ADVICE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (2/3)
– Avoid sudden acceleration.
– Brake as little as possible. If you an-
ticipate an obstacle or bend in ad -
vance, you may then simply release
the accelerator pedal.
– 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.
– Double declutching and accelerating
before switching off are unnecessary
in modern vehicles.
– Bad weather, flooded roads:
Do not drive through floods
if the water is above the
lower edge of the wheel
rims.
Driving– Drive carefully for the first few miles
until the engine reaches its normal
operating temperature, rather than
let it warm up while the vehicle is sta-
tionary.
– Speed is expensive.
– Sporty driving uses a lot of fuel: drive
with a light right foot.
– Do not overrev the engine in the in-
termediate gears.
Always use the highest gear possi -
ble without labouring the engine.
On versions with an automatic gear-
box, it is preferable to keep the gear
lever in position D.
Exhaust gas monitoring
system
The exhaust gas monitoring system will
detect any operating faults in the vehi-
cle’s antipollution system.
If this system malfunctions, toxic sub -
stances may be released into the at -
mosphere or damage may occur.
ÄThis warning light on the in -
strument panel will indicate if
there are any faults in the system:
This lights up when the ignition is
switched on and goes out when the
engine is started.
– If it lights up continuously, consult an
approved Dealer as soon as possi -
ble;
– if it flashes, reduce the engine speed
until the light stops flashing. Contact
your approved dealer as soon as
possible.
Obstructions to the driver
On the driver ’s side, only
use mats adapted to the ve-
hicle that attach to the pre-
installed parts, and regularly check
their mounting. Do not place several
mats on top of each other.

Système antiblocage des roues : ABS (X85 - B85 - C85 - S85 - K85 - Renault)
ENG_NU_853-7_BCSK85_Renault_2
The braking modulation provided by
the ABS is independent of the effort
applied to the brake pedal. In an
emergency, apply firm and contin-
uous pressure to the brake pedal
There is no need to pump it repeat-
edly.
2 – The orange warning
light
x and the red
brake fault warning light
D along with © and
® and the message ‘brake
fault’ light up on the instrument
panel.
This indicates that both the brak -
ing 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 immedi -
ately, as soon as traffic conditions
allow. Contact an approved Dealer.
One of two situations may arise if there
is a fault in the ABS system:
1 – The orange warning lights
x
and
© light up on the instru-
ment panel.
Braking is still performed, but with -
out the ABS system. Contact an ap-
proved Dealer as soon as possible.

ENG_NU_853-7_BCSK85_Renault_2
Deactivating the A.S.R.
function results in the E.S.P.
function being deactivated.
Refer to the information on
the “Traction control: ASR” on the
following pages.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operat -
ing fault the message “Check ESP” ap-
pears on the instrument panel along
with warning lights
© and A.
Consult an approved dealer.
Disabling the function
The function is deactivated by pressing
switch 1 ; warning light A will come on
to warn you that the system has been
deactivated.
This action also deactivates the trac -
tion control mechanism: the message
‘ASR deselected’ appears on the in -
strument panel. Refer to the informa -
tion on “Traction control” in the follow -
ing pages.
Correct this as soon as possible by
pressing switch 1 again.
The function is reactivated automati -
cally when the ignition is switched on or
when a speed of approximately 30 mph
(50 km/h) is exceeded.
It is impossible to deselect this function
when travelling above a threshold of
approximately 30 mph (50 km/h).

Assistance au freinage d urgence (X85 - B85 - C85 - S85 - K85 - Renault\
)
ENG_NU_853-7_BCSK85_Renault_2
Emergency brake assist
This function is an addi -
tional aid in the event of
critical driving conditions,
enabling the vehicle behav -
iour to be adapted to suit the driving
conditions.
However, the function does not take
the place of the driver. It does not
increase the vehicle’s limits and
should not encourage you to
drive more quickly.
Therefore, it can under no circum -
stances replace the vigilance or re-
sponsibility of the driver when ma -
noeuvring the vehicle (the driver
must always be ready for sudden in-
cidents which may occur when driv-
ing).
This system supplements the ABS
and helps reduce vehicle stopping dis-
tances.
Operating principle
The system is for detecting an emer -
gency braking situation. In this case,
the braking assistance immediately de-
velops maximum power and may trig -
ger ABS regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as
the brake pedal is applied.
Hazard warning lights
switching on
Depending on the vehicle, these may
light up in the event of sudden decel -
eration.

formation of an axle).
To avoid any risk of accident, have
your vehicle checked by an ap -
proved Dealer.
