SEAT BELTS (1/3) 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 adjust your driving position, then ask all occupants to adjust their seat belts to ensure optimum protection. Incorrectly adjusted or twisted seat belts may cause injuries in the event of an accident. Use one seat belt per person, whether child or adult. Even pregnant women should wear a seat belt.
SEAT BELTS (2/3) ç Front seat belt reminder warning light If this warning light on the instrument panel or the dashboard goes out, the front seat belts have been correctly fastened. 1 Unfastening 3 5 6 5 4 Fastening Unwind the belt slowly and smoothly and ensure that buckle 3 locks into catch 5 (check that it is locked by pulling on buckle 3). If the belt jams, allow it to return slightly before attempting to unwind it again.
SEAT BELTS (3/3) The following information applies to the vehicle’s front and rear seat belts. – No modification may be made to the component parts of the originally fitted restraint system: belts, seats and their mountings. For special operations (e.g. fitting child seats), contact an authorised dealer. – Do not use devices which allow any slack in the belts (e.g. clothes pegs, clips, etc.): a seat belt which is worn too loosely may cause injury in the event of an accident.
METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (1/4) These are: – Have the entire restraint system checked following an accident. – buckle pretensioners, – lap belt pretensioners in the front seats, – No operation whatsoever is permitted on any part of the system (pretensioners, air bags, computers, wiring) and the system components must not be reused on any other vehicle, even if identical. – force limiters, – air bags for driver and front passenger.
METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (2/4) Force limiter Above a certain level of impact force, this mechanism is used to limit the force of the belt against the body so that it is at an acceptable level.
METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (3/4) Operating faults å This warning light will light up on the instrument panel when the ignition is switched on and then go out after a few seconds. 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. Contact your approved dealer as soon as possible. Your protection will be reduced until this fault is rectified.
METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (4/4) All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag 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 air bag inflates. Warnings concerning the driver’s air bag – Do not modify the steering wheel or the steering wheel boss. – Do not cover the steering wheel boss under any circumstances.
SIDE PROTECTION DEVICES Curtain air bags B B A A These are fitted on both upper sides of the vehicle. They deploy along the front and rear side windows to protect occupants in the event of a severe side impact. Depending on the vehicle, a marking on the windscreen informs you of the presence of additional means of restraint (air bags, pretensioners, etc.) in the passenger compartment.
ADDITIONAL METHODS OF RESTRAINT All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag 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 air bag inflates. The air bag is designed to complement the action of the seat belt. Both the air bags and seat belts are integral parts of the same protection system. It is therefore essential to wear seat belts at all times.
Child safety: General information (1/2) Carrying children Children, and adults, must be correctly seated and strapped in for all journeys. The children being carried in your vehicle are your responsibility. A child is not a miniature adult. Children are at risk of specific injuries as their muscles and bones have not yet finished growing. The seat belt alone would not provide suitable protection. Use an approved child seat and ensure you use it correctly.
Child safety: General information (2/2) Using a child seat The level of protection offered by the child seat depends on its ability to restrain your child and on its installation. Incorrect installation compromises the protection it offers the child in the event of harsh braking or an impact. Before purchasing a child seat, check that it complies with the regulations for the country you are in and that it can be fitted in your vehicle.
Child safety: Choosing a child seat Rear-facing child seats A baby’s head is, proportionally, heavier than that of an adult and its neck is very fragile. Transport the child in this position as long as possible (until the age of 2 at the very least). It supports both the head and the neck. Choose a bucket type seat for best side protection and change it as soon as the child’s head is higher than the shell. Forward-facing child seats The child’s head and abdomen need to be protected as a priority.
child safety: choosing a child seat mounting (1/2) There are two ways of attaching child seats: via the seat belt or using the ISOFIX system. Attachment via the seat belt The seat belt must be adjusted to ensure that it is effective in the event of harsh braking or an impact. Do not use the child seat if it may unfasten the seat belt restraining it: the base of the seat must not rest on the buckle and/or catch of the seat belt.
child safety: choosing a child seat mounting (2/2) To access ring 3, lower cover 4 shown by a marking on the back of the seat. Fix the hook of the strap onto ring 3 and pull the strap so that the seatback of the child seat comes into contact with the seatback of the vehicle seat. 1 2 3 The two rings 1 are located between the seatback and the seat base of the seat and are identified by a marking. 4 The third ring is used to attach the upper strap on some child seats.
child safety: fitting a child seat (1/4) Some seats are not suitable for fitting child seats. The diagram on the following page shows you how to attach a child seat. The types of child seats indicated may not be available. Before using a different child seat, check with the manufacturer that it can be fitted. Fit the child seat in a rear seat wherever possible. Check that when installing the child seat in the vehicle it is not at risk of coming loose from its base.
child safety: fitting a child seat (2/4) Child seat attached using the ISOFIX mounting ü ± Seat which allows an ISOFIX child seat to be fitted. The rear seats are fitted with an anchorage point which allows a forward-facing ISOFIX child seat with universal approval to be fitted. The anchorage points are located at the back of each rear seat. The size of the ISOFIX child seat is indicated by a letter: ³ Check the status of the air bag before fitting a child seat or allowing a passenger to use the seat.
child safety: fitting a child seat (3/4) The table below summarises the information already shown on the diagram on the previous page, to ensure the regulations in force are respected.
child safety: fitting a child seat (4/4) X = S eat not suitable for fitting child seats. U = Seat which allows a child seat with “Universal” approval to be installed using a seat belt; check that it can be fitted. IUF/IL = On equipped vehicles, seat which allows an approved “Universal”/“semi-universal” or “vehicle specific” child seat to be attached using the ISOFIX system; check that it can be fitted.
child safety: deactivating/activating the front passenger air bag (1/3) 1 2 Deactivating the front passenger air bags To deactivate the air bags: when the vehicle is stationary, push and turn lock 1 to the OFF position. You must deactivate the devices in addition to the front passenger seat belt before fitting a child seat in the front passenger seat.
child safety: deactivating/activating the front passenger air bag (2/3) A 3 The markings on the dashboard and labels A on each side of passenger sun blind 3 (example: label shown above) remind you of these instructions. DANGER Since operation of the front passenger air bag is not compatible with the position of a rear-facing child seat, NEVER fit a rear-facing child seat on a front passenger seat with an active front air bag. The child may suffer very serious injuries if the air bag is triggered. 1.
child safety: deactivating/activating the front passenger air bag (3/3) DANGER 1 2 Operating faults Activating the front passenger air bags You should reactivate the air bag as soon as you remove the child seat from the front passenger seat to ensure the protection of the front passenger in the event of an impact. To reactivate the air bags: when the vehicle is stationary, push and turn lock 1 to the ON position. With the ignition on, it is essential to check that warning light 2, ã , is off.
Steering wheel/power-assisted steering Power-assisted steering With the engine running, do not leave the steering wheel at full lock while stationary as this may damage the powerassisted steering pump. With the engine switched off, or if there is a system fault, it is still possible to turn the steering wheel. The force required will be greater.

In all cases, the assisted parking brake can be applied manually, e.g. when stopping at a red light or on a slope. To do this, pull out and release handle 1. The brake will be released automatically as soon as the vehicle starts again and accelerates.
ASSISTED PARKING BRAKE (continued) Operating faults – In the event of a fault, a warning message appears on the display (depending on the vehicle) and depending on the case, warning light 2 flashes and warning light 5 lights up. 2 1 3 5 – If the assisted parking brake cannot be used, indicator light 3 flashes for approximately 10 seconds when the engine is started, then goes out. 6 7 Versions with an automatic gearbox Never leave your vehicle without moving the selector lever to position N or P.
GEAR LEVER/POWER-ASSISTED STEERING The reversing lights will come on as soon as reverse gear is selected with the ignition on. 1 Vehicles fitted with parking distance control: refer to the information on the “Parking distance control” in Section 2 for details of the special features. Power-assisted steering If you have power-assisted steering fitted, do not leave the steering wheel at full lock while stationary as this may damage the pump.
ADVICE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving Your vehicle complies with criteria for recycling and recovering vehicles at the end of their service life which will come into force in 2015. Some parts of your vehicle have therefore been designed to facilitate future recycling. These parts are easy to remove so that they can be recovered and reprocessed by recycling companies.
ADVICE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (continued) Exhaust gas monitoring system – Brake as little as possible by suitably anticipating an obstacle or bend and then simply releasing the accelerator pedal. – Avoid sudden acceleration. The exhaust gas monitoring system will detect any operating faults in the vehicle’s antipollution system. – Do not try to maintain the same speed up a hill, accelerate no more than you would on the level.
ADVICE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (continued) – In vehicles fitted with air conditioning, it is normal to observe an increase in fuel consumption (especially in city conditions) when it is used. For vehicles fitted with manual air conditioning, switch off the system when it is not required. In order to minimise consumption and help to protect the environment: it is recommended to drive with the air vents on and the windows closed.
Environment Your vehicle has been designed with respect for the environment in mind for its entire service life: during production, use and at the end of its life. This commitment is illustrated by the Renault eco² signature. Emissions Manufacture Our vehicles are also equipped with a particle filter system including a catalytic converter, an oxygen sensor and an active carbon filter (the latter prevents vapour from the fuel tank being released into the open air).
TYRE PRESSURE MONITOR If the vehicle is equipped with the function, this system monitors the tyre pressure. The tyre pressures can be adjusted when cold (refer to the information on “Tyre pressure” for the values). Operating principle If tyre pressures cannot be checked when the tyres are cold, the normal pressures must be increased by 0.2 to 0.3 bar (or 3 PSI). Each wheel (except for the emergency spare wheel) has a sensor in the inflation valve which periodically measures the tyre pressure.
TYRE PRESSURE MONITOR Fitting tyres (replacing tyres or fitting winter tyres) A B Since replacing tyres requires special precautions, we advise you to contact your approved dealer. Reading the tyre pressure on the instrument panel (if fitted to the vehicle).
TYRE PRESSURE MONITOR Emergency spare wheel The emergency spare wheel has no sensor, and cannot be recognised by the system. When it is fitted in the place of another wheel, the system then detects an operating fault. Replacing wheels/tyres This system requires specific equipment (wheels, hubcaps, etc.).
TYRE PRESSURE MONITOR Examples of messages which may appear on the display “Inflate tyres to motorway pressure” A The tyre pressure is not suitable for the speed of travel. Slow down or inflate all four tyres to “motorway pressure” (refer to the label located on the label on the edge of the driver’s door). Operating faults In certain conditions involving readjustment of tyre pressures, the fault message may continue to be displayed (for approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes after the vehicle has stopped).
ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAM: ESP This system helps to keep control of the vehicle in critical driving situations (avoiding an obstacle, loss of grip when cornering, etc.) and works in conjunction with the understeer control system. A When the function begins to operate, warning light A flashes to warn you. If the warning light comes on accompanied by the “ESP deactivated” message when the engine is started, turn the steering wheel from lock to lock to reinitialise the system.
TRACTION CONTROL: ASR (1/2) This system helps to limit wheelspin of the drive wheels and to control the vehicle when pulling away or accelerating. A The system also adjusts the engine speed to the grip available under the wheels, independently of the pressure exerted on the accelerator pedal. When the function begins to operate, warning light A flashes to warn you.
TRACTION CONTROL: ASR (2/2) A Operating faults If the system detects an operating fault, the message “Check ESP” is displayed on the instrument panel display along ú with the ing light A. warning light and warn- Consult an approved dealer. If the warning light comes on accompanied by the “ESP deactivated” message when the engine is started, turn the steering wheel from lock to lock to reinitialise the system. 1 Disabling the function In some situations (driving on very wet ground: snow, mud, etc.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM: ABS Under heavy braking, the essential requirements are to limit the stopping distance and keep your vehicle under control. However, there is a risk that roadholding and directional control may be lost and the wheels may lock under braking, depending on the nature of the ground, weather conditions and your reactions. The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) has been designed to combat this danger.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM: ABS (continued) One of two situations may arise if there is a fault in the ABS system: 1 – Orange warning light on the instrument panel. x A is lit Braking is still performed, but without the ABS system. Contact an approved Dealer as soon as possible. 2 – Orange warning light x D and red brake circuit incident warning Also, on equipped vehicles, the message “Check ABS” appears on the display A. light are lit on the instrument panel.
EMERGENCY BRAKE ASSIST This system is complementary to the ABS and helps reduce vehicle stopping distances. Operating principle The system allows an emergency braking situation to be detected via a sensor that measures the speed with which the brake pedal is depressed. In this case, the braking assistance instantly provides its maximum power. ABS braking is maintained as long as the brake pedal is applied. Hazard warning lights activation These may light up in the event of rapid deceleration.
CRUISE CONTROL - SPEED LIMITER: limiter function 2 1 The speed limiter function helps you stay within the driving speed limit that you choose. 5 3 4 Controls 1 Main “On/Off” switch.

TYRES (1/3) Tyre and wheel safety The tyres are the only contact between the vehicle and the road, so it is essential to keep them in good condition. When the tyre tread has been worn to the level of the warning strips, they become visible 2: it is then necessary to replace your tyres because the tread rubber is now only 1.6 mm deep at most, resulting in poor road holding on wet roads. 1 You must make sure that your tyres conform to local road traffic regulations.
TYRES (2/3) Tyre pressures Tyre pressures must be adhered to (including the emergency spare wheel). Pressures must be checked at least once a month and always before a long journey (refer to the label affixed to the edge of the driver’s door). Incorrect tyre pressures lead to abnormal tyre wear and unusually hot running.
TYRES (3/3) Fitting new tyres For safety reasons, this operation must be carried out by a specialist. Fitting different tyres may change your vehicle as follows: – may mean that your vehicle no longer conforms to current regulations; – it may change the way it handles when cornering; – it may cause the steering to be heavy; – It may affect the use of snow chains.
