CRUISe CONtROL, SPeeD LIMIteR: cruise control function (5/8)
Instrument panel B
The cruise control function helps you to
maintain your driving speed at a speed
that you choose, called the cruising
speed.
This cruising speed may be set at any
speed above 20 mph (30 km/h).
Controls
1 Main “On/Off” switch.
2 Limit speed activation, storage and
increase switch (+).
3 Decrease cruising speed (-).
4 Switch the function to standby
(with memorisation of the gov -
erned cruising speed) (O).
5 Activation with recall of stored gov-
erned cruising speed (R).
This function is an addi -
tional driving aid. However,
the function does not take
the place of the driver.
Therefore, it can under no circum -
stances replace the driver’s respon-
sibility to respect speed limits and to
be vigilant (the driver must always
be ready to brake). Cruise control
must not be used in heavy traffic, on
undulating or slippery roads (black
ice, aquaplaning, gravel) and during
bad weather (fog, rain, side winds
etc.).
There is a risk of accidents.
The cruise control function
is in no way linked to the
braking system.

windscreen and the front side
window demisting vents.

Adjusting the ventilation
speed
Turn control 2 clockwise to increase the
air flow in the passenger compartment.
The passenger compartment is ven -
tilated by blown air. The blower deter -
mines how much air enters but vehicle
speed has a slight effect on this.
Switching the air
recirculation on
Press button 6: the integrated indicator
light comes on.
Under these conditions, air is taken
from the passenger compartment and
is recirculated, with no air being taken
from outside the vehicle.
Air recirculation is for:
– isolating the vehicle from the exter -
nal atmosphere (driving in polluted
areas, etc.);
– lowering the passenger compart -
ment temperature as quickly as pos-
sible. “oFF" position:
the system is deactivated: the ventila
-
tion speed for the passenger compart-
ment air is zero (vehicle stationary),
you can however still feel a slight flow
of air when the vehicle is moving.
Recommended demisting option:
Turn controls 1 , 2 and 4 to the
W
position.
This is the quickest option for de-icing
and demisting the side windows and
the windscreen.
MANuAl AIR coNDITIoNINg (2/2)
Prolonged use of air recirculation
can lead to condensation form -
ing on the side windows and wind -
screen, and discomfort due to the
use of non-renewed air in the pas -
senger compartment.
We therefore advise you to return to
normal mode (external air) as soon
as the air recirculation function is
no longer required, by pressing the
button 6 again.
The de-icing function cannot be used with the air recirculation mode, to avoid any risk of condensation forming on the wind -
screen, and automatically triggers the air conditioning and the integrat\
ed indicator light 3 to come on.

Varying the ventilation speed
In automatic mode, the system uses
the most suitable amount of air to reach
and maintain the desired comfort level.
You can still adjust the ventilation speed
by pressing buttons 12 to increase or
reduce the ventilation speed.
In this case, the ventilation speed,
which is no longer controlled automat-
ically, appears in zone A on the dis -
play 13.
Some buttons have an operating

ing status.

ture to the driver’s temperature.
Special note: the highest and lowest

maximum hot or cold temperature
levels (“LO” and “HI” on display 13).

Manual use
Pressing button 11 allows air recircula -
tion to be forced, in this case, the inte-
grated indicator comes on .
Prolonged use of this position may lead
to odours, caused by non-renewal of
air, and the formation of condensation
on the windows.
We therefore advise you to return to au-
tomatic mode as soon as the air recir-
culation function is no longer required,
by pressing button 11 again.Stopping the system
Press button 7 to switch off the system;
in this case “OFF” is shown on the dis-
play 13. To switch the system on, press
one of the 2, 3 or 4 switches.
Recycling
This function is controlled automati -
cally, but it can also be activated manu-
ally.
Note:
– during recirculation, air is taken from
the passenger compartment and
is recycled, with no air being taken
from outside the vehicle;
– air recirculation allows the external
atmosphere to be cut off (when driv-
ing in polluted areas, etc.);
– lowering the passenger compart -
ment temperature as quickly as pos-
sible.
AuT oMATIc clIMATE coNTRol (5/5)
The demisting/de-icing will still take
priority over the air recirculation.

Air conditioning: information and advice on use
AIR coNDITIoNINg: information and advice on use
Fuel consumption
You will normally notice an increase
in fuel consumption (especially
when driving in town) when the air
conditioning is operating.
For vehicles fitted with manual air
conditioning, switch off the system
when it is not required.
Advice for reducing
consumption and therefore
helping to preserve the
environment:
Drive with the air vents open and
the windows closed.
If the vehicle has been parked in
the sun, open the doors for a few
moments to let the hot air escape
before starting the engine.
Maintenance
Refer to the Maintenance Document
for your vehicle for the inspection
frequency.operating faults
As a general rule, contact your ap-
proved dealer in the event of an op-
erating fault.
– Reduction in de-icing, demist -
ing or air conditioning per -
formance. This may be caused
by the passenger compartment
filter cartridge becoming clogged.
– No cold air is being produced.
Check that the controls are set
correctly and that the fuses are
sound. Otherwise, switch off the
system.
Advice on use
In some situations, (air conditioning
off, air recirculation activated, venti-
lation speed at zero or low, etc.) you
may notice that condensation starts
to form on the windows and wind -
screen.
If there is condensation, use the
“clear View” function to remove it,
then use the air conditioning in auto-
matic mode to stop it forming again.
If the condensation does not clear,
use the FAST programme.
Do not open the refriger -
ant fluid circuit. The fluid
may damage eyes or skin.
Note
Presence of water under the ve -
hicle. After prolonged use of the air
conditioning system, it is normal for
water to be present under the vehi-
cle. This is caused by condensation.

These systems operate with the igni -
tion on or off, until one of the front doors
is opened (limited to about 3 minutes).
From the driver’s seat, use switch:
1 for the driver’s side;
2 for the front passenger side;
3 and 5 for the rear passenger win-
dows.
From the passenger seats, use
switch 6.
note on the front windows: if the
window detects resistance when clos -
ing (e.g. fingers, branch of a tree, etc.)
it stops and then lowers again by a few
centimetres.

Electric windows
Press or pull the switch to raise or lower
a window to the desired height (the rear
windows do not open fully);
one-touch mode
This mode works in addition to the
operation of the electric windows de -
scribed previously. It may relate only to
the front windows.
Briefly press or pull the window switch
fully: the window is fully lowered or

Safety of rear occupants
The driver can disable op -
eration of the electric win -
dows and, depending on
the vehicle, the rear doors, by
pressing switch 4 . The indicator
light integrated in the switch lights
up to confirm that the locks have
been activated.
Driver’s responsibility
Never leave your vehicle with the
RENAULT card or key inside, and
never leave a child (or a pet) un -
supervised, even for a short while.
They may pose a risk to themselves
or to others by starting the engine,
activating equipment such as the
electric windows or by locking the
doors. If any part of the body be -
comes trapped, reverse the direc -
tion of the window immediately by
pressing the relevant switch.
Risk of serious injury.
Avoid resting any objects against
a half-open window: there is a risk
that the electric window could be
damaged.
