c) Mileage before service or oil change.Mileage before service
With the ignition switched on and the engine not running ,
and the selected display is “Mileage before service”, press
button OK for about 5 seconds to display the mileage before
the next service, then press button 2 to view the mileage before
the next oil change (distance or time remaining before the next
service). When the range approaches its limit, there are several
possible scenarios:
– distance/time remaining less than 900 miles (1,500 km) or
one month : the message “Service due in” is displayed, ac-
companied by the nearest term (distance or time);
– range equal to 0 km/miles or service date reached: the
message “Service required” is displayed accompanied by
warning light
©.
The vehicle requires an oil change as soon as possible.
Service Intervals
Oil change in
30 000 Kms / 24 mo
Service due in
300 Kms / 24 days
Service required
Depending on the vehicle, the mileage before an oil change varies accord\
ing to the driving style (frequent driving at low speed ,
door-to-door journeys, extensive use at idling speed, towing a trailer, etc.). The distance remaining until the next oil change can
therefore decrease more quickly in some cases than the actual distance t\
ravelled.
Resetting: to reset the mileage before a service, press and hold button 2 for approximately 10 seconds until the display shows
the range permanently.
NB: if a service is performed without changing the engine oil, only the mi\
leage before the next service should be reset. In the
event of an oil change, both the distance before the next service and th\
e next oil change should be reset.

ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE (2/3)Special cases
To park on a slope or while towing a
trailer, for example, pull switch 1 for
a few seconds to gain the maximum
braking.
To park the vehicle without applying the
electronic parking brake (if there is a
risk of freezing, for example):
– with the engine running, while si- multaneously depressing the brake
pedal and the switch 1, stop the
engine (not standby for vehicles
fitted with Stop and Start);
– with a gear or position P engaged,
release the brake pedal and the
switch 1.
For vehicles fitted with a Stop and Start
function, with the engine on standby,
the electronic parking brake is automat-
ically activated if the driver unfastens
their seat belt and opens the driver’s
door or gets out of their seat.
Brief stop
To manually activate the electronic
parking brake, (when stopping at a red
light, or stopping when the engine is
running, etc.): pull and release switch 1.
The brake is released as soon as the
vehicle is started up again.
Manual operationYou can control the electronic parking
brake manually.
Applying the electronic parking
brake
Pull switch 1. Warning light 2 and warn-
ing light
} on the instrument panel
light up.
Releasing the electronic parking
brake
With the ignition on, depress the brake
pedal then press switch 1: warning
light 2 and warning light
} go out.
Special feature relating to
the Stop and Start function:
in the event of unfastening
the driver’s seat belt before
the engine goes to standby using
the Stop and Start function, make
sure the parking brake is engaged:
warning light
} will come on
the instrument panel to confirm this.
Risk of loss of immobilisation.

DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (5/5)
Advice on use
– Favour the ECO mode.
– Electricity is fuel; switch off all the electrical components which are
not really needed. However (safety
first), keep your lights on when the
visibility is bad (“see and be seen”).
– Use the air vents. Driving with the windows open at 60 mph (100 km/h)
will increase fuel consumption by
4%.
– Never fill the fuel tank right to the brim to avoid overflow.
– In vehicles fitted with air condi-
tioning, it is normal to observe an
increase in fuel consumption (espe-
cially in urban conditions) when it is
used. For vehicles fitted with manual
air conditioning, switch off the system
when it is not required.
Recommendations for reducing
consumption and therefore help-
ing to preserve the environment:
If the vehicle has been parked in the
sun, open the doors for a few mo-
ments to let the hot air escape before
starting the engine.
– Do not leave an empty roof rack fitted to the vehicle.
– It is better to fit a trailer for bulky ob- jects.
– When towing a caravan, fit a wind deflector and adjust it carefully.
– Avoid using the car for door-to-door calls (short journeys with long waits
in between) because the engine
never reaches its normal operating
temperature.
Tyres
– An underinflated tyre increases fuel consumption.
– Opt for the highest speed pressure or the pressure recommended to op-
timise fuel consumption indicated
on edge of the driver’s door (please
refer to the information on “Tyre infla-
tion pressure” in Section 4).
– The use of non-recommended tyres can increase fuel consumption.

2.39
Mode selector
Depending on the road conditions, turn-
ing the selector 1 enables the following
modes to be selected:
– AUTO ;
– 2WD ;
– 4WD Lock.
“AUTO" mode
To activate this mode, turn selector 1 to
the “AUTO” position.
Operating principle
“AUTO” mode automatically distributes
the engine torque between the front and
rear axles according to the road condi-
tions and the vehicle speed. This po-
sition optimises roadholding. Use this
mode on any type of road (dry, snow-
covered, slippery, etc.) or when towing
(trailer or caravan).
The warning light
\f on the instru-
ment panel will come on.
TRANSMISSION: 4-wheel drive (4WD) (1/4)
“2WD" mode
To activate this mode, turn the selec-
tor 1 to the “2WD” position. The warn-
ing light
‘ on the instrument panel
will come on.
Operating principle
The “2WD” mode uses the front wheels
only. Use this mode on dry roads with
good grip.
To deactivate this mode, turn the selec-
tor 1 to the “AUTO” position. Warning
light
‘ goes out on the instrument
panel.
Remember that driving a vehicle off-
road is very different to driving it on
the road.
To make the most of your vehicle
in an off-road situation, we recom-
mend that you are trained to drive a
4x4 (4WD) vehicle.
The safety of both you and your
passengers is your responsibility,
and depends on your skill and the
care you take when driving off-road.

ASSISTED PARKING (4/4)
This function is an additional driving aid. However, 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.
Make sure that the manoeuvre complies with the applicable traffic regulations at your location.
– The driver should always look out for sudden hazards during driving: alw\
ays ensure that there are no moving obstacles (such as a child, animal, pram, bicycle, etc.) or small, narrow object\
s such as stones or posts in your path when manoeu-
vring.
– The system cannot detect objects located in the sensor blind spots.
– When manoeuvring, the steering wheel may turn quickly: do not put your h\
ands inside, and make sure that nothing is caught inside.
– Always visually check that the parking space proposed by the system is s\
till available and contains no obstacles.
– The system should be deactivated when towing a trailer.

4.12
TYRE PRESSURES (2/2)
Special note concerning fully laden
vehicles (Maximum Permissible All-Up
Weight) and towing a trailer: the maxi-
mum speed must be limited to 60 mph
(100 kph) and the tyre pressure in-
creased by 0.2 bar.
Please refer to the information on
“Weights” in Section 6.
Tyre safety and use of snow chains:
Refer to the information on “Tyres” in
Section 5 for the servicing conditions
and, depending on the version, the use
of chains. For your safety, please re-
spect the speed limit.
When they need to be re-
placed, only tyres of the
same make, size, type and profile
should be used on a single axle.
They must: either have a load ca-
pacity and speed rating at least
equal to those of the original
tyres, or conform to those recom-
mended by an authorised dealer.
Failure to heed these instructions
could endanger your safety and
affect your vehicle’s roadworthi-
ness.
Risk of loss of control of the ve-
hicle.

5.32
TOWING: breakdown recovery (1/2)
Before towing, put the gearbox in neu-
tral, unlock the steering column and re-
lease the parking brake.
For vehicles fitted with an automa-
tic gearbox, if it is not possible to put
the gear lever into position N, please
consult an authorised dealer.
Steering column unlocking
Insert the key into the ignition or, de-
pending on the vehicle, having the
RENAULT card on you, press the
engine start button for approximately
2 seconds.
Reposition the lever to neutral (posi-
tion N for vehicles fitted with an auto-
matic gearbox).
The steering column unlocks, the ac-
cessory functions are powered: you
can use the vehicle’s lights (direction
indicators, brake lights, etc.). At night
the vehicle must have its lights on.
Depending on the vehicle, once you
have finished towing, press the engine
start button twice (risk of running down
the battery). The speed specified by current legisla-
tion for towing must always be obser-
ved. If your vehicle is the towing vehi-
cle, do not exceed the maximum towing
weight for your vehicle (refer to the in-
formation on “Weights” in Section 6).
Towing a vehicle with an
automatic gearbox
Transport the vehicle on a trailer or tow
it with the front wheels off the ground.
In exceptional circumstances
, you
may tow it with all four wheels on the
ground, only in a forward gear, with the
gear in neutral position N over a maxi-
mum distance of 50 miles and not ex-
ceeding a speed of 15 mph (25 km/h).

WEIGHTS (in kg)
The weights indicated for a basic vehicle without options: they vary dep\
ending on the your vehicle’s equipment. Consult
your approved Dealer.Maximum permissible all-up weight (MMAC)
Maximum permissible all-up weight (MMTA)
Gross Train Weight (MTR) Weights are indicated on the vehicle identification plate (refer to
the information on “Vehicle identification plates” in Section 6)
Braked Trailer Weight* found by calculating: MTR - MMAC
Unbraked Trailer Weight* 690
Permissible nose weight* 75
Maximum permissible load on roof 75 kg (including carrying device)
* Towing weight (towing a caravan, boat, etc.)
Towing is prohibited when the MTR - MMAC calculation is equal to zero, or\
when the MTR is equal to zero (or is not listed) on
the identification plate.
– It is important to comply with the towing weights, governed by local leg\
islation in each country and, in particular, laid down in the Road Traffic Regulations. Contact an approved Dealer about any towing equipment.
– When towing, under no circumstances may the total train weight (vehicle + trailer) be exceeded . However the following is
permitted:
– rear axle MMTA exceeded by no more than 15%,
– maximum MMAC exceeded by no more than 10% or 100 kg (whichever is reach\
ed first).
In either case, the maximum speed of the vehicle and trailer must not ex\
ceed 60 mph (100 km/h) and the tyre pressures must be increased by 0.2 bar (3 PSI).
– The engine output and climbing capability are reduced with altitude. We recommend that the maximum load be reduced by 10% at an altitude of 1,000 metres and by an additional 10% for each 1,0\
00 metres thereafter.
