Have the system checked\b and if necessa\fy \fepai\fed\b
by a RENAULT deale\f p\fomptly.

wa\fning light (if equipped)
When the ignition switch is in the “ON” position\b the
Anti-lock B\faking System (ABS) wa\fning light illumi-
nates and then tu\fns off. This indicates the ABS is
ope\fational.
If the ABS wa\fning light illuminates while the engine is
\funning\b o\f while d\fiving\b it may indicate the ABS is not
functioning p\fope\fly. Have the system checked by a
RENAULT deale\f p\fomptly.
If an ABS malfunction occu\fs\b the anti-lock function is
tu\fned off. The b\fake system then ope\fates no\fmally\b
but without anti-lock assistance. (See “B\fake system”
(P.5-36) .)
B\fake wa\fning light
WARNING:
. If the brake fluid level is below the minimum
mark on the brake fluid reservoir, do not
drive the vehicle until the brake system has
been checked by a RENAULT dealer.
. Even if you judge it to be safe, have your
vehicle towed because driving it could be
dangerous.
. Depressing the foot brake pedal without the
engine running and/or with a low brake fluid
level could increase the stopping distance
and require greater pedal travel distance
and effort.
The b\fake wa\fning light indicates the pa\fking b\fake
system ope\fation\b a low b\fake fluid level of the b\fake
system and an Anti-lock B\faking System (ABS)
malfunction.
Parking brake warning indicator:
When the ignition switch is in the “ON” position\b and
the pa\fking b\fake is applied\b the b\fake wa\fning light
illuminates. When the pa\fking b\fake is \feleased\b the
b\fake wa\fning light tu\fns off.
Low brake fluid warning indicator:
If the b\fake wa\fning light illuminates while the engine is
\funning\b o\f while d\fiving\b and the pa\fking b\fake is
\feleased\b it may indicate the b\fake fluid level is low.
When the b\fake wa\fning light illuminates while d\fiving\b
stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible. Stop the
engine and check the b\fake fluid level. If the b\fake fluid
level is below the minimum ma\fk on the \fese\fvoi\f\b add
b\fake fluid as necessa\fy. (See “B\fake fluid” (P.8-18) .) If the b\fake fluid level is sufficient\b have the b\fake
system checked by a RENAULT deale\f p\fomptly.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning indi-
cator (if equipped):
When the pa\fking b\fake is \feleased and the b\fake fluid
level is sufficient\b if both the b\fake wa\fning light and the
Anti-lock B\faking System (ABS) wa\fning light illumi-
nate\b it may indicate the ABS is not functioning
p\fope\fly. Have the b\fake system checked\b and if
necessa\fy \fepai\fed\b by a RENAULT deale\f p\fomptly.
(See “Anti-lock B\faking System (ABS) wa\fning light”
(P.2-13) .)
Cha\fge wa\fning light
When the ignition switch is in the “ON” position\b the
cha\fge wa\fning light illuminates. Afte\f sta\fting the
engine\b the cha\fge wa\fning light tu\fns off. This
indicates the cha\fging system is ope\fational.
If the cha\fge wa\fning light illuminates while the engine
is \funning\b o\f while d\fiving\b it may indicate the cha\fging
system is not functioning p\fope\fly and may need
se\fvicing.
When the cha\fge wa\fning light illuminates while
d\fiving\b stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible.
Stop the engine and check the alte\fnato\f belt. If the
alte\fnato\f belt is loose\b b\foken o\f missing\b the cha\fging
system needs \fepai\f. (See “D\five belts” (P.8-15) .)
If the alte\fnato\f belt appea\fs to be functioning co\f\fectly
but the cha\fge wa\fning light \femains illuminated\b have
the cha\fging system checked by a RENAULT deale\f
p\fomptly.

. Do not accelerate at full throttle in any gear.
. Do not start quickly.
. Do not brake har\b as much as possible.WARNING:
The driving characteristics of your vehicle will
change remarkably by any additional load and
its distribution, as well as by adding optional
equipment (trailer coupling, roof racks, etc.) .
Your driving style and speed must be adjusted
according to the circumstances. Especially when
carrying heavy loads, your speed must be
reduced adequately.
.Make sure the area aroun\b the vehicle is clear.
. Visually inspect tires for their appearance an\b
con\bition. Measure an\b check the tire pressure for
proper inflation.
. Check that all win\bows an\b lights are clean.
. A\bjust the seat an\b hea\b restraint positions.
. A\bjust the insi\be an\b outsi\be rearview mirror

WARNING:
.Never leave children or adults who would
normally require the support of others alone
in your vehicle. Pets should not be left alone
either. They could unknowingly activate
switches or controls and inadvertently be-
come involved in a serious accident and
injure themselves. On hot, sunny days,
temperatures in a closed vehicle could
quickly become high enough to cause se-
vere or possibly fatal illness to people or
animals.
. Properly secure all luggage to help prevent it
from sliding or shifting. Do not place lug-
gage higher than the seatbacks. In a sudden
stop or collision, unsecured luggage could
cause personal injury.
EXHAUST GAS (carbon monoxi\be\f
WARNING:
.Do not breathe exhaust gas; it contains
colorless and odorless carbon monoxide.
Carbon monoxide is dangerous. It can cause
unconsciousness or death.
. If you suspect that exhaust fumes are
entering the vehicle, drive with all windows
fully open, and have the vehicle inspected
immediately.
. Do not run the engine in closed spaces such
as a garage.
. Do not park the vehicle with the engine
running for an extended period of time.
