Stopping the engine
STOPPING THE ENGINE
Special note
If the card is no longer in the reader
when you try to switch the engine
off, the message “ No keycard Press
and hold ” appears on the instrument
panel A : press button 1 for over two
seconds.
Hands-free RENAULT card:
With the card in the vehicle, press
button 1: the engine will stop. The steer-
ing column is locked when the driver’s
door is opened or the vehicle is locked.
If the card is no longer in the passenger
compartment when you try to switch the
engine off, the message “ No keycard
Press and hold ” appears on the instru-
ment panel: press button 1 for over two
seconds.
With the engine switched off, any ac -
cessories being used (radio, etc.) will
continue to function for approximately
10 minutes.
When the driver’s door is opened, the
accessories stop working.
Conditions for stopping the
engine
The vehicle must be stationary, with the
lever positioned in N or P for vehicles
with an automatic transmission.
Remote control RENAULT
card
With the card in reader 2, press
button 1: the engine will stop. Removing
the card from the reader locks the steer-
ing column.
Never leave your vehicle
with the RENAULT card
inside and never leave a
child (or a pet) unsuper -
vised, even for a short while.
There is a risk that they could start
the engine or operate electrical
equipment (electric windows etc.)
and trap part of their body (neck,
arms, hands, etc.).
Risk of serious injury.
Never switch off the ignition before
the vehicle has come to a complete
stop. Switching off the engine dis -
ables the assistance equipment:
brakes, steering, etc., and passive
safety equipment such as airbags
and pretensioners.
When leaving your vehi -
cle, in particular with the
RENAULT card, check that
the engine has completely
stopped.

ADvICE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (3/3)
Advice on use
– Electricity is fuel; switch off all the
electrical components which are
not really needed. However (safety
first), keep your lights on when the
visibility is bad (“see and be seen”).
– Use the air vents. Driving with the
windows open at 60 mph (100 km/h)
will increase fuel consumption by
4%.
– Avoid using the car for door-to-door
calls (short journeys with long waits
in between) because the engine
never reaches its normal operating
temperature.
Tyres
– An underinflated tyre increases fuel
consumption.
– The use of non-recommended tyres
can increase fuel consumption.
–
In vehicles fitted with air condi -
tioning, it is normal to observe an
increase in fuel consumption (es -
pecially in urban conditions) when
it is used. For vehicles fitted with
manual air conditioning, switch off
the system when it is not required.
Advice for reducing consumption
and therefore helping to preserve
the environment:
If the vehicle has been parked in the
sun, open the doors for a few mo -
ments to let the hot air escape before
starting the engine.
– Never fill the fuel tank right to the
brim to avoid overflow.
– Do not leave an empty roof rack
fitted to the vehicle.
– It is better to fit a trailer for bulky ob-
jects.
– When towing a caravan, fit a wind
deflector and adjust it carefully.

Turn the control A according to the

Air recirculation mode
Press the button B : the indicator light
on the button comes on.
In these conditions air is taken from the
passenger compartment and is recircu-
lated, with no air being taken from out-
side the vehicle.
Recirculation allows:
– isolating the vehicle from the exter -
nal atmosphere (driving in polluted
areas, etc.);
– the passenger compartment to be
brought to the desired temperature
more quickly.ABcDE
F
Information and advice for use:
Refer to information on “Air condi -
tioning: information and advice on
use”.
Prolonged use of air recirculation
can lead to condensation form -
ing on the side windows and wind -
screen, and discomfort due to the
use of non-renewed air in the pas -
senger compartment.
We therefore advise you to return to
normal mode (external air) as soon
as the air recirculation function is
no longer required, by pressing the
button B again.
