• No adjustments may be made to the original component parts of the restraint system (belts, seats and theirmountings).For special applications (e.g. fitting child seats) contact your RENAULT Dealer.

• Do not use devices which give any slack in the belts (e.g. clothes pegs, clips, etc.): a seat belt which is worn too looselyrisks causing injury in the event of an accident.

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

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

• The belt should never be twisted.

• Seat belts should be replaced after a serious accident. Likewise, replace your seat belts as soon as they show any signsof wear.

• When refitting the rear seats, take care that the seat belts are correctly positioned so that they can be used correctly.

• If necessary, readjust the position and tightness of the belt.

• Make sure that the tongue is inserted into the appropriate buckle.

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTSThese are:



21

1.27

buckle pretensioners,

lap strap pretensioners,

chest force limiters,

driver and passenger frontairbags.

These systems are designed to actindependently or together when thevehicle is subjected to a frontalimpact.

Depending on the force of theimpact the system may activate:- seat belt locking,- the buckle pretensioner (which is

triggered to take up the seat beltplay),- the lap belt pretensioner to keep

the occupant in their seat, the lowvolume front airbag and the forcelimiters,

- the large volume front airbag.

PretensionersWith the ignition switched on, if there is a severe frontal impact anddepending on the force of theimpact, the system may engage:- piston 1 which immediately

retracts the seat belt,- piston 2 on the front seats.

The pretensioners hold the seat beltagainst the body, holding the

occupant more securely against theseat, thus increasing the seat belt'sefficiency.

• After an accident, havethe entire restraintsystem checked

• No operation whatsoever ispermitted on any part of thesystem (pretensioners, airbags,computers, wiring) and thesystem components must not bereused on any other vehicle,even if identical.

• To avoid premature triggering of the system which may causeinjury, only qualified RENAULTNetwork personnel may work onthe pretensioner and airbag

system.

• Testing of the electric triggersystem may only be carried out

by a specially trained technicianusing special equipment.

• When the vehicle is scrapped,contact your RENAULT Dealerfor disposal of the pretensioner

and airbag gas generators.

The presence of this equipment isindicated by the word “Airbag” onthe steering wheel and thedashboard (airbag zone A) and alabel on the lower part of thewindscreen or on the sun visor.

Each airbag system consists of:- an airbag and gas generator fitted

on the steering wheel for thedriver and in the dashboard for thefront passenger,

- an intelligent computer for bothsystems, which includes an

impact sensor and a monitorcontrolling the electrical triggersystem for the gas generator.

- A single warning light onthe instrument panel.

The airbag system uses theprinciples of pyrotechnics.Therefore, when the airbag inflates,it will generate noise, heat and

smoke upon detonation, this doesnot mean that a fire is about to start.In a situation where an airbag isrequired, it will inflateimmediately and this may causesome minor, superficial grazing tothe skin.

OperationThis system is only operationalwhen the ignition is switched on.

In a severe frontal impact, theairbags inflate rapidly, cushioningthe impact of the driver's head andchest against the steering wheel andthe front passenger's head againstthe dashboard. The airbags thendeflate immediately so that the

passengers are not in any wayhindered from leaving the vehicle.

Special feature of the frontairbagThe front airbag has two inflationvolumes and includes an internalventilation system to prevent burnswhich could be caused by escapinggases:- “small volume” airbag, this is the

first stage of operation,- “large volume” airbag, the airbag

seams rip so that a larger volumeof gas is released into the bag (forthe most severe impacts).

Deployment of the airbag ismodified according to the severityof the impact and the position of thedriver's seat on its runners.

Operating faultsWarning light 1 lights up on theinstrument panel when the ignitionis turned on and then goes out aftera few seconds.

If it does not light up when theignition is switched on, or comes onwhen the engine is running, there isa fault in the system.

Consult your RENAULT Dealer as

soon as possible. Your protectionwill be reduced until this fault isrectified.

the risk of serious injuries caused by items which may be dislodged when the airbag inflates.

Warnings concerning the driver’s airbag• Do not modify the steering wheel or the steering wheel cushion.

• Do not cover the steering wheel cushion.

• Do not attach any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the steering wheel cushion.• The steering wheel must not be removed (except by qualified personnel from the RENAULT Network).

• When driving, do not sit too close to the steering wheel. Sit with your arms slightly bent (see the information onAdjusting your driving position in Section 1). This will allow sufficient space for the airbag to deploy correctly and befully effective.

Warnings concerning the passenger airbag• Do not attach or glue any objects (badge, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the dashboard in the proximity of the airbag

housing.• Nothing should be placed between the dashboard and the passenger (pet, umbrella, walking stick, parcels, etc.).

• The passenger must not put his or her feet on the dashboard or seat as there is a risk that serious injuries may besustained. As a general rule, keep all parts of your body (knees, hands, head, etc.) well away from the dashboard.

• The passenger airbags should be reactivated as soon as the child seat is removed, to ensure the protection of the frontpassenger in the event of an impact.

A REAR-FACING CHILD/BABY SEAT MUST NOT BE FITTED TO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT UNLESS THEADDITIONAL RESTRAINT SYSTEMS, I.E. THE PASSENGER AIRBAG, ARE DEACTIVATED.

These airbags are fitted to each of the front seats and is inflated at thesides of the seats (door side) toprotect theoccupants in the event of a severe side impact.

These airbags operate

through slits in the front backrests (door side):never insert any objects

in these slits.

These are airbags fitted along thetop of the side of the vehicle andwhich are triggered along the frontand rear side windows to protectthe passengers in the event of asevere side impact.

A marking on the windscreeninforms you of the presence of additional means of restraint(airbags, pretensioners, etc.) inthe passenger compartment.

Warnings concerning theside airbag• Fitting seat covers: seats

equipped with an airbagrequire covers specificallydesigned for your vehicle.Contact your RENAULT Dealerto find out if these covers may bepurchased from Renault outlets.The use of any covers other thanthose designed for your vehicle(and including those designedfor another vehicle) may affectthe operation of the airbags andreduce your protection.

• Do not place any accessories,

objects or even pets between theseatback, the door and theinternal fittings. Do not cover theseatback with any items such asclothes or accessories. This mayprevent the airbag fromoperating correctly or causeinjury when the airbag isdeployed.

• No work or modificationwhatsoever may be carried outon the internal fittings, except byqualified RENAULT Networkpersonnel.

ADDITIONAL MEANS OF RESTRAINTAll the warnings below are given so that, if the airbag is activated, it is not obstructed in any way and also to prevent therisk of serious injuries caused by items which may be dislodged when the airbag inflates.



1.33

j y t y g t g t

The airbag is designed to complement the action of the seat belt. 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 seat belts are not worn, theoccupants of the vehicle are exposed to the risk of serious injury in the event of an accident. The risk of minor

superficial injuries occurring when the airbag is deployed may also increase, although such minor injuries arealways possible with airbags.

If the vehicle should overturn or in the event of a rear impact, however severe, the pretensioners and airbags are notalways triggered. These systems may, however, be triggered by shocks to the vehicle underbody, e.g. from pavements,potholes, stones, etc.

• No operations or modifications whatsoever are permitted on any part of the airbag system (electronic unit, wiring,etc.) (such work must be carried out by qualified Renault Network personnel).

• To ensure that the system is in good working order and to avoid accidental 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).

CHILD SAFETYIn all countries there are regulationsgoverning the use of restraints for Remember that a collision at

governing the use of restraints forchildren and babies.

In Europe children under 10 yearsof age(1) must be seated in anapproved safety device which issuitable for the weight and size of

the child.The driver is responsible forensuring that this equipment isused correctly.

Child restraints for which typeapproval was obtained after January1992 offer a level of safety muchgreater than for restraints with typeapproval before that date.

It is therefore advisable to select achild restraint that complies withEuropean regulation ECE 44.

Restraints that comply with thislegislation must be marked with anorange label bearing the letter Efollowed by a number (whichstands for the country where it istype approved) and the year inwhich the type approval was

granted.Refer to the Child safety equipment

booklet available from the RenaultNetwork to choose the seat suited toyour child and recommended foryour vehicle.

Remember that a collision at31 mph (50 km/h) is the same asfalling a distance of 10 metres.Expressed in other terms,transporting a child without arestraint is the equivalent of allowing him or her to play on a

fourth-floor balcony withoutrailings.

Under no circumstancesshould babies or children

be allowed to travel sittingon the knees of another

passenger in the vehicle.

If a frontal impact occurs at 30 mph(50 km/h) a child weighing 30 kgwill be transformed into a missileequivalent to one tonne: you willfind it impossible to hold the child,even if you yourself are wearing a

belt.

It is particularly dangerous to putthe belt round your child when heor she is sitting on your lap. Neveruse the belt for more than oneperson at the same time.

- If it lights up constantly, contactyour RENAULT Dealer as soon aspossible,

- If it flashes, reduce the enginespeed until the light stopsflashing. Consult your RENAULTDealer as soon as possible.

Driving• Drive carefully for the first few

miles until the engine reaches itsnormal operating temperature,rather than let it warm up whilethe vehicle is stationary.

• Speed is expensive.

• “Sporty” driving uses a lot of fuel:drive with a “light right foot”.

Always use the highest gear

possible without labouring theengine.

On versions with automaticgearboxes, it is preferable to keepthe gear lever in position D.

• Do not try to maintain the samespeed up a hill, accelerate nomore than you would on the level.Keep your foot in the sameposition on the accelerator pedal.

• Double declutching andaccelerating before switching off are superfluous actions inmodern vehicles.

• Bad weather, flooded roadsDo not drive throughfloods if the depth of water is above the loweredge of the wheel rims.

ADVICE ON FUEL ECONOMY AND DRIVING (continued)

• It is normal to observe an increasein fuel consumption (especiallyin urban conditions) when airconditioning is used on vehiclesequipped with air conditioning.Switch off the air conditioningwhen it is not required onvehicles fitted with manual airconditioning



2.17

General hints• Electricity is “fuel”; switch off all

the electrical components whichare not really needed. However(safety first), keep your lights onwhen the visibility is bad (“seeand be seen”).

• Use the air vents. Driving with thewindows open at 60 mph(100 km/h) will increase fuelconsumption by +4%.

• When towing a caravan, fit a winddeflector and adjust it carefully.

conditioning.

Advice for reducing consumptionand therefore helping to preservethe environment:Drive with the vents open and thewindows closed.

If the vehicle has been parked inthe sun, open the doors for a fewmoments to let the hot air escape before starting the engine.

• Never fill the fuel tank right to the brim to avoid overflow.

• Do not leave an empty roof rackfitted to the vehicle.

• It is better to fit a trailer for bulkyobjects.

• Avoid using the vehicle for“door-to-door” calls, (short

journeys with long waits in between) because the enginenever reaches its normaloperating temperature.

Tyres• Underinflation increases fuel

consumption.

• The use of non-recommended tyres

can increase fuel consumption.

Thus, it can, under nocircumstances, replace thevigilance or responsibility of thedriver when manoeuvring thevehicle (the driver must always be ready for sudden incidentswhich may occur when driving).

Operating principleA sensor in the steering wheel

detects the direction selected by thedriver.

Other sensors throughout thevehicle measure the actualdirection.

The system compares the directionselected by the driver and the actualdirection of the vehicle and correctsthis as necessary by applying the brakes selectively and/or acting on

ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM: ABSUnder heavy braking, the systemhas two principal aims, to reducethe stopping distance and keep yourvehicle under control. However,there is a risk that roadholding anddirectional control may be lost andthe wheels may lock under braking,depending on the nature of theground, weather conditions andyour reactions. The Anti-lock

This system also allows you tooptimise stopping distances whenthe adhesion of one or more wheels becomes hazardous (wet roads,slippery or varying road surfaces).

Although this system allows you tomake maximum use of stoppingdistances, even with the ABS youstill have to take account of the

You will feel pulsing through the brake pedal when the system has been activated. These tangible signswill warn you that the adhesion between the tyres and the groundhas reached its limit and enable youto adapt your driving style to suitthe road conditions.



2.29

yBraking System (ABS) has beendesigned to combat this danger.

The safety enhancement is that the brake control system prevents thewheels from locking, even if the brakes are applied too sharply, andallows the vehicle to be steered andthus its direction to be controlled.Under these circumstances it is

quite possible for the driver to steerthe vehicle and to avoid an obstaclewhilst at the same time applying the brake.

on the instrument panel.

This indicates that both the brakingsystem and the ABS system arefaulty. Your braking systems areonly partially operational.However, it is dangerous to brakesuddenly and it is essential to stopimmediately, as soon as trafficconditions allow. Call a RENAULTDealer.

The braking modulation provided by the ABS is independent of theeffort applied to the brake pedal. In

an emergency, apply strong andcontinuous pressure to the brakepedal There is no need to pump itrepeatedly.

BRAKE ASSISTThis system is complementary toABS and helps reduce vehiclestopping distances.

Operating principleThe system detects an emergency braking situation. If this happens, braking assistance reaches

Maintaining the tyresThe tyres must be in good conditionand the tread form must have

When the tyre tread has beeneroded to the level of the warning

strips, they become visible 2: it isthen necessary to replace your tyres because the read rubber is no longer,1.6 mm deep and this causes poorroad holding on wet roads.

An overloaded vehicle, longjourneys by motorway, particularlyin very hot weather, or continualdriving on poorly surfaced minorroads will lead to more rapid tyre

wear and affect safety.

(1) Towing weight(Towing a caravan, boat, etc.)

- It is important to comply with the towing weights, governed by local legislation in each country and, in particular, laiddown in the road traffic regulations. Contact your RENAULT Dealer about any towing equipment. Under no

circumstances may the gross train weight (= maximum permissible all-up weight and weight towed) be exceeded.- If your vehicle is already at full load (max. permissible all-up weight), the maximum speed must be limited to 60 mph(100 km/h) and the tyre pressures increased by 0.2 bar (3 psi.).

- The engine output and climbing capability are reduced with altitude. We recommend that the maximum load be reduced by 10% at an altitude of 1000 metres and by an additional 10% for each 1000 metres thereafter.
