Operating fault warning light
If the warning light continues to flash or
stays lit up permanently following an at-
tempt to start the engine, this indicates
a fault in the system.
In this case, use the second key or card
(supplied with the vehicle). If the fault
is still present, contact an approved
Dealer, as they are the only personnel
qualified to repair the engine immobi -
liser system.
If there is interference and/or the hands -
free RENAULT card is not recognised,
move the card or insert it fully into the
card reader.
Vehicle protection tell-tale
light
After the ignition has been switched off,
warning light 1 flashes and the vehicle
is protected.
This prevents anyone not in posses-
sion of the vehicle’s coded ignition
key or card from starting the engine.
Operating principle
When the engine is started, warning
light
1 remains lit for a few seconds
then goes out (refer to the information
on “Starting the engine” in Section 2).
The vehicle is automatically protected
a few seconds after the engine is
switched off.
ENGINE IMMOBILISER

Any unauthorised work
carried out on the engine

FRONT HEADRESTS (2/2)
The headrest is important
for safety. Ensure that it is in
place and in the correct po-
sition: the top of the head -
rest should be as close as possible
to the top of the head and there must
be a minimal distance between the
head and the headrest B.
To refit the headrest
If the rod setting has been altered, pull
rods 3 out fully (check that they are
properly aligned and clean). If you are
having difficulty, check that the notches
are facing the front.
Insert the headrest rods into the holes
(tilt the seatback backwards if neces -
sary).
Lower the headrest until it locks, press
button 1 and lower the headrest as far
as possible.
Check that each rod 3 on the seatback
is securely locked.
To raise the headrest
Raise the headrest to its highest po -
sition (tilt the seatback backwards if
necessary). Press button 2 and lift the
headrest to release it.
Note: when the headrest is removed,
take care not to change the positions
of rods 3.

– ask all of the passengers to leave
the vehicle and remove any bulky
objects from the rear seats;
– lock the seat(s) in the initial position
again;

Power Assisted Steering
Never drive with an inadequately
charged battery.
Variable power assisted
steering
The variable power assisted steering
system is equipped with an electronic
control system which alters the level of
assistance to suit the vehicle speed.
Steering is made easier during parking
manoeuvres (for added comfort) whilst
the force needed to steer increases
progressively as the speed rises (for
enhanced safety at high speeds).
Adjusting the steering wheel
height and depth
(depending on vehicle)
Pull lever 1 and place the steering
wheel in the required position; push the
lever beyond the point of resistance to
lock the steering wheel in place.
Make sure that the steering wheel is
correctly locked.
Steering wheel/Power-assisted steering
Never leave the steering wheel on
full lock when the vehicle is station-
ary.
For safety reasons, only
adjust the steering wheel
when the vehicle is station-
ary.
STEERING WHEEL/POWER-ASSISTED STEERING

Never switch off the igni -
tion when travelling down -
hill, and avoid doing so in
normal driving (assistance
is not provided).
With the engine switched off, or if
there is a system fault, it is still pos-
sible to turn the steering wheel. The
force required will be greater.

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. In this case, ensure that
the lap belt is not exerting too much
pressure on the abdomen, but do
not allow any slack.
Before starting, first adjust your driv-
ing position, then ask all occupants
to adjust their seat belts to ensure
optimum protection.
Adjusting your driving
position
– Sit well back in your seat (having
first 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 depress
the clutch pedal fully. The seatback
should be adjusted so that your arms
are slightly bent when you hold the
steering wheel;
– adjust the position of your head -
rest. For the maximum safety, your
head must be as close as possible to
the headrest;
– adjust the height of the seat. This
adjustment allows you to select the
seat position which offers you the
best possible view ;
– adjust the position of the steering
wheel.
Adjusting the seat belts
Sit with your back firmly against the
seatback.
Shoulder strap 1 should be as close as
possible to the base of the neck but not
on it.
Lap belt 2 should be worn flat over the
thighs and against the pelvis.
The belt should be worn so that it is
as close as possible to your body, i.e.:
avoid wearing heavy clothing or keep -
ing bulky objects under the belts, etc.
Make sure that the rear bench seat
is locked in position correctly so that
the rear seat belts will operate effi -
ciently. Refer to the information on
the “Rear bench seat: functions” in
Section 3.

Locking
Unwind the belt slowly and smoothly
and ensure that buckle 3 locks into
catch 5 (check that it is locked by pull -
ing on buckle 3).
If the belt jams, allow it to return slightly
before attempting to unwind it again.
If your seat belt is completely jammed,
pull slowly, but firmly, so that just over
3 cm unwinds. Allow it to return slightly
before attempting to unwind it again.
If there is still a problem, contact an ap-
proved dealer.
