Electric windows
These systems operate:
– with the engine running;
– with the ignition off until one of the front doors is opened (limited to ap-
proximately 12 minutes).
– with the engine off, front doors closed, after pressing the start
button.
Press the window switch down or pull it
up to lower or raise the window to the
desired height: the rear windows do not
open fully.
Safety of rear occupants
The driver can prevent operation of the rear electric windows by pressin\
g
switch 4. A confirmation message is displayed on the instrument panel.
Driver’s responsibility
Never leave your vehicle with the RENAULT card or key inside, and never leave
a child, adult who is not self-sufficient or a pet, even for a short while. They may
pose a risk to themselves or to others by starting the engine or activat\
ing equip-
ment (such as the gear lever or electric windows). If any part of the \
body becomes
trapped, reverse the direction of the window immediately by pressing the\
relevant
switch.
Risk of serious injury.
Avoid resting any objects against
a half-open window: there is a risk
that the electric window could be
damaged.
From the driver’s seat, use switch:
1 for the driver’s side;
2 for the front passenger side;
3 and 5 for the rear passenger win-
dows.
From the passenger seats, use
switch 6.

REAR HEADRESTS (1/2)
Position for using the central
headrest A
Raise the headrest as far as possible to
use it in the high position. Check that it
is correctly locked.
The headrest is a safety
component; check that it is
fitted and in the correct po-
sition. The top of the head-
rest should be as close as possible
to the top of the head.

seatbacks
Ensure that the front seats are far
enough forward.
Raise the side headrests to the highest
position and lower the central headrest
fully.
Depending on the vehicle, put the seat
belt in the belt guide 2 to avoid damag-
ing it, or buckle it its own unit. This will
prevent the seat belt becoming trapped

for use. In all cases, check that the seat
belts are operating correctly.
Pull the control 1 and lower the seat-
back A.
To replace the seatback, proceed in
the reverse order to removal.

out any adjustments when
the vehicle is not being
driven.

The configuration of the
two-seat bench with the
small seatback B pulled
down, does not allow the
central seat to be used as it would
be impossible to buckle the seat belt
(belt buckles inaccessible).
When refitting the seat-
back, make sure it is cor-
rectly locked in place.
If seat covers are fitted ,
make sure these do not prevent the
seatback latch from locking in.
Make sure that the seat belts are
positioned correctly.
Reposition the headrests.
