2017 RENAULT ALASKAN steering

•
Tampering with the supplemental air bag sys-
tems may result in serious personal injury.
Tampering includes changes to the steering
wheel and the instrument panel by placing
materials over the steering wheel pad and
above, around or on the instrument panel or
by installing additional trim materials around
the supplemental air bag systems.
• Work on and around the supplemental air bag
systems should be done by an approved
dealer or qualified workshop. The SRS wiring
should not be modified or disconnected. Un-
authorised electrical test equipment and
probing devices should not be used on the
supplemental air bag systems.
• The SRS wiring harness connectors are yel-
low for easy identification.
• Never install
arear-facing child restraint sys-
tem on the front passenger seat without first
deactivating the passenger air bag with the
front passenger air bag switch. In afrontal
collision, supplemental front-impact air bags
inflate with great force. An inflating supple-
mental front-impact air bag could seriously
injure or kill your child.
When the air bags inflate, afairly loud noise may be
heard, followed by the release of smoke. This smoke
is not harmful and does not indicate afire. Care
should be taken not to inhale it, as it may cause irri-
tation and choking. Those with ahistory of abreath-
ing condition should get fresh air promptly. Supplemental front-impact air bag
system
The driver’s supplemental front-impact air bag is
located at the centre of the steering wheel. The pas-
senger’s supplemental front-impact air bag is lo-
cated at the instrument panel above the glove box.
The supplemental front-impact air bag system is de-
signed to inflate in higher severity frontal collisions,
although it may inflate if the forces in another type of
collision are similar to those of
ahigher severity fron-
tal impact. It may not inflate in certain frontal colli-
sions. Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an
indication of proper supplemental front-impact air
bag system operation. WARNING
Never install
arear-facing child restraint system
on the front passenger seat without first deacti-
vating the passenger air bag with the front pas-
senger air bag switch (where fitted), see “Front
passenger air bag switch (where fitted)” later in
this section. In afrontal collision, supplemental
front-impact air bags inflate with great force. An
inflating supplemental front-impact air bag could
seriously injure or kill your child. Front passenger air bag status light (where fit-

When the low tyre pressure warning light illuminates,
you should stop and adjust the tyre pressure of all 4
tyres to the recommended COLD tyre pressure
shown on the tyre placard located on the driver side
centre pillar see “Tyre placard” in the “9. Technical information” section. The low tyre pressure warning
light does not automatically turn off when the tyre pressure is adjusted. After the tyre is inflated to the
recommended pressure, the vehicle must be driven
at speeds above 25 km/h (16 MPH) to activate the
TPMS and turn off the low tyre pressure warning light. Use atyre pressure gauge to check the tyre
pressure.
The low tyre pressure (e.g., [Low tyre pressure])
warning appears each time the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position as long as the low tyre
pressure warning light remains illuminated.
For additional information, see “Vehicle information
display” later in this section and “Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) (where fitted)” later in
this section.
TPMS resetting must be also performed after atyre
or aw heel is replaced, or the tyres are rotated.
Depending on achange in the outside temperature,
the low tyre pressure warning light may illuminate
even if the tyre pressure has been adjusted prop-
erly. Adjust the tyre pressure to the recommended
COLD tyre pressure again when the tyres are cold,
and reset the TPMS. If the low tyre pressure warning light still continues
to illuminate after the resetting operation, it may indi-
cate that the TPMS is not functioning properly. Have
the system checked by an approved dealer or quali-
fied workshop.
For additional information, see “Tyre Pressure Moni-
toring System (TPMS) (where fitted)” in the “5. Start-
ing and driving” section and “Vehicle information
display” later in this section.
TPMS malfunction:
If the TPMS is not functioning properly, the low tyre
pressure warning light will flash for approximately 1
minute when the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position. The light will remain on after
1minute. Have
the system checked by an approved dealer or quali-
fied workshop. The low tyre pressure warning does
not appear if the low tyre pressure warning light illu-
minates to indicate aTPMS malfunction.
For additional information, see “Tyre Pressure Moni-
toring System (TPMS) (where fitted)” in the “5. Start-
ing and driving” section. WARNING
• Radio waves could adversely affect electric
medical equipment. Those who use apace-
maker should contact the electric medical
equipment manufacturer for the possible in-
fluences before use. •
If the light does not illuminate with the igni-
tion switch pushed ON, have the vehicle
checked by an approved dealer or qualified
workshop as soon as possible.
• If the low tyre pressure warning light illumi-
nates while driving, avoid sudden steering
manoeuvres or abrupt braking, reduce vehicle
speed, pull off the road to
asafe location and
stop the vehicle as soon as possible. Driving
with under-inflated tyres may permanently
damage the tyres and increase the likelihood
of tyre failure. Serious vehicle damage could
occur and may lead to an accident and could
result in serious personal injury. Check the
tyre pressure for all four tyres. Adjust the tyre
pressure to the recommended COLD tyre
pressure shown on the tyre placard, located
on the driver side centre pillar, to turn the low
tyre pressure warning light off. If the light still
illuminates while driving after adjusting the
tyre pressure, atyre may be flat. If you have a
flat tyre, repair it with the emergency tyre
puncture repair kit (where fitted) or replace it
with aspare tyre (where fitted) as soon as
possible.
• After adjusting the tyre pressure, be sure to
reset the TPMS. Unless the resetting is per-
formed, the TPMS will not warn of the low tyre
pressure correctly.

The headlight aiming control operates when the ig- nition switch is in the ONand the headlight switch is
in the position to allow the headlight axis to be
adjusted according to the driving condition.
When driving with no heavy load/luggage or driving
on aflat road, select the normal position <0>.
If the number of occupants and load/luggage in the
vehicle changes, the headlight axis may become
higher than normal.
If the vehicle is travelling on ahilly road, the head-
lights may directly shine on the rearview and outside mirrors of avehicle ahead or the windscreen of an
oncoming vehicle, which may obscure another driv-
ers’ vision. To adjust to the proper aiming height, turn the switch
accordingly. The higher the number, designated on
the switch, the lower the headlight axis.
Automatic type
For vehicles fitted with an automatic levelling sys-
tem, the headlight axis is controlled automatically.
