trip mileage counters
For example, to reset the trip
mileage, the display must be set to
“trip mileage”.
Automatic resetting
The trip mileage recorders will b
reset automatically when the
maximum capacity of any of the
memories is exceeded.3Display selection key
Keep pressing key3briefly to
show the following information
in sequence:
a) total mileage recorder,
b) trip mileage recorder,
c) fuel consumed,
d) average consumption,
e) current consumption,
f) estimated range,
g) distance covered,
h) average speed.
Display flashing
Consult a Renault Dealer if the
display flashes.
Interpreting certain values
displayed after resetting
The values showing average fuel
consumption, range and average
speed will become more stable and
reliable the further you travel since
thelasttimetheresetkeywas
pressed.For the first few miles after pressing
the reset button you will notice:
• that the range increases as you
travel. This is normal. Average
fuel consumption may decrease
when:
- The car stops accelerating.
- The engine reaches its operating
temperature (engine cold when
start button pressed).
- When you drive from a built up
area on to the open road.
Therefore, if the average fuel
consumption decreases, the range
will increase.
•Youmayalsonoticethatthe
average fuel consumption
increases when the vehicle is
stationary and the engine idling.
This is normal since the module
takes account of fuel used during
idling.

CLOCK AND EXTERNAL TEMPERATURE(continued)
If the electrical supply is cut
(battery disconnected, feed wire
broken, etc.), the clock must be
reset.
We advise that these settings are
not made when driving.External temperature
indicator
This information must
never be used as a detector
for ice. In effect, ice formation is
related to exposure, local
hygrometry and temperature. The
external temperature alone is not
sufficient to detect ice.For vehicles fitted with the
navigation system, refer to the
handbook supplied for information
on the special features of this
equipment.
