Driving
Once a cruising speed is stored and
the cruise control function is active,
you may lift your foot off the accelera-
tor pedal.
Important: you are never-
theless advised to keep
your feet close to the pedals
in order to react if neces-
sary.
Activating cruise control
At a steady speed (above 18 mph
(30 km/h approximately)) press switch 2
or (+): the function is activated and the
current speed is saved.
The cruising speed replaces the dashes
and cruise control is confirmed by the
appearance of the message “CRUISE”
or the warning light
 and the
warning light 7
 in green, as well as
warning light 6
, depending on the
vehicle.
Switching on
Press switch 1 side .
The warning light 6 comes on, lit green
and, depending on the vehicle, the
message “CRUISE” or the

warning light appear on the instrument
panel, accompanied by dashes to indi-
cate that the cruise control function is
activated and waiting to store a cruis-
ing speed.

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: 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 it is being exceeded,
the cruising speed flashes on the in-
strument 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
When driving down a steep gradient,
the system is unable to maintain the
cruising speed: the stored speed will
flash on the instrument panel informa-
tion display to inform you of this situ-
ation.
Adjusting the cruising speed
The cruising speed may be changed by
pressing the following repeatedly:
– switch 2 (+) to increase the speed,
– switch 3 (-) to decrease the speed.
The cruise control function
is in no way linked to the
braking system.

Switching off the function
The cruise control function is deacti-
vated if you press switch 1: in this case
a speed is no longer stored. The two in-
strument panel warning lights
 and
 go out to confirm that the function is
deactivated. Returning to the cruising speed
If a speed is stored, it can be recalled,
once you are sure that the road con-
ditions are suitable (traffic, road sur-
face, weather conditions, etc.). Press
switch 4 (R) if the vehicle speed is
above 20 mph (30 km/h).
When the stored speed is recalled, acti-
vation of the cruise control is confirmed
by the illumination of the
 warning
light.
NB: if the speed previously stored is
much higher than the current speed,
the vehicle will accelerate more rapidly
to reach this threshold.
When the cruise control function is
put on standby, pressing switch 2
(+) reactivates the cruise control
function without taking into account
the stored speed: it is the speed at
which the vehicle is moving that is
taken into account.
Putting the function on
standby
The function is set to standby if you:
– use the switch 5 (O);
– the brake pedal;
– the clutch pedal;
In all three cases, the cruising speed
remains stored and, depending on the
vehicle, the message “MEM” or the
warning light
 appear on the instru-
ment panel. Standby is confirmed by
the warning light
 going out.
CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function (4/4)
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.

Aide au parking (X92 - Renault) ENG_NU_975-8_X92_Dacia_2
This function is an addi-
tional aid that indicates the
distance between the vehi-
cle and an obstacle whilst
reversing, using sound signals.
Under no circumstances should it
replace the driver’s care or respon-
sibility whilst reversing.
The driver should always look out
for sudden hazards during driving:
always ensure that there are no
moving obstacles (such as a child,
animal, pram, bicycle, etc.) or small,
narrow objects such as stones or
posts in your path when manoeu-
vring.
Operating principle
Ultrasonic sensors, fitted in the vehi-
cle’s rear bumper, measure the dis-
tance between the vehicle and an ob-
stacle when reversing.
This measurement is indicated by
beeps which become more frequent the
closer you come to the obstacle, until
they become a continuous beep when
the vehicle is approximately 40 centi-
metres from the obstacle.
There is a beep when reverse gear is
engaged. If the beep sounds for a long
time (3 seconds), this signals an oper-
ating fault.
NB: ensure that the ultrasonic sensors
are not obscured (by dirt, mud, snow,
etc.).
PARKING DISTANCE CONTROL (1/2)
An impact to the under-
side of the vehicle while
manoeuvring (e.g.: strik-
ing a post, raised kerb or
other street furniture) may result in
damage to the vehicle (e.g.: defor-
mation of an axle).
To avoid any risk of accident, have
your vehicle checked by an ap-
proved dealer.

Caméra de recul (X92 - Dacia) ENG_NU_975-8_X92_Dacia_2
Note: make sure that the reversing
camera is not obscured (by dirt, mud,
snow, etc.).
REVERSING CAMERA (1/2)
Operation
When using reverse gear, the camera 1
located near the tailgate sends a view
of the area behind the vehicle to the
multimedia display 2 together with a
static guide line.
This system is used with the aid of a
fixed distance gauge. When the red
zone is reached, use the bumper image
to stop accurately.

This function is an additional aid. It cannot, therefore, under any circum-
stances replace the vigilance or the responsibility of the driver.
The driver should always pay attention to sudden incidents during driv-
ing: always ensure that there are no moving obstacles (such as a child,
animal, pram, bicycle, etc.) or small, narrow objects such as stones or posts in
your path when manoeuvring.

REVERSING CAMERA (2/2)
Static guide line 3:
The static guide line 3 has coloured
markers A, B and C showing the dis-
tance behind the vehicle:
– A (red) approximately 30 centime-
tres from the vehicle;
– B (yellow) approximately 70 centi-
metres from the vehicle;
– C (green) approximately 150 centi-
metres from the vehicle.This gauge remains fixed and indicates
the vehicle trajectory if the wheels are
in line with the vehicle.
The screen shows a reverse image.
The frames are a representation
projected onto flat ground; this in-
formation must not be taken into
account when superimposed on a
vertical object or an object on the
ground.
Objects which appear on the edge
of the screen may be deformed.
In very bright light (snow, vehicle in
sunshine etc.), the camera vision
may be adversely affected.

Selector lever 1
P: park
R: reverse
N: Neutral
D: automatic mode
M: manual mode
+: upper gear
–: lower gear
4: displays the gear engaged in manual
mode.
Note: Press the 2 button to go from po-
sition D or N to R or P.
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 3 on the display goes
out), move the lever out of position P.
The display 4 notifies the driver about
the current mode and gear.
Only engage D or R when the vehi-
cle is stopped, with your foot on the
brake and the accelerator pedal re-
leased.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (1/3)
Driving in automatic mode
Put lever 1 into 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.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (2/3)
Driving in manual modeWith the selector lever in position D,
move the lever to the left into the M
position. Shifting the lever repeatedly
allows you to change gears manually:
– to move down through the gears,
push the lever forwards;
– to move up through the gears, push
the lever backwards.
The gear selected is displayed on the
instrument panel.
Special circumstances
– If the bends and road surface do
not allow you to stay in automatic
mode (e.g. in the mountains), we
recommend that you change to
manual mode. This will prevent the
automatic gearbox from changing
gear repeatedly when climbing, and
permit engine braking on long de-
scents.
– On a slippery surface or surface
with little grip, change to manual
mode M and select second gear
before accelerating to avoid wheel-
spin.
Special cases
In certain driving conditions (e.g. re-
quiring engine protection, operation of
the Electronic Stability Program: ESC)
the automatic system may change the
gear automatically. Likewise, to prevent
incorrect manoeuvres, a gear change
may be refused by the automatic
system: in this case the gear display
flashes for a few seconds as a warning.
An impact to the under-
side of the vehicle while
manoeuvring (e.g.: strik-
ing a post, raised kerb or
other street furniture) may result in
damage to the vehicle (e.g.: defor-
mation of an axle).
To avoid any risk of accident, have
your vehicle checked by an ap-
proved Dealer.
When facing uphill, to remain
stopped, do not keep your foot on
the accelerator.
Risk of overheating the automatic
gearbox.

– In cold weather (temperatures
under -20°C), wait a few seconds
before moving the selector lever
from position P and engaging it in D
or R, then avoid strong acceleration
for the first few minutes to prevent
the engine stalling.
Parking the vehicle
When the vehicle is stopped, move the
lever to position P while keeping your
foot on the brake pedal: the gearbox is
in neutral and the drive wheels are me-
chanically locked by the driveshaft.
Apply the handbrake.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (3/3)
Operating faults
If a vehicle with an automatic gear-
box breaks down, please refer to
the information on “Towing” in Section
5. When setting off, if the lever is
locked in position P even though you
are pressing the brake pedal, the lever
can be released manually. To do this,
release the base of the lever, then use
a tool (rigid rod) in the slot 5 and simul-
taneously press button 6 to unlock the
lever.
Contact an authorised dealer as soon
as possible.
In very cold weather, the system
may prevent the gears from being
shifted in manual mode until the
gearbox reaches the right tempera-
ture.
Towing a vehicle with an
automatic gearbox
With the engine switched off, the trans-
mission is no longer lubricated. It is
preferable to tow this type of vehicle on
a trailer or tow it with the front wheels
off the ground.
Under exceptional circumstances, you
may tow the vehicle with all four wheels
on the ground, only going forward, with
the gear lever in the neutral N position,
and for a distance not exceeding
30 miles (50 km).
For safety reasons, do not
switch off the ignition before
the vehicle has come to a
complete standstill.
