SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT
SYSTEM (SRS)
&RQGLWLRQ

1-28Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
WARNING:
.The supplemental side-impact air bags and
supplemental curtain side-impact air bags
ordinarily will not inflate in the event of a
front impact, rear impact, rollover, or lower
severity side collision. Always wear the seat
belts to help reduce the risk or severity of
injury in accidents.
. The seat belts and the supplemental side-
impact air bags and supplemental curtain
side-impact air bags are most effective when
you are sitting well back and upright in the
seat. The supplemental side-impact air bags
and supplemental curtain side-impact air
bags inflate with great force. If you and your
passengers are unrestrained, leaning for-
ward, sitting sideways, or out of position in
any way, you and your passengers are at
greater risk of injury or death in an accident.
. Do not allow anyone to place their hands,
legs, or face near the supplemental side-
impact air bags and supplemental curtain
side-impact air bags on the sides of the
seatback of the front seats or near the side
roof rails. Do not allow anyone sitting in the
front seats or rear outboard seats to extend
their hands out of the windows or lean
against the doors. Some examples of dan-
gerous riding positions are shown in the
illustrations.
. When sitting in the rear seats, do not hold
onto the seatback of the front seats. If the
supplemental side-impact air bags and sup-
plemental curtain side-impact air bags in-
flate, you may be seriously injured. Be
especially careful with children, who should always be properly restrained.
. Do not use seat covers on the front seat-
backs. They may interfere with the supple-
mental side-impact air bag inflations.
Pre-tensioner seat belt system (if e\fuipped\b
The pre-tensioner seat belt system may activate with
the supplemental air bag system in certain types of
collisions.
Working with the seat belt retractor and anchor, it
helps tighten the seat belt the instant the vehicle
becomes involved in certain types of collisions, helping
to restrain front seat occupants. (See “Pre-tensioner
seat belt system” (P.1-31\b .\b
Air bag warning label (if e\fuipped\b
SSS1029
SRS air bag:
The warning label
*1is located on the surface of the
passenger’s sun visor. SRS front-impact passenger air bag:
The warning label
*2(if e\fuipped\b is located on the
side of the passenger’s side instrument panel.
This label warns you not to fit a rear-facing child
restraint system on the front passenger seat as such a
restraint system used in this position could cause
serious injury to the infant in case of air bag
deployment during a collision.
In vehicles e\fuipped with a front-impact passenger air
bag system, use a rear-facing child restraint system
only on the rear seats. “Extreme Hazard! Do not use a
rearward facing child restraint on a seat protected by
an airbag in front of it!"
When installing a child restraint system in your vehicle,
always follow the child restraint system manufacturer’s
instructions for installation.
For additional information, see “Child restraints” (P.1-
13\b .
SRS air bag warning light

The SRS air bag warning light, displayingin the

related wiring.
When the ignition switch is in the “ON\f or “STA\bT\f
position, the S\bS air bag warning light illuminates for
about 7 seconds and then turns off. This indicates that
the S\bS air bag systems are operational.
If any of the following conditions occur, the air bag
and/or pre-tensioner seat belt systems need servicing:
.The S\bS air bag warning light remains on after
approximately 7 seconds.
. The S\bS air bag warning light flashes intermit-
tently.
. The S\bS air bag warning light does not illuminate
at all.
Under these conditions, the air bag and/or pre-
tensioner seat belt systems may not operate properly.
They must be checked and repaired. Contact a
\bENAULT dealer immediately.SUPPLEMENTAL AI\b BAG SYSTEMS

jectiles and cause injury if a supplemental
air bag inflates.
. Immediately after inflation, several supple-
mental air bag system components will be
hot. Do not touch them: you may severely
burn yourself.
. No unauthorized changes should be made
to any components or wiring of the supple-
mental air bag systems. This is to prevent
accidental inflation of the supplemental air
bags or damage to the supplemental air bag
systems.
. Do not make unauthorized changes to your
vehicle’s electrical system, suspension sys-
tem or front end structure. This could affect
proper operation of the supplemental air
bag systems.
. Tampering with the supplemental air bag
systems may result in serious personal
injury. Tampering includes changes to the
steering wheel by placing materials over the
steering wheel pad and above, and by
installing additional trim materials around
the supplemental air bag systems.
. Work around and on the supplemental air
bag systems 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 supple-
mental air bag systems.
. The SRS wiring harness connectors are
yellow and/or orange for easy identification.
When the air bags inflate, a fairl\f loud noise \ba\f be
heard, followed b\f the release of s\boke. This s\boke is
not har\bful and does not indicate a fire. Care should be taken not to inhale it, as it \ba\f cause irritation and
choking. Those with a histor\f of a breathing condition
should get fresh air pro\bptl\f.
Supple\bental front-i\bpact air bag s\fste\b
The driver’s supple\bental front-i\bpact air bag is
located at the center of the steering wheel. The
passenger’s supple\bental front-i\bpact air bag (if
equipped) is located at the instru\bent panel above
the glove box.
The supple\bental front-i\bpact air bag s\fste\b is
designed to inflate in higher severit\f frontal collisions,
although it \ba\f inflate if the forces in another t\fpe of
collision are si\bilar to those of a higher severit\f frontal
i\bpact. It \ba\f not inflate in certain frontal collisions.
Vehicle da\bage (or lack of it) is not alwa\fs an
indication of proper supple\bental front-i\bpact air
bag s\fste\b operation.
Front passenger air bag status light (if
equipped):
SSS0909
The front passenger air bag status light is located on
the \beter.
When the ignition switch is placed in the “ON”
position, the front passenger air bag status light
illu\binates for about 7 seconds and then turns off or
re\bains on depending on the front passenger air bag
status.
.
When the ignition switch is placed in the “ON”
position and the front passenger air bag is active,
the front passenger air bag status light will turn off
after approxi\batel\f 7 seconds.
. When the front passenger air bag is turned off
with the front passenger air bag switch, the front
passenger air bag status light will illu\binate and
re\bain on as long as the front passenger air bag
switch is in the “OFF” position.
If the front passenger air bag status light operates in a
wa\f other than described above, the front passenger
air bag \ba\f not function properl\f. Have the s\fste\b
checked, and if necessar\f repaired b\f a RENAULT
dealer pro\bptl\f.
Front passenger air bag switch (if equipped):

The front passenger air bag can be turned off with the
front passenger air bag switch*Alocated inside of
the glove box.
To turn off the front passenger air bag:
1. Place the ignition switch in the “OFF” position.
