Welcome to your new vehicle
The descriptions of the models given in this handbook are based on the t\
echnical specifications at the time of writing. This hand-
book covers all items of equipment (both standard and optional) available for these models but whether or not these are
fitted to the vehicle depends on the version, options selected and the c\
ountry where the vehicle is sold.
This handbook may also contain information about items of equipment to b\
e introduced later in the model year.
Throughout the manual, the “approved Dealer” is your RENAULT Dealer.
Enjoy driving your new vehicle. This driver’s handbook contains the information necessary:
– for you to familiarise yourself with your vehicle, to use it to its best\
advantage and to benefit fully from the all the func tions and
the technical developments it incorporates.
– to ensure that it always gives the best performance by following the sim\
ple, but comprehensive advice concerning regular main -
tenance.
– to enable you to deal quickly with minor faults not requiring specialist\
attention.
It is well worth taking a few minutes to read this handbook to familiari\
se yourself with the information and guidelines it cont ains
about the vehicle and its functions and new features. If certain points \
are still unclear, our Network technicians will be only too
pleased to provide you with any additional information.
To help you, you will find the following symbols:
 and  These appear in the vehicle and indicate that you should consult the man\
ual for detailed information and/or
limits on operations with respect to your vehicle’s equipment.

AUTOMATIC LOCKING WHEN DRIVING (RAID)
Operating principle
When the engine is started, the system
automatically locks the doors when the
vehicle reaches a speed of approxi-
mately 4 mph (7 km/h).
Operating faults
If you notice an operating fault (auto-
matic locking impossible), first check
that all doors are correctly locked. If
they are correctly locked and the fault
is still present, contact an approved
Dealer.
Also make sure that locking has not
been inadvertently deactivated.
If necessary, refer to the activation pro-
cedure.

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.

1.21
FRONT SEATS (3/3)
Version with front bench seat
for two
The seatbacks can be folded down (in

1.33
The air bag is designed to complement the action of the seat belt. Both \
the air bags and seat belts are integral parts of the same protection
system. It is therefore essential to wear seat belts at all times. If se\
at belts
are not worn, the occupants are exposed to the risk of serious injury in\

the event of an accident. It may also increase the risk of minor superfi\
cial injuries
occurring when the air bag is deployed, although such minor injuries are\
always
possible with air bags.
If the vehicle should overturn or suffer a rear impact, however severe, the pre-
tensioners and air bags are not always triggered. Impacts to the undersi\
de of the
vehicle, eg. from pavements, potholes or stones, can all trigger these s\
ystems.
– No work or modification whatsoever may be carried out on any part of the air
bag system (air bags, pretensioners, computer, wiring harness, etc.), except
by qualified personnel from an approved Dealer.
– To ensure that the system is in good working order and to avoid accidenta\
l trig- gering of the system which may cause injury, only qualified Network personnel
may work on the air bag system.
– As a safety precaution, have the air bag system checked if your vehicle \
has been involved in an accident, or is stolen or broken into.
– When selling or lending the vehicle, inform the user of these points and\
hand over this handbook with the vehicle.
– When scrapping your vehicle, contact your approved Dealer for disposal o\
f the gas generator(s).
ADDITIONAL METHODS OF RESTRAINT
Operating faults
Warning light 1 will light up on the in-
strument panel when the ignition is
turned on and then go out after a few
seconds.
If it does not come on when the ignition
is switched on, or if it comes on when
the engine is running, there is a fault
with the system (air bags, pretension-
ers, etc.) in the front and/or rear seats.
Contact your approved dealer as soon
as possible. Your protection will be re-
duced until this fault is rectified.

All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag is not obstructed in any
way when it is inflated and also to prevent the risk of serious injuries caused
by items which may be dislodged when the air bag inflates.

1.48
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.
Operating faults
If the front passenger airbag activation/
deactivation system is faulty, child seats
must not be fitted to the front seat.
Allowing any other passenger to sit in
that seat is not recommended.
Contact your approved Dealer as soon
as possible.
Activation of the front
passenger air bag
You should reactivate the air bag 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.
To reactivate the airbag: with the ve-
hicle stopped and the ignition off,
press and turn the lock 1 to the ON po-
sition.

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.
