TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (3/3)
Tyre repair product and
inflation kit
Because the valves are specially de-
signed, only use equipment approved
by the approved network. Please refer
to “Tyre inflation kit” in Section 5.
Replacing wheels/tyres
This system requires specific equip-
ment (wheels, tyres, hubcaps, etc.).
Please see the information on “Tyres”
in Section 5.
Contact an approved Dealer to fit new
tyres and to find out about available ac-
cessories compatible with the system
and available from your dealer net-
work: the use of any other accessory
could affect the correct operation of the
system or damage a sensor.
Emergency spare wheel
If the vehicle is equipped with an emer-
gency spare wheel, it will not have a
sensor.
Changing a wheel
The system may take sev-
eral minutes depending on
use for the new wheel po-
sitions and pressures to be recog-
nised; check the tyre pressures after
all operations.
“Tyres location in progress”
This message “Tyres location in
progress” appears when driving if one
or more wheels have been fitted with
sensors not recognised by Renault.
Consult an approved dealer
Readjustment of tyre
pressures
The tyre pressures should be ad-
justed when cold (please refer to the
label located on the edge of the driver’s
door). If the tyre pressures cannot be
checked when the tyres are cold, the
recommended pressures should be in-
creased by 0.2 to 0.3 bar (3 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.
This function is an addi-
tional driving aid.
However, the function is
not intended to replace the
driver. It cannot, therefore, under
any circumstances replace the vig-
ilance or the responsibility of the
driver. Check the tyre pressures, in-
cluding the emergency spare wheel,
once a month.

DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (1/5)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;
– hill start assistance.
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.
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 vigi-
lance or responsibility of the driver
when manoeuvring the vehicle (the
driver must always be ready for
sudden incidents which may occur
when driving).

2.46
ACTIVE EMERGENCY BRAKING (7/7)
Limitation of the system operation
– A vehicle travelling in the opposite direction will not trigger any alert\
or any action on the system operation.
– The radar-camera area on the windscreen should be kept clean and free of\
any modifications in order to ensure the
proper operation of the system.
– The system cannot respond to small vehicles such as motorbikes or bicycl\
es as effectively as to other vehicles.
– The system may not operate properly when the road surface is slippery (\
rain, snow, black ice etc.).
– To ensure correct operation, the system needs to distinguish the complete\
outline of the pedestrian. So the system cannot detect:
– pedestrians in the darkness or in poor lighting conditions;
– partially visible pedestrians:
– pedestrians less than approximately 80 cm tall;
– pedestrians carrying large objects;
– ...
Deactivating the function
You must disable the function if:
– the brake lights are not functioning;
– the area of the radar-camera has been damaged (on the windscreen side o\
r the interior rear-view mirror side);
– the vehicle is being towed (breakdowns);
– the windscreen is cracked or distorted (do not carry out repairs on thi\
s area of the windscreen; have it changed by an Authorised Dealer).
Halting the function
You can halt the active braking function at any time by tapping the accel\
erator pedal or by turning the steering wheel in a avo id-
ance manoeuvre.
In the event of the system behaving abnormally, deactivate it and consult an authorised dealer.

2.55
BLIND SPOT WARNING (1/4)
This system alerts the driver to other
vehicles in the detection zone A.
The system is activated when the ve-
hicle’s speed is between approxi-
mately 30 km/h (19 mph) and 140 km/h
(87 mph).
This function uses sensors 1 installed in
the front and rear bumper of both sides.

A
Special featureMake sure that the sensors are not ob-
scured (by dirt, mud, snow, etc.).
If a sensor is obscured, the message
“Blind spotclean sensor” will appear on
the instrument panel. Clean the sen-
sors.
AThis function is an addi-
tional aid which indicates
other vehicles in the blind
spot area.
It can never in any case be a sub-
stitute for care nor for the driver’s
responsibility while in charge of his
vehicle.
The driver should always be ready
for sudden incidents while driv-
ing: always ensure that there are
no small, narrow moving obstacles
(such as a child, animal, pushchair,
bicycle, stone, post etc.) in the blind
spot when manoeuvring.

2.62
FATIGUE DETECTION WARNING (1/2)
This function analyses the behaviour
of the driver at the steering wheel and
warns him of the risk of fatigue.
This function is an addi-
tional driving aid in case of
risk of fatigue. The function
does not take the place of
the driver.
Under no circumstances should this
function replace the driver’s care or
responsibility whilst driving.
Activation/deactivation

system remembers its position
when the ignition was last switched
off.

2.70
CRUISE CONTROL (1/4)
The cruise control function helps you to
maintain your driving speed at a speed
that you choose, called the cruising
speed.
This cruising speed may be set at any
speed above 20 mph (30 km/h).
The cruise control function
is in no way linked to the
braking system.
This function is an addi-
tional driving aid. The func-
tion does not take the place
of the driver. Therefore, it
can under no circumstances replace
the driver’s responsibility to respect
speed limits and to be vigilant (the
driver must always be ready to
brake). Cruise control must not be
used in heavy traffic, on winding or
slippery roads (black ice, aquaplan-
ing, gravel) and during bad weather
(fog, rain, side winds etc.).
There is a risk of accidents.
Controls
1 Main “On/Off” switch.
2 Controls for:
a cruising speed activation, storage
and increase (+);
b decreasing cruising speed (-).
3 Activation with recall of saved cruis- ing speed (R).
4 Switch the function to standby (with cruising speed saved) (O).

ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (1/8)
The adaptive cruise control is a func-
tion which gives you the option, when
traffic conditions permit (large free-flow-
ing road or motorway), of maintaining
a chosen speed, known as the cruising
speed, while keeping a safe distance
from the vehicle in front in the same
lane.
The function can be adjusted from
31 mph (50 km/h) to 99.2 mph
(160 km/h).
The radar-camera has a range of
around 120 metres.
Note:
– the driver should take account of the maximum legally permissible speed
in the country where the vehicle is
travelling;
– the adaptive cruise control can brake the vehicle up to a third of the brak-
ing capacity. Depending on the situ-
ation, the driver may need to brake
harder.
This function is an addi-
tional driving aid.
Therefore, it can under no
circumstances replace the
driver’s responsibility to respect
speed limits and to be vigilant (the
driver must always be ready to
brake).
The adaptive cruise control should
not be used in heavy traffic, on
winding or slippery roads (black ice,
aquaplaning, gravel) and during bad
weather (fog, rain, side winds etc.).
There is a risk of accidents.
Location of the radar-
camera 1
Make sure the windscreen is not ob-
scured (dirt, mud, snow, condensation
etc.).
On equipped vehicles, some infor-
mation is given on the head-up dis-
play.

Driving
Once a cruising speed is memorised
and the cruise control function is active,
you may lift your foot off the accelera-
tor pedal.
If a following distance is stored and a
vehicle travelling slower than yours is
detected by the system in your lane,
your vehicle will brake (with the brake
lights on) and adapt its speed to that of
the vehicle in front, respecting the fol-
lowing distance selected previously.
Overtaking
If your speed is lower than the cruise
control and you wish to perform an
overtaking manoeuvre, activating the
direction indicator will provide acceler-
ation enabling the overtaking manoeu-
vre.
Please note that you must
keep your feet close to the
pedals in order to react in
an emergency.
ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (3/8)
Adjusting the cruising speed
The cruising speed can be changed by
pressing the switch 2 repeatedly:
– side a (+) to increase the speed;
– side b (-) to reduce the speed.
Varying the following
distance
You can vary the following distance
from the vehicle in front at any time by
pressing switch 6 repeatedly.
Horizontal following bars will be dis-
played on the instrument panel, indicat-
ing the following distance selected:
– one bar for a short distance (cor- responding to a following time of
around one second);
– two bars for a medium distance;
– three bars for a long distance (cor- responding to a following time of
around two seconds).
Choosing the distance should depend
on the traffic, the laws in your country,
and on the weather conditions.
If a vehicle is detected by the system in
your lane, an outline A of a vehicle will
appear above the following bars.
