METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (2/4)
Load limiter
Above a certain severity of impact, this
mechanism is used to limit the force of
the belt against the body so that it is at
an acceptable level.
Air bags for driver and front
passenger
Fitted to the driver and passenger side.
The presence of this equipment is in-
dicated by the word “Air bag” on the
steering wheel and dashboard (air bag
zone A) and, depending on the vehicle,
a symbol on the lower section of the
windscreen.
Each air bag system consists of:
– an air bag and gas generator fitted on the steering wheel for the driver
and in the dashboard for the front
passenger;
– an electronic unit for system monitor- ing which controls the gas generator
electrical trigger system;
– remote sensors;
– a single warning light
å on the
instrument panel.
A
The air bag system uses
pyrotechnic principles. This
explains why, when the air
bag inflates, it will gener-
ate heat, produce smoke (this does
not mean that a fire is about to start)
and make a noise upon detonation.
In a situation where an air bag is
required, it will inflate immediately
and this may cause some minor, su-
perficial grazing to the skin or other
problems.

– E: minimum sensitivity
– F: maximum sensitivity
The higher the sensitivity, the quic-
ker the wipers will react and the
faster the wipe.
Note:
– the rain sensor is only intended
as a driving aid. In the event of re-
duced visibility, the driver should
manually activate the wipers. In
foggy weather or during snow-
falls, wiping is not automatically
triggered and remains under the
driver’s control;
Do not try to lift the wiper blades.
They cannot remain detached from
the windscreen. To replace the
blades, refer to Section 5: “Wiper
blades”.
In freezing or snowy weather, clear
the windscreen (including the cen-
tral area located behind the inte-
rior rear-view mirror) and the rear
screen before starting the wipers
(risk of motor overheating).

– in the event of temperatures
below zero, automatic wiping is
not activated when the vehicle
is started. It is automatically acti-
vated as soon as the vehicle ex-
ceeds a certain speed (5 mph
(8 km/h));
– do not activate automatic wiping
in dry weather;
– fully de-ice the windscreen before
activating automatic wiping.

WINDSCREEN WASH/WIPE (3/4)
Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction of the au-
tomatic wiping, the wiper is set to inter-
mittent wiping. Contact an authorised
dealer.
The operation of the rain sensor can be
disturbed in the event of: – damaged wiper blades; a screen
of water or traces left by a blade in
the sensor’s detection zone may
increase the response time of the
automatic wiper, or increase the
wiping frequency;
– a windscreen with any chip or
crack level with the sensor, or a
windscreen covered in dust, dirt,
insects, ice, the use of washing
wax and water-repellent chemi-
cals; the automatic wiping will
be less sensitive, or even unres-
ponsive.

D fast continuous wiping
Position C is accessible with the
ignition on. Positions B and D are
accessible only with the engine run-
ning.
Special note
When driving the vehicle, the wiping
speed slows down whenever the vehi-
cle stops. For example, fast wiping
speed will slow to normal wiping speed.
As soon as the vehicle moves off,
wiping will return to the speed originally
selected.
If stalk 1 is operated, it overrides and
cancels the automatic function.
Precautions
– In the event of ice, check whether the
blades are stuck to the windscreen
before operating the wiping mecha-
nism. If you activate the wipers while
the blades are stuck down with ice,
you may risk damaging both the
blade and the wiper motor.
– Do not activate the wipers on a dry
screen. This will lead to the prema-
ture wear or damage to the blades.
In the event of obstacles present
on the windscreen (dirt, snow, ice,
etc.), clean the windscreen (inclu-
ding the central area located behind
the interior rear-view mirror) and
the rear screen before starting the
wipers (risk of motor overheating).
If an object is preventing a blade
from moving, it may stop functio-
ning. Remove the obstacle and
reactivate the wiper using the wiper
stalk.
Before any action involving
the windscreen (washing
the vehicle, de-icing,
cleaning the windscreen,
etc.) return stalk 1 to position A
(stop).
Risk of injury and/or damage.

ENVIRONMENT
Emissions
Your vehicle has been designed to
emit fewer greenhouse gases (CO2)
while in use, and therefore to consume
less fuel (eg. 140 g/km, equivalent to
5.3 l/100 km for a diesel vehicle).
Our vehicles are also equipped with a
particle filter system including a cata-
lytic converter, an oxygen sensor and
an active carbon filter (the latter pre-
vents vapour from the fuel tank being
released into the open air).
For certain diesel vehicles, this system
also has a particle filter to reduce the
volume of soot particles emitted.
Please make your own
contribution towards
protecting the environment
too
– Worn parts replaced in the course of routine vehicle maintenance (vehi-
cle battery, oil filter, air filter, batter-
ies, etc.) and oil containers (empty or
filled with used oil) must be disposed
of through specialist organisations. – At the end of the vehicle’s service
life, it should be sent to approved
centres to ensure that it is recycled.
– In all cases, comply with local legis- lation.
Recycling
Your vehicle is 85% recyclable and
95% recoverable.
To achieve these objectives, many of
the vehicle components have been de-
signed to enable them to be recycled.
The materials and structures have
been carefully designed to allow these
components to be easily removed and
reprocessed by specialist companies.
In order to preserve raw material re-
sources, this vehicle incorporates nu-
merous parts made from recycled plas-
tics or renewable materials (vegetable
or animal-derived materials such as
cotton or wool).
Your vehicle has been designed with
respect for the environment in mind for
its entire service life: during production,
use and at the end of its life.
This commitment is illustrated by the
Renault eco² signature.Manufacture
Your vehicle has been manufactured at
a factory which complies with a policy
to reduce the environmental impact
on the surrounding areas (reduction of
water and energy consumption, visual
and noise pollution, atmospheric emis-
sions and waste water; sorting and re-
using waste).

2.20
If the vehicle is equipped with the func-
tion, this system monitors the tyre pres-
sure.
Operating principleEach wheel (except for the emergency
spare wheel) has a sensor in the infla-
tion valve which periodically measures
the tyre pressure. The system informs
the driver via the on-board compu-
ter 1 that the tyres are sufficiently in-
flated and warns if they are underinfla-
ted or leaking. The warning light

comes on to warn the driver if the pres-
sure is too low. It should always be done after checking
the tyre pressure of all four tyres when
cold.
Tyre pressures must correspond to the
current usage of the vehicle (empty,
carrying a load, motorway driving, etc.).
With the ignition on:
– make short presses on the con-
trol 2 to select the tyre pressure
display (please refer to “On-board
Computer” in Section 1);
– press and hold (around three sec- onds) the control 2 to launch initial-
isation. Flashing tyres followed by
the message “Pressure ref ongoing”
means that the request to learn the
reference pressures has been taken
into account;
– reset can take several minutes of dri- ving.
This function is an addi-
tional driving aid.
However, the function does
not take the place of the
driver. It cannot, therefore, under
any circumstances replace the vi-
gilance or the responsibility of the
driver.
Check the tyre pressures, including
the emergency spare wheel, once a
month.
TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (1/4)
Resetting the standard level
for the tyre pressures
This should be done:
– when the standard tyre pressure needs to be changed to adapt to
usage conditions (empty, carrying a
load, motorway driving, etc.);
– after swapping wheels over (how- ever this practice is not recom-
mended);
– after changing a wheel.

« Adjust tyre pressure »
A wheel A shown in orange on the dis-
play 4 together with the warning light
 indicates a flat tyre.
Check and, if necessary, readjust the
pressures of the four wheels when cold.
While driving the warning light 3

goes off after a few minutes.
DisplayThe display 4 and the warning light 3
 on the instrument panel warns
you of any inflation faults (flat tyre,
puncture, system fault, etc.).

The sudden loss of pressure in a
tyre (burst tyre, etc.) cannot be de-
tected by the system.For your safety, the warning light ® requires you to stop immedia-
tely as soon as traffic conditions allow.
« Puncture »
The affected wheel A appears red on
the display 4 along with the warning
light 3
 and a beep. They indicate
that the affected wheel is punctured
or severely underinflated. Replace it
or contact an authorised dealer if it is
punctured. Top up the tyre pressure if
the wheel is deflated. This message
appears along with the
® warn-
ing light.
« Check tyre pressure sensors »
The affected wheel A is shown in white
on the display 4 together with the
flashing warning light 3
 and the
warning light
©. This message ap-
pears when at least one wheel fitted on
the vehicle does not have a sensor (e.g.
emergency spare wheel). Otherwise,
consult an authorised dealer.

2.22
Readjustment of tyre
pressures
The tyre pressures must be adjusted
when cold (please refer to the label lo-
cated on the edge of the driver’s door).
If the tyre pressures cannot be checked
when they are cold, the recommended
pressures should be increased by 0.2
to 0.3 bar (3 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.
Tyre repair product and
inflation kit
Because the valves are specially desi-
gned, only use equipment approved by
the approved network.
TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (3/4)
Interchangeability of wheels
If you want to swap the wheels round,
consult an authorised dealer to reinitia-
lise the system.
Each of the sensors incor-
porated in the valves 5 is
dedicated to a single wheel:
under no circumstances
should you swap the wheels, with-
out resetting the system.
There is a risk of incorrect informa-
tion which could have serious con-
sequences.

Replacing wheels/tyres
This system requires specific equip-
ment (wheels, tyres, hubcaps, etc.).
Contact an approved Dealer to fit new
tyres and to find out about available ac-
cessories compatible with the system
and available from your dealer net-
work: the use of any other accessory
could affect the correct operation of the
system or damage a sensor.
Emergency spare wheel
If the vehicle is equipped with an emer-
gency spare wheel, it will not have a
sensor. When it is fitted to the vehicle,
the message “Check tyre pressure sen-
sors” is displayed on the instrument
panel.
Changing a wheel
The system may take several minutes depending on use for the new
wheel positions and pressures to be recognised; check the tyre pres-
sures after all operations.
