WARNING:
. Never allow anyone to ride in the luggage
area or on the rear seats when they are in
the fold-down position. Use of these areas
by passengers without proper restraints
could result in serious injury in an accident
or sudden stop.
. Do not fold down the rear seats when
occupants are in the rear seat area or any
luggage is on the rear seats.
. Properly secure all luggage to help prevent it
from sliding or shifting. Do not place lug-
gage higher than the seatbacks.
. When returning the seatbacks to the upright
position, be certain they are completely
secured in the latched position. If they are
not completely secured, passengers may be
injured in an accident or sudden stop.
. Head restraints should be adjusted properly
as they may provide significant protection
against whiplash injury. Always replace and
adjust them properly if they have been removed for any reason.
HEAD RESTRAINTS (if equipped)
SSS0\b87
WARNING:
Do not drive and/or ride in the vehicle with the
head restraint removed. This can be dangerous.
Head restraints should be adjusted properly as
they may provide significant protection against
injury in an accident. Check the height after
someone else uses the seat.
The pr\fper adjustment \ff the head restraint is as
illustrated.
Adjust the head restraint s\f that the head restraint’s
center is level with the center \ff the ears.

1-8Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
WARNING:
.Seatbelts are designed to bear upon the
bony structure of the body, and should be
worn low across the front of the pelvis or the
pelvis, chest and shoulders, as applicable;
wearing the lap section of the belt across
the abdominal area must be avoided. Ser-
ious injury may occur if a seat belt is not
worn properly.
. Position the lap belt as low and snug as
possible around the hips, not the waist. A
lap belt worn too high could increase the
risk of internal injuries in an accident.
. Do not allow more than one person to use
the same seat belt. Each belt assembly must
only be used by one occupant; it is danger-
ous to put a belt around a child being carried
on the occupant’s lap.
. Never carry more people in the vehicle than
there are seat belts.
. Never wear seat belts inside out. Belts
should not be worn with straps twisted.
Doing so may reduce their effectiveness.
. Seatbelts should be adjusted as firmly as
possible, consistent with comfort, to provide
the protection for which they have been
designed. A slack belt will greatly reduce the
protection afforded to the wearer.
. Every person who drives or rides in this
vehicle should use a seat belt at all times.
Children should be properly restrained in the
rear seat and, if appropriate, in a child
restraint system. .
Do not run the belt behind your back or
under your arm. Always route the shoulder
belt over your shoulder and across your
chest. The belt should be away from your
face and neck, but not falling off your
shoulder. Serious injury may occur if a seat
belt is not worn properly.
. No modifications or additions should be
made by the user which will either prevent
the seat belt adjusting devices from operat-
ing to remove slack, or prevent the seat belt
assembly from being adjusted to remove
slack.
. Care should be taken to avoid contamina-
tion of the webbing with polishes, oils and
chemicals, and particularly battery acid.
Cleaning may safely be carried out using
mild soap and water. The belt should be
replaced if webbing becomes frayed, con-
taminated or damaged.
. It is essential to replace the entire assembly
after it has been worn in a severe impact
even if damage to the assembly is not
obvious.
. All seat belt assemblies including retractors
and attaching hardware should be inspected
after any collision by a RENAULT dealer. It is
essential to replace the entire assembly
after it has been worn in a severe impact
even if damage to the assembly is not
obvious. RENAULT recommends that all seat
belt assemblies in use during a collision be
replaced unless the collision was minor and
the belts show no damage and continue to
operate properly. .
Seat belt assemblies not in use during a
collision should also be inspected and, when
necessary, replaced if either damage or
improper operation is noted.
CHILD SAFETY
WARNING:
.Infants and children need special protection.
The vehicle’s seat belts may not fit them
properly. The shoulder belt may come too
close to the face or neck. The lap belt may
not fit over their small hipbones. In an
accident, an improperly fitted seat belt could
cause serious or fatal injury.
. Always use an appropriate child restraint
system.
Child\fen need ad\blts to help p\fotect them. They need
to be p\fope\fly \fest\fained. The p\fope\f \fest\faint depends
on the child’s size.
Infants and small child\fen
SSS0099
RENAULT \fecommends that infants and small child\fen
be seated in a child \fest\faint system. Yo\b sho\bld

WARNING:
.
Child restraint anchorages are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by
correctly fitted child restraints. Under no
circumstances are they to be used for adult
seat belts, harnesses or for attaching other
items or equipment to the vehicle. Doing so
could damage the child restraint an-
chorages. The child restraint will not be
properly installed using the damaged an-
chorage, and a child could be seriously
injured or killed in a collision.
. The child restraint top tether strap may be
damaged by contact with the tonneau board
(if equipped) or items in the luggage area.
Remove the tonneau board from the vehicle
or secure it and any luggage. Your child
could be seriously injured or killed in a
collision if the top tether strap is damaged.

CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION USING
ISOFIX
WARNING:
.Attach ISOFIX child restraints only at the
specified locations. For the ISOFIX lower
anchor locations, see “ISOFIX child restraint
system” (P.1-17) . If a child restraint is not
secured properly, your child could be ser-
iously injured or killed in an accident.
. Do not install child restraints that require the
use of a top tether strap to seating positions
that do not have a top tether anchor.
. Do not secure a child restraint in the center
rear seating position using the ISOFIX lower
anchors. The child restraint will not be
secured properly.
. Inspect the lower anchors by inserting your
fingers into the lower anchor area and
feeling to make sure there are no obstruc-
tions over the ISOFIX anchors, such as seat
belt webbing or seat cushion material. The
child restraint will not be secured properly if
the ISOFIX anchors are obstructed.
. Child restraint anchorages are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by
correctly fitted child restraints. Under no
circumstance are they to be used for adult
seat belts, harnesses or for attaching other
items or equipment to the vehicle. Doing so
could damage the child restraint an-
chorages. The child restraint will not be
properly installed using the damaged an-
chorage, and a child could be seriously
injured or killed in a collision.
