Supplemental side-impa\bt air bag system (if
equipped)
SSS0978
The supplemental side-impa\bt air bag is lo\bated at the
outside of the front seats’ seatba\b\fs.
The supplemental side-impa\bt air bag system is
designed to inflate in higher severity side \bollisions, although it may inflate if the for\bes in another type of
\bollision are similar to those of a higher severity side
impa\bt. It may not inflate in \bertain side \bollisions.
Vehi\ble damage (or la\b\f of it) is not always an
indi\bation of proper supplemental side-impa\bt air bag
system operation.
Supplemental \burtain side-impa\bt air bag
system (if equipped)
The supplemental \burtain side-impa\bt air bag is
lo\bated at the roof rails.
The supplemental \burtain side-impa\bt air bag system is
designed to inflate in higher severity side \bollisions,
although it may inflate if the for\bes in another type of
\bollision are similar to those of a higher severity side
impa\bt. It may not inflate in \bertain side \bollisions.
Vehi\ble damage (or la\b\f of it) is not always an
indi\bation of proper supplemental \burtain side-impa\bt
air bag system operation.
PRE-TENSIONER SEAT BELT SYSTEM (if
equipped)
WARNING:
.
The pre-tensioner seat belt cannot be re-
used after activation. It must be replaced
together with the retractor and buckle as a
unit.
. If the vehicle becomes involved in a collision
but the pre-tensioner is not activated, be
sure to have the pre-tensioner system
checked and, if necessary, replaced by a
RENAULT dealer.
. No unauthorized changes should be made
to any components or wiring of the pre-
tensioner seat belt system. This is to prevent
accidental activation of the pre-tensioner seat belt or damage to the pre-tensioner
seat belt system.
. Work around or on the pre-tensioner seat
belt system should be done by a RENAULT
dealer. The SRS wiring should not be
modified or disconnected. Unauthorized
electrical test equipment and probing de-
vices should not be used on the pre-
tensioner seat belt system.
. If you need to dispose of the pre-tensioner
seat belt system, or scrap the vehicle,
contact a RENAULT dealer. Correct pre-
tensioner disposal procedures are set forth
in the appropriate RENAULT Service Manual.
Incorrect disposal procedures could cause
personal injury.
The pre-tensioner seat belt system may a\btivate with
the supplemental air bag system in \bertain types of
\bollisions.
Wor\fing with the seat belt retra\btor, it helps tighten the
seat belt when the vehi\ble be\bomes involved in \bertain
types of \bollisions, helping to restrain front seat
o\b\bupants.
The pre-tensioner is en\based with the front seat belt’s
retra\btor and an\bhor. These seat belts are used the
same as \bonventional seat belts.
When the pre-tensioner seat belt a\btivates, a fairly loud
noise may be heard, followed by the release of smo\fe.
This smo\fe is not harmful and does not indi\bate a fire.
Care should be ta\fen not to inhale it, as it may \bause
irritation and \bho\fing. Those with a history of a
breathing \bondition should get fresh air promptly.

Radio data system (RDS)
Alternative Frequency (AF):
.The A\f fun\btion operates in the \fM (radio) and CD
modes.
. When the A\f mode is set to “ON” in the user
setup menu mode, the A\f indi\bator illuminates.
\for a\btivation or dea\btivation, use the MENU button.
(Details are explained later in this se\btion.)
. Automatic switching function
This fun\btion \bompares the strengths of the
signals of all the stations on the A\f list and
sele\bts the station with the optimum re\beption
\bonditions.
. Program Information (PI) search
Program Information (PI) sear\bh begins automati-
\bally if no suitable station is found with the above
automati\b swit\bhing fun\btion. The PI sear\bh
fun\btion \bhe\bks ea\bh RDS station with the same
PI \bode. During this time the sound is muted and
“PI SEARCH” is displayed. The PI sear\bh opera-
tion stops when a suitable station is found. If no
station is found on\be all the frequen\bies have been
sear\bhed, the radio returns to the previous
frequen\by.
. Enhanced Other Network (EON) data update
(This function also operates when the AF
mode is off.)
When EON data is being re\beived, this enables
automati\b retuning of other preset stations on the
same network. Also, network linked servi\bes \ban
be used. The EON indi\bator turns on during the
re\beption of RDS EON stations in the \fM mode. RDS functions:
.
Programme Service (PS) function (station
name display function)
When an RDS station is tuned in with seek or
manual tuning, the RDS data is re\beived and the
Program Servi\be (PS) name is displayed.
. Emergency broadcast interrupt function
(ALARM INTERRUPTION —EBU SPEC FOR
INFO)
When the radio re\beives PTY \bode 31 (an
emergen\by broad\bast \bode) , the sound is inter-
rupted, the emergen\by broad\bast is heard, and
“PTY31 ALARM” is displayed. The volume level at
this time is the same as that for traffi\b announ\be-
ments. On\be the emergen\by broad\bast is finished,
the unit immediately returns to the previous
sour\be.
. REG (Regional) mode
Some lo\bal radio stations are linked together
a\b\bording to their region be\bause they only offer
limited \boverage due to their limited number of
transmitters. If the signal from one station be-
\bomes weak while you are driving around, RDS
mode will swit\bh to another lo\bal station in the
region with a stronger signal.
When the REG mode is a\btivated in the \fM band
and the radio re\beiver is tuned to a lo\bal radio
station, it will keep re\beiving this radio station
without swit\bhing to another lo\bal station. \for
a\btivation or dea\btivation, use the MENU button.
(Details are explained later in this se\btion.) . Traffic Announcement (TA):
.
The TA fun\btion operates in the \fM and CD
modes.
. The TA mode is turned on or off when the TA/
NEWS button is pushed for less than 2 se\bonds.
. The TA mode operates regardless of whether the
A\f mode is on or off.
. “TA ON” is displayed when the TA mode is turned
on, and the TA indi\bator turns on. “TA O\f\f” is
displayed when the TA mode is turned off, and the
TA indi\bator turns off.
The following fun\btions operate when the TA mode is
on:
. Traffic announcement interrupt function
When a traffi\b announ\bement is re\beived, the
announ\bement is tuned in and the volume
in\breases to the set level.
On\be the traffi\b announ\bement is finished, the unit
returns to the sour\be whi\bh was set before the
traffi\b announ\bement started, and the volume
returns to the previous level. \for EON stations,
the radio is interrupted by another EON station
with traffi\b announ\bements.
The traffi\b announ\bement interrupt mode is
\ban\belled if the TA/NEWS button is pushed
during a traffi\b announ\bement. The TA mode
returns to the standby mode and the audio unit
returns to the previous sour\be.
News mode
When the NEWS button is pushed or the TA/NEWS
button is pushed for longer than 2 se\bonds in the \fM
mode, the news fun\btion is a\btivated. “NEWS” is
