STARTING, STOPPING THE ENGINE: vehicle with RENAULT card (3/3)
If the RENAULT card is no longer in the
passenger compartment when you try
to switch the engine off, the message
“No keycard Press and hold” appears

button 2 for longer than two seconds.
If the card is no longer in the passen-
ger compartment, make sure you can
retrieve it before pressing and holding
the button. Without the card RENAULT
, you will not be able to start.
With the engine switched off, any ac-
cessories being used (radio, etc.) will
continue to function for approximately
10 minutes.

Driver’s responsibility

Never leave an animal,
child or adult who is not self-suffi-
cient alone in your vehicle, even for
a short time.
They may pose a risk to themselves
or to others by starting the engine,
activating equipment such as the

Also, in hot and/or sunny weather,
please remember that the tempera-
ture inside the passenger compart-

RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS
INJURY.
Never switch off the igni-
tion before the vehicle has
stopped completely. Once
the engine has stopped, the
brake servo, power-assisted steer-
ing, etc. and the passive safety de-
vices such as air bags and preten-
sioners will no longer operate.

DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (1/10)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.).
– ABS (anti-lock braking system);
– ESC
(electronic stability control)
with understeer control and trac-
tion control;
– emergency brake assist;
– active emergency braking;
– hill start assistance;
– rear wheel steering.
Other driving assistance systems are
detailed on the following pages.
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.
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).

Operation
With the selection lever 1 in position P,

ing light
Ó on the display goes out),
move the lever out of position P.
Only engage D or R when the vehi-
cle is stopped, with your foot on the
brake and the accelerator pedal re-
leased.

ELECTRIC WINDOWS (2/2)
Operating faults
In case of a fault when closing a
window, the system reverts to normal
mode: pull the switch as many times as
necessary until the window closes com-
pletely, hold the switch (still on the clo-
sing side) for around one second, then
completely lower then raise the window
to reset the system.
If necessary, contact an approved
Dealer.
When closing the windows,
ensure that no part of the
body (arm, hand, etc.) is
protruding from the vehicle.
Risk of serious injury.
One-touch mode
This mode works in addition to the ope-
ration of the electric windows described
previously.
Briefly press or pull the window switch
fully: the window is fully lowered or
raised. Pressing the switch again stops
the window moving.
Note: if the window detects resistance
when closing (e.g.: branch of a tree,
etc.) it stops and then lowers again by a
few centimetres.
Remote control window closing
(vehicles with 4 one-touch electric win-
dows).
When you lock the doors from the out-
side, press the locking button on the
RENAULTcard twice in quick suc-
cession, or on the driver’s door in
hands-free mode, and all the windows
will close automatically (and, depend-
ing on the vehicle, the sunroof).
It is recommended that the user only
operates the system when the vehi-
cle can be seen clearly and no one is
inside.

4Driver’s responsibility
Never leave your vehicle
with the RENAULT card
inside, and never leave a
child who is not self-sufficient or a
pet, 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 something gets trapped, reverse
the direction of travel as soon as
possible by turning button 4 fully to
the right (position D).
Risk of serious injury.

3.24
ELECTRIC SUNROOF (2/3)
Special features
Your vehicle is fitted with an anti-pinch
facility: when the sunroof encounters
resistance whilst closing (branch of
a tree, etc.), it stops and then moves
back a few centimetres.
After closing the sunroof by remote
control, pressing button 4 allows the
sunroof to return to its previous posi-
tion.
Closing the sunroof by
remote control
If you press the locking button on
the card twice in quick succession
RENAULT,, the windows and the elec-
tric sunroof will close automatically.
It is recommended that the user only
operates the system when the vehi-
cle can be seen clearly and no one is
inside.
If the vehicle is equipped
with this function, this action
will activate deadlocking.
Refer to the information on
“RENAULT card: deadlocking" or
"Radiofrequency remote control:
deadlocking" in section 1.
Check that there is no-one still
inside the vehicle

When closing the sunroof,
ensure that no part of the
body (arm, hand, etc.) is
protruding from the vehicle.
Risk of serious injury.

Precautions during use
– Vehicle with loaded roof bars.As a general rule, if there is a load
on the roof, use of the sunroof is not
recommended.
Before using the sunroof, check the
objects and/or accessories (bike
racks, roof boxes, etc.) attached to
the roof bars: they should be prop-
erly arranged and secured and
should not interfere with the opera-
tion of the sunroof.
Contact an approved dealer for de-
tails of possible conversions;
– check that the sunroof is properly
closed before leaving your vehicle;
– clean the seal every three months using products recommended by our
Technical Department;
– do not open the sunroof immedi-
ately after it has rained or immedi-
ately after washing the vehicle.
Operating faults
If the sunroof will not close, move the
marked position 3 to position 0 then
press button 4 until the sunroof is com-
pletely closed: consult an approved
dealer.
