Operation

This system is only operational when

the ignition is switched on.
In a severe frontal impact, the airbags

inflate rapidly, cushioning the impact

of the driver's head and chest against

the steering wheel and of the front pas-

senger against the dashboard. The air

bags then deflate immediately so that

the passengers are not in any way hin-

dered from leaving the vehicle.

Operating faults

This warning light will light up

on the instrument panel when the igni-

tion is switched on and then go out after

a few seconds.
If it does not light up when the ignition

is switched on, or comes on when the

engine is running, there is a fault in the

system.
Contact your approved Dealer as soon

as possible.
Your protection will be reduced until this

fault is rectified.

(6/6)

Warnings concerning the driver’s airbag

– Do not modify the steering wheel or the steering wheel boss.
– Do not cover the steering wheel boss under any circumstances.

–  Do not attach any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the steering wheel boss.
–  The steering wheel must not be removed (except by qualified personnel from our Network).
–  Do not sit too close to the steering wheel: adopt a driving position whereby your arms are slightly folded

➥

1.41. This will

allow sufficient space for the airbag to deploy correctly and be fully effective.

Warnings concerning the passenger airbag

–  Do not attach or glue any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the dashboard on or near the airbag.
–  Do not place anything between the dashboard and the passenger (pet, umbrella, walking stick, parcels, etc.).
–  The passenger must not put his or her feet on the dashboard or seat as there is a risk that serious injuries may occur. In

general, parts of the body should be kept away from the dashboard (knees, hands, head, etc.).

– The devices in addition to the front passenger seat belt should be reactivated as soon as a child seat is removed, to ensure

the protection of the passenger in the event of an impact.

A REAR-FACING CHILD SEAT MUST NOT BE FITTED TO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT UNLESS THE

RESTRAINT SYSTEMS IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEATBELT ARE DEACTIVATED

➥

1.71.

Warnings concerning the anti-submarining

airbag

Do not let a child under the age of 12 sit in this seat. When triggered, the anti-submarining airbag may project objects left on

the seat base with a great deal of force.

Risk of serious injury.

All of the warnings below are given so that the airbag

is not obstructed in any way when it is inflated and also to prevent

the risk of serious injuries caused by items which may be dislodged when it inflates.

an acceptable level.

– Have the entire restraint

system checked following

an accident.

– No operation whatsoever

is permitted on any part of the

system (airbags, electronic units,

wiring) and the system compo-

nents must not be reused on any

other vehicle, even if identical.

– Only qualified personnel from our

SIDE PROTECTION DEVICES

Warning relating to the side

airbag

–

Fitting seat covers:

seats equipped with an airbag require covers spe-

cifically designed for your vehicle. Contact an approved dealer to find

out if these covers are available. The use of any covers other than those

designed for your vehicle (including those designed for another vehicle) may

affect the operation of the airbags and reduce your protection.

– Do not place any accessories, objects or even pets between the seatback, the

door and the internal fittings. Do not cover the seatback with objects such as

clothes or accessories. This may prevent the airbag from operating correctly or

cause injury when the airbag is deployed.

– No work or modification whatsoever may be carried out on the seat or internal

fittings, except by qualified personnel from an approved dealer.

– The space between the seatback of the rear bench seat and the trim is the

area of airbag operation: no objects must be placed here.

Side

Airbags

This airbag is fitted to the front seats,

activated at the sides of the seats (door

side) to protect the occupants in the

event of a severe side impact.

Depending on the vehicle, a mark-

ing on the windscreen informs you

of the presence of additional means

of restraint (airbags, pretensioners,

etc.) in the passenger compartment.

Dispositifs de retenue complémentaire (X10 - Renault)

ADDITIONAL METHODS OF RESTRAINT

The airbag is designed to complement the action of the seat belt. Both the airbag and the seat belt are integral parts

of the same protection system. It is therefore essential to wear seat belts at all times. If seat belts are not worn, the oc-

cupants are exposed to the risk of serious injury in the event of an accident. It may also increase the risk of minor su-

perficial injuries occurring when the airbag is deployed, although such minor injuries are always possible with airbags.

If the vehicle should overturn or suffer a rear impact, however severe, the pretensioners and airbags are not always triggered.

Shocks to the underbody of the vehicle, from pavements, potholes, stones etc. can all trigger these systems.
– Work and modifications on the complete airbag system (airbags, pretensioners, ECU, wiring harness, etc.), are

strictly pro-

hibited

(except by qualified Network personnel).

– To ensure that the system is in good working order and to avoid accidental triggering of the system which may cause injury,

only qualified Network personnel may work on the airbag system.

– As a safety precaution, have the airbag system checked if your vehicle has been involved in an accident, or is stolen or

broken into.

– When selling or lending the vehicle, inform the user of these points and hand over this driver’s handbook with the vehicle.
– When scrapping your vehicle, contact your approved dealer for disposal of the gas generator(s).

All of the warnings below are given so that the airbag

is not obstructed in any way when it is inflated and also to prevent

the risk of serious injuries caused by items which may be dislodged when it inflates.

Child safety: general information

CHILD SAFETY: General information

(1/2)

Carrying children

Please ensure that you comply with the

legislation of your country.
Children, and adults, must be correctly

seated and strapped in for all journeys.

The children being carried in your vehi-

cle are your responsibility.
A child is not a miniature adult. Children

are at risk of specific injuries as their

muscles and bones have not yet fin-

ished growing. The seat belt alone

would not provide suitable protection.

Use an approved child seat and ensure

you use it correctly.

A collision at 30 mph (50

km/h) is the same as fall-

ing a distance of 10 metres.

Transporting a child without

a restraint is the equivalent of allow-

ing him or her to play on a fourth-

floor balcony without railings.
Never travel with a child held in your

arms. In the event of an accident,

you will not be able to keep hold of

the child, even if you yourself are

wearing a seat belt.

If your vehicle has been involved in

a road accident, replace the child

seat and have the seat belts and

ISOFIX anchorage points checked.

To prevent the doors being

opened, use the “Child lock”

feature.

➥

1.31.

Driver’s responsibility

when parking or stopping

the vehicle

Never leave an animal,

child or adult who is not self-suffi-

cient alone on your vehicle, even for

a short time.
They may pose a risk to themselves

or to others by starting the engine,

activating equipment such as the

electric windows or by locking the

doors.
Also, in hot and/or sunny weather,

please remember that the tempera-

ture inside the passenger compart-

ment increases very quickly.

RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS

INJURY.

1.57

ENG_UD80622_3

Sécurité enfants : généralités (X10 - Renault)

Before fitting a child seat, read the

manual and respect its instructions. If

you experience any difficulties during

installation, contact the manufacturer

of the equipment. Keep the instructions

with the seat.

CHILD SAFETY: General information

(2/2)

Set a good example by always fas-

tening your seat belt and teaching

your child:

– to strap themselves in correctly;

– to always get in and out of the car

at the kerb, away from busy traf-

fic.

Do not use a second-hand child

seat or one without an instruction

manual.
Check that there are no objects in

the vicinity of the child seat which

could impede its operation.

Never leave a child unat-

tended in the vehicle.
Check that your child is

always strapped in and that

the belt or safety harness used is

correctly set and adjusted. Avoid

wearing bulky clothing which could

cause the belts to slacken

➥

1.41.

Never let your child put their head or

arms out of the window.
Check that the child is in the correct

position for the entire journey, espe-

cially if asleep.

Using a child seat

The level of protection offered by the

child seat depends on its ability to re-

strain your child and on its installation.

Incorrect installation compromises the

protection it offers the child in the event

of harsh braking or an impact.
Before purchasing a child seat, check

that it complies with the regulations for

the country you are in and that it can

be fitted in your vehicle. Consult an ap-

proved dealer to find out which seats

are recommended for your vehicle.
The regulations on transporting children

are specific to each country. The use of

a child seat depends on the age and/or

the size and/or weight of the child.
For children who do not need to be

transported in a child seat, make sure

that the seat belt is correctly adjusted

and fastened.
In all cases, you must comply with the

regulations of the particular country you

are in.

Sécurité enfants : choix du siège enfant (X10 - Renault)

CHILD SAFETY: choosing a child seat

Rear-facing child seats

A baby’s head is, proportionally, heavier

than that of an adult and its neck is very

fragile. Transport the child in this po-

sition for as long as possible (until the

age of 2 at the very least). It supports

both the head and the neck.
Choose a bucket type seat for best side

protection and change it as soon as the

child’s head is higher than the shell.

Forward-facing child seats

Up to 18 kg or 4 years, the child may

travel on a forward-facing seat. Choose

your seat according the child’s size:

their head and abdomen are the areas

which must be most protected. A for-

ward-facing child seat which is firmly

attached to the vehicle will reduce the

risk of impact to the head. Ensure your

child travels in a forward-facing seat

with a harness for as long as their size

permits.
Choose a bucket type seat for optimum

side protection.

Booster cushions

From 15 kg or 4 years, the child can

travel using a booster seat, which will

enable the seat belt to be adapted

to suit his/her size and shape. The

booster seat cushion must be fitted with

guides to position the seat belt on the

child’s thighs rather than the stomach.

It is recommended that you use a seat-

back fitted with a belt strap guide which

can be adjusted in terms of height to

position the seat belt in the centre of the

shoulder. It must never rest on the neck

or on the arm.
Choose a bucket type seat for optimum

side protection.

Choosing a child seat mounting

CHILD SAFETY: choosing a child seat mounting

(1/3)

There are two ways of attaching child

seats: via the seat belt or using the

ISOFIX system.

The seat belt must never

be twisted or the tension

relieved. Never pass the

shoulder strap under the

arm or behind the back.

Check that the seat belt has not

been damaged by sharp edges.

If the seat belt does not operate nor-

mally, it will not protect the child.

Consult an approved dealer. Do not

use this seat until the seat belt has

been repaired.

Do not use the child seat

if it may unfasten the seat

belt restraining it: the base

of the seat must not rest on

the buckle and/or catch of the seat

belt.

Attachment via the seat belt

The seat belt must be adjusted to

ensure that it is effective in the event of

harsh braking or an impact.
Ensure that the strap paths indicated

by the child seat manufacturer are re-

spected.
Always check that the seat belt is cor-

rectly fastened by pulling it up, then

pulling it out fully whilst pressing on the

child seat.
Check that the seat is correctly held by

moving it from side to side and back

to front: the seat should remain firmly

fixed.
Check that the child seat has not been

installed at an angle and that it is not

resting against a window.

CHILD SAFETY: choosing a child seat mounting

(2/3)

The two rings

are located between

the seatback and the seat base and are
identified by the

marking.

No modifications may be

made to the component

parts of the restraint system

(ISOFIX seat belts, seats

and their mountings) originally fitted.

Before using an ISOFIX

child seat that you pur-

chased for another vehicle,

check that its installation is

authorised. Consult the list of ve-

hicles which can be fitted with the

seat from the equipment manufac-

turer.

Attachment using the ISOFIX

system

Authorised ISOFIX child seats are ap-

proved in accordance with regulation

ECE-R44 in one of the three following

scenarios:

– universal ISOFIX 3-point forward-

facing seat;

– semi-universal ISOFIX 2-point seat;

– specific.
For the latter two, check that your child

seat can be installed by consulting the

list of compatible vehicles.

Attach the child seat with the ISOFIX

locks, if these are provided. The ISOFIX

system allows quick, easy, safe fitting.
The ISOFIX system consists of 2 rings

and, in some cases, a third ring.

1.61

ENG_UD72624_2

Sécurité enfants : choix de la fixation du siège enfant (X10 - Renault)

The third ring is used to attach the

upper strap on some child seats: you

must

attach hook

to ring

for a rear

seat and ring

for a front seat.

CHILD SAFETY: choosing a child seat mounting

(3/3)

The child seat strap

must

be attached to the corre-

sponding ring.

Check that the seatback

of the forward-facing child

seat is in contact with the

seatback of the vehicle

seat. In this case, the child seat may

not always rest on the seat base of

the vehicle seat.

The ISOFIX anchorage points have been exclusively designed for child

seats with the ISOFIX system. Never fit a different type of child seat, seat

belt or other objects to these anchorage points.
Check that nothing is obstructing the anchorage points.

If your vehicle has been involved in a road accident, have the ISOFIX anchorage

points checked and replace your child seat.

Pull the belt so that the back of the child

seat comes into contact with the back

of the vehicle seat.

Note:

it is

essential

to use the rings

marked with the symbol

In the front seat

The laws concerning children travel-

ling in the front passenger seat differ in

every country. Consult the legislation in

force and follow the indications on the

diagram on the following page.
Before fitting a child seat in this seat (if

authorised):

– lower the seat belt as far as possible;

– move the seat as far back as possi-

ble;

– gently tilt the seatback away from

vertical (approximately 25°);

– on equipped vehicles, raise the seat

base as far as possible.

After installing the child seat, when this

is possible, you can move the vehi-

cle seat forward if necessary (so as to

leave enough space in the rear seats

for passengers or other child seats).

For a rear-facing child seat, do not let

it touch the dashboard or move it to the

furthest forward position.
Do not change these settings after the

child seat is installed.

RISK OF DEATH OR

SERIOUS INJURY:

before

fitting a rear-facing child

seat in this seat, make sure

that the airbag has been deacti-

vated

➥

1.71.

Fit the child seat in a rear

seat wherever possible.
Check that when installing

the child seat in the vehicle

it is not at risk of coming loose from

its base.
If you have to remove the headrest,

check that it is correctly stored so

that it does not come loose under

harsh braking or impact.
Always attach the child seat to the

vehicle even if it is not in use so that

it does not come loose under harsh

braking or impact.
