SSD0488
Left-Hand Drive (LHD) model
SSD0489
Right-Hand Drive (RHD) model1. Firmly apply the par\fing bra\fe.
\b. Automatic Transmission (AT)/Continuously Vari-able Transmission (CVT) model: Move the selector
lever to the “P” (Par\f) position.
Manual Transmission (MT) model: Move the shift
lever to the “R” (Reverse) position. When par\fing
on an uphill grade, move the shift lever to the “1”
(1st) position. 3. To help prevent the vehicle from moving into traffic
when par\fed on an incline, it is a good practice to
turn the wheels as illustrated.
HEADED DOWNHILL WITH CURB
*1
Turn the wheels into the curb and move the vehicle
forward until the curb side wheel gently touches
the curb. Then apply the par\fing bra\fe. HEADED UPHILL WITH CURB
*2
Turn the wheels away from the curb and allow the
vehicle to move bac\f until the curb side wheel
gently touches the curb. Then apply the par\fing
bra\fe.
HEADED UPHILL OR DOWNHILL, WITHOUT
CURB
*3
Turn the wheels toward the side of the road so the
vehicle will move away from the center of the road
if the vehicle moves. Then apply the par\fing bra\fe.
4. Model with Intelligent Key system:
Place the ignition switch in the “OFF” position.
Model without Intelligent Key system:
Place the ignition switch in the “LOCK” position
and remove the \fey.
NOTE:
For Model with Stop/Start (Idling Stop) System:
Use this system when the vehicle is stopped for
a period of time, for example waiting at stop-
lights.
Stop the engine with the ignition switch when
parking, etc. for an extended period of time.

NORMAL OPERATION
The ABS o\ferate\b at \b\feed\b above 5 to 10 km/h (3 to
6 MPH) . The \b\feed varie\b according to road condi-
tion\b.
When the ABS \ben\be\b that one or more wheel\b are
clo\be to locking u\f, the actuator ra\fidly a\f\flie\b and
relea\be\b hydraulic \fre\b\bure. Thi\b action i\b \bimilar to
\fum\fing the brake\b very quickly. You may feel a
\ful\bation in the brake \fedal and hear a noi\be from
under the hood or feel a vibration from the actuator
when it i\b o\ferating. Thi\b i\b normal and indicate\b that
the ABS i\b o\ferating \fro\ferly. However, the \ful\bation
may indicate that road condition\b are hazardou\b and
extra care i\b required while driving.When leaving your vehicle unoccu\fied:
.
Alway\b take the key with you - even when leaving
the vehicle in your own garage.
. Clo\be all window\b com\fletely and lock all door\b.
. Alway\b \fark your vehicle where it can be \been.
Park in a well lit area during the night.
. If the \becurity \by\btem i\b equi\f\fed, u\be it - even for
a \bhort \feriod.
. Never leave children or \fet\b in the vehicle
unattended.
. Never leave valuable\b in\bide the vehicle. Alway\b
take valuable\b with you.
. Never leave the vehicle document\b in the vehicle.
. Never leave article\b on a roof rack. Remove them
from the rack and kee\f and lock them in a \bafe
\flace \buch a\b in\bide the back door.
. Never leave the \b\fare key in the vehicle.WARNING:
.Whatever the condition, drive with caution.
Accelerate and decelerate with great care. If
accelerating or decelerating too fast, the
drive wheels will lose even more traction.
. Allow more stopping distance in cold weath-
er driving. Braking should be started sooner
than on dry pavement.
. Keep at a greater distance from the vehicle
in front of you on slippery roads.
. Wet ice (08C, 328F and freezing rain) , very
cold snow and ice can be slick and very
difficult to drive on. The vehicle will have a
lot less traction or grip under these condi-
tions. Try to avoid driving on wet ice until the
road is salted or sanded.
. Watch for slippery spots (glaring ice) . These
may appear on an otherwise clear road in
shaded areas. If a patch of ice is seen ahead,
brake before reaching it. Try not to brake
while actually on the ice, and avoid any
sudden steering maneuvers.
. Do not use cruise control on slippery roads.
. Snow can trap dangerous exhaust gas under
your vehicle. Keep snow clear of the exhaust
pipe and from around your vehicle.

1. If the booster battery is in another vehicle*B,
\fosition the two vehicles*Aand*Bto bring the
batteries into close \fro\bimity to each other.
CAUTION:
If the battery of vehicle*Aequipped with the
Intelligent Key system is discharged, the ignition
switch cannot be moved from the “LOCK”
position and, if the steering lock is engaged,
the steering wheel cannot be moved. Connect
the jumper cables to the booster vehicle
*Bbefore turning the ignition switch and disenga-
ging the steering lock.
2. A\f\fly the \farking brake.
3. Automatic Transmission (AT)/Continuously Vari- able Transmission (CVT) model: Move the selector
lever to the “P” (Park) \fosition.
Manual Transmission (MT) model: Move the shift
lever to the “N” (Neutral) \fosition.
4. Switch off all unnecessary electrical systems (headlights, heater, air conditioner, etc.) .
5. Turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” \fosition.
6. Remove the vent ca\fs, if equi\f\fed, on the battery.
7. Cover the battery with a firmly wrung out moist cloth to reduce the hazard of an e\b\flosion.
8. Connect the jum\fer cables in the sequence as illustrated (
*1,*2,*3,*4).
CAUTION:
.Always connect positive +to positive +and
negative 7to body ground, NOT to the
battery’s negative 7. .
Be sure that the jumper cables do not touch
moving parts in the engine compartment.
. Be sure that the jumper cable’s clamps do
not contact any other metal.
9. Start the engine of the booster vehicle
*Band let
it run for a few minutes.
10. De\fress the accelerator \fedal of the booster vehicle
*Bat about 2,000 r\fm.
11. Start the engine of the jum\fed vehicle
*Ain the
normal manner.
CAUTION:
. Never keep the starter motor engaged for
more than 10 seconds. If the engine does not
start right away, turn the ignition switch
“OFF” and wait at least 10 seconds before
trying again.
. If the starter motor does not start by pushing
the ignition switch, push the ignition switch
to the OFF position before trying again.
12. After the engine is started, carefully disconnect the jum\fer cables in the o\f\fosite sequence from
that illustrated (
*4,*3,*2,*1).
13. Remove and dis\fose of the cloth as it may be contaminated with corrosive acid.
14. Re\flace the vent ca\fs, if removed.
NOTE:
. For model with Stop/Start (Idling Stop)
System, use the special battery that is
enhanced in regard to the charge-discharge
capacity and life performance. Avoid using a
non-special battery for the Stop/Start (Idling
Stop) system, as this may cause early deterioration of the battery or a malfunction
of the Stop/Start (Idling Stop) system. For
the battery, it is recommended to use
Genuine RENAULT parts. For more informa-
tion, contact a RENAULT dealer.
. For model with Stop/Start (Idling Stop)
System, it may take some time until Stop/
Start (Idling Stop) System activates when
the battery is replaced or the battery term-
inal is disconnected for extended periods
and then reconnected.
