If  you  have  power-assisted  steering  
fitted,  do  not  leave  the  steering  wheel  
at  full  lock  when  the  vehicle  is  parked

The red warning light on the instrument

an incorrectly released handbrake.
t o apply:
Pull upwards, check that the vehicle is  
properly immobilised.
Make  sure  that  the  hand- 
brake  is  properly  released

apply the handbrake by at least two  
further  notches  and  engage  a  gear  
(1

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.

Rear bench seat
We would advise you to move the front  
seats  forward  slightly  to  make  it  easier  
to fold the seatback with the headrests  
in position.
Make sure the headrests are in the cor- 
rect  position  when  the  seat  is  returned  
to its upright position.
For  the  split  bench  seat  and  seatback,  
place  the  headrests  in  the  storage  po- 
sition,  then  fold  back  the  smaller  sec- 
tion of the seatback first followed by the  
larger section.
Lift  the  bench  seat  base  forwards  by  
p
ulling  the  two  rings  2 ,  one  after  the  
other.
Fold  the  seat  base  and  the  seatback  
into a vertical position.
t o fold down the bench seat
Move  one  of  the  two  levers  1   on  the  
right or left-hand side of the bench seat  
forwards.
For  a  single  section  bench  seat  and  
seatback,  arrange  the  central  belt  
flat on the seat base before folding the  
seatback.

For  safety  reasons,  carry  
out  any  adjustments  when  
the  vehicle  is  not  being  
driven.
When  moving  the  bench  
seat,  ensure  that  the  seat  
belt  catches  are  correctly  
locked in position.
When  the  bench  seat  has  been  put  
back  in  place,  make  sure  that  it  is  
correctly  locked  and  the  seat  belts  
are correctly repositioned.
When moving the rear bench  
seat,  make  sure  the  bench  
seat  anchorage  points  are  
clean  (they  should  be  free  
from grit, cloths etc.).
When refitting the seatback,  
make  sure  it  is  correctly  
locked.
If  using  seat  covers,  make  
sure  they  do  not  prevent  the  seat- 
back  and  seat  base  latches  from  
locking in. Ensure that the seat belts  
and seat belt fasteners are correctly  
positioned.
