SYSTEMS IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (2/4)
Driver’s and passenger air 
bags
These  may  be  provided  for  the  driver 
and the front passenger seats.
The  presence  of  this  equipment  is  in -
dicated  by  the  words  “Air  bag”  on  the 
steering wheel and the dashboard, and 
a label on the base of the windscreen or 
on the sun visor.
Each air bag system consists of:
–  an  air  bag  and  gas  generator  fitted 
on  the  steering  wheel  for  the  driver 
and  in  the  dashboard  for  the  front 
passenger;
–  an electronic unit for system monitor-
ing which controls the gas generator 
electrical trigger system;
–  a special tell-tale light 
å;
–  remote sensors.
Load limiter
Above  a  certain  level  of  impact  force, 
this mechanism is used to limit the force 
of the belt against the body so that it is 
at an acceptable level.
The  air  bag  system  uses 
pyrotechnic  principles.  This 
explains  why,  when  the  air 
bag  inflates,  it  will  gener -
ate heat, produce smoke (this does 
not mean that a fire is about to start) 
and make a noise upon detonation. 
An  air  bag  may  inflate  immediately, 
causing  some  minor,  superficial 
grazing to the skin or other discom-
fort.

Environment
ENVIRONMENT
Emissions
Your  vehicle  has  been  designed  to 
emit  fewer  greenhouse  gases  (CO2) 
while in use, and therefore to consume 
less  fuel  (e.g.  140  g/km,  equivalent  to 
5.3   l/100 km for a diesel vehicle).
Our  vehicles  are  also  equipped  with  a 
particle  filter  system  including  a  cata -
lytic  converter,  an  oxygen  sensor  and 
an  active  carbon  filter  (the  latter  pre -
vents  vapour  from  the  fuel  tank  being 
released into the open air).
For certain diesel vehicles, this system 
also  has  a  particle  filter  to  reduce  the 
volume of soot particles emitted.
Please make your own 
contribution towards 
protecting the environment 
too.
–  Worn  parts  replaced  in  the  course 
of  routine  vehicle  maintenance  (bat-
tery, oil filter, air filter, batteries, etc.) 
and  oil  containers  (empty  or  filled 
with  used  oil)  must  be  disposed  of 
through specialist organisations. – 
At  the  end  of  the  vehicle’s  service 
life,  it  should  be  sent  to  approved 
centres to ensure that it is recycled.
–  In  all  cases,  comply  with  local  legis -
lation.
Recycling
Your  vehicle  is  85%  recyclable  and 
95% recoverable.
To  achieve  these  objectives,  many  of 
the vehicle components have been de-
signed  to  enable  them  to  be  recycled. 
The  materials  and  structures  have 
been  carefully  designed  to  allow  these 
components  to  be  easily  removed  and 
reprocessed  by  specialist  companies. 
In  order  to  preserve  raw  material  re -
sources,  this  vehicle  incorporates  nu -
merous parts made from recycled plas-
tics  or  renewable  materials  (vegetable 
or  animal-derived  materials  such  as 
cotton or wool).
Your  vehicle  has  been  designed  with 
respect for the 
environment in mind for 
its entire service life: during production, 
use and at the end of its life.
This  commitment  is  illustrated  by  the 
Dacia eco² group signature.
ManufactureYour vehicle has been manufactured at 
an industrial site which uses a progress 
policy to reduce environmental impacts 
on  rivers  and  natural  areas  (reduc -
tion  of  water  and  energy  consumption, 
visual and noise pollution, atmospheric 
emissions and waste water, sorting and 
reusing waste).

Filters
FILTERS
The  replacement  of  filter  elements  (air 
filter,  passenger  compartment  filter, 
diesel  filter,  etc.)  is  scheduled  in  the 
maintenance  operations  for  your  vehi -
cle.
Replacement  intervals  for  filter  el -
ements:  refer  to  the  Maintenance 
Service Booklet for your vehicle.
Passenger compartment filter
If your vehicle is not originally fitted with 
a  passenger  compartment  filter,  it  is 
possible to have one retrofitted.
Contact an approved dealer.
The  engine  may  be  hot 
when  carrying  out  opera -
tions  in  close  proximity.  In 
addition, the engine cooling 
fan can come on at any moment.
Risk of injury.
Air filter
If fitted to the vehicle, clogging sensor  1 
allows  you  to  see  the  condition  of  the 
air filter.
Replacement  of  the  filter  is  scheduled 
in  the  maintenance  operations:  refer 
to  your  vehicle’s  Maintenance  Service 
Booklet for your vehicle.
However, it must be checked regularly, 
especially if you drive in dusty environ -
ments.
If  clogging  level  indicator  2   reaches 
100%,  consult  an  approved  dealer  as 
soon  as  possible  to  have  the  filter  re -
placed.
Resetting the air filter clogging 
sensor
Once  the  air  filter  has  been  replaced, 
turn  button  3   on  the  clogging  sensor 
fully (movement A).
