OPERATING TIPS (models with
automatic air conditioner)
When the engine coolant temperature and outside
air temperature are low, the air flow from the foot
outlets may not operate. However, this is not amal-
function. After the coolant temperature warms up,
the air flow from the foot outlets will operate nor-
mally. The sensors
jAa ndjB, located on the instrument
panel, help maintain aconstant temperature. Do not
put anything on or around the sensors. SAA2324Z

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (AT)
The ignition lock is designed so that the ignition
switch cannot be switched to the “LOCK” position
until the shift lever is moved to the P(Park) position.
When pushing the ignition switch to the “OFF” posi-
tion, make sure the shift lever is in the P(Park) posi-
tion.
When the ignition switch cannot be switched to the
“LOCK” position:
1. [Shift to Park] warning appears on the vehicle
information display and achime sounds.
2. Move the shift lever to the P(Park) position.
3. If the ignition switch is in the “ACC” position, [PUSH] warning appears on the vehicle informa-
tion display.
4. Push the ignition switch. The ignition switch is switched to the “OFF” position. 5. Open the door. The ignition switch turns to the
“LOCK” position.
For warnings and indicators on the vehicle informa-
tion display, see “Indicators for operation” in the
“2. Instruments and controls” section.
If the ignition switch is switched to the “LOCK”
position, the shift lever cannot be moved from the P
(Park) position. The shift lever can be moved if the
ignition switch is in the “ON” position with the foot-
brake pedal depressed.
STEERING LOCK
The ignition switch is equipped with an anti-theft
steering lock device.
To lock steering wheel
1. Place the ignition switch in the “OFF” position where the ignition switch position indicator will
not illuminate.

IGNITION SWITCH POSITIONS WARNING
Never place the ignition switch in the “OFF” posi-
tion while driving. The steering wheel may lock
and cause the driver to lose control of the ve-
hicle, resulting in serious vehicle damage or per-
sonal injury.
CAUTION
• Do not leave the vehicle for extended periods
of time when the ignition switch is in the “ON”
position and the engine is not running. This
can discharge the battery.
• Use electrical accessories with the engine
running to avoid discharging the vehicle bat-
tery. If you must use accessories while the
engine is not running, do not use them for
extended periods of time and do not use mul-
tiple electrical accessories at the same time.

•
When driving on extremely inclined surfaces
such as higher banked corners, the ESP sys-
tem may not operate properly and the ESP
warning light may illuminate. Do not drive
on these types of roads.
• When driving on an unstable surface such as
at urntable, ferry, elevator or ramp, the ESP
warning light may illuminate. This is not a
malfunction. Restart the engine after driving
onto astable surface.
• If wheels or tyres other than the RENAULT
recommended ones are used, the ESP sys-
tem may not operate properly and the ESP
warning light may illuminate.
• The ESP system is not
asubstitute for winter
tyres or tyre chains on asnow covered road.
The Electronic Stability Programme (ESP) system
uses various sensors to monitor driver inputs and
vehicle motion. Under certain driving conditions, the
ESP system performs the following functions:
• Controls brake pressure to reduce wheel slip on
one slipping drive wheel so power is transferred
to
an on slipping drive wheel on the same axle.
• Controls brake pressure and engine output to
reduce drive wheel slip based on vehicle speed
(traction control function). •
Controls brake pressure at individual wheels and
engine output to help the driver maintain control
of the vehicle in the following conditions:
–u
ndersteer (vehicle tends to not follow the
steered path despite increased steering in-
put)
–o versteer (vehicle tends to spin due to cer-
tain road or driving conditions).
The ESP system can help the driver to maintain con-
trol of the vehicle, but it cannot prevent loss of ve-
hicle control in all driving situations.
When the ESP system operates, the ESP warning
light in the instrument panel flashes so note the
following:
• The road may be slippery or the system may
determine some action is required to help the
vehicle on the steered path.
• You may feel
apulsation in the brake pedal and
hear anoise or vibration from under the bonnet.
This is normal and indicates that the ESP system
is working properly.
• Adjust your speed and driving to the road condi-
tions.
If am alfunction occurs in the system, the ESP warn-
ing light illuminates in the instrument panel. The
ESP system automatically turns off.
The ESP OFF switch is used to turn off the ESP
system. The ESP off indicator light illuminates
to indicate the ESP system is off. When the ESP
OFF switch is used to turn off the system, the ESP system still operates to prevent one drive wheel from
slipping by transferring power to
anon slipping drive
wheel. The ESP warning light flashes if this
occurs. All other ESP functions are off and the ESP
warning light will not flash. The ESP system is
automatically reset to on when the ignition switch is
placed in the OFFposition then back to the ONposi-
tion.
When the <4LO> position is selected with the Four-
Wheel Drive (4WD) mode switch, the ESP system
is disabled and the ESP OFF indicator light illumi-
nates.
See “Warning lights, indicator lights and audible
reminders” in the “2. Instruments and controls” sec-
tion and “Four-Wheel Drive (4WD) (where fitted)”
earlier in this section.
The computer has abuilt-in diagnostic feature that
tests the system each time you start the engine and
move the vehicle forward or in reverse at aslow
speed. When the self-test occurs, you may hear a
“clunk” noise and/or feel apulsation in the brake
pedal. This is normal and is not an indication of a
malfunction.

When the corner of the vehicle moves closer to an
object, the corner sensor indicators ➀appears.
When the centre of the vehicle moves close to an
object, the centre sensor indicator ➁appears.
When the object is detected, the indicator (green)
appears and the tone sounds intermittently. When
the vehicle moves closer to the object, the colour of
the indicator turns yellow. When the vehicle is very
close to the object, the indicator turns red, and the
tone sounds continuously. PARKING SENSOR (SONAR)
SYSTEM OFF SWITCH
The parking sensor (sonar) system OFF switch on
the instrument panel allows the driver to turn the
parking sensor (sonar) system ON or OFF. To turn
the parking sensor (sonar) system ON or OFF, the
ignition switch must be in the
ONposition.
The indicator light on the switch will illuminate when
the system is turned ON.
If the indicator light flashes when the parking sensor
(sonar) system is not turned off, it may indicate a
malfunction in the parking sensor (sonar) system.
The parking sensor (sonar) system will be turned
ON automatically under the following conditions:
• When the ignition switch is switched from the
OFF position to the ONposition.
• When the shift lever is shifted into the
R(Re-
verse) position. •
When the vehicle speed reaches at least 10 km/h
(6 MPH) and decreases.
The automatic system enabling function can be
turned ON or OFF with the [Sensor] key in the
[Parking Aids] menu. See “Vehicle information
display” in the “2. Instruments and controls” sec-
tion.

While driving on
aslippery surface, be careful when
braking, accelerating or downshifting. Abrupt brak-
ing or acceleration could cause the wheels to skid
and result in an accident.
Wet brakes
When the vehicle is washed or driven through wa-
ter, the brakes may get wet. As aresult, your brak-
ing distance will be longer and the vehicle may pull
to one side during braking.
To dry the brakes, drive the vehicle at asafe speed
while lightly depressing the footbrake pedal to heat
up the brakes. Do this until the brakes return to nor-
mal. Avoid driving the vehicle at high speeds until
the brakes function correctly.
Parking brake running-in
Break in the parking brake shoes whenever the
stopping effect of the parking brake is weakened or
whenever the parking brake shoes and/or drums/
rotors are replaced, in order to assure the best brak-
ing performance.
This procedure is described in the vehicle service
manual and can be performed by an approved dealer
or qualified workshop.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS) WARNING
The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) is
asophis-
ticated device, but it cannot prevent accidents
resulting from careless or dangerous driving
techniques. It can help maintain vehicle control during braking on slippery surfaces. Remember
that stopping distances on slippery surfaces will
be longer than on normal surfaces even with ABS.
Stopping distances may also be longer on rough,
gravel or snow covered roads, or if you are using
tyre chains. Always maintain
asafe distance from
the vehicle in front of you. Ultimately, the driver
is responsible for safety.
Tyre type and condition may also affect braking
effectiveness.
• When replacing tyres, install the specified size
of tyres on all four wheels.
• When installing
aspare tyre, make sure that it
is the proper size and type as specified on the
tyre placard. (See “Vehicle identification” in
the “9. Technical information” section.)
• For detailed information, see “Tyres and
wheels” in the “9. Technical information” sec-
tion.
The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) controls the
brakes so the wheels do not lock during hard brak-
ing or when braking on slippery surfaces. The sys-
tem detects the rotation speed at each wheel and
varies the brake fluid pressure to prevent each wheel
from locking and sliding. By preventing each wheel
from locking, the system helps the driver maintain
steering control and helps to minimise swerving and
spinning on slippery surfaces. Using system
Depress the brake pedal and hold it down. Depress
the brake pedal with firm steady pressure, but do
not pump the brakes. The ABS will operate to pre-
vent the wheels from locking up. Steer the vehicle to
avoid obstacles. WARNING
Do not pump the brake pedal. Doing so may re-
sult in increased stopping distances.
Self-test feature
The ABS includes electronic sensors, electric
pumps, hydraulic solenoids and acomputer. The
computer has abuilt-in diagnostic feature that tests
the system each time you start the engine and move
the vehicle at alow speed in forward or reverse.
When the self-test occurs, you may hear a“clunk”
noise and/or feel apulsation in the brake pedal. This
is normal and does not indicate amalfunction. If the
computer senses amalfunction, it switches the ABS
off and illuminates the ABS warning light on the
instrument panel. The brake system then operates
normally, but without anti-lock assistance. If the ABS
warning light illuminates during the self-test or while
driving, have the vehicle checked by an approved
dealer or qualified workshop.
Normal operation
The ABS operates at speeds above 5to10km/h (3
to 6M PH). The speed varies according to road con-
ditions.
