METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS
These are:
O
Seat belt pretensioners.
O
Force limiter.
O
Driver and front passenger air
bags.
These systems are provided to act
independently or together when the
car is subjected to a frontal impact.
Depending on the force of the
impact the system may engage:
- the seat belt;
- the buckle pretensioner (which
engages to correct seat belt play);
- pretensioners 1 and 2 , the front air
bag and the force limiter.
• Pretensioners
With the ignition switched on, if
there is a severe frontal impact and
depending on the force of the
impact, the system may engage:
- buckle
1 which instantly tightens
the seat belt;
- piston 2 on the seat which pulls
the belt back against the chest.
The pretensioners hold the seat
belt tight against the body and
thus increase its efficiency.
• Have the entire restraint
system checked following
an accident.
• No operations whatsoever are
permitted on any part of the
system
(electronic units,
wiring...) nor is reuse on any
other vehicle, even if identical.
• Only qualified Renault Network
personnel may work on the
pretensioner system; otherwise
the
system may trigger
accidentally and cause injury.
• Testing of the electric trigger
system may only be carried out
by a specially trained technician
using special equipment.
• When the vehicle is to be
scrapped, contact your Renault
Dealer
for disposal of the
pretensioner and air bag gas
generators.
