WARNING
• Do not drive and/or ride in the vehicle with
the seatback reclined. This can be danger-
ous. The shoulder belt will not be properly
against the body. In an accident, you and your
passengers could be thrown into the shoul-
der belt and receive neck or other serious
injuries. You and your passengers could also
slide under the lap belt and receive serious
injuries.
• For the most effective protection while the
vehicle is in motion, the seatback should be
upright. Always sit well back and upright in
the seat and adjust the seat properly. (See
“Manual seat adjustment (where fitted)” later
in this section.)
• 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 adjusting the seat positions, be sure not to
contact any moving parts to avoid possible inju-
ries and/or damages.
FRONT SEATS WARNING
Do not adjust the driver’s seat while driving so
that full attention may be given to vehicle opera-
tion. Manual seat adjustment (where fitted) WARNING
After adjusting
aseat, gently shake the seat to
confirm that the seat is locked securely. If the
seat is not locked securely, it may move sud-
denly and could cause the loss of control of the
vehicle. SSS0133AZ

WARNING
• Never allow anyone to ride on the rear seats
when they are in the fold-up position. Use of
this area by passengers without proper re-
straints could result in serious injury or death
in an accident or sudden stop.
• When folding or returning the rear seat, be
careful not to squeeze your finger between
the seat cushion and the body side.
JUMP SEATS (where fitted for King Cab
models) WARNING
• Do not use the jump seats for child restraint
installation.
• When folding or returning the jump seat, be
careful not to squeeze your finger between
the seat cushion and the body side. •
Jump seats are designed as temporary seats
only and should only be used on occasional
short distance travels. WARNING
Head restraints supplement the other vehicle
safety systems. They may provide additional pro-
tection against injury in certain rear end colli-
sions. Adjustable head restraints must be ad-
justed properly, as specified in this section. Check the adjustment after someone else uses
the seat. Do not attach anything to the head re-
straint stalks or remove the head restraint. Do
not use the seat if the head restraint has been
removed. If the head restraint was removed, re-
install and properly adjust the head restraint be-
fore an occupant uses the seating position. Fail-
ure to follow these instructions can reduce the
effectiveness of the head restraint. This may in-
crease the risk of serious injury or death in acol-
lision.
• Your vehicle is equipped with
ahead restraint
that may be integrated, adjustable or non-adjust-
able.
• Adjustable head restraints have multiple notches
along the stalk to lock them in
adesired adjust-
ment position.
• The non-adjustable head restraints have
asingle
locking notch to secure them to the seat frame.
• Proper Adjustment:

straint so the centre of your ear is approxi-
mately level with the centre of the head re-
straint. NIC2817 HEAD RESTRAINTS

–I
fyour ear position is still higher than the rec-
ommended alignment, place the head
restraint at the highest position.
• If the head restraint has been removed, ensure
that it is reinstalled and locked in place before
riding in that designated seating position.

1. Align the head restraint stalks with the holes in the seat. Make sure that the head restraint is fac-
ing the correct direction. The stalk with the ad-
justment notch must be installed in the hole with
the lock knob.
2. Push and hold the lock knob and push the head restraint down.
3. Properly adjust the head restraint before an oc- cupant uses the seating position. NP A1314 NP A1315

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.

ISOFIX AND I-SIZE CHILD
RESTRAINT SYSTEM (for second row
seats)
Your vehicle is equipped with special anchor points
that are used with ISOFIX and i-Size child restraint
systems.
ISOFIX lower anchor point locations
The ISOFIX anchor points are provided to install
ISOFIX and i-Size child restraints in the second row
outboard seating positions only. Do not attempt to
install achild restraint in the centre seating posi-
tion using the ISOFIX anchors.
The ISOFIX anchors are located at the rear of the
seat cushion near the seatback. The word ISOFIX
on each cover clearly identifies the locations of the
ISOFIX anchors. The ISOFIX anchor points are located under the
covers, labelled as shown, at the bottom of the rear
seat cushions. To access an ISOFIX anchor point
insert your finger into the cover and pull the cover
off.
CAUTION
Store the loose ISOFIX covers to avoid losing
and damaging them. For example, in the console
box (see “Storage” in the “2. Instruments and
controls” section).ISOFIX child restraint anchor
attachments
ISOFIX and i-Size child restraints include two rigid
attachments that can be connected to two anchors
located in the seat. With this system, you do not
have to use
avehicle seat belt to secure the child
restraint. Check your child restraint for alabel stat-
ing that it is compatible with the ISOFIX or i-Size
child restraints. This information may also be in the
instructions provided by the child restraint manufac-
turer.
ISOFIX and i-Size child restraints generally require the use of atop tether strap or other anti-rotation
devices such as support legs. When installing
ISOFIX or i-Size child restraints, carefully read and
follow the instructions in this manual and those sup-
plied with the child restraints. (See “Child restraint
anchorage (where fitted)” later in this section.) NP A1524
