METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (continued)
Side air bags A
This air bag may be fitted to the
front seats and is activated at the
sides of the seats (door side) to
protect the occupants in the event of
a severe side impact.
The air bag operates
through the slits in the
seatbacks (door side):
never put any objects in
the slits.
Curtain air bags B
These are air bags fitted along the
sides of the vehicle in the ceiling
and deploy along the front and rear
side windows to protect the
passengers in case of a 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 and the door. This
may prevent the air bag from
operating correctly or cause
injury if the air bag is deployed.
• No work o r modification
whatsoever may be performed on
the seat except by qualified
Renault network personnel.
