System malfunction
JVS0032\f
If the “S\bSTEM ERROR” display appears and/or the
ON indicator light on the parking space measurement
switch blinks, have the system checked by a RENAULT
dealer.\bour vehicle was designed to be used to carry
passengers and luggage. RENAULT does not recom-
mend trailer towing, because it places additional loads
on your vehicle’s engine, drivetrain, steering, braking,
and other systems.
CAUTION:
Vehicle damage resulting from towing a trailer is
not covered by the warranty.
WARNING:
.
If the engine is not running or is turned off
while driving, the power assist for the
steering will not work. The steering will be
harder to operate.
. When the electric power steering warning
light illuminates with the engine running, the
power assist for the steering will cease
operation. You will still have control of the
vehicle but the steering will be harder to
operate.
The electric power steering system is designed to
provide power assist while driving to operate the
steering wheel with light force.
When the steering wheel is operated repeatedly or
continuously while parking or driving at a very low
speed, the power assist for the steering wheel will be
reduced. This is to prevent overheating of the electric
power steering system and protect it from getting
damaged. While the power assist is reduced, steering
wheel operation will become heavy. When the
temperature of the electric power steering system
goes down, the power assist level will return to normal.
Avoid repeating such steering wheel operations that
could cause the electric power steering system to
overheat.
\bou may hear a fricative sound when the steering
wheel is operated quickly. However, this is not a
malfunction.
If the electric power steering warning light
illuminates while the engine is running, it may indicate
the electric power steering system is not functioning
properly and may need servicing. Have the electric
power steering system checked by a RENAULT dealer.
(See “Electric power steering warning light” (P.2-14) .)
