Heated seats (depending on vehicle) With the engine running, turn control 2 to either position 1, 2 or 3 (depending on the temperature required). An indicator light on the instrument panel lights up once the front seat heating system is operating. The system, which has a thermostat, decides whether or not the heating is needed, according to the position selected. We would advise you not to recline the seatbacks too far to ensure that the effectiveness of the seat belts is not reduced. Nothing should be placed on the floor (area in front of driver) as such objects may slide under the pedal during braking manoeuvres, thus obstructing its use. 1.19 FRONT SEATS WITH ELECTRIC CONTROL with storage of settings Recalling a stored driving position It is possible to store three driving positions. A driving position includes the settings for the seat base and seatback of the driver’s seat.

When driving, it is not possible to recall a driving position. Storing your driving position – Adjust the seat using switches 4 and 5 (see previous page); – press one of buttons 1, 2 or 3 until a beep is heard: the driving position is stored; – to store other driving positions repeat this procedure with the other buttons. For safety reasons, carry out any adjustments when the vehicle is not being driven. 1.20 We would advise you not to recline the seatbacks too far to ensure that the effectiveness of the seat belts is not reduced. Nothing should be placed on the floor (area in front of driver) as such objects may slide under the pedal during braking manoeuvres, thus obstructing its use. Access to rear seats, three-door version 1 1 2 3 4 Manually controlled seats Lift handle 1 and slide the seat forward. To return the seat to its original position, bring the seatback back into position. Do not move handle 1 and handle 2 or switch 4 at the same time. Locking the seats When a person, an object or a child seat prevents the front seats from locking, perform the following operations: – ask all of the passengers to leave the vehicle and remove any bulky objects from the rear seats; – lock the seat(s) in the initial position again; – move the seat(s) forwards in order to create sufficient space; – ask the passengers to get back into the vehicle, and refit the child seat or objects on the rear seats. Electrically controlled seats Lift handle 1 and tilt the seatback completely: the seat moves forward. To return the seat to its original position, bring the seatback back up. The seat returns to its original position. Special note: if the seatback is tilted over the rear bench seat, only use control 3 to return it to the driving position. Never use handle 1 as it is not designed for this purpose: there is a risk of damage to the mechanism. Check that no object or person prevents the front seat from locking. If so, remove any obstacles behind the front seats. Adjust the seat to allow sufficient room in the rear. The rear occupants/objects should then return to the vehicle. Repeat the above until the seat is locked correctly. Risk of seat moving on its runners during vehicle acceleration or braking. 1.21 Seat belts (1/3) Always wear your seat belt when travelling in your vehicle. You must also comply with the legislation of the particular country you are in. Before starting, first adjust your driving position, then ask all occupants to adjust their seat belts to ensure optimum protection. Adjusting your driving position Make sure that the rear bench seat is locked in position correctly so that the rear seat belts will operate efficiently. Refer to the information on the “Rear bench seat” in Section 3. Incorrectly adjusted or twisted seat belts may cause injuries in the event of an accident. Use one seat belt per person, whether child or adult. Even pregnant women should wear a seat belt. In this case, ensure that the lap belt is not exerting too much pressure on the abdomen, but do not allow any slack. 1.22 – Sit well back in your seat (having first removed your coat or jacket). This is essential to ensure your back is positioned correctly; – adjust the distance between the seat and the pedals. Your seat should be as far back as possible while still allowing you to depress the clutch pedal fully. The seatback should be adjusted so that your arms are slightly bent when you hold the steering wheel; – adjust the position of your headrest. For maximum safety, your head must be as close as possible to the headrest; – adjust the height of the seat. This adjustment allows you to select the seat position which offers you the best possible view; – adjust the position of the steering wheel. 1 2 Adjusting the seat belts Sit with your back firmly against the seatback. Shoulder strap 1 should be as close as possible to the base of the neck but not on it. Lap belt 2 should be worn flat over the thighs and against the pelvis. The belt should be worn so that it is as close as possible to your body, i.e.: avoid wearing heavy clothing or keeping bulky objects under the belts, etc. Seat belts (2/3) ß Front seat belt reminder warning light This lights up on the central display when the engine is started then, if the driver’s or front passenger’s seat belt (if this seat is occupied) is not fastened and the vehicle has reached approximately 12 mph (20 km/h), it flashes and a bleep sounds for around 2 minutes. 1 4 3 4 Locking Unwind the belt slowly and smoothly and ensure that buckle 3 locks into catch 4 (check that it is locked by pulling on buckle 3). If the belt jams, allow it to return slightly before attempting to unwind it again. If your seat belt is completely jammed, pull slowly, but firmly, so that just over 3 cm unwinds. Allow it to return slightly before attempting to unwind it again. If there is still a problem, contact an approved dealer. 5 Note: an object placed on the passenger seat base may activate the warning light in some cases. Rear seat belt reminder (depending on vehicle) ß the warning light on the central display lights up accompanied by a message on the instrument panel indicating the number of seat belts buckled for approximately 30 seconds each time: – the vehicle is started; – a door is opened; – a rear seat belt is fastened or unfastened. Check that the rear passengers are wearing seat belts and that the number of seat belt shown as fastened corresponds to the number of rear bench seat places occupied. Adjusting the front seat belt height (depending on vehicle) Press button 5 to adjust the seat belt height so that shoulder strap 1 is worn as shown previously: – to lower the seat belt, press button 5 and lower the seat belt at the same time; – to raise the seat belt, press button 5 and raise the seat belt at the same time. Make sure that the seat belt is locked in position correctly after you have adjusted it. 1.23 SEAT BELTS (3/3) The following information applies to the vehicle’s front and rear seat belts. – No modification may be made to the component parts of the originally fitted restraint system: belts, seats and their mountings. For special operations (e.g. fitting child seats), contact an authorised dealer. – Do not use devices which allow any slack in the belts (e.g. clothes pegs, clips, etc.): a seat belt which is worn too loosely may cause injury in the event of an accident. 6 – Never wear the shoulder strap under your arm or behind your back. – Never use the same belt for more than one person and never hold a baby or child on your lap with your seat belt around them. – The belt should never be twisted. Unfastening Press button 6 and the seat belt will be rewound by the inertia reel. Guide the belt. Note: when driving, if a rear seat belt is unbuckled, the message “Rear seat belt unbuckled” appears on the instrument panel. 1.24 – Following an accident, have the seat belts checked and replaced if necessary. Always replace your seat belts as soon as they show any signs of wear. – Make sure that the buckle is inserted into the appropriate catch. – Ensure that no objects are placed in the area around the seat belt catch as they could prevent it from being properly secured. – When repositioning the rear bench seat, make sure that the seat belt is correctly positioned so that it can be used properly. – Make sure the seat belt catch is properly positioned (it should not be hidden away, crushed or flattened by people or objects). METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (1/4) Depending on the vehicle, they are composed of: – seat belt inertia reel pretensioners; – Have the entire restraint system checked following an accident. – No operation whatsoever is permitted on any part of the system (pretensioners, air bags, computers, wiring) and the system components must not be reused on any other vehicle, even if identical. – lap belt pretensioners; – chest-level load limiters; – anti-submarining air bags; – air bags for driver and front passenger. These systems are designed to act independently or together when the vehicle is subjected to a frontal impact. Depending on the severity of the impact, the system can trigger: – seat belt locking; – the seat belt inertia reel pretensioner (which engages to correct seat belt slack); – the low volume front air bag; – the lap seat belt pretensioners to hold the occupant in his seat; – the large volume front air bag. 1 2 Pretensioners The pretensioners hold the seat belt against the body, holding the occupant more securely against the seat, thus increasing the seat belt’s efficiency. In the event of a severe frontal impact and if the ignition is switched on, the system may engage the following depending on the force of the impact: – seat belt inertia reel pretensioner 1 which instantly retracts the seat belt; – To avoid incorrect triggering of the system which may cause injury, only qualified personnel from an approved dealer may work on the pretensioner and air bag system. – The electric trigger system may only be tested by a specially trained technician using special equipment. – When the vehicle is scrapped, contact an approved dealer for disposal of the pretensioner and air bag gas generators. – the lap pretensioner 2 on the front seats. 1.25 METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (2/4) Load limiter Above a certain severity of impact, this mechanism is used to limit the force of the belt against the body so that it is at an acceptable level. Anti-submarining air bag Located on each of the front seats, it deploys in order to prevent the occupant from sliding under the seat belt. Air bags for driver and front passenger Fitted to the driver and passenger side. Depending on the vehicle, the presence of this equipment is indicated by the word “Airbag” on the steering wheel, dashboard (air bag zone A) and a symbol on the lower section of the windscreen. A Each air bag system consists of: – an air bag and gas generator fitted on the steering wheel for the driver and in the dashboard for the front passenger; – an electronic unit for system monitoring which controls the gas generator electrical trigger system; – remote sensors; – a single warning light instrument panel. 1.26 å on the The air bag system uses pyrotechnic principles. This explains why, when the air bag inflates, it will generate heat, produce smoke (this does not mean that a fire is about to start) and make a noise upon detonation. In a situation where an air bag is required, it will inflate immediately and this may cause some minor, superficial grazing to the skin or other problems. METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (3/4) Operation This system is only operational when the ignition is switched on. In a severe frontal impact, the air bags inflate rapidly, cushioning the impact of the driver’s head and chest against the steering wheel and the front passenger against the dashboard. The air bags then deflate immediately so that the passengers are not in any way hindered from leaving the vehicle. Special feature of the front air bag After a violent impact, it has two deployment volumes and integrates a ventilation system: – small volume air bag, this is the first stage of operation; – large volume air bag, the air bag seams rip so that a larger volume of gas is released into the bag (for the most severe impacts). 1.27 METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (4/4) All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag 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 the air bag inflates. Warnings concerning the driver’s air bag – 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). – When driving, do not sit too close to the steering wheel. Sit with your arms slightly bent (see the information on “Adjusting your driving position” in Section 1). This will allow sufficient space for the air bag to deploy correctly and be fully effective. Warnings concerning the passenger air bag – Do not attach or glue any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the dashboard on or near the air bag. – 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 ADDITIONAL RESTRAINT SYSTEMS, I.E. THE PASSENGER AIR BAG, ARE DEACTIVATED. (refer to the information on “Child safety: deactivating/activating the front passenger air bag” in Section 1) Warnings concerning the anti-submarining air bag Do not let a child under the age of 12 sit in this seat. When triggered, the anti-submarining air bag may project objects left on the seat base with a great deal of force. Risk of serious injury. 1.28 Methods of restraint in addition to the rear seat belts Force limiter Above a certain severity of impact, this mechanism is used to limit the force of the belt against the body so that it is at an acceptable level. – Have the entire restraint system checked following an accident. – No operation whatsoever is permitted on any part of the system (air bags, electronic control units, wiring) and the system components must not be reused on any other vehicle, even if identical. – Only qualified personnel from our Network may work on the air bags; otherwise the system may trigger accidentally and cause injury. 1.29 Side protection devices Side air bags These air bags are fitted to the front seats and are activated at the sides of the seats (door side) to protect the occupants in the event of a severe side impact. Curtain air bags These are air bags fitted along the sides of the vehicle in the ceiling which trigger along the front and rear side windows to protect the passengers in case of a severe side impact. Warnings concerning the side air bag – Fitting seat covers: seats equipped with an air bag require covers specifically 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 (and including those designed for another vehicle) may affect the operation of the air bags 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 any items such as clothes or accessories. This may prevent the air bag from operating correctly or cause injury when the air bag 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 area between the rear bench seatback and the trim is the area of air bag operation: no objects must be placed here. 1.30 Additional methods of restraint All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag 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 the air bag inflates. The air bag is designed to complement the action of the seat belt. Both the air bags and seat belts 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 occupants are exposed to the risk of serious injury in the event of an accident. It may also increase the risk of minor superficial injuries occurring when the air bag is deployed, although such minor injuries are always possible with air bags. If the vehicle should overturn or suffer a rear impact, however severe, the pretensioners and air bags are not always triggered. Shocks to the underbody of the vehicle, e.g. from pavements, potholes or stones, can all trigger these systems. – No work or modification whatsoever may be carried out on any part of the air bag system (air bags, pretensioners, computer, wiring harness, etc.), except by qualified personnel from an approved dealer. – 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 air bag system. – As a safety precaution, have the air bag 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). 1 Operating faults Warning light 1 will light up on the instrument panel when the ignition is switched on and then go out after a few seconds. If it does not come on when the ignition is switched on, or if it comes on when the engine is running, there is a fault with the system (air bags, pretensioners, etc.) in the front and/or rear seats. Contact your approved dealer as soon as possible. Your protection will be reduced until this fault is rectified. 1.31 Child safety: General information (1/2) 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). 1.32 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. 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. 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. Child safety: General information (2/2) 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: – to strap themselves in correctly; – to always get in and out of the car at the kerb, away from busy traffic. 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. 1.33 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 position 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. 1.34 Forward-facing child seats The child’s head and abdomen need to be protected as a priority. A forward-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 or buckle for as long as their size permits. Choose a bucket type seat for optimum side protection.w 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 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 seatback 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. child safety: choosing a child seat mounting (1/2) There are two ways of attaching child seats: via the seat belt or using the ISOFIX system. 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 respected. Always check that the seat belt is correctly 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. 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. 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 normally, it will not protect the child. Consult an approved dealer. Do not use this seat until the seat belt has been repaired. No modifications may be made to the component parts of the restraint system (seat belts, ISOFIX, seats and their mountings) originally fitted. Attachment using the ISOFIX system Authorised ISOFIX child seats are approved in accordance with regulation ECE-R44 in one of the three following scenarios: – ISOFIX universal 3-point forwardfacing seat – ISOFIX semi-universal 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. Before using an ISOFIX child seat that you purchased for another vehicle, check that its installation is authorised. Consult the list of vehicles which can be fitted with the seat from the equipment manufacturer. 1.35 child safety: choosing a child seat mounting (2/2) 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. 1 2 The two rings 1 are located between the seatback and the seat base of the seat and are identified by a marking. To ensure your child seat can be easily fitted and locked on the rings 1, use access guides 2 on the child seat. 3 The third ring is used to attach the upper strap on some child seats. Pass the belt between the seatback and the rear parcel shelf (to remove the parcel shelf: refer to Section 3 “Parcel shelf”). Fix the hook on one of the rings 3 located in the luggage compartment (visible for three- and fivedoor versions; under the carpet and indicated with a marking on the Sport tourer version). Pull the belt so that the back of the child seat comes into contact with the vehicle seatback. 1.36 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. Child safety: fitting a child seat (1/11) Some seats are not suitable for fitting child seats. The diagram on the following page shows you how to attach a child seat. The types of child seats indicated may not be available. Before using a different child seat, check with the manufacturer that it can be fitted. 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. In the front seat The laws concerning children travelling 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 possible; – gently tilt the seatback away from vertical (approximately 25°); – on equipped vehicles, raise the seat base as far as possible. 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 position, check that the air bag has been deactivated (refer to the information on “Child safety: deactivating/activating the front passenger air bag” in Section 1). In the rear side seat A carrycot can be installed across the vehicle and will take up at least two seats. Position the child with his or her feet nearest the door. Push the vehicle seat fully forwards to install a rear-facing child seat, then push it back as far as possible without allowing it to make contact with the child seat. For the safety of the child in the forward-facing seat, do not move the seat in front back past the middle of the runner, do not tilt the seatback too far (maximum of 25°) and raise the seat as much as possible. Check that the forward-facing child seat is resting against the back of the vehicle seat and that the headrest of the vehicle is not obstructing its use. Ensure that the child seat or the child’s feet do not prevent the front seat from locking correctly. Refer to the information on the “Front seat” in Section 1. 1.37 Child safety: fitting a child seat (2/11) The table below summarises the information already shown in the diagram on the following pages, to ensure the applicable regulations are respected.

In all cases, replace them as soon as they begin to lose efficiency: approximately once a year. Before using the rear wiper, check that no object obstructs the travel of the blade. Do not use the wiper arm to open or close the tailgate. 1.83 Fuel tank (1/3) Fuel grade A Use a high-grade fuel that complies with the legislation in force in each country and which must conform to the specifications given on the label on the cover B. Refer to the information on “Engine specifications” in Section 6. B C Useable fuel tank capacity: 59 litres approximately. With the vehicle unlocked, to open the compartment B, place your finger into the recess C. Diesel versions It is essential to use diesel fuel that conforms with the information given on the label inside cover B. Petrol versions It is essential to use unleaded petrol. The octane rating (RON) must conform to the specifications on the label inside fuel filler flap B. Refer to the information on “Engine specifications” in Section 6. Valve A is integrated into the filler pipe. For details on filling the fuel tank, refer to the information on “Filling with fuel”. To close it, press on the fuel filler flap by hand, as far as it will go. Never press valve A with your fingers. Do not wash the filler area with a high pressure washer. 1.84 Vehicles running on ethanol-based fuel It is essential to use unleaded petrol or fuel containing a maximum of 85% ethanol (E85). In very cold conditions, it may be very difficult or even impossible to start the engine. To avoid this problem, use unleaded petrol or, on equipped vehicles, use the heater integrated in the engine: connect the special end of the extension piece supplied into the socket integrated into the radiator grille and the other end into a 220V socket for at least 6 hours before starting. Note: you may notice an increase in fuel consumption with this type of fuel Do not mix even small amounts of petrol (unleaded or E85) with diesel. Do not use ethanol-based fuel if your vehicle is not compatible with this fuel. Do not add additive to the fuel – otherwise you risk damaging the engine. Fuel tank (2/3) Filling with fuel With the ignition off, insert the nozzle to open valve A and insert it fully before turning it on to fill the fuel tank (risk of splashing). Keep the nozzle in this position throughout the entire filling operation. When the pump cuts out automatically at the end of the filling procedure, a maximum of two further filling attempts may be made, as there must be sufficient space in the fuel tank to allow for expansion. 1 Make sure that no water enters the fuel tank during filling. The valve A and its surround must remain clean. Petrol versions Using leaded petrol will damage the antipollution system and may lead to a loss of warranty. To ensure that the fuel tank is not filled with leaded petrol, the fuel tank filler neck contains a restrictor fitted with a foolproof system which only allows the nozzle for unleaded petrol to be used (at the pump). Persistent smell of fuel If you notice a persistent smell of fuel you should: – stop the vehicle as soon as traffic conditions allow and switch off the ignition; Vehicle fitted with the Stop and Start function To fill up with fuel, the engine must be stopped (and not on standby): stop the engine by pressing the engine stop button 1 (please refer to the information on “Starting and stopping the engine” in Section 2). – switch on the hazard warning lights and ask your passengers to leave the vehicle and to keep away from traffic; – contact an approved Dealer. 1.85 Fuel tank (3/3) Vehicles without priming bulb 2 2 Put the ignition key in “Ignition On” (M) position and wait a few minutes before starting. This will enable the fuel circuit to be primed. If the engine does not start, repeat the procedure. Running out of fuel on diesel versions Vehicles with priming bulb 2 After a breakdown caused by completely running out of fuel, the system must be reprimed before the engine is restarted: Fill the tank with at least 8 litres of diesel fuel. Press priming bulb 2 several times. The engine can now be restarted. If the engine does not start after several attempts, contact an approved Dealer. 1.86 No modifications whatsoever are permitted on any part of the fuel supply system (computers, wiring, fuel circuit, injector, protection covers, etc.) as this may be dangerous (such work must be undertaken by qualified Network personnel).

When driving, depending on the fuel grade used, it is possible that white smoke may be emitted. This is due to the exhaust particle filter being cleaned automatically, and does not affect the way the vehicle runs. Running out of fuel If the tank has been completely drained, the system must be reprimed after the tank is refilled: see information on the “fuel tank” in section 1 before restarting the engine. 2.10 Do not park the vehicle or run the engine in locations where combustible substances or materials such as grass or leaves can come into contact with the hot exhaust system. Gear lever/Handbrake Handbrake To release: 1 Pull lever 2 up slightly, press button 3 and then lower the lever to the floor. 2 To apply: Pull the lever 2 upwards and make sure the vehicle is immobilised. 3 Make sure that the handbrake is properly released when driving (red indicator light off), otherwise overheating, or even damage, may occur. Selecting reverse gear Vehicles with manual gearbox: follow the grid drawn on knob 1, and depending on the vehicle, lift ring against the gear lever knob to select reverse. Vehicle with automatic gearbox: refer to the information on the “Automatic gearbox” in Section 2. The reversing lights will come on as soon as reverse gear is selected with the ignition on. An impact to the underside of the vehicle while manoeuvring (e.g.: striking a post, raised kerb or other street furniture) may result in damage to the vehicle (e.g.: deformation of the rear axle). To avoid any risk of accident, have your vehicle checked by an approved Dealer. When stationary and depending on the slope and/or vehicle load, it may be necessary to pull up the handbrake at least two extra notches and engage a gear (1st or reverse gear) for vehicles with a manual gearbox or position P for vehicles with an automatic transmission. 2.11 ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE (1/3) Note: To indicate that the electronic parking brake is applied or released, a beep sounds and the message “Apply parking brake” appears on the instrument panel: 1 2 – with the engine running: when the driver’s door is opened; 3 – with the engine switched off (eg. when the engine stalls): when a front door is opened. In this case, pull and release switch 3 to apply the electronic parking brake. Automatic operation The electronic parking brake ensures vehicle immobilisation when the engine is stopped and engine Start/ Stop button 1 is pressed. In all other instances, e.g. engine stalling, the electronic parking brake is not applied automatically. Manual mode must be used. For certain country-specific model versions, the automatic brake application function is not activated. Refer to the information on “Manual operation”. 2.12 To confirm that the electronic parking brake is applied, the message “Parking } brake on” and indicator light on the instrument panel and indicator light 2 on switch 3 light up. After the engine is switched off, indicator light 2 goes out several minutes after the electronic parking brake has } been applied and indicator light goes out when the vehicle is locked. Automatic releasing of the electronic parking brake The brake will be released as soon as the vehicle moves, by accelerating with a gear selected and the engine running. Before leaving the vehicle, check that the electronic parking brake is fully applied. Indicator light 2 on } switch 3 and indicator light on the instrument panel light up to show that the parking brake is applied but go out when the doors are locked. ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE (2/3) Special cases 4 2 3 1 When parking on a slope or towing a trailer, pull switch 3 for a few seconds to obtain the maximum braking effect. To park the vehicle without applying the electronic parking brake (if there is a risk of freezing, for example): – with the engine running and RENAULT card in reader 4, switch off the engine by pressing engine Start/Stop button 1; – select a gear (manual gearbox) or position P (automatic gearbox); Manual operation You can control the electronic parking brake manually. Applying the electronic parking brake Pull switch 3. Indicator lights 2 and } Brief stop To manually activate the electronic parking brake, (when stopping at a red light, or stopping when the engine is running, etc.): pull and release switch 3. The brake is released as soon as the vehicle is started up again. – depress the brake pedal and press switch 3 at the same time; – remove the RENAULT card from the card reader. light up on the instrument panel. Releasing the electronic parking brake With the ignition on, depress the brake pedal then press button 3: indicator lights 2 and } go out. 2.13 ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE (3/3) Versions with an automatic gearbox For safety reasons, automatic release is deactivated when the driver’s door is open or not shut properly and the engine is running (in order to prevent the vehicle from moving without the driver). The “Release parking brake manually” message appears on the instrument panel when the driver depresses the accelerator. Never leave your vehicle without moving the selector lever to position P or N. This is because when the vehicle is stationary with the engine running and a gear engaged, the vehicle may begin to move if you accelerate. There is a risk of accidents. 2.14 Operating faults – If there is a fault, the © warning light illuminates on the instrument panel accompanied by the “Check parking brake” message and, in some cases, the light. } warning – If there is an electronic parking brake fault, warning lights ® light up accompanied by the “Parking brake fault” message, a beep and in certain cases indicator light } . This means that you must stop as soon as traffic conditions allow. Contact an approved Dealer as soon as possible. If no lights or sounds are apparent, this indicates a fault in the instrument panel. This indicates that it is essential to stop immediately (as soon as traffic conditions allow). Ensure that the vehicle is correctly immobilised and contact an approved Dealer. It is therefore essential to immobilise the vehicle by engaging first gear (manual gearbox) or position P (automatic gearbox). If the slope requires it, chock the vehicle. Advice: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (1/3) Your vehicle complies with criteria for recycling and recovering vehicles at the end of their service life which will come into force in 2015. Some parts of your vehicle have therefore been designed to facilitate future recycling. These parts are easy to remove so that they can be recovered and reprocessed by recycling companies. By virtue of its design, moderate fuel consumption and initial settings, your vehicle also conforms to current antipollution regulations. The manufacturer is actively striving to reduce pollutant exhaust gas emissions and to save energy. But the fuel consumption of your vehicle and the level of pollutant exhaust gas emissions are also your responsibility. Ensure that it is maintained and used correctly. Aiding fuel economy Depending on the vehicle, in order to optimise consumption, an indicator light on the instrument panel will inform you of the best moment to upshift or downshift gears: \ [ shift up a gear; shift down a gear. Maintenance It is important to remember that failure to respect antipollution regulations could lead to legal action being taken against the vehicle owner. In addition, replacing engine, fuel supply system and exhaust components with parts other than those originally recommended by the manufacturer may alter your vehicle so that it no longer complies with antipollution regulations. Have your vehicle adjusted and checked by an approved Dealer, in accordance with the instructions given in your maintenance schedule: they will have all the equipment necessary for ensuring that your vehicle is maintained to its original standard. Engine adjustments – ignition: this does not require adjustment. – spark plugs: for optimum fuel economy, efficiency and performance the specifications laid down by our Design Department must be strictly applied. If the spark plugs have to be changed, use the make, type and gap specified for your vehicle’s engine. Contact an approved dealer for this. – idle: this does not require adjustment. – air filter, diesel filter: a clogged element reduces performance. It must be replaced. 2.15 Advice: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (2/3) Exhaust gas monitoring system – Sporty driving uses a lot of fuel: drive with a light right foot. – Brake as little as possible. If you anticipate an obstacle or bend in advance, you may then simply release the accelerator pedal. – Do not try to maintain the same speed up a hill, accelerate no more than you would on the level. Keep your foot in the same position on the accelerator pedal. – Double declutching and accelerating before switching off are unnecessary in modern vehicles. – Bad weather, flooded roads: The exhaust gas monitoring system will detect any operating faults in the vehicle’s antipollution system. If this system malfunctions, toxic substances may be released into the atmosphere or damage may occur. Ä This warning light on the instrument panel will indicate if there are any faults in the system: This lights up when the ignition is switched on and goes out when the engine is started. – If it lights up continuously, consult an approved Dealer as soon as possible; – if it flashes, reduce the engine speed until the light stops flashing. Contact your approved dealer as soon as possible. 2.16 Driving – Drive carefully for the first few miles until the engine reaches its normal operating temperature, rather than let it warm up while the vehicle is stationary. – Speed is expensive. – Do not overrev the engine in the intermediate gears. Always use the highest gear possible without labouring the engine. On versions with an automatic gearbox, it is preferable to keep the gear lever in position D. – Avoid sudden acceleration. Do not drive through floods if the water is above the lower edge of the wheel rims. Obstructions to the driver On the driver’s side, only use mats adapted to the vehicle that attach to the preinstalled parts, and regularly check their mounting. Do not place several mats on top of each other. Risk of pedals jamming Advice: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (3/3) – In vehicles fitted with air conditioning, it is normal to observe an increase in fuel consumption (especially in urban conditions) when it is used. For vehicles fitted with manual air conditioning, switch off the system when it is not required. Advice for reducing consumption and therefore helping to preserve the environment: If the vehicle has been parked in the sun, open the doors for a few moments to let the hot air escape before starting the engine. Advice on use – Electricity is fuel; switch off all the electrical components which are not really needed. However (safety first), keep your lights on when the visibility is bad (“see and be seen”). – Use the air vents. Driving with the windows open at 60 mph (100 km/h) will increase fuel consumption by 4%. – Never fill the fuel tank right to the brim to avoid overflow. – Do not leave an empty roof rack fitted to the vehicle. – It is better to fit a trailer for bulky objects. – When towing a caravan, fit a wind deflector and adjust it carefully. – Avoid using the car for door-to-door calls (short journeys with long waits in between) because the engine never reaches its normal operating temperature. Tyres – An underinflated tyre increases fuel consumption. – The use of non-recommended tyres can increase fuel consumption. 2.17 Environment Your vehicle has been designed with respect for the environment in mind for its entire service life: during production, use and at the end of its life. This commitment is illustrated by the Renault eco² signature. Emissions Manufacture Our vehicles are also equipped with a particle filter system including a catalytic converter, an oxygen sensor and an active carbon filter (the latter prevents vapour from the fuel tank being released into the open air). Your vehicle has been manufactured at an factory which uses a progress policy to reduce the environmental impact on the surrounding area and nature (reduction of water and energy consumption, visual and noise pollution, atmospheric emissions and waste water, sorting and reusing waste). Your vehicle has been designed to emit fewer greenhouse gases (CO2) while in use, and therefore to consume less fuel (eg. 140 g/km, equivalent to 5.3 l/100 km for a diesel vehicle). For certain diesel vehicles, this system also has a particle filter to reduce the volume of soot particles emitted. Please make your own contribution towards protecting the environment too – Worn parts replaced in the course of routine vehicle maintenance (vehicle battery, oil filter, air filter, batteries, etc.) and oil containers (empty or filled with used oil) must be disposed of through specialist organisations. 2.18 – At the end of the vehicle’s service life, it should be sent to approved centres to ensure that it is recycled. – In all cases, comply with local legislation. Recycling Your vehicle is 85% recyclable and 95% recoverable. To achieve these objectives, many of the vehicle components have been designed to enable them to be recycled. The materials and structures have been carefully designed to allow these components to be easily removed and reprocessed by specialist companies. In order to preserve raw material resources, this vehicle incorporates numerous parts made from recycled plastics or renewable materials (vegetable or animal-derived materials such as cotton or wool). Tyre pressure monitor (1/3) If the vehicle is equipped with the function, this system monitors the tyre pressure. 1 The tyre pressure can be adjusted when cold (refer to the information on “Tyre pressures”). If tyre pressures cannot be checked when the tyres are cold, the recommended pressures must be increased by 0.2 to 0.3 bar (3 PSI). 2 Operating principle Each wheel (except for the emergency spare wheel) has a sensor in the inflation valve which periodically measures the tyre pressure. The system informs the driver via the display 1 and trip computer and warning system 2 that the tyres are sufficiently inflated and warns if they are underinflated or leaking. Never deflate a hot tyre. 3 This system monitors the tyre pressure. Depending on the vehicle, the information is displayed on the instrument panel. In this case, they appear: This function is an additional driving aid. However, the function does not take the place of the driver. It cannot, therefore, under any circumstances replace the vigilance or the responsibility of the driver. Check the tyre pressures, including the emergency spare wheel, once a month. – with the ignition on, when scrolling through the trip computer and warning system information by pressing control 3 (refer to the information on the “trip computer and warning system” in Section 1); – or if there is a fault when driving (refer to the following pages to find out more about the warning messages). Changing a wheel If you wish to change your wheels (fitting winter tyres etc.), the system will reset itself automatically after approximately two minutes driving at a minimum speed of 12 mph (20 km/h). Changing a wheel The system may take several minutes depending on use for the new wheel positions and pressures to be recognised; check the tyre pressures after all operations. 2.19 Tyre pressure monitor (2/3) 1 “Puncture” 2 Wheel F indicates that the wheel concerned is punctured or severely underinflated. Replace it or contact an approved dealer if it is punctured. Top up the tyre pressure if the wheel is deflated, E This message appears along with the ® warning light. F Display Display 1 on the instrument panel and trip computer and warning system 2 informs you of any tyre pressure faults (flat tyre, punctured tyre, system fault, etc.). 2.20 “Adjust tyre pressure” A shaded wheel F indicates a deflated tyre. “Inflate tyres for motorway” All four wheels F become full, the tyre pressure is not adapted to the driving speed. Slow down or inflate all four tyres to “motorway pressure” (refer to the label located on the label on the edge of the driver’s door). “Tyre pressure sensors absent” or “Check tyre pressure sensors” One wheel E disappears, indicating that the sensor on this wheel is missing or faulty (e.g. if the emergency spare wheel is fitted). Tyre pressure monitor (3/3) Emergency spare wheel If the vehicle is equipped with an emergency spare wheel, it will not have a sensor. When it is fitted to the vehicle, the message “Tyre pressure sensors absent” is displayed on the instrument panel. Tyre repair product and inflation kit Because the valves are specially designed, only use equipment approved by the approved network. Replacing wheels/tyres This system requires specific equipment (wheels, tyres, sensors, etc.). Contact an approved dealer to replace the tyres and to find out about available accessories compatible with the system: the use of any other accessory could affect the correct operation of the system or damage a sensor. 2.21 Driver correction devices/aids (1/4) Depending on the vehicle, this is composed of: – the ABS (anti-lock braking system); – electronic stability control ESC with understeer control and traction control ASR ; – emergency brake assist with, depending on the vehicle, braking anticipation. These functions are an additional aid in the event of critical driving conditions, enabling the vehicle behaviour to be adapted to suit the driving conditions. However, the functions do not take the place of the driver. They do not increase the vehicle’s limits and should not encourage you to drive more quickly. Therefore, they can under no circumstances replace the vigilance or responsibility of the driver when manoeuvring the vehicle (the driver must always be ready for sudden incidents which may occur when driving). 2.22 ABS (anti-lock braking system) Under heavy braking, the ABS prevents the wheels from locking, allowing the stopping distance to be managed and keeping control of the vehicle. Under these circumstances, the vehicle can be steered to avoid an obstacle whilst braking. In addition, this system can increase stopping distances, particularly on roads with low surface grip (wet ground etc.). You will feel a pulsation through the brake pedal each time the system is activated. The ABS does not in any way improve the vehicle’s physical performance relating to the road surface and roadholding. It is still essential to follow the rules of good driving practice (such as driving at a safe distance from the vehicle in front etc.). In an emergency, apply firm and continuous pressure to the brake pedal. There is no need to pump it repeatedly. The ABS will modulate the force applied in the braking system. Operating faults: – – © and x lit up on the instrument panel alongside messages “Check ABS”, “Check braking system” and “Check ESC”: ABS, ESC and emergency brake assist are deactivated. Braking is always enabled; xD , , © and ® lit up on the instrument panel alongside the message “Braking system fault”: this indicates a fault in the braking system. In both cases, consult an approved Dealer. Your braking systems are partially operational. However, it is dangerous to brake suddenly and it is essential to stop immediately, as soon as traffic conditions allow. Contact an approved dealer. Driver correction devices/aids (2/4) Hill start assistance This device assists the driver when starting on hills (ascending or descending). It prevents the vehicle from rolling forwards or backwards by automatically applying the brakes when the driver lifts their foot off the brake pedal to depress the accelerator pedal. System operation It only operates when the gear lever is in a position other than neutral (other than N or P for automatic transmissions) and the vehicle is completely stationary (brake pedal depressed) The system holds the vehicle for approximately 2 seconds. The brakes are then gradually released (the vehicle will move according to the slope). The hill start assistance system cannot completely prevent the vehicle from rolling backwards in all situations (extremely steep gradients, etc.). In all cases, the driver may depress the brake pedal to prevent the vehicle from rolling forwards or backwards. The hill start assistance function should not be used for prolonged stops: use the brake pedal. This function is not designed to immobilise the vehicle permanently. If necessary, use the brake pedal to stop the vehicle. The driver must remain particularly vigilant when driving on slippery or low-grip surfaces and/or on hills. Risk of serious injury. 2.23 Driver correction devices/aids (3/4) Electronic stability control ESC with understeer control and traction control ASR Electronic stability control ESC This system helps you to keep control of the vehicle in critical driving conditions (avoiding an obstacle, loss of grip on a bend, etc.). Operating principle A sensor in the steering wheel detects the direction selected by the driver. Other sensors throughout the vehicle measure the actual direction. The system compares driver input to the actual trajectory of the vehicle and corrects the trajectory if necessary by controlling the braking of certain wheels and/or engine power. In the event that the system is engaged, indicator light ù 2.24 flashes on the instrument panel. Understeer control Operating faults This system optimises the action of the ESC in the case of pronounced understeer (loss of front axle road holding). When the system detects an operating fault the message “Check ESC” and warning light © appear on the instrument panel. In this case, the ESC and ASR are deactivated. Traction control ASR This system helps to limit wheelspin of the drive wheels and to control the vehicle when pulling away accelerating or decelerating. Operating principle Using the wheel sensors, the system measures and compares the speed of the drive wheels at all times and slows down their over-rotation. If a wheel is starting to slip, the system brakes automatically until the drive supplied becomes compatible with the level of grip under the wheel again. The system also adjusts the engine speed to the grip available under the wheels, independently of the pressure exerted on the accelerator pedal. Consult an approved dealer. Driver correction devices/aids (4/4) The traction control ASR offers additional safety, it is recommended that you do not drive with the function disabled. Correct this as soon as possible by pressing switch 1 again. 1 Note: the function is reactivated automatically when the ignition is switched on or when a speed of approximately 24 mph (40 km/h) is exceeded. Emergency brake assist This system supplements the ABS and helps reduce vehicle stopping distances. Disabling the function ASR In some situations (driving on very wet ground: snow, mud, etc. or driving with snow chains fitted), the system may reduce the engine output to limit wheelspin. If this is not required, it is possible to deactivate the function by pressing switch 1. The message “Traction control off” is displayed on the instrument panel to inform you. Operating principle The system is for detecting an emergency braking situation. In this case, the braking assistance immediately develops maximum power and may trigger ABS regulation. ABS braking is maintained as long as the brake pedal is applied. Hazard warning lights switching on Depending on the vehicle, these may light up in the event of sudden deceleration. Operating faults When the system detects an operating fault the message “Check braking system” appears on the instrument panel along with the © warning light. Consult an approved dealer. Braking anticipation Depending on the vehicle, when you rapidly release the accelerator, the system anticipates the braking manoeuvre in order to reduce stopping distances. Special cases When using the cruise control: – if you use the accelerator, when you release it, the system may be triggered; – if you do not use the accelerator, the system will not be triggered. 2.25 LANE DEPARTURE WARNING (1/2) This lane departure warning system notifies the driver when they accidentally cross a continuous or broken line. This function uses a camera attached to the windscreen, behind the rear-view mirror. – – – – – – This function is a driving aid in the event of the accidental crossing of a continuous or broken line in the road. However, the function is not intended to replace the driver. The function can be disrupted under certain conditions, including: poor visibility (rain, snow, fog, dirty windscreen, glare of the sun, partially obscured road lines, etc.); roads with tight bends; closely following a vehicle in the same lane; worn road markings, difficult to distinguish or spaced very widely apart; narrow roads; ... In this case, warning light on the instrument panel goes out to indicate that the function will not operate (lines not detected). Under no circumstances should this function replace the driver’s care or responsibility whilst performing manoeuvres. 2.26 LANE DEPARTURE WARNING (2/2) When a line is crossed and the indicators have not been activated, the function alerts the driver through warning light on the instrument panel, and a beep. 1 Activation Press button 1: the warning light on the 1 button lights up, accompanied by the message “Lane deviation warning on” and a beep. The function sounds the alarm if: – the warning light on the 1 button lights up; and – the vehicle speed is greater than approximately 45 mph (70 km/h); and – lines are detected. Conditions for non-activation of alerts – Indicators activated or having been activated less than approximately four seconds prior to departing from the lane; – Very fast lane departure; – Driving continuously on a line; – On bends, the function allows for slightly cutting the bend; – ... Adjustment From the vehicle settings customisation menu (please refer to the information on the “Vehicle settings customisation menu” in Section 1), you can: – adjust the alert audio volume. To do this, select “lane departure alert: volume” (five levels); – adjust the alert sensitivity. To do this, select “lane departure alert: sensitivity” (three levels). Deactivation Press button 1 on the central rear-view mirror. The warning light on button 1 goes out, accompanied by a message on the instrument panel “Lane departure warning de-activated”. Operating faults In the event of a malfunction, a message “Lane departure warning check” is displayed on the instrument panel, and the warning light on button 1 stays off. Consult an approved dealer. Warning light comes on on the instrument panel to notify the driver. 2.27 Cruise control/speed limiter: speed limiter function (1/3) 6 1 2 5 3 The speed limiter function helps you stay within the driving speed limit that you choose, known as the limit speed. 4 Controls 1 Main “On/Off” switch. 2 Limit speed activation, storage and increase switch (+). 3 Decrease limit speed (-). 4 Switch the function to standby (with memorisation of the limit speed) (O). 5 Activation and recall of stored limit speed (R). 2.28 7 Switching on Press switch 1 on the side showing . Indicator light 7 comes on, lit orange, and the message “Speed limiter” appears on the instrument panel, accompanied by dashes in zone 6 to indicate that the speed limiter function is activated and waiting to store a limit speed. To store the current speed, press switch 2 (+): The limited speed will appear in zone 6. The minimum stored speed is 20 mph (30 km/h). Cruise control/speed limiter: speed limiter function (2/3) C Varying the limit speed Exceeding the limit speed The limit speed may be changed by repeatedly pressing: It is possible to exceed the limit speed at any moment. To do this: press the accelerator pedal firmly and fully (beyond the kickdown point). – switch 2 (+) to increase the speed; – switch 3 (-) to decrease the speed. 2 5 3 While the speed is being exceeded, the limit speed flashes on the instrument panel and area C lights up red. Then, as far as is possible, release the accelerator pedal: the speed limiter function will return as soon as you reach a speed lower than the stored speed. 4 Limited speed cannot be maintained Driving If driving up or down a steep gradient, the system is unable to maintain the limit speed: the stored speed on the instrument panel will flash and zone C will light up in red to inform you of this situation. When a limited speed has been stored and this speed is not reached, driving is similar to driving a vehicle without the speed limiter function. Once you have reached the stored speed, no effort on the accelerator pedal will allow you to exceed the programmed speed except in an emergency (refer to information on “Exceeding the limit speed”). The speed limiter function is in no way linked to the braking system. 2.29 Cruise control/speed limiter: speed limiter function (3/3) 6 7 1 2 5 3 4 Putting the function on standby The speed limiter function is suspended when you press switch 4 (O). In this case, the limit speed will remain stored and is no longer displayed in zone 6 and the message “Memorised” along with the stored speed will appear on the display. Recalling the limit speed Switching off the function If a speed has been stored, it can be recalled by pressing switch 5 (R). The speed limiter function is deactivated if you press switch 1: in this case a speed is no longer stored. The instrument panel orange indicator light 7 goes out to confirm that the function is deactivated. When the speed limiter is put on standby, pressing switch 2 (+) reactivates the function without taking into account the stored speed: it is the speed at which the vehicle is moving that is taken into account. 2.30 Cruise control/speed limiter: cruise control function (1/4) 1 The cruise control function helps you to maintain your driving speed at a speed that you choose, called the cruising speed. This cruising speed may be set at any speed above 20 mph (30 km/h). 2 This function is an additional driving aid. However, the function does not take the place of the driver. Therefore, it can under no circumstances replace the driver’s responsibility to respect speed limits and to be vigilant (the driver must always be ready to brake). Cruise control must not be used in heavy traffic, on undulating or slippery roads (black ice, aquaplaning, gravel) and during bad weather (fog, rain, side winds etc.). There is a risk of accidents. 3 4 5 Controls 1 Main “On/Off” switch. 2 Limit speed activation, storage and increase switch (+). 3 Decrease cruising speed (-). 4 Switch the function to standby (with memorisation of the governed cruising speed) (O). 5 Activation with recall of stored governed cruising speed (R). The cruise control function is in no way linked to the braking system. 2.31 Cruise control/speed limiter: cruise control function (2/4) B C 5 2 3 Press switch 1 on the side showing . Indicator light 7 comes on, lit green, and the message “Cruise control” appears on the instrument panel and dashes appear in zone 6 to indicate that the cruise control function is activated and waiting to store a cruising speed. 4 Activating cruise control Driving At a steady speed (above 20 mph (30 km/h) approximately) press switch 2 (+): the speed is stored. The cruising speed will appear in zone 6. Once a cruising speed is stored and the cruise control function is active, you may lift your foot off the accelerator pedal. Cruise control activation is confirmed when area A lights up green in addition to indicator light 7. Area B also lights up green to indicate that the cruising speed has been reached. sary. 2.32 7 A 1 Switching on 6 Important: you are nevertheless advised to keep your feet close to the pedals in order to react if neces- Cruise control/speed limiter: cruise control function (3/4) B Exceeding the cruising speed C 6 The cruising speed may be exceeded at any time by depressing the accelerator pedal. The cruising speed flashes on the instrument panel along with the illumination of zone C in red. A 5 2 3 4 Adjusting the cruising speed The cruising speed may be changed by pressing the following repeatedly: Putting the function on standby The function is suspended when you: – press switch 4 (O); – depress the brake pedal; Then, release the accelerator: after a few seconds, the vehicle will automatically return to its set cruising speed. – depress the clutch pedal or shift into neutral if the vehicle has an automatic gearbox. Cruising speed cannot be maintained In all three cases, the cruising speed remains stored, it is no longer displayed in zone 6 and the message “Memorised” along with the stored speed will appear on the instrument panel. If driving up or down a steep gradient, the system is unable to maintain the cruising speed: the stored speed on the instrument panel will flash and zone C will light up in red to inform you of this situation. Standby is confirmed when zones A, B and C go out. – switch 2 (+) to increase the speed; – switch 3 (-) to decrease the speed. The cruise control function is in no way linked to the braking system. 2.33 Cruise control/speed limiter: cruise control function (4/4) B C 7 A 1 5 2 3 4 Returning to the cruising speed If a speed is stored, it can be recalled, once you are sure that the road conditions are suitable (traffic, road surface, weather conditions, etc.). Press switch 5 (R) if the vehicle speed is above 20 mph (30 km/h). When recalling the stored speed zone A lights up to confirm activation. Zone B lights up as soon as the cruising speed is reached. 2.34 Note: if the speed previously stored is much higher than the current speed, the vehicle will accelerate more rapidly to reach this threshold. When the cruise control function is put on standby, pressing switch 2 (+) reactivates the cruise control function without taking into account the stored speed: it is the speed at which the vehicle is moving that is taken into account. Switching off the function The cruise control function is deactivated if you press switch 1: in this case a speed is no longer stored. The instrument panel green indicator light 7 and zones A, B and C go out, confirming that the function is deactivated. Putting the cruise control on standby or switching it off does not cause a rapid reduction in speed: you must brake by depressing the brake pedal. PARKING DISTANCE CONTROL (1/3) Operating principle Ultrasonic detectors, installed in the front or rear bumper depending on the vehicle, measure the distance between the vehicle and an obstacle whilst reversing. This measurement is indicated by beeps which become more frequent the closer you come to the obstacle, until they become a continuous beep when the vehicle is approximately 25 centimetres from the obstacle. Front parking distance control (depending on vehicle) Operation The parking distance control system is only activated when the vehicle is driven at a speed below approximately 6 mph (10 km/h). Most objects located less than approximately 60 centimetres away from the front of the vehicle are detected and a beep is emitted. Automatic activation/deactivation of the front parking distance control The system deactivates: – when the electronic parking brake is applied; This function is an additional aid that indicates the distance between the vehicle and an obstacle whilst reversing, using sound signals. – when the vehicle speed is above approximately 6 mph (10 km/h); Under no circumstances should it replace the driver’s care or responsibility whilst reversing. – when the vehicle is stationary for more than approximately five seconds and an obstacle is detected (such as when in a traffic jam etc.); The driver should always look out for sudden hazards during driving: always ensure that there are no moving obstacles (such as a child, animal, pram or bicycle, etc.) or small, narrow objects such as stones or posts in your path when manoeuvring. – when the vehicle is in neutral or when the gear lever has been shifted to N or P for automatic gearboxes; 2.35 PARKING DISTANCE CONTROL (2/3) Automatic activation/deactivation of the rear parking distance control The system deactivates: – when the electronic parking brake is applied; – when the vehicle speed is above approximately 6 mph (10 km/h); – when the vehicle is stationary for more than approximately five seconds and an obstacle is detected (such as when in a traffic jam etc.); – when the vehicle is in neutral or when the gear lever has been shifted to N or P for automatic gearboxes. Rear parking distance control Operation When reversing, most objects located less than approximately 1.5 metres away from the rear of the vehicle are detected and a beep is emitted. If there are obstacles located close to both the front and rear of the vehicle, only the closest of the two will be acknowledged and the corresponding front or rear beep sound will be emitted. If obstacles are detected both to the front and to the rear of the vehicle at the same time, and they are both less than 30 centimetres away from the vehicle, the corresponding front and rear beeps will be emitted alternately. 2.36 An impact to the underside of the vehicle while manoeuvring (e.g.: striking a post, raised kerb or other street furniture) may result in damage to the vehicle (e.g.: deformation of an axle). To avoid any risk of accident, have your vehicle checked by an approved Dealer. PARKING DISTANCE CONTROL (3/3) Prolonged deactivation of the system 1 2 You may permanently activate or deactivate the front or rear parking distance control separately. From the vehicle settings customisation menu (refer to the information on the “Vehicle settings customisation menu” in Section 1), select the line “Front parking sensor” or “Rear parking sensor” then activate or deactivate the system: < = Special features Ensure that the ultrasonic sensors are not obscured (by dirt, mud, snow, etc.). Operating faults When the system detects an operating fault there will be a 5-second continuous beep as a warning.

From the vehicle settings customisation menu (please refer to the information on “Vehicle settings customisation menu” in Section 1), select the line “Parking sensor volume” to adjust the parking distance control volume and confirm by pressing key 1 or 2. When the vehicle is being driven at a speed below approximately 6 mph (10 km/h), certain noises (motorcycle, lorry, pneumatic drill, etc.) may trigger the beeping sound. 2.37 Reversing camera 1 2 C B A Fixed clearance gauge 2 The fixed clearance gauge comprises coloured markers A, B and C indicating the distance behind the vehicle: – A (red) approximately 50 centimetres from the vehicle; – B (yellow) approximately 1 metre from the vehicle; – C (green) approximately 2 to 3 metres from the vehicle; This gauge remains fixed and indicates the vehicle trajectory if the wheels are in line with the vehicle. This system is initially used with the aid of the gauges (mobile for the trajectory and fixed for the distance), then when the red zone is reached, use the representation of the bumper to stop accurately. Note: depending on the vehicle, certain parameters can be adjusted. Refer to the handbook for the equipment. The screen shows a reverse image. Operation When reversing (and up to approximately 5 seconds after shifting to another gear), a view of the surroundings to the rear of the vehicle is displayed on the instrument panel accompanied by two clearance gauges 1 and 2 (mobile and fixed). The frames are a representation projected onto flat ground; this information must not be taken into account when superimposed on a vertical object or an object on the ground. Objects which appear on the edge of the screen may be deformed. Note: make sure that the reversing camera is not obscured (by dirt, mud, snow, etc.). In very bright light (snow, vehicle in sunshine etc.), the camera vision may be adversely affected. Mobile clearance gauge 1 This is shown in blue on the navigation screen. It indicates the vehicle trajectory according to the position of the steering wheel. When the tailgate is open or not closed properly, the message “Boot open” is displayed on the instrument panel (risk of incorrect information on-screen) 2.38 This function is an additional aid. It cannot, therefore, under any circumstances replace the vigilance or the responsibility of the driver. The driver should always pay attention to sudden incidents during driving: always ensure that there are no moving obstacles (such as a child, animal, pram, bicycle, etc.) or small, narrow objects such as stones or posts in your path when manoeuvring. Automatic transmission (1/3) Driving in automatic mode 4 1 2 3 5 9 6 8 7 Selector lever 1 Operation Display 3 on the instrument panel shows the mode and gear selected. With the gear lever 1 in position P, switch on the ignition. 4: P: park 5: R: reverse gear 6: N: neutral 7: D: automatic mode 8 : manual mode 9: zone displaying gearbox mode or gear engaged in manual mode To move out of position P, you must depress the brake pedal before pressing unlocking button 2. With the foot on the brake pedal (warning light c on the display 3 goes out), move the lever out of position P. Select position D. In most traffic conditions, you will not have to touch the gear selector lever again: the gears will change automatically at the right time and at the most suitable engine speed because the automatic system takes into account the vehicle load and road contour and adjusts itself to the particular driving style you have chosen. Economical driving When driving, always leave the lever in position D, keeping the accelerator pedal lightly depressed to ensure automatic gear changes at a lower engine speed. Accelerating and overtaking Depress the accelerator pedal firmly and fully (so that it goes beyond the kickdown point). This will enable you to change down to the optimum gear within the engine range. Only engage D or R when the vehicle is stopped, with your foot on the brake and the accelerator pedal released. 2.39 Automatic transmission (2/3) Driving in manual mode Special circumstances Parking the vehicle With the selector lever in position D, move the lever to the left. Shifting the lever repeatedly allows you to change gears manually: – If the road contours and bends do not allow you to stay in automatic mode (e.g.: in the mountains), we recommend that you change to manual mode. This will prevent the automatic gearbox from changing gears repeatedly when climbing, and permit engine braking on long descents. When the vehicle is stopped, move the lever to position P while keeping your foot on the brake pedal: the gearbox is in neutral and the drive wheels are mechanically locked by the driveshaft. – To move down through the gears, push the lever backwards; – To move up through the gears, push the lever forwards. The gear selected is displayed on the instrument panel. Special cases In certain driving conditions (e.g.: engine protection, operation of the Electronic Stability Program) the automated system may change the gear automatically. – In cold weather, to prevent the engine from stalling, wait a few moments before shifting the selector lever from position P or N and engaging D or R. An impact to the underside of the vehicle while manoeuvring (e.g.: striking a post, raised kerb or other street furniture) may result in damage to the vehicle (e.g.: deformation of an axle). Likewise, to prevent incorrect manoeuvres, a gear change may be refused by the automatic system: in this case the gear display flashes for a few seconds as a warning. In very cold weather, the system may prevent the gears from being shifted in manual mode until the gearbox reaches the right temperature. 2.40 Apply the handbrake or, depending on the vehicle, ensure that the electronic parking brake is applied. To avoid any risk of accident, have your vehicle checked by an approved Dealer. Automatic transmission (3/3) Operating faults – When driving, if the message “Check auto gearbox” appears on the instrument panel, this indicates there is a fault. Contact your approved Dealer as soon as possible. – When driving, if the message “Auto gearbox overheating” appears on the instrument panel, stop the vehicle to allow the gearbox to cool down. 2 10 Contact your approved Dealer as soon as possible. – If a vehicle with an automatic gearbox breaks down, refer to the information on “Towing” in Section 5. When setting off, if the lever is locked in position P even though you are depressing the brake pedal and pressing unlocking button 2, the lever can be released manually. To do this, press the button by inserting an object into the hole 10 and simultaneously press unlocking button 2 located on the lever. 2.41 2.42 Section 3: Your comfort Air vents. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Consult an approved Dealer. Down: closed. Turn control knob 3 (beyond the point of resistance). To the right: maximum air flow. To the left: closed. Depending on the vehicle, the air vents 4 may be replaced by a storage compartment; refer to Section 3 “Passenger compartment storage/ fittings”. Do not add anything to the vehicle’s ventilation circuit (for example, to remove bad odours). There is a risk of damage or of fire. 3.3 Manual air conditioning (1/2) 1 2 3 4 Distribution of air in the passenger compartment There are five air distribution options. Turn control 4 to choose the distribution option. W i The air flow is directed to the windscreen and the front side window demisting vents. The air flow is distributed between all the air vents, the front side window demisting vents, the windscreen demisting vents and the footwells. The controls 6 1 Adjusting the air temperature 5 Switching air conditioning on or off 3 Air conditioning. The air conditioning is switched on (indicator light on) or off (indicator light off) using button 3. 4 Distribution of air in the passenger compartment. The air conditioning system is used for: 2 Adjusting the ventilation speed 5 De-icing/demisting of the rear screen and, depending on the vehicle, the door mirrors. 6 Air recirculation. 3.4 – lowering the temperature inside the passenger compartment; – eliminating condensation more quickly. ó G J The air flow is directed mainly towards the footwells. The air flow is directed towards the dashboard vents and the footwells. All the air flow is directed to the dashboard vents. Manual air conditioning (2/2) 1 2 3 4 “OFF" position: the system is deactivated: the ventilation speed for the passenger compartment air is zero (vehicle stationary), you can however still feel a slight flow of air when the vehicle is moving. Recommended demisting option: W Turn controls 1, 2 and 4 to the position. This is the quickest option for de-icing and demisting the side windows and the windscreen. Switching the air recirculation on 6 Press button 6: the integrated indicator light comes on. Under these conditions, air is taken from the passenger compartment and is recirculated, with no air being taken from outside the vehicle. Air recirculation is for: – isolating the vehicle from the external atmosphere (driving in polluted areas, etc.); – lowering the passenger compartment temperature as quickly as possible. Adjusting the ventilation speed Turn control 2 clockwise to increase the air flow in the passenger compartment. The passenger compartment is ventilated by blown air. The blower determines how much air enters but vehicle speed has a slight effect on this. Prolonged use of air recirculation can lead to condensation forming on the side windows and windscreen, and discomfort due to the use of non-renewed air in the passenger compartment. We therefore advise you to return to normal mode (external air) as soon as the air recirculation function is no longer required, by pressing the button 6 again. The de-icing function cannot be used with the air recirculation mode to avoid any risk of condensation forming on the windscreen and triggers the air conditioning and the integrated indicator light 3 to come on. 3.5 automatic climate control (1/5) 2 1 3 6 13 11 10 1 and 6 Air temperature. 2, 3 and 4 Automatic programmes. 5 Distribution of air in the passenger compartment. 7 Off button. 8 Air conditioning.

The automatic climate control system guarantees comfort in the passenger compartment and good visibility (except in the event of extreme conditions), whilst optimising consumption. The system controls the ventilation speed, air distribution, air recirculation, and starting and stopping the air conditioning and air temperature. This mode consists of a choice of three programmes: AUTO: allows the selected comfort level to be best attained, depending on the exterior conditions. Press button 3. SOFT: gently brings the temperature to the desired comfort level. The comfort level is then maintained gently and silently. Press button 2. FAST: increases the operation of the system to reach the desired comfort level more quickly. Use this programme when you have passengers in the rear. Press button 4. automatic climate control (2/5) 2 1 3 Clear View function 4 12 Press button 10: the integrated indicator light comes on. 6 This function quickly demists and deices the windscreen, the rear screen, the front side windows, and the door mirrors (depending on the vehicle). The air conditioning and rear screen de-icing functions must be activated. Press button 9 to stop the heated rear screen operating; the integrated indicator goes out. 13 A 10 Varying the ventilation speed 9 Temperature adjustment In automatic mode, the system uses the most suitable amount of air to reach and maintain the desired comfort level. Press button 1 or 6 to raise or lower the left-hand 1 or right-hand 6 temperature. Pressing button 3 for more than two seconds sets the passenger temperature to the driver’s temperature. You can still adjust the ventilation speed by pressing buttons 12 to increase or reduce the ventilation speed. In this case, the ventilation speed, which is no longer controlled automatically, appears in zone A on the display 13. You can change the ventilation speed by pressing button 12. To exit this function, press: – button 10 again, – one of either button 2, 3 or 4. Special note: the highest and lowest settings allow the system to produce maximum hot or cold temperature levels (“LO” and “HI” on display 13). Some buttons have an operating tell-tale which indicates the operating status. 3.7 automatic climate control (3/5) 3 The displayed temperature values show a comfort level. Switching air conditioning on or off In automatic mode, the system switches the air conditioning system on or off, depending on the climate conditions. Press switch 8 to switch off the air conditioning; the integrated indicator comes on and “AC OFF” is shown on the display 13. 13 8 When starting the engine, increasing or decreasing the value displayed will not allow the comfort level to be reached any more quickly. The system will always optimise the temperature increase or decrease (the ventilation system does not start instantly at maximum speed: it gradually increases). This may take several minutes. Generally speaking, unless there is a particular reason not to, the dashboard air vents should remain open. You are recommended to use automatic mode by selecting one of the automatic programmes AUTO, SOFT or FAST. In automatic mode (indicator light for button 3 on), all heating and air conditioning functions are controlled by the system. You can also change the system selection, in this case, indicator light for button 3 will go out and the changed function, which is no longer controlled by the system, is shown on display 13. To return to automatic mode, press one of the AUTO, SOFT or FAST programmes. 3.8 automatic climate control (4/5) 5 W × The air flow is directed to the windscreen and the front side window demisting vents.

The air flow is directed towards the dashboard vents and the footwells. Rear screen de-icing/ demisting 13 B Press button 9: the integrated indicator light comes on. This function permits rapid demisting/de-icing of the rear screen and de-icing of the door mirrors (on equipped vehicles). To exit this function, press button 9 again. Demisting automatically stops by default. 9 Adjusting the distribution of air in the passenger compartment There are five air distribution options. Press switch 5 to scroll through them. The arrows located in area B on the display 13 combine to show you the distribution selected: All the air flow is directed to the dashboard vents. In this situation, the distribution of air in the passenger compartment, which is no longer automatically controlled, appears on the display. 3.9 automatic climate control (5/5) Recycling 2 This function is managed automatically (operation is confirmed by warning light 14 on display 13), but you can also activate it manually. Note: – during recirculation, air is taken from the passenger compartment and is recycled, with no air being taken from outside the vehicle; – air recirculation allows the external atmosphere to be cut off (when driving in polluted areas, etc.); – lowering the passenger compartment temperature as quickly as possible. 13 11 Manual use Pressing button 11 allows air recirculation to be forced, in which case the integrated warning light comes on as well as warning light 14. Prolonged use of this position may lead to odours, caused by non-renewal of air, and the formation of condensation on the windows. We therefore advise you to return to automatic mode as soon as the air recirculation function is no longer required, by pressing button 11 again. The demisting/de-icing will still take priority over the air recirculation. 3.10 3 14 4 7 Stopping the system Press button 7 to switch off the system; in this case “OFF” is shown on the display 13. To switch the system on, press one of the 2, 3 or 4 switches. Air conditioning: information and advice on use Advice on use In some situations, (air conditioning off, air recirculation activated, ventilation speed at zero or low, etc.) you may notice that condensation starts to form on the windows and windscreen. If there is condensation, use the “Clear View” function to remove it, then use the air conditioning in automatic mode to stop it forming again. If the condensation does not clear, use the FAST programme. Note Presence of water under the vehicle. After prolonged use of the air conditioning system, it is normal for water to be present under the vehicle. This is caused by condensation. Fuel consumption You will normally notice an increase in fuel consumption (especially when driving in town) when the air conditioning is operating. For vehicles fitted with manual air conditioning, switch off the system when it is not required. Advice for reducing consumption and therefore helping to preserve the environment: Drive with the air vents open and the windows closed. Operating faults As a general rule, contact your approved Dealer in the event of an operating fault: – reduction in de-icing, demisting or air conditioning performance. This may be caused by the passenger compartment filter cartridge becoming clogged; – no cold air is being produced. Check that the controls are set correctly and that the fuses are sound. Otherwise, switch off the system. If the vehicle has been parked in the sun, open the doors for a few moments to let the hot air escape before starting the engine. Maintenance Refer to the Maintenance Service Booklet for your vehicle for the inspection frequency. Do not open the refrigerant fluid circuit. The fluid may damage eyes or skin. 3.11 Electric windows/Electric panoramic sunroof (1/3) These systems operate with the ignition on or off, until one of the front doors is opened (limited to about 3 minutes). Safety of rear occupants The driver can disable operation of the electric windows and, depending on the vehicle, the rear doors, by pressing switch 4. The indicator light integrated in the switch lights up to confirm that the locks have been activated. Driver’s responsibility Never leave your vehicle with the RENAULT card inside and never leave a child (or a pet) unsupervised, even for a short while. 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. If any part of the body becomes trapped, reverse the direction of the window immediately by pressing the relevant switch. Risk of serious injury. 3.12 1 5 4 2 6 3 Electric windows Press or pull the switch to raise or lower a window to the desired height (the rear windows do not open fully); One-touch mode This mode works in addition to the operation of the electric windows described previously. It either operates on the front windows only, or on all the windows. Briefly press or pull the window switch fully: the window is fully lowered or raised. Pressing the switch again stops the window moving. From the driver’s seat, use switch: 1 for the driver’s side; 2 for the front passenger side; 3 and 5 for the rear passenger windows. From the passenger seats, use switch 6. Note: if the window detects resistance when closing (e.g.: fingers, branch of a tree, etc.) it stops and then lowers again by a few centimetres. Avoid resting any objects against a half-open window: there is a risk that the electric window could be damaged. Electric windows/Electric panoramic sunroof (2/3) Special note 7 0 A B C Your vehicle is equipped with an antipinch facility: when the sunroof encounters resistance whilst closing, (somebody’s fingers, etc.) it stops and then moves back several centimetres.

Engine oil level: general information (1/2) It is normal for an engine to use oil for lubrication and cooling of moving parts and it is normal to top up the level between oil changes. However, contact your approved Dealer if more than 0.5 litres is being consumed every 600 miles (1,000 km) after the running in period. Oil change frequency: check the oil level from time to time and certainly before any long journey to avoid the risk of damaging your engine. 3 Oil level 1 2 4 Reading the oil level The oil level should be read with the vehicle on level ground, after the engine has been switched off for some time. The dipstick must be used to read the exact oil level and make sure that the maximum level has not been exceeded (risk of engine damage). Refer to the following pages. The instrument panel display only alerts the driver when the oil level is at its minimum. Minimum oil level warning on the instrument panel When the message “Checking control functions” is displayed press button 3 or 4. If the level is below minimum: the message “Oil level” appears on the display along with squares 1 that are replaced with dashes 2 when the level goes down. Note: The detailed level cannot be displayed if the vehicle was previously only driven for a short time. if the level is at the minimum The message “Top up oil level” and indicator light © light up on the instrument panel. It is vital to top up the oil as soon as possible. The display only warns the driver if the oil level is at the minimum level. It does not inform the driver that the oil level has exceeded the maximum level as this can only be measured using a dipstick. 4.3 Engine oil level: general information (2/2) A B Maximum engine oil level exceeded. C B A The oil level should only be read with the dipstick as explained above. If the oil level exceeds the maximum level, do not start your vehicle and contact an approved Dealer. Consult your approved Dealer at once if you notice an abnormal or repeated drop in any of the fluid levels. Reading the level using the dipstick – remove the dipstick and wipe with a clean, lint-free cloth; – push the dipstick in as far as it will go (for vehicles equipped with a captype dipstick C, screw the cap in as far as it will go); – take out the dipstick again; – read the level: it should never fall below minimum mark A or exceed maximum mark B. Once the operation has been completed, ensure that the dipstick is pushed in as far as it will go or that the “cap-type dipstick” is completely screwed in. 4.4 Deactivate the Stop and Start function for any operation performed in the engine compartment. Under no circumstances should maximum filling level B be exceeded: this could damage the engine and the catalytic converter. In order to prevent splashback, it is recommended that a funnel be used when topping up/filling with oil The engine may be hot when carrying out operations in close proximity. In addition, the engine cooling fan can come on at any moment. Risk of injury.

Consult an approved Label A Observe the indications on the battery: – 2 n aked flames and smoking forbidden; – 3 eye protection required; – 4 keep away from children; – 5 explosive materials; – 6 refer to the handbook; – 7 corrosive materials. The engine may be hot during operations in close proximity. In addition, the engine cooling fan may start at any moment. Risk of injury. Bodywork maintenance (1/2) A well-maintained vehicle will last longer. It is therefore recommended to maintain the exterior of the vehicle regularly. Protection against the effects of corrosive agents Although your vehicle has been treated with very effective anti-corrosion products, it nevertheless remains subject to the effects of different parameters. Corrosive agents in the atmosphere: – atmospheric pollution (built-up and industrial areas); – saline atmospheres (near the sea, particularly in hot weather); – seasonal and damp weather conditions, (e.g. road salt in winter, water from road cleaners, etc.). Abrasive action Wind-borne dust and sand, mud, road grit thrown up by other vehicles, etc. Minor impacts You should take a minimum number of precautions in order to safeguard your vehicle against such risks and not to lose the benefit of your vehicle’s anticorrosion protection. What you should not do Do not degrease or clean mechanical components (e.g. the engine compartment), underneath the body, parts with hinges (e.g. inside the charging flap) and painted plastic external fittings (e.g. bumpers) using high-pressure cleaning equipment or by spraying on products not approved by our Technical Department. If adequate precautions are not taken, this could give rise to corrosion or operational faults. Allow rust to form following minor impacts. Use solvents not approved by our Technical Department to remove stains as this could damage the paintwork. Drive frequently in snow or muddy conditions without washing the vehicle, particularly under the wheel arches and body. Wash the vehicle in bright sunlight or freezing temperatures. Scrape off mud or dirt without pre-wetting. Allow dirt to accumulate on the exterior. 4.13 Bodywork maintenance (2/2) You should Observe the vehicle stopping distances when driving on gravelled surfaces to prevent paint damage. Repair, or have repaired quickly, areas where the paint has been damaged, to prevent corrosion spreading. Remember to visit the body shop periodically in order to maintain your anti-corrosion warranty. Refer to the Maintenance Service Booklet. Respect local regulations about washing vehicles (e.g. do not wash your vehicle on a public highway). Wash your car frequently, with the engine off, with cleaning products recommended by the manufacturer (never use abrasive products). Rinse thoroughly beforehand with a jet: – spots of tree resin and industrial grime; – mud in the wheel arches and underneath the body which forms damp patches; – bird droppings, which cause a chemical reaction with the paint that rapidly discolours paintwork and may even cause the paint to peel off; Wash the vehicle immediately to remove these marks since it is impossible to remove them by polishing; – salt, particularly in the wheel arches and underneath the body after driving in areas where the roads have been gritted. Using a roller type car wash Return the windscreen wiper stalk to the Park position (refer to the information on the “Windscreen washer, wiper” in Section 1). Check the mounting of external accessories, additional lights and mirrors, and ensure that the wiper blades are secured with adhesive tape. Remove the radio aerial mast if your vehicle is fitted with this equipment. Remember to remove the tape and refit the antenna after washing. If it is necessary to clean mechanical components, hinges, etc., spray them with products approved by our Technical Department to protect them after they have been cleaned. Cleaning the headlights As the headlights are made of plastic “glass”, use a soft cloth or cotton wool to clean them. If this does not clean them properly, moisten the cloth with soapy water, then wipe clean with a soft damp cloth or cotton wool. Finally, carefully dry off with a soft dry cloth. Cleaning products containing alcohol must not be used. We have selected special products to care for your vehicle and you can obtain these from the manufacturer’s accessory outlets. 4.14 INTERIOR TRIM MAINTENANCE (1/2) A well-maintained vehicle will last longer. It is therefore recommended to maintain the interior of the vehicle regularly. A stain should always be dealt with swiftly. Whatever type of stain is on the trim, use cold (or warm) soapy water with natural soap. Detergents (washing-up liquid, powdered products, alcohol-based products) should not be used. Use a soft cloth. Rinse and soak up the excess. Glass instrument panel (e.g. instrument panel, clock, exterior temperature display, radio display, etc.) Use a soft cloth (or cotton wool). If this does not clean it properly, use a soft cloth (or cotton wool) slightly moistened with soapy water and then wipe clean with a soft damp cloth or cotton wool. Finally, carefully dry off with a soft dry cloth. Cleaning products containing alcohol must not be used under any circumstances. Seat belts These must be kept clean. Use products selected by our Technical Department (Approved outlets) or warm, soapy water and a sponge and wipe with a dry cloth. Detergents or dyes must not be used under any circumstances. Textiles (seats, door trim, etc) Vacuum-clean the textiles regularly. Liquid stain Use soapy water. Dab lightly (never rub) with a soft cloth, rinse and remove the excess. Solid or pasty stain Carefully remove the excess solid or pasty material immediately with a spatula (working from the edges to the centre to avoid spreading the stain). Clean as for a liquid stain. Special instructions for sweets or chewing gum Put an ice cube on the stain to solidify it, then proceed as for a solid stain. For further recommendations for maintaining the interior, and/or for any unsatisfactory results, please see an authorised dealer. 4.15 INTERIOR TRIM MAINTENANCE (2/2) Removal/replacing removable equipment originally fitted in the vehicle If you need to remove equipment in order to clean the passenger compartment (for example, mats), always ensure that they are correctly refitted and are the right way around (the driver’s mat should be fitted on the driver’s side, etc.) and fit them with the components supplied with the equipment (for example, the driver mat should always be fixed using the pre-fitted mounting components). You should not: You are strongly advised not to position objects such as deodorants, scents, etc. near air vents, as this could damage your dashboard trim. With the vehicle stationary, ensure that nothing will impede driving (anything obstructing the pedals, heel wedged by the mat, etc.). You are strongly recommended not to use highpressure or spray cleaning equipment inside the passenger compartment: use of such equipment could impair the correct functioning of the electrical or electronic components in the vehicle, or have other detrimental effects. 4.16 Section 5: Practical advice Puncture . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Refer to the information on the “Tyre pressure monitor” in Section 2. This is located in the luggage compartment. To access it: – open the tailgate; – depending on the vehicle, unscrew the anchorage points; – fold back the luggage compartment carpet using tab 1; – unscrew the central mounting; – remove the emergency spare wheel. If the emergency spare wheel has been stored for several years, have it checked by your Dealer to ensure that it is safe to use. Vehicles fitted with an emergency spare wheel which is different to the four other wheels: – Never fit more than one emergency spare wheel to the same vehicle. – Replace the emergency spare wheel as soon as possible with a wheel identical to the original one. – When this is fitted to the vehicle, which must only be a temporary measure, the driving speed must not exceed the speed indicated on the label on the wheel. – Fitting an emergency spare wheel may alter the way the vehicle usually runs. Avoid sudden acceleration or deceleration and reduce your speed when cornering. – If you need to use snow chains, fit the emergency spare wheel to the rear axle and check the tyre pressure. 5.2 TYRE PRESSURE KIT (1/3) B A Do not attempt to use the inflation kit if the tyre has been damaged as a result of driving with a puncture. The kit is only approved for inflating the tyres of the vehicle originally equipped with the kit. You should therefore carefully check the condition of the tyre sidewalls before any operation. It must never be used to inflate the tyres of another vehicle, or any other inflatable object (rubber ring, rubber boat, etc.). Driving with underinflated, flat or punctured tyres can be dangerous and may make the tyre impossible to repair. This repair is temporary The kit repairs tyres when tread A has been damaged by objects smaller than 4 mm. It cannot repair all types of puncture, such as cuts larger than 4 mm, or cuts in tyre sidewall B. Ensure also that the wheel rim is in good condition. Do not pull out the foreign body causing the puncture if it is still in the tyre. A tyre which has been punctured should always be inspected (and repaired, where possible) as soon as possible by a specialist. When taking a tyre which has been repaired using this kit to be replaced, you must inform the specialist. When driving, vibration may be felt due to the presence of the repair product injected into the tyre. Avoid spillage on skin when handling the repair liquid bottle. If droplets do leak out, rinse them off with plenty of water. Keep the repair kit away from children. Do not dispose of the empty bottle in the countryside. Return it to your approved dealer or to a recycling organisation. The bottle has a limited service life which is indicated on its label. Check the expiry date. Contact an approved dealer to replace the inflation tube and repair product bottle. 5.3 TYRE PRESSURE KIT (2/3) 1 2 3 Depending on the vehicle, remove the central partition in the storage compartment to access the inflation kit. 4 Open the kit, remove caps 1 and 3 (the cap must not be removed from the bottle) then screw bottle 2 to its base 3. 5 With the engine running and the parking brake applied, 6 8 If a minimum pressure of 1.8 bar is not reached after 15 minutes, repair is not possible; do not drive the vehicle but contact an approved dealer. – unscrew the valve cap on the wheel concerned and screw inflation adapter 6 onto the valve; 7 Depending on the vehicle, in the event of a puncture, use the kit located underneath the luggage compartment carpet. – connect adapter 8 to the accessories socket on the dashboard of the vehicle; – press switch 5 to inflate the tyre to the recommended pressure (check the label affixed to the edge of the driver’s door); – after a maximum of 5 minutes, stop inflating and read the pressure (on pressure gauge 4); Before using this kit, park the vehicle at a sufficient distance from traffic, switch on the hazard warning lights, apply the handbrake, ask all passengers to leave the vehicle and keep them away from traffic. 5.4 – adjust the pressure: to increase it, continue inflating with the kit, to reduce it, turn button 7 located on the inflation adapter. Note: while the bottle is emptying (approximately 30 seconds), pressure gauge 4 will briefly indicate a pressure of 6 bar, then the pressure will drop. If the vehicle is parked on the hard shoulder, you must warn other road users of your vehicle’s presence with a warning triangle or with other devices as per the legislation applying to the country you are in. TYRE PRESSURE KIT (3/3) – affix driving recommendation label 9 to the dashboard where it can easily be seen by the driver; – store the kit; 9 8 Once the tyre is inflated correctly: – stop using the kit; – close the integrated cap on the bottle again; – disconnect adapter 8; Nothing should be placed around the driver’s feet as such objects may slide under the pedals during sudden braking manoeuvres and obstruct their use. – after the first inflation procedure the tyre will still be leaking; it is vital to drive in order to plug the hole; – start immediately and drive at between 12 and 36 mph (20 and 60 km/h) to distribute the product evenly throughout the tyre, stopping after a distance of 2 miles (3 kilometres) to check the pressure; – If the pressure is above 1.3 bar but lower than the recommended pressure, readjust it (refer to the label affixed to the edge of the driver’s door), otherwise contact an approved dealer: repair is not possible. Note: after using the inflation kit, you should visit an approved Dealer to replace the inflation hose and the bottle of repair product. Precautions when using the kit The kit should not be operated for more than 15 consecutive minutes. Please be aware that a poorly tightened or missing valve cap can make the tyres less airtight and lead to pressure loss. Always use valve caps identical to those fitted originally and tighten them fully. Following repair with the kit, do not travel further than 120 miles (200 km). In addition, reduce your speed and under no circumstances exceed 48 mph (80 km/h). The sticker, which you must affix in a prominent position on the dashboard, reminds you of this. Depending on the country or local legislation, a tyre repaired with the inflation kit may need to be replaced. 5.5 TOOL KIT/WHEEL TRIM – WHEEL Wheelbrace 1 2 Jack 2 When replacing the jack, fold it correctly and position the wheelbrace correctly before replacing it in its position. 1 3 4 5 The tool kit is located in the luggage compartment: lift the carpet. Hubcap tool 3 This tool is used to remove the wheel trims. Wheel bolt guide 4 To finish loosening or starting to tighten the wheel bolts. Towing hitch 5 Refer to the information on “Towing” in Section 5. The tools included in the tool kit depend on the vehicle. Do not leave the tools unsecured inside the vehicle as they may come loose under braking. After use, check that all the tools are correctly clipped into the tool kit, then position it correctly in its housing: there is a risk of injury. If wheel bolts are supplied in the tool kit, only use these bolts for the emergency spare wheel: refer to the label affixed to the emergency spare wheel. The jack is designed for wheel changing purposes only. Under no circumstances should it be used for carrying out repairs underneath the vehicle or to gain access to the underside of the vehicle. 5.6 E C D B 6 Wheel trim Remove it using the hubcap tool 3 by connecting the hook in the recess provided next to the valve 6 (to attach the metal clip). To refit wheel trim, align it with valve 6. Push the retaining hooks in fully, starting with side B near the valve, followed by C and D, finishing at E opposite the valve. Note: if you are using anti-theft bolts, refer to the information on “Changing a wheel”. Changing a wheel (1/2) 3 Vehicles equipped with a jack and wheelbrace If necessary, remove the wheel trim. 1 2 Use the wheelbrace 3 to slacken off the wheel bolts. Position it so as to be able to push from above. Offer up the jack 4 horizontally; the jack head must be lined up with jacking point 1 located on the underside of the sill, closest to the wheel concerned, as shown by arrow 2. Start cranking the jack up by hand to align the base plate (which should be pushed slightly under the vehicle). Turn the wheelbrace until the wheel lifts off the ground. 4 Switch on the hazard warning lights. Keep the vehicle away from traffic and on a level surface where it will not slip (if necessary, place a solid support under the jack base). Apply the parking brake and engage a gear (first or reverse, or P for automatic transmissions). Ask all the passengers to leave the vehicle and keep them away from traffic. If the vehicle is not equipped with a jack or wheelbrace, you can obtain these from your approved dealer. If the vehicle is parked on the hard shoulder, you must warn other road users of your vehicle’s presence with a warning triangle or with other devices as per the legislation applying to the country you are in. To prevent any risk of injury or damage to the vehicle, only crank the jack until the wheel you are replacing is a maximum of 3 centimetres off the ground. 5.7 CHANGING A WHEEL (2/2) Undo the bolts and take off the wheel. Fit the emergency spare wheel onto the hub and rotate it until the mounting holes in the wheel coincide with those of the hub. If bolts are supplied with the emergency spare wheel, only use these bolts for the emergency spare wheel. Tighten the bolts, checking that the wheel is correctly positioned on its hub and lower the jack. With the wheel on the ground, tighten the bolts fully and have the tightness of the bolts checked (tightening torque: 110 N.m) and the emergency spare wheel pressure checked as soon as possible. Anti-theft bolt If you use anti-theft bolts, fit these nearest the valve (wheel trim may not be able to fit). If you have a puncture, replace the wheel as soon as possible. A tyre which has been punctured should always be inspected (and repaired, where possible) by a specialist. 5.8 Tyres (1/3) Tyre and wheel safety The tyres are the only contact between the vehicle and the road, so it is essential to keep them in good condition. 2 You must make sure that your tyres conform to local road traffic regulations. 1 When the tyre tread has been worn to the level of the wear indicators, they become visible 2: it is then necessary to replace your tyres because the tread rubber is no more than 1.6 mm deep, resulting in poor roadholding on wet roads. An overloaded vehicle, long journeys by motorway, particularly in very hot weather, or continual driving on poorly surfaced minor roads will lead to more rapid tyre wear and affect safety. Maintaining the tyres When they need to be replaced, only tyres of the same make, size, type and profile should be used. Tyres fitted to the vehicle should either be identical to those fitted originally or conform to those recommended by your approved dealer. The tyres must be in good condition and the tread form must have sufficient depth; tyres approved by our Technical Department have wear warning strips 1 that are indicators moulded into the tread at several points. Incidents which occur when driving, such as striking the kerb, may damage the tyres and wheel rims, and could also lead to misalignment of the front or rear axle geometry. In this case, have the condition of these checked by an approved dealer. 5.9 Tyres (2/3) Tyre pressures Adhere to the tyre pressures (including the emergency spare wheel). The tyre pressures should be checked at least once a month and additionally before any long journey (refer to the label affixed to the edge of the driver’s door). Pressures should be checked when the tyres are cold; ignore higher pressures which may be reached in hot weather or following a fast journey. If tyre pressures cannot be checked when the tyres are cold, the normal pressures must be increased by 0.2 to 0.3 bar (or 3 PSI). Never deflate a hot tyre. Incorrect tyre pressures lead to abnormal tyre wear and unusually hot running. These are factors which may seriously affect safety and lead to: Special note Depending on the vehicle, there may be an adapter which needs to be positioned on the valve before air is added. Fitting new tyres For safety reasons, this operation must be carried out by a specialist. Fitting different tyres may change your vehicle as follows: – It may mean that your vehicle no longer conforms to current regulations; – It may change the way it handles when cornering; – It may cause the steering to be heavy; – It may affect the use of snow chains. – poor road holding, – risk of bursting or tread separation. The pressure depends on the load and the speed of use. Adjust the pressure according to the conditions of use (refer to the label affixed to the edge of the driver’s door). 5.10 Please be aware that a poorly tightened or missing valve cap can make the tyres less airtight and lead to pressure loss. Always use valve caps identical to those fitted originally and tighten them fully. Emergency spare wheel Refer to the information on the “Emergency spare wheel” and instructions on “Changing a wheel” in Section 5. Tyres (3/3) Use in winter Chains For safety reasons, fitting snow chains to the rear axle is strictly forbidden. Chains cannot be fitted to tyres which are larger than those originally fitted to the vehicle. Studded tyres This type of equipment may only be used for a limited period and as laid down by local legislation. It is necessary to observe the speed specified by current legislation. These tyres must, at a minimum, be fitted to the two front wheels. Snow or Winter tyres We would recommend that these be fitted to all four wheels to ensure that your vehicle retains maximum adhesion. Warning: These tyres sometimes have a specific direction of rotation and a maximum speed index which may be lower than the maximum speed of your vehicle. In all cases, we would recommend that you contact an approved dealer who will be able to advise you on the choice of equipment which is most suitable for your vehicle. Changing a wheel 18” wheels cannot be fitted with chains. If you wish to fit snow chains, you must use special equipment. As the tyre pressure monitor may take several minutes following driving to correctly determine the positions of the wheels and the pressure values, check the tyre pressures following any operation.

At night, the vehicle must be lit. Once you have finished towing, press the engine start button twice (risk of running down the battery). The speed specified by current legislation for towing must always be observed. If your vehicle is the towing vehicle, do not exceed the maximum towing weight for your vehicle (refer to the information on “Weights” in Section 6). Towing a vehicle with an automatic gearbox With the engine switched off, the transmission is no longer lubricated. It is preferable to tow this type of vehicle on a trailer or tow it with the front wheels off the ground. Under exceptional circumstances, you may tow the vehicle with all four wheels on the ground, only going forward, with the gear lever in the N position, and for a distance not exceeding 50 miles (80 km). 1 2 If the lever is stuck in P, even though you are depressing the brake pedal, the lever can be released manually. To do this, insert a rigid rod in the hole 2, press the rod and unlocking button 1 located on the lever simultaneously. Do not remove the RENAULT card from the reader when the vehicle is being towed. 5.31 Towing: breakdown (2/2) – Use a rigid towing bar. If a rope or cable is used (where the law allows this), the vehicle being towed must be able to brake. 3 5 4 6 7 4 Only use the front 3 and rear 6 towing points (never use the drive shafts or any other part of the vehicle). These towing points may only be used for towing: never use them for lifting the vehicle directly or indirectly. Access to towing points – A vehicle must not be towed if it is not fit to be driven. – Avoid accelerating or braking suddenly when towing, as this may result in damage being caused to the vehicle. – When towing a vehicle, it is advisable not to exceed 30 mph (50 km/h). Unclip cover 5 or 7 by sliding a flat tool (or the key integrated in the RENAULT card) under the cover. Tighten towing hitch 4 fully: as much as possible by hand at first, then finish tightening it using the wheelbrace. Use only towing hitch 4 and the wheelbrace located under the luggage compartment carpet in the tool kit (please refer to the information under “Tool kit” in Section 5). When the engine is stopped, steering and braking assistance are not operational. 5.32 Do not leave the tools unsecured inside the vehicle as they may come loose under braking.
