RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)
This Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) section
contains important information concerning the driv-
er’s and passenger’s supplemental front-impact air
bags, supplemental driver’s knee air bag (where fit-
ted), supplemental side-impact air bags (where fit-
ted), supplemental curtain side-impact air bags
(where fitted) and pre-tensioner seat belts (where
fitted).
Supplemental front-impact air bag
system
This system can help cushion the impact force to
the head and chest area of the driver and/or front
passenger in certain frontal collisions. The supple-
mental front-impact air bag is designed to inflate on
the front where the vehicle is impacted.
Supplemental driver’s knee air bag
system (where fitted)
This system can help cushion the impact force to
the knee area of the driver in certain frontal colli-
sions. The supplemental driver’s knee air bag is de-
signed to inflate on the front where the vehicle is
impacted.SSS0513Z SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT

avoid an accident with oncoming traffic.
• To help avoid risk of injury or death through
unintended operation of the vehicle and/or its
systems, do not leave children, people who
require the assistance of others, or pets unat-
tended in your vehicle. Additionally, the tem-
perature inside
aclosed vehicle on awarm
day can quickly become high enough to cause
as ignificant risk of injury or death to people
and pets.

CAUTION
•
When locking the doors using the power door
lock switch, be sure not to leave the key in the
vehicle.
• When the Remote Control Key (where fitted)
is left in the vehicle, and you try to lock the
door using the power door lock switch after
getting out of the vehicle, all the doors will

When the levers are in the lock position
➀,t
he
child safety rear door locks engage and the rear
doors can only be opened by the outside door
handles.
To disengage, move the levers to the unlock posi-
tion ➁. The remote keyless entry system can operate all
door locks using the integrated key fob. The inte-
grated key fob can operate at
adistance of approxi-
mately 1m(3.3 ft) away from the vehicle. The oper-
ating distance depends upon the conditions around
the vehicle.
As many as 5integrated key fobs can be used with
one vehicle. For information about the purchase and
use of additional integrated key fobs, contact an
approved dealer or qualified workshop.
The integrated key fob will not function under the
following conditions:
• When the distance between the integrated key
fob and vehicle is more than approximately 1m
(3.3 ft).
• When the integrated key fob battery is
discharged.
• When the key is in the ignition switch.
CAUTION
• When locking the doors using the integrated
key fob, be sure not to leave the key in the
vehicle.
• Do not allow the integrated key fob, which
contains electrical components, to come into
contact with water or salt water. This could
affect the system function.
• Do not drop the integrated key fob.
• Do not strike the remote controller sharply
against another object. •
Do not place the integrated key fob for an
extended period in an area where tempera-
tures exceed 60°C (140°F).
If ai ntegrated key fob is lost or stolen, RENAULT
recommends erasing the ID code of that integrated
key fob from the vehicle. This may prevent the
unauthorised use of the integrated key fob to unlock
the vehicle. For information regarding the erasing
procedure, contact an approved dealer or qualified
workshop.
For information regarding the replacement of abat-
tery, see “Remote controller battery replacement” in
the “8. Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section.
USING REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
SYSTEM WARNING
For Super Lock System equipped models, failure
to follow the precautions below may lead to haz-
ardous situations. Make sure the Super Lock Sys-
tem activation is always safely conducted.
• When the vehicle is occupied, never lock the
doors with the integrated key fob. Doing so
will trap the occupants, since the Super Lock
System prevents the doors from being opened
from the inside of the vehicle.
• Only operate the integrated key fob lock but-
ton when there is
aclear view of the vehicle.
This is to prevent anybody from being trapped
inside the vehicle through the Super Lock
System activation.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
SYSTEM (where fitted)
3-6 Pre-driving checks and adjustments

When leaving your vehicle unoccupied:
• Always take the key with you
-even when leav-
ing the vehicle in your own garage.
• Close all windows completely and lock all doors.
• Always park your vehicle where it can be seen.
Park in
awell lit area during the night.
• If the security system is equipped, use it
-even
for ashort period.
• Never leave children or pets in the vehicle unat-
tended.
• Never leave valuables inside the vehicle. Always
take valuables with you.
• Never leave the vehicle documents in the ve-
hicle.
• Never leave articles on
aroof rail. Remove them
from the rack and keep and lock them inside the
vehicle.
• Never leave the spare key in the vehicle. WARNING
If the engine is not running or is turned off while
driving, the power assist for the steering will not
work. The steering will be much harder to oper-
ate.
The power assisted steering is designed to use a
hydraulic pump driven by the engine, to assist steer-
ing.
If the engine stops or the drive belt breaks, you will
still have control of the vehicle. However, greater
steering effort is needed, especially in sharp turns
and at low speeds. The brake system has two separate hydraulic cir-
cuits. If one circuit malfunctions, you will still have
braking ability at two wheels.
BRAKE PRECAUTIONS
Vacuum assisted brakes
The brake booster aids braking by using engine
vacuum. If the engine stops, you can stop the ve-
hicle by depressing the footbrake pedal. However,
greater foot pressure on the footbrake pedal will be
required to stop the vehicle. The stopping distance
will be longer.
If the engine is not running or is turned off while driv-
ing, the power assisted brakes will not function.
Braking will be harder. WARNING
Do not coast with the engine stopped.
Using brakes
Avoid resting your foot on the footbrake pedal while
driving. This will overheat the brakes, wear out the
brake linings/pads faster, and increase fuel con-
sumption.
To help reduce brake wear and to prevent the brakes
from overheating, reduce speed and downshift to a
lower gear before going down aslope or long grade.
Overheated brakes may reduce braking perfor-
mance and could result in loss of vehicle control.
