ASSISTED PARKING BRAKE (2/4)
Special cases
When the vehicle is on an incline or
when towing a trailer, pull handle 2 for
approximately 3 seconds to fully apply
the parking brake.
Note: if the vehicle is not immobilised
despite fully applying the parking brake,
due to the steepness of the incline, the
message “Stop vehicle” is displayed on
the instrument panel. The vehicle must
be parked elsewhere.Parking without applying the
parking brake
(if there is a risk of ice etc.):
– Stop the engine by pressing the
engine on/off button 1;
– engage a gear (on vehicles with
manual gearboxes) or shift the gear
lever into position P (on vehicles with
automatic transmissions);
– simultaneously depress the brake
pedal and press switch 2 until indica-
tor light 3 goes out.
When the driver’s door is opened, a
warning message will be displayed and
a beep sounds for around 5 seconds to
indicate that the parking brake has not
been applied.
Note: it is still possible to release the
parking brake as long as no door is
opened or closed and the vehicle is not
locked.

Operating faults
When indicator lights © and in cer-
tain cases
} light up on the instru-
ment panel accompanied by the mes-
sage “Check parking brake”, contact an
approved dealer urgently.
Versions with an automatic
gearbox
For safety reasons, automatic release
is deactivated when the driver’s door
is open or not shut properly and the
engine is running (in order to prevent
the vehicle from moving without the
driver). The “Release manually parking
brake” message appears on the instru-
ment panel when the driver depresses
the accelerator.
Never leave your vehicle
without moving the selec-
tor lever to position P or N.
This is because when the
vehicle is stationary with the engine
running and a gear engaged, the
vehicle may begin to move if you
accelerate.
There is a risk of accidents.
It is therefore essential to
immobilise the vehicle by
engaging first gear (manual
gearbox) or position P (au-
tomatic transmission). If the slope
requires it, chock the vehicle.
If no lights or sounds are
apparent, this indicates
a fault in the instrument
panel. This indicates that it
is essential to stop immediately
(as soon as traffic conditions
allow). Ensure that the vehicle is
correctly immobilised and contact
an approved Dealer.
Indicator light } flashes, accom-
panied by indicator lights
® and
© and the message “Parking
brake fault”: this indicates that it is es-
sential to stop immediately (as soon as
traffic conditions allow). Contact an ap-
proved Dealer.

ASSISTED PARKING BRAKE (4/4)
Indicator light © comes on accom-
panied by the message “Check park-
ing brake”. With the ignition on, simul-
taneously depress the brake pedal and
press switch 2. If they do not go off, do
not drive the vehicle and contact an ap-
proved dealer.

Never leave a child (or
animal) alone in the vehi-
cle with the RENAULT card
inside. They could acci-
dentally release the parking brake
which would enable the vehicle to
roll away.
The parking brake can be released. To
release manually:
– remove the luggage compartment
carpet and the emergency spare
wheel cover;
– insert wheelbrace 4 into loop 6 and,
for vehicles without amplifier 7, press
on housing 5;
– pull (movement B) or push (move-
ment C) the top of wheelbrace 4
until the parking brake is heard to re-
lease.
This control cannot be used to reap-
ply the parking brake.
Before releasing the park-
ing brake manually, it is es-
sential to immobilise the ve-
hicle by engaging first gear
(manual gearbox) or shifting to po-
sition P (automatic transmission). If
the slope requires it, chock the vehi-
cle. If it is not possible to immobilise
the vehicle, do not operate the lever
and contact an approved Dealer.
A reminder can be found on the
label in area A.

Operation
N With the gear lever 2 in position P,
switch on the ignition.
To move out of position P, you must de-
press the brake pedal before pressing
the unlocking button 1.
With the foot on the brake pedal (warn-
ing light
c on display A 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.

Driving in automatic mode
Select position D. In most traffic con-
ditions, you will not have to touch the
gear selector lever again: the gears will
change automatically at the right time
and at the most suitable engine speed
because the automatic system takes
into account the vehicle load and road
contour and adjusts itself to the particu-
lar driving style you have chosen.
Economical driving
When driving, always leave the lever
in position D, keeping the accelerator
pedal lightly depressed to ensure auto-
matic gear changes at a lower engine
speed.
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.

AUTOMATIC OR CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (2/3)
Driving in manual mode
With the selector lever in position D,
move the lever to the left. Shifting the
lever repeatedly allows you to change
gears manually:
– backwards to shift down the gears;
– forwards to shift up the gears.
The gear selected is displayed on the
instrument panel.
Special cases
Under certain driving conditions (e.g.
engine protection, or electronic stability
control (ESC) operational etc.) the au-
tomatic system may change gear auto-
matically.
Likewise, to prevent incorrect manoeu-
vres, a gear change may be refused by
the automatic system: in this case the
gear display flashes for a few seconds
as a warning.
Special circumstances
– If the bends and road surface do
not allow you to stay in automatic
mode (e.g. in the mountains), we
recommend that you change to
manual mode.
This will prevent repeated gear
changes when climbing and will
enable engine braking on long de-
scents.
– In very cold weather, to avoid stall-
ing the engine, start the engine and
wait a few seconds before moving
the lever from position P or N to po-
sition D or R.
– Vehicles not fitted with traction
control: to avoid wheelspin when
starting on a slippery or low grip sur-
face, change to manual mode and
select second gear before moving
off.
Parking the vehicle
When the vehicle is stopped, move the
lever to position P while keeping your
foot on the brake pedal: the gearbox is
in neutral and the drive wheels are me-
chanically locked by the driveshaft.
Depending on the vehicle, apply the
handbrake or check that the elec-
tronic parking brake is on (refer to
the information on the Parking brake in
Section 2).
In very cold weather, the system may prevent the gears from being shifted in
manual mode until the gearbox reaches the right temperature.
An impact to the under-
side of the vehicle while
manoeuvring (e.g.: strik-
ing a post, raised kerb or
other street furniture) may result in
damage to the vehicle (e.g.: defor-
mation of an axle).
To avoid any risk of accident, have
your vehicle checked by an ap-
proved Dealer.

AUTOMATIC OR CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (3/3)
Operating faults
– when driving, if the “Check auto
gearbox” message appears on the
instrument panel, it indicates a fault.
Contact your approved Dealer as
soon as possible.
– when driving, if the message “Auto
gearbox overheating” appears on
the instrument panel, shift the gear
lever into position N, as soon as pos-
sible.
Contact your approved dealer as
soon as possible.
– If a vehicle with an automatic
gearbox breaks down, refer to the
information on “Towing” in Section 5.
Special note for vehicles equipped
with continuously variable
transmissions:
Under certain driving conditions at high
speeds, the gearbox may temporarily
limit the maximum engine speed. This
is normal.When setting off, if the lever is locked
in position P even though you are de-
pressing the brake pedal and pressing
unlocking button 1, the lever can be re-
leased manually. To do this, unclip the
cover 9 at the base of the lever. Then,
simultaneously press:
– press the button located under
cover 5 (using a flat-blade screw-
driver or similar tool);
– depress the brake pedal;
– press button 1.
Then shift the lever.

2WD vehicles
Vehicles fitted with an automatic transmission or continuously vari-able transmission.
With the ignition off, the gearbox is no longer lubricated. If it is not, the vehi-cle must be transported on a trailer or be towed with the front wheels off the ground.
If the lever is stuck in P, even though you are de-pressing the brake pedal, the lever can be released manually.
To do this, first remove the cover 2 on the left-hand side of the gear lever.
While depressing the brake pedal, shift the gear lever into neutral (N) and simultaneously press the button 1 on the lever and on the button under the cover 2.
