DANGER
Since front passenger airbag triggering and the position of a
rear-facing child seat are incompatible, it is not permitted to install
such a seat in this position unless the vehicle is fitted with an airbag
deactivation device. Refer to the information on deactivating the front
passenger airbag. The child may suffer very serious injuries if the airbag
inflates.
Label4(on the dashboard) and markings5(on the sun visors) remind you of
these instructions.

journeys.Only RENAULT child seats are
approved for this vehicle.
