cornering lights
Depending on the vehicle, if the dipped
beam headlights are on when corner -
ing, and under certain driving condi -
tions (speed, steering wheel angle,
etc.), additional lights are switched on
to light the inside of the bend.
switching off the lights
There are two possibilities:
– manually, move ring 3 to the OFF po-
sition;
– automatically, the lights are switched
off when the engine is switched off
or when the driver’s door is opened.
In this case, the next time the engine
is started the lights will be switched
back on according to the position of
the ring 3.
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, for
opening a gate, garage, etc.) enables
you to switch the dipped headlights on
momentarily.
With the engine and lights off and
ring 3 in the Off position , pull stalk 1
towards you: the dipped beam head -
lights light up for approximately thirty
seconds.
This action may be carried out no more
than ten times for a maximum lighting
period of ten minutes.
To switch off the lights before they go
out automatically, turn the ring on the
stalk 1 , then return it to the OFF posi -
tion.

Electronic stability control
ESC with understeer control
and traction control ASR
Electronic stability control ESC
This system helps you to keep control
of the vehicle in critical driving condi -
tions (avoiding an obstacle, loss of grip
on a bend, etc.).
Operating principle
A sensor in the steering wheel detects
the direction selected by the driver.
Other sensors throughout the vehicle
measure the actual direction.
The system compares the direction se-
lected by the driver and the actual di -
rection of the vehicle and corrects this
as necessary by applying the brakes
selectively and/or acting on the engine
power. Traction control
ASR
This system helps to limit wheelspin of
the drive wheels and to control the ve-
hicle when pulling away accelerating or
decelerating.
Operating principle
Using the wheel sensors, the system
measures and compares the speed of
the drive wheels at all times and slows
down their over-rotation. If a wheel is
starting to slip, the system brakes au -
tomatically until the drive supplied be -
comes compatible with the level of grip
under the wheel again.
The system also adjusts the engine
speed to the grip available under the
wheels, independently of the pressure
exerted on the accelerator pedal.
lit indicates that the ESC system
(with the ASR) is active. Operating faults
When the system detects an operat
-
ing fault the message “Check ESC” and
warning light

on the instrument panel. In this case,
the ESC and ASR are deactivated.

studded tyres
This type of equipment may only be
used for a limited period and as laid
down by local legislation. It is neces -
sary to observe the speed specified by
current legislation.
These tyres must, at a minimum, be
fitted to the two front wheels.use in winter
chains
For safety reasons, fitting snow
chains to the rear axle is strictly for-
bidden.
chains cannot be fitted to tyres which
are larger than those originally fitted to
the vehicle.
snow or w inter tyres
We would recommend that these be
fitted to all four wheels to ensure that
your vehicle retains maximum adhe -
sion.
w arning: These tyres sometimes have
a specific direction of rotation and a
maximum speed index which may be
lower than the maximum speed of your
vehicle.
tyres (3/3)
Chains may only be fitted
to tyres of the same size
as those originally fitted to
your vehicle.
In all cases, we would recommend
that you contact an approved dealer
who will be able to advise you on
the choice of equipment which is
most suitable for your vehicle.
Fitting new tyres
Always ensure tyres with identi -
cal specifications are fitted to all four
wheels (brand, size, structure, wear
etc.). Fitting tyres of different sizes to
the front and rear wheels and/or left
and right wheels may have serious
consequences for the tyres, gearbox,
transfer gearbox and the rear differen-
tial pinions.
For safety reasons, this op-
eration must be carried out
by a specialist.
Fitting different tyres may
change your vehicle as follows:
– it may mean that your vehicle no
longer conforms to current regu-
lations;
– it may change the way it handles
when cornering;
– it may cause the steering to be
heavy;
– It may affect the use of snow
chains.
When changing a tyre, make sure all four tyres are changed at the same
time in order to preserve the transmission system.

tOwIng : breakdown (4/4)
Only use the front towing point 1 and
the rear towing point 4 (never use the
driveshafts). These towing points may
only be used for towing: never use
them for lifting the vehicle directly or in-
directly.

stopped, steering and brak-
ing assistance are not op -
erational.
– RENAULT recommends
the use of a rigid towing bar.
If a rope or cable is used
(where the law allows this),
the vehicle being towed must be
able to brake.
– A vehicle must not be towed if it is
not fit to be driven.
– Do not accelerate or brake 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).
