Réservoir carburant (X45 - H45 - Renault) ENG_NU_1057-1_H45_Ph3_Renault_1
Vehicles running on ethanol-based
fuel
It is essential to use unleaded petrol or
fuel containing a maximum of 85% eth-
anol (E85).
In very cold conditions, it may be very
difficult or even impossible to start the
engine. To avoid this problem, use un-
leaded petrol or, on equipped vehicles,
use the heater integrated in the engine:
connect the special end of the exten-
sion piece supplied into the socket in-
tegrated into the radiator grille and the
other end into a 220V socket for at least
6 hours before starting.
Note: you may notice an increase in
fuel consumption with this type of fuel.
Do not mix even small
amounts of petrol (un-
leaded or E85) with diesel.
Do not use ethanol-based
fuel if your vehicle is not compatible
with this fuel.
FUEL TANK (2/3)
Filling with fuel
Insert the nozzle fully before beginning
to fill the tank (risk of splashback).
Keep the nozzle in this position
throughout the entire filling operation.
When the pump cuts out automatically
at the end of the filling procedure, a
maximum of two further filling attempts
may be made, as there must be suffi-
cient space in the fuel tank to allow for
expansion.
Make sure that no water enters the fuel
tank during filling. The cap and its sur-
round must remain clean.
Petrol versions
Using leaded petrol will damage the
antipollution system and may lead to a
loss of warranty.
To ensure that the fuel tank is not filled
with leaded petrol, the fuel tank filler
neck contains a restrictor fitted with a
foolproof system which only allows
the nozzle for unleaded petrol to be
used (at the pump).Persistent smell of
fuel
If you notice a persistent
smell of fuel you should:
– stop the vehicle if traffic condi-
tions allow and switch off the igni-
tion;
– switch on the hazard warning
lights and ask your passengers
to leave the vehicle and to keep
away from traffic;
– contact an authorised dealer.

Particularit s des versions diesel avec filtre particules (X45 - H45 - Renault) ENG_NU_1057-1_H45_Ph3_Renault_2
SPECIAL FEATURES OF DIESEL VERSIONS FITTED WITH A PARTICLE FILTER
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
contact with the hot exhaust system.
Diesel engine speed
Diesel engines are fitted with injection
equipment which prevents the engine
speed being exceeded irrespective of
the gear selected.
If the message “Check exhaust emis-
sion” is displayed on the instrument
panel accompanied by the
Ä and
© warning lights. Consult an au-
thorised dealer straight away.
When driving, depending on the fuel
grade used, it is possible that white
smoke may be emitted.
This is due to the exhaust particle filter
being cleaned automatically, and does
not affect the way the vehicle runs.
Precautions to be taken in
winter
To avoid faults in icy weather:
– ensure that the battery is always fully
charged,
– always keep the diesel tank rela-
tively full to prevent water vapour
condensing in it and accumulating at
the bottom of the tank. Depending on the vehicle, the
Ü
warning light lights up on the instrument
panel to show that there is a risk of the
particle filter becoming clogged.
To clean the particle filter, for 60 miles
(100 km) after the warning light comes
on drive at an average speed of at least
42 mph (70 kph), where traffic condi-
tions and the speed limit will allow, until
the warning light goes out.
You may need to restart the operation if
the vehicle has to stop before the warn-
ing light goes out.
As an example, in this case, the clean-
ing operation lasts for up to 20 minutes.

Conseils : antipollution, conomies de carburant, conduite (X45 - H45 - Renault) ENG_NU_1057-1_H45_Ph3_Renault_2
ADVICE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (2/3)
– Sporty driving uses a lot of fuel: drive
with a light right foot.
– Brake as little as possible. If you an-
ticipate an obstacle or bend in ad-
vance, you may then simply release
the accelerator pedal.
– Do not try to maintain the same
speed up a hill, accelerate no more
than you would on the level. Keep
your foot in the same position on the
accelerator pedal.
– Double declutching and accelerating
before switching off are unnecessary
in modern vehicles.
– Bad weather, flooded roads:
Do not drive through floods
if the water is above the
lower edge of the wheel
rims.Driving– Drive carefully for the first few miles
until the engine reaches its normal
operating temperature, rather than
let it warm up while the vehicle is sta-
tionary.
– Speed is expensive.
– Do not overrev the engine in the in-
termediate gears.
Always use the highest gear possi-
ble without labouring the engine.
On versions with an automatic gear-
box, it is preferable to keep the gear
lever in position D.
– Avoid sudden acceleration.
Exhaust gas monitoring
system
The exhaust gas monitoring system will
detect any operating faults in the vehi-
cle’s antipollution system.
If this system malfunctions, toxic sub-
stances may be released into the at-
mosphere or damage may occur.
ÄThis warning light on the in-
strument panel will indicate if
there are any faults in the system:
This lights up when the ignition is
switched on and goes out when the
engine is started.
– If it lights up continuously, consult an
approved Dealer as soon as possi-
ble;
– if it flashes, reduce the engine speed
until the light stops flashing. Contact
your approved dealer as soon as
possible.
Obstructions to the driver
On the driver’s side, only
use mats suitable for the
vehicle, attached with the
pre-fitted components, and check
the fitting regularly. Do not lay one
mat on top of another.
There is a risk of wedging the
pedals

Syst me de surveillance de pression des pneumatiques (X45 - H45 - Renault) ENG_NU_1057-1_H45_Ph3_Renault_2
TYRE PRESSURE MONITOR (2/3)
Changing a wheel
The tyre pressure monitor takes ap-
proximately 8 minutes to identify the
tyres which have been replaced. The
system will not operate during this time.
Fitting tyres(replacing tyres or fitting winter
tyres)
Since replacing tyres requires special
precautions, we advise you to contact
your approved dealer.
While the tyre pressure
monitor is identifying the
tyres which have been re-
placed, the information sent
by the system may be inaccurate
and this could have serious conse-
quences.
Emergency spare wheel
The emergency spare wheel has no
sensor, and cannot be recognised by
the system.
When it is fitted in the place of another
wheel, the system then detects an op-
erating fault.
Replacing wheels/tyres
This system requires specific equip-
ment (wheels, hubcaps, etc.).
Contact an approved dealer to fit new
tyres and to find out about available ac-
cessories compatible with the system
and available from your approved
dealer: the use of any other accessory
could affect the correct operation of the
system or damage a sensor.
Display
If warning lights 1 and 2 light up on the
instrument panel, this indicates there
is a fault relating to the tyre pressure
(flat tyre, puncture, system malfunction,
etc.).
An explanation of the indicator lights,
signals and messages is given on the
following page.

DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES (1/5)
Depending on the vehicle, this is com-
posed of:
– the anti-lock braking system ABS;
– the electronic stability control
ESC with traction control ASR;
– the emergency brake assist;
– the hill descent control;
– the hill start assistance.Operating faults:
– If the message “Check ABS” is dis-
played and the
x and ©
warning lights on the instrument
panel come on when driving, brak-
ing safety is still guaranteed, but
without ABS;
– if the message “Brake system fault”
is displayed and the
x, D
and
® warning lights on the in-
strument panel come on when driv-
ing, there is a fault in the braking
system.
Consult an approved Dealer.
These functions are an ad-
ditional aid in the event of
critical driving conditions,
enabling the vehicle behav-
iour to be adapted to suit the driving
conditions.
However, the functions do not take
the place of the driver. They do
not increase the vehicle’s limits
and should not encourage you
to drive more quickly. Therefore,
they can under no circumstances
replace the vigilance or responsibil-
ity of the driver when manoeuvring
the vehicle (the driver must always
be ready for sudden incidents which
may occur when driving).
ABS (anti-lock braking
system)
Under heavy braking, the ABS prevents
the wheels from locking, allowing the
stopping distance to be managed and
keeping control of the vehicle.
Under these circumstances, the vehi-
cle can be steered to avoid an obstacle
whilst braking. In addition, this system
can increase stopping distances, par-
ticularly on roads with low surface grip
(wet ground etc.).
You will feel a pulsation through the
brake pedal each time the system is
activated. The ABS does not in any way
improve the vehicle's physical perform-
ance relating to the road surface and
roadholding. It is still essential to follow
the rules of good driving practice (such
as driving at a safe distance from the
vehicle in front etc.).
In an emergency, apply firm and
continuous pressure to the brake
pedal. There is no need to pump
it repeatedly. The ABS will modu-
late the force applied in the braking
system.
Your braking systems
are partially operational.
However, it is dangerous
to brake suddenly and
it is essential to stop immediately,
as soon as traffic conditions allow.
Contact an approved dealer.

DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES (3/5)
If you deactivate this function, the
traction control (ASR) system will
also be deactivated.
As the ESC and ASR provide enhanced
safety, it is not advisable to drive with
the function switched off. Correct
this as soon as possible by pressing
switch 1 again.
Note: the system is automatically reac-
tivated each time the engine is switched
off.
1
Disabling the ESC function
(including traction control (ASR)
system)
In some situations (driving on very wet
ground: snow, mud, etc. or driving with
snow chains fitted), the system may
reduce the engine output to limit wheel-
spin. If this is not required, it is possible
to deactivate the function by pressing
switch 1.
Depending on the vehicle warning
light
 or the message “ESC off”
is displayed on the instrument panel to
inform you.
Emergency brake assist
This system supplements the ABS
and helps reduce vehicle stopping dis-
tances.
Operating principle
Depending on the speed at which the
brake pedal is depressed, the system
will detect emergency braking. In this
case, the braking assistance immedi-
ately develops maximum power and
may trigger ABS regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as
the brake pedal is applied.
Hazard warning lights switching on
Depending on the vehicle, these may
light up in the event of sudden decel-
eration.
