When driving in fog or snow, or
when transporting objects which are
higher than the roof, the headlights
do not come on automatically.
Switching on the fog lights remains

(indicator light not on).

filling with fuel
Insert the nozzle to open the valve A
and insert fully before turning it on to
fill the fuel tank (risk of splashing).
Keep the nozzle in this position through -
out the entire filling operation.
When the pump cuts out automatically
at the end of the filling procedure, a
maximum of two further filling attempts
may be made, as there must be suffi -
cient space in the fuel tank to allow for
expansion.
Make sure that no water enters the fuel
tank during filling. The valve A and its
surround must remain clean.
petrol versions
Using leaded petrol will damage the
antipollution system and may lead to a
loss of warranty.
To ensure that the fuel tank is not filled
with leaded petrol, the fuel tank filler
neck contains a restrictor fitted with a
foolproof system which only allows
the nozzle for unleaded petrol to be
used (at the pump).
No modifications what -
soever are permitted on
any part of the fuel supply
system (computers, wiring,
fuel circuit, injector, protection
covers, etc.) as this may be danger-
ous (such work must be undertaken
by qualified Network personnel).
fUEL TANK (2/2)
Running out of fuel on diesel
versions
After a breakdown caused by com-
pletely running out of fuel, the system
must be reprimed before the engine is
restarted: Use bulb 1.
The engine can now be restarted.
If the engine does not start after several
attempts, contact an approved Dealer.
1persistent smell of
fuel
If you notice a persistent
smell of fuel you should:
– stop the vehicle as soon as traf-
fic conditions allow and switch off
the ignition;
– switch on the hazard warning
lights and ask your passengers
to leave the vehicle and to keep
away from traffic;
– contact an approved Dealer.

ADVICE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (3/3)
Advice on use
– 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%.
– 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.
– The use of non-recommended tyres
can increase fuel consumption.

In vehicles fitted with air condi -
tioning, it is normal to observe an
increase in fuel consumption (es -
pecially in urban conditions) when
it is used. For vehicles fitted with
manual air conditioning, switch off
the system when it is not required.
Advice for reducing consumption
and therefore helping 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.
– Never fill the fuel tank right to the
brim to avoid overflow.
– 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.

tion on or off, until one of the front doors
is opened (limited to about 3 minutes).
From the driver’s seat, use switch:
1 for the driver’s side;
2 for the front passenger side;
3 and 5 for the rear passenger win-
dows.
From the passenger seats, use

when closing (e.g.: fingers, branch of
a tree, etc.) it stops and then lowers
again by a few centimetres.

Electric windows
Press or pull the switch to raise or lower
a window to the desired height (the rear
windows do not open fully);
one-touch mode

dows.
Briefly press or pull the window switch
fully: the window is fully lowered or
raised. Pressing the switch again stops

Safety of rear occupants
The driver can disable op -
eration of the electric win -
dows and, depending on
the vehicle, the rear doors, by
pressing switch 4 . The indicator
light integrated in the switch lights
up to confirm that the locks have
been activated.
Driver’s responsibility
Never leave your vehicle with the
RENAULT card inside and never
leave a child (or a pet) unsuper -
vised, even for a short while. They
may pose a risk to themselves or to
others by starting the engine, acti -
vating equipment such as the elec-
tric windows or by locking the doors.
If any part of the body becomes
trapped, reverse the direction of the
window immediately by pressing the
relevant switch.
Risk of serious injury.
Avoid resting any objects against
a half-open window: there is a risk
that the electric window could be
damaged.

Sunroof
– open the sun blind
– To open slightly: turn button 9 to
position A;
– To open fully: turn button 9 to po -
sition B , C or D , depending on the
opening position required;
– To close: turn button 9 to position 0.
Sun blind

Special noteYour vehicle is equipped with an antip-
inch facility: when the sunroof encoun -
ters resistance whilst closing, (some -
body’s fingers, etc.) it stops and then
moves back several centimetres.
Driver’s responsibility
Never leave your vehicle
with the RENAULT card
inside and never leave a
child (or a pet) unsupervised, even
for a short while.
The reason for this is that the child
may endanger himself or others by

ment such as the window winders
for example, or locking the doors.

the direction of travel as soon as
possible by turning button 9 fully to

Precautions during use
– check that the sunroof is properly
closed before leaving your vehicle;
– clean the seal every three months
using products recommended by our
Technical Department;
– do not open the sunroof immedi -
ately after the vehicle has been in
the rain or after your car has been
washed.
– Vehicle with roof bars
As a general rule, if there is a load
on the roof, use of the sunroof is not
recommended.
Before using the sunroof, check the
objects and/or accessories (bike
racks, roof boxes, etc.) attached to
the roof bars: they should be prop -
erly arranged and secured and
should not interfere with the opera -
tion of the sunroof.
Contact your approved Dealer for
details of possible conversions.
operating faults
Electric windows
In case of a fault when closing a window,
the system reverts to normal mode:
pull the switch concerned up as often
as necessary to fully close the window
(the window will close gradually), hold
the switch (still on the closure side) for
three seconds then lower and raise the
window fully to reinitialise the system.
If necessary, contact your approved
Dealer.
Electric sunroof
If the roof does not close, turn button 9
to the position 0 and then press button 8
until the roof is fully closed: consult an
approved Dealer.
Remote control window
closing
(for vehicles with one-touch windows
on all windows).
When you lock the doors from the out-
side, press the locking button on the
RENA ulT card twice in quick suc -
cession, or on the driver's door in
hands-free mode, and all the windows
will close automatically.
It is recommended that the user only
operates the system when the vehi -
cle can be seen clearly and no one is
inside.
Note: locking the doors using the
RENAULT card deactivates hands-free
mode.
Closing windows can cause
serious injury.
If the vehicle is equipped
with this function, this action
will activate deadlocking.
Check that there is no-one
still inside the vehicle
Important: during this operation,
the sunroof anti-pinch facility is de-
activated. Contact your approved
dealer as soon as possible.
