Sécurité enfants : choix de la fixation du siège enfant (H79 -\
Dacia)
ENG_NU_898-5_H79_Dacia_1
The third ring of each side seat is used
to attach the upper strap on some child
seats.
Pass the belt between the seatback
and the luggage compartment cover.
The rings ISOFIX 1
are located be-
tween the seatback and the seat base
and are clearly visible.
To ensure your child seat can be easily
fitted and locked on rings
1, use access
guides
2
on the child seat.
The ISOFIX anchorage points have been exclusively designed for child
seats with the ISOFIX system. Never fit a different type of child seat, seat
belt or other objects to these anchorage points.
Check that nothing is obstructing the anchorage points.
If your vehicle has been involved in a road accident, have the ISOFIX anchorage
points checked and replace your child seat.
CHILD SAFETY: mounting a child seat (2/2)
It is essential to use the lug-
gage compartment anchor-
age points
3
or 4 to attach
the upper belt of the child
seat.
It is forbidden to use other mounting
points to attach this strap.
Attach the hook on the belt to one of the
rings 3 (4x2 version) or 4 (4x4 version).
Pull the belt so that the back of the child
seat comes into contact with the vehicle
seatback.

Sécurité enfants : désactivation/activation airbag passager ava\
nt (H79 - Dacia)
ENG_NU_898-5_H79_Dacia_1
DANGER
Since front passenger air
bag triggering and the po-
sition of a rear-facing child
seat are incompatible, it is not per-
mitted to fit such a seat in this posi-
tion unless the vehicle is fitted with an
air bag deactivation device. The child
may suffer very serious injuries if the
air bag inflates.
The markings on the dashboard and
on each side of passenger sun visor
3
will remind you of these instructions.
3
The passenger air bag must
be activated or deactivated
with the ignition off .
If handled when the igni-
tion is on, the warning light
å
comes on.
Switch the ignition off then on again
to reset the air bag in accordance
with the lock position.
CHILD SAFETY: deactivating/activating the front passenger air bag (2/3)

activated. Refer to the information on
the “Engine immobiliser” in Section 1.
Starting/stopping the engine
STARTING/STOPPING THE ENGINE
Never leave your vehicle with the key or remote control inside and never leave a child (or a pet) unsupervised, even
for a short while.
The reason for this is that the child may endanger himself or others by starting the engine, activating equipment such
as the window winders for example, or locking the doors.
Risk of serious injury.
Never switch off the ignition before the vehicle has stopped completely. Once the engine has stopped, the brake servo,
power assisted steering and passive safety equipment such as air bags wi\
ll no longer operate.
The steering is locked when the key is removed.
