Heated seats (where fitted)
The front seats can be warmed by built-in heaters.
The switches located on the centre console can be
operated independently of each other.
1. Start the engine.
2. Select heat range. • For high heat, push the (High) side of
the switch
➀.
• For low heat, push the (Low) side of
the switch
➁.
• The indicator light
➂will illuminate when the
heater is on.
3. To turn off the heater, return the switch to the level position. Make sure the indicator light turns
off.
The heater is controlled by athermostat, auto-
matically turning the heater on and off. The indi-
cator light will remain on as long as the switch is
on. When the vehicle’s interior is warmed be sure to
turn off the switch.
CAUTION
• The battery could run down if the seat heater
is operated while the engine is not running.
• Do not use the seat heater for extended peri-
ods or when no one is using the seat.
• Do not put anything on the seat which insu-
lates heat, such as
ablanket, cushion, seat
cover, etc. Otherwise, the seat may become
overheated.
• Do not place anything hard or heavy on the
seat or pierce it with apin or similar object.
This may result in damage to the seat heater.
• Any liquid spilled on the heated seat should
be removed immediately with
adry cloth.
• When cleaning the seat, never use petrol, thin-
ner, or any similar materials.
• If any malfunctions are found or the heated
seat does not operate, turn the switch off and
have the system checked by an approved
dealer or qualified workshop. REAR SEATS (Double Cab model)

SEAT BELT MAINTENANCE
Periodically check that the seat belt and all the metal
components, such as buckles, tongues, retractors,
flexible wires and anchors, work properly. If loose
parts, deterioration, cuts or other damage on the
seat belt webbing is found, the entire seat belt as-
sembly should be replaced.
If dirt builds up in the shoulder belt guide of the seat
belt anchors, the seat belts may retract slowly. Wipe
the shoulder belt guide with aclean, dry cloth.
To clean the seat belt webbing, apply amild soap
solution or any solution recommended for cleaning
upholstery or carpet. Then wipe with acloth and
allow the seat belts to dry in the shade. Do not allow
the seat belts to retract until they are completely dry. PRECAUTIONS ON CHILD
RESTRAINT USAGE WARNING
• Infants and small children should never be
carried on your lap. It is not possible for even
the strongest adult to resist the forces of a
severe accident. The child could be crushed
between the adult and parts of the vehicle.
Also, it is dangerous to put aseat belt around
ac hild being carried on the occupant’s lap.
• Infants and children need special protection.
The vehicle’s seat belts may not fit them prop-
erly. The shoulder belt may come too close to
the face or neck. The lap belt may not fit over
their small hip bones. In an accident, an im-
properly fitting seat belt could cause serious
or fatal injury.
• Infants and small children should always be
placed in an appropriate child restraint sys- tem while riding in the vehicle. Failure to use
ac
hild restraint system can result in serious
injury or death.
• Child restraint systems specially designed for
infants and small children are available from
several manufacturers. When selecting any
child restraint systems, place your child in the
child restraint system and check the various
adjustments to be sure that the child restraint
system is compatible with your child. Always
follow the manufacturer’s instructions for in-
stallation and use.
• RENAULT recommends that the child restraint
system be installed in the rear seat (Double
Cab model). According to accident statistics,
children are safer when properly restrained in
the rear seat rather than in the front seat.
• Follow all of the child restraint system manu-
facturer’s instructions for installation and use.
When purchasing
achild restraint system, be
sure to select one which will fit your child and
vehicle. It may not be possible to properly in- stall some types of child restraint systems in
your vehicle.
• The direction of the child restraint, either
front-facing or rear-facing, depends on the
type of the child restraint and the size of the child. Refer to the child restraint manufactur-
er’s instructions for details.
• For
afront-facing child restraint system,
check to make sure the shoulder belt does
not fit close to child’s face or neck. If you SSS0099Z
CHILD RESTRAINTS
1-14 Safety —seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

must install
afront-facing child restraint sys-
tem in the front seat, see “Installation on front
passenger’s seat” later in this section.
• Never install
arear-facing child restraint sys-
tem on the front passenger’s seat when the
front passenger’s air bag is active. Supple- mental front-impact air bags inflate with great
force. Arear-facing child restraint system
could be struck by the supplemental front-im-
pact air bags in an accident and could seri-
ously injure or kill your child.
• Do not install
achild restraint in the jump seats
(where fitted for King Cab model). These
seats are not suitable for child restraint instal-
lation.
• Adjustable seatbacks should be positioned to
fit
ac hild restraint system, but as upright as
possible. see “Installation on rear outboard
seats” later in this section and “Child restraint
installation using three-point type seat belt”
later in this section.
• If the seat belt in the position where
achild
restraint system is installed requires alocking
clip and if it is not used, injuries could result
from achild restraint system tipping over dur-
ing normal vehicle braking or cornering.
• After attaching
achild restraint system, test it
before you place the child in it. Tilt it from side
to side. Try to tug it forward and check if it is
held securely in place. The child restraint sys-
tem should not move more than 25 mm (1 in). If the restraint is not secure, tighten the belt
as necessary, or install the restraint in another
seat and test it again.
• Check the child restraint system in your ve-
hicle to be sure that it is compatible with the
vehicle’s seat belt system.
• If
ac hild restraint system is not anchored
properly, the risk of achild being injured in a
collision or asudden stop greatly increases.
• Improper use of
achild restraint system can
increase the risk or severity of injury for both
the child and other occupants in the vehicle.
• Always use an appropriate child restraint sys-
tem. An improperly installed child restraint
system could lead to serious injury or death in
an accident.
• When the child restraint system is not in use,
keep it secured with the ISOFIX and i-Size
child restraint system or
aseat belt to prevent
it from being thrown around in case of asud-
den stop or accident.
RENAULT recommends that infants and small chil-
dren be seated in achild restraint system. You
should choose achild restraint system that fits your
vehicle and always follow the manufacturer’s in-
structions for installation and use. In addition, there
are many types of child restraint systems available
for larger children that should be used for maximum
protection. CAUTION
Remember that
achild restraint system left in a
closed vehicle can become very hot. Check the
seating surface and buckles before placing your
child in achild restraint system.
UNIVERSAL CHILD RESTRAINTS FOR
FRONT SEAT AND REAR SEATS (for
Europe)
NOTE
Child restraints approved to UN Regulation No.
44 or No. 129 are clearly marked with the catego-
ries such as Universal, Semi-universal or ISOFIX.
When selecting any child restraint, keep the follow-
ing points in mind:
• Choose
achild restraint that complies with the
latest European safety standard, UN Regulation
No. 44 or No. 129.
• Place your child in the child restraint and check
the various adjustments to be sure the child re-
straint is compatible with your child. Always fol-
low all of the recommended procedures.
• Check the child restraint in your vehicle to be
sure it is compatible with vehicle’s retention sys-
tem.
• Refer to the tables later in this section for
alist of
the recommended fitment positions and the ap-
proved child restraints for your vehicle.

5. Test the child restraint before you place the child
in it ➄.P
ush the child restraint from side to side
and tug it forward to make sure that it is held
securely in place.
6. Check to make sure that the child restraint is properly secured prior to each use. If the child
restraint is loose, repeat steps 3through 5.
Installation on front passenger’s seat WARNING
• Never install
arear-facing child restraint on
the front passenger’s seat when the front pas-
senger’s air bag is available. Supplemental
front-impact air bags inflate with great force.
Ar ear-facing child restraint could be struck
by the supplemental front-impact air bags in
an accident and could seriously injure or kill
your child.
• Never install
achild restraint with atop tether
strap on the front seat.
• RENAULT recommends that
achild restraint
be installed on the rear seat (Double Cab
models). However, if you must install achild
restraint on the front passenger’s seat, move
the passenger’s seat to the rearmost posi-
tion. •
Child restraints for infants must be used in
the rear-facing direction and therefore must
not be used on the front passenger’s seat
when the front passenger’s air bag is avail-
able. SSS0300AZ
