METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS(continued)
All the warnings below are given so
that, if the air bag is activated, it is
notobstructedinanywayandalso
to prevent the risk of serious
injuries caused by items which may
be dislodged when the air bag
inflates.Warnings concerning the driver’s air bag
•Do not modify either the steering wheel or the steering wheel boss.
• Do not cover the steering wheel boss.
• Do not attach any objects (pin, logo, clock, telephone support, etc.) to the
steering wheel boss.
• The steering wheelmust notbe removed (except by qualified personnel
within the Renault network).
• Do not sit too close to the steering wheel. If you sit with your arms slightly
bent (see information on “Adjusting your driving position” in section 1), it
will ensure that there is sufficient space for the air bag to inflate properly
and to be fully effective.
Warnings concerning the passenger air bag: location1
•Do not attach or affix with adhesive any objects (pin, logo, clock, telephone
support, etc.) on the dashboard near where the air bag is located.
• Do not place anything between the dashboard and the passenger (animal,
umbrella, walking stick, parcels, etc.).
• The passenger must not put his or her feet on the dashboard as there is a
risk that serious injuries may be sustained. As a general rule, keep all parts
of the body (knees, hands, heads, etc.) well away from the dashboard.
A REAR-FACING CHILD/BABY SEAT MUST NOT BE FITTED
TO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT IF THE VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED
WITH A PASSENGER AIR BAG.

CLOCK AND EXTERNAL TEMPERATURE(continued)
If the electrical supply is cut
(battery disconnected, feed wire
broken, etc.), the clock must be
reset.
We advise that these settings are
not made when driving.External temperature
indicator
This information must
never be used as a detector
for ice. In effect, ice formation is
related to exposure, local
hygrometry and temperature. The
external temperature alone is not
sufficient to detect ice.For vehicles fitted with the
navigation system, refer to the
handbook supplied for information
on the special features of this
equipment.

INTERIOR TRIM MAINTENANCE
Whatever type of stain is on the
trim, use soapy water (if necessary,
with warm water) based on:
• natural soap,
• washing up liquid (with one part
washing up liquid to 200 parts of
water).
Rinse off with a soft, damp cloth.
Special instructions
• Glass instrument panel(e.g.
instrument display, clock,
exterior temperature display,
radio display).
Use a soft cloth (or cotton wool).
If this does not clean the glass, use
a soft cloth which has been
slightly moistened with soapy
water and then wipe clean with a
soft, damp cloth.
Finally,carefullydry off with a
soft, dry cloth.
Cleaning products containing
alcohol are not to be used.• Seat belts
These must be kept clean.
Use products selected by our
Technical Department or warm
soapy water using a sponge and
dry off with a dry cloth.
Do not use cleaning agents or dyes.

BATTERY(breakdown)
In the event of an incident
Isolate the battery by unscrewing
one of the terminals.
To avoid all risk of sparks
- Ensure the “accessories” are
disconnected before disconnecting
or reconnecting the battery.
- When charging, stop the charger
before connecting or disconnecting
the battery.
- Do not place metal objects on the
battery to avoid creating a short
circuit between the terminals.
Take care when moving
the battery as it contains
sulphuric acid which
must not come into
contact with the eyes or skin. If it
should, wash the affected area
with plenty of cold water.
Keep all flames, red-hot objects
and sparks away from the battery
as there is a risk of explosion.
Take care when working in the
engine compartment as the
cooling fan may cut in at any
time without warning if the
engine is hot.
Connecting a battery charger
Both battery leads must be
disconnected (with the engine
switched off).
Do not disconnect the battery when
the engine is running.
Follow the instructions for use
given by the manufacturer of the
battery charger you are using.
Only a well-charged and
well-maintained battery will have a
long and useful life and enable you
to start the vehicle’s engine
normally.
The battery must be kept clean and
dry.
Have the battery's charge status
checked regularly:
• especially if you use your vehicle
for short journeys or for frequent
driving in the town;
• When the external temperature
drops (in winter),the charge
decreases. In winter, only use
those electrical components
which are really necessary.• Finally, you should understand
that the charge decreases
naturally as a result of certain
permanent consumers such as the
clock, after sales accessories...
