Insert the key in the ignition switch, or the card in the reader, to unlock the steering wheel and use the sig- nalling lights (brake lights, indica- tors, etc.). The towed vehicle’s lights must be switched on at night.
The speed specified by current legisla- tion 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).
Only use the front towing points 3 and rear towing points 4 (never use the drive shafts). These towing points may only be used for towing: never use them for lifting the vehicle directly or in- directly.
Access to towing pointsUnclip by pulling towards you and lift
cover 1 or 5 (depending on the vehi- cle).Screw in towing hitch 2 fully: as much as possible by hand at first, then finish by tightening it using the wheelbrace.
Towing hitch 2 and the wheelbrace are located under the luggage compartment carpet in the tool kit (refer to the infor- mation on the “Tool kit” in Section 5).

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 vehi- cle 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 Neutral position, and for a distance not exceeding 30 miles (50 km).
If the lever is stuck in P, even though you are de- pressing the brake pedal, the lever can be released manually.
To do this, unclip the upper sec-
tion of the cover at the base of the lever.
Press simultaneously on the mark on the gaiter and the unlocking button on the lever.
– Use a rigid towing bar. If a rope or cable is used (where the law allows this), the ve- hicle being towed must be able to brake.
– A vehicle must not be towed if it is
not fit to be driven.
– Avoid accelerating or braking sud
- denly when towing, as this may result in damage being caused to the vehicle.
– When towing a vehicle, it is ad
- visable not to exceed 15 mph (25 km/h).
– Do not push the vehicle if the
steering column is locked.
Towing procedure
Before any towing, check that the steer- ing column is not locked.
If it is locked, insert the RENAULT card into the reader and press the Start/Stop button for five seconds without press- ing on the pedals. The steering column unlocks and the vehicle accessories functions are supplied.
Leave the card in the reader while towing.
Press the Start/Stop button twice in succession once towing is finished (risk of running down the battery).
TOWING: breakdown (2/3)
Do not leave the tools unse- cured inside the vehicle as they may come loose under braking.
When the engine is stopped, steering and braking assist- ance are not operational.

On the roadPOSSIBLE CAUSESACTION REQUIRED
Steering wheel hard to turn:– assistance overheating,Leave to cool.
– weak or dead battery.
Recharge or replace the battery.
The engine overheats. The coolant tem- perature warning light comes on (or the indicator needle is in the red area).
Coolant pump: belt stretched or broken.Engine cooling fan not working.Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and contact an approved Dealer.
Coolant leaks.Check the condition of hoses and clips.
Check the coolant reservoir: it should contain fluid. If it does not, top it up (once it has cooled). Take care not to scald yourself. This action is only temporary; consult your approved Dealer as soon as possible.
OPERATING FAULTS (6/8)
Radiator: If there is a significant lack of coolant, remember that it must never be topped up using cold coolant while the engine is very warm. After any procedure on the vehicle which has involved even partial draining of the cooling system, it must be refilled with a new mixture prepared in the correct proportions. Reminder: only products approved by our Technical Department may be used for this purpose.
