CHILD SAFETY
(continued)
The right choice
The safety of your children is also
your responsibility.
To ensure that your child has the
maximum possible protection, we
recommend that you use seats
approved by the
Network.
Restraint systems for all the categories
are available. These systems have
been developed in consultation with
the manufacturers and have been
tested in RENAULT vehicles.
Contact your RENAULT Dealer and
ask him to help you install it.
To avoid any risk to your safety, we recommend that you use
RENAULT approved accessories because they are designed for your
vehicle and are the only accessories for which RENAULT will
provide a warranty.

A child's neck is very susceptible to
injury up to the age of two. In a
front-facing seat there is a risk that
the child will sustain neck injuries
in the event of a frontal impact.
RENAULT therefore recommends a
rear-facing seat with a harness that
gives all-round protection (figure 1).

Category 1 (9 to 18 kg)
Between the ages of 2 and 4, a
child's pelvis is not fully developed.
Restraints using
three-point belts are not adequate
and there is a risk that the child will
sustain abdominal injuries in the
event of a frontal impact. It is
therefore advisable
rear-facing seats (figure 1), bucket-
type seats (figure 2) or seats with
harnesses.
