trap-
ped in the window.

The safety mechanism is deactivated while
the switch is pulled up. Therefore be espe-
cially careful that fingers are not trapped in
the door window opening.

NOTE

The safety mechanism can be activated if the
driving conditions or other circumstances
cause the driver’s door window to be subjec-
ted to a physical shock similar to that caused
by a trapped hand or head.

If  the  safety  mechanism  is  activated  five  or
more  times  in  a  row,  the  safety  mechanism
will be cancelled and the door window will
not close correctly.
In  such  a  case,  the  following  procedure
should  be  implemented  to  rectify  this  situa-
tion. If the window is open, repeatedly raise
the  driver’s  door  window  switch  until  that
window  has  been  fully  closed.  Following
this, release the switch, raise the switch once
again and hold it in this condition for at least
1 second, then release it. You should now be
able to operate in the normal fashion.

If  the  battery  terminals  are  disconnected  or
the fuse for electric window is replaced, the
safety  mechanism  will  be  cancelled  and  the
door  window  will  not  automatically  open/
close completely.
If  the  window  is  open,  repeatedly  raise  the
driver’s  door  window  switch  until  the  win-
dow  has  been  fully  closed.  Following  this,
release  the  switch,  raise  the  switch  once
again and hold it in this condition for at least
1 second, then release it. You should now be
able to operate the driver’s door window in
the normal fashion.

Seat adjustment

E00400301887

Adjust the driver’s seat so that you are com-
fortable and that you can reach the pedals,
steering wheel, switches etc. while retaining
a clear field of vision.

WARNING

Do  not  attempt  to  adjust  the  seat  while
driving. This can cause loss of vehicle con-
trol  and  result  in  an  accident.  After  ad-
justments are made, ensure the seating is
locked  in  position  by  attempting  to  move
the  seat  forward  and  rearward  without
using the adjusting mechanism.

It is extremely dangerous to ride in the
cargo area (inside or outside) of a vehicle.
Also, the cargo area and rear seats should
never be used as a play area by children.
In a collision, people or children riding
unrestrained in these areas are more like-
ly to be seriously injured or killed.

Do not allow people or children to ride in
any area of your vehicle that is not equip-
ped with seats and seat belts, and make
sure that everyone travelling in your vehi-
cle is in a seat and wearing a seat belt, or
in the case of a child is strapped in a child
restraint.

WARNING

To minimize the risk of personal injury in
the event of a collision or sudden braking,
the  seatbacks  should  always  be  in  the  al-
most  upright  position  while  the  vehicle  is
in motion. The protection provided by the
seat  belts  may  be  reduced  significantly
when  the  seatback  is  reclined.  There  is
greater  risk  that  the  passenger  will  slide
under the seat belt, resulting in serious in-
jury, when the seatback is reclined.

Do not place objects under the seats. This
could prevent the seat from locking se-
curely, and it could lead to an accident. It
may also cause damage to the seat or oth-
er parts.

CAUTION

Make sure the seat is adjusted by an adult or
with adult supervision for correct and safe
operation.

Do not place a cushion or the like between
your back and the seatback while driving.
The effectiveness of the head restraints will
be reduced in the event of an accident.

The  reclining  mechanism  of  the  front  man-
ual seat’s seatback is spring loaded, causing
it to fold the seatback forward when the lock
lever  is  operated.  When  using  the  lever,  sit
close  to  the  seatback  or  hold  it  with  your
hand to control its return motion.

When sliding the seats, be careful not to
catch your hand or foot.

CAUTION

If your vehicle is equipped with the rear
seat, when sliding or reclining the seat rear-
ward, pay careful attention to the rear seat
passengers. (Club cab and Double cab)

warm).

CAUTION

Operate in the high position for quick heat-
ing. Once the seat is warm, set the heater to
low to keep it warm. Slight variations in seat
temperature may be felt while using the
heated seats. This is caused by the operation
of the heater’s internal thermostat and does
not indicate a malfunction.

If  the  following  types  of  persons  use  the
heated  seats,  they  might  become  too  hot  or
receive  minor  burns  (red  skin,  heat  blisters,
etc.):

•

Children, elderly or ill people

•

People with sensitive skin

•

Excessively tired people

•

People under the influence of alcohol or
sleep inducing medication (cold medicine,
etc.)

Do not place heavy objects on the seat or
stick pins, needles, or other pointed objects
into it.

Do not use a blanket, cushion, or other mate-
rial with high heat insulation properties on
the seat while using the heater; this might
cause the heater element to overheat

Do not use benzine, kerosene, petrol, alcohol
or other organic solvents when cleaning the
seats. Doing so could damage not only the
seat cover, but also the heater element.

Head restraints*

E00403302869

WARNING

Driving  without  the  head  restraints  in
place  can  cause  you  and  your  passengers
serious injury or death in an accident. To
reduce  the  risk  of  injury  in  an  accident,
always make sure the head restraints are
installed  and  properly  positioned  when
the seat is occupied.

Never place a cushion or similar device on
the seatback. This can adversely affect
head restraint performance by increasing
the distance between your head and the
restraint.

To adjust height

Front seats

Adjust  the  head  restraint  height  so  that  the
centre of the head restraint is as close as pos-
sible to ear level to reduce the chances of in-
jury in the event of collision. Any person too
tall for the head restraint to reach their seated
ear  level,  should  adjust  the  restraint  as  high
as possible.
To  raise  the  head  restraint,  move  it  upward.
To  lower  the  restraint,  move  it  downward
while  pushing  the  height  adjusting  knob  (A)
in  the  direction  of  the  arrow.  After  adjust-
ment,  push  the  head  restraint  downward  and
make sure that it is locked.

Seat belts

E00404802089

To  protect  you  and  your  passengers  in  the
event of an accident, it is most important that
the  seat  belts  are  worn  correctly  while  driv-
ing.
The front seat belts each have a pretensioner
system. (Single cab and Club cab)
The  front  seat  belts  and  the  rear  outer  seat
belts each have a pretensioner system. (Dou-
ble cab)
These belts are used the same way as a con-
ventional seat belt.
Refer  to  “Seat  belt  pretensioner  system  and
force limiter system*” on page 4-10.

WARNING

Seat belts should always be worn by every
adult who drives or rides in this vehicle,
and by all children who are tall enough to
wear seat belts properly.
Other children should always use proper
child restraint systems.

Always place the shoulder belt over your
shoulder and across your chest. Never put
it behind you or under your arm.

One seat belt should be used by only one
person. Doing otherwise can be danger-
ous.

WARNING

The seat belt will provide its wearer with
maximum  protection  if  the  recliner  seat-
back  is  placed  in  fully  upright  position.
When  the  seatback  is  reclined,  there  is
greater  risk  that  the  passenger  will  slide
under the belt, especially in a forward im-
pact accident, and may be injured by the
belt or by striking the instrument panel or
seatbacks.

Remove any twists when using the belt.

No  modifications  or  additions  should  be
made  by  the  user  which  will  either  pre-
vent  the  seat  belt  adjusting  devices  from
operating to remove slack, or prevent the
seat belt assembly from being adjusted to
remove slack.

Never hold a child in your arms or on
your lap when riding in this vehicle, even
if you are wearing your seat belt. To do so
risks severe or fatal injury to the child in
a collision or sudden stop.

Always adjust the seat belt to a snug fit.

Always wear the lap portion of the belt
over your hips.

3-point type seat belt (with

emergency locking mechanism)

E00404902888

This type of belt requires no length adjust-
ment. Once worn, the belt adjusts itself to the
movement of the wearer, but in the event of a
sudden or strong shock, the belt automatical-
ly locks to hold the wearer’s body.

NOTE

You can check if the belt locks by pulling it
forward quickly.

To fasten

1. Pull the seat belt out slowly while hold-

ing the latch plate.

NOTE

When the seat belts cannot be pulled out in a
locked condition, pull the belts once force-
fully and then return them. After that, pull
the belts out slowly once again.

2. Insert the latch plate into the buckle until

a “click” is heard.

Pretensioner system

E00405802464

When  the  ignition  switch  or  the  operation
mode  is  under  the  following  conditions,  if
there is a frontal impact or a side impact (ve-
hicles  equipped  with  SRS  side  airbags  and
SRS curtain airbags) severe enough to injure
the  driver  and/or  front  passenger  or  when  a
rollover  or  overturning  of  the  vehicle  is  de-
tected (if so equipped), the pretensioner sys-
tem  will  retract  the  respective  seat  belts  in-
stantaneously,  thus  maximizing  the  seat
belt’s effectiveness.
[Except  for  vehicles  equipped  with  keyless
operation system]
The  ignition  switch  is  in  the  “ON”  or
“START” position.
[Vehicles  equipped  with  keyless  operation
system]
The operation mode is in ON.

WARNING

To obtain the best results from your pre-
tensioner seat belt, make sure you have
adjusted your seat correctly and wear
your seat belt properly.

CAUTION

Installation of audio equipment or repairs in
the vicinity of the pretensioner seat belts or
floor console must be performed in line with
MITSUBISHI MOTORS guidelines. It is
important to do so because the work could
affect the pretensioner systems.

If you need to scrap the vehicle, please con-
sult  a  MITSUBISHI  MOTORS  Authorized
Service  Point.  It  is  important  to  do  so  be-
cause  unexpected  activation  of  the  preten-
sioner seat belts could cause injuries.

NOTE

The pretensioner seat belts will be activated
if the vehicle suffers a severe impact, even if
the seat belts are not worn.

The  pretensioner  seat  belts  are  designed  to
work  only  once.  After  the  pretensioner  seat
belts  have  been  activated,  we  recommend
you  to  have  them  replaced  by  a
MITSUBISHI  MOTORS  Authorized  Serv-
ice Point.

Child restraint

E00406403552

When  transporting  children  in  your  vehicle,
some type of child restraint system should al-
ways  be  used  according  to  the  size  of  the
child.  This  is  required  by  law  in  most  coun-
tries.
The regulations concerning driving with chil-
dren in the front seat may differ from country
to  country.  You  are  advised  to  comply  with
the relevant regulations.

WARNING

When possible, put children in the rear
seat. Accident statistics indicate that chil-
dren of all sizes and ages are safer when
properly restrained in the rear seat rather
than in the front seat.

Holding a child in your arms is no substi-
tute for a restraint system. Failure to use
a proper restraint system can result in se-
vere or fatal injury to the child.

Each child restraint device or fixing is to
be used only by one child.

WARNING

When  attaching  a  child  restraint  system
to  the  rear  seat,  adjust  the  front  seat  to
prevent the front seatbacks from touching
the child’s feet and child restraint system.
Otherwise, the child could be seriously in-
jured  in  the  event  of  hard  braking  or  a
collision.

Caution for installing the child

restraint on vehicles with a

front passenger airbag

E00406501810

with a front passenger airbag.

WARNING

Extreme Hazard!
NEVER use a rearward facing child re-
straint on a seat protected by an ACTIVE
AIRBAG in front of it, DEATH or SERI-
OUS INJURY to the CHILD can occur.

NOTE

The labels may be in different positions de-
pending on the vehicle model.

Use rearward facing child restraints in the
rear seat or turn off the front passenger’s air-
bag ON-OFF switch. (Club cab and Double
cab, refer to “To turn an airbag off (Club cab

an inflating airbag could kill or cause se-
rious  injuries  to  the  child.  A  rearward
facing  child  restraint  should  be  used  in
the rear seat.

A  FORWARD  FACING  CHILD  RE-
STRAINT should be used in the rear seat
whenever  possible;  if  it  must  be  used  in
the front passenger seat, turn off the front

in your vehicle, follow the instruction given
below.

Instruction:

For  small  infants,  an  infant  carrier
should  be  used.  For  small  children
whose  height  when  seated  allows  the
shoulder  belt  to  lie  in  contact  with  the
face or the throat, a child seat should be
used.

The child restraint system should be ap-
propriate  for  the  child’s  weight  and
height  and  properly  fit  in  the  vehicle.
For  a  higher  degree  of  safety:  THE
CHILD

RESTRAINT

SYSTEM

SHOULD BE INSTALLED IN THE
REAR SEAT.

Before  purchasing  a  child  restraint  sys-
tem, try installing it in the seat to make
sure  there  is  a  good  fit.  Because  of  the
location of the seat belt buckles and the
shape of the seat cushion, it may be dif-
ficult  to  securely  install  some  manufac-
turer’s child restraint systems.
If  the  child  restraint  system  can  be
pulled forward or to either side easily on
the  seat  cushion  after  the  seat  belt  has
been tightened, choose another manufac-
turer’s child restraint system.

WARNING

When  installing  a  child  restraint  system,
refer  to  the  instructions  provided  by  the
manufacturer  of  the  restraint  system.
Failure to do so can result in severe or fa-
tal injury to the child.

After installation, push and pull the child
restraint system back and forth, and side
to  side,  to  see  that  it  is  properly  secured.
If  the  child  restraint  system  is  not  instal-
led  securely,  it  may  cause  injury  to  the
child or other occupants in the case of ac-
cident or sudden stops.

When  the  child  restraint  system  is  not  in
use, keep your child restraint system fixed
firmly or remove it from the vehicle in or-
der  to  prevent  it  from  being  thrown
around  inside  the  vehicle  during  an  acci-
dent.

NOTE

Depending on the seating position in the ve-
hicle and the child restraint system that you
have, the child restraint can be attached us-
ing one of the following two locations:

•

Using the lower anchorage in the rear seat
ONLY if the child restraint has ISOFIX
mountings (Double cab, See page 4-21).

•

Using the seat belt (See page 4-21).
