AIR CONDITIONING(continued)
In very hot weather or when the
vehicle has been parked in the sun,
open the doors for a few moments to
let the hot air escape before starting
off.
Air recycling allows the desired
temperature setting to be achieved
more quickly. Switch off recycling
mode as soon as the desired
temperature is reached.When the air conditioning system is
operating, all windows must be
closed for maximum efficiency.
If there is an operating fault, consult
your Renault Dealer.
If no cool air is produced
Check that the controls are set
correctly and that the fuses are in
good condition. If both these points
are correct, switch off the system
(tell-tale lightDextinguished) and
consult a Renault Dealer.
Do not open the
refrigerant circuit: this
may cause injury to the
eyes or skin.

FUSES
Fuse box1
If an incident occurs in an electrical
component, check first of all that
the fuses are sound. Also make sure
that the faulty component is
correctly connected. If a short
circuit occurs, unscrew one of the
wing nuts on the battery posts to
isolate the battery.
Open the cover2(under the steering
wheel).To identify the fuses, refer to label4
(shown on the page opposite).
It is advisable not to use the free
fuse locations.
Check the fuse in
question andreplace it,
if necessary,with a fuse
which must be of the
same rating as the original fuse
If a fuse is fitted where the rating
is too high, it may cause the
electrical circuit to overheat (risk
offire)intheeventofanitemof
equipment using an excessive
amount of current.
CORRECT INCORRECT
Use tweezers3to remove the fuse.
Toremovethefusefromthe
tweezers, slide the fuse to the side.
A wise precaution:
Obtain a box of spare bulbs and
fuses from your Renault Dealer.

ACCESSORIES
Using mobile phones and
CB equipment
Mobile phones and CB
equipment with integrated
aerials may cause interference to
the original electronic systems
fitted to the vehicle: it is advisable
only to use equipment with an
external aerial.
Also, for your own safety, we
would advise you always to take
account of traffic conditions and
not to use this type of equipment
when you are driving.After-sales installation of
electric or electronic
accessories
•Anyworkontheelectric
circuit of the vehicle must be
carried out by Renault network
engineers: if the system is
connected incorrectly, it may
result in damage being caused to
the electrical installation and/or
the units connected to it.
• If the vehicle is retrofitted with
any electrical equipment, make
sure that the unit is correctly
protected by a fuse. Ask for
information on the rating and
position of this fuse.
After-sales installation of
non-electrical accessories (roof
bars, towing attachments, etc.)
Accessories approved by Renault
are based on a strict specification
and are regularly tested. We would
recommend that you use approved
accessories (particularly where
these affect safety) because they are
particularly reliable and
appropriate for your vehicle.
