STARTING, STOPPING THE ENGINE: vehicle with RENAULT CARD (2/3)
Operating faults
In certain cases, the RENAULT “hands-
free” card may not work:
– when the RENAULT card battery is drained, etc.;
– near to appliances operating on the same frequency as the card (moni-
tor, mobile phone, video game, etc.);
– vehicle located in a high electromag- netic radiation zone.
The message “Place card close START
and push” appears on the instrument
panel.
2
Accessories function(switching on the ignition)
Once you have gained access to your
vehicle, you may use some of its func-
tions (radio, navigation, wipers, etc.).
To use the other functions, with the
RENAULT card in the passenger com-
partment, press button 2 without press-
ing the pedals.
Depress the brake or clutch pedal, then
place the RENAULT 3 card (logo side)
in contact with the start button 2 for
around 2 seconds. Press the 2 button
to start the vehicle. The message goes
out.
3
Never leave your vehicle
with the RENAULT card in
the reader or in the pas-
senger compartment while
there is a child (or an animal) in the
vehicle, even for a short while.
They may pose a risk to themselves
or to others by starting the engine.
Risk of 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.

DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (1/5)

Gear change indicator 2
Depending on the vehicle, to obtain op-
timum consumption levels, a warning
light on the instrument panel lets you
know the best time to move up or down
a gear:
Š move up a gear;
‰ move down a gear.
If you regularly follow this indicator, you
will reduce your vehicle’s fuel consump-
tion.
Fuel consumption is accredited in ac-
cordance with a standard regulatory
method. Identical for all manufactur-
ers, this enables vehicles to be com-
pared with one another. Consumption
in real time depends on vehicle usage
conditions, the equipment fitted and the
user’s driving style. To optimise fuel
consumption, please refer to the follow-
ing advice.
Depending on the vehicle, you will have
various functions which enable you to
lower your fuel consumption:
– the rev counter;
– gear change indicator;
– the driving style indicator;
– the journey record and eco-driving
advice via the multimedia screen;
– ECO mode.
If fitted on the vehicle, the navigation
system provides additional information.
On the instrument panel
The information display can be organ-
ised and customised based on the in-
strument panel customisation style se-
lected from the multimedia screen.
Rev counter with ECO zone 1
Driving in the ECO zone helps you op-
timise fuel consumption under most cir-
cumstances.

2.22
DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (3/5)
ECO mode
ECO mode is a function which opti-
mises fuel consumption. It acts upon
certain power consuming systems in
the vehicle (heating, air conditioning,
power-assisted steering etc.) and on
certain driving actions (acceleration,
gear changing, cruise control, deceler-
ation etc.).
Limiting acceleration enables low fuel
consumption in urban and surrounding
areas. When ECO mode is in use, it is
normal to notice a change in the heat-
ing level.
Activating the function
The function can be activated:
– by pressing switch 4.
– Depending on the vehicle, from the navigation menu on the multimedia
screen (please refer to the multime-
dia instructions).
The warning light
comes on on
the instrument panel to confirm activa-
tion. Disabling the function
Press switch 4.
The warning light
goes out on
the instrument panel to confirm deac-
tivation.
While driving, it is possible to leave the
ECO mode temporarily in order to im-
prove engine performance.
For this, depress the accelerator pedal
firmly and fully.
ECO mode is reactivated when you
take pressure off the accelerator pedal.

TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (1/3)
Resetting the standard level
for the tyre pressures
This should be done:
– when the standard tyre pressure needs to be changed to adapt to
usage conditions (empty, carrying a
load, motorway driving, etc.);
– after swapping a wheel (however this practice is not recommended);
– after changing a wheel.
It should always be done after checking
the tyre pressure of all four tyres when
cold.
Tyre pressures must correspond to the
current usage of the vehicle (empty,
carrying a load, motorway driving, etc.).213
Resetting can also be done from the
multifunction screen 3 if your vehi-
cle is fitted with a navigation system.
Select the menu “Vehicle”, “Tyre
pressure”.
If the vehicle is equipped with the func-
tion, this system monitors the tyre pres-
sure.
Operating principle
Each wheel (except for the emergency
spare wheel) has a sensor in the infla-
tion valve which periodically measures
the tyre pressure.
The system displays the current pres-
sures on the instrument panel 1 and
alerts the driver in the event of insuffi-
cient pressure. Resetting procedure
With the ignition on:
– repeatedly and briefly press con-
trol 2 to select the tyre pressure dis-
play and the “Tyre pressure” func-
tion;
– press and hold (around 3 seconds) the button 2 to launch the reset. The
flashing tyres followed by the mes-
sages “Learning TP initiated” and
then “Tyres location in progress” in-
dicates that the reset request for the
tyre pressure reference value has
been acknowledged.
Reset can take several minutes of driv-
ing.
If the resetting is followed by short
trips, the message “Tyres location in
progress” can remain displayed after
successive restarts.
Note
The standard tyre pressure cannot be
less than that recommended and indi-
cated on the door frame.
