The displayed temperature values
show a comfort level.
When starting the engine, increas-
ing or decreasing the value dis-
played will not allow the com-
fort level to be reached any more
quickly. The system will always op-
timise the temperature increase or
decrease (the ventilation system
does not start instantly at maximum
speed: it gradually increases). This
may take several minutes.
Generally speaking, unless there is
a particular reason not to, the dash-
board air vents should remain open.
You are recommended to use automatic mode by selecting one of the auto-
matic programmes A
u To , S o FT or FAST.
In automatic mode (indicator light for button
3 on), all heating and air conditioning
functions are controlled by the system.
You can also change the system selection, in this case, indicator light for button
3
will go out and the changed function, which is no longer controlled by the system,
is shown on display

To return to automatic mode, press one of the A

Air conditioning: information and advice on use
AIR coNDITIoNINg: information and advice on use
Fuel consumption
You will normally notice an increase
in fuel consumption (especially
when driving in town) when the air
conditioning is operating.
For vehicles fitted with manual air
conditioning, switch off the system
when it is not required.
Advice for reducing
consumption and therefore
helping to preserve the
environment:
Drive with the air vents open and
the windows closed.
If the vehicle has been parked in
the sun, open the doors for a few
moments to let the hot air escape
before starting the engine.
Maintenance
Refer to the Maintenance Service
Booklet for your vehicle for the in-
spection frequency.operating faults
As a general rule, contact your ap-
proved Dealer in the event of an op-
erating fault:
–

r
eduction in de-icing, demist-
ing or air conditioning per-
formance. This may be caused
by the passenger compartment
filter cartridge becoming clogged;
–

no
cold air is being produced.
Check that the controls are set
correctly and that the fuses are
sound. Otherwise, switch off the
system.
Advice on use
In some situations, (air conditioning
off, air recirculation activated, venti-
lation speed at zero or low, etc.) you
may notice that condensation starts
to form on the windows and wind-
screen.
If there is condensation, use the
“
c lear View” function to remove it,
then use the air conditioning in auto-
matic mode to stop it forming again.
If the condensation does not clear,
use the FAST programme.
Do not open the refriger-
ant fluid circuit. The fluid
may damage eyes or skin.
Note
Presence of water under the ve-
hicle. After prolonged use of the air
conditioning system, it is normal for
water to be present under the vehi-
cle. This is caused by condensation.

These systems operate with the igni-
tion on or off, until one of the front doors
is opened (limited to about 3 minutes).
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

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.

Electric windows
Press or pull the switch to raise or lower
a window to the desired height (the rear
windows do not open fully);
o
ne-touch mode
This mode works in addition to the
operation of the electric windows de-
scribed previously. It either operates on

Safety of rear occupants
The driver can disable op-
eration of the electric win-
dows and, depending on
the vehicle, the rear doors, by
pressing switch
4 .

The indicator
light integrated in the switch lights
up to confirm that the locks have
been activated.
Driver’s responsibility
Never leave your vehicle with the
RENAULT card inside and never
leave a child (or a pet) unsuper-
vised, even for a short while. They
may pose a risk to themselves or to
others by starting the engine, acti-
vating equipment such as the elec-
tric windows or by locking the doors.
If any part of the body becomes
trapped, reverse the direction of the
window immediately by pressing the
relevant 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.

Special noteYour vehicle is equipped with an antip-
inch facility: when the sunroof encoun-
ters resistance whilst closing, (some-
body’s fingers, etc.) it stops and then
moves back several centimetres.
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.
The reason for this is that the child
may endanger himself or others by
starting the engine, activating equip-
ment such as the window winders
for example, or locking the doors.
If a body part gets trapped, reverse
the direction of travel as soon as
possible by turning button
9 fully to
the right (position

Closing the bonnet
Check that nothing has been left in the
engine compartment.
To close the bonnet again, hold the
bonnet in the middle and guide it down,
allowing a 30 cm gap before it is closed,
then release it. It will latch automatically
under its own weight.
Check that it is correctly
locked.
The engine may be hot
when carrying out opera-
tions in close proximity. In
addition, the engine cooling
fan can come on at any moment.
Risk of injury.
In the event of an impact,
even slight, against the ra-
diator grille or bonnet, have
the bonnet catch checked
by an approved dealer as soon as
possible.Do not press down on the
bonnet: there is a risk that
the bonnet will close inad-
vertently.
1After carrying out any work
in the engine compart-
ment, check that nothing
has been left behind (cloth,
tools, etc.).
These may damage the engine or
cause a fire.

i

t is vital to top up the oil as soon as
possible.
The display only warns the
driver if the oil level is at the
minimum level. It does not
inform the driver that the oil
level has exceeded the maximum
level as this can only be measured
using a dipstick.
It is normal for an engine to use oil for
lubrication and cooling of moving parts
and it is normal to top up the level be-
tween oil changes.
However, contact your approved
Dealer if more than 0.5 litres is being
consumed every 600 miles (1,000 km)
after the running in period.
Oil change frequency: check the oil
level from time to time and certainly
before any long journey to avoid the
risk of damaging your engine.
Reading the oil level
The oil level should be read with the ve-
hicle on level ground, after the engine
has been switched off for some time.
th

e dipstick must be used to read
the exact oil level and make sure
that the maximum level has not been
exceeded (risk of engine damage).
Refer to the following pages.
The instrument panel display only
alerts the driver when the oil level is at
its minimum.

Reading the level using the
dipstick
– remove the dipstick and wipe with a
clean, lint-free cloth;
–

p
ush the dipstick in as far as it will
go (for vehicles equipped with a cap-
type dipstick
C, screw the cap in as
far as it will go);
–

take out the dipstick again;
–


r
ead the level: it should never fall
below minimum mark
A

or exceed
maximum mark
B.
Once the operation has been com-
pleted, ensure that the dipstick is
pushed in as far as it will go or that
the “cap-type dipstick” is completely
screwed in.
Consult your approved Dealer at
once if you notice an abnormal or
repeated drop in any of the fluid
levels.
The engine may be hot
when carrying out opera-
tions in close proximity. In
addition, the engine cooling
fan can come on at any moment.
Risk of injury.
Maximum engine oil level
exceeded.
The oil level should only be read with
the dipstick as explained above.
If the oil level exceeds the maximum
level, do not start your vehicle and
contact an approved Dealer.
Under no circumstances
should maximum filling
level
B

be exceeded: this
could damage the engine
and the catalytic converter.
In order to prevent splashback, it is
recommended that a funnel be used
when topping up/filling with oil
