RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY.
FRONT SEATS
Move forward or backward
Lift the lever 1 to release and move the seat forward or backward. Release the lever 1 in desired position of seat and ensure that the seat is fully locked into place.
To tilt the seatback
Lift knob 2 upward to unlock recliner mechanism. Tilt the seat back to desired position and release knob. Ensure seat back is locked properly after release.
For safety reasons, carry out any adjustments when the vehicle is not being driven.
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.
SEAT BELTS (1/3)
Adjusting the seat belts
Sit with your back firmly against the seatback.
The shoulder strap 1 should be as close as possible to the base of the neck but not on it.
Lap belt 2 must be worn flat over the thighs and against the pelvis. The seat belt must be worn as close to the body as possible. i.e.: avoid wearing heavy clothing or keeping bulky objects under the belts, etc.
Before starting, first adjust your driving position, then ask all occupants to adjust their seat belts to ensure optimum protection.
Adjusting your driving position (depending on the vehicle)
- Sit well back in your seat (having removed your coat or jacket etc.). 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.
-
Ensure that no objects are placed in the area around the seat belt latch as they could prevent it from being overly secured.
-
Make sure the seat belt latch is properly positioned (it should not be hidden away, crushed or flattened by people or objects).
Always wear your seat belt when travelling in your vehicle. You must also comply with the legislation of the particular country you are in.
Make sure that the rear bench seat is locked in correct position so that the rear seat belts will operate efficiently. Refer to the information on the Seats in Section 1.
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.
To fasten
Unwind the belt slowly and smoothly and ensure that buckle 3 locks into latch 5 (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.
Unlocking
Press the button 4 on latch 5 and the seat belt will be rewound by the inertia reel. Hold by the buckle to make this easier.
- No modification may be made to the component parts of the originally fitted restraint
system:seat 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.
- 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.
- 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 latch.
SEAT BELTS (3/3)
Adjusting the rear seat belts
Follow the same instructions of front seat belts to adjust/fasten/unolicking the rear seat belts.
Adjust the seat belt strap as indicated in the image for height adjustment.
SAFETY SYSTEMS IN ADDITION TO THE SEAT BELTS (1/2)
Depending on the vehicle, they are composed of :
- seat belt locking ;
front airbag for driver 1.
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;
-airbag
-
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.
-
To avoid premature triggering of the system which may cause injury, only qualified Network personnel are authorised to work on the methods of restraint in addition to the front seat belt.
- 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 airbag gas generators.
Warnings concerning the driver's air bag
SAFETY SYSTEMS IN ADDITION TO THE SEAT BELTS (2/2)
Driver's air bag 1
It is fitted on the driver's side on the steering wheel.
The airbag is of best use when it is used along with the seat belt.
Air bag system consists of :
-sensors.
Operation
This system is only operational when the ignition is switched on.
If a severe frontal impact occurs, the air bag inflates rapidly, cushioning the impact of the driver's head and chest against the steering wheel. The air bag then deflates immediately so that the driver is not impeded in any way when they get out of the vehicle.
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. An air bag may inflate immediately, causing some minor, superficial grazing to the skin or other discomfort.
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.
CHILD RESTRAINT SEAT provision is given in Rear Left seat belt.
To prevent the doors being opened, use the childproof locks (refer to the information on "Locking/unlocking" in Section 1).
A collision at 50~km / h is the same as falling a distance of 10 metres. Transporting a child without a restraint is equivalent of allowing him or her on a fourthfloor balcony withings.
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 fittings checked.
It is recommended that children and infants are seated in child restraint. You choose a child restraint that fits your vehicle. Always follow the manufacturer's instruction for installation and use. In addition there are many types of child restraint available for larger children that should be used for maximum protection.
Using a child seat
The level of protection offered by the child seat depends on ability to restrain child and on its installation. Incorrect installation risks the protection of the child in the event of harsh braking or an impact.
Before purchasing a child seat, check that it complies with the regulations 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.
CHILD SAFETY: fitting a child seat (1/5)
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 rear seat Left Side.
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):
- deactivate the front passenger air bag;
- 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 seat, check that the air bag has been deactivated (refer to the information on "Deactivating the front passenger air bags" in Section 1).
CHILD SAFETY: fitting a child seat (2/5)
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.
Before fitting a child seat to the ISOFIX anchorages on the rear side seat, ensure that the seat belt buckles are not positioned between the two ISOFIX anchorages on this seat. If necessary, move the buckle from the seat in question towards the centre of the vehicle.
Move the front seat as far forward as possible to install a rear-facing child seat, then move back the seat in front as far as it will go, although without allowing it to come into 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.
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 seats" in Section 1.

STARTING/STOPPING THE ENGINE
Starting problems
To avoid damage, do not keep trying to start the engine (by pushing or towing the vehicle) without having identified and corrected the cause of the fault.
If the fault cannot be identified, do not continue to try and start the engine, but contact an approved dealer.
The following operating conditions should be avoided:
driving for long periods when the low fuel level warning light is lit;
using leaded petrol;
- using fuel or lubrication additives which are not approved.
Operating faults such as:
- faulty ignition, running out of fuel or disconnected spark plugs resulting in the engine misfiring or cutting out when driving;
- loss of power,
may cause overheating, reducing efficiency which may irreparably damage vehicle components and also the vehicle.
If you notice any of the above operating faults, have the necessary repairs carried out as soon as possible by an approved dealer.
These faults may be avoided by regularly taking your vehicle to an approved Dealer at the intervals specified in the Maintenance Schedule.
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.

(vehic1e in stationary condition)
Vehicles with manual gearbox: refer to the grid on the gear lever knob 1.
Pull the release knob in upward direction and then engage the reverse gear.
Gear change indicators
Depending on the vehicle, to obtain optimum consumption levels, an indicator light on the instrument panel lets you know the best time to move up or down a gear.
Depending on the gradient and/or vehicle load, it may be necessary when stationary to apply the brake by a further two notches and a gear (1st or reverse gear).
An impact to the underside of the vehicle while manoeuvring (e.g.: strike-king a post, raised kerb or street furniture) may result in the to the vehicle (e.g.: deform of an axle). To prevent any accident, have your vehicle and by an approved dealer.

Depending on the gradient and/or vehicle load, it may be necessary when stationary to apply the brake by a further two notches and a gear (1st or reverse gear).
ADVICE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (1/3)
Your vehicle has been designed with respect for the environment in mind for its entire service life.
By virtue of its design, moderate fuel consumption and initial settings, your vehicle also conforms to current anti-pollution 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.
Maintenance
It should be noted that failure to respect antipollution regulations may 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 authorised dealer, in accordance with the instructions given in your Owner's Manual: they will have all the equipment necessary for ensuring that your vehicle is maintained to its original standard.
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
Engine adjustments
- ignition: this does not require adjustment.
- spark plugs: for optimum fuel economy, efficiency & performance the specification laid down in Owner's Manual must be strictly applied.
If the spark plugs have to be changed, contact an approved dealer for this.
- idle speed: this does not require adjustment.
- air filter, oil filter: a choked element hinders performance. It must be replaced as per the maintenance schedule.
Emissions
Your vehicle has been designed to emit fewer greenhouse gases (CO2) while in use.
ADVICE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (2/3)
Driving
- Drive carefully for the first few kilometres until the engine reaches its normal operating temperature, rather than let it warm up while the vehicle is stationary.
- Speed is expensive. Sporty driving uses a lot of fuel: drive with a light foot.
-
Study the road ahead so that you are able to brake as little as possible, it can be sufficient just to lift off the accelerator.
-
Avoid sudden acceleration.
- Do not overrev the engine in the intermediate gears. Always use the highest gear possible without labouring the engine.
Make your own contribution towards protecting the environment
- 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 authorised Renault Dealer
- In all cases, comply with local legislation.
ADVICE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (3/3)
Exhaust gas monitoring system
This system detects operating faults in the vehicle's antipollution system. These faults may cause mechanical damage or release of harmful substances.
This warning light on the instrument panel indicates if
there are any faults in the system:
This comes on when the ignition is switched on and goes out after three seconds.
- If it comes on continuously, consult an approved dealer. If it flashes, reduce the engine speed until the light stops flashing. Contact an approved dealer as soon as possible.
-
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.
-
Poor weather conditions, flooded roads. Do not drive through water if it is higher than the lower edge of the wheel rim.
- Avoid using the vehicle for door-to-door journeys (short journeys, with long stops in-between) because in these conditions, the engine never reaches its ideal temperature.
Tyres
Increased fuel consumption could be the result of:
insufficient pressure,
- using non-recommended tyres.
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").
- Driving with the windows open at around 100km / h will increase fuel consumption by approximately 4% .
AUTOMATED MANUAL TRANSMISSION (1/4)
Gear Rotary Shifter 1
This allows you to engage forward gear, reverse and neutral.
Gear shift pattern
Align the letters R/N/D to the red pointer.

D Drive mode
N Neutral
R Reverse mode
NOTE:
- The red pointer is fixed.
- R/N/D is roating switch.
39573
Display
The engaged gear (R/N/D) is indicated on the instrument panel display 2.
In case, gear is not engaged properly, letter R or D will blink on the cluster.
If RN/ND blinks together, this indicates that rotary shifter is not in proper position. Driver advised to shift accordingly.
3 -Brake pedal press warning light.
For safety reasons, do not switch off the ignition before the vehicle has come to a complete standstill.
AUTOMATED MANUAL TRANSMISSION (2/4)
Similar to a vehicle equipped with a manual gearbox, this vehicle is also not able to prevent itself
from rolling on a slope if the handbrake is not applied or the brake pedal not pressed continuously in "N" mode.
The vehicle should always be towed in Ignition OFF condition with neutral position.
In cold weather start the engine and wait for a few seconds before rotating the gear rotary shifter from N to D/R position to prevent engine stall.
NOTE
Once the vehicle is switched to ignition ON position, the gearbox initializes. This produces a light sound. This is normal. Crank the engine after 3 seconds.
Starting the engine
Switch ON ignition. To start engine, keep the key in ignition and wait for 3 seconds to initiate starting sequence.
When starting the engine, always place the rotary knob in "N" position and depress the brake pedal firmly. The engine cannot be started unless the rotary knob is in "N" position and brake pedal is depressed. Do not press accelerator pedal while starting the engine.
Starting off on an uphill/ downhill
- Apply parking brake so that vehicle will not move.
- Shift the rotary gear knob to "D" while depressing the brake pedal. Make sure that gear position indicator displays "D" in cluster.
- Release the brake pedal and depress the accelerator gradually. Once the vehicle starts to move, release the parking brake and continue to depress accelerator to start off.
Creeping
It is a function that enables the vehicle to move very slowly without depressing the accelerator pedal.Follow steps as:
- Start the engine as instructed in "Starting the engine" section.
- With the foot on brake pedal, shift the rotary knob to "D" and ensure "D" glows in cluster permanently.
- Release the parking brake and brake pedal to activate creeping.
NOTE
Brake pedal warning light glows if brake pedal is not pressed when,
- Starting the engine.
- Engine ON and rotary knob shifted from "N" to R/D.
- Ignition is ON and engine is OFF, rotary knob shifted from "N" to R/D.
- Driver door is open and R/D is engaged.
AUTOMATED MANUAL TRANSMISSION (3/4)
Driving in automatic mode
When ignition is switched ON, start the vehicle in neutral "N" with brake pedal pressed, rotate the gear shifter to D to engage drive mode.
The letter D appears on the display. The vehicle is controlled using the accelerator and the brake. Gears will change automatically at the optimal moment.
Automatic mode takes account of:
- The position and speed of depression of the accelerator pedal to assess driving style and select the optimal gear.
- The position and speed of depression of the brake to commence engine braking in preparation for a downshift.
- If the gear does not engage to R/D even the rotary knob is shifted, system shifts automatically after sometime and creates some noise from gears. This does not indicate any malfunction.
However, if the system does not shift automatically, shift gear knob to "N" and again shift to R/D in brake pedal pressed condition.R/D indicator and brake pedal indicator will flash on the cluster if the rotary knob shifted to R/D from "N" without depressing brake pedal.
Reverse gear
With the brake pedal pressed, rotate the gear shifter to R. The letter R displays on the cluster. Release the brake pedal slowly to allow vehicle to move in reverse direction. Press the accelerator pedal gently to increase the speed.
- The engine idle speed (creep function) is sufficient for parking manoeuvres.
To drive, shift the gear from "R" to "D" by rotating the gear rotary lever once the vehicle is stationary. Press brake pedal to engage a gear when vehicle is stationary else, warning light will come on cluster.
When stopped at traffic lights, with the gear engaged in "D", keep the vehicle stationary by continuously pressing the brake pedal without changing the gear shifter to neutral N.
The vehicle will begin moving again:
- Either slowly, if the brake is released without accelerating (e.g. when in a traffic jam).
- Or quickly, by releasing the brake and accelerating.
ACTIONS TO AVOID
- Using accelerator pedal to keep the vehicle stationary on an uphill slope while shifting the gear to R/D will create a warning buzzer sound.
2.Shifting the rotary knob to R/D while depressing the accelerator.
3.Maintaining the vehicle stationary on an uphill slope using creeping function will create a warning buzzer sound.
AUTOMATED MANUAL TRANSMISSION (4/4)
Accelerating and overtaking
-Slowly depress the accelerator pedal to accelerate gradually.
-to obtain maximum vehicle performance, depress the accelerator pedal quickly and completely.
the speed with which the accelerator pedal is depressed is directly related to the speed with which the vehicle automatically shifts to a lower gear to accelerate quickly.
Parking
To park the vehicle, first bring the vehicle to stationary position.
- If the road is flat, then rotate the gear shifter to N and engage the hand-brake and switch off the ignition to complete the parking manoeuvre.
- On a slope, it is recommended to keep the gear shifter in R/D, engage the handbrake and switch off the ignition to complete the parking manoeuvre.
Precautions in Drive mode
- If the vehicle is kept stationary on a slope for too long without applying the brakes or handbrake, it will strain the system and there is a risk that the clutch will overheat.
In this case, an intermittent beeping sound will indicate that the brake pedal or hand brake needs to be applied.
- Never leave the vehicle with the engine running with gear engaged condition.
- A warning light related to brake application will appear on the cluster if brake/handbrake is not applied.
- If engine ON and the vehicle is stationary, it is recommended to keep the brake pedal in pressed condition.
Towing your automated manual transmission vehicle
If the gear is engaged in R/D,
- Switch on the ignition.
- Press brake pedal.
- Select neutral (N).
- Release Brake pedal.
- Check that gear engaged in "N" by ensuring permanent display of letter N in cluster.
- Turn OFF ignition.
If neutral is not engaged and no indication in cluster, must tow the vehicle with the front wheels raised.
Stopping the vehicle
The vehicle can be stopped by depressing the brake pedal regardless of gear position. This is because, clutch is automatically disengaged to prevent the engine from stopping.

The controls will depend on the vehicle equipment level.
1 Air temperature adjuster.
2 Switching air conditioning on or off.
3 Adjusting the ventilation fan speed.
4 Distribution of Air.
5 Switching passenger compartment to isolation mode / air recirculation mode.
Information and advice on use: refer to information on "Air conditioning: information and advice on use".
Adjusting the air temperature
Turn control 1 to obtain the desired temperature. The further towards the red the slide is, the higher the temperature will be.
Adjusting the ventilation fan speed.
Turn control 3 from 0 to 4. The further to the right it is positioned, the more air is blown into the passenger compartment. If you want to shut off the flow of air completely and stop the system, set control 3 to 0.
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.
Leaving this control in position 0 for prolonged periods can lead to condensation forming on the side windows and windscreen and problems due to the use of non-renewed air in the passenger compartment.
HEATING, VENTILATION, AIR CONDITIONING (2/2)
Switching passenger compartment isolation mode/ air recirculation mode on.
Bring lever 5 to position
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 used to:
to isolate the passenger compartment from the external atmosphere
- to bring the passenger compartment to the desired temperature as quickly as possible.
Rapid demisting
Turn controls 1, 3 and 4 to positions
- Turn control 1 on full hot position
- Turn control 3 on max speed position 4
- Turn control 4 to full defrost mode.
- move slider knob 5 to fresh air mode. Using the climate control increases the speed of demisting.
Information and advice on use: refer to information on "Air conditioning: information and advice on use".
Prolonged use of air recirculation can lead to condensation forming on the windscreen, and discomfort due to the use of non-renewed air in the passenger compartment.
You are therefore advised to pick-up external air as soon as the air recirculation function is no longer required, by sliding control 5 to the right.
Fuel consumption
You will normally notice an increase in fuel consumption (especially when driving in town) when the air conditioning is operating.
Advice for reducing consumption and helping to preserve the environment
Drive with the air vents open and the windows closed.

ENGINE OIL LEVEL: topping up, filling (1/3)
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 1,000 kms 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.
In order to prevent splashback, it is recommended that a funnel be used when topping up/filling with oil.
Consult your approved dealer at once if you notice an abnormal or repeated drop in any of the fluid levels
Reading the oil level
- Remove the dipstick and wipe with a clean, lint-free cloth;
Guide the dipstick in as far as it will go (for vehicles equipped with a captype dipstick, 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 or exceed maximum mark.
Once the operation has been completed, ensure that the dipstick is guided in as far as it will go or that the "cap-type dipstick" is completely screwed in.
Exceeding the maximum engine oil level
Under no circumstances must the maximum fill level be exceeded: risk of damage to the engine and catalytic converter. If the oil level exceeds the maximum level, do not start your vehicle and contact an approved Dealer.
Before performing any action in the engine compartment, the ignition must be switched off by pressing one stop button (please see formation on "Starting, stop engine" in Section 2).
ENGINE OIL LEVEL: topping up, filling (2/3)
Topping up/Filling
The vehicle must be parked on level ground and the engine should be cold (for instance, before the engine is started up for the first time in the day).
Do not exceed the max level and do not forget to refit cap 1.
- Unscrew cap 1;
top up the level (as a guide, the capacity between the minimum and maximum reading on the dipstick 2 is approximately 0.85 litres,(depending on the engine);
- wait for approximately 20 minutes to allow the oil to flow into the engine;
- check the level using the dipstick 2 (as described above).
Once the level has been read, ensure that the "cap-type dipstick" is completely screwed in.
In order to prevent splashback, it is recommended that a funnel be used when topping up/filling with oil.
Consult an approved dealer at once if you notice an abnormal or repeated drop in any of the fluid levels
Never run the engine in an enclosed space as exhaust gases are poisonous.
The engine may be hot during operations in close proximity. In addition, the engine cooling fan may run at any moment.

Take care when topping up the oil that no oil drips onto engine components.
RISK OF FIRE
Rememebr to re-fit the cap securely as there is a risk of fire if oil splashes onto hot engine components.
LEVELS (1/2)
Brake fluid level
This should be checked frequently, and immediately if you notice even the slightest loss in braking efficiency. The level should be read with the engine switched off and on level ground.
The engine may be hot during operations in close proximity. In addition, the engine cooling fan can run at any moment.
Risk of Burns and Injury.
Level 1
It is normal for the level to drop as the brake shoes become worn, but it must never drop lower than the "MIN" warning line shown on brake fluid reservoir.
If you wish to check the disc and drum wear yourself, you should obtain the document explaining the checking procedure from the approved dealer network or from the manufacturer's web site.
Topping Up
After any operation on the hydraulic circuit, a specialist must replace the fluid. Only use fluids approved by RENAULT and which have been taken from a sealed container.
Consult your approved dealer at once if you notice an abnormal or repeated drop in any of the fluid
levels. No operations should be carried out on the cooling circuit when the engine is hot.
Windscreen washer
Topping up
With the engine switched off, open the cap.Fill 2 until you can see the fluid, then replace the cap.
Liquid: Special windscreen washer fluid (antifreeze product for winter).
Jets: Use a tool such as a needle to adjust the height of the windscreen washer jets.
Coolant
With the engine switched off and on ground level, the level when cold must be between the MIN and MAX marks on reservoir 3.
Top this level up when cold before it reaches the MIN mark.
No operations should be carried out on the cooling circuit when the engine is hot.
Risk of burns.
Checking intervals
Check the coolant level regularly (very severe damage is likely to be caused to the engine if it runs out of coolant).
If the level needs to be topped up, only use products approved by our Technical Department which ensure:
- protection against freezing;
- anti-corrosion protection of the cooling system.
Replacement intervals
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule for your vehicle.
Consult an approved dealer at once if you notice an abnormal or repeated drop in any of the fluid levels.

BODYWORK MAINTENANCE (1/2)
A well-maintained vehicle will last longer. It is therefore recommended to maintain the exterior of the vehicle regularly.
Your vehicle has been treated with very effective anti-corrosion products. It is nevertheless subject to various outside influences.
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.).
Minor impacts
Abrasive action
Dust and sand in the air, mud, road grit thrown up by other vehicles, etc.
You should take a number of minor precautions in order to safeguard your vehicle against such risks.
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 doors) and painted plastic external fittings (e.g. bumpers) using high-pressure cleaning equipment or by spraying on products not approved by our Technical Department. Doing this could give rise to corrosion or operational faults.
Wash the vehicle in bright sunlight or freezing temperatures.
Scrape off mud or dirt without prewetting.
Allow dirt to accumulate on the exterior.
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 in snow or muddy conditions without washing the vehicle, particularly under the wheel arches and body.
You should
Wash your car frequently, with the engine off, with cleaning products recommended by the manufacturer (never use abrasive products). Rinse thoroughly 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.
Remove any plant matter (resin, leaves, etc.) from the vehicle regularly.
BODYWORK MAINTENANCE (2/2)
Respect local regulations about washing vehicles (e.g. do not wash your vehicle on a public highway).
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 Document.
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.
We have selected special products to care for your vehicle and you can obtain these from the manufacturer's accessory outlets.

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."
TYRES (1/3)
The tyres are the only contact between the vehicle and the road, so it is essential to keep them in good condition. You must make sure that your tyres conform to local road traffic regulations.
For your safety, please respect the speed limit.
When they need to be replaced, only tyres of the same make, size, type and profile should be used on a single axle.
They must: either have a load capacity and a speed capacity at least equal to the original tyres, or correspond to those recommended by your authorised dealer.
Failure to heed these instructions could endanger your safety and affect your vehicle's roadworthiness.
Risk of loss of control of the vehicle.
Maintaining the tyres
The tyres must be in good condition and the tread form must have sufficient depth; tyres approved by our Technical Department have tread wear indicators 1 which are indicators moulded into the tread at several points.
When the tread has worn down to the wear warning strips, these strips will become visible 2: it is then necessary to replace your tyres because the tread rubber is now only 1.6mm deep at most, resulting in poor road holding 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.
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.
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).
Incorrect tyre pressures
lead to abnormal tyre wear and unusually hot running.
These are factors which may seriously affect safety and lead to:
- 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).
The pressures should be checked cold: ignore higher pressures which may be reached in hot weather or following a high speed journey.
If the tyre pressures cannot be checked when the tyres are cold, increase the pressures from 0.2 to 0.3 bar (or 3 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.
Special note
Depending on the vehicle, there may be an adapter which needs to be positioned on the valve before air is added.
Please be aware that a poorly tightened or missing valve cap can make the tyres less airtight and lead sure loss.
Always use valve caps identical to those fitted originally and tighten them fully.
Emergency spare wheel
Refer to the information on "Changing a wheel" in Section 5.
Changing wheels around
This practice is not recommended.
TYRES (3/3)
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 change the way it handles when cornering;
- it may cause the steering to be heavy;
- It may affect the use of snow chains.
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.
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.
Changing a wheel
As the tyre pressure monitor may take several minutes to correctly determine the positions of the wheels and the pressure values after driving, check the tyre pressures following any operation.
Snow chains may only be fitted to tyres of the same size as those originally fitted to your 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 recommend that these be fitted to all four wheelers to ensure that your vehicle remains maximum adhesion.
Warning:
