PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT
USAGE
If you are wearing the seat belt properly adjusted
and sitting upright and well back in the seat, chances
of being injured or killed in an accident and/or the
severity of injury may be greatly reduced. RENAULT
strongly encourages you and all of your passengers
to buckle up every time you drive, even if your seat-
ing position includes the supplemental air bag sys-
tems. SSS0134AZ

WARNING
• Seat belts 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 abdomi-
nal area must be avoided. Serious injury may
occur if aseat belt is not worn properly. •
Position the lap belt as low and snug as pos-
sible around the hips, not the waist.
Alap belt
worn too high could increase the risk of inter-
nal 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 dangerous to
put
abelt around achild 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.
• Seat belts should be adjusted as firmly as
possible, consistent with comfort, to provide
the protection for which they have been de-
signed.
Aslack belt will greatly reduce the
protection afforded to the wearer.
• Every person who drives or rides in this ve-
hicle should use
aseat belt at all times. Chil-
dren should be in the rear seats and in an
appropriate restraint.
• Do not put 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 aseat 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 operating to re-
move slack, or prevent the seat belt assembly
from being adjusted to remove slack.
• Care should be taken to avoid contamination
of the webbing with polishes, oils and chemi-
cals, and particularly battery acid. Cleaning
may safely be carried out using mild soap and
water. The belt should be replaced if webbing
becomes frayed, contaminated or damaged.
• It is essential to replace the entire assembly
after it has been worn in
asevere 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 an approved dealer or
qualified workshop. 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 con-
tinue to operate properly. Seat belt assem-
blies not in use during
acollision should also
be inspected and, when necessary, replaced
if either damage or improper operation is
noted.
• Once the pre-tensioner seat belt (where fit-
ted) has activated, it cannot be reused. It must
be replaced together with the retractor. Con-
tact an approved dealer or qualified work-
shop. SSS0014Z

•
Removal and installation of the pre-tensioner
seat belt system (where fitted) components
should be done by an approved dealer or
qualified workshop.
CHILD SAFETY WARNING
• Infants and children need special protection.
The vehicle’s seat belts may not fit them prop- erly. 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 im-
properly fitted seat belt could cause serious
or fatal injury.
• Always use an appropriate child restraint sys-
tem.
Children need adults to help protect them. They
need to be properly restrained. The proper restraint
depends on the child’s size.
Infants and small children 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 the child, and always follow the manu-
facturer’s instructions for installation and use.
Large children WARNING
• Never allow children to stand or kneel on any
seats.
• Never allow children in the luggage areas
while the vehicle is moving.
Achild could be
seriously injured in an accident or sudden
stop.
Children who are too large for achild restraint sys-
tem should be seated and restrained by the seat
belts that are provided.
If the child’s seating position has ashoulder belt that
fits close to the face or neck, the use of abooster
seat (commercially available) may help overcome
this. The booster seat should raise the child so that the shoulder belt is properly positioned across the
top, middle portion of the shoulder and the lap belt
is low on the hips. The booster seat should also fit
the vehicle seat. Once the child has grown so that
the shoulder belt is no longer on or near the face or
neck of the child, use the shoulder belt without the
booster seat. In addition, there are many types of
child restraint systems available for larger children
that should be used for maximum protection. PREGNANT WOMEN
RENAULT recommends that pregnant women use
seat belts. The seat belt should be worn snug, and
always position the lap belt as low as possible
around the hips, not the waist. Place the shoulder
belt over your shoulder and across your chest. Never
run the lap/shoulder belt over your abdominal area.
Contact your doctor for specific recommendations.
INJURED PERSONS
RENAULT recommends that injured persons use
seat belts. Contact your doctor for specific recom-
mendations.

fitted) is identified by the

THREE-POINT TYPE SEAT BELTS
Fastening seat belts WARNING
The seatback should not be in
areclined position
any more than needed for comfort. Seat belts are
most effective when the passenger sits well back
and straight up in the seat.
1. Adjust the seat. (See “Manual seat adjustment
(where fitted)” earlier in this section.)
2. Slowly pull the seat belt out of the retractor and insert the tongue into the buckle until you hear
and feel the latch engage.
• The retractor is designed to lock during a
sudden stop or on impact.
Aslow pulling
motion permits the seat belt to move, and
allows you some freedom of movement in
the seat. •
If the seat belt cannot be pulled from its
fully retracted position, firmly pull the belt
and release it. Then smoothly pull the belt
out of the retractor.
3. Position the lap belt portion low and snug on the hips as shown.
4. Pull the shoulder belt portion toward the retrac- tor to take up extra slack. Be sure the shoulder
belt is routed over your shoulder and is snug
across your chest. Shoulder belt height adjustment (for
front seats) WARNING
• The shoulder belt anchor height should be
adjusted to the position best for you. Failure
to do so may reduce the effectiveness of the
entire restraint system and increase the
chance or severity of injury in an accident.
• The shoulder belt should rest on the middle
of the shoulder. It must not rest against the
neck.
• Be sure that the seat belt is not twisted in any
way.
• Be sure that the shoulder belt anchor is se-
cured by trying to move the shoulder belt an-
chor up and down after adjustment.
To adjust, pull on the release button ➀and move
the shoulder belt anchor to the proper position ➁,
so that the belt passes over the centre of the shoul- SSS0292Z

der. The belt should be away from your face and
neck, but not falling off your shoulder. Release the
button to lock the shoulder belt anchor into position.
Unfastening seat belts
Push the button on the buckle. The seat belt auto-
matically retracts.
Checking seat belt operation
Seat belt retractors are designed to lock seat belt
movement:
• When the seat belt is pulled quickly from the
retractor.
• When the vehicle slows down rapidly.
To increase your confidence in the seat belts, check
the operation by grasping the shoulder belt and pull-
ing forward quickly. The retractor should lock and
restrict further belt movement. If the retractor does
not lock during this check, contact an approved
dealer or qualified workshop immediately.
TWO-POINT TYPE SEAT BELTS (where fitted)
Fastening seat belts WARNING
Every person who drives or rides in this vehicle
should use aseat belt at all times. 1. Insert the tongue into the buckle with the

SEAT BELT MAINTENANCE
Periodically check that the seat belt and all the metal
components, such as buckles, tongues, retractors,
flexible wires and anchors, work properly. If loose
parts, deterioration, cuts or other damage on the
seat belt webbing is found, the entire seat belt as-
sembly should be replaced.
If dirt builds up in the shoulder belt guide of the seat
belt anchors, the seat belts may retract slowly. Wipe
the shoulder belt guide with aclean, dry cloth.
To clean the seat belt webbing, apply amild soap
solution or any solution recommended for cleaning
upholstery or carpet. Then wipe with acloth and
allow the seat belts to dry in the shade. Do not allow
the seat belts to retract until they are completely dry. PRECAUTIONS ON CHILD
RESTRAINT USAGE WARNING
• Infants and small children should never be
carried on your lap. It is not possible for even
the strongest adult to resist the forces of a
severe accident. The child could be crushed
between the adult and parts of the vehicle.
Also, it is dangerous to put aseat belt around
ac hild being carried on the occupant’s lap.
• Infants and children need special protection.
The vehicle’s seat belts may not fit them prop-
erly. The shoulder belt may come too close to
the face or neck. The lap belt may not fit over
their small hip bones. In an accident, an im-
properly fitting seat belt could cause serious
or fatal injury.
• Infants and small children should always be
placed in an appropriate child restraint sys- tem while riding in the vehicle. Failure to use
ac
hild restraint system can result in serious
injury or death.
• Child restraint systems specially designed for
infants and small children are available from
several manufacturers. When selecting any
child restraint systems, place your child in the
child restraint system and check the various
adjustments to be sure that the child restraint
system is compatible with your child. Always
follow the manufacturer’s instructions for in-
stallation and use.
• RENAULT recommends that the child restraint
system be installed in the rear seat (Double
Cab model). According to accident statistics,
children are safer when properly restrained in
the rear seat rather than in the front seat.
• Follow all of the child restraint system manu-
facturer’s instructions for installation and use.
When purchasing
achild restraint system, be
sure to select one which will fit your child and
vehicle. It may not be possible to properly in- stall some types of child restraint systems in
your vehicle.
• The direction of the child restraint, either
front-facing or rear-facing, depends on the
type of the child restraint and the size of the child. Refer to the child restraint manufactur-
er’s instructions for details.
• For
afront-facing child restraint system,
check to make sure the shoulder belt does
not fit close to child’s face or neck. If you SSS0099Z
CHILD RESTRAINTS
1-14 Safety —seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

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.
