 Following an accident, itis necessary to have the
entire restraint system
checked by a qualified
technician.
 No operation whatsoever is permitted on any part of the
system (pretensioners, airbags,
computers, wiring) and the
system components must not be
reused on any other vehicle, even
if identical.
 To avoid accidental triggering of the system which may cause
injury, only qualified Renault
Network personnel may work on
the pretensioner and airbag
system.
 Testing of the electrical trigger system may only be carried out
by a specially trained technician
using suitable equipment.
 When the vehicle is scrapped, contact your RENAULT Dealer for
disposal of the pretensioner and
airbag gas generators.
METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS
These are:
■ buckle pretensioners,
■ lap pretensioners (five-door
version only),
■ thorax load limiters,
■ driver and passenger front
airbags,
■ anti-submarining airbags (three-
door version only).
These systems are designed to act
independently or together when the
vehicle is subjected to a frontal
impact.
Depending on the severity of the
impact, the system can trigger:
- seat belt locking;
- the buckle pretensioner (which engages to correct seat belt slack);
- the lap belt pretensioner or the anti-submarining airbag to keep
the occupant in their seat, the “low
volume” frontal airbag and load
limiters;
- the “large volume” frontal airbag.
Pretensioners
The pretensioners hold the seat belt
against the body, holding the
occupant more securely against the
seat, thus increasing the seat belt’s
efficiency.
With the ignition switched on, if
there is a severe frontal impact and
depending on the force of the
impact, the system may engage the:
- piston 1which instantly retracts
the seat belt;
- piston 2on the front seats (for the
five door version),
or
- the anti-submarining airbag (for the three door version).

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (continued)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.Warnings concerning the driver’s airbag
 Do not modify the steering wheel or the steering wheel boss.
 Do not cover the steering wheel boss.
 Do not attach any objects (badge, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the steering wheel boss.
 The steering wheel must not be removed (except by qualified personnel\
from the RENAULT Network).
 When driving, do not sit too close to the steering wheel. 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 concerning the passenger airbag
 Do not attach or glue any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder\
, etc.) to the dashboard in the proximity of the airbag housing.
 Do not place anything between the dashboard and the passenger (pet, umb\
rella, walking stick, parcels, etc.).
 The passenger must not put his or her feet on the dashboard or seat as t\
here is a risk that serious injuries may be sustained. In general, parts of the body should be kept away from the da\
shboard (knees, hands, head etc.)
 The passenger airbags should be reactivated as soon as the child seat is\
removed, to ensure the protection of the front passenger in the event of an impact.
A REAR-FACING CHILD/BABY SEAT MUST NOT BE FITTED TO THE FRONT PASSENGER \
SEAT UNLESS THE
ADDITIONAL RESTRAINT SYSTEMS, I.E. THE PASSENGER AIRBAG, ARE DEACTIVATED\
. (Refer to the information
on “deactivating the front passenger airbags” in Section 1.)
Warnings concerning the anti-submarining airbag
When triggered, the anti-submarining airbag could project objects left o\
n the seat cushion with some force.

CHILD SAFETY (continued)
CHILD SAFETY
 No modifications may be made to the original component parts of the rest\
raint system (belts and seats and theirmountings).
 Carefully follow the instructions for fitting provided by the manufactur\
er of the restraint system.
 Always avoid dressing the child in bulky garments and do not place any o\
bjects between the child and the restraint system.
 The seat belt in the vehicle must be tight enough to hold the child’s seat in position securely. Check the tension regularly.
 Never wear the belt under your arm or behind your back.
 The harness or belt should be taut and fitted to suit the child’s size.
 Never allow your child to stand up or kneel on the seats while the vehic\
le is moving.
 Check that the child is in the correct position for the entire journey, particularly when they are asleep.
 Use the seat belts to hold the seat in position, even if it is not occ\
upied. Otherwise, if an accident were to occur, it may become dislodged and pose a risk to other vehicle occupants.
 Following a serious accident, check the seat belts or the ISOFIX seat mo\
unting and replace the child seat.
 Never leave a child unsupervised in a vehicle, even if they are in a res\
training device.
 Lock the rear doors (if your vehicle is equipped with the function).
 Make sure the child does not get out of the vehicle at the side where th\
ere is traffic.
 Set your children a good example; always wear your seat belt.
