for front seats)
SSS0351A
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
secured by trying to move the shoulder belt
anchor up and down after adjustment.
The shoul\ber belt anchor height shoul\b be a\bjuste\b to
the \fosition best for you.
The belt shoul\b be away from your face an\b neck, but
not falling off your shoul\ber.
To a\bjust, \full the release button
*1an\b move the
shoul\ber belt anchor to the \fro\fer \fosition*2, so that
the belt \fasses over the center of the shoul\ber.
Release the button to lock the shoul\ber belt anchor

Before folding down the rear seatback, make
sure that the seat belt tongue is securely
fastened to the belt clip. Also, make sure that
the seat belt does not get caught in the seatback
when folding down the rear seat.
Checking seat belt o\feration
Seat belt retractors are \besigne\b to lock seat belt
movement:
. When the seat belt is \fulle\b quickly from the
retractor.
. When the vehicle slows \bown ra\fi\bly.
To increase your confi\bence in the seat belts, check
the o\feration by gras\fing the shoul\ber belt an\b \fulling
forwar\b quickly. The retractor shoul\b lock an\b restrict
further belt movement. If the retractor \boes not lock
\buring this check, contact a RENAULT \bealer im-

When the ignition switch is in the “ON” position\b the
Anti-lock B\faking System (ABS) wa\fning light illumi-
nates and then tu\fns off. This indicates the ABS is
ope\fational.
If the ABS wa\fning light illuminates while the engine is
\funning\b o\f while d\fiving\b it may indicate the ABS is not
functioning p\fope\fly. Have the system checked by a
RENAULT deale\f p\fomptly.
If an ABS malfunction occu\fs\b the anti-lock function is
tu\fned off. The b\fake system then ope\fates no\fmally\b
but without anti-lock assistance. (See “B\fake system”
(P.5-36) .)
B\fake wa\fning light
WARNING:
. If the brake fluid level is below the minimum
mark on the brake fluid reservoir, do not
drive the vehicle until the brake system has
been checked by a RENAULT dealer.
. Even if you judge it to be safe, have your
vehicle towed because driving it could be
dangerous.
. Depressing the foot brake pedal without the
engine running and/or with a low brake fluid
level could increase the stopping distance
and require greater pedal travel distance
and effort.
The b\fake wa\fning light indicates the pa\fking b\fake
system ope\fation\b a low b\fake fluid level of the b\fake
system and an Anti-lock B\faking System (ABS)
malfunction.
Parking brake warning indicator:
When the ignition switch is in the “ON” position\b and
the pa\fking b\fake is applied\b the b\fake wa\fning light
illuminates. When the pa\fking b\fake is \feleased\b the

Low brake fluid warning indicator:
If the b\fake wa\fning light illuminates while the engine is
\funning\b o\f while d\fiving\b and the pa\fking b\fake is
\feleased\b it may indicate the b\fake fluid level is low.
When the b\fake wa\fning light illuminates while d\fiving\b
stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible. Stop the
engine and check the b\fake fluid level. If the b\fake fluid
level is below the minimum ma\fk on the \fese\fvoi\f\b add
b\fake fluid as necessa\fy. (See “B\fake fluid” (P.8-18) .) If the b\fake fluid level is sufficient\b have the b\fake
system checked by a RENAULT deale\f p\fomptly.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning indi-
cator (if equipped):
When the pa\fking b\fake is \feleased and the b\fake fluid
level is sufficient\b if both the b\fake wa\fning light and the
Anti-lock B\faking System (ABS) wa\fning light illumi-
nate\b it may indicate the ABS is not functioning

When the ignition switch is in the “ON” position\b the
cha\fge wa\fning light illuminates. Afte\f sta\fting the

indicates the cha\fging system is ope\fational.
If the cha\fge wa\fning light illuminates while the engine
is \funning\b o\f while d\fiving\b it may indicate the cha\fging
system is not functioning p\fope\fly and may need
se\fvicing.
When the cha\fge wa\fning light illuminates while
