SIDE RESTRAINT SYSTEMS
Side air bags
These are air bags fitted to each
front seat and, depending on the
vehicle, the rear seats. They are
triggered at the side of the seat (door
side) to protect the passengers from
violent side impacts.
The air bag operates
through the slits in the
seatbacks (door side):
never put any objects in
the slits.
Curtain air bags
These are air bags mounted in the
side of the vehicle's headlining.
They are triggered along the front
and rear side windows to protect
the passengers in case of violent
side impact.
The markings 1 on the windscreen
will remind you of the presence of
this equipment.
Warnings concerning the
side air bag
• Fitting seat covers: Seats
equipped with an air
bag require special covers
specifically designed for your
vehicle. Consult your Renault
Dealer to find out if these covers
may be purchased from Renault
outlets. The use of any covers
other than those designed for
your vehicle (and including
those designed for another
vehicle) may affect the operation
of these air bags and reduce your
protection.
• Do not place any accessories,
objects or even animals between
the seat back, the door and the
internal fittings. This may
prevent the air bag from
operating correctly or cause
injury if the air bag is deployed.
• No work or modification
whatsoever may be carried out
on the internal fittings, except by
qualified Renault Network
personnel.
