ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM: ABS (continued)
One of two situations may arise if
there is a fault in the ABS system:
1 - Orange warning lights
x
and light up on the
instrument panel.
Braking is still performed, but
without the ABS system. Contact
a RENAULT Dealer as soon as
possible.
The braking modulation provided
by the ABS is independent of the
effort applied to the brake pedal. In
an emergency, apply firm and
continuous pressure to the brake
pedal There is no need to pump it
repeatedly.
2.23
2 - The orange x
warning light and the red
dbrake fault warning
light accompanied by and
ûand, depending on vehicle,
the message Brake fault are
illuminated on the instrument panel.
This indicates that both the braking
system and the ABS system are
faulty. Your braking systems are only
partially operational. However, it is
dangerous to brake suddenly and it
is essential to stop immediately, as
soon as traffic conditions allow.
Contact a RENAULT Dealer.

EMERGENCY BRAKE ASSIST
This system is complementary to
ABS and helps reduce vehicle
stopping distances.
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 not released.
Hazard warning lights switching
on
Depending on the vehicle, these
may light up in the event of sudden
deceleration.This function is an
additional aid in case of
critical driving conditions
to enable the vehicle
behaviour to be adapted to suit the
driving conditions.
However, the function does not take
the place of the driver. I t does not
increase the vehicle’s limits and
should not encourage you to drive
more quickly.
Therefore, it 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).

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: limiter function
The speed limiter function helps
you stay within the driving speed
limit that you choose.
This may be useful, for example, in
town driving or in areas with speed
restriction (roadworks), etc.
The system operates from a driving
speed of about 18 mph (30 km/h).Controls
1 On/Off switch.
2 Limit speed storage and increase

Indicator light 6î
This orange indicator light on the
instrument panel lights up to
indicate that the limiter function is
in operation.
When the function is activated, the
message “Limiter” appears on the

CLIMATE CONTROL (continued)
Air recirculation mode
Pressing button 14activates air
recirculation (the symbol lights up
on the display).
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 isolated (when
driving in polluted areas, etc.). Prolonged use of this function 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
normal mode (external air or
automatic recirculation) as soon as
air recirculation is no longer
needed, by pressing button
14.
