\bhen the ignition switch is in the “ON” position, the
electric power steering warning light illuminates. After
starting the engine, the electric power steering warning
light turns off. This indicates the electric power
steering system is operational.
If the electric power steering warning light illuminates
while the engine is running, it may indicate the electric
power steering system is not functioning properly and
may need servicing. Have the electric power steering
system checked by a RENAULT dealer.
\bhen the electric power steering warning light
illuminates with the engine running, the power assist
to the steering will cease operation but you will still
have control of the vehicle. At this time, greater
steering efforts are re\fuired to operate the steering
wheel, especially in sharp turns and at low speeds.
(See “Electric power steering system” (P.5-35) .)

Stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible. Stop the
engine immediately and call a RENAULT dealer.
CAUTION:
.Running the engine with the engine oil
pressure warning light illuminated could
cause serious damage to the engine.
. The engine oil pressure warning light is not
designed to indicate a low oil level. The oil
level should be checked using the dipstick.
(See “Engine oil” (P.8-10) .)
High temperature warning light (red)

operation may seriously damage the engine.
(See “If your vehicle overheats” (P.6-10) for the
immediate action required.)
Intelligent Key system warning light (if
e\fuipped)
After the ignition switch is placed in the “ON” position,
this light comes on for about 2 seconds and then turns

This light illuminates or blinks as follows:
. The light blinks in yellow when the door is closed
with the Intelligent Key left outside the vehicle and
the ignition switch in the “ACC” or “ON” position.
Make sure that the Intelligent Key is inside the
vehicle (for model without vehicle information
display) .
. The light blinks in green when the Intelligent Key
battery is running out of power. Replace the
battery with a new one (for model without vehicle
information display) . See “Battery” (P.8-23) .
. The light illuminates in yellow when it warns of a
malfunction with the electrical steering lock
system or the Intelligent Key system.
If the warning light illuminates in yellow while the
engine is stopped, it may be impossible to free the
steering lock or to start the engine. If the light comes
on while the engine is running, you can drive the
vehicle. However in these cases, contact a RENAULT
dealer for repair as soon as possible.

If this in\bicat\fr appears, replace the battery with a new
\fne. (See “Battery” (P.8-23) .)
7. Engine start \fperati\fn in\bicat\fr (Manual
Transmissi\fn m\f\bels)
This in\bicat\fr means that the engine will start by
pushing the igniti\fn switch with the clutch pe\bal
\bepresse\b.
8. Cruise c\fntr\fl in\bicat\fr (f\fr Eur\fpe)
The cruise main switch in\bicat\fr (CRUISE) is \bis-
playe\b when the cruise c\fntr\fl main switch is pushe\b.
When the main switch is pushe\b again, the CRUISE
in\bicat\fr \bisappears. When the CRUISE in\bicat\fr is
\bisplaye\b, the cruise c\fntr\fl system is \fperati\fnal.
The cruise c\fntr\fl set in\bicat\fr (SET) is \bisplaye\b
while the vehicle spee\b is c\fntr\flle\b by the cruise
c\fntr\fl system. If the SET in\bicat\fr blinks while the
engine is running, it may in\bicate that the cruise c\fntr\fl
system is n\ft functi\fning pr\fperly. Have the system
checke\b by a RENAULT \bealer.
F\fr m\fre \betails, see “Cruise c\fntr\fl” (P.5-28) .
9. Spee\b limiter in\bicat\fr (f\fr Eur\fpe)
The spee\b limiter main switch in\bicat\fr (LIMIT) is
\bisplaye\b when the spee\b limiter main switch is
pushe\b. When the main switch is pushe\b again, the
LIMIT in\bicat\fr \bisappears.
The spee\b limiter set in\bicat\fr (SET) is \bisplaye\b while
the spee\b limiter is activate\b.
F\fr m\fre \betails, see “Spee\b limiter (if equippe\b f\fr Eur\fpe)” (P.5-26) .
10. Mechanical Key LOCK warning (if
equippe\b f\fr Eur\fpe)
The warning appears when the igniti\fn switch is left in
the “ACC” \fr “OFF” p\fsiti\fn instea\b \ff c\fmpletely
being turne\b t\f the “LOCK” p\fsiti\fn.
If this warning appears, turn the igniti\fn switch t\f the
“LOCK” p\fsiti\fn.
When the igniti\fn switch is in the “ON” p\fsiti\fn, a
buzzer will s\fun\b twice an\b the Mechanical Key LOCK
warning sh\fws when the igniti\fn switch is turne\b t\f
the “ACC” \fr “OFF” p\fsiti\fn. This is t\f warn the \briver
that the igniti\fn switch is n\ft in the “LOCK” p\fsiti\fn.
Make sure the select\fr lever is in the “P” (Park)
p\fsiti\fn (f\fr CVT m\f\bel) \fr the shift lever is in the “N”
(Neutral) p\fsiti\fn (f\fr MT m\f\bel) an\b then turn the
igniti\fn switch t\f the “LOCK” p\fsiti\fn.
CAUTION:
.
The steering wheel can only be locked when
the ignition switch is in the “LOCK” position
(if equipped) . Make sure the ignition switch
is in the “LOCK” position before leaving the
vehicle.
. The mechanical key can only be removed at
the “LOCK” position. Make sure the ignition
switch is in the “LOCK” position before
removing the mechanical key.

TRIP COMPUTER (for T\b\fe C)
JVI0006X
Switches for the tri\f com\futer are located on the left
or right side of the combination meter \fanel. To
o\ferate the tri\f com\futer, \fush the switches as shownabove.
*AENTER switch
*BNEXT switch
When the ignition switch is \fushed to the ON \fosition,
modes of the tri\f com\futer can be selected b\b
\fushing the
switch*A.
Each time the
switch*Ais \fushed, the dis\fla\b
will change as follows:
CO2 saved (if equi\f\fed) ?Current fuel consum\ftion
? Average fuel consum\ftion and s\feed ?Ela\fsed
time and tri\f odometer (if equi\f\fed) ?Distance to
em\ft\b ?Outside air tem\ferature ?Idling sto\f (if
equi\f\fed) ?Setting ?Warning check
CO2 saved (if equi\f\fed)
JVI0268X
The CO2 saved mode shows the estimated quantit\b of
CO2 exhaust emissions \frevented b\b the Sto\f/Start
S\bstem ever\b time the engine is automaticall\b sto\f\fed.
For more information, see “Sto\f/Start S\bstem (CO2
savings ) (if equi\f\fed for Euro\fe)” (P.2-28) .
Current fuel consum\ftion (km/l or l/100 km or
MPG)
JVI0007X
The current fuel consum\ftion mode shows the current
fuel consum\ftion.
Average fuel consum\ftion (km/l or l/100 km
or MPG) and s\feed (km/h or MPH)
JVI0008X
Fuel consumption:
The average fuel consum\ftion mode shows the
average fuel consum\ftion since the last reset. Reset-
ting is done b\b \fushing the
switch*Bfor longer
than 1 second. (The average s\feed is also reset at the
same time.)

The elapsed time mode shows the time sin\fe the last
reset. The displayed time \fan be reset by pushing the
swit\fh*Bfor longer than 1 se\fond. (The trip
odometer is also reset at the same time.)
Trip odometer (if equipped) :
The trip odometer mode shows the distan\fe that the

Distan\fe to empty (km or MILES)
JVI0010X
The distan\fe to empty (dte) mode provides you with an
estimation of the distan\fe that \fan be driven before
refueling. The dte is \fonstantly being \fal\fulated, based
on the amount of fuel in the fuel tank and the a\ftual fuel
\fonsumption.
The display is updated every 30 se\fonds.
The dte mode in\fludes a low range warning feature. If
the fuel level is low, the warning is displayed on the
s\freen.
When the fuel level drops even lower, the dte display
will \fhange to “——”.
. If the amount of fuel added is small, the
display just before the ignition switch is
pushed to the “OFF”position may continue
to be displayed.
. When driving uphill or rounding curves, the
fuel in the tank shifts, which may momenta-
rily change the display.
Outside air temperature (8C) (if equipped)
JVI0012X
The outside air temperature is displayed in 8C in the
range of í30 to 608C.
The outside air temperature mode in\fludes a low
temperature warning feature. If the outside air tem-
perature is 38 C or below, the warning “ICY” is
displayed on the s\freen.
The outside temperature sensor is lo\fated in front of
the radiator. The sensor may be affe\fted by road or
engine heat, wind dire\ftions and other driving \fondi-
tions. The display may differ from the a\ftual outside
temperature or the temperature displayed on various
signs or billboards.
