system. Stop immediately, switch off
the ignition and contact an approved
Dealer.
Coolant temperature warning light
If this light comes on (continuously

Before driving at night,
check that the electrical
equipment is operating cor-
rectly and adjust the head-
light beams (if your vehicle is not
carrying its normal load). As a gen-
eral precaution, check that the lights
are not obscured (by dirt, mud, snow
or objects being transported).If the vehicle is parked on
the hard shoulder with tail-
gate open, the rear lights
may be obscured. You
should make other road users aware
of your vehicle by using a warning
triangle or other equipment speci-
fied by the road traffic regulations of
the country you are driving in.

Exhaust gas monitoring
system
The exhaust gas monitoring system
will detect any operating faults in the
vehicle’s antipollution system.
If this system malfunctions, toxic sub-
stances may be released into the at-
mosphere or damage may occur.
ÄThe instrument panel warning
light shows any system faults:
This comes on when the ignition is
switched on and goes out after 3 sec-
onds.
–
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.
ADvIcE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (2/3)
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.
– Sporty driving uses a lot of fuel: drive
with a light right foot. –
Brake as little as possible by suitably
anticipating an obstacle or bend and
then simply releasing the accelerator
pedal.
–
Avoid sudden acceleration.
– Do not overrev the engine in the in -
termediate gears. Always use the
highest gear possible without labour-
ing the engine.
–
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 depth of water is
above the lower edge of
the wheel rims.

an incorrectly released handbrake.
t o apply:
Pull upwards, check that the vehicle is

heating may occur.

stopped, depending on the
gradient and/or the vehicle
load, it may be necessary to
apply the handbrake by at least two
further notches and engage a gear
(1
st or reverse).
Never switch off the igni-
tion when travelling down-
hill, and avoid doing so in
normal driving (assistance
is not provided).An impact to the underside of the vehicle (e.g.: striking a post, raised kerb
or other street furniture) may result in damage to the vehicle (e.g.: defor-
mation of an axle).
To avoid any risk of accident, have your vehicle checked by an approved
dealer.

Système antiblocage des roues : ABS (X76 - Renault)

Anti-lock braking system
ANtI-locK BRAKING SyStEM: ABS
Depending on the vehicle, this is com-
posed of:
–
ABS (anti-lock braking system);
– emergency brake assist with, de -
pending on the vehicle, braking
anticipation;
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. th
ey 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.
operating faults:
– If the
x warning light on the in-
strument panel comes on while driv-
ing, braking is still operational ;
–
If the
x and D warning
lights on the instrument panel come
on when driving, this indicates a
fault with the braking system.
In such cases, the ABS and emergency
brake assist are also deactivated and,
depending on the vehicle, the mes-
sages “check ABS” and “check brak-
ing system” appear on the instrument
panel.
Consult an approved dealer.
Yo u r b r a k i n g s y s t e m s
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.
