EXTERIOR LIGHTING AND SIGNALS (continued)Switching off the lights
Manual operation
There are two possibilities:
- return stalk 1to its original
position;
- the lights go out when the engine is stopped, when the driver’s door is
opened or when the vehicle is
locked. In this case, the next time
the engine is started the lights will
be switched back on according to
the position of the stalk 1.
Automatic operation (depending on
vehicle)
The lights go out when the engine is
stopped, when the driver’s door is
opened or when the vehicle is
locked.
Lights on warning buzzer
If the lights are on after the engine is
switched off, a warning beep sounds
when the driver’s door is opened to
warn you that the lights are still on.
See me home lighting function
This function (useful, for example,
to light the way when opening a
gate, a garage door, etc.), enables you
to temporarily switch on the dipped
beam headlights.
With the engine and the lights
switched off
, and the end of the
switch stalk 1 in position 0, pull the
switch stalk 1towards you: the
dipped beam headlights are
switched on for approximately
thirty seconds.
This action may be carried out no
more than four times for a maximum
lighting period of two minutes.
To switch off the lights before they
go out automatically, turn the end of
stalk 1, then return it to position 0.
Switching on the main ábeam headlights
With the dipped beam headlights lit,
pull the stalk towards you.
When the main beam headlights are
lit up, an indicator light lights up on
the instrument panel.
To return to the dipped headlight
position, pull the stalk towards you.

No modifications what-
soever are permitted on
any part of the fuel supply
system (computers, wir-
ing, fuel circuit, injector, pro-
tection covers, etc.) as this may be
dangerous (such work must only
be undertaken by qualified
RENAULT Network personnel).
FUEL TANK (continued)
Filling up with fuel
Petrol versions
Using leaded petrol will damage the
anti-pollution devices 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).
- Insert the nozzle so that the metal valve is pushed back and then fully
insert it before beginning to fill the
tank (risk of splash-back).
- Keep the nozzle in this position throughout the entire filling
operation.
Persistent fuel odour
If you notice a persistent fuel odour
you should:
 stop the vehicle when traffic conditions allow and switch off
the ignition;
 switch on the hazard warning lights and ask your passengers to
leave the vehicle and to keep away
from the traffic;
 not work on, or restart, the vehicle before it has been inspected by
qualified staff from the RENAULT
Network.
Filling up with fuel (continued)
Petrol and diesel versions
No more than two filling operations
may be made after the fuel feed has
switched off automatically for the
first time because there must be
sufficient space in the fuel tank to
allow for expansion.

- air conditioning stops automaticallyeven if button Fis activated (the
indicator light remains lit);
- the ventilation speed of air in the passenger compartment is zero;
- there is, however, a slight flow of air when the vehicle is moving.
This position should not normally
be used.
Switching air conditioning
on or off
The air conditioning is switched on
(indicator light on) or off (indicator
light off) using button F.

CLIMATE CONTROL (continued)
Ambient temperature: (automatic
mode)
(continued)
Operation
To reach and keep the chosen
comfort level and to maintain good
visibility, the system controls:
- ventilation speed,
- the air distribution,
- the air recirculation management,
- starting and stopping of the air conditioning,
- the air temperature.Adjusting automatic mode
The automatic mode is the normal
operating mode of the system but
you may alter the selections made
by the system (air distribution, etc.).
These options are explained on the
following pages.
The displayed temperature values
show a comfort level.
When the vehicle is started in cold
or hot weather, increasing or
decreasing the values displayed
does not mean that the temperature
is reached more quickly, whatever
the indicated temperature may be,
the system optimises the increase
or decrease in temperature (the
ventilation system does not start
instantly at maximum speed: it
gradually increases until the
engine temperature is sufficient,
which may take from a few seconds
to several minutes).
Generally speaking, unless there is
a particular fault, the dashboard air
vents should remain open.
The automatic mode is the
recommended mode of use: in
this mode the automatic climate
control system guarantees comfort
in the passenger compartment and
good visibility (except in the event
of extreme conditions), while
optimising consumption. The
types of adjustments that can be
made are described on the
following pages.
Return to automatic mode as
soon as possible.

BATTERY: troubleshooting
To avoid all risk of sparks:
- Ensure that any consumers(courtesy lights etc.) are switched
off before disconnecting or
reconnecting the battery.
- When charging, stop the charger before connecting or disconnecting
the battery.
- Do not place metal objects on the battery to avoid creating a short
circuit between the terminals.
- Never disconnect a battery less than twenty seconds after the
engine has been switched off.
- Make sure that you reconnect the battery terminals after refitting. Handle the battery with care
as it contains sulphuric acid
which must not come into
contact with the eyes or
skin. If it does, wash the affected
area with plenty of cold water.
Ensure that naked flames, red hot
objects and sparks do not come into
contact with the battery as there is a
risk of explosion.
Take care when working in the
engine compartment as the engine
cooling fan may start to operate at
any moment without warning.
Risk of injury.
