This Driver’s Handbook  contains the information necessary:
–  for you to familiarise yourself with your vehicle, to use it to its best advantage and to benefit fully from the all the functions and 
the technical developments it incorporates.
–  to ensure that it always gives the best performance by following the simple, but comprehensive advice concerning regular main-
tenance.
–  to enable you to deal quickly with minor faults not requiring specialist attention.
It is well worth taking a few minutes to read this handbook to familiarise yourself with the information and guidelines it contains 
about  the  vehicle  and  its  functions  and  new  features.  If  certain  points  are  still  unclear,  our  Network  technicians  will  be  only  too 
pleased to provide you with any additional information.
The following symbol will help you when reading this handbook:
Welcome to your new vehicle
The descriptions of the models given in this handbook are based on the technical specifications at the time of writing.  This hand-
book covers all items of equipment (both standard and optional)  available for these models but whether or not these are 
fitted to the vehicle depends on the version, options selected and the c\
ountry where the vehicle is sold.
This handbook may also contain information about items of equipment to b\
e introduced later in the model year.
Throughout the manual, the “approved Dealer” is your RENAULT Dealer. To indicate a hazard, danger or safety recommendation.
Enjoy driving your new vehicle.

“HANds-fREE” RENAULT cARd: use (2/3)
Locking the vehicle
There  are  three  ways  to  lock  the  vehi-
cle:  remotely,  using  button  4 ,  or  using 
the RENAULT card.
Remote locking
With  the  RENAULT  card  on  you,  and 
doors  and  tailgate  closed,  move  away 
from  the  vehicle:  it  will  lock  automati -
cally  once  you  have  left  one  of  the 
zones 1.
Note: the distance at which the vehicle 
locks depends on the surroundings. The  hazard  warning  lights 
flash  twice 
and  a  beep  sounds  to  indicate  that  the 
doors have locked.
This beep can be changed or switched 
off. Consult an approved dealer.
If  a  door  or  the  tailgate  is  open  or  not 
properly shut, or a card is in the passen-
ger  compartment  (or  the  card  reader) 
the  vehicle  will  not  lock.  In  this  situa -
tion,  no beep sounds and the hazard 
warning lights do not flash.
24
Locking using button  4
With  the  doors  and  tailgate  closed, 
press  button  4   on  the  driver ’s  door 
handle.  The  vehicle  will  lock.  If  a  door 
or  the  tailgate  is  open  or  not  closed 
properly,  the  vehicle  will  quickly  lock/
unlock.
Note:   the  RENAULT  card  must  be 
within  one  of  the  vehicle's  access 
zones 1 to be able to use the button for 
locking.
special note
If  you  wish  to  check  that  the  doors  are 
locked after locking using button 4, you 
have  approximately  three  seconds  to 
try  the  door  handles  without  unlocking 
them.
After  this  time,  the  “hands-free”  mode 
is activated once again and any move-
ment of a handle will unlock the vehicle.

11
If the vehicle is fitted with remote window closing, locking the doors using button  4 
also causes all the windows to close (please see the information on “Electric win-
dows; Electric sunroof” in Section 3).

Advice: antipollution and fuel economy
aDVICe: antipollution, fuel economy and driving  (1/3)
Your  vehicle  complies  with  criteria  for 
recycling and recovering vehicles at the 
end of their service life which will come 
into force in 2015.
Some parts of your vehicle have there-
fore  been  designed  to  facilitate  future 
recycling.
These  parts  are  easy  to  remove  so 
that they can be recovered and reproc-
essed by recycling companies.
By  virtue  of  its  design,  moderate  fuel 
consumption  and  initial  settings,  your 
vehicle  also  conforms  to  current  anti-
pollution  regulations.  The  manufac -
turer  is  actively  striving  to  reduce  pol -
lutant  exhaust  gas  emissions  and  to 
save  energy.  But  the  fuel  consumption 
of your vehicle and the level of pollutant 
exhaust  gas  emissions  are  also  your 
responsibility.  Ensure  that  it  is  main -
tained and used correctly.aiding fuel economy
Depending  on  the  vehicle,  in  order  to 
optimise consumption, an indicator light 
on the instrument panel will inform you 
of the best moment to upshift or down -
shift gears:
\ shift up a gear;
[ shift down a gear.
Maintenance
It is important to remember that failure to 
respect  antipollution  regulations  could 
lead to legal action being taken against 
the vehicle owner. In addition, replacing 
engine, fuel supply system and exhaust 
components with parts other than those 
originally  recommended  by  the  manu -
facturer  may  alter  your  vehicle  so  that 
it  no  longer  complies  with  antipollution 
regulations. Have  your  vehicle  adjusted  and 
checked by an approved Dealer, in ac-
cordance  with  the  instructions  given  in 
your  maintenance  schedule:  they  will 
have  all  the  equipment  necessary  for 
ensuring that your vehicle is maintained 
to its original standard.
engine adjustments– 
ignition:   this  does  not  require  ad -
justment.
–  spark plugs: for optimum fuel econ-
omy,  efficiency  and  performance 
the  specifications  laid  down  by  our 
Design  Department  must  be  strictly 
applied.
If  the  spark  plugs  have  to  be 
changed,  use  the  make,  type  and 
gap  specified  for  your  vehicle’s 
engine.  Contact  an  approved  dealer 
for this.
–  idle:   this  does  not  require  adjust -
ment.
–  air  filter, diesel  filter: a clogged ele-
ment  reduces  performance.  It  must 
be replaced.

– 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.

Driving in automatic mode
Select  position D.  In  most  traffic  con -
ditions,  you  will  not  have  to  touch  the 
gear selector lever again: the gears will 
change  automatically  at  the  right  time 
and  at  the  most  suitable  engine  speed 
because  the  automatic  system  takes 
into  account  the  vehicle  load  and  road 
contour and adjusts itself to the particu-
lar driving style you have chosen.
economical driving
When  driving,  always  leave  the  lever 
in  position  D,  keeping  the  accelerator 
pedal lightly depressed to ensure auto-
matic  gear  changes  at  a  lower  engine 
speed.
accelerating and overtaking
Depress  the  accelerator  pedal  firmly 
and  fully  (so  that  it  goes  beyond  the 
kickdown point).
this will enable you to change down 
to  the  optimum  gear  within  the 
engine range.
