never leave a child (or a
pet) unsupervised, even for a short
while.
There is a risk that they could start
the engine or operate electrical
equipment (electric windows etc.)
and trap part of their body (neck,
arms, hands, etc.).
Risk of serious injury.
Never switch off the ignition before
the vehicle has stopped completely.
Once the engine has stopped, the
brake servo, power-assisted steer -
ing, etc., and the passive safety de-
vices such as the airbags and pre -
tensioners will no longer operate.

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 starting the vehicle, activating
equipment such as the windows, or
locking the doors.
Risk of serious injury.

Particularités des versions diesel avec filtre à particules (X85 \
- B85 - C85 - S85 - K85 - Renault)
ENG_NU_853-7_BCSK85_Renault_2
As a guide, this type of cleaning should
take up to 20 minutes.
If the
© warning light comes on,
accompanied by the message “Check
antipollution”, consult an approved
Dealer as soon as possible.
Diesel engine speed
Diesel engines are fitted with injection
equipment which prevents the engine
speed being exceeded irrespective of
the gear selected.
Special features of diesel versions fitted with a particle filter
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible sub -
stances or materials such
as grass or leaves can come into
contact with the hot exhaust system.
When driving, depending on the grade
of fuel used, it is possible that white
smoke may be emitted.
This is due to the exhaust particle filter
being cleaned automatically, and does
not affect the way the vehicle runs.
Depending on the vehicle, warning
light 1
Ü comes on to indicate a
filter saturation risk.
To clean the particle filter, for 60 miles
(100 km) after the message appears,
drive at an average speed of at least
24 mph (40 km/h), where suitable traf-
fic conditions and the speed limit will
allow, until the warning light goes out.
You may need to restart the operation if
the vehicle has to stop before the warn-
ing light goes out.

ADVICE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (2/3)
– Avoid sudden acceleration.
– Brake as little as possible. If you an-
ticipate an obstacle or bend in ad -
vance, you may then simply release
the accelerator pedal.
– Do not try to maintain the same
speed up a hill, accelerate no more
than you would on the level. Keep
your foot in the same position on the
accelerator pedal.
– Double declutching and accelerating
before switching off are unnecessary
in modern vehicles.
– Bad weather, flooded roads:
Do not drive through floods
if the water is above the
lower edge of the wheel
rims.
Driving– Drive carefully for the first few miles
until the engine reaches its normal
operating temperature, rather than
let it warm up while the vehicle is sta-
tionary.
– Speed is expensive.
– Sporty driving uses a lot of fuel: drive
with a light right foot.
– Do not overrev the engine in the in-
termediate gears.
Always use the highest gear possi -
ble without labouring the engine.
On versions with an automatic gear-
box, it is preferable to keep the gear
lever in position D.
Exhaust gas monitoring
system
The exhaust gas monitoring system will
detect any operating faults in the vehi-
cle’s antipollution system.
If this system malfunctions, toxic sub -
stances may be released into the at -
mosphere or damage may occur.
ÄThis warning light on the in -
strument panel will indicate if
there are any faults in the system:
This lights up when the ignition is
switched on and goes out when the
engine is started.
– If it lights up continuously, consult an
approved Dealer as soon as possi -
ble;
– if it flashes, reduce the engine speed
until the light stops flashing. Contact
your approved dealer as soon as
possible.
Obstructions to the driver
On the driver ’s side, only
use mats adapted to the ve-
hicle that attach to the pre-
installed parts, and regularly check
their mounting. Do not place several
mats on top of each other.
Risk of pedals jamming

Operation
With gear lever 1 in position P, start the
engine.
With your foot on the brake pedal (warn-
ing light 4 goes out), move the lever out
of position P.
Only engage D or R when the vehi -
cle is stopped, with your foot on the
brake and the accelerator pedal re -
leased.
You must apply the brake before
pressing unlocking button 2 to move
out of position P.

Driving in automatic mode
Move lever 1 to position D.
In most traffic conditions, you will not
have to touch the gear selector lever
again: the gears will change automati -
cally at the right time and at the most
suitable engine speed because the au-
tomatic system takes into account the
vehicle load and road contour and ad-
justs itself to the particular driving style
you have chosen.
Economical driving
When driving, always leave the lever
in position D, keeping the accelerator
pedal lightly depressed to ensure au -
tomatic gear changes at comparatively
low engine speeds.
Accelerating and overtaking
Depress the accelerator pedal firmly
and fully (so that it goes beyond the
kickdown point).
This will enable you to change down
to the optimum gear within the
engine range.

In this position:
– the air conditioning stops automati -
cally even if button F is activated (the
indicator light remains lit);
– the ventilation speed of air in the
passenger compartment is zero;
– there is, however, a slight flow of air
when the vehicle is moving.
This position should not normally be
used.

Turn control B to obtain the desired
temperature. The further the pointer is

be increased.
switching air conditioning on
or off
The air conditioning is switched on (in-
dicator light illuminated) or off (indicator
light extinguished) using button F.

– lowering the temperature inside the
passenger compartment;
– e l i m i n a t i n g c o n d e n s a t i o n m o r e

The automatic mode is the system’s
normal operating mode (AUTO light on)
but you may alter the selections made
by the system (air distribution, etc.).
These options are explained on the fol-
lowing pages.
aUtOMatiC CLiMate COntrOL (3/8)
this is the recommended mode
of use: the automatic heating and
air conditioning system guarantees
comfort (except in the event of ex -
treme conditions) in the passenger
compartment and good visibility
while optimising consumption.
r eturn to automatic mode as
soon as possible.
ambient temperature:
automatic mode (continued)
Operation
To reach and keep the chosen comfort
level and to maintain good visibility, the
system controls:
– ventilation speed;
– air distribution;
– air recirculation management;
– air conditioning start/stop;
– the air temperature.
The displayed temperature values
show a comfort level.
When starting the engine, increas -
ing or decreasing the value dis -
played will not allow the com -
fort level to be reached any more
quickly. The system will always op-
timise the temperature increase or
decrease (the ventilation system
does not start instantly at maximum
speed: it gradually increases). This
may take several minutes.
Generally speaking, unless there is
a particular reason not to, the dash-
board air vents should remain open.
