The description of the models given in this handbook is based on the technical specifications known at the date this

document was produced. The handbook covers all equipment (standard or optional) which is available for these

models, but their presence on the vehicle depends on the version, options selected and country of marketing.

FRONT SEATS (continued)

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELT (continued)

All the warnings below are given so that the airbag is not obstructed in any way when it is inflated and also to prevent the risk of serious injuries caused by items which may be dislodged when the airbag inflates.

The airbag is designed to complement the action of the seat belt. Both the airbags and seat belts are integral parts of the same protection system. It is therefore essential to wear the seat belt at all times. If the seat belt is not worn, it exposes the occupants to the risk of serious injury in the event of an accident. It may also increase the risk of minor, superficial injuries occurring when the airbag is deployed, although such minor injuries are always

possible with airbags.

The airbag does not offer protection against minor and moderately serious frontal impacts, side or rear impacts or if the

vehicle turns over.

Airbags for driver and passenger

•No work or modification whatsoever may be performed on the entire airbag system for the driver and passenger (computer, wiring, etc.) except by qualified RENAULT network personnel.

•To ensure that the system is in good working order and to avoid incorrect triggering of the system which may cause injury, only qualified RENAULT network personnel may work on the airbag system.

•As a safety precaution, have the airbag system checked if your vehicle has been involved in an accident, is stolen or broken into.

•When selling or lending the vehicle, inform the user of these points and hand over this handbook with the vehicle.

•When scrapping your vehicle, contact your RENAULT Dealer for disposal of the gas generator(s).

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELT (continued)

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE REAR SEAT BELTS

Force limiter

In the event of a frontal impact above a certain severity, this mechanism is used to limit the force of the belt against the body so that it is at an acceptable level.

Rear side seat belt pretensioners

This system is only operational when the ignition is switched on.

If the vehicle is subjected to a severe impact, a device retracts the seat belt, pulling the seat belt tight against the body and thereby improving its efficiency.

Warning relating to the

service life of airbags and

pretensioners

Pyrotechnic systems for

airbags and pretensioners have a

limited service life: refer to the

servicing booklet for your vehicle

for the replacement frequency.

SEAT BELTS

The following information applies to both the vehicle’s front and rear seat belts:

• No modifications may be made to the component parts of the original restraint systems: seat belts and

their mountings.

Consult your Renault Dealer for special applications (e.g. fitting a child seat).

•Do not use any devices which give any play in the belts (clothes pegs, clips for example).

•Never wear the shoulder strap under your arm or behind your back.

•Never use the same belt for more than one person and never hold a baby or child on your knees with the seat belt around them.

•The seat belt should never be twisted.

•Following a serious accident, replace all the belts which were in use at the time. Likewise, have the belts replaced if they show any signs of wear.

•When refitting the rear bench seat, check that the seat belts are repositioned correctly, to enable them to be used properly.

•If necessary, re-adjust the position and tension of the belt.

CHILD SAFETY (continued)

X : seat not suitable for fitting a child seat for this age range.

U : seat suitable for fitting a belt-fitted child seat classed as universal for this age range, check that it can be fitted.

I: seat equipped with anchoring points for mounting a seat for this age range using Isofix locks, only RENAULT seats are approved.

(1)A child taller than 1.50 m or weighing more than 36 kg can be strapped in the same way as an adult, without a special seat.

(2)Only a rear-facing child seat may be installed in this seat.

(3)Place the back of the child seat against the vehicle seatback, adjust the headrest height or remove it if necessary.

(4) DANGER RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY: CHECK THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG HAS

BEEN DEACTIVATED BEFORE INSTALLING A REAR-FACING CHILD SEAT IN THIS SEAT.

(Refer to the Deactivating the front passenger Airbag information in Section 1 of the basic manual).

CHILD SAFETY (continued)

X : seat not suitable for fitting a child seat for this age range.

I: seat equipped with anchoring points for mounting a seat for this age range using Isofix locks, only RENAULT seats are approved.

(1)A child taller than 1.50 m or weighing more than 36 kg can be strapped in the same way as an adult, without a special seat.

(2) DANGER RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY: CHECK THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG HAS

BEEN DEACTIVATED BEFORE INSTALLING A REAR-FACING CHILD SEAT IN THIS SEAT.

(Refer to the Deactivating the front passenger Airbag information in Section 1 of the basic manual).

DANGER

Since front passenger airbag triggering and the position of a

rear-facing child seat are incompatible, it is not permitted to install

such a seat in this position unless the vehicle is fitted with an airbag

deactivation device. Refer to the information on deactivating the front

passenger airbag. The child may suffer very serious injuries if the airbag

inflates.

Label 4 (on the dashboard) and markings 5 (on the sun visors) remind you of

these instructions.

Fitting a child seat

•Before fitting and using the seat, read the instructions provided carefully;

•Fix the fitting guides 2 on the rings 1 fitted to the rear seats and front passenger seat of the vehicle;

CHILD SAFETY (continued)

CHILD SAFETY

• No modifications may be made to the component parts of the restraint system (belts and seats and their

mountings) fitted originally.

•The fitting instructions provided by the manufacturer of the restraint system should be followed carefully.

•Avoid wearing bulky clothing and do not place any objects between the child and the restraint system.

•The seat belt on the vehicle must be taut so that the child’s seat is held in position securely. Check the tension regularly.

•Never wear the belt under the arm or behind the back.

•The harness or belt should be taut and fitted to suit the child’s stature.

•Never allow your child to stand or kneel on the seat when the vehicle is moving.

•Check that the child is in the correct position for the entire journey, particularly when he or she is asleep.

•Use the seat belts to hold the seat in position, even if it is not occupied. Otherwise, if an accident occurs, it may become dislodged and pose a risk to other vehicle occupants.

•Following a serious accident, have an inspection made of the seat belts and restraint systems fitted at the time.

•Never leave a child unsupervised in a vehicle, even if he or she is in a child seat.

•Activate the rear door locks (if your vehicle is equipped with these).

•Make sure the child does not get out of the vehicle at the side where there is traffic.

•Set your children a good example — always wear your seat belt.
