WARNING
•
Do not drive and/or ride in the vehicle with
the seatback reclined. This can be dangerous. The shoulder belt will not be properly
against the body. In an accident, you and your
passengers could be thrown into the shoulder belt and receive neck or other serious
injuries. You and your passengers could also
slide under the lap belt and receive serious
injuries.
•
For the most effective protection while the
vehicle is in motion, the seatback should be
upright. Always sit well back and upright in
the seat and adjust the seat properly. (See
“Manual seat adjustment (where fitted)” later
in this section.)
•
To help avoid risk of injury or death through
unintended operation of the vehicle and/or its
systems, do not leave children, people who
require the assistance of others, or pets unat-
tended in your vehicle. Additionally, the temperature inside aclosed vehicle on awarm
day can quickly become high enough to cause
asignificant risk of injury or death to people
and pets.
CAUTION
When adjusting the seat positions, be sure not to
contact any moving parts to avoid possible injuries and/or damages.
FRONT SEATS
WARNING
Do not adjust the driver’s seat while driving so
that full attention may be given to vehicle operation.
Manual seat adjustment (where fitted)
WARNING
After adjusting aseat, gently shake the seat to
confirm that the seat is locked securely. If the
seat is not locked securely, it may move suddenly and could cause the loss of control of the
vehicle.

2. Slide the seat to the desired position.
3. Release the adjusting lever to lock the seat in
position.
Reclining:
CAUTION
When moving the seats forward or backward, or
returning arear-reclined seatback to its upright
position, make sure you hold onto the seatback
while operating. If the seatback is not held, the
seat or seatback will move suddenly and could
cause injury.
1. Pull up the adjusting lever
➁
.
2. Tilt the seatback to the desired position.
3. Release the adjusting lever to lock the seatback
in position.
The reclining feature allows the adjustment of the
seatback for occupants of different sizes to help
obtain the proper seat belt fit. (See “Fastening seat
belts” later in this section.)
The seatback may be reclined to allow occupants to
rest when the vehicle is parked.
Seat lifter (where fitted):
Pull up or push down the adjusting lever
➂
to adjust the seat height until the desired position is
achieved.
Power seat adjustment (where fitted)
WARNING
Never leave children or adults who would normally require the support of others alone in the
vehicle. Pets should not be left alone either. They
could unknowingly activate switches or controls,
or move the vehicle, and inadvertently become
involved in aserious accident and injure themselves.
Operating tips:
•
The power seat motor has an auto-reset overload protection circuit. If the motor stops during
the seat adjustment, wait 30 seconds, then reactivate the switch.
•
To avoid discharge of the battery, do not operate
the power seats for along period of time when
the engine is not running.

PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT
USAGE
If you are wearing the seat belt properly adjusted
and sitting upright and well back in the seat, chances
of being injured or killed in an accident and/or the
severity of injury may be greatly reduced. RENAULT
strongly encourages you and all of your passengers
to buckle up every time you drive, even if your seating position includes the supplemental air bag systems.

SEAT BELTS
Safety —seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system 1-9
WARNING
•
Seat belts are designed to bear upon the bony
structure of the body, and should be worn low
across the front of the pelvis or the pelvis,
chest and shoulders, as applicable; wearing
the lap section of the belt across the abdominal area must be avoided. Serious injury may
occur if aseat belt is not worn properly.
•
Position the lap belt as low and snug as possible around the hips, not the waist. Alap belt
worn too high could increase the risk of internal injuries in an accident.
•
Do not allow more than one person to use the
same seat belt. Each belt assembly must only
be used by one occupant; it is dangerous to
put abelt around achild being carried on the
occupant’s lap.
•
Never carry more people in the vehicle than
there are seat belts.
•
Never wear seat belts inside out. Belts should
not be worn with straps twisted. Doing so may
reduce their effectiveness.
•
Seat belts should be adjusted as firmly as
possible, consistent with comfort, to provide
the protection for which they have been designed. Aslack belt will greatly reduce the
protection afforded to the wearer.
•
Every person who drives or rides in this vehicle should use aseat belt at all times. Children should be in the rear seats and in an
appropriate restraint.
•
Do not put the belt behind your back or under
your arm. Always route the shoulder belt over
your shoulder and across your chest. The belt
should be away from your face and neck, but
not falling off your shoulder. Serious injury
may occur if aseat belt is not worn properly.
•
No modifications or additions should be made
by the user which will either prevent the seat
belt adjusting devices from operating to remove slack, or prevent the seat belt assembly
from being adjusted to remove slack.
•
Care should be taken to avoid contamination
of the webbing with polishes, oils and chemicals, and particularly battery acid. Cleaning
may safely be carried out using mild soap and
water. The belt should be replaced if webbing
becomes frayed, contaminated or damaged.
•
It is essential to replace the entire assembly
after it has been worn in asevere impact even
if damage to the assembly is not obvious.
•
All seat belt assemblies including retractors
and attaching hardware should be inspected
after any collision by an approved dealer or
qualified workshop. RENAULT recommends
that all seat belt assemblies in use during a
collision be replaced unless the collision was
minor and the belts show no damage and continue to operate properly. Seat belt assemblies not in use during acollision should also
be inspected and, when necessary, replaced
if either damage or improper operation is
noted.
•
Once the pre-tensioner seat belt (where fitted) has activated, it cannot be reused. It must
be replaced together with the retractor. Contact an approved dealer or qualified workshop.

Removal and installation of the pre-tensioner
seat belt system (where fitted) components
should be done by an approved dealer or
qualified workshop.
CHILD SAFETY
WARNING
•
Infants and children need special protection.
The vehicle’s seat belts may not fit them properly. The shoulder belt may come too close to
the face or neck. The lap belt may not fit over
their small hipbones. In an accident, an improperly fitted seat belt could cause serious
or fatal injury.
•
Always use an appropriate child restraint system.
Children need adults to help protect them. They
need to be properly restrained. The proper restraint
depends on the child’s size.
Infants and small children
RENAULT recommends that infants and small children be seated in achild restraint system. You
should choose achild restraint system that fits your
vehicle and the child, and always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for installation and use.
Large children
WARNING
•
Never allow children to stand or kneel on any
seats.
•
Never allow children in the luggage areas
while the vehicle is moving. Achild could be
seriously injured in an accident or sudden
stop.
Children who are too large for achild restraint system should be seated and restrained by the seat
belts that are provided.
If the child’s seating position has ashoulder belt that
fits close to the face or neck, the use of abooster
seat (commercially available) may help overcome
this. The booster seat should raise the child so that
the shoulder belt is properly positioned across the
top, middle portion of the shoulder and the lap belt
is low on the hips. The booster seat should also fit
the vehicle seat. Once the child has grown so that
the shoulder belt is no longer on or near the face or
neck of the child, use the shoulder belt without the
booster seat. In addition, there are many types of
child restraint systems available for larger children
that should be used for maximum protection.
PREGNANT WOMEN
RENAULT recommends that pregnant women use
seat belts. The seat belt should be worn snug, and
always position the lap belt as low as possible
around the hips, not the waist. Place the shoulder
belt over your shoulder and across your chest. Never
run the lap/shoulder belt over your abdominal area.
Contact your doctor for specific recommendations.
INJURED PERSONS
RENAULT recommends that injured persons use
seat belts. Contact your doctor for specific recommendations.
CENTRE MARK ON SEAT BELTS
(where fitted)
Selecting correct set of seat belts
The centre seat belt buckle (and/or tongue, where
fitted) is identified by the <CENTER> mark. The
centre seat belt tongue can be fastened only into the
centre seat belt buckle.

THREE-POINT TYPE SEAT BELTS
Fastening seat belts
WARNING
The seatback should not be in areclined position
any more than needed for comfort. Seat belts are
most effective when the passenger sits well back
and straight up in the seat.
1. Adjust the seat. (See “Manual seat adjustment
(where fitted)” earlier in this section.)
2. Slowly pull the seat belt out of the retractor and
insert the tongue into the buckle until you hear
and feel the latch engage.
•
The retractor is designed to lock during a
sudden stop or on impact. Aslow pulling
motion permits the seat belt to move, and
allows you some freedom of movement in
the seat.
•
If the seat belt cannot be pulled from its
fully retracted position, firmly pull the belt
and release it. Then smoothly pull the belt
out of the retractor.
3. Position the lap belt portion low and snug on the
hips as shown.
4. Pull the shoulder belt portion toward the retractor to take up extra slack. Be sure the shoulder
belt is routed over your shoulder and is snug
across your chest.
Shoulder belt height adjustment (for
front seats)
WARNING
•
The shoulder belt anchor height should be
adjusted to the position best for you. Failure
to do so may reduce the effectiveness of the
entire restraint system and increase the
chance or severity of injury in an accident.
•
The shoulder belt should rest on the middle
of the shoulder. It must not rest against the
neck.
•
Be sure that the seat belt is not twisted in any
way.
•
Be sure that the shoulder belt anchor is secured by trying to move the shoulder belt anchor up and down after adjustment.
To adjust, pull on the release button
