Renault Clio: General information
Renault Clio IV (2014-2019) Owners Manual / Getting to know your vehicle / Child safety / General information
Carrying children
Children, and adults, must be correctly seated and strapped in for all journeys.
The children being carried in your vehicle 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 finished growing. The seat belt alone would not provide suitable protection.
Use an approved child seat and ensure you use it correctly.
| To prevent the doors being opened, use the “Child safety” device (refer to the information on “Opening and closing the doors” in Section 1). |
| A collision at 30 mph
(50 km/h) is the same as falling
a distance of 10 metres. Transporting a child without a restraint is the equivalent of allowing him or her to play on a fourthfloor 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. |
| Driver’s responsibility
when parking or stopping
the vehicle
Never leave an animal,
child or adult who is not self-sufficient
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 temperature inside the passenger compartment increases very quickly. RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY. |
Using a child seat
The level of protection offered by the child seat depends on its ability to restrain 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 approved dealer to find out which seats are recommended for your vehicle.
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.
Set a good example by always fastening
your seat belt and teaching
your child:
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 unattended
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. 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, especially if asleep. |
