METhODs OF REsTRAINT IN ADDITION TO ThE FRONT sEAT BELTs (3/3)
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.
– Do not attach any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the steering wheel boss.
– The steering wheel must not be removed (except by qualified personnel from our 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 air bag to deploy correctly and be fully effective.
Warnings concerning the passenger air bag
– Do not attach or glue any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the dashboard on or near the air bag.
– Do not place anything between the dashboard and the passenger (pet, umbrella, walking stick, parcels, etc.).
– The passenger must not put his or her feet on the dashboard or seat as there is a risk that serious injuries may occur. In
general, parts of the body should be kept away from the dashboard (knee\
s, hands, head, etc.).
– The devices in addition to the front passenger seat belt should be reactivated as soon as a child seat is removed, to ensure
the protection of the passenger in the event of an impact.

(refer to Section 1 “Child safety: deactivating/activating the front\
passenger air bag”)
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.

disconnected, supply wire cut, etc.),
the clock must be reset.
We recommend that you do not
adjust these settings while driving.

Air conditionné (L38 - X38 - Renault)
ENG_NU_891_892-7_L38-B32_Renault_3
Adjusting the ventilation
speed
Turn control 2 clockwise to increase the
air flow in the passenger compartment.
The passenger compartment is ven -
tilated by blown air. The blower deter -
mines how much air enters but vehicle
speed has a slight effect on this.
Switching the air
recirculation on
Press button 6: the integrated indicator
light comes on.
Under these conditions, air is taken
from the passenger compartment and
is recirculated, with no air being taken
from outside the vehicle.
Air recirculation is for:
– isolating the vehicle from the exter -
nal atmosphere (driving in polluted
areas, etc.);
– lowering the passenger compart -
ment temperature as quickly as pos-
sible. “oFF" position:
the system is deactivated: the ventila
-
tion speed for the passenger compart-
ment air is zero (vehicle stationary),
you can however still feel a slight flow
of air when the vehicle is moving.
Recommended demisting option:
Turn controls 1 , 2 and 4 to the
W
position.
This is the quickest option for de-icing
and demisting the side windows and
the windscreen.
MANuAl AIR coNDITIoNINg (2/2)
Prolonged use of air recirculation
can lead to condensation form -
ing on the side windows and wind -
screen, and discomfort due to the
use of non-renewed air in the pas -
senger compartment.
We therefore advise you to return to
normal mode (external air) as soon
as the air recirculation function is
no longer required, by pressing the
button 6 again.
The de-icing function cannot be used with the air recirculation mode, to avoid any risk of condensation forming on the wind -
screen, and automatically triggers the air conditioning and the integrat\
ed indicator light 3 to come on.

Interior trim maintenance
glass instrument panel(e.g. instrument panel, clock, exterior
temperature display, radio display, etc.)
Use a soft cloth (or cotton wool).
If this does not clean it properly, use a
soft cloth (or cotton wool) slightly mois-
tened with soapy water and then wipe
clean with a soft damp cloth or cotton
wool.
Finally, carefully dry off with a soft dry
cloth.
Cleaning products containing alco -
hol must not be used under any cir-
cumstances.
Seat belts
These must be kept clean.
Use products selected by our Technical
Department (Approved outlets) or
warm, soapy water and a sponge and
wipe with a dry cloth.
Detergents or dyes must not be used
under any circumstances.
inteRiOR tRiM MAintenAnCe (1/2)
textiles (seats, door trim, etc)
Vacuum-clean the textiles regularly.
liquid stain
Use soapy water.
Dab lightly (never rub) with a soft cloth,
rinse and remove the excess.
Solid or pasty stain
Carefully remove the excess solid or
pasty material immediately with a
spatula (working from the edges to the
centre to avoid spreading the stain).
Clean as for a liquid stain.
Special instructions for sweets or
chewing gum
Put an ice cube on the stain to solidify
it, then proceed as for a solid stain.
A well-maintained vehicle will last
longer. It is therefore recommended to
maintain the interior of the vehicle regu-
larly.
A stain should always be dealt with
swiftly.
Whatever type of stain is on the trim,
use
cold (or warm) soapy water with
natural soap.
Detergents (washing-up liquid, pow -
dered products, alcohol-based prod-
ucts) should not be used.
Use a soft cloth.
Rinse and soak up the excess.
For further recommendations for
maintaining the interior, and/or for
any unsatisfactory results, please
see an authorised dealer.
