This Driver’s Handbook contains the information necessary:
– for you to familiarise yourself with your vehicle, to use it to its best\
advantage and to benefit fully from the all the func tions and
the technical developments it incorporates.
– to ensure that it always gives the best performance by following the sim\
ple, but comprehensive advice concerning regular main -
tenance.
– to enable you to deal quickly with minor faults not requiring specialist\
attention.
It is well worth taking a few minutes to read this handbook to familiari\
se yourself with the information and guidelines it cont ains
about the vehicle and its functions and new features. If certain points \
are still unclear, our Network technicians will be only too
pleased to provide you with any additional information.
The following symbol will help you when reading this handbook:
Welcome to your new vehicle
The descriptions of the models given in this handbook are based on the t\
echnical specifications at the time of writing. This hand-
book covers all items of equipment (both standard and optional) available for these models but whether or not these are
fitted to the vehicle depends on the version, options selected and the c\
ountry where the vehicle is sold.
This handbook may also contain information about items of equipment to b\
e introduced later in the model year.
Throughout the manual, the “approved Dealer” is your RENAULT Dealer. To indicate a hazard, danger or safety recommendation.
Enjoy driving your new vehicle.

EMERGENCY CALL (1/2)

A call is always made as follows:
– the call is set up with the emergency services;
– data related to the event is sent out;
– voice communication with the emer- gency services;
– if necessary, emergency assistance is called.
Emergency call has two modes:
– automatic mode;
– manual mode;
1 Phone network availability light: on if
network available (green light), off if
network not available;
2 Automatic mode warning light;
3 SOS switch;
4 Microphone;
5 Speaker.
If the vehicle is equipped with it, the
emergency call is a system that allows
the emergency services to be called
automatically or manually in the event
of an accident or illness, in order to
reduce the time they take to arrive on
the scene.
If you use the emergency call func-
tion to report an accident which you
have witnessed, this implies stopping
where traffic conditions allow to allow
the emergency services to locate your
vehicle and therefore the location of the
reported accident.
Use emergency call only in
the event of an emergency
if you are involved in or wit-
ness an accident or if you
feel ill.In the event of an accident,
it is recommended that you
stay close to the vehicle so
that you can respond to the
call centre if necessary.

1.18
EMERGENCY CALL (2/2)
Check the condition of the bat-
tery, its service life is approximately
4 years (warning light 1 lights up in
red to inform you).
Consult an approved dealer.

Manual mode
The emergency call is triggered by
pressing switch 3.
Emergency call has two modes:
– in normal mode by pressing switch 3
for more than 3 seconds;
– in panic mode by pressing switch 3
five times in less than 10 seconds.
Automatic mode
When warning light 2 is on, this indi-
cates that the automatic system is ac-
tivated.
With ignition switched on, the emer-
gency call is triggered automatically in
the event of an accident with airbag ac-
tivated. Data are transmitted to the call
centre (vehicle identification plate, time
of the call, vehicle position, direction of
the vehicle, etc).
The automatic emergency call is acti-
vated by default and can be disabled
on request of the user at an Approved
Dealer. In the event of unintended operation, it
is possible to cancel the call by press-
ing switch 3
for 2 seconds before the
call to the call centre is set up.
Once a call is established, only the call
centre can end the call.
Operating faults
In some cases, the emergency call
function may not work:
– no fault detected and phone network
unavailable;
– low battery;
– ...
When the system detects an operat-
ing fault, the warning light 1 turns red;
consult an Approved Dealer as soon as
possible.

DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (1/5)
1
Gear change indicator 2
Depending on the vehicle, to obtain op-
timum consumption levels, a warning
light on the instrument panel lets you
know the best time to move up or down
a gear:
Š or + : move up a gear;
‰ or - : move down a gear.
If you regularly follow this indicator, you
will reduce your vehicle’s fuel consump-
tion.
Fuel consumption is accredited in ac-
cordance with a standard regulatory
method. Identical for all manufactur-
ers, this enables vehicles to be com-
pared with one another. Consumption
in real time depends on vehicle usage
conditions, the equipment fitted and the
user’s driving style. To optimise fuel
consumption, please refer to the follow-
ing advice.
Depending on the vehicle, you will have
various functions which enable you to
lower your fuel consumption:
– the rev counter;
– gear change indicator;
– the driving style indicator;
– the journey record and eco-driving
advice via the multimedia screen;
– ECO mode.
If fitted on the vehicle, the navigation
system provides additional information.
On the instrument panel
The information display can be organ-
ised and customised based on the in-
strument panel customisation style se-
lected from the multimedia screen.
Rev counter with ECO zone 1
Driving in the ECO zone helps you op-
timise fuel consumption under most cir-
cumstances.

2.23
DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (3/5)
ECO mode
ECO mode is a function which opti-
mises fuel consumption. This acts on
all power consuming elements (engine
power, switching gears for vehicles
fitted with an automatic gearbox, heat-
ing and/or air conditioning, etc.).
Limiting acceleration enables low fuel
consumption in urban and surrounding
areas. When ECO modeis in use, it is
normal to notice a change in heating
level.
Activating the function
The function can be activated:
– by pressing switch 4.
– Depending on the vehicle, from the navigation menu on the multimedia
screen (please refer to the multime-
dia instructions).
The warning light
 comes on on
the instrument panel to confirm activa-
tion. Disabling the function
Press switch 4.
The warning light
 goes out on
the instrument panel to confirm deac-
tivation.
While driving, it is possible to leave the
ECO mode temporarily in order to im-
prove engine performance.
For this, depress the accelerator pedal
firmly and fully.
ECO mode is reactivated when you
take pressure off the accelerator pedal.

2.24
– Do not overrev the engine in the in-termediate gears.
You should always use the highest gear possible.
– 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 flat ground. Keep
your foot in the same position on the
accelerator pedal.
– Double declutching and accelerating before switching off are unnecessary
in modern vehicles.
Driving advice, Eco-driving
Behaviour
– 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.
– Dynamic driving with a lot of frequent acceleration and braking is expen-
sive on fuel in comparison to the time
saved.
DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (4/5)
Obstructions to the driver
On the driver’s side, only
use mats suitable for the
vehicle, attached with the
pre-fitted components, and check
the fitting regularly. Do not lay one
mat on top of another.
There is a risk of wedging the
pedals
– Bad weather, flooded roads:
Do not drive through
floods if the water is
above the lower edge of
the wheel rims.
