Also, in hot and/or sunny weather,
please remember that the tempera-
ture inside the passenger compart-
ment increases very quickly.

LOCKING/UNLOCKING THE DOORS (2/2)
Door and tailgate status
indicator
With the ignition on, the warning light
integrated in switch 3 informs you of the
locking status of the opening elements:
– indicator light on, the doors and tail- gate are locked,
– indicator light off, the doors and tail- gate are unlocked.
When you lock the doors, the indicator
light remains lit and then goes out.
Locking the doors without
the RENAULT card
For example, in the event of a dis-
charged battery or the RENAULT card
temporarily not working, etc.
With the engine switched off and
an opening element (door or boot)
open, press and hold switch 3 for more
than five seconds.
When the door is closed, all the doors
and the tailgate will be locked.
Unlocking the vehicle from the outside
is only possible with the RENAULT card
in the vehicle's access zone or using
the key integrated in the RENAULT
card.
Interior locking/unlocking
door control
Switch 3 controls the doors, boot and,
depending on the vehicle, the fuel filler
flap simultaneously.
If a door or the tailgate is open or not
closed properly, the doors and tailgate
lock/unlock quickly.
If you need to transport objects with the
boot open, the other opening elements
can still be locked: with the engine
stopped, press switch 3 for more than
five seconds to lock the other opening
elements.

After locking/unlocking the vehicle
using the buttons on the RENAULT
card, "hands-free" locking and un-
locking is deactivated.
To reactivate the “hands-free” mode:
restart the vehicle.Driver’s responsibility
If you decide to keep the
doors locked when you are
driving, remember that it
may be more difficult for those as-
sisting you to gain access to the
passenger compartment in the
event of an emergency.
Never leave your vehicle
with the RENAULT card
inside.

1.17
To raise or lower the seat
base
Move lever 2 as many times as neces-
sary upwards or downwards.
Heated seats
With the ignition switched on, press
switch 3 on the required seat. The indi-
cator light in the switch lights up.
The system, which has a thermostat,
regulates the heating and deactivates it
if necessary.

backwards
Lift handle 1 to unlock. Release the
handle once the seat is in the correct
position and ensure that the seat is
locked.

For safety reasons, carry
out any adjustments when
the vehicle is not being
driven.
Nothing should be placed on the
floor (area in front of driver) as such
objects may slide under the pedal
during braking manoeuvres, thus
obstructing its use.
To tilt the seatback
Turn control knob 4 and tilt the seat-
back to the desired position.

We would advise you not
to recline the seatbacks too
far to ensure that the effec-
tiveness of the seat belts is
not reduced.

1.24
METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (1/4)
1
– Have the entire restraint
system checked following
an accident.
– No operation whatso-
ever is permitted on any part of
the system (pretensioners, air
bags, computers, wiring) and the
system components must not
be reused on any other vehicle,
even if identical.
– To avoid incorrect triggering of the system which may cause
injury, only qualified personnel
from an approved Dealer may
work on the pretensioner and air
bag system.
– The electric trigger system may only be tested by a specially
trained technician using special
equipment.
– When the vehicle is scrapped, contact an approved Dealer for
disposal of the pretensioner and
air bag gas generators.Depending on the vehicle, they will con-
sist of:
– front seat belt inertia reel preten-sioners;
– chest-level load limiters;
– air bags for driver and front pas- senger.
These systems are designed to act in-
dependently or together when the vehi-
cle is subjected to a frontal impact.
Depending on the severity of the
impact, the system can trigger:
– seat belt locking;
– the seat belt inertia reel pretensioner (which engages to correct seat belt
slack);
– airbags.
Pretensioners
The pretensioners hold the seat belt
against the body, holding the occupant
more securely against the seat, thus in-
creasing the seat belt’s efficiency.
With the ignition on, following a signif-
icant frontal impact and depending on
the severity of the impact, the system
may trigger the seat belt inertia reel
pretensioner 1, which instantly retracts
the seat belt.

1.26
METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (3/4)
Operating faults
Warning light 4 å will light up on
the instrument panel when the ignition
is turned on and then go out after a few
seconds.
If it does not light up when the ignition
is switched on, or comes on when the
engine is running, there is a fault in the
system.
Contact your approved Dealer as soon
as possible. Your protection will be re-
duced until this fault is rectified.
4
Operation
This system is only operational when
the ignition is switched on.
In a severe frontal impact, the air bags
inflate rapidly, cushioning the impact
of the driver’s head and chest against
the steering wheel and of the front pas-
senger against the dashboard. The air
bags then deflate immediately so that
the passengers are not in any way hin-
dered from leaving the vehicle.

1.48
CHILD SAFETY: deactivating/activating the front passenger air bag (1/3)
Deactivating the front
passenger airbags
(on equipped vehicles)
You must deactivate the devices in ad-
dition to the front passenger seat belt
before fitting a child seat in the front
passenger seat. To deactivate the
airbags: with the
vehicle stopped and the ignition off ,
push and turn lock 1 to the OFF posi-
tion.
With the ignition on, you must check
that the warning light
¹ on the dis-
play 2 is lit up and, depending on the
vehicle, that the message “airbag pas-
senger deactivated” is displayed.
This light remains permanently lit to
let you know that you can fit a child
seat.

The passenger air bag must
only be deactivated or acti-
vated with the ignition off.
If it is interfered with when
the vehicle is being driven, indicator
lights
å and © will come
on.
Switch the ignition off then on again
to reset the air bag in accordance
with the lock.
DANGER
Since operation of the front
passenger airbag is not
compatible with the position
of a rear-facing child seat, NEVER
fit a restraint system for a rear-fac-
ing child in a seat protected by an
ACTIVATED front AIRBAG . This
can cause the CHILD’S DEATH or
SERIOUS INJURY.

1.50
CHILD SAFETY: deactivating/activating the front passenger air bag (3/3)
Activating the front
passenger air bags
You should reactivate the airbags as
soon as you remove the child seat from
the front passenger seat to ensure the
protection of the front passenger in the
event of an impact.
The passenger airbag must
only be deactivated or acti-
vated when the vehicle is
stationary.
If it is interfered with when the vehi-
cle is being driven, indicator lights
å and © will come on.
Switch the ignition off then on again
to reset the airbag in accordance
with the lock position.

Operating faults
It is forbidden to fit a rear-facing child
seat to the front passenger seat if the
airbags activation/deactivation system
is faulty.
Allowing any other passenger to sit in
that seat is not recommended.
Contact your approved dealer as soon
as possible.
To reactivate the airbags: with the
vehicle stopped and the ignition off,
push and turn lock 1 to the ON position.
