IGNITION SWITCH POSITIONS
SSD0859
When the ignition switch is pushe\f without \fepressing
the brake pe\fal (Automatic Transmission/Continu\tously
Variable Transmission mo\fel) or the clutch pe\fal
(Manual Transmission mo\fel) , the ignition switch
position will change as follows:
. Push once to change to “ACC\b.
. Push two times to change to “ON\b.
. Push three times to change to “OFF\b.
. Push four times to return to “ACC\b.
. Open or close any \foor to return to “LOCK\b when
in the “OFF\b position.
The in\ficator light
*Aon the ignition switch illumi-
nates when the ignition switch is in the “ACC\b or “ON\b
position.
LOCK position
The ignition switch an\f steering lock can only be
locke\f at this position.
The ignition switch will be unlocke\f when it is pushe\f
to the “ACC\b position while carrying the Intelligent Key.
ACC position
The electrical accessory power activates at this
position without the engine turne\f on.
ON position
The ignition system an\f the electrical accessory power
activate at this position without the engine turne\f on.
OFF position
The engine is turne\f off with the steering wheel
unlocke\f.
WARNING:
Never push the ignition switch to the “OFF\b
position while driving. The steering wheel may
lock and cause the driver to lose control of the
vehicle, resulting in serious vehicle damage or
personal injury.
CAUTION:
Do not leave the vehicle for extended periods of
time when the ignition switch is in the “ACC” or
“ON” position and the engine is not running.
This can discharge the battery.
NOTE:
When the ignition switch is pushed while the
Idling Stop System (if equipped) is activated, the
ignition switch will be placed in the "OFF" position.
INTELLIGENT KEY BATTERY DISCHARGE
SSD0860
If the battery of the Intelligent Key is \fischarge\f, or
environmental con\fitions interfere with the Intelligent
Key operation, start the engine accor\fing to the
following proce\fure:
1.
Automatic Transmission (AT)/Continuously
Variable Transmission (CVT) model:
Move the selector lever to the “P\b (Park) or “N\b
(Neutral) position.
Manual Transmission (MT) model:
Move the shift lever to the “N\b (Neutral) position.
2. Firmly \fepress the brake pe\fal (Automatic Trans- mission/Continuousl\ty Variable Transmission mo\f-
el) or the clutch pe\fal (Manual Transmission
mo\fel) .
3. Touch the ignition switch with the Intelligent Key as illustrate\f. (A chime will soun\f.)
4. Push the ignition switch while \fepressing the brake pe\fal within 10 secon\fs after the chime
soun\fs. The engine will start.
After step 3 is performe\f, when the ignition switch is
pushe\f without \fepressing the brake pe\fal, the

NOTE:
.When the ignition switch is pushed to the
“ACC” or“ON” position or the engine is
started by the above procedures, the Intel-
ligent Key battery discharge indicator ap-
pears (on the Vehicle information display) or
the Intelligent Key system warning light may
blink in yellow (on the meter) even if the
Intelligent Key is inside the vehicle. This is
not a malfunction. To stop the warning light
from blinking, touch the ignition switch with
the Intelligent Key again.
. If the Intelligent Key battery discharge
indicator appears (on the Vehicle informa-
tion display) or the Intelligent Key system
warning light in the meter is blinking in
green, replace the battery as soon as
possible. (See “Battery”(P.8-23) .)GA\fOLI\bE E\bGI\bE

Otherwise, the starter could be damaged.
. If it becomes necessary to start the engine
with a booster battery and jumper cables, the instructions and cautions contained in
the “6. In case of emergency” section should
be carefully followed.
6. Allow the engine to idle for at least 30 seconds after starting the engine to warm-up. Drive at

DRIVING WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMIS-
SION (AT)
The Automat\fc Transm\fss\fon (AT) \fn your veh\fcle \fs
electron\fcally controlled to produce max\fmum power
and smooth operat\fon.
The recommended operat\fng procedures for th\fs
transm\fss\fon are shown on the follow\fng pages. Follow
these procedures for max\fmum veh\fcle performance
and dr\fv\fng enjoyment.
CAUTION:
.The cold engine idle speed is high, so use
caution when shifting the transmission into
a forward or reverse position before the
engine has warmed up.
. Avoid revving up the engine while the
vehicle is stopped. This could cause unex-
pected vehicle movement.
. Do not downshift abruptly on slippery roads.
This may cause a loss of control.
. Never shift to either the “P” (Park) or “R”
(Reverse) position while the vehicle is mov-
ing. This could cause serious damage to the
transmission.
. Start the engine in either the “P” (Park) or
“N” (Neutral) position. The engine will not
start in any other position. If it does, have
your vehicle checked by a RENAULT dealer.
. Shift into the “P” (Park) position and apply
the parking brake when at a standstill for
longer than a short waiting period.
. Keep the engine at idling speed while
shifting from the “N” (Neutral) position to
any driving position.

5. Place the ignition switch in the “ON” \fosition tounlock the steering wheel.
\bhe vehicle may be moved to the desired location.
Re\flace the removed shift lock release cover after the
o\feration.
For model with Intelligent Key system: If the battery is
discharged com\fletely, the steering wheel cannot be
unlocked. Do not move the vehicle with the steering
wheel locked.
If the selector lever cannot be moved out of the “P”
(Park) \fosition, have a RENAUL\b dealer check the
CV\b system as soon as \fossible.
WARNING:
If the selector lever cannot be moved from the
“P” (Park) position while the engine is running
and the brake pedal is depressed, the stop lights
may not work. Malfunctioning stop lights could
cause an accident injuring yourself and others.
High fluid tem\ferature \frotection mode
\bhis transmission has a high fluid tem\ferature \frotec-
tion mode. If the fluid tem\ferature becomes too high
(for exam\fle, when climbing stee\f grades in high
tem\ferature with heavy loads, such as when towing a
trailer) , engine \fower and, under some conditions,
vehicle s\feed will be decreased automatically to
reduce the chance of transmission damage. Vehicle
s\feed can be controlled with the accelerator \fedal,
but engine and vehicle s\feed may be limited.
Fail-safe
When the fail-safe o\feration occurs, the CV\b will not
be shifted to the selected driving \fosition.
If the vehicle is driven under extreme conditions,
such as excessive wheel spinning and subse-
quent hard braking, the fail-safe system may be
activated. This will occur even if all electrical
circuits are functioning properly. In this case,
place the ignition switch in the “OFF”position
and wait for 10 seconds. Then turn the ignition
switch back to the “ON”position. The vehicle
should return to its normal operating condition.
If it does not return to its normal operating
condition, have a RENAULT dealer check the
transmission and repair it if necessary.
WARNING:
When the fail-safe operation occurs, vehicle
speed may be gradually reduced. The reduced
speed may be lower than other traffic, which
could increase the chance of a collision. Be
especially careful when driving. If necessary, pull
to the side of the road at a safe place and allow
the transmission to return to normal operation,
or have it repaired if necessary.
DRIVING WI\bH MANUAL \bRANSMISSION
(M\b)
WARNING:
. Do not downshift abruptly on slippery roads.
This may cause a loss of vehicle control.
. Do not over-rev the engine when shifting to
a lower gear. This may cause a loss of
vehicle control or engine damage.
CAUTION:
.Do not rest your foot on the clutch pedal
while driving. This may damage the clutch
system.
. Fully depress the clutch pedal before shift-
ing to help prevent transmission damage.
. Stop the vehicle completely before shifting
into the “R” (Reverse) position.
. When the vehicle is stopped for a period of
time, for example waiting at stoplights, shift
to the “N” (Neutral) position and release the
clutch pedal with the foot brake pedal
depressed.
. Do not shift to the "N" (Neutral) position
while driving. Doing so may result in an
accident due to loss of engine braking.
