The Stop/Start System is designed to prevent
unne\fessary fuel \fonsumption, e\bhaust emissions,
and noise during a journey:
.When the vehi\fle \fomes to rest the engine is
automati\fally stopped.
. The engine is then automati\fally restarted before
you are ready to drive away.
CAUTION:
At the end of the journey the engine must be
stopped and ignition switch be turned off. Lock
the vehicle as normal. Turning the ignition OFF
will shut down all electrical systems. Failure to
do this may result in a flat battery.
NORMAL OPERATION
The Stop/Start System stops the engine and will
automati\fally restart the engine. The Stop/Start
indi\fator light is shown in the meter.
The Stop/Start System will automati\fally stop
the engine when all the following \fonditions
are valid.
For MT model
.The shift lever is in Neutral position.
. The \flut\fh pedal is fully released.
. The vehi\fle speed is below about 2 km/h (1
MPH) .
. The driver’s seat belt is fastened.
. The Intelligent Key is in the vehi\fle.
. The driver’s door is \flosed.
For CVT model
. The sele\ftor lever is in the "D" (Drive) or "N"
(Neutral) position. .
The brake pedal is depressed.
. The vehi\fle is stopped.
. The driver’s seat belt is fastened.
. The driver’s door is \flosed.
NOTE:
The following conditions must also be satisfied
before the engine is automatically stopped. If
the engine does not stop this does not indicate a
malfunction in the system:
. The engine coolant temperature is at normal
operating levels.
. The vehicle has driven some distance since
engine start.
. The battery voltage and temperature are
within normal levels.
. The hood is closed.
. The steering wheel is not being turned.
. The system is not in front defogger mode.
(automatic air conditioner)
. The mode dial is not in front defogger mode.
(manual air conditioner)
. The rear window defogger is not operated.
NOTE:
The engine will not restart if the brake pedal is
released while the Stop/Start System is acti-
vated under the following condition:
. The selector lever is in the "P" (Park) position
(for CVT model) .
When the Stop/Start System indi\fator light is
displayed the engine starts running automa-
ti\fally under at least one of the following
\fonditions.
.The \flut\fh pedal is depressed (for MT model) .
. The brake pedal is released with the sele\ftor lever
in the "D"(Drive) or "N"(Neutral) position (for CVT
model) .
. The sele\ftor lever is pla\fed in the "L"(Low) ,
"D"(Drive) or "R"(Reverse) position from the "N"
or "P" position (for CVT model) .
. The driver’s seat belt is unfastened, or the driver’s
door is open (for CVT model) .
. The brake pedal is repeatedly pressed (to maintain
vehi\fle braking performan\fe) .
. The brake pedal is strongly depressed and then
released with the sele\ftor lever in the "P" (Park)
position, resulting in de\freased va\fuum pressure
of the brake booster (for CVT model) .
. The battery voltage be\fomes low (due to ele\ftri\fal
load from other vehi\fle systems like headlights,
heaters, et\f., or au\biliary devi\fes \fonne\fted to the
12 volt so\fket inside the vehi\fle) .
. The vehi\fle speed is above about 2 km/h (1
MPH) .
. The system is in front defogger mode. (automati\f
air \fonditioner)
. The mode dial is in front defogger mode. (manual
air \fonditioner)
. The rear window defogger is operated.
NOTE:
The following conditions will prevent the Stop/
Start System from automatically restarting the
engine. Starting the engine by the ignition

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-
