Special cases
– For vehicles using a RENAULT card, while the system is operating and
the engine is in standby (traffic jam,
traffic lights, etc.), if the driver gets
out of their seat or unfastens their
seatbelt and opens the driver's door,
the ignition will be switched off. To
restart and reactivate the Stop and
Start system, press the start button
(please refer to "Starting, stopping
the engine" in Section 2).
– In the event of the engine stalling, if the system is operational, press
down the clutch pedal as far as it will
go to restart.
– the outdoor temperature is too low or
too high (less than around 0 °C or
higher than around 35 °C);
– the battery is not sufficiently charged;
– the difference between the vehicle interior temperature and the auto-
matic climate control instruction is
too high;
– the “Clear View” function is activated (please see the information on “Air
conditioning” in Section 3);
– the engine coolant temperature is too low;
– automatic particle filter cleaning is underway;
– the “Fast Idle Speed” function is acti- vated (please refer to the information

engine standby is not available.
To fill up with fuel, the engine must
be stopped (and not on standby):
stop the engine (please refer to the
information on “Starting and stop-
ping the engine” in Section 2).
Special features of vehicles with
remote control
Some of these conditions prevent the
engine from automatically restarting
upon opening:
– one of the doors for vehicles using a key;
– the passenger side door for vehicles using a RENAULT card.

Depending on the vehicle, certain con-
ditions prevent the system from using
the engine standby function, including
when:

DRIVING CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (1/5)
Operating faults:
–
© and x lit up on the in-
strument panel accompanied by the
messages “CHECK ABS”, “CHECK
BRAKING SYSTEM” and “Check
ESC”: this indicates that the ABS,
the ESC and the emergency brake
assist are disabled. Braking is
always enabled;
–
x, D, © and ® lit
up on the instrument panel alongside
the message “Braking system fault”:
this indicates a fault in the braking
system.
In both cases, please consult an
Authorised Dealer.
Anti-lock braking system
(ABS)
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 per-
formance relating to the road surface
and road-holding. 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.).
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.
Your braking systems
are partially operational.
However, it is dangerous
to brake suddenly and
it is essential to stop immediately,
as soon as traffic conditions allow.
Contact an approved dealer.
Depending on the vehicle, this is com-
posed of:
– anti-lock braking system (ABS);
– electronic stability program (ESC) with understeer control and trac-
tion control;
– driver assistance with a trailer;
– emergency brake assist;
– grip control;
– hill start assistance.
