STARTING, STOPPING THE ENGINE: vehicle with key
Starting the engine
Petrol versions– Activate the starter without ac-
celerating;
– release the key as soon as the
engine starts.
ÉDiesel versions
– Turn the ignition key to the
“Ignition on” position M, and hold
this position until the engine pre-
heating light goes off;
– turn the key to starter position D

Special note: if starting the engine
when the outdoor temperature is very
low (below - 10 ° C): hold down the
clutch pedal until the engine starts.
Never start your vehicle
while freewheeling on a
gradient. Risk of non-ac-
tivation of power-assisted
steering.
There is a risk of accidents.
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.
Driver’s responsibility
when parking or stopping
the vehicle
Never leave an animal,
child or adult who is not self-suffi-
cient alone in your vehicle, even for
a short time.
They may pose a risk to themselves
or to others by starting the engine,
activating equipment such as the
electric windows or locking the
doors, for example.
Also, in hot and/or sunny weather,
please remember that the tempera-
ture inside the passenger compart-
ment increases very quickly.
RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS
INJURY.
Stopping the engine
With the engine idling, turn the key to
the “Stop” position St.

2.6
STARTING, STOPPING THE ENGINE: vehicle with RENAULT CARD (2/3)

– 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.

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.

2.8
For manual gearboxes:
– the gearbox is in neutral;
and
– the clutch pedal is released. If the warning light
 flashes, this
means that the clutch pedal is not
sufficiently released;
and
– the vehicle speed is less than ap- proximately 7 mph (3 km/h).
For all vehicles:
Warning light
 on the instru-
ment panel is lit when the engine is on
standby.
The vehicle equipment remain opera-
tional while the engine is stopped.
STOP AND START FUNCTION (1/4)
This system enables a reduced fuel
consumption and lower greenhouse
gas emissions.
The system is activated automatically
when the vehicle is started.
While driving, the system stops the
engine (standby) when the vehicle is
at a standstill (traffic jam, traffic lights,
etc).
Conditions for engine
standby

was parked;
For automatic gearboxes:
– the gearbox is in position D, M or N;
and
– the brake pedal is depressed (suffi- ciently hard);
and
– the accelerator pedal is not de- pressed;
and
– the speed is zero for around 1 second.
The engine remains on standby if posi-
tion P is selected, or if position N is se-
lected with the handbrake engaged and
the brake pedal released.
If the engine is put in
standby, the electronic par-
king brake (depending on
the vehicle) is not applied
automatically.
Engine on standby - braking
assistance is no longer ope-
rational.
If the engine stalls while the system
is in operation, pressing the clutch
pedal right down will start it again.

– the brake pedal is pressed again, with position P engaged or position
N engaged with the handbrake ap-
plied, or
– position R is engaged or,
– the accelerator pedal is depressed or,
– in manual mode, the gear lever is moved towards + or -.
For manual gearboxes:
– the gearbox is in neutral and the clutch pedal is slightly depressed, or
– the engine is in gear and the clutch pedal is pressed right down.
To fill up with fuel, the engine must
be stopped (and not on standby):
always stop the engine (please see
“Starting, stopping the engine”).
STOP AND START FUNCTION (2/4)

2.12
SPECIAL FEATURES OF PETROL VERSIONS
The following operating conditions:
– driving for long periods when the low fuel level warning light is lit;
– using leaded petrol;
– using fuel or lubrication additives which are not approved.
Or operating faults such as:
– faulty ignition system, running out of fuel or disconnected spark plugs re-
sulting in the engine misfiring or cut-
ting out when driving;
– loss of power,
as they may cause the catalytic con-
verter to overheat and thus reduce its
efficiency, or damage it irreparably
and cause heat damage to the vehi-
cle. If you notice any of the above operating
faults, have the necessary repairs car-
ried out as soon as possible by an ap-
proved Dealer.
These faults may be avoided by regu-
larly taking your vehicle to an approved
Dealer at the intervals specified in the
Maintenance document.
Starting problems
To avoid damaging the catalytic con-
verter,
do not keep trying to start the
engine (using the start button, or by
pushing or towing the vehicle) without
having identified and corrected the
starting fault.
If the fault cannot be identified, do not
keep trying to start the engine, but con-
tact an approved Dealer.
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible sub-
stances or materials such as
grass or leaves can come into con-
tact with the hot exhaust system.

2.14
Gear lever
Vehicles with manual gearbox: refer
to the grid on the gear lever knob 1.
Vehicles with an automatic gear-
box: refer to the information on the
“Automatic gearbox” in Section 2.
GEAR LEVER
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.
Selecting reverse gear
The ring 2 has to be lifted up to the gear
lever knob to select reverse gear.
The reversing lights will come on as
soon as reverse gear is selected with
the ignition on.
Note: depending on the vehicle, if the
dipped beam headlights are on, the
front fog lights come on simultaneously
when reverse gear is selected.
