SPEED LIMITER FUNCTION (2/3)
Exceeding the limit speed
It is possible to exceed the limit speed
at any time. To do this: press the accel-
erator pedal firmly and fully (beyond
the resistance point).
While the speed is being exceeded, the
speed limiter flashes red on the instru-
ment panel.
Then, release the accelerator: the
speed limiter function will return as
soon as you reach a speed lower than
the stored speed.
Limited speed cannot be maintained
If driving up or down a steep gradient,
the system is unable to maintain the
limited speed: the memorised speed
flashes red on the instrument panel and
a beep sounds at regular intervals to
inform you.
Varying the limit speed
The speed limiter can be changed by
repeatedly pressing the switch 2:
– side a (+) to increase the speed;
– side b (-) to reduce the speed.
Driving
When a limited speed has been stored
and this speed is not reached, driving is
similar to driving a vehicle without the
speed limiter function.
Once you have reached the stored
speed, no effort on the accelera-
tor pedal will allow you to exceed
the programmed speed except in an
emergency (refer to information on
“Exceeding the limit speed”).
The speed limiter function is
in no way linked to the brak-
ing system.

CRUISE CONTROL FUNCTION (3/4)
Exceeding the cruising speed
The cruising speed may be exceeded
at any time by depressing the accelera-
tor pedal. While overtaking, the cruis-
ing speed flashes red on the instrument
panel.
Then, release the accelerator: after a
few seconds, the vehicle will automati-
cally return to its set cruising speed.
Cruising speed cannot be
maintained
If driving up or down a steep gradi-
ent, the system is unable to maintain
the cruising speed: the stored speed is
flashes red on the instrument panel to
inform you of this situation.
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.
The cruise control function
is in no way linked to the
braking system.

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.

ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (5/8)
Putting the cruise control
on standby or switching it
off does not cause a rapid
reduction in speed: you
must brake by depressing the brake
pedal.
Please note that you must
keep your feet close to the
pedals in order to react in
an emergency.
Under certain conditions (coming up
behind a vehicle moving more slowly,
rapid change of lane of vehicles in front
etc.), the system may not have time to
respond and may emit a beep along-
side the alert A when the situation re-
quires the driver’s attention, or the
alert B when the situation requires im-
mediate action from the driver.
React accordingly and perform the ap-
propriate manoeuvres.

ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (7/8)
This function is an additional driving aid. This function is not under any circumstances intended to replace the due\
care
and attention of the driver, who should at all times be in control of the vehicle.
The driver should always adapt their speed to the traffic conditions, regardless of the system indications.
The system should under no circumstances be taken to be an obstacle dete\
ctor or an anti-collision system.
System servicing/repairs
– In the event of an impact, the radar-camera alignment may be changed, an\
d its operation may consequently be affected. Deactivate the function and consult an authorised dealer.
– Any work in the area where the radar-camera is located (repairs, replac\
ements, windscreen modifications etc.) must be car- ried out by a qualified professional.
Only an authorised dealer is qualified to service the system.
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);
– traffic is heavy;
– the vehicle is travelling in a tunnel;
– the vehicle is travelling on a windy road;
– the windscreen is cracked or distorted (do not carry out windscreen rep\
airs in this area; have it changed by an Authorised Dealer);
– the vehicle is travelling on a slippery road or in poor weather conditio\
ns (fog, snow, rain, side winds etc.).
In the event of the system behaving abnormally, deactivate it and consult an authorised dealer.

ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (8/8)
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 should be kept clean and free of any modifications in o\
rder to ensure the proper operation of the
system.
– Fixed obstacles (stationary vehicles, traffic jams, toll booths etc.) or objects travelling at low speed or of a \
small size ( motor-
bikes, bicycles, pedestrians etc.) may not be detected by the system.
– A vehicle entering the same lane will only be detected once it has entere\
d the detection zone. Sudden or late braking may then take place.
– When entering a bend or curve, the radar-camera may temporarily no longe\
r detect the vehicle in front, and this may lead to acceleration.
– When exiting a curve, the detection of the vehicle in front may be affected or delayed. Sudden or late braking may then take place.
– A slower vehicle travelling in an adjacent lane may be detected and cause\
a slowing down if one of the two vehicles is trav- elling too close to the lane of the other.
– A slower vehicle with a wide difference in speed may not be taken into account by the system.
– The system is deactivated below around 31 mph (50 km/h). Drivers must \
react accordingly.
– Sudden changes in situation are not instantly taken into account by the \
system. Drivers must remain vigilant at all times and
under all circumstances.
System disturbance
Some conditions can disturb or damage the operation of the system, such \
as:
– a complex environment (metal bridge, tunnel etc.) ;
– poor weather conditions (snow, hail, black ice etc.);
– poor visibility (night, fog etc.);
– poor contrast between objects;
– being dazzled (glaring sun, lights of vehicles travelling in the opposi\
te direction etc.).
Risk of unwanted braking or acceleration.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (1/3)
Operation
With the selection lever 1 in position P,
switch on the ignition.
To move out of position P, you must de-
press the brake pedal before pressing
the unlocking button 2.
With your foot on the brake pedal
(warning light
Ó on the display 3
goes out), move the lever out of posi-
tion P.
Only engage D or R when the vehi-
cle is stopped, with your foot on the
brake and the accelerator pedal re-
leased.
Selector lever 1
P: park
R: reverse
N: Neutral
D: automatic mode
M: manual mode
Note: Press the button 2 to go from po-
sition D or N to R or P.
3: displays the gear engaged in manual
mode.
12
Driving in automatic mode
Move lever 1 to position D.
In most road conditions you will en-
counter, you will not need to touch your
lever again: the gears will change au-
tomatically at the right time and at the
most suitable engine speed because
the automatic system takes into ac-
count the vehicle load and road contour
and adjusts itself to the particular driv-
ing style you have chosen.
Economical driving
When driving, always leave the lever
in position D, keeping the accelerator
pedal lightly depressed to ensure auto-
matic gear changes at a lower engine
speed.
Accelerating and overtaking
Depress the accelerator pedal firmly
and fully (so that it goes beyond the
kickdown point).
This will enable you to change down
to the optimum gear within the
engine range.3

If fitted on the vehicle, the tailgate locks
and unlocks at the same time as the
doors.
Depending on the vehicle, you have se-
veral different ways to manoeuvre the
tailgate:
– using the RENAULT card remote control;
– using the controls on the tailgate;
– using the dashboard control;
– using the hands-free function.
AUTOMATIC TAILGATE (1/5)
Conditions of use
– Immobilise the vehicle.
– If there is any ice or snow prevent-ing the tailgate from opening, this ice
or snow must be removed to free the
tailgate.
– In the event that the battery is dis- charged or if it is changed, the tail-
gate should be closed (manually
if necessary) to restart the tailgate
motor.
Ensure that nobody is close
to the moving parts when
opening/closing the tail-
gate.
Risk of injury.
Opening/Closing
Activating the automatic tailgate ope-
ning or closing using the dashboard
control or using the RENAULT card
causes three beeps to sound just
before the tailgate begins to move.
When opening or closing the tail-
gate, ensure that nothing interferes
with the manoeuvre.
To avoid damaging the tailgate
system, do not manually force the
tailgate to open or close while it is
moving.
The attaching of any
carrying device (bike rack,
luggage box, etc.) resting
on the luggage compart-
ment lid is prohibited. To install a
carrying device on your vehicle,
contact an Approved Dealer.
