height adjustment RENAULT TALISMAN 2016 1.G Owners Manual

1.27
Always wear your seat belt when trav-
elling in your vehicle. You must also
comply with the legislation of the par-
ticular country you are in.
SEAT BELTS (1/3)
Seat belts which are incor-
rectly adjusted or twisted
may cause injuries in the
event of an accident.
Use one seat belt per person,
whether child or adult.
Even pregnant women should wear
a seat belt. In this case, ensure that
the lap belt is not exerting too much
pressure on the abdomen, but do
not allow any slack.
Before starting, first adjust your driv-
ing position, then ask all occupants
to adjust their seat belts to ensure
optimum protection.
Adjusting your driving
position
– Sit well back in your seat (having
first removed your coat or jacket).
This is essential to ensure your back
is positioned correctly;
– adjust the distance between the seat and the pedals. Your seat
should be as far back as possible
while still allowing you to depress
the clutch pedal fully. The seatback
should be adjusted so that your arms
are slightly bent when you hold the
steering wheel;
– adjust the position of your head- rest. For maximum safety, your head
must be as close as possible to the
headrest;
– adjust the height of the seat. This
adjustment allows you to select the
seat position which offers you the
best possible view;
– adjust the position of the steering
wheel.
Adjusting the seat belts
Sit with your back firmly against the
seatback.
Shoulder strap 1 should be as close as
possible to the base of the neck but not
on it.
Lap belt 2 should be worn flat over the
thighs and against the pelvis.
The belt should be worn so that it is
as close as possible to your body, ie.:
avoid wearing heavy clothing or keep-
ing bulky objects under the belts, etc.

vary depending on the outdoor light.
– manually: the brightness automati-
cally switches with the activation/de-
activation of the lights.
In both cases, the day mode varies
based on the outdoor brightness.
Good information visibility can be af-
fected by:
– the seat position;
– the presence of an object placed
on the opened display;
– the polarisation of some spectacle
lenses;
– extreme weather conditions (rain,
snow, very strong sunlight, etc.).
In the event of contradic-
tory information between
the instrument panel and
the head-up display/multi-
function screen, please refer to the
information displayed on the instru-
ment panel.
Do not manually force the opening/
closure of the head-up display.
