Automatic RENAULT MEGANE 2017 4.G Repair Manual

3.19
Operating faults
As a general rule, contact your ap-
proved dealer in the event of an oper-
ating fault.
– Reduction in de-icing, demisting or air conditioning performance.
This may be caused by the passen-
ger compartment filter cartridge be-
coming clogged.
– No cold air is being produced .
Check that the controls are set cor-
rectly and that the fuses are sound.
Otherwise, switch off the system.
Presence of water under the
vehicle
After prolonged use of the air condi-
tioning system, it is normal for water
to be present under the vehicle. This is
caused by condensation.
AIR CONDITIONING: information and advice on use
Do not open the refriger-
ant fluid circuit. The fluid
may damage eyes or skin.
Fuel consumption
You will normally notice an increase in
fuel consumption (especially in town)
when the air conditioning is operating.
For vehicles fitted with air conditioning
with no automatic mode, switch off the
system when it is not required.
Advice for reducing consumption
and helping to preserve the environ-
ment
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.
Advice on use
In some situations, (air conditioning
off, air recirculation activated, ventila-
tion speed at zero or low, etc.) you may
notice that condensation starts to form
on the windows and windscreen.
If there is condensation, use the “Clear
View” function to remove it, then use
the air conditioning in automatic mode
to stop it forming again.
Maintenance
Refer to the Maintenance Document
for your vehicle for the inspection fre-
quency.
Do not add anything to the
vehicle’s ventilation circuit
(for example, to remove
bad odours).
There is a risk of damage or of
fire.

3.22
ELECTRIC WINDOWS (2/2)
Operating faults
In case of a fault when closing a
window, the system reverts to normal
mode: pull the switch as many times as
necessary until the window closes com-
pletely, hold the switch (still on the clo-
sing side) for around one second, then
completely lower then raise the window
to reset the system.
If necessary, contact an approved
Dealer.
When closing the windows,
ensure that no part of the
body (arm, hand, etc.) is
protruding from the vehicle.
Risk of serious injury.
One-touch mode
This mode works in addition to the ope-
ration of the electric windows described
previously.
Briefly press or pull the window switch
fully: the window is fully lowered or
raised. Pressing the switch again stops
the window moving.
Note: if the window detects resistance
when closing (e.g.: branch of a tree,
etc.) it stops and then lowers again by a
few centimetres.
Remote control window closing
(vehicles with 4 one-touch electric win-
dows).
When you lock the doors from the out-
side, press the locking button on the
RENAULTcard twice in quick suc-
cession, or on the driver’s door in
hands-free mode, and all the windows
will close automatically (and, depend-
ing on the vehicle, the sunroof).
It is recommended that the user only
operates the system when the vehi-
cle can be seen clearly and no one is
inside.

ELECTRIC SUNROOF (2/3)
Special features

a tree, etc.), it stops and then moves
back a few centimetres.
After closing the sunroof by remote
control, pressing button 4 allows the
sunroof to return to its previous posi-
tion.
Closing the sunroof by
remote control
If you press the locking button on
the card twice in quick succession
RENAULT,, the windows and the elec-
tric sunroof will close automatically.
It is recommended that the user only
operates the system when the vehi-
cle can be seen clearly and no one is
inside.
If the vehicle is equipped
with this function, this action
will activate deadlocking.
Refer to the information on
“RENAULT card: deadlocking" or
"Radiofrequency remote control:
deadlocking" in section 1.

User precautions
– Before opening the tailgate, ensure that the surrounding space is suffi-
cient to permit operation of the tail-
gate. Otherwise, stop the movement
of the boot lid before it makes con-
tact.
– The system may experience tempo- rary difficulties if one of the sensors
integrated in the rear of the bumper
is obscured (by dirt, mud, snow, grit-
ting salt, etc.). Clean the sensors. If
there is still a problem, contact an
approved dealer.
Note: in very cold weather conditions,
the automatic opening may not work if
the tailgate seals are frozen.

the luggage compartment
lid is prohibited. To install a carrying
device on your vehicle, contact an
Approved Dealer.

BONNET (2/2)
Closing the bonnet
Check that nothing has been left in the
engine compartment.
To close the bonnet again, hold the
bonnet in the middle and guide it down,
allowing a 30 cm gap before it is closed,
then release it. It will latch automatically
under its own weight.
Ensure that the bonnet is
properly locked.
Check that nothing is pre-
venting the catch from lock-
ing (gravel, cloth, etc.).
After carrying out any work
in the engine compart-
ment, check that nothing
has been left behind (cloth,
tools, etc.).
These may damage the engine or
cause a fire.
In the event of even a slight
impact involving the radia-
tor grille or bonnet, have the
bonnet lock checked by an
authorised dealer as soon as pos-
sible.

mum distance of 50 miles and not ex-
ceeding a speed of 15 mph (25 km/h).
