CAUTION
For some type of child restraint, the
locking clip (A) should be used to
help avoid personal injury during a
collision or sudden manoeuvre.
It must be fitted and used in accor-
dance with the child restraint
manufacturer’s instructions.
The locking clip must be removed
when the child restraint is removed.
Older children
EG20F-Aa
Children who have outgrown the child re-
straint system should be seated in the rear
seat and wear a combination lap shoulder
belt.
The lap belt should be snug and positioned
low on the abdomen so that it is below the
top of the hip-bone. Otherwise, the belt could
intrude into the child’s abdomen during an
accident and cause injury.
CAUTION
(1) Children who are not buckled up
can be thrown out of the vehicle
in an accident.
(2) Children who are not buckled up
can strike other people.
(3) A child should never be left unat-
tended in your vehicle. When you
leave the vehicle, take the
children with you.
Pregnant women restraint
EG28C - C
WARNING
MITSUBISHI MOTOR SALES Europe
B.V. recommends that pregnant
women use the available seat belts.
This will reduce the likelihood of in-
jury to both the woman and the un-
born child. The lap belt should be
worn across the thighs and as snug
against the hips as possible, but not
across the waist. The woman’s doctor
should be consulted if there are any
questions.
Seat belt inspection
EG28D-E
(1) Check the belts for cuts, worn or frayed
webbing and for cracked or deformed
metallic parts. Replace the belt assem-
bly if defective.
(2) A dirty belt should be cleaned with neu-
tral detergent in warm water. After rins-
ing in water, let it dry in the shade. Do not
attempt to bleach or re-dye the belts be-
cause this affects their characteristics.
