Safety of rear occupants
The driver can authorise operation of the rear doors and, depending on
the vehicle, the rear electric windows by pressing switch 4 . The inte -
grated indicator on the switch confirms this.
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. If any part of the body becomes trapped,
reverse the direction of the window immediately by pressing the relevant\
switch.
Risk of serious injury.

Special note
If the window detects resistance when
closing (e.g. a person’s fingers, an ani-
mal’s paw, the branch of a tree, etc.) it
stops and then lowers again by a few
centimetres.
The system should only be used if the
driver can clearly see that nobody is
inside the vehicle.

verts to normal mode: press the switch
concerned as often as necessary to
close the window, then hold the switch

to reinitialise the system. If necessary,
contact an approved Dealer.

To prevent any risk of injury
or damage to the vehicle,
only crank the jack until the
wheel you are replacing is
a maximum of 3 centimetres off the
ground.
Position the jack horizontally, with the
jack head positioned at the same height
as support 2 provided in the lower sec-
tion of the bodywork, closest to the
wheel concerned.
Start cranking up jack 3 by hand to
align the base plate (which should be
pushed slightly under the vehicle).
Place a plank of wood under the base
plate if on soft ground.
Turn the wheelbrace to lift the wheel off
the ground.
If the vehicle is not equipped with a
jack or wheelbrace, you can obtain
these from your approved dealer.
