These systems operate:
– with the engine running;
– with the ignition off until one of the front doors is opened (limited to ap-
proximately 12 minutes).
– before starting, with the front doors closed, after pressing the start
button.
Press the window switch down or pull it
up to lower or raise the window to the
desired height: the rear windows do not
open fully.
Safety of rear occupants
The driver can disable operation of the rear electric windows and doors \
by pressing switch 4. A confirmation message is displayed on the instru-
ment panel.
Driver’s responsibility
Never leave your vehicle with the RENAULT card inside and never leave a child
(or a pet) unsupervised, even for a short while. They may pose a risk to them-
selves or to others by starting the engine, activating equipment such as\
the elec-
tric windows or by locking the doors. If a body part gets trapped, rever\
se the direc-
tion of travel of the window as soon as possible by pressing the relevan\
t switch.
Risk of serious injury.
Avoid resting any objects against
a half-open window: there is a risk
that the electric window could be
damaged.
From the driver’s seat, use switch:
1 for the driver’s side;
2 for the front passenger side;
3 and 5 for the rear passenger win-
dows.
From the passenger seats, use
switch 6.
Note: if the window detects resistance
when closing (e.g.: fingers, branch of
a tree, etc.) it stops and then lowers
again by a few centimetres.

REAR SEATS (3/5)
To automatically fold down
the seats (flat position)
The rear seats are electrically unlocked
to fold down in order to create a flat
floor.
There are two ways to manoeuvre the
seats:

Conditions of use
With the vehicle at a standstill and the
rear seat belts unlocked:
– from control 6, with the boot lid open;
– from the multifunction screen, with the engine running.
Note:
All unlocking actions for folding down
the seats require that the trays on the
back of the front seats have already
been folded away.

3.38
Always place the objects to be trans-
ported so that their largest side rests
against the back of the rear seat for
normal loads (e.g.: A), or against the
back of the front seats B when the rear
seatbacks are folded down.
If you have to place objects on the
folded seat back, it is vital that you
remove the headrests before folding
the seat back so that it can be folded as
flat as possible against the seat.
TRANSPORTING OBJECTS IN THE BOOT
A
Always position the heavi-
est items directly on the
floor. Use the lashing points
on the floor of the luggage
compartment, if these are fitted to
the vehicle. The luggage should be
loaded in such a way that no items
will be thrown forward and strike the
occupants if the driver has to brake
suddenly. Fasten the rear seat belts,
even if the seats are not occupied.
B
Anchorage points
Hooks 1 located on each corner of the
boot allow the load to be secured.
Always position objects being trans-
ported so that the heaviest items
are resting against the back of the
rear seat.
