Driver's responsibility

If there is a child (or a pet) in the vehicle, never leave it unattended

with the key in the ignition. With the key in the ignition the child

could start the engine or operate electrical equipment such as the

electric windows and there is a riskthat he or she may be injured (by

trapping his or her neck, arm, hand, etc.). Risk of serious injury.

If you lose your keys or remote control unit, or need another set,

contact your RENAULT Dealer.

- To replace a remote control, it will

be necessary to take the vehicle to

your RENAULT Dealer because

both the vehicle and the remote

control are needed to initialise the system.

- It is not possible to use more than

two remote control units for one vehicle.

- Make sure that the batteries are

always in good condition; they

have a service life of approximately two years.

1.02

RADIO FREQUENCY REMOTE CONTROL UNIT (continued)

Locking/unlocking the doors

Doors are locked and unlocked using remote control unit 2.

It is supplied with power by a battery which must be replaced when battery warning light 3 no longer lights up. (Refer to the information on Locking remote control: batteries).

Press the remote control for approximately one second to lock or unlock the doors. (Indicator light 3 will come on.)

-The hazard warning lights flash twice to indicate that the doors have been locked.

Note: depending on the vehicle, if a door or the boot is open or not properly closed, the hazard warning lights will not flash.

-The hazard warning lights flash once to indicate that the doors have been unlocked.

The remote control unit

operating range

This varies according to the

environment: therefore take care

when handling the remote control

that you do not inadvertently lock or unlock the doors.

Note: on certain vehicles, if a door is

not opened within approximately

30 seconds of the doors being

unlocked with the remote control,

the doors will lock again automatically.

Interference

Interference by factors in the

immediate vicinity (external

installations or the use of

equipment operating on the same

frequency as the remote control)

may affect the operation of the

remote control unit.

1.03

OPENING THE DOORS

Opening the doors from inside the vehicle

Pull handle 4.

Lights on warning buzzer

If you have left the lights switched on after switching off the ignition, a warning buzzer will sound when a door is opened to warn you that the lights are still on (risk of battery discharge etc.).

Childproof locks

These make it impossible for the

rear doors to be opened from the

inside. Move lever 5 on each door and check from the inside that both

doors are securely locked.

1.04

LOCKING THE DOORS

2

Manual locking

Front: use the key if outside or, if inside, press down knob 1 when the door is closed.

Rear: press down knob 1 in each door.

Electric central locking

This enables the four doors and the boot to be locked or unlocked simultaneously.

Press the red spot on the switch 2 to lock the doors.

The front door mechanism cannot be locked if the door is open.

If you decide to keep the

doors locked when you are

driving, remember that it

may be more difficult for

those assisting you to gain access to

your vehicle in the event of an

emergency.

If you decide to keep the

doors locked when you

are driving, remember

that it may be more

difficult for those assisting you

to gain access to your vehicle in

the event of an emergency.

Operating principle

When the vehicle moves off, the system locks the doors automatically as soon as you reach a speed of approximately 4 mph (7 km/h).

The door is unlocked:

-by opening a front door.

Note: If a rear door is opened, it

will automatically be locked again when the vehicle reaches a speed of approximately 4 mph (7 km/h).

-by pressing the door unlocking button 1.

1.06

ENGINE IMMOBILISER

This prevents the vehicle being driven by anyone not in possession of the vehicle's coded ignition key.

Operating principle

The vehicle is automatically protected a few seconds after the key is removed from the ignition.

If the vehicle does not recognise the ignition key code, indicator light 1 will flash continuously and the engine cannot be started.

Any work or

modification to the

engine immobiliser

(computer, wiring, etc.)

may be dangerous. It must be

carried out by trained RENAULT

network personnel.

1

Indicator light

System operational indicator light

When the ignition is switched on, indicator light 1 comes on for approximately three seconds and then goes out. The vehicle has recognised the code. You may start the engine.

Vehicle protection indicator light

A few seconds after the ignition has

been switched off, indicator light 1

will flash constantly.

The vehicle will not be protected until the key has been taken out of

the ignition.

Operating fault warning light

After the ignition has been switched

on, if warning light 1 continues to

flash or remains continuously lit,

this indicates a system operating

fault.

In all cases, it is essential to contact a RENAULT Dealer, who alone is

qualified to repair the engine

immobiliser.

If the coded ignition key is faulty,

use the second key (supplied with

the vehicle).

1.07

HEADRESTS

1

2

To adjust the height

Press tab 1 and simultaneously slide the headrest to the required position.

To remove the headrest

Press the headrest guide tabs 1 and 2.

To refit the headrest

Insert the rods into the holes, with the notches facing forwards, and lower the headrest to the desired height.

Storage position

When the headrest is fully lowered, it is in the storage position: do not use this position when someone is sitting in the rear seats.

The headrest is a safety

component. Ensure that

it is fitted and in the

correct position: the top

of your head should be in line

with the top of the headrest.

1.08

FRONT SEATS

1

To move a seat forwards or backwards

Lift bar 1 or lever 3 to unlock the seat.

Once in the desired position, release the lever or bar and check that it is correctly locked.

3

To raise or lower the driver's seat

Move lever 2.

To tilt the seatback

Turn the wheel 4 and tilt the seatback to the desired position.

We would advise you not to

recline the seatbacks too far

to ensure that the

effectiveness of the seat

belts is not reduced.

Make sure the seatback is locked in

place correctly.

Nothing should be placed on the

floor (area in front of driver) as

these objects may slide under the

pedals during braking manoeuvres,

thus obstructing their use.

1.09

SEAT BELTS

Always wear your seat belt when travelling in your vehicle. You must also comply with the legislation of the particular country you are in.

Before driving off:

- first ensure that your driving position is correct

- then adjust your seat belt to provide maximum protection.

Incorrectly adjusted seat

belts may cause injuries

in the event of an

accident.

Even pregnant women should

wear a seat belt. In this

eventuality, ensure that the lap

belt is not exerting too much

pressure on the abdomen but do

not allow any slack.

Adjusting your driving position

-Sit well back in your seat (having removed your coat or jacket).

This is essential to ensure your back is positioned correctly.

-Adjusting the distance between the seat and the pedals.

Your seat should be as far back as possible while still allowing you to be able to fully depress the clutch pedal. The seatback should be adjusted so that your arms are slightly bent when you hold the steering wheel.

-Adjusting the position of your headrest.

For safety reasons, the top of your head should be in line with the top of the headrest.

-Adjusting the height of the seat.

This adjustment allows you to select the seat position which offers you the best possible vision.

-Adjust the position of the steering wheel.

1

2

Adjusting the seat belts

Sit with your back firmly against the seatback.

Shoulder strap 1 should be as close to the base of your neck as possible but not on it.

The lap strap 2 should be worn flat over your thighs and against your pelvis.

The seat belt should be worn as close to your body as possible; avoid wearing clothes that are too thick, or holding any objects that could obstruct the seat belt, etc.

Adjusting the front seat belt shoulder strap height

Press button 3 to select the position you require so that shoulder strap 1 is worn as described above.

Make sure that the seat belt is locked in position correctly after you have adjusted it.

To fasten

Unwind the belt slowly and smoothly and ensure that tongue 4 locks into buckle 6 (check that it is locked by pulling tongue 4). If the belt jams, allow it to run back before attempting to unwind it again.

To fasten (continued)

If your belt becomes completely jammed:

-pull the belt slowly but firmly so that just over an inch (3 cm) unwinds;

-then allow the belt to rewind automatically,

-unwind it again,

-if the fault is still present, contact your RENAULT Dealer.

Seat belt reminder warning light

This lights up continuously if the driver's seat belt is not fastened and, when the vehicle reaches a speed of approximately 6 mph (10 km/h), it flashes and a bleep sounds for approximately 90 seconds before the light returns to continuously lit status.

Unlocking

Press button 5 on buckle 6 and the seat belt will be rewound by the inertia reel.

Guide the buckle to help the operation.

1.11

RESTRAINT SYSTEMS IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS

These are:

Seat belt pretensioners

Force limiter.

Airbags for driver and passenger.

These systems are designed to act independently or together when the vehicle is subjected to a frontal impact.

There are three possibilities, depending on the force of the impact:

-protection is provided by the belt only;

-the pretensioner is triggered to rectify belt position and take up play in the belt;

-the airbag and the force limiter are also triggered when there are severe impacts.

Side airbags are provided to activate in the event of severe side impacts.

1

Front seat belt pretensioners

The system is not operational until a few seconds after the ignition has been switched on.

In the event of a significant frontal impact, a computer triggers the seat belt buckle pretensioner igniter and sets a piston 1 in motion. This piston immediately retracts the seat belt buckle, pulling the seat belt against the body and thereby improving its efficiency.

- After an accident, have the entire restraint

system checked

-No operation whatsoever is permitted on any part of the pretensioner system (computer, wiring) and the system components must not be reused on any other vehicle, even if identical.

-Only qualified RENAULT personnel may work on the pretensioner system; otherwise the system may trigger accidentally and cause injury.

-Testing of the electric trigger system may only be carried out by a specially trained technician using special equipment.

-When the vehicle is scrapped, contact your RENAULT Dealer for disposal of the pretensioner and airbag gas generators.

1.12

RESTRAINT SYSTEMS IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (continued)

Force limiter

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

Driver and passenger airbags

These may be provided for the driver and the front passenger.

The presence of this equipment is indicated by the words “Airbag” on the steering wheel and the dashboard, and a label on the base of the windscreen or on the sun visor.

Each airbag system consists of:

- an airbag and gas generator fitted

on the steering wheel for the

driver and in the dashboard for the front passenger;

- a computer for both systems,

which includes the impact sensor

and a monitor controlling the electrical trigger system for the gas

generator;

 

- A single warning light

on

the instrument panel.

 

1.13

RESTRAINT SYSTEMS IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (continued)

Operation

The system waits a few seconds after the ignition has been switched on before becoming operational.

If a severe frontal impact occurs, the

 

airbag(s)

inflate(s)

rapidly,

1

cushioning the impact of the

 

driver's head and chest against the

 

steering wheel and the front

 

passenger's

head against the

 

dashboard. The airbag then deflates immediately so that the passengers are not impeded in any way when they get out of the vehicle.

If it remains lit after the ignition has been switched on again, there is a fault in the system.

It is not recommended to carry a passenger.

Consult your RENAULT Dealer as soon as possible.

Operating faults

Warning light 1 lights up on the instrument panel when the ignition is turned on and then goes out after a few seconds.

If it does not light up when the ignition is turned on, there is a fault in the system.

If it lights up while you are driving, stop at once and switch off the ignition.

The airbag system is based on the pyrotechnic principles. This explains why, when the airbag inflates, it will generate heat, produce smoke (this does not mean that a fire is about to start) and make a noise upon detonation. In a situation where an airbag is required, it will inflate immediately and this may cause some minor, superficial grazing to the skin or other problems.

1.14

RESTRAINT SYSTEMS IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (continued)

A

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.

Warnings concerning the driver’s airbag

- Do not modify the steering wheel or the steering wheel boss.

-Do not cover the steering wheel boss under any circumstances.

-Do not attach any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the steering wheel boss.

-The steering wheel must not be removed (except by qualified personnel from the RENAULT network).

-Do not sit too close to the steering wheel when driving. Sit with your arms slightly bent (see the information on Adjusting your driving position in Section 1). This will allow sufficient space for the airbag to deploy correctly and be fully effective.

Warnings for passenger airbag: location A

-Do not attach or glue any objects (badges, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) onto the front passenger side of the dashboard.

-Do not place anything 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 occur. In general, parts of the body should be kept away from the dashboard (knees, hands, head, etc.)

A REAR FACING CHILD SEAT MUST NOT BE FITTED

TO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT IF THE VEHICLE

IS EQUIPPED WITH A PASSENGER AIRBAG.

1.15

LATERAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT

Side airbags

This airbag may be fitted to the front seats and is deployed at the sides of the seats (door side) to protect the occupants 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.

 

 

 

1.16

 

 

 

Warnings concerning the side airbag

- Fitting seat covers: seats

equipped with an airbag

require covers specifically designed for your vehicle. Contact your RENAULT Dealer

to find out if these covers may be

purchased from RENAULT outlets. The use of any covers other than those designed for

your vehicle (and including those designed for another vehicle) may affect the operation of the airbags

and reduce your protection.

-Do not place any accessories, objects or even pets between the seatback, the door and the internal fittings. Do not cover the seatback with any items such as clothes or accessories. This may prevent the airbag from operating correctly or cause injury when the airbag is deployed.

-No work or modification whatsoever may be carried out on the seat and the internal fittings, except by qualified RENAULT Network personnel.

The airbag system is based on the pyrotechnic principles. This explains why, when the airbag inflates, it will generate heat, produce smoke (this does not mean that a fire is about to start) and make a noise upon detonation. In a situation where an airbag is required, it will inflate immediately and this may cause some minor, superficial grazing to the skin or other problems.

ADDITIONAL METHODS OF RESTRAINT

All of 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 a seat belt at all times. If seat belts are not worn,

the occupants are exposed 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.

If the vehicle should overturn or in the event of a rear impact, however severe, the pretensioners and airbags are not always triggered. Shocks to the underbody of the vehicle, from pavements, potholes, stones etc. can all trigger these systems.

Driver's and passenger airbags

-No work or modification whatsoever may be carried out on any part of the driver or passenger airbag system (airbags, pretensioners, electronic unit, wiring etc.), except 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, or 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).

1.19

SEAT BELTS

The following information applies to both the vehicle's front and rear seat belts.

- No adjustments may be made to the original component parts of the restraint system (belts, seats and their

mountings).

Contact your RENAULT Dealer for special operations (e.g. fitting child seats).

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

-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 belt around 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 signs of wear.

-When refitting the rear bench seat, take care that the seat belts are correctly positioned so that they can be used properly.

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

1.20

CHILD SAFETY

In all countries there are regulations

governing the use of restraints for

children and babies.

In Europe children under 10 years

of age(1) must be seated in an

approved safety device which is

suitable for their weight and size.

The driver is responsible for

ensuring that this equipment is

used correctly.

Child restraints for which type

approval was obtained after January

1992 offer a level of safety much

greater than for restraints with type

approval before that date.

It is therefore advisable to select a

child restraint that complies with

European regulation ECE 44.

Restraints that comply with this

legislation must be marked with an

orange label bearing the letter E

followed by a number (which

stands for the country where it is

type approved) and the year in

which the type approval was

granted.

Refer to the “Child safety equipment” booklet available from the RENAULT Network to choose the seat suited to your child and recommended for your vehicle.

(1) You must always comply with the laws of the country in which you are travelling. They may be different to the guidelines in this handbook.

Remember that a collision at 30 mph (50 km/h) is the same as falling a distance of 10 metres. Expressed in other terms, transporting a child without a restraint is the equivalent of allowing him or her to play on a fourth-floor balcony without railings.

Under no circumstances

should babies or children

be allowed to travel sitting

on the knees of another

passenger in the vehicle.

If a frontal impact occurs at 30 mph

(50 km/h) a child weighing 30 kg

will be transformed into a missile

equivalent to one tonne: you will

find it impossible to hold the child, even if you yourself are wearing a belt.

It is particularly dangerous to put

the belt round your child when he

or she is sitting on your lap. Never

use the belt for more than one

person at the same time.

There are some passenger seats in which the installation of child seats is forbidden.

To find the authorised seats and types of child seats that can be installed in each of the authorised seats, refer to the table in the following pages.

Installing a child seat in the rear side seat (if installation is permitted)

-raise the headrest or remove it if necessary,

-position the front seat as recommended on the following page.

(3)A carrycot should be fitted sideways across the vehicle. Position the child with his or her feet nearest the door.

(4)Move the front seat forward as far as possible to fit the child seat, then move it back so that it is as near as possible but not touching. Adjust the headrest, or remove it if necessary.

(5)Position the seatback of the child seat against the vehicle's seatback. Adjust the headrest, or remove it if necessary.

(6)For the child's safety, do not push the front seat more than halfway back on its runners and do not recline the seatback more than 25°.

(7)A child over 10 years of age, weighing more than 36 kg or taller than 1.36 m can be strapped directly into the seat like an adult.
