Battery
BAtteR y (1/2)
The engine may be hot
during operations in close
proximity. In addition, the
engine cooling fan may
start at any moment.
Risk of injury.
Depending on the vehicle, the battery is
in the engine compartment or in the lug-
gage compartment.
It is always maintenance-free.
Depending on the vehicle, a system
continuously checks the battery charge
status. If the level drops, the message
“ Battery low start engine ” is displayed
on the instrument panel. In this case,
start the engine. Then the message
“ Battery charging ” appears on the in -
strument panel.
The charge status of your battery can
decrease especially if you use your ve-
hicle:
– for short journeys;
– for driving in town;
– when the temperature drops;
– when the radio is used for extended
periods with the engine switched off
etc.
Handle the battery with care
as it contains sulphuric acid
which must not come into
contact with the eyes or
skin. If it does, wash the affected
area with plenty of cold water. If
necessary, consult a doctor.
Ensure that naked flames, red hot
objects and sparks do not come into
contact with the battery as there is a
risk of explosion.
The battery is a specific
type , please ensure it is
replaced with the same
type. Consult an approved
dealer.

Tools (Jack-Wheelbrace, etc.)
t OOLS
The tools for changing a wheel are lo-
cated in the luggage compartment
under the carpets. When storing the
tools, ensure the jack is correctly
clipped in, with base plate B towards
the bottom.
The tools included in the tool kit depend
on the vehicle.
Jack 1
Fold it and position retainer A correctly
before refitting it in its housing.
Lever 2
This tightens or releases the tow eye 3.
t ow eye 3
Please see “Towing: breakdown recov-
ery” in Section 5.
Hubcap tool 4
This tool is used to remove the wheel
trims.
Wheelbrace 5
Allows the wheel bolts to be locked/un-
locked.
Wheel locking nut
Storage compartments are provided in
the support to house these.
Do not leave the tools un -
secured inside the vehicle
as they may come loose
under braking. After use,
check that all the tools are correctly
clipped into the tool kit, then posi -
tion it correctly in its housing: risk of
injury.
If wheel bolts are supplied in the
tool kit, only use these bolts for the
emergency spare wheel: refer to the
label affixed to the emergency spare
wheel.
The jack is designed for wheel
changing purposes only. Under no
circumstances should it be used for
carrying out repairs underneath the
vehicle or to gain access to the un-
derside of the vehicle.
Nothing should be placed
on the floor area in front of
the driver as such objects
may slide under the pedal
during braking manoeuvres, thus
obstructing its use.

Fuses
In accordance with local legislation
or as a precautionary measure:
Obtain an emergency kit containing
a set of spare bulbs and fuses from
an approved Dealer.
Check the fuse in question
and replace it, if neces-
sary, by a fuse of the same
rating.
If a fuse is fitted where the rating is
too high, it may cause the electrical
circuit to overheat (risk of fire) in the
event of an item of equipment using
an excessive amount of current.
clip 3
Remove the fuse using tweezers 3, lo-
cated at the back of storage compart -
ment A.
To remove the fuse from the tweezers,
slide the fuse to the side.
It is not advisable to use the free fuse
locations.
Fuse box 2
If any electrical component does not
work, check the condition of the fuses.
Open storage compartment A . Press
tab 1 to move it then pull it towards you
to unclip it.
To identify the fuses, refer to the fuse
allocation label (shown on the following
page).

Before towing, unlock the steering
column: with the clutch depressed,
engage first gear (lever in position n
or r for vehicles with automatic trans -
missions), insert the RENAULT card in
the card reader then press the engine
start button for two seconds.
The column is unlocked, the acces -
sory functions are supplied: the vehi -
cle lights can be used (indicators, brake
lights etc.). At night the vehicle must
have its lights on.
Once you have finished towing, press
the engine start button twice (risk of
running down the battery).
The speed specified by current legis -
lation for towing must always be ob -
served. If your vehicle is the towing
vehicle, do not exceed the maximum
towing weight for your vehicle (refer
to the information on “Weights” in
Section 6).
Towing
tOWInG : breakdown
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.
u nder exceptional circumstances ,
you may tow the vehicle with all four
wheels on the ground, only going for -
ward, with the gear lever in the n posi-
tion, and for a distance not exceeding
30 miles (50 km).
– Use a rigid towing bar.
If a rope or cable is used
(where the law allows this),
the vehicle being towed
must be able to brake.
– A vehicle must not be towed if it is
not fit to be driven.
– Avoid accelerating or braking
suddenly when towing, as this
may result in damage being
caused to the vehicle.
– When towing a vehicle, it is ad -
visable not to exceed 15 mph
(25 km/h).

If the lever is stuck in P,
even though you are de -
pressing the brake pedal,
the lever can be released
manually. To do this, insert a rigid
rod in the hole 1, press the rod and
unlocking button located on the gear
lever knob simultaneously.

tOWInG : breakdown (continued)
Only use the front 2 and rear 4
towing points (never use the drive -
shafts or any other part of the vehicle).
These towing points may only be used
for towing: never use them for lifting the
vehicle directly or indirectly.Access to towing points
Unclip the cover to access towing
point 2 or 4 using the key integrated in
the RENAULT card.
To refit it, insert the cover in its housing
and clip it in place.
W h e n t h e e n g i n e i s
stopped, steering and brak-
ing assistance are not op -
erational.
Fitting the towing hitch
t ighten towing hitch 3 fully: as much
as possible by hand at first, then finish
tightening it using the wheelbrace or,
depending on the vehicle, the lever.
Use only the towing eye 3 and the
wheelbrace located under the boot
carpet in the tool kit holder (please
refer to the information under “Tools” in
Section 5).
Do not leave the tools unse-
cured inside the vehicle as
they may come loose under
braking.
After use, check that all the tools
are correctly clipped into the tool kit,
then, depending on the vehicle, po-
sition it correctly in its housing.
Risk of injury.
