the belt against the body so that it is at
an acceptable level.

system checked following
an accident.
– No operation whatsoever
is permitted on any part of the
system (air bags, electronic con-
trol units, wiring) and the system
components must not be reused
on any other vehicle, even if iden-
tical.
– To avoid incorrect triggering of
the system which may cause
injury, only qualified RENAULT

on the pretensioner and air bag
system.
