åAir bag warning light
This lights up when the ignition 
is switched on and goes out after a few 
seconds.
If it does not come on when the igni-
tion is switched on, or comes on when 
the engine is running, there is a fault in 
the system.
Contact your approved Dealer as soon 
as possible.
MLow fuel level warning light
This lights up when the ignition 
is switched on and goes out after a few 
seconds.
If it lights up when driving, fill up with 
fuel as soon as possible. There is only 
approximately 30 miles (50 km) worth 
of fuel left.
A
If no lights or sounds are ap-
parent, this indicates a fault 
in the instrument panel. This 
indicates that it is essential 
to stop immediately (as soon as traf-
fic conditions allow). Ensure that the 
vehicle is correctly immobilised and 
contact an approved Dealer.
Instrument panel  A: lights up when 
the ignition is switched on. The bright-
ness can be adjusted by turning control 
knob 1.
In some cases, the appearance of a 
warning light is accompanied by a mes-
sage.
The © warning light means 
you should drive very carefully to 
an approved dealer as soon as pos-
sible. If you fail to follow this recom-
mendation, you risk damaging your 
vehicle.
Warning light ® re-
quires you to stop immedi-
ately, for your own safety, 
as soon as traffic conditions allow. 
Switch off the engine and do not re-
start it. Contact an approved Dealer.

When you leave your vehi-
cle, especially if you have 
your RENAULT card with 
you, check that the engine 
is completely switched off.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.
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” will appear on the in-
strument panel: press the button  1 for 
longer than 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 pas-
senger compartment when you try to 
switch the engine off, the message “NO 
KEYCARD PRESS AND HOLD” ap-
pears on the instrument panel: press 
the button 1  for longer than two sec-
onds.
Conditions for stopping the 
engine
The vehicle must stationary, with the 
lever positioned in  N or P  for vehicles 
with an automatic transmission.
Special note
Depending on the vehicle, accessories 
(e.g. radio) stop working either when 
the engine is switched off or when the 
driver’s door is opened or when the 
doors are locked.
STARTING/STOPPING THE ENGINE (3/3)
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 stopped completely. 
Once the engine has stopped, the 
brake servo, power-assisted steer-
ing, etc. and the passive safety de-
vices such as air bags and preten-
sioners will no longer operate.

SPECIAL FEATURES OF PETROL VERSIONS
The following operating conditions:
–  driving for long periods when the low fuel level warning light is lit;
–  using leaded petrol;
–  using fuel or lubrication additives  which are not approved.
Or operating faults such as:
–  faulty ignition system, running out of  fuel or disconnected spark plugs re-
sulting in the engine misfiring or cut-
ting out when driving;
–  loss of power,
as they may cause the catalytic con-
verter to overheat and thus reduce its 
efficiency,  or damage it irreparably 
and cause heat damage to the vehi-
cle. If you notice any of the above operating 
faults, have the necessary repairs car-
ried out as soon as possible by an ap-
proved Dealer.
These faults may be avoided by regu-
larly taking your vehicle to an approved 
Dealer at the intervals specified in the 
Maintenance document.
Starting problems
To avoid damaging the catalytic con-
verter, 
do not keep  trying to start the 
engine (using the start button, or by 
pushing or towing the vehicle)  without 
having identified and corrected the 
starting fault.
If the fault cannot be identified, do not 
keep trying to start the engine, but con-
tact an approved Dealer.
Do not park the vehicle or 
run the engine in locations 
where combustible sub-
stances or materials such as 
grass or leaves can come into con-
tact with the hot exhaust system.

DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (3/5)

ECO mode
ECO mode is a function which opti-
mises fuel consumption. It acts on all 
elements which consume fuel (engine 
power, heating and/or air conditioning, 
etc).Disabling the  function
Press switch 4.
The 5  
 light goes out on the instru-
ment panel to confirm deactivation.
Activating the function
Press switch 4.
The 
5  warning light comes on on 
the instrument panel to confirm activa-
tion.
While driving, it is possible to leave the 
ECO mode temporarily in order to im-
prove engine performance.
Depress the accelerator pedal firmly 
and fully.
ECO mode is reactivated when you 
take pressure off the accelerator pedal.   

2.17
DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (5/5)
Advice on use
–  Favour ECO mode.
–  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%.
–  Never fill the fuel tank right to the  brim to avoid overflow.
– In vehicles fitted with air condi-
tioning,  it is normal to observe an 
increase in fuel consumption (espe-
cially 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.
– 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.
–  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.
