ANTI-INTRUSION ALARM
This protects the vehicle by performing the following functions:
- volumetric protection of the front passenger compartment using an
ultrasound field;
- protection of the passenger compartment perimeter;
- protection of the rear load area and bonnet;
- monitoring in the event of an attempt tostart the engine withan incorrect ignition key;
- monitoring in the event of alarm power supply cut-off.
Before activating the alarm function
Check that:
- the windows and doors are properly closed;
- there are no passengers, animals or objectsinside the vehicle which could move and set off the alarm. Otherwise, it will be necessary to disable the volumetric protection promptly; refer to the section on disabling the spatial protection.

ANTI-INTRUSION ALARM (continued)
Activating the alarm function
The alarm is set when the doors are locked with the remote control unit.
This is signalled by the hazard warning lights flashing twice
When the alarm function is activated, any detection leads to the alarm being triggered and the hazard warning lights flashing for around 25 seconds.
After approximately 5 seconds, if the detection continues, the system will start once more for approximately 25 seconds and then again (8 to 10 times, depending on the type of detection).
Beyond that, there is no more monitoring until the doors are next unlocked/locked.
Deactivating the alarm function
Even when triggered, the alarm stops:
- when the doors are unlocked with the remote control unit;
- when the vehicle ignition is switched on.
Deactivation is indicated by the hazard warning lights flashing once.
The absence of flashing hazard warning lights when the alarm is set
indicates that a door or the bonnet is open or incorrectly closed: check. If this is not the case, contact your RENAULT Dealer.
1.14
Failure of the hazard warning lights to flash when the alarm is
deactivated indicates that the alarm was triggered during your absence.
Opening the doors with the key doesnot stop the alarm; it must be stopped using the remote control unit or
by switching on the ignition.
ENGINE IMMOBILISER

Immobiliser warning light
This prevents the vehicle being driven by anyone not in possession of the vehicle's coded ignition key.
Any work on or modification to the engine immobiliser
system (computers, wiring, etc.) may be dangerous. Work m us t be c arr ied ou t by qualified RENAULT network personnel.
Operating principle
The vehicle is automatically protected for a few seconds after the key is removed from the ignition.
If the vehicle does not recognise the ignition key code, warning light 1 will flash continuously and the engine cannot be started.
• System operation indicator light
When the ignition is switched on, warning light 1 comes on for approximately three seconds and then goes out. The vehicle has recognised the code. You can then start the engine.
• Vehicle protection indicator light
A few seconds after the ignition has been switched off, indicator light 1 will flash continuously.
The vehicle will not be protected until the key has been takenout of the ignition.
• Operating fault warning light
After the ignition has been switched on, if warning light 1 remains continuously lit or continues to flash, this indicates an operating fault in the system.
In all cases,itisessential to contact a RENAULT Dealer. Only RENAULT Dealers are qualified to repair the engine immobiliser.
If the coded ignition key is faulty, use the second key (supplied with the vehicle). If you do not have access to this, it is essential to contact a RENAULT Dealer. Only RENAULT Dealers are authorised to repair the engine immobiliser system.

FRONT 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 starting:
- first ensure that your driving position is correct,
- then adjust your seat belt to provide the maximum possible protection.
Incorrectly adjusted seat belts may cause injuries in the event of an accident.
Even pregnant women should wear a seat belt. In this case, 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.
•Adjust the distance between the seat and the pedals.
Your seat should be as far back as possible while still allowing you to fully depress the clutch pedal. The seatback should be adjusted so that your arms are slightly bent when you hold the steering wheel.
•Adjust the position of your headrest.
For safety reasons, the top of your head should be inline with the top of the headrest.
•Adjusttheheightoftheseat.
This adjustment allows you to select the seat position which offers you the best possible view.

Rear side seat belts
(Vehicles fitted with rear bench seats)
The side seat belts are fitted with specific tongues so that it is not possible to lock the belt into the wrong housing: for the first housing use belt 2; for the second housing use belt 1.
Rear seat belts with inertia reel
The belts are fastened, unfastened and adjusted in the same way as the front belts.
Slowly unwind the belt. Click the tongue into the buckle.
Make sure that the rear bench seat is locked in position correctly so that
the seat belts will operate efficiently. Refer to the information on the rear bench seat in section 3.
1.21
SEAT BELTS
The following information applies to both the vehicle's front and rear seat belts.
• No adjustments should be made to the original component parts of the restraint system (belts, seats and their mountings).
For special cases (e.g. fitting child seats) contact your RENAULT Dealer.
• Do not use devices which allow any play in the belts (e.g. clothes pegs, clips, etc.): a seat belt which is worn too loosely risks causing injuries in the event of an accident.
• 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 lap with your seat belt
around them.
• The belt should never be twisted.
• Seat belts should be replaced after a serious accident. Always 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 while travelling.
1.22
METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS
Depending on the model, these include:
■ Pretensioners
(described below).
■ Driver and front passenger
airbags (described on the following pages).
The passenger airbagprotects the front passenger(s) (according to whether there is a conventional seat or a bench seat in the front).
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 will inflate in the most severe cases.

Pretensioners
Withthe ignition on, if the vehicle is subjected to a severe frontal impact, piston 1 immediately retracts the seat belt buckle, pulling the seat belt against the body and thereby increasing its efficiency.

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (continued)
Driver and passenger airbags
An airbag may be provided for both the driver and the front passenger.
Airbag inscriptions on the steering wheel and dashboard together with a label on the lower part of the windscreen indicate that the vehicleisequippedwithanairbag.
The passenger airbagprotects the front passenger(s) (according to whether there is a conventional seat or a bench seat in the front).
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.

This system is only operational when the ignition is switched on.
If a severe frontal impact occurs, the airbag(s) inflate(s) rapidly, 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 does not light up when the ignition is switched on, or comes on when the engine is running, there is a fault in the system.
Consult your RENAULT Dealer as soon as possible. Your protection will be reduced until this fault is rectified.
Theairbagsystemusesthe principles of pyrotechnics. 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.
