Transmission int grale : 4 roues motrices : 4WD (X45 - H45 - Renault) ENG_NU_1057-1_H45_Ph3_Renault_2
ALL-WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM: 4 wheel drive (4WD) (2/3)
Special note on all-wheel
drive system
– The vehicle may make more
noise when the “AUTO” or “4WD
Lock” modes are activated. This
is normal;
– if the system detects a difference
in the size of the front and rear
wheels (as is the case, for exam-
ple, when the wrong size tyres
are fitted, or if the tyres are un-
der-inflated or significantly worn
on one axle etc.) the message
“4WD not available” is displayed
on the instrument panel and the
indicator light
‘ flashes.
Select “2WD” mode and drive at
a moderate speed;
– always use four tyres with the
same level of wear;
– as soon as the vehicle speed ex-
ceeds 24 mph (40 km/h) in “4WD
Lock” mode, the system automat-
ically switches back to “AUTO”
mode. The indicator light goes
out;
– when the front and rear wheels
are turning at different speeds
(for example, when driving on
uneven road surfaces, sand or
mud, or when being towed, tyres
with different levels of wear), the
oil temperature may rise, given
the mechanical stresses. In this
case, the system automatically
switches back to “2WD” mode to
prevent overheating. The mes-
sage “4WD not available” is
displayed on the instrument
panel and the
‘ or ’
indicator light comes on. Park
the vehicle in a safe place and
wait until the message “4WD not
available” disappears.
If the warning appears again,
contact an approved Dealer.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operating
fault the message “Check 4WD” and
warning light
© appear on the in-
strument panel.
Contact your approved Dealer as soon
as possible.

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.

Driving
When a limited speed has been stored
and this speed is not reached, driving is
similar to driving a vehicle without the
speed limiter function.
Once you have reached the stored
speed, no effort on the accelera-
tor pedal will allow you to exceed
the programmed speed except in an
emergency (refer to information on
“Exceeding the limit speed”).
Exceeding the limit speed
It is possible to exceed the limit speed
at any moment. To do this: press the
accelerator pedal firmly and fully
(beyond the kickdown point).
Whilst the speed is being exceeded,
the cruising speed displayed on the in-
strument panel flashes.
Then, release the accelerator pedal:
the speed limiter function will return as
soon as you reach a speed lower than
the stored speed.
Limited speed cannot be maintained
When driving down a steep gradient,
the system is unable to maintain the
limit speed: the stored speed will flash
on the instrument panel information dis-
play to inform you of this situation.
The speed limiter function is
in no way linked to the brak-
ing system.
Varying the limit speedTo vary the limit speed, press switch 2
(+) repeatedly to increase the speed or
switch 5 (-) to decrease.

tor pedal. While it is being exceeded,
the cruising speed flashes on the in-
strument panel.
Then, release the accelerator: after a
few seconds, the vehicle will automati-
cally return to its set cruising speed.
Cruising speed cannot be
maintained
When driving down a steep gradient,
the system is unable to maintain the
cruising speed: the stored speed will
flash on the instrument panel informa-
tion display to inform you of this situ-
ation.

Under the following conditions, the
parking distance control system
may not function:
– the sensors are obscured (dirt,
mud, snow, etc.);
Clean with a soft cloth.
– the sensors are frozen.
Under the following conditions, the
parking distance control system
may malfunction:
– uneven surface, gravel track, hill,
forest track, etc.
– floods or water splashes.
The system may not detect objects
such as the following:
– narrow obstacles (sharp-edged
objects or rope);
– materials which absorb sound
waves easily (cotton, sponge,
snow, etc.)

Driving in automatic mode
Select position D. In most traffic con-
ditions, you will not have to touch the
gear selector lever again: the gears will
change automatically at the right time
and at the most suitable engine speed
because the automatic system takes
into account the vehicle load and road
contour and adjusts itself to the particu-
lar driving style you have chosen.
Economical driving
When driving, always leave the lever
in position D, keeping the accelerator
pedal lightly depressed to ensure auto-
matic gear changes at a lower engine
speed.
Accelerating and overtaking
Depress the accelerator pedal firmly
and fully (so that it goes beyond the
kickdown point).
This will enable you to change down
to the optimum gear within the
engine range.
