METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (2/4)
Force limiter
Above a certain level of impact force,
this mechanism is used to limit the force
of the belt against the chest so that it is
at an acceptable level.
Air bags for driver and front
passenger
An “airbag” marking on the steer-
ing wheel and the dashboard (airbag
area A) indicates that this device is
fitted.
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 intelligent computer for both sys-
tems, which includes an impact
sensor and a monitor controlling the
electrical trigger system for the gas
generator;
– an air bag warning light
å on the
instrument panel;
– remote sensors for the device.
The air bag system oper-
ates using the principles of
pyrotechnics. This explains
why, when the air bag in-
flates, it will generate heat, produce
smoke (this does not mean that a
fire is about to start) and make a
noise upon detonation. In a situa-
tion where an air bag is required, it
will inflate immediately and this may
cause some minor, superficial graz-
ing to the skin or other problems.

Operating fault messages
These appear with the © warning light and mean that you should drive very carefully to an authorised dealer as
soon as possible. If you fail to follow this recommendation, you risk damaging your vehicle.
They disappear when the display selection key is pressed or after several seconds and are stored in the computer log. The
©
warning light stays on. Examples of operating fault messages are given in the following pages.

ENVIRONMENT
Emissions
Your vehicle has been designed to
emit fewer greenhouse gases (CO2)
while in use, and therefore to consume
less fuel (eg. 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 (vehi-
cle battery, oil filter, air filter, batter-
ies, 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
Renault eco² group signature.
Manufacture
Your 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).

Syst me de surveillance de pression des pneumatiques (X45 - H45 - Renault) ENG_NU_1057-1_H45_Ph3_Renault_2
TYRE PRESSURE MONITOR (1/3)
This system monitors the tyre pressure.
The pressures must be adjusted
when the tyres are cold.
If the tyre pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres are cold, assume an in-
crease of 0.2 to 0.3 bar (or 3 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.
Operating principle
Each wheel (except for the emergency
spare wheel) has a sensor in the infla-
tion valve which periodically measures
the tyre pressure.
The system informs the driver via the
trip computer and warning system 1
that the tyres are sufficiently inflated
and warns if they are underinflated or
leaking.
1
This function is an addi-
tional driving aid.
However, the function does
not take the place of the
driver. It cannot, therefore, under
any circumstances replace the vig-
ilance or the responsibility of the
driver.
Check the tyre pressures, including
the emergency spare wheel, once a
month.
The operation of the tyre pressure
monitor may be affected by using
devices near the vehicle which op-
erate on the same frequency.
In this case, the system indicates a
drop in tyre pressure under normal
conditions.
The operation of the tyre pressure
monitor may be affected if snow
chains are fitted to the tyres or if the
tyres are stuck in snow.
Changing a wheel
Depending on use, the
system may take several
minutes for the new wheel
positions and pressures to be rec-
ognised; check the tyre pressures
after all operations.

TYRE PRESSURE MONITOR (2/3)
Changing a wheel
The tyre pressure monitor takes ap-
proximately 8 minutes to identify the
tyres which have been replaced. The
system will not operate during this time.
Fitting tyres(replacing tyres or fitting winter
tyres)
Since replacing tyres requires special
precautions, we advise you to contact
your approved dealer.
While the tyre pressure
monitor is identifying the
tyres which have been re-
placed, the information sent
by the system may be inaccurate
and this could have serious conse-
quences.
Emergency spare wheel
The emergency spare wheel has no
sensor, and cannot be recognised by
the system.
When it is fitted in the place of another
wheel, the system then detects an op-
erating fault.
Replacing wheels/tyres
This system requires specific equip-
ment (wheels, hubcaps, etc.).
Contact an approved dealer to fit new
tyres and to find out about available ac-
cessories compatible with the system
and available from your approved
dealer: the use of any other accessory
could affect the correct operation of the
system or damage a sensor.
Display
If warning lights 1 and 2 light up on the
instrument panel, this indicates there
is a fault relating to the tyre pressure
(flat tyre, puncture, system malfunction,
etc.).
An explanation of the indicator lights,
signals and messages is given on the
following page.

TYRE PRESSURE MONITOR (3/3)
Examples of messages which may appear on the instrument panel displays
Message Display Interpretation of messages
“Adjust tyre
pressure”
The tyre pressure is lower than normal.
“Underinflation
critical”
Indicator light ® comes on, accompanied by a bleep. Stop the vehicle as soon as
possible and contact an approved dealer.
The tyre pressure indicated is much lower than normal and is becoming dangerously
low.
“Puncture”
Indicator light ® comes on, accompanied by a bleep. Stop the vehicle as soon as
possible and contact an approved dealer.
The tyre indicated is deflated or punctured.
“Check tyre
pressure sensors”
One of the tyres is no longer being displayed; there is a fault with the sensor on this tyre.
“Check tyre
pressure sensors”
None of the tyre pressure sensors can be detected, or there is a fault with the system.
“Tyre pressure
sensors absent”
There is no signal being received from the tyre indicated and the tyre can no longer be
monitored by the pressure sensor (emergency spare wheel fitted, etc.).
