Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)
warning light (where fitted)
When the DPF warning light illuminates, it indicates
that particulate matter is accumulated to the speci- fied amount of the limit in the filter and the filter
needs to regenerate. For filter regeneration details,
see “Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) (where fitted)” in
the “5. Starting and driving” section.
CAUTION
If you continue driving with the DPF warning light
on without performing the filter regeneration, this
will lead to particulate matter overload in the fil-
ter.
If this occurs, then the Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL) will turn on. The performance of the engine
might be limited to protect the DPF system. See
an approved dealer or qualified workshop to per-
form the service regeneration. Door open warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON position, the
door open warning light illuminates if any of the doors
are open or not closed securely. Electronic Stability Programme
(ESP) warning light (where fitted)
When the ignition switch is in the ON position, the
Electronic Stability Programme (ESP) warning light illuminates and then turns off. The warning light blinks when the ESP system is
operating.
When the warning light blinks while driving, the driv-
ing condition is slippery and the vehicle’s traction
limit is about to be exceeded.
If the ESP warning light illuminates while the engine
is running or while driving, it may indicate that the
ESP system is not functioning properly and may
need servicing. Have the system checked, and if
necessary repaired, by an approved dealer or quali-
fied workshop promptly. If amalfunction occurs, the
ESP function is turned off, but the vehicle is still driv-
able. (See “Electronic Stability Programme (ESP)
system (where fitted)” in the “5. Starting and driving”
section.) Engine oil pressure warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON position, the
engine oil pressure warning light illuminates. After
starting the engine, the engine oil pressure warning
light turns off. This indicates that the oil pressure
sensors in the engine are operational.
If the engine oil pressure warning light illuminates or
blinks while the engine is running, it may indicate
that the engine oil pressure is low.
Stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible. Stop
the engine immediately and call an approved dealer
or qualified workshop. CAUTION
• Running the engine with the engine oil pres-
sure warning light illuminated could cause se-
rious damage to the engine.
• The engine oil pressure warning light is not
designed to indicate
alow oil level. The oil
level should be checked using the dipstick.
(See “Checking engine oil level” in the
“8. Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section.) Engine temperature warning
light (red/blue) (where fitted)
High temperature indicator light (Red):
The red warning light comes on when the engine
overheats. WARNING
If the high temperature warning light illuminates
while the engine is running, it may indicate the
engine temperature is extremely high. Stop the
vehicle safely as soon as possible. If the vehicle
is overheated, continuing vehicle operation may
seriously damage the engine.
• If the engine coolant temperature warning
light (RED) comes on while driving, stop the
vehicle as soon as possible and contact an
approved dealer or qualified workshop.
• When towing
atrailer or driving uphill, reduce
the vehicle speed as soon as safely possible
to decrease the engine coolant temperature.

31. Low fuel level warning
The low fuel level warning appears on the vehicle
information display when the fuel level in the tank is
getting low. Refuel as soon as it is convenient, pref-
erably before the gauge reads the empty position.
For further details, see “Fuel gauge” earlier in this
section. OIL CONTROL SYSTEM (where fitted
for diesel engine model)
When the ignition switch is in the
ONposition, en-
gine oil information is displayed.
Engine oil information informs the distance to oil
change, oil level indication and malfunction of oil
level sensor. 1. Distance to oil change
The distance to oil change is displayed if the dis-
tance to oil change is less than 1,500 km (930 miles).
2. Oil replacement indicator
When the set mileage approaches, the engine oil
replacement indicator will appear on the display.
After the oil is changed, reset the distance to oil
change. The oil replacement indicator will not be
reset automatically. To reset this indicator, see
“Settings” earlier in this section.
The distance to oil change interval cannot be ad-
justed manually. The distance to oil change interval
is set automatically.
CAUTION
•
If the oil replacement indicator is displayed,
change the engine oil as soon as possible.
Operating your vehicle with deteriorated oil
can damage the engine.
• Never perform reset if the engine oil was not
changed. Always visit an approved dealer or
qualified workshop to perform the engine oil
change including an oil filter change and the
reset.
NOTE
• It is not possible to undo the reset.
• Resetting the oil change distance is only pos-
sible when:
–T
he distance to oil change is displayed in
the vehicle information display. JVI1244X
Instruments and controls
2-29

–T
he oil replacement indicator is displayed
in the vehicle information display.
• The engine oil should be changed before the
distance to oil change reaches
0km(0miles).
Continued driving after the distance to oil
change reaches 0km(0miles) may result in
reduced engine performance.
• The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) may also
become saturated because regeneration is
restricted once the distance to oil change
reaches 0km(0m iles).
Have the vehicle inspected by an approved
dealer or qualified workshop if the above con-
dition occurs.
• The oil change interval will reduce faster with
certain types of driving, especially at low
speeds in urban conditions.
3. Low level reminder
If the low level indicator is displayed, the engine oil level is low. If the low level reminder is displayed,
check the level using the engine oil dipstick. (See
“Checking engine oil level” in the “8. Maintenance
and do-it-yourself” section.)
CAUTION
The oil level should be checked regularly using
the engine oil dipstick. Operating with an insuffi-
cient amount of oil can damage the engine and
such damage is not covered by the warranty. 4. Oil level sensor warning
If the oil sensor warning is displayed, the engine oil
level sensor may be malfunctioning. Contact an ap-
proved dealer or qualified workshop immediately.
CLOCK AND OUTSIDE AIR
TEMPERATURE (where fitted)
The clock
➀and outside air temperature
➁are
displayed on the upper side of the vehicle informa-
tion display.
[Clock]
For details of how to set the clock, see “Settings”
earlier in this section or the separately provided
Touchscreen Navigation Owner’s manual.
[Outside Temp.] (°C or °F)
The outside air temperature is displayed in °C or °F
in the range of −40 to 60°C (−40 to 140°F). The outside air temperature mode includes
alow
temperature warning feature. If the outside air tem-
perature is below 3°C (37°F), the warning ➂is dis-
played on the screen (where fitted).
The outside temperature sensor is located in front of
the radiator. The sensor may be affected by road or
engine heat, wind directions and other driving con-
ditions. The display may differ from the actual out-
side temperature or the temperature displayed on
various signs or billboards. JVI0932XZ

Condition A
This warning appears if there is amalfunction in the
AdBlue® SCR system.
Have the system checked by an approved dealer or
qualified workshop as soon as possible.
Condition B This warning provides you with an estimation of the
distance (0 to 1000 km (0 to 621 miles)) that can be
driven before inspecting and/or repairing the Ad-
Blue® SCR system.
Condition C
• If this warning appears while the engine is
stopped, the engine cannot be started. Contact
an approved dealer or qualified workshop.
• If this warning appears while the engine is run-
ning, the vehicle can still be driven to the nearest
approved dealer or qualified workshop.
• If the ignition switch is turned off while this warn-
ing appears, the engine can be restarted within
3m
inutes. Stop the vehicle in asafe place and
contact an approved dealer or qualified work-
shop.
Have the AdBlue® SCR system inspected and/or
repaired by an approved dealer or qualified work-
shop as soon as possible. WARNING
• Be careful not to burn yourself with exhaust
gases.
• Do not park the vehicle over flammable mate-
rials such as dry grass, waste paper or rags,
as they may burn easily.
CAUTION
To maintain maximum Diesel Particulate Filter
(DPF) performance, follow these precautions:
• Use low-sulphur fuel.
• Use an engine oil specified by RENAULT. (Re-
fer to the maintenance service booklet for
your vehicle.) If an engine oil not
aspecified
by RENAULT is used, it could cause DPF mal-
function or reduced fuel efficiency.
• Do not modify the DPF, muffler or exhaust
pipe. Otherwise it could affect the DPF perfor-
mance and cause
amalfunction.
• Do not kick or hit the DPF. The DPF has a
built-in catalyst system in the muffler. Such
an impact could cause DPF damage. JVM0546XZ

DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
(DPF) (where fitted)
Starting and driving 5-5

The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) reduces the
amount of materials that affect the environment by
collecting particulate matter included in exhaust
gases. Normally, particulate matter accumulated in
the DPF is automatically burned and converted to
harmless substances during driving. However, par-
ticulate matter collected in the DPF cannot be
burned under the following conditions:
• When vehicle speed remains below 15 km/h (10
MPH) for
along period of time.
• When the engine is frequently stopped and re-
started within 10 minutes.
• When the vehicle is frequently used for short
journeys of 10 minutes or less.
• When the engine is frequently stopped before it
has warmed up.
In these cases, it becomes difficult to burn particu-
late matter that has accumulated in the DPF auto-
matically. As aresult, the DPF warning light in the
meter will illuminate and the indicator light on the
DPF regeneration switch will blink. This is not amal-
function.
If the DPF warning light comes on, perform the DPF
regeneration process.
CAUTION
If the vehicle continues to be driven with the DPF
warning light illuminated and without doing the
regeneration process, the fail-safe will limit the
engine revolutions and/or torque. In this case, the engine oil must be replaced and the process
of service regeneration must be carried out by an
approved dealer or qualified workshop.
The service regeneration is not covered by the
warranty.
AUTOMATIC REGENERATION
If the DPF warning light comes on, it indicates that
particulate matter has accumulated in the DPF to
the specified limit. Particulate matter collected in the
DPF cannot be burned under low speed driving con-
ditions.
As soon as safely possible, drive the vehicle at a
high speed (more than approximately 80 km/h (50
MPH)) until the DPF warning light turns off. Always
conform to local regulations.
When the accumulated particulate matter has been
completely burned, the DPF warning light will turn
off. Pick-up vehicles have
asignificantly higher roll-
over rate than other types of vehicles.
They have higher ground clearance than passenger
cars to make them capable of performing in awide
variety of on-pavement and off-road applications.
This gives them ahigher centre of gravity than ordi-
nary cars. An advantage of higher ground clearance
is ab etter view of the road, allowing you to antici-
pate problems. However, they are not designed for
cornering at the same speeds as conventional pas-
senger cars any more than low-slung sports cars
are designed to perform satisfactorily under off-road
conditions. If at all possible, avoid sharp turns or
abrupt manoeuvres, particularly at high speeds. As
with other vehicles of this type, failure to operate
this vehicle correctly may result in loss of control or
vehicle rollover.
For information about driving using Four-Wheel
Drive (4WD) (where fitted), see “Four-Wheel Drive
(4WD) (where fitted)” later in this section.
